Human organic anion transporting polypeptides (OATPs) 1B1 and 1B3 are two closely related transporters. However, OATP1B1- and 1B3-mediated estrone-3-sulfate (E3S) uptake can be differentially modulated by quercetin-3- O -α-L-arabinopyranosyl(1 → 2)-α-L-rhamnopyranoside (QAR), a compound found in some fruits such as jujube. In this study, we isolated QAR from jujube leaves and investigated the molecular mechanism underlying the activation of OATP1B3-mediated E3S uptake by QAR through functional characterization on a range of chimeric transporters derived from OATP1B3 and molecular modeling. Our findings revealed that the residue Ser545 in transmembrane domain 10 (TM10) is crucial for the activation of OATP1B3 by QAR. Kinetic analyses showed that QAR enhances OATP1B3-mediated E3S uptake at low substrate concentrations due to an increase in substrate binding affinity. Mutational analysis and molecular modeling suggested that amino acid residues with smaller side chains at position 545 are vital for the activation of OATP1B3, as bulkier residues could lead to steric collision with E3S. While QAR stimulates OATP1B3-mediated E3S uptake, it inhibits OATP1B3-mediated estradiol-17β-glucuronide/rosuvastatin uptake, indicating that the effect of QAR on OATP1B3's function is substrate-dependent. In summary, Ser545 within TM10 is essential for the activation of OATP1B3-mediated E3S uptake by QAR.

At present, it is still challenging to fabricate anode materials for lithium-ion batteries with excellent electrochemical performances by simple process on a large scale. In this paper, by using a conventional solid state reaction technique along with a mechanical ball milling method, an unique Li 3 Fe(MoO 4 ) 3 @C composite was synthesized. The amorphous carbon introduction is helpful in mitigating the volume expansion and enhancing the structural stability and electrochemical performance of the composite materials. After 100 cycles at 200 mA g −1 , the Li 3 Fe(MoO 4 ) 3 @C composite electrode maintained a high reversible capacity of 739 mAh/g with an initial Coulombic efficiency of 82 %. In addition, the rate performances of the composite electrode is also remarkable, and the reversible capacity is up to 740 mAh/g at 1600 mA g −1 . This work can provide inspiration for the preparation of molybdenum based transition metal oxide composites with high electrochemical performances for other alkali metal secondary batteries.

Three novel dithieno[3,2- f :2′,3′- h ]quinoxaline-based organic dyes ( IQ-C, IQ-D and IQ-F ) with three π-spacers were synthesized and developed for dye sensitized solar cells, where dithieno[3,2- f :2′,3′- h ]quinoxaline was used as electron-withdrawing π-spacers, and 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline or dibenzo[ a,c ]phenazine as auxiliary electron-withdrawing π-spacers. The dye IQ-D with 2,3-diphenylquinoxaline as auxiliary electron-withdrawing π-spacer exhibited higher photocurrent ( J sc ) and photovoltage ( V oc ) than that of the dye IQ-C with 2,3-bis(4-(octyloxy)phenyl)quinoxaline as the additional electron-withdrawing π-spacer, due to the larger adsorption amount of IQ-D . The dye IQ-F with a rigid conjugated dibenzo[ a,c ]phenazine as additional electron-withdrawing π-spacer showed the highest efficiency of 6.54% under AM 1.5 G irradiation. It was demonstrated that the π-spacers influence the photovoltaic performance of the dithieno[3,2- f :2′,3′- h ]quinoxaline-based organic dyes significantly. The results indicated that the dyes with three π-spacers are promising candidates for efficient dye-sensitized solar cells.

