Regio- and stereoselective access to highly substituted vinylphosphine oxides via metal-free electrophilic phosphonoiodination of alkynes.

In general, the P-centered ring-opening of quaternary phosphirenium salts (QPrS) predominantly leads to hydrophosphorylated products, while the C-centered ring-opening is primarily confined to intramolecular nucleophilic reactions, resulting in the formation of phosphorus-containing cyclization products instead of difunctionalized products generated through intermolecular nucleophilic processes. Here, through the promotion of ring-opening of three-member rings by iodine anions and the quenching of electronegative carbon atoms by iodine cations, we successfully synthesize ß-functionalized vinylphosphine oxides by the P-addition of QPrS intermediates generated in situ. Multiple ß-iodo-substituted vinylphosphine oxides can be obtained with exceptional regio- and stereo-selectivity by reacting secondary phosphine oxides with unactivated alkynes. In addition, a variety of ß-functionalized vinylphosphine oxides converted from C-I bonds, especially the rapid construction of benzo[b]phospholes oxides, demonstrates the significance of this strategy.

ErZhiTianGui Decoction alleviates age-related ovarian aging by regulating mitochondrial homeostasis and inhibiting ferroptosis.

AIM: This study was designed to investigate the pharmacological effects and mechanisms of ErZhiTianGui Decoction (EZTG) for age-related ovarian aging in mice. METHODS: This study used naturally aging mice as a model, and EZTG was used for intragastric administration. Ovarian pathological changes, as well as follicular reserve were assessed by hematoxylin and eosin staining, and serum hormone levels (anti-mullerian hormone, follicle-stimulating hormone), mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) damage marker 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine(8-OHdG), and lipid peroxidation markers glutathione(GSH) and malondialdehyde(MDA) were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) levels in ovaries were determined using flow cytometry. The levels of PINK1 and Parkin were observed using immunofluorescence staining. Mitochondrial-derived vesicles (MDVs) and mitochondrial morphology were observed using electron microscopy. Prussian blue staining was used to observe iron ion aggregation in ovarian tissue. The Iron assay kits detected total iron levels. Western blot was used to detect the expression of proteins related to mitochondrial and ferroptosis related genes. RESULTS: After EZTG treatment, aged mice showed increased ovarian reserve, improved serum hormone levels, increased MMP, GSH levels, and decreased mitochondrial ROS, 8-OHdG, and MDA levels. Immunofluorescence staining showed decreased levels of PINK1 and Parkin, and the same trend was observed for the Western blot. Meanwhile, electron microscopy showed that EZTG improved the mitochondrial morphology in the ovaries of aged mice. EZTG also decreased the total iron and protein levels of Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family4 (ACSL4) and increased the protein level of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) in the ovaries of aged mice. CONCLUSIONS: EZTG can maintain PINK1/Parkin-mediated mitochondrial homeostasis, reduce the lipid peroxidation caused by the accumulation of ROS, and inhibit the occurrence of ferroptosis and delaying ovarian aging. These findings suggest that EZTG may be a promising drug for treating age-related ovarian aging in females.

Combining pathological risk factors and T, N staging to optimize the assessment for risk stratification and prognostication in low-risk stage III colon cancer.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the combined pathological risk factors (PRFs) to stratify low-risk (pT1-3N1) stage III colon cancer (CC), providing a basis for individualized treatment in the future. PATIENTS AND METHODS: PRFs for low-risk stage III CC were identified using COX model. Low-risk stage III CC was risk-grouped combining with PRFs, and survival analysis were performed using Kaplan-Meier. The Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) databases was used for external validation. RESULTS: Nine hundred sixty-two stage III CC patients were included with 634 (65.9%) as low risk and 328 (34.1%) as high risk. Poor differentiation (OS: P = 0.048; DFS: P = 0.011), perineural invasion (OS: P = 0.003; DFS: P < 0.001) and tumor deposits (OS: P = 0.012; DFS: P = 0.003) were identified as PRFs. The prognosis of low-risk CC combined with 2 PRFs (OS: HR = 3.871, 95%CI, 2.004-7.479, P < 0.001; DFS: HR = 3.479, 95%CI, 2.158-5.610, P < 0.001) or 3 PRFs (OS: HR = 5.915, 95%CI, 1.953-17.420, P = 0.002; DFS: HR = 5.915, 95%CI, 2.623-13.335, P < 0.001) was similar to that of high-risk CC (OS: HR = 3.927, 95%CI, 2.317-6.656, P < 0.001; DFS: HR = 4.132, 95%CI, 2.858-5.974, P < 0.001). In the SEER database, 18,547 CC patients were enrolled with 10,023 (54.0%) as low risk and 8524 (46.0%) as high risk. Low-risk CC combined with 2 PRFs (OS: HR = 1.857, 95%CI, 1.613-2.139, P < 0.001) was similar to that of high-risk CC without PRFs (HR = 1.876, 95%CI, 1.731-2.033, P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: Combined PRFs improved the risk stratification of low-risk stage III CC, which could reduce the incidence of undertreatment and guide adjuvant chemotherapy.

