The stable three-dimensional framework and high operating voltage of sodium superionic conductor (NASICON)-type Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 has the potential to work with long cycle life and high-rate performance; however, it suffers from the poor intrinsic electronic conductivity and low energy density . Herein, Ga 3+ is introduced into Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 to activate the V 4+ /V 5+ redox couple at a high potential of 4.0 V for enhancing energy density of the materials (Na 3 V 2-x Ga x (PO 4 ) 3 ). After the partial substitution of Ga 3+ for V 3+ , three redox couples (V 2+ /V 3+ , V 3+ /V 4+ and V 4+ /V 5+ ) of V are reversibly converted in the voltage range of 1.4–4.2 V, suggesting multi-electrons (>2e − ) involved in the reversible reaction, and simultaneously the electronic conductivity of the materials is effectively enhanced. As a result, the cathode with x = 0.75 exhibits excellent electrochemical properties: in the voltage range of 2.2–4.2 V, delivering an initial capacity of 105 mAh/g at 1C with a capacity retention rate of 92.3% after 400 cycles, and providing a stable reversible capacity of 88.3 mAh/g at 40C; and in the voltage range of 1.4–4.2 V, presenting the reversible capacity 152.3 mAh/g at 1C (497.6 Wh kg −1 ), and cycling stably for 1000 cycles at 20C with a capacity decay of 0.02375% per cycle. It is found that the Na 3 V 2-x Ga x (PO 4 ) 3 cathodes possess the sodium storage mechanism of single-phase and bi-phase reactions. This investigation presents a useful strategy to enhance the energy density and cycling life of NASICON-structured polyanionic phosphates by activating high-potential V 4+ /V 5+ redox couple.

Four titanium-oxo-clusters with cyclohex-3-ene-1-carboxylate (Cec) ligands, Ti6(μ2-O)2(μ3-O)2(Cec)4(OiPr)12 (PTC-91; HOiPr = isopropanol), Ti6(μ3-O)6(Cec)6(OiPr)6 (PTC-92 and PTC-93) and H2[Ti18(μ2-O)11(μ3-O)14(Cec)20(OiPr)4] (PTC-94), have been solvothermally synthesized under different conditions, respectively. These clusters with the same Cec ligand show totally different structures, and they are stable in water and other common solvents. The Ti6 clusters with different conformations are presented in PTC-91, PTC-92 and PTC-93, while PTC-94 is an unusual Ti18 cluster. The photocatalytic studies reveal that PTC-91 and PTC-94 have good H2 evolution ability.

The green nitrogen-rich coordination compound Cd(SCZ)2(AFT)2 (1) (AFT =4-amino-3-(5-tetrazolate)-furazan and SCZ = semicarbazide) was first synthesized and characterized by EA and Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR). The single crystal was cultivated and determined with X-ray diffraction. It revealed that 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c. A Cd2+ ion is coordinated by four N atoms and two O atoms to form a distorted octahedral structure. Among them, two nitrogen atoms are from the two AFT ions and the other four atoms are from two SCZ molecules. The thermal decomposition behavior of 1 was studied with DSC and TG-DTG methods. The apparent activation energy (E), thermal stability, and safety parameters (T

Graphical Closed borders : A Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) ceramic is adopted to block the migration of polysulfides in Li−S batteries, with solvent-in-salt wetting the electrode/ceramic interfaces. Owing to suppressed dissolution of polysulfides in SIS, the semi-solid-state Li−S batteries show superior capacity retention and long cycling life. Aimed at tackling the shuttle effect in lithium-sulfur (Li−S) batteries, a Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 (LAGP) ceramic is adopted to block the migration of polysulfides. However, the LAGP-based Li−S battery with liquid electrolyte wetting the interfaces still suffers from rapid capacity decay, as polysulfides tend to dissolve into liquid electrolyte and get firmly adsorbed by LAGP. In this work, a dual confinement effect for polysulfides is put forward, enabled by the LAGP ceramic and solvent-in-salt (SIS), wherein the SIS can greatly suppress the dissolution of polysulfides. Owing to the synergistic effect of SIS and LAGP, the semi-solid-state Li−S batteries show superior capacity retention and long cycling life. In particular, at a current density of 0.2 C, the Li−S battery with SIS-modified LAGP ceramic electrolyte delivers a high initial reversible capacity of 1251.7 mAh g −1 and long cycle life of over 250 cycles with a decay rate of only 0.07 % per cycle.

