Semiconducting photothermal nanoagonist for remote-controlled specific cancer therapy by Zhen, Xu, Xie, Chen, Jiang, Yuyan, Ai, Xiangzhao, Xing, Bengang, Pu, Kanyi

“…The organic nanoagonists comprise semiconducting polymer nanoparticles (SPNs) and capsaicin (Cap) as the photothermally responsive nanocarrier and the agonist for activation of transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily V member 1 (TRPV1), respectively. Under multiple NIR laser irradiation at the time scale of seconds, the nanoagonists can repeatedly and locally release Cap to multiply activate TRPV1 channels on the cellular membrane; the cumulative effect is the overinflux of ions in mitochondria followed by the induction of cell apoptosis specifically for TRPV1-postive cancer cells. …”

Development of an educational method to rethink and learn oncological brain surgery in an “a la carte” connectome-based perspective by Valdes, Pablo A., Ng, Sam, Bernstock, Joshua D., Duffau, Hugues

“…Conclusions Taking no more than 3–5 min per patient and irrespective of their resource settings, we believe that this method will enable junior surgeons to develop an intuition, and a robust 3-dimensional imagery of WMT by regularly applying it to their cases both before and after surgery to develop an “a la carte” connectome-based perspective to glioma surgery.…”

Are there advantages to believing in fate? the belief in negotiating with fate when faced with constraints by Au, Evelyn W. M., Savani, Krishna

“…Subsequent studies found that after recalling a constraining event, exposure to the belief in negotiating with fate (but not exposure to fatalism) decreased repetitive thoughts (Experiment 3), increased the conviction that personal actions contributed to the event (Experiment 4), increased acceptance and positive reinterpretation of the event (Experiment 5), and increased how meaningful the event was (Experiment 6). …”
