The chitosan/fly-ash-cenospheres/γ-Fe 2 O 3 (CTS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 /FACs) magnetic composites were prepared by microemulsion process. The resulting composites were charcterized by XRD, FT-IR, SEM, TGA , DTG and VSM, and the results indicated that CTS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 /FACs exhibited magnetic property ( M s = 6.553 emu g −1 ) and thermal stability, and composed of chitosan wrapping magnetic γ-Fe 2 O 3 and fly-ash-cenospheres (thickness of the cross-linked chitosan was about 5.2 μm). Then the CTS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 /FACs were employed as adsorbents for the fast removal of bisphenol A (BPA) and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol (TCP) from aqueous solutions. The adsorption performances of CTS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 /FACs were investigated by batch mode experiments with respect to pH, temperature, initial concentration, contact time and binary solution system. The Langmuir isotherm model was fitted to the equilibrium data better than the Freundlich model, and the kinetic properties were well described by the pseudo-second-order equation. The effects of binary solution systems also demonstrated that BPA adsorption onto CTS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 /FACs was more affected by the simultaneous presence of competitive phenolic compound than that of TCP. In addition, the resulting composite reusability without obviously deterioration in performance was demonstrated by at least three repeated cycles.

In view of the fact that improper and excessive use of pesticides has posed severe threats to food quality, human health, ecological security, and aquatic ecosystems. A novel electrochemical sensing platform was fabricated with nitrogen, phosphorous, and boron ternary-doped reduced graphene oxide-supported cross-linked γ-CD-metal organic framework (NPB-rGO/CL-γ-CD-MOF) nanocomposites for the sensitive detection of carbendazim (CBZ). Choosing ethylenediamine, phytic acid, and boric acid as the N, P, and B source, the pre-synthesized NPB-rGO acted as the conductive substrate to further support CL-γ-CD-MOF from cross-linking γ-CD-MOF with diphenyl carbonate. The formed NPB-rGO/CL-γ-CD-MOF nanocomposites could accommodate numerous γ-CD molecules in CL-γ-CD-MOF for the specific capture of more CBZ via the host-guest interaction and activate the charge groups and spin densities of adjacent carbon atoms in NPB-rGO for the accelerative diffusion of CBZ towards the electrode surface. Such synergistic effect endowed the high sensitivity and selectivity for monitoring CBZ with the wide concentration range of 0.5–135 μM and low detection limit of 0.12 μΜ. Moreover, the designed electrochemical sensor was smoothly applied to detect CBZ in practical analyses with satisfactory results, which demonstrates that NPB-rGO/CL-γ-CD-MOF nanocomposites possess the bright prospect to become ideal electrode candidates in pesticide residue assays.

Combination therapy with PD-1 blockade and IL-2 substantially improves anti-tumor efficacy comparing to monotherapy. The underlying mechanisms responsible for the synergistic effects of the combination therapy remain enigmatic. Here we show that PD-1 ligation results in BATF-dependent transcriptional induction of the membrane-associated E3 ubiquitin ligase MARCH5, which mediates K27-linked polyubiquitination and lysosomal degradation of the common cytokine receptor γ chain (γ c ). PD-1 ligation also activates SHP2, which dephosphorylates γ c Y357 , leading to impairment of γ c family cytokine-triggered signaling. Conversely, PD-1 blockade restores γ c level and activity, thereby sensitizing CD8 + T cells to IL-2. We also identified Pitavastatin Calcium as an inhibitor of MARCH5, which combined with PD-1 blockade and IL-2 significantly improves the efficacy of anti-tumor immunotherapy in mice. Our findings uncover the mechanisms by which PD-1 signaling antagonizes γ c family cytokine-triggered immune activation and demonstrate that the underlying mechanisms can be exploited for increased efficacy of combination immunotherapy of cancer.

In this work, a mesoporous silica (SBA-15) was synthesized using a hydrothermal method and the surface of the SBA-15 was further modified by utilizing the organosilane compound γ- aminopropyltriethoxysilane(APTES); FT-IR testing confirmed the successful grafting of these organic groups onto the surface of the SBA-15, the result being the AP-S. Composite films were subsequently prepared through a casting method, with SBA-15 and AP-S serving as the inorganic filler particles, and PVA acting as the matrix material. These films were characterized by tensile texts, dynamic mechanical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, and dielectric measurements. The results showed that the tensile modulus, loss modulus and dielectric properties of the modified AP-S/PVA composite films were improved compared with those of SBA-15/PVA, with the tensile strength being the largest at 145.25 MPa when the AP-S content was 2%. This result combined with the SEM analysis, shows that the incorporation of SBA-15 modified by APTES into PVA films can effectively improve the dispersion of SBA-15 in the PVA films, which can also explain the performance enhancement.

