Abstract X‐ray imaging is the most widely used diagnostic method in modern medicine and several advanced forms of this technology have recently emerged. Iodinated molecules barium sulfate suspensions are clinically approved contrast agents used. However, these existing provide limited information, suboptimal for new techniques developing safety concerns. Thus, over past 15 years, there has been a rapid growth development nanoparticles as agents. Nanoparticles desirable features such high payloads, potential long circulation times, tunable physicochemical properties. also range biomedical applications disease treatment, targeted imaging, cell tracking. In review, we discuss principles behind generation introduce types modalities, well elements chemical compositions that suitable novel agent development. We focus on progress nanoparticle developed to be renally clearable, circulating, theranostic, targeted, or feature conjunction with newly multi‐energy computed tomography mammographic technologies. Finally, offer perspectives current limitations emerging research topics expectations future field.

Electroconductive hydrogels are very attractive candidates for accelerated spinal cord injury (SCI) repair because they match the electrical and mechanical properties of neural tissue. However, electroconductive hydrogel implantation can potentially aggravate inflammation, hinder its efficacy. Bone marrow stem cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-exosomes) have shown immunomodulatory tissue regeneration effects, therefore, tissue-like loaded with BMSC-exosomes developed synergistic treatment SCI. These exosomes-loaded modulate microglial M2 polarization via NF-κB pathway, synergistically enhance neuronal oligodendrocyte differentiation cells (NSCs) while inhibiting astrocyte differentiation, also increase axon outgrowth PTEN/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. Furthermore, combined significantly decrease number CD68-positive microglia, local NSCs recruitment, promote axonal regeneration, resulting in significant functional recovery at early stage an SCI mouse model. Hence, findings this study demonstrate that combination is a promising therapeutic strategy repair.

Abstract Exosomes are extracellular vesicles secreted by various cells, mainly composed of lipid bilayers without organelles. In recent years, an increasing number researchers have focused on the use exosomes for drug delivery. Targeted delivery in body is a promising method treating many refractory diseases such as tumors and Alzheimer's disease (AD). Finding suitable carrier has become popular research today. studies, mesenchymal stem cells (MSC-EXOs) been broadly researched due to their immune properties, tumor-homing elastic properties. While MSC-EXOs apparent advantages, some unresolved problems also exist. This article reviews studies delivery, summarizes characteristics MSC-EXOs, introduces primary production purification methods loading provide solutions existing suggestions future studies.

Traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI) is a devastating condition that often associated with significant loss of function and/or permanent disability. The pathophysiology SCI complex and occurs in two phases. First, the mechanical damage from trauma causes immediate acute cell dysfunction death. Then, secondary mechanisms further propagate death over course days, weeks, or even months. Among mechanisms, inflammation has been shown to be key determinant severity significantly worsens functional outcomes. Thus, addition surgical management SCI, selectively targeting immune response following could substantially decrease progression improve patient In order develop such therapies, detailed molecular understanding timing necessary. Recently, several studies have mapped cytokine/chemokine proliferation patterns SCI. this review, we examine underlying assess both current future therapies including pharmaceutical stem therapy, exciting potential extracellular vesicle therapy.
