Direct recycling of spent LiFePO₄ (LFP) cathodes is a sustainable and energy-efficient strategy for recovering valuable materials while preserving the intrinsic olivine structure. Herein, we report a LiI-assisted regeneration approach that achieves electronic structure reconstruction and reinforced Fe–O d–p orbital hybridization, enabling simultaneous repair of structural defects and enhancement of Li⁺ transport kinetics. The reductive I⁻ ions promote Fe³⁺→Fe²⁺ conversion and effectively eliminate Fe–Li antisite defects, while Li⁺ replenishment restores the stoichiometry of degraded LFP. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that LiI triggers a downward shift of the Fe 3d band center and an upward shift of the O 2p band center, narrowing their energy separation and strengthening Fe–O covalency. These electronic modifications reduce Li⁺ migration barriers and reconstruct continuous Li⁺ transport channels, as further validated by ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. In-situ XRD measurements confirm reduced unit-cell volume fluctuations and enhanced FeO₆–PO₄ framework stability, demonstrating improved structural reversibility during cycling. Benefiting from this coupled structural–electronic reconstruction, regenerated LFP delivers 146.9 mAh g⁻¹ at 1 C and retains 97.4% capacity after 500 cycles, outperforming the spent material. This work proposes a green and low-energy direct regeneration route for cathode materials and provides important theoretical guidance for their efficient repair and regeneration.

Electrosynthesis of cyclohexanone oxime (CYCO) from nitrite (NO 2 ⁻) and cyclohexanone (CYC) offers a sustainable alternative for green CYCO production. However, precise control of the NO 2 ⁻ reduction pathway to generate *NH 2 OH intermediates while suppressing CYC/CYCO hydrogenation and hydrogen evolution reaction remains challenging. Here, an intermetallic PdInBi metallene ( i -PdInBiene) catalyst was designed for CYCO electrosynthesis, achieving nearly 100% yield and an optimal Faradaic efficiency of 40.73 ± 2.74%. Combination of in situ characterizations with theoretical calculations reveal that the asymmetric p-d-p orbital hybridization in atomic-scale ordered configuration could regulate the local electronic structure of active sites and induce short pathway-hydrogen spillover. The *H modulation over specific active sites favors the selective reduction of NO 2 ⁻ to *NH 2 OH, promotes its spontaneous coupling with CYC to produce CYCO, while suppressing undesired side reactions. The system’s economic feasibility and broad substrate applicability further highlight its potential as a mild, sustainable strategy for oxime electrosynthesis.

To alleviate kinetics imbalance and capacity insufficiency simultaneously, a novel hierarchical structure (SnCu2Se4/d-Ti3C2Tx/NPC) composed of delaminated Ti3C2Tx, SnCu2Se4 nanoparticles, and N-doped porous carbon layers is designed as a battery-type anode for lithium/sodium ion hybrid capacitor (LIC/SIC). The combination of SnCu2Se4 nanoparticles with high specific capacity, d-Ti3C2Tx with accelerated ion diffusion path, and NPC with enhanced electronic conductivity makes the SnCu2Se4/d-Ti3C2Tx/NPC composite possess excellent cycling stabilities in half-cell lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries (LIB and SIB), with capacities of 114 mAh g–1 after 6000 cycles at 10 A g–1 for LIB and 296 mAh g–1 after 900 cycles at 1.0 A g–1 for SIB. The rate performance is also outstanding, with recovered capacity of 738 mAh g–1 at 0.1 A g–1 after cycles at current densities up to 50 A g–1 for LIB. Subsequently, LIC and SIC based on the SnCu2Se4/d-Ti3C2Tx/NPC anode and activated carbon cathode exhibit high energy densities of 147.9 and 158.6 Wh kg–1 at a power density of 100 W kg–1, respectively. They also possess distinctive long lifespans with capacity retentions of 78 and 81% after 10,000 cycles at 1.0 A g–1, respectively, demonstrating the feasibility of SnCu2Se4/d-Ti3C2Tx/NPC toward energy devices requiring high energy density, power density, and long-term stability.

