Interleukin-22 receptor 1-mediated stimulation of T-type Ca2+ channels enhances sensory neuronal excitability through the tyrosine-protein kinase Lyn-dependent PKA pathway.

BACKGROUND: Interleukin 24 (IL-24) has been implicated in the nociceptive signaling. However, direct evidence and the precise molecular mechanism underlying IL-24's role in peripheral nociception remain unclear. METHODS: Using patch clamp recording, molecular biological analysis, immunofluorescence labeling, siRNA-mediated knockdown approach and behavior tests, we elucidated the effects of IL-24 on sensory neuronal excitability and peripheral pain sensitivity mediated by T-type Ca2+ channels (T-type channels). RESULTS: IL-24 enhances T-type channel currents (T-currents) in trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons in a reversible and dose-dependent manner, primarily by activating the interleukin-22 receptor 1 (IL-22R1). Furthermore, we found that the IL-24-induced T-type channel response is mediated through tyrosine-protein kinase Lyn, but not its common downstream target JAK1. IL-24 application significantly activated protein kinase A; this effect was independent of cAMP and prevented by Lyn antagonism. Inhibition of PKA prevented the IL-24-induced T-current response, whereas inhibition of protein kinase C or MAPK kinases had no effect. Functionally, IL-24 increased TG neuronal excitability and enhanced pain sensitivity to mechanical stimuli in mice, both of which were suppressed by blocking T-type channels. In a trigeminal neuropathic pain model induced by chronic constriction injury of the infraorbital nerve, inhibiting IL-22R1 signaling alleviated mechanical allodynia, which was reversed by blocking T-type channels or knocking down Cav3.2. CONCLUSION: Our findings reveal that IL-24 enhances T-currents by stimulating IL-22R1 coupled to Lyn-dependent PKA signaling, leading to TG neuronal hyperexcitability and pain hypersensitivity. Understanding the mechanism of IL-24/IL-22R1 signaling in sensory neurons may pave the way for innovative therapeutic strategies in pain management.

Impact of Left Renal Vein Ligation on Renal Function Following En Bloc Resection of Segmental Inferior Vena Cava and Right Kidney.

BACKGROUND: Renal function after left renal vein (LRV) ligation following en bloc resection of segmental inferior vena cava (IVC) and right kidney is understudied. We assessed the impact of LRV ligation on postoperative renal function following en bloc resection of segmental IVC and right kidney. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed 28 patients who underwent LRV ligation during en bloc resection of segmental IVC and right kidney. Patient demographics, tumor characteristics, intraoperative factors, complications, length of hospital and intensive care unit (ICU) stay, and patient survival were collected. Pre- and postoperative renal function was retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: Twenty patients underwent robot-assisted surgery and eight patients underwent open surgery. The median operative time was 162 min and estimated blood loss was 350 mL. Ten patients had normal renal function and 12 patients had an initial increase in creatinine but improved gradually. Six patients developed acute renal failure; five patients gradually recovered in 5-32 days after temporary hemodialysis. Renal replacement therapy significantly correlated with maximal anterior-posterior diameter of the LRV (p = 0.001). Complications were observed in 11 cases, four of which were Clavien-Dindo grades I-II. Thirteen patients were alive with no recurrence, nine patients were alive with metastasis, and six cases died during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: LRV ligation following en bloc resection of segmental IVC and right kidney is feasible, with no significant long-term impact on renal function. The maximum anterior-posterior diameter of the LRV is a reliable method for predicting renal replacement therapy in the absence of collateral circulation.

Monolayer directional metasurface for all-optical image classifier doublet.

Diffractive deep neural networks, known for their passivity, high scalability, and high efficiency, offer great potential in holographic imaging, target recognition, and object classification. However, previous endeavors have been hampered by spatial size and alignment. To address these issues, this study introduces a monolayer directional metasurface, aimed at reducing spatial constraints and mitigating alignment issues. Utilizing this methodology, we use MNIST datasets to train diffractive deep neural networks and realize digital classification, revealing that the metasurface can achieve excellent digital image classification results, and the classification accuracy of ideal phase mask plates and metasurface for phase-only modulation can reach 84.73% and 84.85%, respectively. Despite a certain loss of degrees of freedom compared to multi-layer phase mask plates, the single-layer metasurface is easier to fabricate and align, thereby improving spatial utilization efficiency.

