Prussian blue (PB) has been broadly recognized as promising cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) due to its large interstitial space and robust frame structure, whereas their applications are impeded by unsatisfied long-term cyclability and poor rate capability due to its inherent lattice defects. Herein, we report to fabricate the mesoporous hollow Fe 4 (Fe(CN) 6 ) 3 (one kind of PB) hierarchical nanocrystal architecture by the hydrothermal crystallization and HCl etching of the mesoporous precursor Fe 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3 cubic particles, leading to high crystallinity and large specific surface area. The resultant Fe 4 [Fe(CN) 6 ] 3 cathode for SIBs exhibits a good reversibility and cycling stability with a capacity retention of 75.6 % at 0.5 C after 200 cycles as well as superb rate capability featuring a stable discharge specific capacity of 30.2 mAh g −1 at as high as 10 C, demonstrating the fast kinetics and low polarization of electrochemical reaction, which might be ascribed to the unique architecture and high crystallinity. This offers a new route to designing PB cathode of for SIBs with high rate capabilities.

In this work, the different shaped CoSn(OH) 6 nanocrystallines were prepared by hydrothermal method. The morphology, microstructure, and composition of the prepared nanocrystallines were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and other methods. The optical properties of CoSn(OH) 6 nanocrystallines with different morphologies were analyzed using UV–vis DRS. With the reduction of 4-nitrophenol as a model reaction, the photocatalytic performance of CoSn(OH) 6 nanocrystallines with the different morphologies was investigated. The results show that the CoSn(OH) 6 nanorings significantly improved the photocatalytic reduction 4-nitrophenol performance. The conversion rate of 4-nitrophenol reached 94% within 6 min. Finally, a potential mechanism for the photocatalytic process of CoSn(OH) 6 nanorings is discussed.

The extraction of lead-212 (212Pb) from radioactive thorium (Th) waste is immensely important, as it serves to mitigate environmental risks associated with radioactive waste and provides a vital source for medical isotopes. To economically extract 212Pb from thorium, we synthesized a novel extractant known as 2,13-disulfonyldiethylamine dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DSADB18C6). We assessed its performance in isolating Pb(II) by employing stable lead and optimizing the parameters of the extraction system. The results showcased an exceptional ability to extract Pb(II) efficiently. Within 10 minutes, using 20 mmol of DSADB18C6 and under conditions of 10 mg L−1 lead concentration (HNO3 = 0.5 mol L−1), the extraction efficiency reached up to 96.1%. Even after four rounds of stripping with 0.4 mol L−1 ammonium citrate, the efficiency remained at 90.2%. Moreover, the extraction stoichiometry and thermodynamics revealed that DSADB18C6 exhibited superior extraction performance compared to the commercial extractant 4′,4′′,(5′′)-di-(tert-butyldicyclohexano)-18-crown-6 (DtBuDC18C6), in line with the density functional theory (DFT) calculation result. Furthermore, we successfully separated 212Pb from the thorium nitrate solution, maintaining radioactive equilibrium with its progeny. Gamma-spectroscopy confirmed a recovery yield of extraction exceeding 85.7%. This study presents a viable approach, underscoring the potential of DSADB18C6 as a promising extractant for the effective separation of 212Pb from radioactive thorium sources.

Chemoresistance to cisplatin remains a significant challenge affecting the prognosis of advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, the specific biomarkers and underlying mechanisms responsible for cisplatin resistance remain elusive. Through comprehensive bioinformatic analyses, we identified a potential biomarker, BCL2 associated athanogene-1 (BAG1), showing elevated expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Since OSCC represents the primary pathological type of HNSCC, we investigated BAG1 expression in human tumor tissues and cisplatin resistant OSCC cell lines, revealing that silencing BAG1 induced apoptosis in cisplatin-resistant cells both in vitro and in vivo . This effect led to impaired cell viability of cisplatin resistant OSCC cells and indicated a positive correlation between BAG1 expression and the G1/S transition during cell proliferation. Based on these insights, the administration of a CDK4/6 inhibitor in combination with cisplatin effectively overcame cisplatin resistance in OSCC through the CDK4/6-BAG1 axis. Additionally, to enable simultaneous drug delivery and enhance synergistic antitumor efficacy, we developed a novel supramolecular nanodrug LEE011-FFERGD/CDDP, which was validated in an OSCC orthotopic mouse model. In summary, our study highlights the potential of a combined administration of CDK4/6 inhibitor and cisplatin as a promising therapeutic regimen for treating advanced or cisplatin resistant OSCC.