Lignin nanoparticles (LNPs) can significantly address the heterogeneity of lignin and enhance its application potential. However, the structure activity relationship between the structure of lignin and LNPs has been underexplored. In this study, lignin was extracted using a ternary deep eutectic solvents (DES) of choline chloride (ChCl)/5-sulfosalicylic acid (5Saa)/γ-valerolactone (GVL). The molecular structures of DES Ⅰ-L, DES Ⅱ-L, and DES Ⅲ-L were regulated by varying the temperature (85, 105, and 125 °C). Compared to softwood kraft lignin (SKL), lignin with small molecular weight was obtained. In particular, good homogeneity (PDI 1.55, 1.58, and 1.59) was found. The dispersion stability and pH response of DES Ⅰ-LNPs, DES Ⅱ-LNPs, and DES Ⅲ-LNPs were remarkable. In particular, DES Ⅱ-LNPs was the smallest (32 nm) and exhibited the highest stability (no flocculation within 90 d). DES-LNPs exhibited high shear viscosity, a gentle shear decay trend, low yield stress and shear sensitivity. The phenolic hydroxyl groups rich in lignin promoted the interaction, leading to an increase in the size of LNPs. Fortunately, its smaller molecular weight formed an effective complement. The structure activity relationship between the structure of lignin and LNPs was established, providing theoretical support for the efficient conversion and application of LNPs.

γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter in the brain with many physiological functions. Therefore, this work establishes an efficient biosynthesis process to achieve the high production of food-grade GABA. Firstly, we adopted a directional colorimetric screening method and then obtained the strain Lactobacillus brevis ( Lb. brevis) CGMCC 24975 with 22.61 g/L GABA in shake flasks, much higher than Lb. brevis ATCC 367 (3.07 g/L) due to its more efficient and stable expression of its glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) system. After exploring the effects of optimal fermentation conditions and oxygen on GABA production, we found that anaerobic fermentation could increase GABA production by up-regulating gad operon expression and activating GADase. Finally, we developed an oil-sealed anaerobic fermentation process with 157.90 g/L GABA in a 5 L bioreactor, which was 6.98-fold of that in shake flasks. This work includes a complete process from screening GABA-producing strains to developing efficient fermentation processes, laying the foundation for producing food-safe GABA.

Artemisia argyi H.Lév. & Vaniot, a traditional Chinese medicine with a history spanning over two millennia, has been extensively used in folk medicine to treat dysmenorrhea, uterine bleeding and inflammation. Recent studies have demonstrated that the essential oil extracted from Artemisia argyi H.Lév. & Vaniot, known as AAEO, exhibits significant anti-tumor properties against liver and lung cancers. There is a scarcity of research on the potential impact of AAEO on pancreatic cancer (PC) cells. In this study, UPLC-MS/MS-based metabolomics method was established to evaluate the effect of AAEO on the proliferation of PC cells. The differential compounds included 5-oxoproline, glutamate, γ-glutamylcysteine, glutathione, arachidonic acid, adrenal acid and linoleic acid were detected by metabolomics, enriching in the γ-glutamyl cycle and polyunsaturated fatty acid metabolism, which were closely related to ferroptosis. Meanwhile, AAEO dramatically increased the levels of intracellular iron ion via up-regulation of TFR1, augmented reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde in a dose-dependent manner by down-regulation of γ-glutamyl cycle through decreasing expressions of SLC7A11. Additionally, β-caryophyllene oxide, one of the main components of AAEO, could covalently bind to Cys in SW1990 cells to form a conjugate Cpo-Cys, resulting in the inhibition of glutathione synthesis. Importantly, the ferroptosis inhibitor deferoxamine significantly blocked the inhibitory effect of AAEO on SW1990 cells. Meanwhile, β-caryophyllene oxide, dihydro-β-ionone and α-bisabolol had strong binding force with GPX4, SLC7A11 and TFR1, respectively. These findings showed that AAEO induced ferroptosis via regulation of γ-glutamyl cycle by SLC7A11 and iron disorders by TFR1. Our study discovered AAEO as a potential therapeutic approach to induce ferroptosis to prevent or treat PC.

Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) exhibits excellent cross-linking effects of myofibrillar proteins, it is prone to self-aggregation, causing excessive cross-linking and moisture loss of gels, which limits its application as a food additive in surimi products. Here, through combination γ-cyclodextrin and EGCG into one inclusion complex, we achieved proper usage of EGCG in shrimp surimi products: elevating both water holding capability and texture properties (hardness, chewiness and resilience). Moreover, the mechanism behind excellent performance was elucidated: as texture modifiers, the complexes improved gel network integrity through intermolecular interactions and moderated disulfide bonds; and as water retainer agents, the complexes promoted transformation of nitrogen in proteins towards the form of protonated amino, facilitating the occurrence of hydration. Furthermore, the inclusion complexes brought a higher phenolic retention within products in contrast with direct addition of EGCG. This work may propose novel insights for the usage of polyphenols as additives in surimi-based products.