Suitability of the MP1000 Platform for Robot-assisted Prostatectomy: A Prospective Randomised Controlled Trial.

Background and objective: Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) is widely used because of the many advantages of a robotic approach. The da Vinci Si robot is one of the most commonly used surgical robot systems, but it may be associated with higher costs owing to the use of consumable surgical supplies. Our aim was to conduct a preliminary investigation of the capability of the MP1000 system for RARP. Methods: In this prospective, multicentre, single-blinded study, we randomly assigned 42 patients scheduled to undergo RARP between April and September 2021 to a da Vinci Si group (control) or an MP1000 group (intervention). Patients underwent RARP performed using the assigned robotic system and were followed up at 3-mo intervals. The primary outcome was the rate of conversion to open/laparoscopic surgery. Secondary outcomes were installation and operation times, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative surgical margin status, hospital stay, incontinence, complications, safety indicators, and surgeon ergonomics. Key findings and limitations: All procedures were successfully completed without conversion to open/laparascopic surgery or major complications. Secondary outcomes, including oncological and ergonomic indicators, did not differ significantly between the groups over the study period. One patient in the control group experienced dysuria (Clavien-Dindo grade 3). No patients had incontinence at 3 mo. A limitation of the study is the small sample size. Conclusions and clinical implications: RARP with the MP1000 system is feasible, safe, and effective in the management of localised prostate cancer. Patient summary: We assessed the effectiveness and safety of the new MP1000 robot system for robot-assisted removal of the prostate in comparison to the da Vinci Si robot. We found no difference in effectiveness or safety among 42 patients with prostate cancer who were assigned randomly to one of the two systems. We conclude that the MP1000 is a suitable robot for this surgery.

The Role of Alpha-7 Nicotinic Acetylcholine Receptors in Pain: Potential Therapeutic Implications.

Chronic pain represents a prevalent and costly medical challenge globally. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs), one type of ligand-gated ion channels found extensively in both the central and peripheral nervous systems, have emerged as promising therapeutic targets for chronic pain. Although there are currently no FDA-approved analgesics specifically targeting nAChRs, accumulating preclinical and clinical evidence suggest that selective ligands for alpha 7 (α7) nAChRs show potential for treating chronic pain, boasting a reduced incidence of side effects compared with other nicotinic receptor types. The recent structural resolution of human α7 nAChRs has confirmed their negative association with heightened pain, providing a valuable foundation for the development of targeted medications. This review presents a comprehensive overview, encompassing insights into the roles of α7 nAChRs derived from structural and functional studies, recent advancements in pharmacology, and investigations into their involvement in the pathophysiology of chronic pain. Moreover, the review addresses the variability in analgesic effects based on the type of receptor agonist and highlights the current research limitations. As such, this review offers potential therapeutic approaches for the development of innovative strategies for chronic pain management.

Observation on the Curative Effect of Different Anti-infective Treatment Regimens for Children with Acute Appendicitis.

Objective: To observe the efficacy of different anti-infective treatment regimens on acute appendicitis in children, a retrospective study was conducted by collecting previous cases. Methods: Ninety children with acute appendicitis who received laparoscopic appendectomy from May 2020 to September 2022 were included in this retrospective study. According to the different anti-infective treatment regimens, they were divided into Piperacillin-Tazobactam group, Piperacillin-Tazobactam+Metronidazole group, and Cefminox+Metronidazole group (n=30). Three groups of children received medication treatment before surgery. The postoperative recovery, treatment effect, bacterial clearance, complication rate, pharmacoeconomic evaluation, and adverse reactions were compared. Results: The effective rates in the three groups were 83.33%, 90.00%, and 90.00%, respectively (P > .05). There were no differences in the bacterial clearance, complication incidence, and incidence of pharmaceutical side effects among the three groups (P > .05). The total hospitalization cost, total drug cost, and antimicrobial drug cost in Cefminox + Metronidazole group were lower than those in Piperacillin-Tazobactam group and Piperacillin-Tazobactam + Metronidazole group, respectively (P < .05). The intensity of antibacterial drug use in Piperacillin-Tazobactam group was the lowest, followed by Piperacillin-Tazobactam + Metronidazole group and Cefminox + Metronidazole group (P < .05). Conclusion: The three anti-infective regimens have the same therapeutic effect on acute appendicitis in children. However, the regimen of Cefminox + Metronidazole is the most economical option and can be used as the preferred treatment for acute appendicitis in children. As the preferred treatment for acute appendicitis in children. The Piperacillin-Tazobactam group has the lowest intensity of antibiotic use and can reduce bacterial resistance.