The advancement of the automotive and mechanical industries has placed higher demands on the thermal conductivity of polyamide 6 (PA6). However, the weak interfacial bonding between graphene oxide (GO) and the PA6 matrix aggravates phonon scattering, which in turn increases interfacial thermal resistance and limits the improvement of composite thermal conductivity. To address this issue, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) was employed as an interfacial modifier, and GO-HDI/PA6 composites featuring strong covalent bonding at the nanofiller/matrix interface were fabricated via anionic ring-opening polymerization. As a result, incorporating a low content of GO-HDI could significantly enhance both the thermal conductivity and tensile strength of the composites. At 2 wt% GO-HDI, the thermal conductivity of the PA6 composite increased to 0.821 W/m·K, representing a 258.5 % improvement compared to neat PA6. Moreover, with only 0.2 wt% GO-HDI, the tensile strength of the composite improved by 27.9 %, reaching 50.9 MPa. The outstanding thermal conductivity and mechanical performance were attributed to the uniform dispersion of the nanofillers and their strong interfacial bonding with the matrix, which were further verified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses. This composite holds significant application potential in various fields that demand stringent thermal management and structural performance requirements.

A highly efficient and reactive flame retardant (FR) agent was developed and in situ self-polymerized on polyamide 6 (PA6) fabrics, yielding a durable and multifunctional textile. The FR agent, designated DOPO-pCA, was synthesized using bio-based p-coumaric acid and DOPO. The treated PA6 exhibited outstanding flame retardancy and anti-dripping performance, with a limiting oxygen index of 31.0% and a reduced damaged length of 12.3 cm. Cone calorimetry confirmed significant fire-safety improvements, with the peak heat release rate and total heat release reduced by 30.7% and 23.8%, respectively. The superior fire resistance should be attributed to the enhanced quenching effect of phenoxy and phosphoroxy radicals. Owing to its self-polymerization and reactivity, DOPO-pCA imparted durable FR functionality, with only slight deterioration observed after 30 laundering cycles. Moreover, the treated PA6 fabrics exhibited excellent resistance to UV resistance and antibacterial activity against S. aureus . The PA6 fabrics treated with 40 g/L DOPO-pCA achieved a high UV protection factor (UPF) of 52.4 and an antibacterial rate of 92.3%. Here, this work proposes a cleaner and novel strategy for developing durable and multifunctional PA6 fabrics.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) based on noble metal nanoparticles has garnered significant attention in analytical chemistry due to its simplicity and rapidity for low-concentration detection. Although widely applied in fields like environmental monitoring, food safety, and biomedical diagnostics, the impact of silver nanoparticle shape on SERS performance remains insufficiently studied. Furthermore, traditional stationary solid and liquid SERS approaches are limited by inconsistent reproducibility and temporal variations in uniformity, respectively. To overcome these limitations, we introduce a simple continuous and online Ag SERS platform that employs spherical silver colloids within a capillary-Teflon tube system for dynamic, real-time analyte detection. Continuous fluid flow reduces variations in colloids, ensuring uniformity, while the enclosed system limits dynamic behaviors of colloids, enhancing stability. This platform demonstrates outstanding stability, with relative standard deviations of 2.30%. Its versatility is showcased through the quantitative detection of melamine in milk, 6-thioguanine in serum, and histamine in beer, demonstrating its capability for accurate, real-time detection in complex food matrices. This continuous and online Ag SERS platform represents a significant advancement in reliable, high-performance analyte detection, offering promising prospects for real-time analytical applications and providing a cost-effective, scalable solution for widespread use.

In this study, we investigated the feasibility of using poly(N-acryloyl 6-aminocaproic acid) (PA6ACA) as a pH-responsive polymer for oral enteric drug delivery. PA6ACA, characterized by its acylamino group, carboxyl group, and flexible 5-carbon chain, demonstrates pH sensitivity due to the presence of ionizable carboxyl groups and hydrogen bonding interactions between the carboxyl and amino moieties. Our research focused primarily on the preparation, characterization, and evaluation of enteric drugs delivered via PA6ACA. We evaluated the morphology, structure, thermal properties, and crystallinity of PA6ACA. Cytotoxicity experiments conducted in Caco-2 cells and the oral administration studies in mice provided preliminary safety evidence for PA6ACA. Three model drugs (budesonide, sulfasalazine, and diclofenac sodium) were employed to fabricate drug-polymer coprecipitates, and PA6ACA exhibited high loading capacities for these drugs. Furthermore, the drug release profiles revealed that the drug-loaded polymers were resistant to acid at pH 1.0 and nearly completely dissolved within the next 8 h at pH 6.8. The kinetic model fitting results indicated that the release of drugs from the coprecipitates were more consistent with the Higuchi model, suggesting minimal polymer swelling in the media and a primary drug release mechanism via diffusion. Based on these findings, we conclude that PA6ACA holds promise for the development of innovative and efficient intestine-specific drug delivery systems.