Background The RNA-binding protein polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1), also known as heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein I (hnRNP I), mediates gene expression through splicing regulation. Its role in virus infection is undefined. Results We show that genetic ablation of PTBP1 renders cell resistant to herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) infection. HSV-1 utilizes 3-O-sulfated heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) for attachment and for infection of epithelial cells. We found that knockout of PTBP1 expression resulted in loss of HS3ST3A1 and HS3ST3B1, heparan sulfate glucosaminyl 3-O-sulfotransferase genes for 3-O-sulfation of the heparan sulfate (HS) chains of HSPGs. Each of the HS3ST3A1/HS3ST3B1 genes is composed of 2 exons separated by an extraordinarily long intron whose removal requires PTBP1-associated looping. We found that PTBP1 interacted with the intronic region of HS3ST3A1/HS3ST3B1 pre-mRNAs and modulated their processing to mRNA. The essential role of PTBP1 in functional HS3ST3A1 expression and in HSV-1 infection was demonstrated by ectopic re-expression in the knockout (ko) cells. In addition, we showed that targeting PTBP1 expression by microRNA mimics reduced disease symptoms in a mouse herpetic stromal keratitis (HSK) model. Conclusions The results demonstrate that PTBP1 mediates HSV-1 infection of epithelial cells through splicing regulation of HS3ST3A1/HS3ST3B1. These studies provide a new area for novel therapeutic strategies through splicing regulation. Graphical abstract By Sun et al.

In this work, a novel sensitive colorimetric sensor was constructed for the determination of Iron (II) (Fe 2+) via by modifying 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine and 3-mercaptopropionic acid on the surface of silver nanoparticles. In the presence of Fe 2+ , the modifying groups interacted with Fe 2+, which caused the color of the solution changed, and the absorption peak at 395 nm decreased, while a new absorption peak appeared at 525 nm. This method exhibited good selectivity and sensitivity for the determination of Fe 2+ by observing the color of the system with the naked eye and calculating the ratio of A525 and A404, the linear range was from 0.5×10 -6 M to 1.00×10 -5 M and the limit of visual colorimetric detection was 500 nM. This method has great potential for the rapid detection of iron(II) in environmental samples, including successful applications in tap water and lake water analysis.

Bone organoids offer potential for bone regeneration and in vitro organ models. Current limitations in bone organoid culture systems include low efficiency in construction and functionality, as well as increased apoptosis in prolonged cultures of larger sizes. The ketone body 3-hydroxybutyrate (3HB), synthesized in the liver, addresses these challenges effectively. Our findings suggest that 3HB increases intracellular calcium ion (Ca 2+ ) levels in human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) by activating the hydroxycarboxylic acid receptor 2 (HCAR2). This activation initiates the cAMP/PKA/CREB pathway, which elevates the expression of anti-apoptotic genes such as myeloid cell leukemia 1 (MCL1) and B cell lymphoma 2-related protein A1 (BCL2A1), thereby reducing apoptosis. Furthermore, this pathway boosts the expression of osteogenic proteins, including Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) and bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), facilitating osteogenesis in bone organoids. Consequently, 3HB may enhance the construction of bone organoids that are more mature, larger, and have longer viability. Graphical Our study demonstrates that 3-Hydroxybutyrate (3HB) activates the HCAR2 receptor in hBMSCs, leading to an increase in intracellular calcium levels and subsequent activation of the cAMP/PKA/CREB signaling pathway. This pathway upregulates the expression of the anti-apoptotic molecule MCL1 and early osteogenic factors RUNX2 and BMP2. These dual effects of 3HB, promoting osteogenesis and inhibiting apoptosis, provide a promising strategy for constructing more viable and mature bone organoids with higher efficiency.

The direct synthesis of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) from CO 2 is a promising route for CO 2 utilization, however it is constrained by high CO 2 activation barrier and inherent thermodynamic limitations. Herein, we developed a reactive extraction strategy to intensify the reaction through 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium triazolide ionic liquids (ILs) (CnMImTz, n = 2, 4, 6, and 8) by modulating IL polarity. The absorption and activation mechanism of CO 2 in ILs was demonstrated, and subsequent transformation into DMC can be achieved under mild conditions. Remarkably, C2MImTz achieves the highest DMC yield (9.4 % after 12 h at 25 °C), revealing chain-length dependent catalytic efficiency of IL analogs at both kinetics- and thermodynamic-controlled stages. Phase analyses, binding energy calculations, and molecular dynamics simulations revealed that the highly polar C2MImTz preferentially concentrate CH 3 OH and H 2 O, while spontaneously segregating weakly polar DMC into a separate phase. The enhanced CH 3 OH concentration and diffusion coefficients promote the mass transfer and reaction kinetics. Moreover, the segregation of DMC can effectively shift thermodynamic equilibrium toward DMC formation. Therefore, the integrated absorption-conversion-separation process within a single functionalized IL presents a scalable platform for CO 2 capture and utilization.