Preparation and Performance of a Novel ZnO/TM/PET Composite Negative Ion Functional Fiber.

Using zinc oxide (ZnO), tourmaline (TM), and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) as main raw materials, a novel ZnO/TM/PET negative ion functional fiber was created. The rheological properties of a ZnO/TM/PET masterbatch were investigated; the morphology, XRD, and FT-IR of the fibers were observed; and the mechanical properties, thermal properties, and negative ion release properties of the new fiber were tested. The results showed that the average particle size of the ZnO/TM composite is nearly 365 nm, with an increase in negative ion emission efficiency by nearly 50% compared to the original TM. The apparent viscosity of fiber masterbatch decreases with the increase in the addition of the ZnO/TM composite, and the rheological properties of the PET fiber masterbatch are not significantly effected, still showing shear thinning characteristics when the amount of addition reaches 10%. The ZnO/TM composite disperses well in the interior and surface of the ZnO/TM/PET fiber matrix. The prepared ZnO/TM/PET fiber has excellent properties, such as fineness of 1.54 dtex, glass transition temperature of 122.4 °C, fracture strength of 3.31 cN/dtex, and negative ion release of 1640/cm3, which shows great industrialization potential.

Energy Absorption Characteristics of Composite Material with Fiber-Foam Metal Sandwich Structure Subjected to Gas Explosion.

Based on the previous research on the energy absorption of foam metal materials with different structures, a composite blast-resistant energy-absorbing material with a flexible core layer was designed. The material is composed of three different fiber materials (carbon fiber, aramid fiber, and glass fiber) as the core layer and foamed iron-nickel metal as the front and rear panels. The energy absorption characteristics were tested using a self-built gas explosion tube network experimental platform, and the energy absorption effects of different combinations of blast-resistant materials were analyzed. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of blast-resistant materials designed with flexible fiber core layers. The experimental results show that the composite structure blast-resistant material with a flexible core layer has higher energy absorption performance. The work performed in this paper shows that the use of flexible core layer materials has great research potential and engineering research value for improving energy absorption performance, reducing the mass of blast-resistant materials, and reducing production costs. It also provides thoughts for the research of biomimetic energy-absorbing materials.

Measurement of liquid viscosity using quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) based on GA-BP neural network.

Sensor technology plays a pivotal role in various aspects of the petroleum industry. The conventional quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) liquid-phase detection method fails to discern the viscosity and density of solutions separately, rendering it incapable of characterizing the properties of unknown liquid solutions. This presents a formidable challenge to the application of QCM in the petroleum industry. In this study, we aim to assess the feasibility of exclusively utilizing a single QCM sensor for liquid viscosity measurements. Validation experiments were conducted, emphasizing the influence of temperature and solution concentration on the viscosity measurement results. The results indicate that the QCM liquid viscosity response model can achieve viscosity measurements in the temperature range of 20 to 60 °C and concentration range of 10%-95% glycerol solution using a single QCM, with a maximum error of 7.32%. Simultaneously, with the objective of enhancing the model's measurement precision, as an initial investigation, we employed a backpropagation neural network combined with genetic algorithm (to optimize the measurement data. The results demonstrate a substantial improvement in the measurement accuracy of the QCM sensor, with a root mean square error of 3.89 and an absolute error of 3.07% in predicting viscosity values. The purpose of this research was to extend neural networks into the evaluation system of QCM sensors for assessing the viscosity properties of liquid in the oil industry, providing insights into the application of QCM sensors in the petroleum industry for viscosity measurement and improving measurement accuracy.

Comparisons of long-term clinical outcomes with left bundle branch pacing, left ventricular septal pacing, and biventricular pacing for cardiac resynchronization therapy.

