Programed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) is a protein biomarker overexpressed on exosomes derived from tumor cells. It plays an important role in tumor diagnosis, screening, evaluation of therapeutic efficacy, and prognosis. In this study, a facile method is presented to detect PD-L1-overexpressing cancer exosomes with high specificity and sensitivity. First, gold nanospheres (GNSs) were attached to the bottom of an eight-well chambered slide by electrostatic adsorption, forming the detection substrate. Then, Cy5-labeled CD63 aptamers (i.e., the capture probes) were modified on the GNSs by Au–S bond. After adding samples containing target exosomes which were stained by membrane dyes DiI in advance, FAM-labeled PD-L1 aptamers (i.e., the immunoprobes) were added to recognize PD-L1 on the target exosomes. By triple-color fluorescence co-localization (TFC) of the Cy5, DiI, and FAM channels, highly sensitive and reliable detection of the PD-L1-overexpressing exosomes was achieved in the concentration range 7.78 × 10 1 to 7.78 × 10 4 particles/mL with a detection limit down to 6 particles/mL. The advantages of the proposed detection method include the following; first, the detection substrate is easy to prepare and convenient to clean. Second, the TFC strategy can completely exclude nonspecific reaction sites and thus significantly improves the accuracy. Such a facile and reliable detection method holds a great potential in exosome-based cancer theranostics. Graphical abstract In this paper, we proposed a triple-color fluorescence co-localization (TFC) strategy to significantly improve the reliability of exosome detection and the detection substrate is easy to prepare and convenient to clean. In addition, the LOD is down to 6 particles/mL, which is quite low compared with other detection methods

Materials with accurate and durable gas detection are essential for gas sensors. We developed a facile and effective method to deposit Pd onto WO3 nanosheets and used the samples for hydrogen gas sensing. The combination of the 2D ultrathin nanostructure of WO3 and the spillover effect of Pd enables a detection concentration down to 20 ppm of hydrogen and high selectivity against other gases including methane, butane, acetone, isopropanol, etc. Moreover, the durability of the sensing materials was testified through 50 cycles of exposure to 200 ppm of hydrogen. These outstanding performances are mainly attributed to a homogeneous and tenacious decoration of Pd on the surface of WO3 nanosheets, providing an attractive choice for practical applications.

Pd@MIL-100(Fe) composite nanoparticles were synthesized and characterized by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), powder X-ray diffraction analysis, nitrogen adsorption-desorption analysis, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS) analysis, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) and element mapping. Due to the local restriction or confinement effect of the unique pore/surface structure within the MIL-100(Fe) nanospheres , small Pd nanoparticle (4–6 nm) were obtained with high stability without using any surfactant as stabilizer . The as-synthesized Pd@MIL-100(Fe) composite nanoparticles were then employed for the catalytic reduction of 2/3/4-nitrophenol, which exhibiting high catalytic activity and recyclability attributed to the synergistic effect between Pd nanoparticles and MIL-100(Fe) nanospheres.

Incorporating Pt with core metals into Pt-based core-shell catalysts is regarded as a promising strategy to substantially enhance the catalytic properties towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in fuel cells due to the synergetic effect between distinct metals. In this wok, ultrathin Pt skins with two atomic layers were epitaxially coated on as-prepared icosahedral Au 50 Pd 50 , Au 60 Pd 40 and Au 66 Pd 34 nanocrystal seeds, which are constructed with alloyed cores and Pd shells with different thickness. Through electron microscopic characterizations, Pd interlayers with tunable thickness of 3, 6, and 12 atomic layers can be found in the Au 66 Pd 34 @Pt, Au 60 Pd 40 @Pt and Au 50 Pd 50 @Pt icosahedra, respectively. These icosahedral AuPd@Pd@Pt nanocrystals show substantially enhanced activities and durabilities in electrocatalytic measurements towards ORR compared to Au 75 Pd 25 @Pt icosahedra without Pd interlayer and commercial Pt/C catalysts. Specifically, Au 60 Pd 40 @Pt icosahedra with 6 atomically thick Pd interlayer display the best electrocatalytic performances, whose mass activities before and after durability tests of 50,000 cycles are 11.6 and 30.2 times, respectively, as high as that of the commercial Pt/C.

