The yield reached up to 86% in the optimized system. These core-shell nanocomposites were stable upon storage, in contrast to the naked nanoMOFs. In addition, the presence of the coating prevented the doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded nanoMOFs from aggregation. Moreover, due to the presence of fluorophores conjugated to the shell, fluorescence-lifetime microscopy enabled deciphering the coating mechanism. DOX loadings reached 48 ± 10 wt% after 24 h incubation with the drug solution. After coating for additional 24 h, DOX loadings reached 65 ± 8 wt%. Antigen-adjuvant combination could induce a protective and long-lasting anti-tumor immune response. However, exploiting system which could co-deliver melanoma antigen peptide Trp2 (Tyrosinase-related protein 2) and Toll-like-receptor-7 (TLR7) agonists imiquimod (R837) both are poor aqueous solubility is still challenging. Our new nanocomplex was explored for specific delivery of Trp2 and R837 into antigen-presenting cells (APCs). R837 was loaded into mannosylated-β-cyclodextrin (Man-CD) to target dendritic cells (DCs) by binding mannose receptors (MR) on DCs. A fusion peptide (WT) was constructed by incorporating the amino acid region of TAT (cell-penetrating peptide) into Trp2 to improve the TAT-mediated intracellular efficiency. Negatively charged sodium alginate (SA), a biocompatible polymer, which can induce adjuvant responses by affecting the functions of DCs, was complexed with Man-CD/R837 and WT via physical adsorption. The optimized nanocomplex promoted the cellular uptake and showed remarkable efficacy to enhance the secreting of Th1-cytokines. This multi-functional nanocomplex system may allow effective targeting-codelivery of multi-hydrophobic drugs and be a promising subunit vaccine candidate as a potentialpreventionactionoftumor. V.Cryo-EM Single Particle Analysis workflows require tens of thousands of high-quality particle projections to unveil the three-dimensional structure of macromolecules. Conventional methods for automatic particle picking tend to suffer from high false-positive rates, hampering the reconstruction process. One common cause of this problem is the presence of carbon and different types of high-contrast contaminations. In order to overcome this limitation, we have developed MicrographCleaner, a deep learning package designed to discriminate, in an automated fashion, between regions of micrographs which are suitable for particle picking, and those which are not. MicrographCleaner implements a U-net-like deep learning model trained on a manually curated dataset compiled from over five hundred micrographs. The benchmarking, carried out on approximately one hundred independent micrographs, shows that MicrographCleaner is a very efficient approach for micrograph preprocessing. MicrographCleaner (micrograph_cleaner_em) package is available at PyPI and Anaconda Cloud and also as a Scipion/Xmipp protocol. Source code is available at https//github.com/rsanchezgarc/micrograph_cleaner_em. The study of early parental competences is relevant because such competences are related to children's development; however, most studies have considered competences using a variable-centered approach in which each parental competence is examined in isolation. This paper approaches these competences using a person-centered approach, generating profiles that combine different competences in Chilean mothers assessed when their children were aged 12 months and again at 30 months. The aim of this study was to generate and compare these profiles and to analyze the associations of these profiles with children's language and socioemotional skills. Mother-child interactions in the contexts of storytelling and free play were videotaped at two different times. Ninety mother-child dyads were assessed using the Adult Sensitivity Scale (E.S.A.), the Evaluation of the Mentalization of Significant Caregivers, the Checklist of Observations Linked to Outcomes