An alcohol-induced liver injury model was induced in C57BL/6 mice to assess the protective efficacy of Enteromorpha prolifera polysaccharides (EP) against liver damage. Histological alterations in the liver were examined following hematoxylin-eosin (H&E) staining. Biochemical assay kits and ELISA kits were employed to analyze serum and liver biochemical parameters, as well as the activity of antioxidant enzymes and alcohol metabolism-related enzymes. The presence of oxidative stress-related proteins in the liver was detected using western blotting. Liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry were used to profile serum metabolites in mice. The findings demonstrated that EP-H (100 mg/Kg) reduced serum ALT and AST activity by 2.31-fold and 2.32-fold, respectively, when compared to the alcohol-induced liver injury group. H&E staining revealed a significant attenuation of microvesicular steatosis and ballooning pathology in the EP-H group compared to the model group. EP administration was found to enhance alcohol metabolism by regulating metabolite-related enzymes (ADH and ALDH) and decreasing CYP2E1 expression. EP also modulated the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway to bolster hepatic antioxidant capacity. Furthermore, EP restored the levels of lipid metabolites (Glycine, Butanoyl-CoA, and Acetyl-CoA) to normalcy. In summary, EP confers protection to the liver through the regulation of antioxidant activity and lipid metabolites in the murine liver.

Simple SummaryAcute T-lymphoblastic leukemia is a disease with a very low survival rate after relapse, and the search for new therapeutic agents is important for the clinical benefit of patients with acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia. Our study developed YLS010, a small molecule that is more sensitive to acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia cells, based on the structure of the invented small molecule YLS004. This novel small molecule demonstrated good antitumor activity in vivo and in vitro with acceptable toxicity. These findings provide a new avenue for the development of clinical drugs for patients with acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia.Abstract(1) Background: The research group has developed a new small molecule, 6-Isopropyldithio-2′-deoxyguanosine analogs-YLS004, which has been shown to be the most sensitive in acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia cells. Moreover, it was found that the structure of Nelarabine, a drug used to treat acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia, is highly similar to that of YLS004. Consequently, the structure of YLS004 was altered to produce a new small molecule inhibitor for this study, named YLS010. (2) Results: YLS010 has exhibited potent anti-tumor effects by inducing cell apoptosis and ferroptosis. A dose gradient was designed for in vivo experiments based on tentative estimates of the toxicity dose using acute toxicity in mice and long-term toxicity in rats. The study found that YLS010 at a dose of 8 mg/kg prolonged the survival of late-stage acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia mice in the mouse model study. (3) Conclusions: YLS010 has demonstrated specific killing effects against acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia both in vivo and in vitro. Preclinical studies of YLS010 offer a new opportunity for the treatment of patients with acute T-lymphoblastic leukemia in clinical settings.

Grounded in the principle of “like dissolves like”, the development of water-soluble sizing agents characterized by matrix-like structures has emerged as a focal point of research within the interface domain. Nevertheless, the reliance exclusively on the entanglement forces between the sizing agent and the matrix is deemed inadequate. In this study, a novel water-soluble dual-component sizing agent tailored for the nylon 6 (PA6) resin matrix has been developed. By leveraging the self-emulsifying and water-soluble properties of sodium lignosulfonate (SL) and polyamic acid (PAA), these components are concurrently introduced onto the fiber surface. Following treatment, a distinct interfacial region is established on the fiber surface as a result of their interactions. Exploiting their intrinsic differences at processing temperatures facilitates differential wetting of the matrix resin on the fiber surface, consequently resulting in the formation of a “mechanical interlocking” structure between the fiber and the matrix. The findings reveal that the flexural strength and interlaminar shear strength of the modified CF/PA6 composites achieved values of 977.8 MPa and 74.1 MPa, corresponding to enhancements of 27.4 % and 28.8 %, respectively, when compared to their unmodified counterparts. This innovative sizing agent not only significantly enhances interfacial adhesion but also confers high added-value potential to lignin-derived materials, a factor that is essential for future sustainable development.

Among these compounds, the most active compound, 22c , inhibited ALK5 phosphorylation with an IC 50 value of 0.030 μM in the enzymatic assay. Compound 22c showed four-fold more potent activity against ALK5 kinase than the clinical candidate, compound LY-2157299 . The selectivity index of 22c against p38α MAP kinase is 235, which is much higher than that of LY-2157299 (4) and equally selective to that of EW-7197 (218). Compound 22c effectively suppressed protein and mRNA expression of collagen I and α-SMA in TGF-β-induced LX-2 human hepatic stellate cell (HSC), this result shows that compound 22c has the ability to inhibit the activation of HSC. Compound 22c is expected to be a preclinical candidate for the treatment of hepatic fibrosis .