BACKGROUND: Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) and left ventricular septal pacing (LVSP) are referred to as left bundle branch area pacing. OBJECTIVE: This study investigated whether long-term clinical outcomes differ in patients undergoing LBBP, LVSP, and biventricular pacing (BiVP) for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). METHODS: Consecutive patients with reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF <50%) undergoing CRT were prospectively enrolled if they underwent successful LBBP, LVSP, or BiVP. The primary composite end point was all-cause mortality or heart failure hospitalization. Secondary end points included all-cause mortality, heart failure hospitalization, and echocardiographic measures of reverse remodeling. RESULTS: A total of 259 patients (68 LBBP, 38 LVSP, and 153 BiVP) were observed for a mean duration of 28.8 ± 15.8 months. LBBP was associated with a significantly reduced risk of the primary end point by 78% compared with both BiVP (7.4% vs 41.2%; adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 0.22 [0.08-0.57]; P = .002) and LVSP (7.4% vs 47.4%; aHR, 0.22 [0.08-0.63]; P = .004]. The adjusted risk of all-cause mortality was significantly higher in LVSP than in BiVP (31.6% vs 7.2%; aHR, 3.19 [1.38-7.39]; P = .007) but comparable between LBBP and BiVP (2.9% vs 7.2%; aHR, 0.33 [0.07-1.52], P = .155). Propensity score adjustment also obtained similar results. LBBP showed a higher rate of echocardiographic response (ΔLVEF ≥10%: 60.0% vs 36.2% vs 16.1%; P < .001) than BiVP or LVSP. CONCLUSION: LBBP yielded long-term clinical outcomes superior to those of BiVP and LVSP. The role of LVSP for CRT needs to be reevaluated because of its high mortality risk.

[IL-1ß inhibits macrophage M2 polarization by down-regulating CD200 expression in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells].

Objective To investigate the regulation of IL-1ß on the expression of CD200 in human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs), its role in macrophage polarization and the underlying mechanism. Methods hUC-MSCs were isolated and cultured in serum-free medium. Morphological observation and the expressions of CD73, CD90, CD105, CD14, CD34, CD45 and HLA-DR were detected by flow cytometry to confirm the properties of mesenchymal stem cells. hUC-MSCs were treated with IL-1ß at the final concentration of 20 ng/mL for 24 hours. The proportion of CD200 positive cells was measured by flow cytometry. Real-time quantitative PCR and Western blot analysis were used to detect CD200 mRNA and protein expression levels. hUC-MSCs infected with CD200 overexpression (OE-CD200) and its negative control (OE-NC) lectin virus were treated with IL-1ß and co-cultured with PMA-activated THP-1 macrophages. The proportion of CD11c and CD206 positive cells was measured by flow cytometry. hUC-MSCs were treated with IL-1ß in combination with PD98059, and the expression of MAPK signaling pathway-related proteins and its effect on CD200 expression were detected by Western blot analysis. Results IL-1ß significantly down-regulated the expression of CD200 protein and the proportion of CD200 positive cells. Overexpression of CD200 significantly up-regulated the expression of CD200 in hUC-MSCs, and increased the proportion of CD206-positive macrophages. IL-1ß activated the ERK1/2 signaling pathway in hUC-MSCs, and PD98059 up-regulated the expression of CD200 protein in hUC-MSCs treated with IL-1ß. Conclusion IL-1ß inhibits the expression of CD200 by activating ERK1/2 signaling pathway, and reduces the immunosuppressive effect of hUC-MSCs on regulating the M2-type polarization of macrophages.

Celastrol Ameliorates Neuronal Mitochondrial Dysfunction Induced by Intracerebral Hemorrhage via Targeting cAMP-Activated Exchange Protein-1.

Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the development of secondary brain injury (SBI) following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and represents a promising therapeutic target. Celastrol, the primary active component of Tripterygium wilfordii, is a natural product that exhibits mitochondrial and neuronal protection in various cell types. This study aims to investigate the neuroprotective effects of celastrol against ICH-induced SBI and explore its underlying mechanisms. Celastrol improves neurobehavioral and cognitive abilities in mice with autologous blood-induced ICH, reduces neuronal death in vivo and in vitro, and promotes mitochondrial function recovery in neurons. Single-cell nuclear sequencing reveals that the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/cAMP-activated exchange protein-1 (EPAC-1) signaling pathways are impacted by celastrol. Celastrol binds to cNMP (a domain of EPAC-1) to inhibit its interaction with voltage-dependent anion-selective channel protein 1 (VDAC1) and blocks the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pores. After neuron-specific knockout of EPAC1, the neuroprotective effects of celastrol are diminished. In summary, this study demonstrates that celastrol, through its interaction with EPAC-1, ameliorates mitochondrial dysfunction in neurons, thus potentially improving SBI induced by ICH. These findings suggest that targeting EPAC-1 with celastrol can be a promising therapeutic approach for treating ICH-induced SBI.