Which patients with coronary artery disease should include oral nitrates on their discharge medication list?

BACKGROUND: Which patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) should have oral nitrates on their discharge medication list after coronary angiography (CAG)? To assess the relationship between oral nitrates included in the discharge medication list and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACEs) among CAD patients, we designed this retrospective cohort study. METHODS: A total of 2979 CAD patients hospitalised in the Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Jining Medical University from May 2013 to October 2015 were enrolled, grouped according to whether oral nitrates were included at discharge after CAG, and followed up for MACEs for a mean of 4.42 years after discharge. The primary endpoint was MACEs. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards models were used to analyses potential confounding factors. Stratified analysis was used to observe the relationship between oral nitrates and MACEs by different covariates. RESULTS: The median follow-up time was 4.61 years, and 296 (9.94%) patients experienced MACEs. Multivariate Cox proportional hazards model analysis showed no association between oral nitrates on the discharge medication list and the occurrence of MACEs among patients with CAD (p > 0.05) after adjusting for some covariates, such as SYNTAX score (hazard ratio (HR): 1.18, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.90-1.55, p = 0.2420). Stratified analysis revealed a higher incidence of MACEs among hypertensive patients prescribed oral nitrates at discharge (HR: 1.67, 95% confidence CI: 1.13-2.46, p = 0.0046). However, prescribing nitrates at discharge for patients with low uric acid levels increased the incidence of MACEs, which showed a possible trend towards significance (HR: 1.44, 95% CI: 0.99-2.09, p = 0.0525). CONCLUSION: There was no association between oral nitrates included in the discharge medication list and the development of MACEs among patients with CAD after adjusting for some covariates, such as SYNTAX score. Oral nitrates after discharge for CAD patients combined with hypertension increased the occurrence of MACEs. Oral nitrates after discharge for CAD patients combined with low uric acid levels may increase theoccurrence of MACEs, and close monitoring for any adverse events is recommended.

Association of age-related hearing loss with cognitive impairment and dementia: an umbrella review.

Background: Hearing loss, cognitive impairment and dementia have become common problems for older adults. Currently, systematic reviews and meta-analyses of the association between age-related hearing loss (ARHL) with cognitive impairment and dementia may have inconsistent results. To explore and validate the association between ARHL with cognitive impairment and dementia through summarizing and evaluating existing evidence. Methods: From inception to February 01, 2023, PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched. AMSTAR 2 was used to evaluate methodological quality and GRADE system was used to evaluate evidence quality. We summarized the basic characteristics of the included studies and extracted effect data for ARHL with cognitive impairment and dementia. Forest plots were used to describe the relative risk associated with ARHL and cognitive impairment, and the relative risk associated with ARHL and dementia, respectively. Results: A total of 11 systematic reviews and meta-analyses met the inclusion criteria. Overall, the methodological quality of the included SRs/MAs was moderate and the quality of the evidence was low. The combined results found that the pooled risk ratio of ARHL and cognitive impairment was 1.30 (random-effects; 95% CI 1.16 to 1.45), and the pooled risk ratio of ARHL and dementia was 1.59 (random-effects; 95% CI 1.34 to 1.90). Conclusion: Based on the evidence reported in this umbrella review, age-related hearing loss is significantly associated with cognitive impairment and dementia. Hearing loss may be a high risk factor for cognitive impairment and dementia in older adults.

Effects of Friction Stir Welding on the Mechanical Behaviors of Extrusion-Based Additive Manufactured Polymer Parts.

The friction stir welding (FSW) of thermoplastic polymers is gradually receiving attention because of its advantages including high efficiency and pollution-free manufacturing. The extrusion-based additive manufacturing (EAM) of polymers has also become one of the main processing methods for thermoplastic parts. In this paper, a hybrid manufacturing method for the FSW process and EAM technology is proposed and explored. The effects of the FSW process using two different welding tools on the mechanical behaviors of 3D printing polymer parts were compared and investigated and the corresponding mechanism was analyzed. The results show that the appropriate welding tool is beneficial for eliminating the anisotropy and decreasing the porosity of 3D-printed parts. Therefore, the improving effects of the FSW process on the mechanical behaviors of the EAM parts are verified. The mechanism was attributed to the high-speed rotation of the welding tool with the appropriate shape, which can promote the flow of polymer melt in the welding region, leading to the formation of dense structures caused by the entanglement of the molecular chains. This study may provide some assistance in modern industrial manufacturing for the processing of large custom components.