Methylcyclohexane diisocyanate (HTDI) is the core raw material for the synthesis of high-grade polyurethane . Aiming at the problems existing environmental pollution and safety risks in the phosgene process, a novel and green synthesis route of HTDI was proposed. We studied the catalytic hydrogenation of dimethyl toluene dicarbamate (TDC) benzene ring to methyl cyclohexyldicarbamate (HTDC) in this novel route. The effects of metal active components, supports and metal Rh loadings on the catalytic performance were investigated. It was found that the supported Rh/γ-Al 2 O 3 catalyst had excellent catalytic activity and selectivity. The yield of HTDC was close to 100 % at 100 °C under 3 MPa hydrogen pressure. However, the catalyst was deactivated seriously after the reaction. The organic matter adsorbed on the catalyst surface and covered the active metal was the main reason for the catalyst deactivation . Fortunately, the deactivated catalyst could be regenerated by solvent washing and high temperature calcination .

The transformation of lignocellulosic biomass to platform compounds (γ-valerolactone, GVL) was a significant component in biomass development. Herein, sulfonated Zr-based metal-organic frameworks (MOF-808), a bifunctional heterogeneous catalyst with Lewis and Bronsted acid sites, were prepared to catalyze the one-pot cascade reaction of furfural (FUR) to GVL. The successful modification of the sulfonic group on MOF-808 was substantiated by multiple characterization methods. By adjusting the sulfuric acid concentration to balance the Lewis acid and Bronsted acid sites of the catalyst, S-808–2.37 was confirmed as the preferred catalyst and a 60.4 % GVL yield was achieved with 99.1 % carbon balance under the optimal conditions. Moreover, the 72.8 % GVL yield reached in the 40x magnification experiment also boded well for the catalyst’s application potential. The work in this paper opened up new perspectives for the application of MOF-808 porous materials in the field of selective catalytic conversion of biomass involving multi-step reactions.

In this study, a novel γ-Fe 2 O 3 /biochar (BF γ ) composite by a plant in-situ enrichment and one-step pyrolysis strategy was prepared, which was applied as a photocatalyst to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of p-chlorophenol (4-CP) under visible light irradiation (BF γ /PMS/Vis) system. The characterization results exhibited that γ-Fe 2 O 3 with localized carbon doping was evenly embedded in biochar during the pyrolysis. BF γ exhibited better photoresponse properties than biochar (BC) and γ-Fe 2 O 3 . The removal efficiency of this system for 4-CP reached 96.41% under optimal conditions. This system showed high removal efficiency with a wide pH range (3.0–13.0) and under conditions of different organic pollutants . It also showed strong resistance to interference with co-existing inorganic ions and humic acid (HA). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and radical scavenging experiments revealed that the reactive oxygen species (ROS) in this system included SO 4 - ·, ·OH, ·O 2 - and 1 O 2 . The density functional theoretical (DFT) calculations further revealed the promotion of localized carbon doping in γ-Fe 2 O 3 on electron transfer and photoresponse, including C-O bond (d=1.29 Å), C-Fe bond (d=1.80 Å) and band gap value (E gap < 0.72 eV). This study provides new insights into constructing environmentally-friendly catalysts and the possibility of the solid waste recycling for other wetland plants.

As an environmentally friendly cleaning agent, Z -1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene (HCFO-1233zd( Z )) can realize industrial production by the isomerization of HCFO-1233zd( E ). Herein, various isomerization catalysts with different structures, compositions and acid properties were prepared through the fluorination of γ-Al 2 O 3 with CHF 3 by controlling the activation conditions. For the first time, the catalysts for HCFO-1233zd( E ) isomerization were systematically studied by XRD, N 2 physisorption, XPS, SEM, MAS NMR spectroscopy, NH 3 -TPD and py-IR. The active site of this reaction was revealed and the catalyst deactivation mechanism was proposed. It turned out that HCFO-1233zd( E ) isomerization prefers to occur at Lewis acid sites with moderate density and strength. The amorphous particles composed of γ-Al 2 O 3 , Al 2 O 3 (F) and α-AlF 3 ( R 3 ¯ c ) at 450 °C exhibit highly catalytic activity for HCFO-1233zd( E ) isomerization. After 100 h evaluation, it was found that residual γ-Al 2 O 3 can be fluorinated by HCFO-1233zd( E ) to form needle-like structures which could induce the amorphous Al 2 O 3 (F) particles to reorganize and give cubic structures, where the Lewis acid properties were enhanced, leading to catalyst deactivation.
