Abstract Near infrared energy remains untapped toward the maneuvering of entire solar spectrum harvesting for fulfilling nuts and bolts hydrogen production. We report use Au@Cu 7 S 4 yolk@shell nanocrystals as dual-plasmonic photocatalysts to achieve remarkable production under visible near illumination. Ultrafast spectroscopic data reveal prevalence long-lived charge separation states both excitation. Combined with advantageous features nanostructures, achieves a peak quantum yield 9.4% at...
The escape of bladder cancer from immunosurveillance causes monotherapy to exhibit poor efficacy; therefore, designing a multifunctional nanoparticle that boosts programmed cell death and immunoactivation has potential as treatment strategy. Herein, we developed facile one-pot coprecipitation reaction fabricate cluster-structured nanoparticles (CNPs) assembled Fe3O4 iron chlorophyll (Chl/Fe) photosensitizers. This nanoassembled CNP, theranostic agent, could perform red-NIR fluorescence...
Lung cancer is considered among the deadliest cancers with a poor prognosis. Au@PG nanoparticles (NPs) are gold (Au)-based NPs featuring polyaniline-based glyco structure (PG) generated from polymerization of ortho-nitrophenyl-β-d-galactopyranoside (ONPG) promising M1 macrophage polarization activity, resulting in tumor remodeling and cold to hot microenvironment, which promotes cytotoxic T cell response inhibition. The combination anti-programmed death protein 1 (PD-1) therapy improved...

In vitro...
The discovery of different binding receptors to allow rapid and high-sensitivity detection via a noninvasive urine test has become the goal for urothelial carcinoma (UC) diagnosis surveillance. In this study, we developed new screening membrane receptor platform bladder cancer cells by integrating surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) with 4-aminothiophenol (4-ATP)-modified AuAg nanohollows upon NIR laser excitation. have an absorption band at ∼630 nm, slightly off-resonance 785 nm...
Cancer cells have a high demand for sugars and express diverse carbohydrate receptors, offering opportunities to improve delivery with multivalent glycopolymer materials. However, effectively delivering glycopolymers tumors while inhibiting cancer cell activity, altering cellular metabolism, reversing tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) polarization overcome immunosuppression remains challenging area of research due the lack reagents capable simultaneously achieving these objectives. Here,...
The facile and straightforward fabrication of NIR-responsive theranostic materials with high biocompatibility is still an unmet need for nanomedicine applications.