De novo mutation of NAXE (APOAIBP)-related early-onset progressive encephalopathy with brain edema and/or leukoencephalopathy-1: A case report.

BACKGROUND: Early-onset progressive encephalopathy with brain edema and/or leukoencephalopathy-1 (PEBEL1) is a rare autosomal recessive severe neurometabolic disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the clinical characteristics and genetic pathogenicity of PEBEL1 caused by rare NAXE (or APOA1BP)-related defects. CASE SUMMARY: The patient was a girl aged 2 years and 10 mo. She was hospitalized due to walking disorder for > 40 d. The clinical manifestations were ataxia, motor function regression, hypotonia, and eyelid ptosis. Within 1 mo of hospitalization, she developed sigh breathing, respiratory failure, cerebellar edema and brain hernia, and finally she died. Changes were found in cranial imaging, including cerebellar edema accompanied by symmetrical myelopathy. Through whole exome sequencing, we detected NAXE compound heterozygous variation (NM 144772.3) c.733A>C (p. Lys245Gln, dbSNP: rs770023429) and novel variation c.370G>T (p.Gly124Cys) in the germline gene. The clinical features and core phenotypes of this case were consistent with 18 previously reported cases of PEBEL1. CONCLUSION: This is the first case of NAXE-related PEBEL1 with severe clinical phenotype in Mainland China. The p.Gly124Cys mutation discovered in this case has enriched the pathogenic variation spectrum of NAXE.

Novel Sulfonamide Derivatives Containing a Piperidine Moiety as New Bactericide Leads for Managing Plant Bacterial Diseases.

Plant bacterial diseases are an intractable problem due to the fact that phytopathogens have acquired strong resistances for traditional pesticides, resulting in restricting the quality and yield of agricultural products around the world. To develop new agrochemical alternatives, we prepared a novel series of sulfanilamide derivatives containing piperidine fragments and assessed their antibacterial potency. The bioassay results revealed that most molecules displayed excellent in vitro antibacterial potency towards Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo) and Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. citri (Xac). In particular, molecule C4 exhibited outstanding inhibitory activity toward Xoo with EC50 value of 2.02 µg mL-1, which was significantly better than those of the commercial agents bismerthiazol (EC50 = 42.38 µg mL-1) and thiodiazole copper (EC50 = 64.50 µg mL-1). A series of biochemical assays confirmed that compound C4 interacted with dihydropteroate synthase, and irreversibly damaged the cell membrane. In vivo assays showed that the molecule C4 presented acceptable curative and protection activities of 34.78% and 39.83%, respectively, at 200 µg mL-1, which were greater than those of thiodiazole and bismerthiazol. This study highlights the valuable insights for the excavation and development of new bactericides that can concurrently target dihydropteroate synthase and bacterial cell membranes.

Construction of a predictive model for cognitive impairment risk in patients with advanced cancer.

AIMS: The purpose of this study was to identify risk factors for cognitive impairment in advanced cancer patients and to develop predictive models based on these risk factors. BACKGROUND: Cancer-related cognitive impairment seriously affects the quality of life of advanced cancer patients. However, neural network models of cognitive impairment in patients with advanced cancer have not yet been identified. DESIGN: A cross-sectional design was used. METHODS: This study collected 494 questionnaires between January and June 2022. Statistically significant clinical indicators were selected by univariate analysis, and the artificial neural network model and logistic regression model were used for multivariate analysis. The predicted value of the model was estimated using the area under the subject's working characteristic curve. RESULT: The artificial neural network and the logistic regression models suggested that cancer course, anxiety and age were the major risk factors for cognitive impairment in advanced cancer patients. All the indexes of artificial neural network model constructed in this study are better than those of the logistic model. CONCLUSION: The artificial neural network model can better predict the risk factors of cognitive impairment in patients with advanced cancer. Better prediction will enable nurses and other healthcare professionals to provide better targeted and timely support.

Anticancer Effect of Chlorambucil Enhanced by Chiral Phthalidyl Promoiety.