Pathogenic bacteria are a major cause of foodborne diseases, which not only seriously threaten human safety but also cause significant losses for the national economy. Therefore, it is very important and urgent to develop a method for the detection of pathogenic bacteria with high accuracy, high sensitivity, and easy interpretation for use in food safety and medical hygiene. Herein, based upon the sensitive color changes induced by the dispersion and aggregation states of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), a point-of-care (POCT) colorimetric assay was constructed for the rapid and sensitive visual detection of pathogenic bacteria. The POCT visual sensing system is composed of two individual elements: (1) an alkaline phosphatase/graphene oxide (GO@PEI-ALP) nanoconjugate that can release free ALP molecules in the presence of pathogenic bacteria; (2) D-glucose-6-phosphate (pGlu) and 3-aminobenzene boric acid (AMBA)-functionalized AuNPs (pGlu/AMBA-AuNPs) that are cross-linked upon the digestion of pGlu by free ALP molecules, resulting in a significant color change. Under optimized conditions, the detection limit of this sensing system for target bacteria was as low as 24 CFU mL −1 and was successfully applied to complex real samples. This proposed rapid colorimetric assay has high sensitivity, accuracy, and practicability with an intuitive signal and is expected to provide new inspiration for the detection of pathogenic bacteria.

A rapid colorimetric method for detecting sodium benzoate in food products was established based on the d -amino acid oxidase (DAAO) and 2D metal organic framework (2D MOF) nanosheets mediated cascade enzyme reactions. Firstly, the synthesized 2D MOF nanosheets served as high efficient nanozyme with outstanding peroxidase-like catalytic activity and catalyzed the color reaction between H 2 O 2 and 3, 3’, 5, 5′- tetramethylbenzidine. Secondly, sodium benzoate as a competitive inhibitor of DAAO, could influence the production of H 2 O 2 in DAAO mediated oxidation reaction. After a combination of those two reactions, this colorimetric quantitative method was constructed and validated for sodium benzoate determination with wide linear range (2.0–200.0 μM), low limit of detection (2.0 μM), high accuracy (recovery rate in 95.80–108.00%) and satisfied selectivity . Lastly, this method was utilized to analyze sodium benzoate concentration in juice, wine and vinegar by naked eyes.

Abstract Biocompatible and bioactive scaffolds with multiscale porosity, shape memory effect and drug delivery performance are highly promising in bone tissue engineering applications within the approach of minimally invasive surgical implantation. In this study, we report an effective method to fabricate multiscale porous bioactive (MPB) scaffolds with shape memory effect by freeze drying of 3D printed high internal phase Pickering emulsion (Pickering HIPE) templates stabilized by hydrophobically modified hydroxyapatite and silica nanoparticles. MPB scaffolds containing a shape memory polymer matrix of poly(D,L-lactide-co-trimethylene carbonate) display high porosity and fully interconnected filament networks with multiscale pore structures. The in vitro biomineralization study verifies that MPB scaffolds are bioactive with the apatite formation ability. The thermal property testing shows that the glass transition temperature of MPB scaffolds is easily tuned to fall between 45.9 and 49.1 °C by varying the HIPE composition. Moreover, MPB scaffolds exhibit observable shape memory properties with fast shape recovery. The antibacterial drug enrofloxacin can be efficiently loaded into MPB scaffolds and then released in a sustained manner displaying effective antimicrobial effect. Furthermore, cell culture assays confirm that MPB scaffolds could sustain the cell growth, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation, indicating the cytocompatibility and osteoinduction activity of MPB scaffolds. Therefore, combining freeze drying with 3D printing of Pickering HIPE templates paves the way towards MPB scaffolds with shape memory effect, which are promising as minimally invasive implantation scaffolds in bone tissue engineering applications.