The development of emitting materials that present both photoluminescence (PL) and X-ray excited optical luminescence has recently been attracting rising research interest for visualization applications. We introduced in this study the hydrothermally crystallized (Sr 1- x Mn x ) 5 (PO 4 ) 3 F 1- y Cl y ( x = 0–0.05, y = 0–0.40) nanorods with favorable PL and X-ray excited optical luminescence properties after composition modulating. The effects of solution pH and Cl − incorporation on structure and morphology of the products were firstly unveiled. (Sr 1- x Mn x ) 5 (PO 4 ) 3 F gives green emission at ∼548 nm ( 4 T 1 ( 4 G) → 6 A 1 ( 6 S)) under either 402 nm excitation or X-ray irradiation, and the optimal PL and X-ray excited optical luminescence were observed at x = 0.03. The replacement of F − by larger Cl − led to the generation of an amount of Frenkel defects (the dislocated F − and anion vacancies V F . ) along the c -axis, benefit from which the (Sr 0.97 Mn 0.03 ) 5 (PO 4 ) 3 F 1- y Cl y samples present enhanced PL and X-ray excited optical luminescence intensities by factors of 1.6 and 7.4, respectively, and the corresponding optimal y values are determined to be 0.20 and 0.30. Fluorescence decay analysis found steadily shortened fluorescent lifetime for Mn 2+ at higher Mn 2+ and Cl − concentrations, and the underlying mechanism was discussed. The (Sr,Mn) 5 (PO 4 ) 3 (F,Cl) apatite material, with enhanced PL and X-ray excited optical luminescence, may find novel applications for both lighting and scintillating.

A concise ‘one-pot’ synthesis of a variety of 4-substituted 1,5-diaryl-1 H -pyrazole-3-carboxylates has been developed in moderate to good yields with excellent regioselectivity . Less cost lithium tert -butoxide has been identified as a base for sterically hindered Claisen condensation to efficiently generate the labile 3-substituted 4-aryl-2,4-diketoesters. Furthermore, extensive studies lead to a ‘one-pot’ process by combination of the Claisen condensation and the Knorr reaction for the synthesis of highly valuable 4-substituted 1,5-diaryl-1 H -pyrazole-3-carboxylates.

The compressed liquid viscosities of 2-methylpentane, 3-methylpentane, and 2,3-dimethylbutane were measured using a vibrating-wire viscometer over the temperature range of (273 to 343) K and at pressures up to 40 MPa. The combined expanded uncertainty of the reported viscosity is about 2% with a confidence level of 0.95 (k = 2). An empirical Andrade–Tait equation was used to correlate the viscosity as a function of temperature and pressure with average absolute percentage deviations of 0.19%, 0.23%, and 0.25%, respectively.

Exploration of new iodates is crucial due to their splendid applications in the nonlinear optical (NLO) field. Two new IIIA metal iodate–selenates, namely, [M(OH)2]3(IO3)(SeO4)·H2O (M = Ga and In), have been successfully synthesized using the hexagonal tungsten oxide (HTO) framework as an ideal structural template. Isostructural [M(OH)2]3(IO3)(SeO4)·H2O (M = Ga and In) crystallize in the polar space group P63mc. Their structures feature ∞[MO2(OH)2]3− (M = Ga, In) layers composed of corner-shared circular M3O6(OH)9 trimeric units based on MO2(OH)4 octahedra. The SeO4 groups are capped above half of the trimeric units of the layers while the IO3 groups are capped below the remaining trimeric units of the layers. Both compounds exhibit moderate phase-matchable second-harmonic generation (SHG) responses (2.9× and 3.8× KH2PO4) under 1064 nm laser radiation and the same band gap of 3.38 eV. Results of theoretical calculations revealed that their SHG effects originated from the synergistic effect of MO6, IO3 and SeO4 groups. So far reports on iodate–selenates are scarce and this work provides a new perspective to design new NLO materials through polar HTO-type topologies and a mixed-anionic strategy.

Liquid–liquid equilibrium (LLE) data for water + 2-methyl-3-buten-2-ol + (isopropyl ether or 4-methylpentan-2-ol or p-xylene or ethyl acetate) ternary systems was measured at 308.2 K under 101.3 kPa. Distribution coefficients and separation factors were obtained and applied to evaluate the extraction capacity of selected solvents. Furthermore, the experimental LLE data were successfully correlated by the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) and universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) models, which showed a root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of less than 0.78% for all systems.

