Owing to the natural abundance of sodium, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) serve as a more cost-effective option compared with lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), while offering comparable energy storage capabilities. This study presents the compositional optimizations, structural characterizations, and electrochemical performance of a new mixed sodium (Na) superionic conductor (NASICON)-type polyanionic material, NaFe 2 PO 4 (SO 4 ) 2 (NFPS). Subsequently, the introduction of Ni 2+ doping serves to simultaneously improve the structural integrity and electronic conductivity of the material, leading to a collective enhancement of the sodium-ion diffusion channels. The Ni 2+ -incorporated phase, NaFe 1.92 Ni 0.08 PO 4 (SO 4 ) 2 , exhibits faster Na + diffusion, resulting in superior rate and cycling performance versus NFPS. After 80 cycles at 25 mA g −1 , NFPS-Ni 0.08 maintains a discharge capacity of 58.7 mA h g −1 , outperforming undoped NFPS by 20%.

Aptamer-based sensors (aptasensors) have been extensively employed in biosensing and diagnostics. However, the broader application of aptasensors fabricated with DNA and RNA aptamers has been limited due to the intolerance of DNA and RNA to nucleases in biological fluids. A majority of sugar-modified nucleic acids, in particular 2’-F and 2’-OMe-modified nucleic acids, demonstrate a remarkable resistance to nuclease degradation and thus hold great potential in the development of more stable aptamers and aptasensors. In this work, employing enzymes including a laboratory-evolved polymerase for 2’-modified nucleic acids, we carried out systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) experiments to obtain 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptamers for Bacillus cereus 5/B/6 metallo-β-lactamase (B. cereus 5/B/6 MBL), a crucial marker of many penicillin-resistant strains. Three aptamers composed of 2’-OMe-A, 2’-F-U, 2’-F-C, and 2’-OMe-G nucleotides (Apt-FUC1, Apt-FUC2, and Apt-FUC3) have been obtained and systematically characterized. All of them exhibited excellent target binding affinities, with equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd ) values of 95.9, 70.0, and 81.3 nM, and outstanding biological stability. Combining FAM-labeled Apt-FUC1, Apt-FUC2, and Apt-FUC3 with graphene oxide (GO), which could quench the fluorescence of FAM, we successfully constructed three sensitive and biologically stable 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptasensors for B. cereus 5/B/6 MBL, with the limit of detection (LOD) values of 0.38, 0.27, and 0.29 nM. Moreover, these three aptasensors all demonstrated good specificity for target detection in biological samples. This work has established a streamlined strategy for generating stable 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptamers and aptasensors, which should broaden the application of sugar-modified nucleic acids in biosensing and diagnostics.

NiFe-layered double hydroxides (NiFe LDHs) are regarded as outstanding electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), but the inherent charge transport limitations hinder their practical application. Herein, we developed a 3D hierarchical α-Co(OH) 2 /NiFe LDH/NF composite catalyst via a simple electrodeposition-hydrothermal method. The introduction of α-Co(OH) 2 enables interfacial electron modulation with NiFe LDH, driving electron transfer from Ni/Co sites to Fe centers via multi-pathway coupling channels (Ni–O–Fe, Ni–O–Co, Co–O–Fe). This electron redistribution creates an optimized coordination environment that promotes the formation of high-valence Ni and Co species, subsequently facilitating the in situ formation of highly active phases (γ-NiFeOOH and CoOOH) during the OER process. The derived γ-NiFeOOH provides superior intrinsic activity, while the coexisting. CoOOH significantly enhances charge transport due to its high electronic conductivity. As a result, the composite achieves an overpotential of only 285 mV at a current density of 500 mA cm −2 , outperforming both NiFe LDH (372 mV) and α-Co(OH) 2 (441 mV). Additionally, this catalyst shows an excellent long-term stability at 100 mA cm −2 for 120 h. This work demonstrates that interfacial electronic modulation offers a strategy for designing efficient and durable OER catalysts capable of operating at industrial current densities.

