Graphical Abstract
An innovative footpad skin optical clearing agent (FSOCA) has been developed to make the footpad skin transparent with topical treatment, and saline can make the footpad skin recovery. Cover figures show the switchable window permits various optical image to access to cutaneous blood flow with higher contrast, and to cell from deeper depth. The stable distribution and morphological structure of monocyte demonstrates repeated FSOCA treatment could not induce inflammation. Further details can be found in the article by Rui Shi et al. on pp. 1647–1656.