Biomass, as a renewable carbon resource, holds broad application prospects. Among various bio-based platform molecules, furan derivatives play a significant role in green chemical production. Notably, the conversion of 2-methylfuran (2-MF) to 3-acetyl-1-propanol (3-AP) over bifunctional catalysts has attracted considerable interest. In this study, a Pd@PHZSM-5 catalyst was prepared by encapsulating Pd nanoparticles within P-doped HZSM-5 for 2-MF conversion. The encapsulation improved Pd dispersion and metal–acid synergy, enhancing both catalytic activity and 3-AP selectivity. Additionally, phosphorus doping increased HZSM-5 crystallinity, resulting in excellent stability. This work provides a feasible strategy for optimizing metal–acid cooperation, offering theoretical guidance for bifunctional catalysis and biomass valorization.

A sensitive spectrophotometric method (the Br − -ABTS method) for measuring monopersulfate (PMS) of 0–20 μM in water was established. The Br − -ABTS method was based on the oxidation coloration reaction where Br − as catalyst promoted PMS for oxidation of ABTS forming the green-colored ABTS radical (ABTS • + ) under pH 3.0 (50 mM phosphate buffer). ABTS • + could be quantitatively measured at 415 nm, 650 nm, 732 nm and 820 nm using UV–vis spectrophotometer. There was a well linear relationship between the absorbance of ABTS • + and PMS concentration with the value of R 2 being 0.999. The proposed Br − -ABTS method was highly sensitive, and the absorbance generated by Br − -ABTS at 415 nm was 6.59 × 10 4 cm −1 per M (mol L –1 ) of PMS. The changes of pH from 3.0 to 9.0 had an insignificant effect on the calibration curve of Br − -ABTS method. The reaction of PMS with ABTS had a stoichiometric coefficient of 1:1.96 at the pH 3.0. The residual absorbance of ABTS •+ in ultrapure water, Xiangjiang water and Hou-lake water was stable within 30 min. Moreover, the trace PMS concentration of 0.03–20 μM in ultrapure water, 0.05–20 μM in natural water (e. g. Xiangjiang water and Hou-lake water) and 1–20 μM in wastewater was accurately measured with the proposed Br − -ABTS method. Additionally, the interference of natural water matrix (e. g. humic acid), metal ions (e. g. Co(II), Fe(III) and Cu(II)) and hydroxylamine had barely interference for the proposed Br − -ABTS method. Furthermore, the Br − -ABTS method was more accurate and flexible to determine PMS concentration than DPD method during the decolorization of rhodamine B in the Co(II)/PMS system, Cu(II)/PMS system and hydroxylamine/Fe(III)/PMS process.

In this work, ultra-low loss Li 2 MgTi 0.7 (Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 0.3 O 4 ceramics were successfully prepared via the conventional solid-state method. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) and bond energy were used to determine the distinction between intrinsic and extrinsic dielectric loss in (Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 4+ ions substituted ceramics. The addition of (Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 4+ ions enhances the bond energy in unit cell without changing the crystal structure of Li 2 MgTiO 4 , which results in high Q·f value as an intrinsic factor. The extrinsic factors such as porosity and grain size influence the dielectric loss at lower sintering temperature , while the oxygen vacancies play dominant role when the ceramics densified at 1400 °C. The Li 2 MgTi 0.7 (Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 0.3 O 4 ceramics sintered at 1400 °C can achieve an excellent combination of microwave dielectric properties : ε r = 16.19, Q·f = 160,000 GHz and τ f = −3.14 ppm/°C. In addition, a certain amount of LiF can effectively lower the sintering temperature of the matrix, and the Li 2 MgTi 0.7 (Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 ) 0.3 O 4 -3 wt% LiF ceramics sintered at 1100 °C possess balanced properties with ε r = 16.32, Q·f = 145,384 GHz and τ f = −16.33 ppm/°C.
