Alkali and Co2+ co-modulation has seldom been investigated as a prospective strategy to achieve high-efficient microwave absorbing (MA) materials. In this work, a new alkali and Co ion exchange co-modulation strategy was first reported, leading to broadband MA capacity through simultaneous manipulating multiple factors, such as composition, micromorphology, and heterogeneous interface. And enhancements in impedance matching and magnetic–dielectric loss were synergistically realized. Consequently, the optimized FeCo alloy@porous carbon (FPC) nanocomposite with the alkali regulation delivered an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) of 6.72 GHz, making it the merely single FeCo-based metal-organic framework derived FPC absorber with a low filler content of 15 wt.%. Interestingly, the nanocomposites by ion exchange strategy realized the switchable "on/off" states on electromagnetic response. Furthermore, the radar cross-section (RCS) reduction value of the products reached 25.6 dB·m2 under the incident angle of 0°. In brief, this work not only offers the special role of alkali and Co2+ co-modulation in composition regulation, structure design, and MA capacity, but also provides a reliable strategy to develop smart nano-absorbers to cope with electromagnetic pollution issues.

Exosomes are extracellular vesicles which carry specific molecular information from donor cells and act as an intercellular communication vehicle, which have emerged as a novel cell-free strategy for the treatment of many diseases including inflammatory disease. Recently, rising studies have developed exosome-based strategies for novel inflammation therapy due to their biocompatibility and bioactivity. Researchers not only use native exosomes as therapeutic agents for inflammation, but also strive to make up for the natural defects of exosomes through engineering methods to improve and update the property of exosomes for enhanced therapeutic effects. The engineered exosomes can improve cargo-loading efficiency, targeting ability, stability, etc., to achieve combined and diverse treatment strategies in inflammation diseases. Herein, a comprehensive overview of the recent advances in application studies of native and engineered exosomes as well as the engineered methods is provided. Meanwhile, potential application prospects, possible challenges, and the development of clinical researches of exosome treatment strategy are concluded from plentiful examples, which may be able to provide guidance and suggestions for the future research and application of exosomes.