The immobilization of catalysts hinders the application of nanosized photocatalysts in wastewater treatment. In this study, a simple method for the preparation of flexible composite non-woven catalysts with a good spectral response is presented. Firstly, the porous g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets containing nitrogen defects (DCN) and sodium alginate (SA) were blended to prepare the casting solution and then coated on the surface of polyester and viscose blend non-woven fabric (NW). Finally, the robust three-dimensional composite non-woven catalyst (DCN@SA/NW) was constructed by cross-linking with CaCl 2 . The as-prepared samples were characterized by different physicochemical techniques including SEM, EDS, FTIR, Raman, XRD, XPS, and TGA. The photocatalytic degradation of dyes and antibiotics and self-cleaning and antibacterial properties of the catalyst were investigated. The optimal DCN@SA/NW formulation was 2.0 wt.% DCN and 2.0 wt.% SA. The DCN@SA/NW composite efficiently degraded rhodamine (RhB) and tetracycline hydrochloride (TC). Moreover, the synthesized non-woven composite catalyst was easily recycled and remained stable, indicating its promising potential in wastewater treatment. The DCN@SA/NW also exhibited outstanding self-cleaning and antibacterial performance. This study provides an interesting idea for the research and development of immobilized photocatalysts and has great potential in future practical photocatalytic applications.

Acute liver failure (ALF) is a dramatic liver disease characterized by large areas of inflammation. However, there are no available effective targeted drugs for ALF treatment. In the study, serum biochemical index and H&E were used to explore the amelioration of the liver histopathological changes. The oxidative stress kits, quantitative real-time PCR, western blot, immunohistochemistry, immunofluorescence staining, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and siRNA were used to elucidate the mechanisms underlying isoliquiritigenin (ISL) protection. The results showed that ISL significantly improved the liver pathological changes. Furthermore, ISL reduced oxidative stress by altering the expression of PGC-1α, Nrf2, HO-1, NQO1, Keap1, GCLC, and GCLM in damaged hepatocytes. Moreover, the levels of inflammation-related genes including NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, iNOS, and Mip-2 were repressed by ISL. In addition, ISL alleviated LPS/D-GalN-induced hepatocytes apoptosis by increasing the Bcl-2/Bax ratio and suppressing the expression of cleaved caspase-3. Further in vivo and in vitro evidence proved the involvement of the PGC-1α/Nrf2 signaling pathway in ISL protection. In conclusion, ISL improves the ability of anti-oxidative stress, alleviates inflammatory reaction, apoptosis, and inhibits NLRP3 inflammasome to protect lipopolysaccharide/D-galactosamine (LPS/D-GalN)-induced ALF through activating the PGC-1α/Nrf2 pathway, which provides the possibility for the treatment of ALF.

Autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved mechanism to protect the cells from unfavorable environmental conditions. Inhibition of autophagy has been contemplated as a novel strategy to enhance anticancer efficacy of existing chemotherapeutic agents. We previously reported that pulsatilla saponin D (PSD) was a potent autophagy inhibitor. However, its anticancer potential as adjuvant and underlying mechanisms are still unknown. In this study, we identified that PSD induced the formation of autophagosome in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cells. However, PSD alone and particularly co-treatment with camptothecin remarkably increased p62 protein levels, indicating that PSD strongly inhibited the autophagic cargo degradation. The mechanistic study indicated that PSD profoundly abolished the co-localization of EGFP-LC3 and lysosomal-specific probe LysoTracker Red, suggesting that the autophagosome–lysosome fusion was blocked by PSD, which is similar to the action of chloroquine. In addition, PSD significantly increased lysosomal pH and inhibited the activation of lysosomal cathepsins in both breast cancer cell lines. Furthermore, the accrued p62 resulted in accumulation of ubiquitinated proteins owing to the interaction with p62 and delivery to the malfunctioned autophagosome by PSD. Finally, we demonstrated that PSD synergistically enhanced the anticancer activity of camptothecin (CPT) in cultured breast cancer cells and in mouse xenograft tumor models. Our results indicated that PSD inhibited autophagic flux via blocking autophagosome–lysosome fusion and lysosomal acidification, which may confer a synergistic anti-breast cancer activity of PSD and CPT.

