The photocatalytic activation of oxygen molecules (O2) is an environmentally friendly and sustainable alternative to substituted benzofuran-3(2H)-one synthesis. Herein, lead-free Cs2AgBiBr6 nanocrystals were used to activate O2 efficiently and selectively for the photocatalytic transformation of 4-hydroxycoumarins to functional 2-hydroxy-benzofuran-3(2H)-ones under an air atmosphere. Polyfunctionalized benzofuran-3(2H)-ones with a quaternary carbon center can be selectively obtained in moderate to good yields at room temperature via one-pot synthesis. Perovskite crystal structures have significant influence on photocatalytic activity due to the different charge separation abilities. The reaction mechanism was further investigated to confirm the contribution of reactive oxygen species (ROS).

The development of green energetic materials is based on environmental friendliness, safety and performance improvement. It is of great significance to design and synthesize new nitrogen rich salts for a new generation of green energetic materials. In the present work, a series of 3-amino-5-hydrazinopyrazole energetic salts comprising energetic anions were synthesized and were characterized using elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Compounds 1–5 were further confirmed by single crystal X-ray diffraction and the sensitivities were measured by the standard BAM methods. Additionally, the structure–property relationship was elucidated from the experimental results and theoretical calculations. Energetic salts of 2 and 5 exhibited high heat of formation (5, 1160.06 kJ mol−1), high decomposition temperature (2, 172 °C; 5, 186 °C), excellent detonation performance (2, Dv, 9076 m s−1, P 34.1 GPa; 5, Dv, 8974 m s−1, P 31.9 GPa), moderate sensitivity towards outer stimuli and high nitrogen contents (2, 41.03%; 5, 63.84%). This work increases future prospects for the design of insensitive and novel high-energy green energetic material.

Three-dimensional lead halide hybrids exhibit excellent photophysical properties but suffer from inherent instability. In contrast, two-dimensional layered lead halides offer enhanced environmental stability, yet their strongly bound excitons restrict efficient charge transport. Here we present a covalent intercalation strategy involving the benchmark photosensitizer [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ into a layered lead halide framework, featuring cationic [Pb 23 X 42 ] 4+ (X − = Cl − or Br − ) layers pillared by [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ ligands via Pb 2+ -carboxylate coordination. This hybrid material achieves nearly full visible-light absorption and efficient photoinduced charge transfer from [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ to the lead halide layers. This affords efficient CO 2 -to-CO photoreduction with an apparent quantum efficiency of ~3.0% at 500 nm, exceeding the performance of all previously reported organolead halide photocatalysts. Mechanistic studies indicate that the [Ru(bpy) 3 ] 2+ ligands enhance charge transport to Pb 2+ sites, facilitating CO 2 activation and reducing the reaction barrier for the *COOH intermediate. This work establishes a paradigm for intercalation chemistry in robust layered lead halide hybrids.

The urea oxidation reaction (UOR) is considered as an alternative to the oxygen evolution reaction for high-efficiency hydrogen production, because it can simultaneously achieve wastewater treatment and hydrogen production. However, the slow kinetics of the UOR hinder its widespread adoption due to relatively complex molecule, it is urgent to rational design and preparation of high-performance UOR catalysts. Herein, we report a simple synthesis of the NiMn-LDH@Rh(OH) 3 heterostructure and a systematic investigation of urea-assisted electrolytic hydrogen production， significantly enhances the efficiency of urea electrolysis. The amorphous Rh(OH) 3 structure provides a higher density of active sites and greater catalytic surface exposure, while the synergistic interaction between Rh(OH) 3 and NiMn-LDH improves both electrical conductivity and catalytic performance. The catalyst of NiMn-LDH@Rh(OH) 3 –3 requires only 1.29 V overpotential to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm −2 in a 1.0 M KOH and 0.33 M urea solution, surpassing other catalysts. Furthermore, it demonstrates remarkable stability with minimal potential increase during 48-hour chronopotentiometric tests at 100 mA cm −2 . This work making the developed strategy promising for the rational design of highly active electrocatalysts for green hydrogen production and the treatment of urea-rich wastewater.

Staphylococcus aureus poses a global threat to livestock health and public health security, necessitating a novel antibiotic. Pleuromutilin, a natural antibiotic, has served as a promising foundation for developing new antibacterial agents through structural modification. This study aims to evaluate the antibacterial potential, safety, and pharmacokinetic profile of a novel pleuromutilin derivative 2-3 (22-[2-(L-prolylamino)phenylsulfanyl]-22-deoxypleuromutilin). The compound 2–3 exhibited potent antibacterial activity (MIC = 0.25 μg/mL), concentration-dependent bactericidal effects, and prolonged post-antibiotic effects (PAEs). Safety assessments revealed low cytotoxicity (CC50 = 62.63 μg/mL) and no observable hemolytic activity. In vitro metabolic studies indicated species-dependent clearance, primarily mediated by CYP3A4. Pharmacokinetic in rats showed rapid absorption and elimination, with oral and intramuscular bioavailability of 16.03% ± 8.82% and 53.36% ± 12.27%, respectively. Notably, 2–3 demonstrated superior efficacy over tiamulin in a neutropenic murine thigh infection model. Molecular docking revealed a stronger binding free energy between 2–3 and the 50S ribosomal subunit compared to tiamulin. Collectively, these results highlight 2–3 as a promising clinical candidate against S. aureus infections, characterized by enhanced efficacy and a favorable safety profile.