Since diabetes lead to alterations in bone metabolism with reductions in bone mineral content and delayed bone formation, the most effective method for bone regeneration in diabetes remains to be determined. In this study, type 2 diabetes were successfully induced via a high-fat diet and low-dose streptozotocin intraperitoneal injection. Excess reactive oxygen species (ROS) has been implicated in diabetes mellitus. Overexpression of ROS can lead to oxidative stress and subsequently to H 2 O 2 -mediated impaired proliferation and delayed cellular differentiation. As a result, antioxidant alpha-lipoic acid (ALA)-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) microspheres were fabricated using the emulsion solvent evaporation method, and a sustained and controlled release of ALA was observed up to 27 days. It was demonstrated that biodegradable PLGA microspheres loaded with ALA acted as ROS scavengers and partially recover the mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and differentiation. The bone formation of ALA loaded scaffolds in rat cranial bone defects were greater than the prime three-dimensional collagen scaffold. These results suggest the application of ALA loaded PLGA microsphere exhibit good bioactivity and bone forming ability in diabetes.

The octahedral molecular sieve manganese oxide (OMS-2) and graphite (Gt) composites (OMS-2/Gt) were prepared by a facile refluxing approach. The structure and morphology of the obtained materials were systematically investigated. The results reveal that OMS-2 nanofibers are uniformly dispersed on the surface of Gt, and the ratio of Mn 3+ species in OMS-2 increases lineally with the increase of Gt dosage. The catalytic activity of OMS-2/Gt was evaluated by the degradation of Acid Orange 7 (AO7) in the presence of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). It is found that the OMS-2/Gt composites show enhanced catalytic performance with the degradation rate lineally correlated with the content of OMS-2 in the catalyst, and even with the ratio of Mn 3+ /Mn 4+ . XPS and radical scavenger experiments further indicated that the oxidation of Mn 3+ by PMS system occurs in the system with the formation of hydroxyl radicals contributed to the dye degradation . The catalysts also exhibit good stability and reusability during consecutive cycles. Thus, the environmental friendly OMS-2/Gt composites with low cost, facile synthesis process and high efficiency are very promising catalysts for PMS activation and pollutants degradation.

Silicon (Si) light source has profound significance in monolithic integrated Si photonics. However, its luminance remains too low to meet practical use that usually requires > 10000 cd m⁻ 2 . Here, an all-inorganic Si nanocrystal (SiNC) white light-emitting diode (WLED) with a continuous emission spectrum spanning ≈400–900 nm in wavelength, is reported. The architecture of the WLED comprises front electrode of Ag grids and transparent-conducting-oxide/electron transport layer (ETL) of ZnO/front charge confinement layer (CCL) of SiO 2 /active layer of low-resistivity SiNC composite thin film/rear CCL of SiO 2 /hole transport layer (HTL) of MoO 3 /textured p-Si substrate/rear electrode of aluminum/heat radiator. The main procedures for achieving high luminance here include combined applications of high-pressure ammonia passivation of the active layer, which enhances its photoluminescence quantum yield significantly, and texturing of p-Si substrate, which boosts the light extraction and charge injection effectively. With an optimized combination of passivation and texturing, luminance of 10751 cd m⁻ 2 is achieved with external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 0.26%. After a Peltier cooler is further applied, luminance of 12363 cd m⁻ 2 is attained with EQE of 0.30%. Following further technical iterations, this highly bright SiNC WLED shall find applications in monolithic integrated Si photonics and even Si general lighting.

