Two new metal hybrid borates , Na[Ni(py) 2 ] 2 ·[(C 4 H 2 O 6 ) 2 B]·H 2 O (py = pyridine) ( 1 ) and [Cu(H 2 O) 2 (1-EI) 4 ]·[B 5 O 6 (OH) 4 ] 2 ·H 2 O (1-EI = 1-ethylimidazole) ( 2 ), have been successfully synthesized. 1 features an interesting structure based on mixed borate-tartrate motifs. Two tartrate anions are condensed with one BO 4 to form the hybrid anionic group [(C 4 H 2 O 6 ) 2 B] 5− . The structure of 2 is composed of [B 5 O 6 (OH) 4 ] − clusters and [Cu(H 2 O) 2 (1-EI) 4 ] 2+ complexes, which exhibits hydrogen-bonded network formed by [B 5 O 6 (OH) 4 ] − clusters. These compounds are further confirmed by FTIR, PXRD and UV–vis. In addition, the catalyst prepared from 2 shows excellent electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity.

Three phosphates Rb2Zn3(P2O7)2 and Cs2M3(P2O7)2 (M = Zn and Mg) were successfully synthesized by a high-temperature solution method. Their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, which shows that the three structures all display three-dimensional [M3P4O20]14− (M = Zn and Mg) frameworks composed of isolated P2O7 dimers and MO4 (M = Zn and Mg) tetrahedra with Rb+/Cs+ cations located in the space of the frameworks to balance charges. But owing to the cationic size effect, they are not iso-structural. Rb2Zn3(P2O7)2 crystallizes in the non-centrosymmetric P21 space group, whereas Cs2M3(P2O7)2 (M = Zn and Mg) crystallize in the centrosymmetric P21/c space group. And Rb2Zn3(P2O7)2 exhibits a second harmonic generation (SHG) response as large as that of KH2PO4 (KDP). Combining electronic structure and SHG density calculations, we studied the effects of ZnO4 tetrahedra on the SHG response of Rb2Zn3(P2O7)2. Furthermore, a structural comparison is also carried out in Rb2Zn3(P2O7)2 and Cs2M3(P2O7)2 (M = Zn and Mg).

Fruit preservation and shelf life extension rely heavily on effective materials, but current methods often fail to combine key functions like antibacterial protection and freshness retention. This study aims to develop a multifunctional hydrogel to address the existing challenges in grape preservation. The hydrogel, termed as CS- se -HA gel , was fabricated via Schiff base reactions between dialdehyde chitosan (DACS) and 2,2’-diselanediyldiethanamine (DD)-conjugated hyaluronic acid (DDHA) polymers. Studies found that CS- se -HA gel possessed an outstanding swelling ratio, low cytotoxicity, good water retention, and excellent mechanical properties. Besides, it also showed potent antibacterial activity, which prevented the treated grapes from rotting and wrinkling. Significantly, CS- se -HA gel also decreased water loss from grapes and maintained their total soluble solid (TSS) and pH stability, prolonging the shelf life of harvested grapes at ambient temperature. Therefore, it could be speculated that CS- se -HA gel has potential applications for fruit preservation in the food industry.

Oxyhalides possessing the merits of oxides and halides have widely received attention for their comprehensive physical performances, especially as potential nonlinear optical (NLO) crystals. Here, based on conventional strategy for obtaining acentric compounds, a Te4+ lone-pair cation was introduced into oxyhalides, and one oxyfluoride, HgTeO2F(OH), was obtained via a hydrothermal reaction. Crystallized in the polar space group Pca21, the layered structure of HgTeO2F(OH) is composed of V-shaped [HgO2]2– groups and [TeO2F(OH)]2– pyramids, in which the [TeO2F(OH)]2– pyramid first served as the NLO functional motif. Its powder sample exhibits a phase-matchable SHG response of 1.1 × KH2PO4 at 1064 nm, and its birefringence (0.09@1064 nm) is sufficient for phase-matchable behavior, which manifests its comprehensive capacity as a promising NLO candidate. Theoretical calculations about electronic structure and optical properties are also carried out, revealing that the Te4+ lone-pair cation makes the predominant contribution to the SHG effect and synergizes with the [HgO2]2– groups.