Phthalidyl promoiety has been used in several drugs, but they were all marketed in racemic form. The pharmaceutical effects of each enantiomer have not been clearly demonstrated. In this project, an anticancer chemotherapy drug, chlorambucil, was modified as enantiopure phthalidyl prodrugs. The enantiomers, together with phthalidyl unit and their racemic mixture, were then subject to the in vivo bioactivity tests against B16F10 melanoma cells. It was found that proper chirality within the promoiety had noticeably better in vivo pharmacological effects than the parent drug, the enantiomer and racemic mixture. This merit perhaps could be extended from the phthalidyl prodrugs to other chirality containing prodrugs.

Rigid P-Chiral Phosphorus Ligands for Highly Selective Palladium-Catalyzed (4+2) and (4+4) Annulations.

We developed novel shackled P-chiral ligands based on 1-phosphanorbornenes and oxazolines. They were subsequently evaluated in palladium-catalyzed (4+2) annulations, producing enantioenriched tetrahydropyran scaffolds in good yields with high site selectivity and enantioselectivity. Moreover, chemoselective (4+4) products were also achieved by using acyclic imines. In addition, density functional theory calculations were performed to afford the energy profile of the Michael addition step and ring formation step. This demonstrated that the enantioselective (4+2) annulations and the chemoselective reaction between (4+2) and (4+4) products were mostly under thermodynamic control.

Preparation and Characterization of Site-Specific Fatty Chain-Modified Recombinant Human Granulocyte Colony Stimulating Factor.

The clinical use of recombinant human granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (rhG-CSF) is limited by its short serum half-life. In this study, a long-acting strategy for site-specific modification of rhG-CSF with 1-pentadecyl-1H-pyrrole-2,5-dione (C15 fatty chain-maleimide, C15-MAL) was studied in mixed DMSO-aqueous solutions. The factors influencing the conjugation reaction were investigated and optimized, and a high yield of the desired product (C15-rhG-CSF) was achieved. Subsequently, C15-rhG-CSF product was efficiently purified using preparative liquid chromatography, and further characterized. Circular dichroism spectroscopy analysis showed that the secondary structure of C15-rhG-CSF had no significant difference from unmodified rhG-CSF. C15-rhG-CSF retained 87.2% of in vitro bioactivity of unmodified rhG-CSF. The pharmacokinetic study showed that the serum half-life of C15-rhG-CSF in mice was 2.08-fold longer than that of unmodified rhG-CSF. Furthermore, C15-rhG-CSF by single-dose subcutaneous administration showed better in vivo efficacy than those of both PEG10k-rhG-CSF by single-dose administration and rhG-CSF by multiple doses administration. This study demonstrated the potential of C15-rhG-CSF being developed into a novel drug candidate as well as an efficient process for the development of long-acting protein and peptide drugs.

Effective Suppression of MIS Interface Defects Using Boron Nitride toward High-Performance Ta-Doped-ß-Ga2O3 MISFETs.

ß-Ga2O3 is considered an attractive candidate for next-generation high-power electronics due to its large band gap of 4.9 eV and high breakdown electrical field of 8 MV/cm. However, the relatively low carrier concentration and low electron mobility in the ß-Ga2O3-based device limit its application. Herein, the high-quality ß-Ga2O3 single crystal with high doping concentration of ∼3.2 × 1019 cm-3 was realized using an optical float-zone method through Ta doping. In contrast to the SiO2/ß-Ga2O3 gate stack structure, we used hexagonal boron nitride as the gate insulator, which is sufficient to suppress the metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) interface defects of the ß-Ga2O3-based MIS field-effect transistors (FETs), exhibiting outstanding performances with a low specific on-resistance of ∼6.3 mΩ·cm2, a high current on/off ratio of ∼108, and a high mobility of ∼91.0 cm2/(V s). Our findings offer a unique perspective to fabricate high-performance ß-Ga2O3 FETs for next-generation high-power nanoelectronic applications.

Metabolomic mechanism and pharmacodynamic material basis of Buxue Yimu pills in the treatment of anaemia in women of reproductive age.

