Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a common and severe complication of diabetes. A multitude of factors are involved in the pathogenesis of DCM including chronic inflammation and oxidative stress . We have recently shown that compound LF10 prevents inflammatory responses in an animal model of lung injury. In the present study, we explored the protective effects and mechanism of LF10 against DCM using a mouse model of streptozotocin-induced diabetes and high glucose (HG)-challenged cultured cardiomyocytes. We show that LF10 suppressed diabetes-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and fibrosis , which was accompanied by preservation of cardiac function in mice. Mechanistically, LF10 prevented increases in the levels of pro-inflammatory molecules and oxidative stress under in vitro and in vivo diabetic conditions. Moreover, LF10 restored HG-downregulated sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) in cardiomyocytes and prevented HG-induced activation of MAPKs. Using specific small-molecule regulators, we found that SIRT1 was an upstream signal of MAPKs. In conclusion, LF10 inhibited ROS and MAPKs-mediated inflammation by restoring SIRT1, and prevented development of DCM. LF10 targeted both oxidative stress and inflammation, two tightly interconnected pathogenic pathways, which makes LF10 a highly advantageous therapeutic drug potential.

Cobalt has been applied as liners in current Cu interconnect and even as interconnect conductors in next-generation interconnect. In this work, effects of corrosion inhibitors 1, 2, 4-triazole (TAZ) on Co chemical corrosion, galvanic corrosion between Cu and Co, and Co polishing properties in the H2O2 based acidic slurry have been systematically investigated. Results show that 5 mM TAZ yields a low static etching and removal rate with a selectivity of about 1: 1 for Co to Cu, applicable for Co barrier/ Cu CMP, while 100 mM TAZ yields a high removal rate with same selectivity, applicable for Co via and trench CMP. It demonstrates that TAZ can effectively inhibit the galvanic corrosion between Co and Cu. Additionally, the adsorption behavior of TAZ on Co surface is both physisorption and chemisorption. In case of 5 mM TAZ, self-assembly TAZ molecules absorb on native Co oxide. In case of 100 mM TAZ, more soluble Co-TAZ complexes form, which reduces the stability of the passivation layer and results in pitting corrosion.

Here, we present a rapid and general fabrication methodology for fluorescent carbon dots (CDs) via injecting various oxygen-containing organic solvents including acetone , ethanol, ethyl acetate, tetrahydrofuran , and diethyl ether into hot concentrated sulfuric acid. All these small organic molecules are recognized as common, cheap, and abundant carbon precursors, which can convert into CDs just in 1 min through protonation , polymerization and aromatization. The as-prepared CDs with disordered amorphous cores and plentiful oxygenous groups show fascinating photoluminescence features, that can be used for sensitive and selective detection of hemoglobin (Hb) based on fluorescence quenching. The linear detection range is estimated to be 2–360 nM and the limit of detection is as low as 0.79 nM. After careful investigations, the inner filter effect is proposed to explain the sensing mechanism because the absorption band of Hb fully covers the emission spectrum of CDs and the fluorescence lifetime of CDs remains nearly constant after addition of Hb. The sensor is successfully applied for Hb detection in human blood samples, exhibiting a great potential for quantitative analysis of Hb in complex biological matrices.

A novel titanosilicate zeolite was synthesized by a sequential treatment of ERB-1 with deboronation and atom-planting method to develop an epoxide catalyst. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and the diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform (DRIFT) characteristic results reveal that the silanol hydroxyl nests generated by deboronation process are further consumed by the dehydrochlorination of TiCl4 during the atom-planting treatment. At the same time, the titanium species are incorporated into the framework of MWW structure. The energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), ultraviolet-visible light (UV-vis), and ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRRS) characterization results reveal that the amount and coordination states of the incorporated Ti species can be controlled by the atom-planting treatment time and temperature. The catalytic performance of the new titanosilicates in the epoxidation of 1-hexene with H2O2 and of cyclohexene with tert-butyl hydroperoxide is compared for the efficiency of Ti species in the hydrophilic and hydrophobic system. The catalytic results show the framework tetrahedral coordinated titanium species are more efficient for epoxidation than extra-framework octahedral Ti species.

