Article Abstract
The traditional method to achieve ultralong organic phosphorescence (UOP) is to hybrid nπ* and ππ* configurations in appropriate proportion, which are contradictory to each other for improving efficiency and lifetime of phosphorescence. In this work, through replacing the electron-donating aromatic group with a methoxy group and combining intramolecular halogen bond to promote intersystem crossing and suppress non-radiative transition, an efficient UOP molecule (2Br-OSPh) has been synthesized with the longest lifetime and brightest UOP among its isomers. As compared to CzS2Br, which has a similar substituted position of bromine atom and a larger k (the rate of intersystem crossing), the smaller ΔE (the energy gap between monomeric phosphorescence and aggregated state phosphorescence) in 2Br-OSPh could accelerate the transition from T to T *. This research indicates that both generation and accumulation of triplet excitons play an important role in realizing efficient UOP materials.

Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of lipid-laden foam cells and plaques within the arterial wall. Dysfunctional vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), fibroblasts, endothelial cells, and macrophages contribute to disease progression. Here, we report that macrophage-specific expression of epsins, highly conserved endocytic adaptor proteins involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, accelerates atherosclerosis in Western diet-fed mice.

Mitochondria-targeted photodynamic therapy (PDT) circumvents the short lifetime and action radius limitation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and greatly improves the anticancer PDT efficacy. However, current approaches require different molecular engineering strategies to separately improve ROS production and introduce mitochondria targeting ability, which involve tedious synthetic procedures. Herein, we report a facile one-step cationization strategy that simultaneously improves the ROS generation efficiency and introduces mitochondria targeting ability for enhanced PDT.

Microscopic swimmers, such as bacteria and archaea, are paradigmatic examples of active matter systems. The study of these systems has given rise to novel concepts such as rectification of bacterial swimmers, in which microstructures can passively separate swimmers from non-swimming, inert particles. Many bacteria and archaea swim using rotary molecular motors to drive helical propellers called flagella or archaella.

Introduction: Relational continuity of care (RCC) refers to the sustained therapeutic relationship between a patient and a clinician, which fosters trust, enhances communication and facilitates the accumulation of knowledge about the patient. RCC is associated with enhanced patient outcomes, reduced hospital admissions, lower mortality rates, decreased healthcare costs and improved patient experience. Despite these benefits, reorganisations within the NHS and workforce challenges have led to an increased reliance on multidisciplinary and part-time working, resulting in fragmented care and a decline in RCC.

Glycine is an important metabolite and cell signal in diverse organisms, yet tools to visualize intracellular glycine dynamics have not been developed. In this study, diverse and bright RNA-based glycine biosensors were developed by fusing the architecturally complex glycine riboswitch with Broccoli class fluorogenic aptamers. The brightest sensor with the highest activation, glyS, and its two-dye ratiometric counterpart, Pepper-glyS, allowed for visualization of a drug-induced accumulation of endogenous glycine in live Escherichia colicells.