Reasonable construction of high activity and selectivity electrocatalysts is crucial to achieve efficient ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR). However, the oxidation of ethanol tends to produce CO species that poison the active centers of the EOR electrocatalysts. Herein, a unique amorphous CrO x -protected defect-rich ultrafine Pd nanowires (CrO x -Pd NWs) is developed. On the one hand, the CrO x layer can act as a protective layer to maintain the structure of the nanowire. On the other hand, it can play the role of OH regulator to optimize the adsorption energy barrier of intermediate species in Pd nanowire, thereby enhancing the ability of the catalyst to resist CO poisoning. The CrO x -Pd NWs exhibit excellent EOR performance with 3.64 times higher mass activity and 50 mV lower CO electro-oxidation potential than commercial Pd black. The results show that the CrO x layer promotes the dissociation of H 2 O into OH ads , while the CrO x transfers electrons to neighboring Pd atoms optimizing the electronic configuration of Pd, thus selectively oxidizing ethanol to acetate and preventing the formation of toxic * CO. This work provides an effective strategy for the synthesis of nanowire materials with oxide/metal interfaces and offers new ideas for the design of catalysts that can efficiently drive EOR.

To develop photocatalysts with desirable compositions and structures for improving the efficiency and selectivity of CO2 conversion to CH4 under mild conditions is of great importance. Here, we design an effective photocatalyst of bimetal (Ag/Pd) nanoalloys supported on nitrogen-doped TiO2 nanosheet for CO2 conversion. Such a novel photocatalyst combines multiple advantages of abundant Ti3+ ions, oxygen vacancies, and substitutional nitrogen that are favorable for catalyzing CO2 reduction. It was found that CO2 could be efficiently transformed to CH4 under mild conditions, i.e., in aqueous solution and at atmospheric pressure and room temperature. The maximum production rate of CH4 can reach 79.0 μmol g–1 h–1. Moreover, the Ag/Pd bimetals supported on N-doped TiO2 nanosheet exhibit high selectivity to CH4. The as-synthesized photocatalyst can be well recycled for CO2 reduction.

Enormous success has been achieved in antitumor therapy with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors; however, less than 3 out of 10 patients show clinical benefits. An interesting phenomenon of patients who experienced durable clinical responses to PD-L1 blockade usually being the patients with high PD-L1 expression was noticed. Accordingly, the evaluation of PD-L1 is of great benefit to predict the immunotherapy response against PD-1/PD-L1. A small-molecule single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) tracer [99mTc]Tc-SG2C-CBM containing a biphenyl moiety was designed and synthesized for the measurement of PD-L1 expression. The radiolabeling yield (RLY) and radiochemical purity (RCP) of [99mTc]Tc-SG2C-CBM were detected to be over 93% under the optimized labeling conditions. [99mTc]Tc-SG2C-CBM was discovered to be equipped with not only good stability but also suitable lipophilicity. In the cellular assays, [99mTc]Tc-SG2C-CBM showed moderate affinity to PD-L1 and 6.87-fold higher uptake in A375-hPD-L1 cells than in A375 cells. Then, the in vivo biodistribution results of the A375-hPD-L1 tumor-bearing mice showed that the radioactivity uptake in tumors was about 2.96 ± 0.76 and 2.31 ± 0.26 fold that in muscles and bones at 2 h post-injection, respectively. SPECT imaging was consistent with the biological distribution of [99mTc]Tc SG2C-CBM, with the uptake being mainly in the liver and less pronounced in tumors. The results of these studies indicate that [99mTc]Tc-SG2C-CBM may be a probe for imaging PD-L1 expression, but further research is needed.

The combined delivery of chemotherapeutics with checkpoint inhibitors of the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway provides a new approach for cancer treatment. Small-molecule peptide inhibitors possess short production cycle, low immunogenicity, and fewer side effects; however, their potential in cancer therapy is hampered by the rapid biodegradation and a nanocarrier is needed for efficient drug delivery. Herein, anticancer drug doxorubicin (DOX) and PD-L1 inhibitor peptide P-12 are co-loaded by a lipid polymer nanocomplex based on poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and DSPE-PEG. Octaarginine (R8)-conjugated DSPE-PEG renders the LPN efficient internalization by cancer cells. The optimal nanomedicine LPN-30-R82K@DP shows a diameter of 125 nm and a DOX and P-12 loading content of 5.0 and 6.2%, respectively. LPN-30-R82K@DP exhibits good physiological stability and enhanced cellular uptake by cancer cells. It successfully induces immunogenic cell death and PD-L1 blockade in CT26 cancer cells. The in vivo antitumor study further suggests that co-loaded nanomedicine efficiently suppresses CT26 tumor growth and elicits antitumor immune response. This study manifests that lipid polymer nanocomplexes are promising drug carriers for the efficient chemo-immunotherapy of cancer.

