Abstract Dry eye disease (DED) is a multifaceted ocular surface disorder that significantly impacts patients’ daily lives and imposes substantial economic burden on society. Oxidative stress, induced by the overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), critical factor perpetuating inflammatory cycle in DED. Effectively scavenging ROS essential to impede progression In this study, boronophenylalanine‐ containing polydopamine (PDA‐PBA) nanoparticles are developed loaded with melatonin (MT), which blended poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) create drops PVA/ PDA‐PBA@MT (PPP@MT). vitro vivo studies demonstrate PPP@MT exhibits dual functionalities reducing production downregulating pathways, thereby preserving mitochondrial integrity further inhibiting programmed cell death. Following treatment, tear secretion, corneal structure, number goblet cells markedly restored mouse model dry eye, indicating therapeutic efficacy agent. Collectively, PPP@MT, characterized minimal side effects favorable bioavailability, offers promising insights for management DED other ROS‐mediated disorders.

Here REDOX equilibrium utmost importance. This controlled by either directly or indirectly via bacterial-derived metabolites. A balanced microbiome sorts for stable balance, whereas dysbiosis destabilizes this equilibrium.

Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition in which dysregulated immune response contributes to the acute intestinal inflammation of colon. Current clinical therapies often exhibit limited efficacy and undesirable side effects. Here, programmable nanomicelles were designed for treatment loaded with RU.521, an inhibitor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase-stimulator interferon genes (cGAS-STING) pathway. STING-inhibiting micelles (SIMs) comprise hyaluronic acid-stearic acid conjugates include reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive thioketal linker.

Abstract Due to the presence of spatial barriers, persistent bacteria, and excessive inflammation in bacteria biofilm‐infected wounds, current nanoplatforms cannot effectively address these issues simultaneously during therapeutic process. Herein, a novel biomimetic photothermal nanoplatform integrating silver polydopamine nanoparticles (Ag/PDAs) that can damage biofilms, kill bacterial persisters, reduce for wound treatment is presented. These findings reveal Ag/PDAs exhibit broad‐spectrum antimicrobial activity through direct membrane structure. Additionally, demonstrate potent conversion efficiency. When combined with near‐infrared (NIR) irradiation, disrupt structure biofilms synergistically eradicate resident bacteria. Furthermore, show remarkable anti‐inflammatory properties counteracting bacterium‐induced macrophage polarization. The vivo results confirm topical application significantly suppress Staphylococcus aureus wounds murine models, concurrently facilitating healing.

This systematic review explores role alleviating IBD. Among main findings are certain compounds, such as exopolysaccharides (EPS) short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), have demonstrated their ability neutralize ROS strengthen integrity barrier, thereby attenuating responses. These offer dual benefit mitigating oxidative stress rebalancing gut microbiota, often disrupted Evidence from preclinical clinical studies provides better understanding mechanisms involved effects these microbial antioxidants.
