Herein, the application of a N-doped graphitic-carbon-coated iron nitride composite dispersed in a N-doped carbon framework (Fe 3 N@NG/NC) is investigated as a heterogeneous electro-Fenton (HE-EF) catalyst for the efficient removal of organics. The simultaneous carbonization and ammonia etching of iron-based metal organic framework (Fe-MOF) materials yielded well-dispersed N-doped carbon-coated Fe 3 N nanoparticles with a diameter of ~70 nm. The Fe 3 N and pyridinic N endowed the composite with high HE-EF activity for decomposing the electrogenerated H 2 O 2 to • OH. The Fe 3 N@NG/NC exhibited outstanding HE-EF performance in removing various organic pollutants with low iron leaching. A removal rate of 97–100% could be obtained for rhodamine B (RhB), dimethyl phthalate , methylene blue , and orange II in 120 min at a pH of 5.0. When the solution pH was set to 3.0, 5.0, 7.0, and 9.0, the removal rate of RhB reached 100%, 96%, 92%, and 81%, respectively, in 60 min at an optimum voltage of 0.0 V ( vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)). Moreover, the concentration of leached iron was expected to be below 0.03 mg/L in a wide pH range of 3.0–9.0. In addition, the RhB removal efficiency remained as high as 90% after six cycles in the reusability experiments. This work highlights the MOF-derived Fe 3 N composite as an efficient HE-EF catalyst and the corresponding catalytic mechanism, which facilitates its application in wastewater treatment .

N-Glycosylation is one of the most common and important protein posttranslational modifications. Structural aberrations of the N-glycans branching from glycoproteins are closely related to various disease occurrences and progressions. Therefore, global systematic identification of disease-related
N-glycans not only largely facilitates the understanding of their cellular functions but also promotes the development of new diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers. However, N-glycans are low in abundance and hydrophilic, thereby hindering high-throughput, and large-scale N-glycan analysis
and N-glycoproteome research. Here, a zwitterion-functionalized polymer brush-grafted silica hybrid hydrophilic material (poly-SBMA-S) was fabricated by in situ growth of polymeric [2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl(3-sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide (SBMA) chains on porous silica particles
through a surface-initiated atom transfer radical polymerization technique, and it was used as a new stationary phase for highly selective N-glycan enrichment. Human plasma demonstrated 64 N-glycans due to the densely packed polyzwitterion chains and the significantly increased coverage of
hydrophilic binding sites, demonstrating the high potential of the new hydrophilic matrix in the profiling and analysis of N-glycans and other hydrophilic targets.

Smart hydrogel is a kind of new soft and wet material which can be responsive to external stimuli. Hydrogel fiber owning one dimension size can significantly improve response speed and be easily formed into higher-order assemblies. N-isopropylacrylamide/calcium alginate (NIPA/Ca-alginate) as-spun fiber was generated via microfluidic spinning. Then PNIPA/Ca-alginate hydrogel fiber was prepared through off-chip free radical polymerization of NIPA in the presence of Ca-alginate. The structure and morphology of the hydrogel fiber were characterized by FTIR and SEM. The swelling property and temperature-/pH-response behaviors were also investigated. The PNIPA/Ca-alginate hydrogel fiber had a 3D network porous structure. The thinner the hydrogel fiber, the faster the swelling speed was. Meanwhile, the hydrogel fiber exhibited temperature and pH response.

Nano-p–n junction heterostructures based on TiO2 nanobelts with enhanced (001) facets were produced by assembling p-type semiconductor NiO nanoparticles on n-type surface-coarsened TiO2 nanobelt surfaces. The heterostructures were then used as the sensing electrode for the electrochemical detection of anticancer drugs O6-benzylguanine (O6BG) and lung cancer cells. O6BG exhibited an irreversible diffusion-controlled electrochemical process with an oxidation peak clearly identified at +0.78 V. For lung cancer cells one oxidation peak was found at +1.1 V and two reduction peaks at +0.30, and +0.90 V. These voltammetric features disappeared when O6BG was added to the lung cancer cells, which was ascribed to the structural changes of the cell membranes caused by the anticancer drug. These results suggested that nano-p–n junction heterostructures based on TiO2 nanobelts might serve as promising candidates for biosensing applications of anticancer drugs and tumor cells that will be of significance in diagnostic medicine, cancer diagnosis and molecular biology research.

