Vitiligo is an autoimmune disorder marked by melanocyte destruction and epidermal depigmentation, primarily driven by inflammatory and oxidative stress within the affected skin lesions. Consequently, there is an urgent need for therapeutic strategies focused on protecting melanocytes and replenishing melanin for effective vitiligo management. In this study, a novel microneedle-based therapeutic platform (C/D/E@MN) was fabricat...

Tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily member 4 (TNFRSF4), also known as OX40, plays a crucial role in the regulation of T-cell immune responses under normal physiological conditions. Abnormal expression of OX40 and its cognate ligand OX40L (TNFSF4) have been associated with various autoimmune diseases, indicating that blocking the OX40/OX40L pathway could be a promising strategy for the treatment of a broad range of T cel...

Remote sensing technology is widely used to obtain information on floating green tides, and thresholding methods based on indices such as the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and the floating algae index (FAI) play an important role in such studies. However, as the methods are influenced by many factors, the threshold values vary greatly; in particular, the error of data extraction clearly increases in situations...