Abstract A new route to synthesis hierarchical Ti-rich TS-1 with uniform intracrystalline mesopores, uniform crystal size and the higher Ti content has been developed by using the environmental-friendly and cheap surfactant Triton X-100 as the assisted template agent and (NH 4 ) 2 CO 3 as crystallization-mediating agent. In this way, the surface area and pore volume of the resulting materials can be adjusted by the Triton X-100 content. The catalytic properties of the Nano-size hierarchical Ti-rich TS-1 were investigated by hydroxylation of benzene to phenol with H 2 O 2 as oxidizing agent and deionized water as solvent. Due to the combination of hierarchical pores and high titanium content, the hierarchical Ti-rich TS-1 shows improved catalytic activity in the oxidation of benzene. Graphical Abstract

We report the synthesis of Zn/ZSM-5 particles coated with a silicalite-1 zeolite shell (core–shell Zn/ZSM-5@silicalite-1) via grinding of the raw silica source materials with TPAOH and Zn/ZSM-5, followed by solvent-free crystallization at 180 °C for 72 h. The product was well characterized by the XRD patterns, N2 sorption isotherms, SEM images, and TEM images. Because of the core–shell structure, the Zn/ZSM-5@silicalite-1 sample exhibits high selectivities for benzene, toluene, and xylenes in the conversion of methanol, compared with those over ZSM-5 and Zn/ZSM-5 samples. The solvent-free synthesis offers an alternative method for preparing core–shell Zn/ZSM-5@silicalite-1 catalysts.

Hemp fiber, as a kind of renewable textile fiber, has evoked much interest due to its excellent properties in various fields. It has been investigated in just one step to finish the process of chemo-enzymatic degumming and modification of hemp fiber, which is done in acetic acidsodium acetate buffer solution containing laccase (6.0 g), hemicellulase (0.3 g) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine-1-oxyl radical (0.3 g) under a mild condition (pH 5, 50C). The degumming effects of different batches of raw hemp fibers were also discussed. We found that the residual rate, fineness, length and tensile strength of degummed fiber were 15–27%, 9.00–24.00 dtex, 14.00–19.00 cm and 3.8–5.1 cN/dtex, respectively. Meanwhile, some of the oxidized functional groups were introduced into degummed fiber, which improved the moisture absorption and water retention value of the hemp fiber. The hemp fiber treated by this process could be further improved and then applied in the textile industry.

The viscosities ( η ) of CO 2 -loaded 3-(dimethylamino)propan-1-ol (3DMA1P) aqueous solutions, CO 2 -unloaded and CO 2 -loaded 2-(ethylamino)ethanol (EAE)- 3DMA1P aqueous solutions were measured by using the NDJ-5S rotational viscometer . The temperature ranged from 303.2 K to 323.2 K. The mass fractions of 3DMA1P and EAE ranged from 0.3 to 0.5 and 0.01 to 0.03 respectively. The Weiland equation was used to model the viscosity and the calculated results agreed well with the experimental results. The effects of mass fractions of amines ( w ), temperature ( T ) and CO 2 loading ( α ) on viscosity were demonstrated on the basis of experiments and calculations.

Background Duck viral hepatitis (DVH) is an acute disease of young ducklings with no effective veterinary drugs for treatment. Gynostemma pentaphyllum is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine that plays an important role in the treatment of various diseases. Gypenoside (GP), one of the main ingredients of Gynostemma pentaphyllum, was reported with good hepatoprotective effects. However, its low solubility limits its application in the clinics. To improve its solubility and bioactivity, a phosphorylated derivative of gypenoside (pGP) was prepared by the sodium trimetaphosphate-sodium tripolyphosphate (STMP-STPP) method. An infrared spectroscopy method was applied to analyse the structures of GP and pGP. Then, a methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric assay was applied to study the hepatocyte protective efficacy of these two drugs against duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1) infection, and qPCR, TUNEL labelling and flow cytometry methods were used to study the relevant hepatocyte protective in vitro.Results The infrared spectroscopy detection results showed that the phosphorylation modification of GP was successful. The MTT colorimetric assay results showed that both GP and pGP possessed good hepatocyte protective efficacy in vitro, and pGP performed better than GP when the drug was added before or after virus inoculation. Furthermore, the qPCR results revealed that both drugs could effectively inhibit the adsorption (when adding GP and pGP pre-virus inoculation), replication and release of DHAV-1, and the viral inhibition rate of pGP was greater than that of GP. The subsequent TUNEL labelling and flow cytometry assays showed that both GP and pGP could significantly inhibit duck embryo hepatocyte apoptosis induced by DHAV-1, and the inhibition effect of pGP was much stronger than that of GP.Conclusion sGP exerts good hepatocyte protective efficacy not only by inhibiting the proliferation of DHAV-1 but also by inhibiting duck embryonic hepatocyte apoptosis induced by DHAV-1, and phosphorylation modification significantly improves the antiviral and the anti-apoptotic effects of GP. Therefore, pGP has the potential to be developed into a novel drug against DHAV-1 infection.