Small Pt particles (about 1.2 nm) were highly dispersed on ZSM-22 zeolites via a strong electrostatic adsorption (SEA) method and exhibited a promotion effect on the catalytic performance in n-dodecane isomerization in comparison with the conventional catalyst. Several promoters (Ce, La, and Re) were introduced to further improve the aggregation resistance of the small Pt particles. A series of characterization including H2-TPR, XPS and STEM as well as DFT calculations provided solid evidence that the strong interaction between Pt and promoter species not only effectively hinders the Pt aggregation but also alters the electronic state of the Pt sites. Moreover, Ce and La promoters also lead to a slightly improved amount of B acid sites determined by Py-FTIR. Thus, improved activity and selectivity were achieved on a Ce-modified catalyst due to the better balanced bifunctionality between the slightly increased acidity of zeolites and electron-deficiency of Pt. The electron-rich Pt sites are responsible for the significant increase of CH4 selectivity and the decrease of total isomer selectivity in n-dodecane isomerization. In addition, a high-temperature reduction test revealed the higher isomerization activity and selectivity (about 10% higher than the unmodified catalyst) of the Ce-modified catalyst owing to the strong bond of Pt–O–Ce, further confirming the positive effect of the Ce promoter on the sintering resistance of small Pt particles.

Endocrine disruptors are environmental chemicals that can interfere with the endocrine system. However, research on endocrine disruptors that interfere with androgen action is still limited. In this study, two new environmental androgens were identified. N-Phenyl-2-naphthylamine (PNA) and o-tolidine are dye intermediates widely used in industry to produce organic pigments. We found that both PNA and o-tolidine activated androgen receptor (AR) transcriptional activity in the luciferase reporter assay and bound to AR-ligand binding domain directly in the surface plasmon resonance analysis. In vivo studies showed that PNA and o-tolidine induced the proliferation of seminal vesicle cells and increased seminal vesicle weight in immature male rats, indicating that these two compounds had androgenic activity in vivo . In addition, in mature male rats, PNA and o-tolidine reduced sperm concentration and motility and increased sperm deformities, and caused atrophy of the seminiferous tubules of the testis and decreased testosterone levels. These results suggest that PNA and o-tolidine are novel environmental androgens, which bind and activate AR and have toxicological effects on male reproductive function.

Photodegradation of indigo carmine (IC) in wastewater has received much attention in recent decades. However, the current photocatalysts used for IC photodegradation suffer from an unsatisfactory efficiency due to low yield of reactive species. Herein, a P-modified biochar/g-C 3 N 4 (P-BC/CN) photocatalyst was fabricated by mechanochemical method using P-modified biochar and g-C 3 N 4 as precursors. It is discovered that P N bonds were constructed between P-modified biochar and g-C 3 N 4 , and these bonds served as the active sites to promote the generation of •O 2 − during the photodegradation process. The biochar component in P-BC/CN composite is conducive to transfer the photogenerated carriers, thereby avoiding their recombination. The photodegradation experiment showed that the P-BC/CN composite exhibits an impressive photodegradation performance towards IC ( C 0 = 50 mg/L) with a photodegradation rate of 95.3% in 120 min. This work provides a green and efficient method to design biochar-based photocatalyst with P N active sites for advanced wastewater purification.

In this work, the wrinkled, flexible, and layered nitrogen-doped Ti 3 C 2 T x (shorten as N-MXene) is synthesized by using cyanamide as N-dopants. The changeable (002) plane spacing and the attached functional groups of N-MXene are detected by XRD and XPS analyses in details, respectively. The microscopic morphology of N-MXene is characterized by SEM and TEM, which demonstrates its wrinkled and flexible characteristics. When the wrinkled N-MXene being added into the LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O 2 (NCM811) as conductive additive, the attained electrodes obtain enhanced electrochemical performances at the appropriate weight ratio (namely 2.5-N-MXene with 2.5 wt.%). The 2.5-N-MXene delivers “extra” capacity of 226.9 mAh/g at 0.1 C (20 mA/g) current density. The “extra” capacity is assigned to Li ions intercalation/extraction from the wrinkled/flexible/layered N-MXene. Moreover, based on the analyses of CV and dQ/dV curves, the wrinkled/flexible N-MXene additive could effectively inhibit the phase transition of M↔H2 of NCM811 and alleviate the volume change of the particles in the circulation. From DFT simulation, the N-MXene is more capable of preventing Ni/Co/Mn from dissolving and migrating to the negative electrode to form dendrites through adsorption. Therefore, the N-MXene should be a very competitive conductive agent to improve the mechanical and electrochemical properties of high nickel cathode materials.