In this work, we develop a novel 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN)-based acidic sulfate copper electronic electroplating process for compact, homogeneous and conformal copper thickening of through hole (TH). The adsorption characteristics, electrochemical properties and the interaction mechanisms of three additives (PEG, SPS and PAN) are studied in detail. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) and optical microscope (OM) reveal that PAN can make the copper coating in fine grains and high throwing power of 90.35% in TH without an overhang phenomenon. Theoretical calculations illustrate that the binding energies between additive molecules and copper surface decrease in the order: PAN > SPS > PEG . Cyclic voltammetry experiments at rotating rates of 1200 and 200 r/min prove that PAN itself can accelerate and weakly suppress copper electrodeposition at the center and mouth of TH, respectively. PAN behaves respectively the synergistic and antagonistic effects with PEG at the mouth and center of TH, and the weakly synergistic effects with SPS both at the mouth and center of TH. The addition of PAN to the virgin make-up solution (VMS) containing PEG and SPS causes decreasing the relative electric charge (Δ Q ) at high and low rotating rates from 18.52 ± 0.08% to 8.25 ± 0.05%, which satisfies the closer copper electronic electroplating rate at the center and mouth of TH. The effective and complicated synergistic effects of the additives PEG, SPS and PAN can achieve compact, homogeneous and conformal copper thickening of TH.

BACKGROUND Tyrosinase is the key enzyme involved in enzymatic browning of plant-derived foods. Inhibition of tyrosinase activity contributes to the control of food browning. Due to safety regulations or other issues, most identified tyrosinase inhibitors are not suitable for practical use. Therefore, it is necessary to search for novel tyrosinase inhibitors. In this study, the anti-tyrosinase activity and mechanism of albendazole and 2-(2-aminophenyl)-1 H -benzimidazole (2-2-A-1HB) were investigated through ultraviolet–visible absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectra, molecular docking, and molecular dynamic (MD) simulation. The anti-browning effect of albendazole on fresh-cut apples was then elucidated. RESULTS Albendazole and 2-2-A-1HB were both efficient tyrosinase inhibitors with IC 50 of 51 ± 1.5 and 128 ± 1.3 μmol L −1 , respectively. Albendazole suppressed tyrosinase non-competitively and formed tyrosinase–albendazole complex statically. Hydrogen bond and hydrophobic interaction were major driving forces in stabilizing the tyrosinase–albendazole complex. While 2-2-A-1HB inhibited the enzyme competitively and quenched its intrinsic fluorescence through a static mechanism, it generated strong binding affinity with tyrosinase through hydrophobic interaction. MD simulations further validated that albendazole/2-2-A-1HB could form stable complexes with tyrosinase and loosened its basic framework structure, leading to a change in secondary structure and conformation. In addition, albendazole could delay the browning of fresh-cut apples by inhibiting the activity of polyphenol oxidase, peroxidase and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, and reducing the oxidation of phenolic compounds. CONCLUSION This research might provide a deep view of tyrosinase inhibition by benzimidazole derivatives and a theoretical basis for developing albendazole as a potential fresh-keeping agent. © 2023 Society of Chemical Industry.

The batch production of high-purity hydrogen is a key problem that restricts the progress of fuel cells and the blueprint for achieving carbon neutrality. Transition-metal chalcogenide heterojunctions exhibit certain activity toward electrochemical overall water splitting (EOWS), but their high-current-density catalytic performances are still unsatisfactory due to the slow kinetic progression (H* or *O → *OOH). Inspired by the “electron pocket” theory, we designed a Ni-Mo bimetallic disulfide interface heterojunction electrocatalyst system (NM-IHJ-V) with high electronic storage capacity around the Fermi level (−0.5 eV, +0.5 eV) (e-DFE), which injects more power into the kinetic progression processes of intermediate species in the EOWS process. Consequently, it achieves a superhigh current density of 2 A cm–2 level for EOWS (only 1.98 V voltage is needed), which is 11.23-fold higher than that of the benchmarked Pt/C//IrO2 (178 mA cm–2@1.98 V), as well as an excellent long-term stability of 200 h. Most strikingly, NM-IHJ-V can efficiently produce hydrogen at currents up to 5 A. Our proposed strategy of constructing catalysts to produce hydrogen at superhigh current density through the electron pocket theory will supply valuable insights for the designing other catalytic systems.