Assessing the Feasibility and Safety of the Toumai® Robotic System in Urologic Surgery: Initial Experience.

Introduction: Robotic surgery using da Vinci surgical system has gained prominence in urology; emerging robotic platforms are expanding its applications and increasing affordability. We assess the feasibility and safety of a novel system, the Toumai® robotic system in various urological surgeries. Methods: This prospective study was conducted at the first affiliated hospital of Zhengzhou university. Twenty consecutive patients underwent renal and prostatic surgery with the Toumai. The study assessed technical feasibility (conversion rate) and safety (perioperative complications) of the procedures as primary outcomes. Secondary endpoints included key surgical perioperative outcomes: functional and oncologic results. The Endoscopic Surgical System operates within a master-slave protocol, comprising a Surgeon Console, Patient Platform, and Vision Platform. Results: Seventeen patients underwent various nephrectomy procedures and three underwent radical prostatectomy (RP). There was no conversion to alternative surgical approach; a single (Clavien-Dindo grade ≥3b) complication occurred, and no readmission was recorded within 30 days. The median operative time was 120, 140, and 210 minutes for partial nephrectomy (PN), radical nephrectomy, and RP, respectively. Off-clamp PN was performed in one case, and the warm ischemia time in the remaining two case was 18 minutes. The median docking time was 22 minutes for nephrectomy and 20 minutes for RP; no major robotic malfunction was encountered. At 3-month follow-up, no tumor recurrence was recorded, renal function was well preserved, and the continence status was satisfactory. Conclusions: We present the initial clinical utilization of an innovative robotic platform. Complex urological surgeries were successfully completed without conversions and with minimal complications. Further investigations are warranted to confirm these initial findings.

Radar nonlinear multi-target tracking method with parallel PHD filter.

Since probability hypothesis density (PHD) filters do not need explicit data association, they have recently been widely used in radar multi-target tracking (MTT). However, in existing PHD filters, sampling times are generally considered the same for all targets. Due to the limitation of antenna beam width in radar applications, the same sampling time for all targets will lead to a mismatch between the predicted data and measurement data, reducing the accuracy of radar MTT. In order to eliminate the estimation error with less computational cost, a radar nonlinear multi-target tracking method with a parallel PHD filter is proposed in this article. The measurement area is divided into several subspaces according to the beam width of the radar antenna, and the PHD of all subspaces is calculated in parallel. Then, multi-feature information in radar echo assists tracking and improves real-time performance. Experimental results in various scenarios illustrate that the proposed method can eliminate the estimation errors introduced by sampling time diversity at the cost of less computation cost, especially in cluttered environments.

Comparison of clinical outcomes between transthoracic echocardiography- and X-ray-guided left bundle branch pacing for bradycardia: A randomized controlled trial.

INTRODUCTION: Left bundle branch pacing (LBBP) is a physiological pacing modality. However, the long procedure and fluoroscopy time of LBBP is still a problem. This study aims to compare the clinical outcomes between transthoracic echocardiography (TTE)- and X-ray-guided LBBP. METHODS: This is a single-center, prospective, randomized controlled study. Consecutive patients who underwent LBBP in our team from June 2022 to November 2022 were enrolled. Procedure and fluoroscopy time, pacing parameters, electrophysiological and echocardiographic characteristics, as well as complications were recorded at implantation and during follow-up. RESULTS: In this study, 60 patients were enrolled and divided into two groups: 30 patients were allocated to the X-ray group and the remaining 30 to the TTE group. There was no significant difference in the success rate between the two groups (86.7% vs. 76.7%, p = .317). The procedure time of TTE group was comparable to that of the X-ray group (9.0 vs. 12.0 min, p = .063). However, the fluoroscopy time in the TTE group was significantly lower than that of the X-ray group (2.5 vs. 5.0 min, p = .002). There were no statistically significant differences in pacing parameters, electrophysiological and echocardiographic characteristics, or complications between the two groups at implantation and during follow-up. CONCLUSION: TTE-guided LBBP is a feasible and safe method. Compared with X-ray, TTE showed a comparable success rate and procedure time, but it could significantly reduce the fluoroscopy time of LBBP.