Introduction In this study, we generated a 3-dimensional (3D) collagen fibrous scaffold for potential pulp regeneration and investigated the influence of various pore sizes of these scaffolds on proliferation, odontoblastic differentiation of human dental pulp cells (hDPCs), and subsequent tissue formation during pulp regeneration. Methods Electrospinning followed by freeze-drying was used to fabricate 3D fibrous collagen scaffolds. hDPCs were cultured on these scaffolds. Cell growth was detected by a Cell Counting Kit-8 assay and observed via scanning electron microscopy. Odontogenic genes and protein expression were analyzed by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and immunofluorescence staining. The formation of mineralized nodules was tested by von Kossa staining, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis. Subcutaneous transplantation of the seeded scaffold/tooth fragments into nude mice was performed to observe tissue formation for pulp regeneration. Results Collagen 3D fibrous scaffolds with 3 distinct mean pore sizes (approximately 20 μm, 65 μm, and 145 μm) were fabricated, which showed good biocompatibility and bioactivity. Scaffolds with larger mean pore sizes of 65 and 145 μm improved hDPC ingrowth and proliferation, with the 65-μm scaffold group presenting the highest level of odontogenic gene expression ( DSPP and DMP-1 ), protein expression (DMP-1), mineralized area ratio, and vascular pulplike tissue formation after 6 weeks of subcutaneous implantation. Conclusions The pore size of collagen 3D fibrous scaffolds significantly affected cell adhesion , proliferation, odontoblastic differentiation, and tissue rehabilitation. Scaffolds with a mean pore size of 65 μm presented superior results and could be an alternative for pulp regeneration.

Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease strongly linked to the sustained accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Eliminating excessive ROS and modulating the periodontal microenvironment to suppress inflammation represents a promising therapeutic approach for the treatment of periodontitis. Fisetin (FIS) is a naturally occurring flavonoid known for its strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. However, its poor water solubility and low bioavailability limit its therapeutic efficacy. Carbon dots (CDs), as an emerging nanomaterial, offer advantages such as simple synthesis, good biocompatibility, and low cost. To overcome the limitations of FIS, this study synthesized fisetin-derived carbon dots (FIS-CDs) via a hydrothermal method. The resulting FIS-CDs exhibits excellent water solubility, favorable biocompatibility, and demonstrates excellent ROS-scavenging capability without the need for further modification. In vitro FIS-CDs significantly reduced intracellular ROS levels, alleviate oxidative stress, maintain mitochondrial homeostasis, and suppress the generation of inflammatory cytokines. Furthermore, FIS-CDs exhibit excellent osteogenic potential. In vivo experiments confirmed that FIS-CDs markedly alleviated periodontal inflammation and oxidative damage, suppressed alveolar bone loss, and promoted regeneration of periodontal tissues. Mechanistically, FIS-CDs facilitate the activation of mitophagy by downregulating the SUMOylation of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3). This modulation contributes to the restoration of mitochondrial function, which in turn mitigates cellular injury and limits the secretion of inflammatory mediators. Collectively, these findings underscore the therapeutic promise of FIS-CDs as a safe and effective nanomaterial for periodontitis treatment and suggest a novel molecular target for future drug development.

Na3V2(PO4)3 (NVP) suffers from poor ionic and electronic conductivity. Herein, a dual-optimized design with Cu2+ doping and wrapping in tubular carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is proposed for the first time. This strategy not only modifies the internal electronic structure but also regulates the morphological features of NVP material. Notably, Cu2+ occupying V3+ sites introduces favorable p-type doping effects. Consequently, newly generated holes can act as charge carriers to improve electronic conductivity. Meanwhile, to conserve the charge balance of the whole system, a series of distinctive Na3+xV2−xCux(PO4)3 cathode materials are designed. The Na-rich scheme maintains charge integrity, as well as supplying more active Na+ to take part in the reversible de-intercalation process. Due to the larger ionic radius of Cu2+, Cu2+ doping plays a great role as a pillar to support the crystal skeleton and then expand the Na+ migration channels, thus significantly elevating the ionic transport rate. Furthermore, moderate CNTs are wrapped around the active grains, functioning together with coated carbon layers to construct a highly conductive framework, enhancing electronic transfer. Meanwhile, the tubular CNTs and porous morphology effectively increase the contact areas between active particles and electrolyte, providing more active sites. Furthermore, in situ EIS measurement demonstrates that a stable SEI membrane covers the cycled Na3.07V1.93Cu0.07(PO4)3@CNTs grains to maintain electrode stability and prevent the occurrence of side-effects. Comprehensively, the Na3.07V1.93Cu0.07(PO4)3@CNTs sample releases 124.2 mA h g−1 at 0.1 C. It releases 101.9 and 98.6 mA h g−1 at 10 and 50 C, suggesting superior rate capability.