Developing low-cost, easy-to-prepare, biocompatible and highly efficient vaccine carriers is a promising approach to realize practical cancer immunotherapy . In this study, through facile modification of mPEG5k-4-toluenesulfonate (mPEG5k-OTs) on PEI25k under mild conditions, a series of “stealth” mPEG5k-PEI25k polymers (PP1, PP2 and PP3) were prepared, their structures and physicochemical properties were characterized and theoretically analyzed. The polymers could bind/load ovalbumin (OVA) to form mPEG5k-PEI25k/OVA complexes as negatively charged nanoparticles with small hydrodynamic particle size (80–210 nm) and narrow size distribution. Compared to PEI25k/OVA, lower cytotoxicity could be achieved on mPEG5k-PEI25k/OVA complexes in dendritic cells (DCs). In DCs-RF 33.70 T-cells co-culture system, the mPEG5k-PEI25k/OVA complexes could bring about higher IL-2 production /secretion than that of PEI25k/OVA, notably, the optimum IL-2 secretion could reach 9.3-folds of the PEI25k/OVA under serum condition (10% FBS). Moreover, the cell biological features could be optimized by selecting suitable mPEG5k-grafting ratios and/or mPEG5k-PEI25k/OVA weight ratios. Intracellular imaging results showed that the mPEG5k-PEI25k(PP3)/Rhodamine-OVA complexes mainly localized inside lysosomes . Taken together, this work provided a facile method to prepare “stealth” PEGylated-PEI25k polymers with reduced cytotoxicity, promoted OVA cross-presentation efficiency and improved serum compatibility towards cancer immunotherapy.

Neuroprotective antioxidants, especially peptide-based antioxidants, are effective against oxidative stress in neurodegenerative disorders. In this study, we measured the neuroprotective effects of the antioxidant peptide DFTPVCTTELGR (DR12) from housefly Musca domestica L. pupae. Treatment of PC12 and HT22 cells with DR12 significantly reduced glutamate-induced cytotoxicity. Peptide DR12 appeared to exert its neuroprotective effects by attenuating production of reactive oxygen species and malonaldehyde, upregulating the endogenous antioxidants superoxide dismutase and glutathione, and reversing the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. In addition, DR12 treatment activated the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2/heme oxygenase-1 signaling pathway. Structure–activity analysis indicated that the superior neuroprotective function of DR12 was related to its cysteine residue. In summary, DR12 may be an attractive therapeutic peptide or precursor to treat neurodegenerative diseases.

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or bacterial endotoxin, is an important virulence factor in several human and animal pathologies. Oxazoline of Palmitoylethanolamide (PEAOXA) has shown strong anti-inflammatory activity in several animal models. LPS was applied for 24 h to zebrafish embryos to induce inflammation, and then the anti-inflammatory action of PEAOXA was evaluated for the first time in the zebrafish model (Danio rerio). Different concentrations of PEAOXA were tested for toxicity on zebrafish embryonic development; only the highest concentration of 30 mg/L showed toxic effects. Quantitative RT-PCR was applied to detect Tumor necrosis factor-α, Interleukin 1β, 6, and 8, and members of the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB). Exposure to LPS induced an increase in pro-inflammatory cytokines (tumor necrosis factor and interleukin 1, 6, and 8) in both gene and protein expression, as well as an increase of the nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-kB) and the nuclear factor kappa light polypeptide enhancer in B-cells inhibitor (IκBα) gene expression. Furthermore, acute LPS exposure also induced an increase in tryptase release, related to mast cell activity, and in the production of apoptosis-related proteins (caspase 3, bax, and bcl-2). Treatment with PEAOXA 10 mg/L significantly counteracts LPS-induced inflammation in terms of cytokine expression and decreases tryptase release and the apoptosis pathway.Keywords:zebrafish;inflammation;PEAOXA;cytokines;apoptosis

Silver(I)-catalyzed tandem reaction of enynones with 4-alkenyl isoxazoles provides access to 2-(furan-2-yl)-1,2-dihydropyridines. No competitive cyclopropanation of alkenes and O–H insertion via (2-furyl)carbene complexes were observed. The cascade reaction proceeds via the formation of (2-furyl)metal carbene intermediate, the N–O bond cleavage of 4-alkenyl isoxazoles/rearrangement, subsequent 6π electrocyclic reaction, and [1,5] H-shift. The successive construction of both 1,2-dihydropyridine skeleton and furan frame has been achieved in the one-pot reaction. A broad range of readily available enynones and 4-alkenyl isoxazoles are suitable to this protocol; however, when R3 is the alkyl group such as n-Bu and Me, a complicated mixture was generated without the desired products. In addition, in the case of R4 = bulky group such as R3′SiOCH2, the reaction gave an in situ oxo-product of (2-furyl)silver carbene. An atom-economic strategy for the synthesis of 2-(furan-2-yl)-1,2-dihydropyridines has been established.