Cisplatin (CIS) is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent that is highly effective against various cancers. However, its clinical application is frequently limited by its substantial nephrotoxic side effects. The gastrin-releasing peptide receptor (GRPR), a critical regulator in inflammatory diseases, has been identified as a promising therapeutic target. Our previous studies have demonstrated that the GRPR antagonists PD176252 and RH-1402 can mitigate CIS-induced nephrotoxicity through anti-inflammatory mechanisms. Based on these findings, we designed and synthesized a series of 2-arylpropanoic acid-L-tryptophan derivatives to enhance the therapeutic effects. Among these compounds,3mexhibited superior renal protection by significantly improving mouse renal tubular epithelial cell (mRTEC) viability from 50.2 ± 2.6% to 80.5 ± 3.9%, surpassing PD176252 (70.8 ± 1.4%) and RH-1402 (73.9 ± 3.7%). Moreover, compound3mmarkedly reduced the expression of kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) and inflammatory cytokines [Tumor Necrosis Factor-α (TNF-α), Interleukin-6 (IL-6), Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-1 (MCP-1)]. Finally, molecular docking results revealed that3mexhibited a high binding affinity for GRPR. Computational predictions using SwissADME further indicated that3mpossesses favorable drug-like properties, thereby supporting its potential as a promising candidate for mitigating CIS-induced nephrotoxicity.

Tin–air batteries (TABs) exhibit high safety and low cost, and are expected to be used in electric vehicles and portable electronic devices. However, challenges such as the irregular deposition of tin (Sn) particles on Sn anodes, surface passivation, and significant hydrogen evolution have hindered the development of high-performance TABs. To address these challenges, this study introduces quasi-solid TABs (QSTABs) with satisfactory high-temperature resistance. A conductive metal–organic framework (c-MOF), particularly Ni 3 (HITP) 2 , was synthesized and deposited onto the Sn anode surface. The porous structure of c-MOF increased the specific surface area of the Sn anode, improved electronic conductivity and facilitated the absorption and release of ions during charge and discharge cycling. Theoretical calculations revealed that Ni 3 (HITP) 2 provided more electron donor sites to coordinate with Sn 2+ and inhibited hydrogen release. Additionally, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) was incorporated into the organic gel polymer electrolytes (OGPEs) to significantly enhance their water retention, ensuring stable operation of QSTABs between 25 and 50 °C. Notably, QSTABs assembled with CMC-OGPE/Sn@Ni 3 (HITP) 2 exhibited a fine cycle life of over 200 cycles at 50 °C. The electronic c-MOF material effectively inhibited metal shedding and side reactions on the Sn anode. These findings provide valuable guidance for developing QSTABs with high-temperature resistance.

Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) plays vital roles in promoting angiogenesis, tissue invasion, and resistance to apoptosis, so it has become an attractive biomarker for imaging and therapy of cancer. Numerous radio-tracers for detection of COX-2 in vivo have been reported, but no one has been successfully applied in clinic. In this study, the radiosynthesis and evaluation of [ 18 F] 6 , containing a 1,5-diarylpyrrole structure, as a radiotracer for imaging of COX-2 is described. [ 18 F] 6 was prepared within 90 min synthesis time with radiochemical yields (RCYs) of 2–6% (n = 7, decay corrected) from [ 18 F]fluoride by a one-step 18 F-trifluoromethylation reaction. After purification by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), its radiochemical purity (RCP) was higher than 98%, and the molar activity was 156–210 MBq/mmol. The stability of [ 18 F] 6 was determined by incubation in saline and fetal bovine serum (FBS) in vitro, showing excellent stability in 4 h. The specific binding of [ 18 F] 6 was evaluated using MCF-7 cells (COX-2 positive cells) in vitro, where the radiotracer uptake was blocked in the presence of Celecoxib (a commonly used COX-2 inhibitor). However, no tumor accumulation of [ 18 F] 6 could be observed by micro-PET/CT studies on MCF-7 tumor-bearing mice in vivo. This may be due to the insufficient molar activity of [ 18 F] 6, or inadequate expression of COX-2 in MCF-7. In conclusion, optimizations of radiosynthesis and evaluations of specific binding in suitable model are further still needed to verify the potential of [ 18 F] 6 as a COX-2 imaging agent.

