Photoinduced site-selective alkenylation of alkanes and aldehydes with aryl alkenes

Dehydrogenative alkenylation of C-H bonds is an atom-economical approach to prepare more complex olefins. Here, the authors use a combination of decatungstate and a cobaloxime catalyst for the photocatalytic dehydrogenative alkenylation of alkanes and aliphatic aldehydes with aryl alkenes.

Inhalable liposomal delivery of osimertinib and DNA for treating primary and metastasis lung cancer

The dissatisfied delivery efficiency of drugs to lungs and other metastatic sites limit the corresponding therapeutic efficacy. Here this group reports an inhalable surfactant-based nanoliposome system to co-deliver Osimertinib and DNA plasmid which is capable of fusing into pulmonary surfactant, penetrating through physiological barriers and targeted accumulating in lung tissues.

De novo strategy with engineering anti-Kasha/Kasha fluorophores enables reliable ratiometric quantification of biomolecules

Fluorescent probes are used in a number of fields but suffer from a lack of quantifiable results due to environmental effects. Here, the authors report on a dual-emission probe which can be used to detect the amount of probe present and the emission from detection applications to allow for quantification.

Spatiotemporal control of cell–cell reversible interactions using molecular engineering

Reversible manipulation of cell-cell interactions has potential applications in basic research and cell-based therapy. Here the authors control cell-cell adhesion in vitrowith light, by modifying the surface sugars of cells to display β-cyclodextrin, which recognises one isoform of light-isomerizable azobenzene linkers.