A diblock amphipathic copolymer P3HT–PEO was rationally designed and easily synthesized. By introducing P3HT–PEO into P3HT/PCBM blends, the intramolecular interaction between the P3HT–PEO and the donor/acceptor (D/A) molecule in the blends could make the P3HT–PEO located at P3HT/PCBM domains' interface, which could stabilize the morphology of the bulk-heterojunction and also suppress the acceptor PCBM from severe aggregations under prolonged annealing time. By doping only 5 wt% P3HT–PEO, the device-5 (with 5 wt% P3HT–PEO) exhibited a PCE of 3.60% with thermal annealing at 150 °C for 10 min and remained at 3.61% after annealing for 120 min. In contrasted to the device-0 (without P3HT–PEO), the PCE decreased from 3.26% to 1.61% after annealing at 120 min, which also showed lager clusters of PCBM. This finding will inspire new design of additive materials that can control BHJ morphology through to realize highly efficient and thermally stable solar cells.

ABSTRACT Pharmacokinetic changes induced by radiation following radiotherapy (“RT-PK” phenomenon) are of great significance to the effectiveness and safety of chemotherapeutic agents in clinical settings. The aims of this study were to clarify the organic anion transporters (Oats) involved in the “RT-PK” phenomenon of bestatin in rats following X-ray irradiation and to elucidate its potential mechanism via vitamin D signalling. Pharmacokinetic studies, uptake assays using rat kidney slices and primary proximal tubule cells, and molecular biological studies were performed. Significantly increased plasma concentrations and systemic exposure to bestatin were observed at 24 and 48 h following abdominal X-ray irradiation, regardless of oral or intravenous administration of the drugs in rats. Reduced renal clearance and cumulative urinary excretion of bestatin were observed at 24 and 48 h post-irradiation in rats following intravenous administration. The uptake of the probe substrates p -aminohippuric acid and oestrone 3-sulphate sodium in vitro and the expression of Oat1 and Oat3 in vivo were reduced in the corresponding models following irradiation. Moreover, the upregulation of the vitamin D receptor (Vdr) in mRNA and protein levels negatively correlated with the expressions and functions of Oat1 and Oat3 following irradiation. Additionally, elevated plasma urea nitrogen levels and histopathological changes were observed in rats after exposure to irradiation. The “RT-PK” phenomenon of bestatin occurs in rats after exposure to irradiation, possibly resulting in the regulation of the expressions and activities of renal Oats via activation of the Vdr signalling pathway.

Calycosin‑7‑O‑β‑D‑glucoside (CG), a major active ingredient of Astragali Radix, exerts neuroprotective effects against cerebral ischemia; however, whether the effects of CG are associated with mitochondrial protection remains unclear. The present study explored the role of CG in improving mitochondrial function in a HT22 cell model of oxygen‑glucose deprivation/reperfusion (OGD/R). The Cell Counting Kit‑8 assay, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence and western blotting were performed to investigate the effects of CG on mitochondrial function. The results demonstrated that mitochondrial function was restored after treatment with CG, as indicated by reduced mitochondrial reactive oxygen species levels, increased mitochondrial membrane potential and improved mitochondrial morphology. Overactivated mitophagy was revealed to be inhibited by the regulation of proteins involved in fission [phosphorylated‑dynamin‑related protein 1 (Drp1) and Drp1] and mitophagy (LC3, p62 and translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20), and mitochondrial biogenesis was demonstrated to be enhanced by increased levels of sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) and peroxisome proliferator‑activated receptor γ coactivator‑1α (PGC‑1α). In addition, neuronal apoptosis was ameliorated by CG, as determined by a decreased rate of apoptosis, and levels of caspase‑3 and Bcl‑2/Bax. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that CG may alleviate OGD/R‑induced injury by upregulating SIRT1 and PGC‑1α protein expression, and reducing excessive mitochondrial fission and overactivation of mitophagy.