Hyperbranched Polymer Induced Antibacterial Tree-Like Nanofibrous Membrane for High Effective Air Filtration.

The air filtration materials with high efficiency, low resistance, and extra antibacterial property are crucial for personal health protection. Herein, a tree-like polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) nanofibrous membrane with hierarchical structure (trunk fiber of 447 nm, branched fiber of 24.7 nm) and high filtration capacity is demonstrated. Specifically, 2-hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride terminated hyperbranched polymer (HBP-HTC) with near-spherical three-dimensional molecular structure and adjustable terminal positive groups is synthesized as an additive for PVDF electrospinning to enhance the jet splitting and promote the formation of branched ultrafine nanofibers, achieving a coverage rate of branched nanofibers over 90% that is superior than small molecular quaternary ammonium salts. The branched nanofibers network enhances mechanical properties and filtration efficiency (99.995% for 0.26 µm sodium chloride particles) of the PVDF/HBP-HTC membrane, which demonstrates reduced pressure drop (122.4 Pa) and a quality factor up to 0.083 Pa-1 on a 40 µm-thick sample. More importantly, the numerous quaternary ammonium salt groups of HBP-HTC deliver excellent antibacterial properties to the PVDF membranes. Bacterial inhibitive rate of 99.9% against both S. aureus and E. coli is demonstrated in a membrane with 3.0 wt% HBP-HTC. This work provides a new strategy for development of high-efficiency and antibacterial protection products.

Suitability of the MP1000 system for robot-assisted partial nephrectomy: a multicenter randomized controlled noninferiority trial.

PURPOSE: This study aimed to compare the safety and effectiveness of the MP1000 surgical system with the da Vinci Si robot system in robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) through a prospective, single-blinded, randomized controlled trial. MATERIALS AND METHODS: A total of 62 patients who were scheduled to undergo RAPN were randomly assigned to either the da Vinci Si robot or MP1000 group. A noninferiority test was conducted with a noninferior intermediate value of 10%. The study compared installation and operation times, estimated blood loss, warm ischemia time, postoperative surgical margin, rate of conversion to open surgery, eGFR level, complications, and other safety indicators between the two groups. RESULTS: All procedures were successfully completed without the need for conversion to open or laparoscopic surgery, and no major complications were observed during the process. The test of noninferiority was achieved. There were no significant differences in median installation time, operation time, complication rate at 3 months, rate of positive surgical margin, and eGFR level at 3 months between the groups. Additionally, no evidence of recurrence was found on imaging in both groups. No difference in National Aeronautics and Space Administration task load index results for ergonomic considerations. A limitation of this study was its small sample size. CONCLUSIONS: The MP1000 system is a suitable platform for RAPN with safety and effectiveness compared with da Vinci Si system.

Enhanced High-Fructose Corn Syrup Production: Immobilizing Serratia marcescens Glucose Isomerase on MOF (Co)-525 Reduces Co2+ Dependency in Glucose Isomerization to Fructose.

The escalating demand for processed foods has led to the widespread industrial use of glucose isomerase (GI) for high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) production. This reliance on GIs necessitates continual Co2+ supplementation to sustain high catalytic activity across multiple reaction cycles. In this study, Serratia marcescens GI (SmGI) was immobilized onto surfaces of the metal-organic framework (MOF) material MOF (Co)-525 to generate MOF (Co)-525-GI for use in catalyzing glucose isomerization to generate fructose. Examination of MOF (Co)-525-GI structural features using scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and ultraviolet spectroscopy revealed no structural changes after SmGI immobilization and the addition of Co2+. Notably, MOF (Co)-525-GI exhibited optimal catalytic activity at pH 7.5 and 70 °C, with a maximum reaction rate (Vmax) of 37.24 ± 1.91 µM/min and Km value of 46.25 ± 3.03 mM observed. Remarkably, immobilized SmGI exhibited sustained high catalytic activity over multiple cycles without continuous Co2+ infusion, retaining its molecular structure and 96.38% of its initial activity after six reaction cycles. These results underscore the potential of MOF (Co)-525-GI to serve as a safer and more efficient immobilized enzyme technology compared to traditional GI-based food-processing technologies.