To assess the mechanism of the pharmacokinetic interaction between piperacillin and tazobactam , renal excretion and pharmacokinetic studies of piperacillin/tazobactam were investigated in normal and bacteremia rats. A bacteremia model was established to investigate the pharmacokinetic properties of piperacillin and tazobactam under different conditions. Renal slices were taken to examine the uptake of piperacillin and tazobactam. Pharmacokinetic studies of β-lactamase in rats were performed to study the contribution of rOat1/3 to the inhibition of tazobactam on β-lactamase. The AUC (from 2.93 ± 0.58 to 6.52 ± 1.44 mg·min/ml) and the plasma clearance ( CL P ) (from 2.41 ± 1.20 to 0.961 ± 0.212 ml/min/kg) of tazobactam were both altered after the intravenous coadministration of piperacillin and tazobactam in the bacteremia rats. The renal clearance ( CL R ) of tazobactam decreased from 1.30 ± 0.50 to 0.361 ± 0.043 ml/min/kg. In summary, there was a beneficial interaction between piperacillin and tazobactam mediated by rOat1 and rOat3. Piperacillin enhances the inhibitory effect of tazobactam on β-lactamase through the inhibition of rOat1 and rOat3 in rats. The contribution rate of rOat1/3 for the synergistic effect was 20% when the two drugs were coadministered.

Herein, graphite nanosheets (GN) were first prepared through simple liquid-phase exfoliation of graphite powder in N, N -dimethylacetamide (DMAC). After then, ultrasmall Cu-based metal organic frame (HKUST-1) nanoparticles (less than 5 nm) were in-situ anchored on the surface of graphite nanosheets with high degree of dispersion. Due to the intrinsic structural advantages of the as-synthesized HKUST-1 nanoparticles decorated graphite nanosheets (HKUST-1/GN) hybrids, including superior electron transfer ability and the greatly enhanced adsorption property, HKUST-1/GN shows excellent electrochemical sensing performance toward DNA damage biomarker 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine with fast detection speed (∼240 s), wide linear window (10 nM–1 μM), high sensitivity (346857 μA mM −1 cm −2 ), low detection limit (∼2.5 nM), and good reproducibility. As a result, a highly sensitive electrochemical sensing platform for the detection of DNA damage biomarker 8-hydroxy-2’-deoxyguanosine was fabricated basing the as-prepared HKUST-1/GN hybrids. What is more, the developed electrochemical method was successfully used for the detection of real samples and exhibited satisfied result.

Malignant tumors posed severe threat to human health, and various efforts have been contributed towards assaying tumor markers, howbeit, achieving to identify the multiple targets by one single analytical mode is in demand. Hereby, three kinds of aptamer-functionalized silver and silver/gold nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs and DNA-Ag/AuNCs) were originally synthesized, and possessed the specific recognition ability for their corresponding targets. Specifically, the fluorescence of AgNCs or Ag/AuNCs was quenched by introducing graphene oxide (GO), and more competitive interactions between tumor markers and their aptamers occurred with the targets added, thus facilitating their fluorescence recovered. Based on AgNCs or Ag/AuNCs cooperating with GO, this sensing mode was subsequently employed for detecting mucin 1 in a linear range of 1.33–200 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.18 ng/mL. Meanwhile, this method was also applied to examine carcinoembryonic antigen and cancer antigen 125, and showed the linear range of 6.7 ng/mL–13.3 μg/mL with a detection limit of 3.18 ng/mL for CEA, while CA125 sensing acquired a linear range of 2 ng/mL–6.7 μg/mL accompanied by a detection limit of 1.26 ng/mL. Besides, this strategy provided the potential ways to identify other tumor markers by designing their corresponding nanoclusters with the aptamers.