Flavonoids are a class of compounds that exist in nature with the structure of 2-phenyl-chromone. In Chinese traditional medicine , herbal drugs containing flavonoids are widely used for the treatment of inflammation, cardiovascular disease, tumor and so on. In this study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect and related mechanisms of a novel synthetic flavonoid, (E)-1-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-3-(4-nitrophenyl)-prop-2-en-1-one (ETH) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulated macrophages. Our results showed that ETH inhibited LPS-induced TNF-α and IL-6 release in a dose-dependent manner, and decreased TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and iNOS mRNA production. LPS-induced expression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was also significantly attenuated by ETH. Pretreatment with ETH reduced the I-κBα phosphorylation, p65 nuclear translocation as well as NF-κB-dependent transcriptional activity. In addition, ETH exhibited a significant protection against LPS-induced inflammatory mortality in mice. Taken together, these findings suggest that ETH can inhibit LPS-induced inflammation via suppressing NF-κB signaling pathway , indicating that ETH may be a potential anti-inflammatory agent.

NASICON-structure Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) is a potential cathode for sodium ion battery , which however needs nano-crystallization to improve its rate performance. On the other hand, most practical electrodes are fabricated through slurry printing process, which needs to control the particle size to avoid the falling of the composite. Herein, for practical high-loading electrode fabrication, the micro-nano architecture, i.e. the micro particle plus nano channels inside, is suggested in this paper. The micro-nano information about NVP is obtained through Ga + focused ion beam-scanning electron microscopy to reconstruct the 3D model of a single NVP particle, fully exhibiting the continuous nano channels inside the micro sphere . The as-obtained NVP/C sample in the micro size exhibits remarkable enhanced rate performance of 106, 104, 101, 96, 89, 70 and 44 mAh g −1 at rates of 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 C respectively, compared to the control sample in the nano size with the capacity of 106, 103, 85, 77 and 60 mAh g −1 at 2, 5, 10, 20 and 50 C respectively, meanwhile maintaining good adhesion towards Al foil and electrochemical performance at the areal loading of 10 mg cm −2 .

In this study, the trastuzumab-functionalized SK-BR-3 cell membrane-wrapped mesoporous silica nanoparticles loaded with pyrotinib (Tra-CM-MSN-PYR) were prepared for targeted therapy of HER2-positive breast cancer. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) characterization showed that MSN had a spherical morphology with mesoporous channels and that the structure of Tra-CM-MSN was a cell membrane (CM) layer successfully coated on the surface of MSN. A cellular uptake assay demonstrated that FITC-labeled Tra-CM-MSN were taken up by SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells, which illustrated that Tra-CM-MSN had good targeting ability compared with CM-MSN and MSN. In vivo imaging experiments demonstrated significant accumulation of FITC-labeled Tra-CM-MSN in tumor tissues, further proving that Tra-CM-MSN have superior targeting properties. Cell apoptosis experiments suggested that Tra-CM-MSN-PYR significantly inhibited the proliferation of SK-BR-3 breast cancer cells. The results of in vivo animal experiments also showed that Tra-CM-MSN-PYR significantly inhibited tumor growth. These results indicate that Tra-CM-MSN-PYR has potential application as a targeted therapy for HER2-positive breast cancer in the future.

The inherent low electronic conductivity of NASICON-type Na4MnV(PO4)3 (NMVP) impedes its use in advanced energy storage. Herein, we address this challenge by introducing a citric acid-derived carbon coating to elevate the material’s conductivity and electrochemical performance. By precisely tailoring the configuration of the carbon layer, we fabricated Na4MnV(PO4)3 encapsulated by a carbon coating (NMVP@C) and constructed a 3D hierarchical architecture with incorporated V(III) and Mn(II) states, which prompts the reversible redox reaction, augments Na+ storage capability, and mitigates volume expansion during cycling. The optimal cathode manifests superior rate capability and a long life span with 107.5 mA h g–1 at 1 C and 82.5% capacity retention over 5000 cycles at 20 C. The hard carbon//NMVP@C full cell confirms practical applicability with good electrochemical performance. This work underscores the pivotal interplay among the carbon layer, Na+ mobility, and structural integrity in NASICON cathodes, offering a pathway to develop high-performance and cost-effective cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries.
