Abstract The colon tumor microenvironment has a high concentration of H 2 S and glutathione, which is highly immunosuppressive adverse to multiple therapeutic methodologies such as ferroptosis. Here, an engineered microbial nanohybrid based on Escherichia coli ( E. ) Cu O nanoparticles specific therapy immunosuppression reversion reported. as‐prepared @Cu hybrid can accumulate in sites upon intravenous injection, convert x by consuming the endogenous S, exhibits strong photothermal conversion at near‐infrared II (NIR II) biological window. Furthermore, able induce cellular ferroptosis cuproptosis through inactivation glutathione peroxidase 4 aggregation dihydrolipoamide S‐acetyltransferase, respectively. Photothermal‐enhanced ferroptosis/cuproptosis achieved reverses tumors triggering dendritic cell maturation (about 30%) T activation 50% CD8 + cells). Concerted with immune checkpoint blockade, inhibit growth abscopal NIR illumination. Overall, designed achieve tumor‐specific photothermal‐enhanced reversion, showing promise precise future clinical translation.

Ca2+ and Mg2+ are essential nutrients, deficiency can cause serious health problems. Thus, lack of lead to osteoporosis, with incidence rising both in absolute age-specific terms, while is associated type II diabetes. Prevention via vitamin D or estrogen controversial, the bioavailability from supplements significantly lower than that milk products. Problems likely increase as populations age number people on vegan diets surges. Developing new therapeutic strategies requires a better understanding molecular mechanisms involved absorption by intestinal epithelia. The vitamin-D dependent, active pathway for uptake upper small intestine involving TRPV6 highly efficient but only accounts about 20% total uptake. Instead, most thought occur passive paracellular diffusion across ileum, although sufficiently high luminal concentrations difficult achieve.. Interestingly, colon caecum also have considerable capacity Mg2+, which unclear. Intriguingly, stimulating fermentation prebiotics enhances colonic absorption, rise ~10% ~30% total. Notably, releases protons, inhibits channels selective (TRPV6 TRPM6/TRPM7). Conversely, non-selective cation channel TRPV3 stimulated intracellular acidification numerous herbal compounds. Spicy, fiber-rich food, traditionally consumed many cultures, might enhance this pathway.

Due to the non-specific distribution of drugs in body and low concentration at tumor site traditional chemotherapy, there are challenges associated with significant side effects resistance. Therefore, a drug delivery system (DDS) urgently needs be developed that can precisely target tumors. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) possess advantageous characteristics derived from organic inorganic materials, including small particle size, large specific surface area, high loading capacity, adjustable structure pore as well ease modification. Consequently, MOFs offer unique advantages for designing active targeting, passive stimulus-responsive targeting strategies have become hot topic current research on tumor-targeted systems.
