JACS | New Direction for ADC: Triggerable Probiotic-Drug Conjugates

Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic, recurrent inflammatory bowel disease that not only significantly reduces the quality of life for patients but also sharply increases the risk of colorectal cancer (CAC) due to prolonged inflammation. Currently, oral probiotics are considered a promising biological therapy for UC due to their advantages in regulating gut microbiota and … Read more

Recently, researchers from Shanghai University and The Chinese University of Hong Kong (Shenzhen) collaborated to develop a novel type of magneto-thermal hydrogel swarms. Through magnetic-thermal cooperative regulation, the hydrogel swarms can remotely heat magnetic particles using a magnetic field; when magnetic heating is required, they switch to a high-frequency oscillating magnetic field, causing the material … Read more
