Article Abstract
Invited for the cover of this issue is the group of Andrew D. Hamilton and Sam Thompson at the University of Oxford (UK). The image depicts a new class of conformationally constrained β-strand mimetics mediating the interaction between two subunits of a protein that controls transcription.

[2,1]-Azaboranaphthalenes represent unique boron-nitrogen (BN) isosteres of naphthalenes, attracting interest for the development of molecules with enhanced therapeutic potency. The existing synthetic strategies are generally two-component reactions with harsh conditions. Here we report an organocatalysed three-component modular synthesis of ring-fused BN isosteres and BN-2,1-azaboranaphthalenes following ring expansion of unstrained cyclic ketones (n = 4-8) via Wolff-type rearrangement.

A series of unsymmetrically substituted BODIPY dyes featuring fused benzo- or naphtho-fragments on one pyrrolic unit were synthesized from the corresponding pyrrolic precursors. The synthetic route was optimized using a modular approach based on the condensation of formylpyrroles with alkylpyrroles, enabling the identification of precursor combinations that minimize byproduct formation and improve preparative yields. The resulting benzo- and naphtho-fused BODIPYs display intense fluorescence in the red region, with emission maxima spanning 590-680 nm and fluorescence quantum yields ranging from 0.

Drug-induced hepatotoxicity (DIH), characterized by diverse phenotypes and complex mechanisms, remains a critical challenge in drug discovery. To systematically decode this diversity and complexity, we propose a multi-dimensional computational framework integrating molecular structure analysis with disease pathogenesis exploration, focusing on drug-induced intrahepatic cholestasis (DIIC) as a representative DIH subtype. First, a graph-based modularity maximization algorithm identified DIIC risk genes, forming a DIIC module and eight disease pathogenesis clusters.

Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanosized vesicles naturally secreted by Gram-negative bacteria and represent a promising platform for vaccine development. OMVs possess inherent immunostimulatory properties due to the presence of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), providing self-adjuvanting capabilities and the ability to elicit both innate and adaptive immune responses. This review outlines the advantages of OMVs over traditional vaccine strategies, including their safety, modularity, and the potential for genetic engineering to enable targeted antigen delivery.

The development of controllable nanoplatforms with disease-specific responsiveness and programmable therapeutic functions is vital for treating complex cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis. Herein, we present an intelligent, next-generation nanoplatform (HALA@AgS) that integrates enzyme-responsive dual-drug delivery with NIR-II imaging-guided photothermal therapy (PTT), enabling triple-stimuli synergy of enzyme, light, and multi-drug co-activation. This modular design enables stable nanoassemblies with high drug-loading capacity and selective disassembly in enzyme-rich plaque microenvironments, achieving controlled dual-drug release exceeding 80 % within 72 h.