Background The intestinal epithelial barrier confers protection against the intestinal invasion by pathogens and exposure to food antigens and toxins. Growing studies have linked the gut microbiota to the intestinal epithelial barrier function. The mining of the gut microbes that facilitate the function of intestinal epithelial barrier is urgently needed.Results Here, we studied a landscape of the gut microbiome of seven pig breeds using metagenomics and 16S rDNA gene amplicon sequencing. The results indicated an obvious difference in the gut microbiome between Congjiang miniature (CM) pigs (a native Chinese breed) and commercial Duroc × [Landrace × Yorkshire] (DLY) pigs. CM finishing pigs had stronger intestinal epithelial barrier function than the DLY finishing pigs. Fecal microbiota transplantation from CM and DLY finishing pigs to germ-free (GF) mice transferred the intestinal epithelial barrier characteristics. By comparing the gut microbiome of the recipient GF mice, we identified and validated Bacteroides fragilis as a microbial species that contributes to the intestinal epithelial barrier. B. fragilis-derived 3-phenylpropionic acid metabolite had an important function on the enhancement of intestinal epithelial barrier. Furthermore, 3-phenylpropionic acid facilitated the intestinal epithelial barrier by activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signaling.Conclusion sThese findings suggest that manipulation of B. fragilis and 3-phenylpropionic acid is a promising strategy for improving intestinal epithelial barrier.

Herein, we found that serum concentration of superoxide dismutase 3 (SOD3) was significantly reduced in children with mycoplasma pneumonia (MP) infection. To study the roles of SOD3 in inflammatory regulation of MP infection, human A549 type II alveolar epithelial cells were stimulated with 10 7 CCU/ml of MP to build MP infection in vitro . Secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-8 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were measured via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to assess the inflammatory response of A549 cells. Levofloxacin (LVFX) was used as an anti-inflammatory drug while recombinant TNF-α was used as an inflammatory promotor in MP-infected cells. Transcriptional activity of nuclear factor (NF)-кB was assessed by detecting protein levels of nuclear NF-кB and cytoplasm NF-кB using Western blot analysis. Our data suggested that the expression of SOD3 mRNA and protein, as well as content of SOD3 in cultured supernatant, were time-dependently inhibited in MP-infected A549 cells. However, lentiviruses-mediated SOD3 overexpression alleviated inflammatory response of MP-infected A549 cells, and prevented the unclear translocation of NF-кB, as evidenced by obviously reducing the production of IL-8 and TNF-α in cell cultured supernatant, as well as decreasing nuclear NF-кB while increasing cytoplasm NF-кB.
Inspiringly, SOD3 overexpression induced anti-inflammatory effect and the inactivation of NF-кB was similar to that of 2 μg/ml of LVFX, but reversed by additional TNF-α treatment. Therefore, we can conclude that transcriptional activity of NF-κB was the underlying mechanism, by which SOD3 regulated inflammatory response in MP infection in vitro .

A highly sensitive coating comprising 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) monolayer modified electrospun polystyrene (PS) membranes was constructed on the electrode of quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) for Cu 2+ detection. The three-dimensional fibrous PS membranes with high specific surface area (SSA) were deposited on the electrode of QCM via electrospinning. The PS membranes were sputter coated with gold, then modified with self-assembled monolayer of MPA. The PS-MPA sensors showed fast response (2–3 s) to Cu 2+ and a detection limit down to 100 ppb. Additionally, sensor sensitivity increased concurrently with both increasing PS loading and SSA on QCM electrodes . The response of the PS-MPA sensors with a PS membrane loading of 978 Hz and SSA of 43.31 m 2 /g was 40 times larger than that without membranes when exposed to 1 ppm of Cu 2+ . The sensor responses were reproducible toward Cu 2+ in the 100–5 ppm concentration range, whereas a linear response was found in the 100–1 ppm concentration range. The sensor response to Cu 2+ showed a linear relationship with an increase in pH from 2 to 7. Moreover, the sensors also exhibited chelation selectivity for other transition metal ions in the descending order Cu 2+ > Ni 2+ > Zn 2+ > Fe 2+ at concentration between 1 and 5 ppm.