In the present study, superparamagnetic Fe3O4/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) nanocomposites were synthesized by one-step inverse miniemulsion copolymerization of N-isopropyl acrylamide and N,N'-methylene diacrylamide. The loading of Fe3O4 nanoparticles
in the nanocomposites was 27 wt%, and the saturation moment of the nanocomposites was 12.4 emu · g−1. Fe3O4 nanoparticles were prepared through a coprecipitation method. The amount of stabilizer (poly(acrylic acid)) significantly influenced the
size and size distribution of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles, and, therefore, their magnetic properties. Superparamagnetism of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles was preserved in the nanocomposites. The effects of synthetic parameters on the particle properties, namely
surfactant loading, concentration of ferrofluid, type of lipophobe and initiator, and amount of cross-linker were investigated. Nanocomposites of Fe3O4/poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) displayed a guava-like morphology, which they could retain after being redispersed
in polar solvents.

Sexual dimorphism plays a critical role in disease pathophysiology, but the subtlety and complexity of these differences, along with a lack of precise comparative methods, hinder the advancement of precision medicine and drug development. This limitation is particularly evident in metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD), where sex-specific molecular mechanisms remain insufficiently understood. To address this gap, we employed an advanced integrative N-glycoproteomics and proteomics approach to systematically analyze sex-biased molecular signatures in primary mouse hepatocytes (PMHs) under healthy and MASLD conditions. Our analysis identified 280 sex-biased proteins and 39 sex-biased N-glycosites, and KEGG enrichment revealed that female-biased molecules were primarily involved in lipid metabolism, while male-biased molecules were associated with inflammation and cytoskeletal remodeling. A combined dataset of 302 sex-biased molecules was further analyzed using protein–protein interaction (PPI) analysis and Rc value calculations, resulting in the identification of 21 hub proteins and 2 hub N-glycosites as MASLD-associated sex-biased signatures. Notably, MASLD amplified proteomic sex differences while attenuating them in N-glycosylation. Western blot validation of key signatures, including female-biased MVK and male-biased LGALS3, highlighted distinct molecular adaptations between the sexes in MASLD progression. Our study introduced an advanced analytical framework for high-resolution comparative molecular profiling by integrating N-glycoproteomics with proteomics, providing valuable insights into sex-biased molecular signatures, enhancing preclinical model development, and advancing sex-specific therapeutic strategies in MASLD research and broader biological systems.

Alterations in plasma membrane glycoproteins (PMGs) have been identified as a hallmark of cancer. The comparison and identification of differential PMGs is significant for finding new markers and understanding pathological processes. However, the research on PMGs is often constrained by the low abundance and the disturbance of abundant endogenous biomolecules during direct analysis. Here, we report a bottom-up strategy to enrich the PMGs of breast cancer cells using hydrophilic magnetic covalent triazine frameworks (CTFs). A total of 972 N-glycopeptides and 1006 N-glycosites belonging to 526 N-glycoproteins were enriched in MCF-10A plasma membrane tryptic digest by magnetic CTFs. And 680 N-glycopeptides and 806 N-glycosites belonging to 443 N-glycoproteins were enriched in SK-BR-3 plasma membrane tryptic digest. Furthermore, comparative analysis was performed based on gene ontology to verify breast cancer biomarkers (SUSD2 and ALCAM) and differential PMGs’ function. This strategy which systematically integrates efficient enrichment of differential PMGs and in-depth comparative analysis has great potential for helping illuminate the atlas of breast cancer PMGs and the causes of tumor metastasis.

Graphical No base needed : N-doped carbon-supported CoCu bimetallic catalyst with enhanced O 2 activation ability and basicity is demonstrated as an effective catalyst for the oxidative esterification of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. The introduction of Cu significantly enhances the catalytic activity, resulting in a high furan-2,5-dimethylcarboxylate yield and an impressive formation rate, paving the way for the efficient and green synthesis of sustainable bio-based polymer monomers. The direct fabrication of furan-2,5-dimethylcarboxylate (FDMC), a promising renewable monomer, from biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) is a cutting-edge process. In this contribution, an elaborately designed N-doped carbon-supported CoCu bimetallic catalyst (Co x Cu y -NC; x / y= 9:1, 7:3, 4:6, which represents the designed molar ratio of Co and Cu in the catalyst), which could offer a desirable FDMC yield of 95 % under mild and base-free conditions (Co 7 Cu 3 -NC, 2 bar O 2 , 80 °C, 4 h) is described for the oxidative esterification of HMF. Notably, an FDMC formation rate of 6.1 mol FDMC mol Co −1 h −1 was achieved over Co 7 Cu 3 -NC, which represents the highest catalytic efficiency so far among Co-based catalytic systems. It has been demonstrated that Cu-doping in Co 7 Cu 3 -NC catalyst brings about more active sites (Co-N x species) with stronger molecular oxygen activation ability. The increase of surface N content of Co 7 Cu 3 -NC also improves basicity of the catalyst, which favors the hydrogen abstraction process during the HMF oxidative esterification reaction. These findings may pave an efficient and green way for the synthesis of sustainable bio-based polymer monomers.
