Abstract Immunotherapy shows promising therapeutic potential for long‐term tumor regression. However, current cancer immunotherapy displays a low response rate due to insufficient immunogenicity of the cells. To address these challenges, herein, intracellular‐acidity‐activatable dynamic nanoparticles eliciting by inducing ferroptosis cells are engineered. The engineered integrating an ionizable block copolymer and acid‐liable phenylboronate ester (PBE) covalent bonds tumor‐specific delivery...
Prefabricated building projects (PBPs) have gained worldwide popularity over the past few decades because of their various benefits.

Abstract The 2013 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to the authors of first two publications utilizing concept combined quantum mechanical and molecular (QM/MM) methods. In celebrating this great event computational chemistry, we review early development QM/MM techniques associated events that took place through mid‐1990s. We also offer some prospects for future macromolecular systems.

Abstract Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is highly lethal and resistant to conventional therapies, including chemo‐, radio‐, immunotherapy. In this study, it first determined that a combination of dihydroartemisinin (DHA) RSL‐3 (a glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) inhibitor) markedly induced ferroptosis PDAC tumor cells. A mechanistic study revealed DHA can react with iron ions generate carbon radicals deplete intracellular glutathione, thereby cumulatively triggering the lipid...
Dry eye disease (DED), a complex ocular surface with high prevalence rate, is associated corneal injury, excess oxidative stress and inflammation. Current therapeutic strategies, including artificial tears anti-inflammatory agents, are unable to address all the deleterious factors or achieve clinical cure due their temporary side effects. Here, we prepared multiple-functional eyedrop based on deposition of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) reduced by ascorbic acid (AA) onto exosomal phospholipid...
Timing calibration is essential for positron emission tomography (PET) system as it enhances timing resolution to improve image quality. Traditionally, sources are employed calibration. However, the photons emitted by these travel in opposite directions, necessitating that positrons annihilate at multiple locations collect coincidence data across a greater number of lines response (LORs). To overcome this limitation, study proposes method utilising a60Co point source. The60Co source emits...
Improving the coincidence time resolution (CTR) of time-of-flight positron emission tomography (TOF-PET) systems to achieve a higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) gain or even direct imaging (dPEI) is paramount importance for many advanced new clinical applications PET imaging.

In many areas, such as plains and gently undulating terrain, easy‐to‐measure soil‐forming factors landform vegetation do not co‐vary with soil conditions across space to the level that they can be effectively used in digital mapping. A challenging problem is how develop a new environmental variable co‐varies spatial variation under these situations. This study examined idea change patterns (dynamic feedback patterns) of land surface, those captured daily by remote sensing images during short...
