Chimeric antigen receptor microglia (CAR-M)-mediated amyloid-β oligomers (AβO) phagocytosis shows great promise in Alzheimer's disease (AD) treatment, however, the limited AβO degradation of CAR-M compromises their anti-AβO potency. This work here reports an in situ engineered agonistic anti-C-type lectin domain containing 7 A (CLEC7A) nanobody to accelerate AβO degradation of CAR-M, augmenting their anti-AβO efficacy. Specifically, with the intranasal-delivered microglia-targeting lipid nanoparticles (LNP), this work generates an AβO-specific degradation-potentiated CAR-M by introducing dual mRNAs encoding AβO-specific CAR and anti-CLEC7A nanobody into the cerebral microglia. These data show that these engineered CAR-M exhibited superior phagocytic function and promoted intracellular AβO degradation via activating CLEC7A-spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) signaling pathway through the local secretion of anti-CLEC7A nanobody. In the APP/PS1 mouse model of AD, these in situ reprogrammed CAR-M significantly reduced cerebral Aβ levels, suppressed neuroinflammation, and restored cognitive function. In sum, these findings demonstrate that potentiating AβO degradation within CAR-M effectively alleviates AD pathology, providing a promising therapeutic strategy for AD with broad application in other neurodegenerative diseases.

It is a challenging work to design novel responsive materials by controlling the secondary structure of polypeptide , especially β-sheet. We designed and synthesized a novel dual responsive diblock copolymer of methyl poly (ethylene glycol)- b -poly (O-benzyl- l -threonine) (mPEG- b -PBnLT). The copolymer solutions exhibited unusual and reversible gel-to-sol-to-gel transition behavior with temperature, and the transition temperature window could be easily adjusted by changing copolymer concentration or PBnLT block length . It was confirmed that low temperature gel-to-sol transition was due to the disassembly of the preliminary β-sheet layered nano-assemblies that induced the transformation of self-organized morphology from nanosized fibrils to spherical aggregates, while the high temperature sol-to-gel transition was ascribed to the dehydration of PEG segments. The disassembly of β-sheet structures was caused by the change in the polarity of the pendant benzyl ether bond of PBnLT block in water with temperature. This stimuli-responsiveness of secondary self-assembled nanostructures and the corresponding change in macroscopic phase transition inspires a brand-new strategy for structural design and functional control of polypeptide materials.

Despite long-term development of LEDs, problems urgent to resolve is still existing. The most outstanding problem to tackle is luminescent stability at high temperature working situation. In this study, a novel type of β-NaYF 4 based phosphor incorporated with Eu 3+ and Tb 3+ is reported. A series of β-NaYF 4 :0.065Eu 3+ , x Tb 3+ ( x = 0.001, 0.002, 0.003, 0.004, 0.005) phosphors were synthesized by hydrothermal method . The sample β-NaYF 4 :0.065Eu 3+ ,0.002Tb 3+ possesses optimal luminescent property at room temperature. The mechanism of energy transfer from Tb 3+ to Eu 3+ ion is quadrupole-quadrupole interactions. The sample β-NaYF 4 :0.065Eu 3+ ,0.002Tb 3+ demonstrates zero thermal quenching (ZTQ) property at 303 K to 383 K. According to XRD and XPS characterizations, nonequivalent replacement between intrinsic ion Na + and Y 3+ were discovered, which finally leads to production of crystal defects. According to electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization and density functional theory (DFT) calculation, the type of crystal defect of β-NaYF 4 :0.065Eu 3+ ,0.002Tb 3+ is confirmed to be V Y vacancies which are the predominant defect of crystal. The depths and densities of defects were calculated according to data of thermoluminescence spectra (TL spectra). Crystal defects play the role of electrons traps that could store electrons. Electrons stored in traps will be excited to excitation state of Eu 3+ under the thermal stimulation to offset undesirable impact of thermal quenching (TQ), which leads to ZTQ property of the sample β-NaYF 4 :0.065Eu 3+ ,0.002Tb 3+ . The CRI and CCT of fabricated WLED are 3830 K and 84.1, respectively.