We designed an amplified detection strategy for the sensitive determination of lead ions (Pb 2+ ) based on a target-triggered nuclear acid cleavage of Pb 2+ -specific DNAzyme as a selectivity interface combined with Pd-Pt alloys modified Fe-MOFs (Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs) hybrids acting as the signal tag. Streptavidin modified reduced graphene oxide-tetraethylene pentamine-gold nanoparticles (rGO-TEPA-Au) served as a sensor platform for immobilizing more DNAzyme. In the presence of Pb 2+ , the substrate DNA strand can be specifically cleaved at the ribonucleotide site by DNAzyme to produce a new single-DNA on the interface. Then, the hairpin DNA with hybrid strand matched by its complement to the single-DNA was employed to modify the Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs bioconjugates for signal amplification . Fe-MOFs/PdPt NPs catalyze hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) to produce the electrochemical signal which was recorded by chronoamperometry . Benefiting from the Pb 2+ -dependent DNAzyme, the proposed method can selectively detect Pb 2+ in the presence of other metal ions . The newly designed biosensor exhibited a good linear relationship ranging from 0.005 to 1000 nmol L −1 with a low detection limit of 2 pM (S/N = 3) for Pb 2+ . This Pb 2+ -dependent DNAzyme based ultrasensitive biosensor showed high sensitivity and selectivity, providing potential application for Pb 2+ detection in naturally contaminated sewage and spiked drinking water samples.

Upgrading furfural (FAL) to cyclopentanone (CPO) is of great importance for the synthesis of high-value chemicals and biomass utilization. The hydrogenative ring-rearrangement of FAL is catalyzed by metal-acid bifunctional catalysts. The Lewis acidity is a key factor in promoting the rearrangement of furan rings and achieving a high selectivity to CPO. In this work, highly dispersed Pd nanoparticles were successfully encapsulated into the cavities of a Zr based MOF, UiO-66-NO2, by impregnation using a double-solvent method (DSM) followed by H2reduction. The obtained Pd/UiO-66-NO2catalyst showed a significantly better catalytic performance in the aforementioned reaction than the Pd/UiO-66 catalyst due to the higher Lewis acidity of the support. Moreover, by using a thermal treatment. The Lewis acidity can be further increased through the creating of missing-linker defects. The resulting defective Pd/UiO-66-NO2exhibited the highest CPO selectivity and FAL conversion of 96.6% and 98.9%, respectively. In addition, the catalyst was able to maintain a high activity and stability after four consecutive runs. The current study not only provides an efficient catalytic reaction system for the hydrogenative ring-rearrangement of furfural to cyclopentanone but also emphasizes the importance of defect sites.Keywords:Pd/UiO-66-NO2;furfural;hydrogenative ring-rearrangement;cyclopentanone;double-solvent method

In this paper, superparamagnetic Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 nanoparticles were applied to adsorb Au(III)/Pd(II)/Pt(IV) in HCl medium. The successful synthesis of Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 was characterized through TEM, SEM and FT-IR. Electrostatic interaction between magnetic NPs and metal anions was proposed as the main adsorption mechanism by zeta potential analysis. Maximum adsorption capacities and adsorption behaviors under metal anions concentrations, acidity, NaCl, kinetic and isotherm models were investigated. Notably, the Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 shows the excellent acidity and salinity resistance on Au(III), Pd(II) adsorption. The separation routine among Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(IV) was proposed. As investigated, Pt(IV) could be isolated due to the less adsorption amount onto Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 -NH 2 (≤1%). Then, the adsorbed Au(III) was eluted selectively by HCl + N-hexanol alcohol + ethanol + H 2 O 2 mixing solution. Then, the adsorbed Pd(II) was completely eluted by thiourea solution. The recovery efficiencies of Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(IV) were kept over 92%, 97% and 94% respectively, during 5 turns of cycling separation experiments. Total loss amount of Fe is around 7%. Hence that, the particle demonstrates the good stability and high adsorption capacity, which possess great potential for practical Au(III), Pd(II) and Pt(IV) separation.

Pd/Al2O3 catalysts modified by different chemical elements (Mg, Si, Ce, and Zr) were tested for methane (CH4) catalytic combustion, and PdO nanoparticles loaded on modified Al2O3 were systematically studied. These conditions assess the carrier effects of Pd/Al2O3 and acid strength influences on CH4 combustion. We observed carrier effects on activation energy through tuning Pd 3d binding energies (BEs) and on pre-exponential factors (A) through Pd dispersion and acidity on supports. When the BE of Pd 3d5/2 is 337.3 eV, PdO nanoparticles loaded on modified Al2O3 have excellent activity in cracking the C−H bond of CH4, which leads to the lowest activation energy (Ea), regardless of the size effect of the PdO nanoparticle. Furthermore, a theoretical construction that acid sites on catalysts promote the reversible elementary step (2Pd−OH ↔ Pd−O* + Pd* + H2O) right shifts improving the A dependency on the quantity of exposed Pd* and Pd−O*. As a result, Al2O3, as the carrier, not only modifies the electronic characteristics and size of supported PdO nanoparticles but also participates in the reaction process via acid sites on the surface of Al2O3.
