Although tremendous efforts have been made to enhance the stability of lead halide perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs), they cannot meet the long-term requirements of photoelectric devices due to their poor reliability when attacked by multiple factors. Herein, we report ultrastable CsPbBr 3 :Sr/PbBr(OH)/molecular sieve composites with a high photoluminescence quantum yield of 75% and high overall stability when exposed to water, blue light and heat, owing to (i) the increased formation energy of CsPbBr 3 PeQDs by Sr doping and (ii) good encapsulation by PbBr(OH) and molecular sieves. These composites maintain 54% of their initial intensity after being aged at 85 °C and 150 mW cm −2 for 720 min, which is superior to commercial green CdSe-based QDs. These promising composites are then used to produce Mini-LED backlights with a high luminous efficacy of 86 lm/W and a color area of ~124% of the National Television Standards Committee or 93% of the Rec. 2020 standards by combining them with red CdSe/CdS/ZnS QDs and a blue Mini-LED chip. We believe that highly reliable PeQDs can be achieved by building well-designed composite structures, thus enabling them to be practically applied in emerging lighting and displays.

Due to the lower regeneration capacity of the osteoporotic bone, the treatment of osteoporotic defects is extremely challenging in clinics. In this study, strontium-doped bioactive glass nanoparticles loaded with sodium alendronate (ALN), namely A-SrBG, were incorporated into the poly(ether-ether-ketone) matrix to fabricate a bioactive composite scaffold (ASP), which was expected to both inhibit bone resorption and promote bone regeneration. The results showed that such a composite scaffold with interconnected macropores (200–400 μm) could release Ca2+, Sr2+, and ALN in vitro. The proliferation, alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, expression of osteogenesis-related genes, and formation of calcified nodules of rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) were clearly evidenced, and the reduction in the proliferation, tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity, cell fusion, and expression of osteoclastogenesis-related genes of osteoclasts was observed as well. In the presence of the ASP scaffold, enhanced osteogenesis along with inhibiting osteoclastogenesis was observed by modulating the osteoprotegerin (OPG)/receptor activator for nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) ratio. The efficacy of the composite scaffold in the regeneration of osteoporotic critical-sized cranial defect in a rat model was evaluated. Therefore, the bioactive composite scaffold with excellent biocompatibility and osteogenic potential could be a promising material for the repair of osteoporotic bone defects.

Osteointegration, the effective coupling between an implant and bone tissue, is a highly intricate biological process. The initial stages of bone-related immunomodulation and cellular colonization play crucial roles, but have received limited attention. Herein, a novel supramolecular co-assembled coating of strontium (Sr)-doped metal polyphenol networks (MPN) modified with c(RGDfc) is developed and well-characterized, for eliciting an early immunomodulation and cellular colonization. The results showed that the (Sr-MPN)@RGD coating significantly regulated the polarization of macrophages to the M2 phenotype by controllable release of Sr, and promote the initial adhesion of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by RGD presented on MPN. Notably, the (Sr-MPN)@RGD attenuated osteoclast differentiation and oxidative stress as well as enhanced osteoblast differentiation and angiogenesis due to macrophage polarization toward M2 phenotype, which in turn has a profound effect on neighboring cells through paracrine signaling. In vivo results showed that the (Sr-MPN)@RGD coating manifested superior osseointegration and bone maturation to the bare Ti-rod or Ti-rod coated with MPN and Sr-MPN. This work contributed to the design of multifunctional implant coatings that address the complex biological process of osteointegration from the perspective of orchestrating stem cell recruitment with immunomodulatory strategies.

The efficacy of sonodynamic therapy (SDT) mainly relies on the sonosensitizers, which generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon ultrasound (US) stimulation. However, the limited availability of high-efficiency sonosensitizers hampers the therapeutic effectiveness of SDT as a standalone modality. In this work, a robust sonodynamic and gas cancer therapeutic platform is constructed based on strontium (Sr) doped barium titanate (BST) piezoelectric nanoparticles functionalized with L-arginine (BST@LA). The doping of Sr into A site of the ABO 3 piezoelectric nanocrystals not only introduces oxygen vacancies into the nanoparticles and enhance the intrinsic piezoelectricity, but also narrows the semiconductor band gap and enhances charge carrier migration, all of which facilitate the sonodynamic production of superoxide anion (•O 2 − ) and hydroxyl radical (•OH). In addition, the generated ROS promotes the decomposition of the surface-tethered LA, enabling the controlled release of nitric oxide (NO) gas at the tumor site, thereby achieving a combination therapeutic effect. In vivo experiments exhibit remarkable tumor suppression rate (89.5%) in 4T1 tumor mice model, demonstrating the effectiveness of this strategy. The ion doping and oxygen vacancy engineering to improve sonosensitizers, along with the synergistic combination of sonodynamic and gas therapy, provides promising avenues for improving cancer therapy.
