Titanosilicate-1 zeolites (TS-1) as one of the most commonly used catalysts for alkene epoxidation , construction of hierarchical pores as well as elimination of anatase to promote mass transportation and avoid invalid decomposition of hydrogen peroxide are always desirable yet challenging goals. Here, a novel and unique Ti-based metal organic frameworks (MOFs)-induced synthetic strategy for fabricating anatase-free hierarchical TS-1 was first proposed. All the components of MOFs perform different functions: the uniformly distributed Ti nodes replace conventional tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) to serve as sole Ti source for constructing zeolite crystal; the separated ligands can be embedded in the zeolite framework and act as template to in situ build hierarchical pore structure ; the coordination interaction between Ti nodes and ligands can efficiently avoid the anatase generation by balancing the forming rates of Ti-OH and Si-OH. This synthetic strategy is of general applicability, and two different synthetic routes including traditional hydrothermal process and steam assisted crystallization (SAC) procedure are successfully adopted. The obtained hydrothermal TS-1 and SAC anatase-free samples all possess abundant intercrystalline mesopores of 20–50 nm and even macropores between 50 and 150 nm, improving the conversion over 25 % for 1‑hexene epoxidation than TS-1 sample prepared by conventional route. The influences of the amount of Ti MOFs precursor and the crystallization process are studied in detail, and possible synthesis mechanisms are proposed. This MOFs-induced strategy might open up an avenue for the rational design of ideal and hierarchical zeolite to boost the catalytic efficiency.

This study aimed to examine whether the administration of losartan can prevent acute elevation of pulmonary arterial pressure (AEPAP) induced by endovascular ethanol injection and to assess its related mechanisms. Male swine were selected and performed with absolute ethanol endovascular injection. Saline was used as the negative control. Losartan was administered preoperatively. Pulmonary arterial pressure (PAP), femoral arterial pressure (FAP) and heart rate (HR) were monitored during operations. Venous plasma and pulmonary artery (PA) tissue were harvested for analyses. Protein level was detected by Western blotting and ELISA, whereas qRT-PCR was used in mRNA detection. H & E staining and immunohistochemistry were conducted to evaluate histopathology. Ethanol injection elevated PAP in swine. The concentration of RAS ligands was elevated in plasma (all P < 0.0001) but not in PA. The level of oxidative stress increased in both plasma and PA. MRNA level of AT1R ( P < 0.01, 95% CI: 0.251–1.006), not AT2R increased in PA. Losartan failed to inhibit AEPAP after all sessions of ethanol injection, and partially reversed the ethanol-induced PA remodeling. The P38 MAPK was activated after ethanol injection and could be inhibited by losartan ( P < 0.01, 95% CI: −0.391 to −0.164). Ethanol also promoted the translocation of the P40-PHOX/P47-PHOX/P67-PHOX complex and the activation of NOX, which was independent from RAS. Endovascular ethanol injection can induce AEPAP mainly by activating RAS and P38 MAPK signaling. Losartan can partially prevent AEPAP and vascular remodeling owing to the promotion of NOX activity by ethanol.

This study aimed to explore the changes in phytochemical composition and inflammatory response of Camellia vietnamensis oil (CO) during refining. Four refined CO samples [degummed (DGO), deacidified (DAO), decolorized (DCO), and deodorized (DOO)] were prepared from crude CO (CCO). Five CO samples were measured for their composition of fatty acids , sterols, tocopherols , polyphenols, and oxidation products as well as anti-inflammatory activity in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced THP-1 macrophages. The content of phytochemicals was significantly decreased with the deepening of the refining degree, especially after deacidification. CCO and DGO showed anti-inflammatory activity by inhibiting the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and activation of NF-κB induced by LPS. Deacidification and decolorization of CO decreased its anti-inflammatory activity. The accumulation of oxidation products after deodorization in CO aggravated the inflammatory response. Trans -cinnamic, kaempferol , and protocatechuic acid in CO were crucial for their anti-inflammatory effects. These findings underlined that moderate refinement is suggested to retain its bioactive ingredients and anti-inflammatory ability.

By taking advantage of a microwave and molten-salt co-assisted boro/carbothermal reduction method (MSM-BCTR) and cheap raw materials such as HfO2/ZrO2, B4C and amorphous carbon, three types of (HfxZr(1−x))B2 (x = 0.25, 0.50 and 0.75) solid-solution powders with a single-crystalline rod-like morphology, high compositional uniformity, long lengths of 27.8–41.6 μm and high aspect ratios of 10.1–17.2 were successfully synthesized for the first time. And the required temperature conditions of 1100 °C for 20 min were significantly milder than that required by the molten-salt-assisted reduction method even using strong but high-price elemental boron as a reducing agent. These results demonstrated that the specific MSM-BCTR conditions characterized by molten-salt medium and microwave heating were capable of greatly enhancing not only the kinetics but also the thermodynamic favorabilities of the reactions for synthesizing HfB2 and ZrB2 as well as their solid solutions ((HfxZr(1−x))B2). More interestingly, the investigation on the crystalline growth mechanism of (HfxZr1−x)B2 indicated that under the MSM-BCTR conditions, residual amorphous carbon played an important role in enhancing the oriented growth of (HfxZr(1−x))B2, by preferential adsorption onto their {001} crystal planes and therefore greatly promoting corresponding specific surface energies. This study was expected to provide a feasible way of highly-efficiently and cost-effectively synthesizing ultra-high temperature ceramic powders with a highly-crystalline structure and uniform anisotropic morphology, which were favorable for promoting the oxidation resistance and toughness of their sintered products.