Storing reclaimed water via managed aquifer recharge (MAR) is an effective strategy for alleviating groundwater overdraft and achieving water resource recycling simultaneously. However, β-lactam antibiotics in the reclaimed water can induce stress on aquifer system, reshape microbial community, and affect the emergence and prevalence of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs). In this study, three sandy soil columns (H 1.5 m, ID 14 cm) were employed to simulate MAR, and synthetic reclaimed water containing either amoxicillin (AMO), ampicillin (AMP) or oxacillin (OXA) was continuously recharged for 120 d The temporal and spatial attenuation of β-lactams and nitrogen was studied, and microbial collaboration and the resistance mechanism were elaborated. Biodegradation is the main pathway for β-lactams elimination, AMO and AMP were eliminated when migrating 30 cm, while the attenuation of OXA experienced in the whole column with final removal efficiency of 82%. Moreover, refractory OXA induced more ARGs production, and approximately 10% and 13% higher than that of AMO and AMP columns. Efflux pump and antibiotics inactivation were the two major resistance mechanisms. NO 3 − -N gradually decreased (by 26%, 38%, and 49% for AMO, AMP, and OXA, respectively) along the recharge direction. Microbial co-occurrence network revealed that nitrogen-cycling bacteria were the keystone species in aquifer community, and ammonation provided NH 4 + -N for the nitrification process of ammonia-oxidizing archaea (AOA), promoting the further denitrification for nitrogen removal in MAR process. Nitrogen-cycling bacteria were the key and active ARG hosts, which could keep nitrogen transformation activity under antibiotics stress. In sum, nitrogen-cycling bacteria exhibited intimate collaboration and elastic resistance in response to the malnutrition environment and β-lactams exposure during MAR.

In recently year, cuprous oxide(Cu 2 O) has been proved to be an important photocatalyst for fast removal of contaminants. However, as we known that the single Cu 2 O cannot get the satisfactory degradation efficiency. Herein, a new photocatalyst was prepared by coating β-cyclodextrin on Cu 2 O(CuCD) under mild hydrothermal conditions, reducing the particle size of cuprous oxide from 200 nm to 40 nm. The as-prepared CuCD exhibit excellent photocatalytic activity , which degradation rate of tetracycline(TC), methylene orange(MO) and congo red(CR) increased by 2.0, 1.7 and 2.1 times, respectively, compared to pristine Cu 2 O in reaction system. This design confirms the synergistic effect of adsorption and photocatalysis due to the introduction of β-cyclodextrin on Cu 2 O, which can provide mass and electron transfer channels to accelerate the separation and migration of photogenerated electrons. Overall, this work provides an important step in developing Cu 2 O-based hybrids for wastewater treatment.

Organometallic nanozymes, organometallics of which mimic the cofactor of natural enzymes, have the advantages of tunable catalytic activity, high stability, and material variety. By assembling organometallics (catalytic site) on inorganic nanoparticles (support), organometallic nanozymes have been rationally designed, but modulating their assembly and activity remains a tough challenge. Here, we construct a photo-modulated organometallic nanozyme by anchoring azobenzene-modified triethylenetetramine (Azo-N4) to the surface of β-cyclodextrin-capped gold nanoparticles (AuNP@CDs) through host–guest interaction, followed by Zn(II) coordination to form organometallics. The catalytic site derives from the outer organometallic layer. The nanozyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of 4-nitrophenyl acetate to 4-nitrophenol and the catalytic signal is used to detect Zn(II). Due to the photoisomerization of azobenzene, the supramolecular assembly of host–guest interaction is modulated by light. The disassembly leads to cascade catalysis of AuNP@CDs-Azo-N4-Zn and the recovery of AuNP@CDs. Our study provides a new idea and reference for the rational design and activity modulation of organometallic nanozymes.

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have become promising accommodation for enzyme immobilization in recent years. However, the microporous nature of MOFs affects the accessibility of large molecules, resulting in a significant decline in biocatalysis efficiency. Herein, a novel strategy is reported to construct macroporous MOFs by metal competitive coordination and oxidation with induced defect structure using a transition metal (Fe2+) as a functional site. The feasibility of in situ encapsulating β-glucosidase (β-G) within the developed macroporous MOFs endows an enzyme complex (β-G@MOF-Fe) with remarkably enhanced synergistic catalysis ability. The 24 h hydrolysis rate of β-G@MOF-Fe (with respect to cellobiose) is as high as approximately 99.8%, almost 32.2 times that of free β-G (3.1%). Especially, the macromolecular cellulose conversion rate of β-G@MOF-Fe reached 90% at 64 h, while that of β-G@MOFs (most micropores) was only 50%. This improvement resulting from the expansion of pores (significantly increased at 50–100 nm) can provide enough space for the hosted biomacromolecules and accelerate the diffusion rate of reactants. Furthermore, unexpectedly, the constructed β-G@MOF-Fe showed a superior heat resistance of up to 120 °C, attributing to the new strong coordination bond (Fe2+–N) formation through the metal competitive coordination. Therefore, this study offers new insights to solve the problem of the high-temperature macromolecular substrate encountered in the actual reaction.

