Maxillofacial injuries that may cause severe functional and aesthetic damage require effective and immediate management due to continuous exposure to diverse microbial populations. Moreover, drug resistance, biofilm formation, and oxidative stress significantly impede timely bacterial removal and immune function, making the exploration of advanced materials for maxillofacial wound healing an appealing yet highly challenging task. Herein, a near-infrared photothermal sterilization agent was designed, encapsulated with liposomes and coated with ascorbic acid known for its antioxidant and immune-regulatory functions.

Microglia, the parenchymal macrophage of the central nervous system, serve crucial remodeling functions throughout development. Microglia are transcriptionally heterogenous, suggesting that distinct microglial states confer discrete roles. Currently, little is known about how dynamic these states are, the cues that promote them, or how they impact microglial function.

Metastatic breast cancer (BC) can recur years after initial treatments and arise from quiescent disseminated tumor cells (QDTC) that resist conventional therapies. To date there are no treatments to target QDTCs. Previously, the fibrotic-like niche (FLN) enriched with Type I collagen (Col-I) was shown to be required for the switch of QDTC to overt metastases.

Mounting an immune response is a nutritionally demanding process that requires the systemic redistribution of energy stores towards the immune system. This is facilitated by cytokine-induced insulin resistance, which simultaneously promotes the mobilization of lipids and carbohydrates while limiting their consumption in immune-unrelated processes, such as development, growth, and reproduction. However, this adaptation also restricts the availability of nutrients to vital organs, which must then be sustained by alternative fuels.

Emodin (ED), as a traditional Chinese medicine, possesses a variety of biological activities and is also one of natural sonosensitizer. Whether emodin could react with titanium dioxide to enhance the sonodynamic activity for safely treating osteomyelitis remains to be explored. Hence, an ED-conjugated Mn-doped titanium dioxide (TOM) nanorod array is designed and prepared on titanium to eliminate bacterial infections under ultrasound (US) treatment.