SnSe, possessing strong lattice anharmonicity and structural anisotropy, has attracted massive attention in thermoelectric conversion. Herein, we demonstrate that simultaneously optimized electrical and thermal transport properties are achieved in SnS 2 -alloyed SnSe polycrystalline materials , which were fabricated via sintering the mixture of solution-synthesized SnSe microplates and SnS 2 nanoplates. Resulting from the increased carrier concentration, p-type (SnSe) 1– x (SnS 2 ) x ( x = 0.5%, 1%) samples obtain much-improved power factor between 300 K and 373 K, e.g. 0.72 mW m –1 K –2 at 300 K for (SnSe) 0.99 (SnS 2 ) 0.01 , which is enhanced by 53% compared to that of SnSe. Additionally, the existing point defects and planar defects effectively strengthen phonon scattering, thus reducing the lattice thermal conductivity , for example, 0.47 W m –1 K –1 at 773 K for the x = 0.02 sample. Eventually, a maximum zT of 0.80 at 823 K and an average zT of 0.52 over 300 – 823 K are obtained in the (SnSe) 0.99 (SnS 2 ) 0.01 sample, which are increased by 33% and 45% compared to those of SnSe, respectively. This study demonstrates a secondary phase alloying strategy to synergistically optimize the electrical and thermal properties of polycrystalline SnSe.

A series of hierarchical SAPO-11 molecular sieves synthesized by adding mesoporogens with different alkyl chain lengths were prepared. The synthesized hierarchical SAPO-11s were characterized by XRD, SEM, N2 adsorption–desorption, TEM, NH3-TPD and Py-IR. The results showed that the physicochemical properties of the hierarchical SAPO-11s change with the increase of the alkyl chain length, and the hierarchical SAPO-11 molecular sieve synthesized with DTAB has the largest external surface area and pore volume, and the most medium and strong B acid sites. Furthermore, the 1-octene hydroisomerization reaction on Ni catalysts supported on hierarchical SAPO-11 was investigated and the experimental results showed that the alkyl chain length of the mesoporogen has an obvious influence on the hydroisomerization selectivity. The hierarchical Ni/SAPO-11 catalyst synthesized using DTAB has the highest selectivity of C8 isomers and the lowest cracking selectivity. These results indicate that DTAB is the most suitable mesoporogen for the synthesis of hierarchical SAPO-11 molecular sieves for 1-octene hydroisomerization.

Fermented meat possesses plenty of microbial resources. In this study, a novel exopolysaccharide (EPS) secreted by the extreme salt-tolerant Bacillus subtilis LR-1 was researched. The optimal extraction conditions of EPS in fermentation broth (4 °C precipitation temperature, 80 mL/dL ethanol concentration, and 12 h precipitation time for maximum yield of 53.43 g/L) were determined through response surface methodology. The structural component of BL-P1, a purified polysaccharide, was glucose (82.95%) and mannose (13.58%), with an average molecular weight of 41.11 kDa by HPLC and HPGPC analysis. Congo red assay, FT-IR and NMR suggested that BL-P1 was a multi-branched hexasaccharide repeating unit with a tertiary helical structure. BL-P1 was mainly composed of 1,4,6-α-D-Glcp, 1,4-β-D-Glcp, 1,2-α-D-Manp, 1,3-β-D-Glcp, and T-α-D-Glcp at different locations, and contained a backbone fragment of →4,6)-α-D-Glcp-(1→4)-β-D-Glcp-(1→. The result of antioxidant activity showed that BL-P1 displayed strong quenching capacities on DPPH (77.65%) and hydroxyl radicals (93.23%). Additionally, the rheological behavior of BL-P1 showed thermal stability both during heating and subsequent cooling process and under the conditions of high concentration of NaCl and CaCl 2 , and had good synergistic thickening performance with gellan gum. In general, BL-P1 screened from the extreme salt-tolerant Bacillus subtilis LR-1 exhibited the potential application as a natural antioxidant and additive in functional food and related industries.

Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) is a typical persistent organic pollutant that is widely detected in the environment. Despite the significant efforts put into its mineralisation , there is still a lack of microorganism resources that can completely mineralise HBCD. Stable isotope analysis revealed that the Citrobacter sp . Y3 can use [ 13 C]HBCD as its sole carbon source and degrade or even mineralise it into 13 CO 2 , with a maximum conversion rate of 100% in approximately 14 days. Strain Y3 could completely mineralise HBCD, which it used as its only carbon source, and six debromination enzymes related to HBCD degradation were found in Y3, including haloalkane dehalogenase (DhaA), haloacid dehalogenase (HAD), etc. A functional gene named HBCD-hd-1 , encoding a HAD, was found to be upregulated during HBCD degradation and heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli . Recombinant E. coli with the HBCD-hd-1 gene transformed the typical intermediate 4-bromobutyric acid to 4-hydroxybutanoic acid and showed excellent degradation performance on HBCD, accompanied by nearly 100% bromine (Br) ion generation. The expression of HBCD-hd-1 in Y3 rapidly accelerated the biodegradation of HBCD. With HBCD as its sole carbon source, strain Y3 could potentially degrade HBCD, especially in a low-nutrient environment.