Kiwifruit has extremely high nutritional value, but its rootstock strongly influences the physiology and metabolism of its scion fruit. Here, we evaluated the influence of a new kiwifruit rootstock, Actinidia valvata ′Zhongmikangzhen No. 2′, on the leaves and fruits of the scion A. deliciosa ′Zhongmi 2′. The leaf size, leaf mineral element contents, fruit size (single-fruit weight, longitudinal diameter and transverse diameter), and fruit quality traits (soluble sugar content, vitamin C content, total acidity and dry matter content) of ′Zhongmi 2′ grafted on ′Zhongmikangzhen No. 2′ (zk) and A. deliciosa seedling (zp) rootstock were measured at five fruit developmental stages (30, 60, 90, 120, and 150 days after flowering (DAF)). The zk fruits were significantly larger than those of zp and their leaves were also longer. The leaf length and width of the zk fruits was significantly greater than those of the zp fruits. The leaf contents of Cu, P and Mo significantly differed at 60, 120 and 120 DAF, respectively. The fruits of the two stock–scion combinations may presented different flavors. UPLC–MS/MS analysis of the fruit metabolome revealed 1697 differentially expressed metabolites. These metabolites, which were divided into multiple categories through KEGG analysis, indicated significant differences in fruit quality and resistance. Decanoic acid (decreased in zk-hard) and 9-oxononanoic acid (increased in zk-hard) may collectively affect fruit aroma. Moreover, α-linolenic acid and 12-oxo-phytodienoic acid (a precursor of jasmonic acid), both of which increase in zk-hard, contribute to increased nutritional value and are involved in the abiotic stress response, respectively. This study revealed the effects of different rootstock–scion combinations on fruit quality traits and leaf mineral elements and provides a basis for studying the mechanisms of rootstock–scion interactions.

Long-term infection with Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) leads to elevated serum gastrin levels, which are closely related to gastric cancer. Eradication of H. pylori to treat the high gastrin levels is increasingly challenged by antibiotic resistance. Dopamine (DA) receptor 1 (D1R) is expressed on G cells in the gastric antrum. Parietal cells produce DA, which inhibits somatostatin (SOM) release through D2R on D cells in the gastric mucosa. Whether targeted intervention in DRs can improve high gastrin levels after H. pylori infection remains to be explored. In this study, human gastric tissue, H. pylori-infected mice, D1R and D2R knockout mice, RT‒qPCR, ELISA, IHC, Western Blot, HE staining and ex vivo incubation of gastric mucosae were used. We found that H. pylori infection destroyed the mitochondria of parietal cells and reduced DA content in the gastric mucosa at 10 weeks after infection. Moreover, gastrin-positive cell numbers and serum gastrin levels were increased. D1R, but not D2R, was observed in G cells. DA promoted gastric gastrin secretion. Interestingly, both D1- and D2-like agonists mimicked the effect of DA on the gastrin secretion, which was antagonized by their antagonists. Blocking D2R with domperidone or knocking out D2R resulted in decreased gastrin-positive cell numbers and gastrin levels but increased SOM levels at 10 weeks after H. pylori infection. Our findings highlight the key regulatory effect of D2R on gastrin secretion and elucidate the role of domperidone in reducing the elevated gastrin level associated with H. pylori infection.

The inevitable damage to paint films during coating applications significantly reduces their protective performance, leaving the underlying substrate vulnerable. Developing self-healing coatings is therefore of critical importance. This study presents the synthesis of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/polyurea hybrid microcapsules (MCs) loaded with isophorone diisocyanate via interfacial polymerization in an oil-in-water emulsion, with PVA serving as the emulsifier. These microcapsules were incorporated into acrylic resin, along with a dispersant, co-solvent, and isocyanate curing agent, to formulate a microencapsulated self-healing two-component waterborne polyurethane (2 K WPU) coating. The microcapsules were characterized using TG, FTIR, and SEM. The influence of PVA's polymerization degree and alcoholysis degree on microcapsule properties was systematically analyzed. Results indicate that PVA 1799 as an emulsifier yields microcapsules with minimal surface folds and smooth morphology. When 9 wt% of MC 1799 was added to the 2 K WPU coating, the resulting formulation exhibited optimal performance, achieving an average particle size of 29 μm, along with superior self-healing and anti-corrosion properties. This research offers a novel approach for developing high-performance self-healing coatings with potential industrial applications.