In this study, we systematically compared the differences in the interactions of β-lactoglobulin (LG) with three mono-caffeoylquinic acids (MCQAs: 3-CQA, 4-CQA, and 5-CQA) and three dicaffeoylquinic acids (DCQAs: 3,4-DCQA, 3,5-DCQA, and 4,5-DCQA). Based on molecular docking techniques, it was concluded that the non-covalent binding of all six caffeoylquinic acids to LG was dominated by hydrophobic forces, among which the binding ability of DCQAs was stronger. The antioxidant assay revealed that caffeoylquinic acid significantly improved the antioxidant properties of LG, and the best antioxidant properties were achieved with 4,5-DCQA. The DPPH radical scavenging ability was increased by approximately 54 μmol Trolox/g-sample, and the ABTS radical scavenging ability increased by 29.26 μmol Trolox/g-sample. Six non-covalent complexes were used to embed curcumin , and the stability of the formed solution was further investigated and compared.

Regulating the phase transformation of γ → β in dicalcium silicate (C 2 S) can effectively improve the hydration activity and recycling rate of AOD slag; however, the evolution law for γ → β in C 2 S has not been extensively investigated. In this study, a novel “two-step” γ → α ′ L → β phase transformation method in C 2 S was designed based on the study of the pure C 2 S phase at a nonequilibrium state in the low- and middle-temperature ranges. The “two-step” method can be used to realize the transformation from needle-like nanostructured γ -C 2 S grains to lamellar-structured β -C 2 S grains, exhibiting the trend of interlaminar peeling accompanied by expansion of the particle volume and leading to the appearance of macroscopic lamellar cracking in β -C 2 S particles. In addition, the β -C 2 S mass fraction in AOD slag treated by water cooling at 680 °C reaches a maximum value of 47.5 wt pct, while the treated AOD slag presents abundant holes and defects, which can effectively enlarge the hydration contact area.

Hydrogel coatings that can endow various substrates with superior properties (e.g., biocompatibility, hydrophilicity, and lubricity) have wide applications in the fields of oil/water separation, antifouling, anti-bioadhesion, etc. Currently, the engineering of multifunctional hydrogel-coated materials with superwettability and water purification property using a simple and sustainable strategy is still largely uninvestigated but has a beneficial effect on the world. Herein, we successfully prepared poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) hydrogel/β-FeOOH-coated poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF/PAMPS/β-FeOOH) membrane through free-radical polymerization and the in situ mineralization process. In this work, owing to the combination of hydrophilic PAMPS hydrogel coating and β-FeOOH nanorods anchored onto PVDF membrane, the resultant PVDF/PAMPS/β-FeOOH membrane achieved outstanding superhydrophilicity/underwater superoleophobicity. Moreover, the membrane not only effectively separated surfactant-stabilized oil/water emulsions, but also possessed a long-term use capacity. In addition, excellent photocatalytic activity against organic pollutants was demonstrated so that the PVDF/PAMPS/β-FeOOH membrane could be utilized to deal with wastewater. It is envisioned that these hydrogel/β-FeOOH-coated PVDF membranes have versatile applications in the fields of oil/water separation and wastewater purification.Keywords:hydrogel coating;photo-fenton catalysis;PVDF membrane;oil/water separation;water purification

Elastomers possessing good mechanical strength and self-healing capability are showing great importance in stretchable electronics, since they can play the role of robust substrates for devices, and prolong the service life of devices. However, it is hard to balance the trade-off between the high mechanical strength and self-healing ability. Here we propose the synergetic strategy via combining thio-β-diketone-Cu2+ metal–ligand (M–L) coordination with hydrogen bonds in one system, through which high mechanical strength, good elasticity and self-healing ability are achieved. The elastomer displays excellent mechanical performances (with a fracture strength of 4.35 MPa and a fracture strain of 3400%). Meanwhile, the elastomer can realize a high self-healing efficiency (94%) within only 3 hours at 80 °C. X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) analysis demonstrates the reconfiguration of M–L coordination at the molecular level, and small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) during stretching demonstrates the microphase structure change of the polymer at the nanoscale level. Based on the elastomer, a self-healable pressure sensor and a self-healable strain sensor are fabricated.

Oxidative stress is one of the major factors in induction of pancreatic β-cell apoptosis and diabetes. Here, we investigated systematically the roles of a proteoglycan (namely, FYGL ) from Ganoderma lucidum in protection and repair of pancreatic β-cells against oxidative stress-induced injury and apoptosis on molecular, cellular and animal basis. FYGL in vitro had antioxidant activity in terms of scavenging of free radicals and reduction power. FYGL improved cells viability, insulin secretion, redox indicator expressions, and mitochondrial membrane potential in H 2 O 2 -induced INS-1 cell via regulating the activations of apoptosis-related mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathways as well as the insulin secretion-related pathway. Thrillingly in vivo , FYGL repaired the injured pancreas, reduced the pancreatic β-cells apoptosis, and improved insulin secretion because of regulating the balance of oxidation-reduction, therefore well managed blood glucose in db/db diabetic mice. These results demonstrated that FYGL is promising to be used as a novel natural remedy for protection of pancreatic β-cells against oxidative stress in diabetes treatment.