Spatiotemporal delivery of nanoparticles (NPs) at the “cellular level” is critical for nanomedicine, which is expected to deliver as much cytotoxic drug into cancer cells as possible when NPs accumulate in tumors. However, macrophages and cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that are present within tumors limit the efficiency of spatiotemporal delivery. To overcome this limitation, glutathion pulse therapy is designed to promote reduction-sensitive Larotaxel (LTX) prodrug NPs to escape the phagocytosis of macrophages and penetrate through the stromal barrier established by CAFs in the murine triple negative breast cancer model. This therapy improves the penetration of NPs in tumor tissues as well as the accumulation of LTX in cancer cells, and remodels the immunosuppressive microenvironment to synergize PD-1 blockade therapy. More importantly, a method is established that can directly observe the biodistribution of NPs between different cells in vivo to accurately quantify the target drugs accumulated in these cells, thereby advancing the spatiotemporal delivery research of NPs at the “cellular level.”

The increasing demand for neodymium (III) and samarium (III) due to their extensive high-tech applications has drawn much attention to their recovery. In this work, the copper-based metal-organic framework HKUST-1 was prepared and used for the adsorption of neodymium (III) and samarium (III) in the media of an aqueous solution. The maximum adsorption capacity of the material for neodymium (III) and samarium (III) was 284.11 and 503.45 mg g −1 at a pH of 5.5, respectively. The adsorption removal rate could achieve nearly 100% at the solid-to-liquid ratio of 1.0 g L −1 , which is relatively excellent among such adsorbents used for rare earth elements uptake. The mechanism and reversibility of neodymium (III) and samarium (III) adsorption were systematically investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transforms infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectra, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, suggesting that the mechanism for the adsorption was ion exchange and complexation between trivalent rare-earth ions and the oxygen atom in the hydroxyl group. The reason behind the material displaying a more robust affinity for samarium (III) may be caused by the energy difference between f n and f n+1 states of samarium (III) was larger than that of neodymium (III), thus forming stronger covalent bonding. Graphical abstract HKUST-1 exhibited high adsorption capacity towards Nd (III) and Sm (III). The reason behind the material displaying a more robust affinity for Sm(III) was caused by that the energy difference between f n and f n+1 states of Sm(III) was larger than that of Nd(III), thus forming stronger covalent bonding.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is marked by a fast deterioration of the kidney function that may be caused by a variety of factors. Recently, although our group found that PPBICA alleviated programmed cell death in AKI, poor water solubility limited its bioavailability. In this research, we screened a series of derivatives and found that C-316-1 had the best suppressive effect on preventing necroptosis and inflammation in cisplatin- and ischemia/reperfusion-induced AKI in vitro and in vivo with lower toxicity and better water solubility. Mass spectrometry results showed that C-316-1 bound to heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90), which was further confirmed by molecular docking and surface plasmon resonance. Additionally, the Hsp90 expression was upregulated in the blood and tissues of AKI patients. We discovered that C-316-1 decreased the RIPK1 protein level without affecting its mRNA expression. The proteasome inhibitor, MG132 restored the level of RIPK1 reduced by C-316-1, suggesting that C-316-1 limits necroptosis by promoting the degradation of RIPK1 rather than by reducing its production. Immunoprecipitation further showed that pretreatment with C-316-1 disrupted the Hsp90-Cdc37 protein–protein Interactions (PPIs). Thereby, C-316-1 inhibited the Hsp90-Cdc37 complex formation and led to a significant decrease in RIPK1, which in turn reduced necroptosis. Moreover, C-316-1 treatment did not protect against kidney injury in vivo and in vitro when Hsp90 was knocked down and R46, E47, and S50 in Cdc37 binding site of Hsp90 might form an important active pocket with C-316-1. These findings suggest that C-316-1 is a potential therapeutic agent against RIPK1-Mediated Necroptosis in AKI.

In this paper, a bio-based flame retardant PA-AR is synthesized, which endows PLA with good flame retardant and crystallization properties, and at the same time promotes the biodegradability of PLA. Only 1 wt% PA-AR makes the LOI value of PLA reach 26.8% and reaches UL-94 V-0 level. In addition, 1 wt% PA-AR increases the crystallinity of PLA to 23.4%, which increased by 460% compared with PLA. Further, due to the increase of crystallinity, the tensile strength is also improved. Besides, the addition of PA-AR can greatly promote the degradation performance of PLA under specific biological conditions. This work proposed a novel method to obtain completely biodegradable flame retardant composites.