Objective: To explore the pharmacological basis and mechanism of Buxue Yimu pills (BYP) in the treatment of anaemia in women from the perspective of metabolomics and network analysis. Materials and Methods: Forty-six women of reproductive age with haemoglobin 70-110 g/L were recruited. Blood samples were collected before and after 4 weeks of oral BYP treatment to assess the changes in haemoglobin, coagulation function, and iron metabolism indices. An integrated analysis of metabolomics (liquid chromatography mass spectrometry) and network analysis was performed to identify the potential pharmacodynamic mechanisms of BYP. Results: After BYP treatment, the haemoglobin level of patients significantly increased from 93.67 ± 9.77 g/L to 109.28 ± 12.62 g/L (p < 0.01), while no significant changes were found in iron metabolism and coagulation-related indicators. A total of 22 differential metabolites were identified after metabolomics analysis, which were mainly related to the inhibition of inflammation and oxidative stress. Integrating pharmacodynamics and metabolomics, a network of drug-active components-targets-metabolic pathways-metabolomics was established. Acetylcholinesterase, phospholipase A2 group IIA, and phospholipase A2 group IVA may be the most promising therapeutic targets. Conclusion: BYP can inhibit inflammation and oxidative stress as well as promote haematopoiesis, potentially improving anaemia.

Study of the fibrinolytic activity of serrapeptase and its in vitro thrombolytic effects

Abstract Serrapeptase, a proteolytic enzyme, has been used for the adjuvant treatment of many diseases. However, its fibrinolytic activity is still uncertain. Herein, the fibrinolytic activity of serrapeptase and its in vitro thrombolytic effects were investigated. The results showed that the fibrinolytic activity of serrapeptase was 1295 U/mg, and the specific activity was 3867 U/mg of protein when its proteolytic activity toward casein was 2800 U/mg. The optimum temperature and pH for serrapeptase activity were 37-40°C and 9.0, respectively. At 1 mmol/L, Zn2+, Mn2+ and Fe2+ could activate the fibrinolytic activity of serrapeptase, while K+, Cu2+, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) and ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) inhibited it. In vitro tests showed that serrapeptase could completely prevent blood coagulation at 150 U/mL, and the percentage of blood clot lysis reached 96.6% at 37°C after 4 h at 300 U/mL. These results indicate that serrapeptase has excellent fibrinolytic activity, and can be used as a health food or candidate drug for the prevention or treatment of thrombotic diseases.

Metal Free Access to Polysubstituted Pyrimidines via Nitrile Activation and [2+2+2] Cycloaddition.

Tf2 O mediated intermolecular / intramolecular [2+2+2] cycloaddition between alkynes and nitriles has been developed for efficient construction of polysubstituted pyrimidines and bicyclopyrimidines. In presence of Tf2 O, aza-allene species were generated in situ through nitrile activation and subsequently participated in the [2+2+2] cycloaddition, which was fully supported by deuteration experiments. The reaction had good substrate extensibility with moderate to excellent yield including trimethylsilylalkynes. The method was utilized as a synthetic tool in the preparation of a luminescent metal complex.

Simultaneous solid-liquid separation and primary purification of clavulanic acid from fermentation broth of Streptomyces clavuligerus using salting-out extraction system.

Clavulanic acid (CA) is usually used together with other ß-lactam antibiotics as combination drugs to inhibit bacterial ß-lactamases, which is mainly produced from the fermentation of microorganism such as Streptomyces clavuligerus. Recently, it is still a challenge for downstream processing of low concentration and unstable CA from fermentation broth with high solid content, high viscosity, and small cell size. In this study, an integrated process was developed for simultaneous solid-liquid separation and primary purification of CA from real fermentation broth of S. clavuligerus using salting-out extraction system (SOES). First, different SOESs were investigated, and a suitable SOES composed of ethanol/phosphate was chosen and further optimized using the pretreated fermentation broth. Then, the optimal system composed of 20% ethanol/15% K2HPO4 and 10% KH2PO4 w/w was used to direct separation of CA from untreated fermentation broth. The result showed that the partition coefficient (K) and recovery yield (Y) of CA from untreated fermentation broth were 29.13 and 96.8%, respectively. Simultaneously, the removal rates of the cells and proteins were 99.8% and 63.3%, respectively. Compared with the traditional method of membrane filtration or liquid-liquid extraction system, this developed SOES showed the advantages of simple operation, shorter operation time, lower process cost and higher recovery yield of CA. These results demonstrated that the developed SOES could be used as an attractive alternative for the downstream processing of CA from real fermentation broth.

MiR-130a-3p suppresses colorectal cancer growth by targeting Wnt Family Member 1 (WNT1).

The microRNA miR-130a-3p (miR-130a-3p) has anti-tumor activity against numerous cancer types. Further, miR-130a-3p may target Wnt signaling, which is a critical pathway regulating tumorigenesis. Functions of miR-130a-3p in colorectal cancer (CRC) and contributions of Wnt1 pathway modulation, however, have not been examined, hence the exploration on these two aspects. In this study, in comparison with normal controls, both CRC tissue and multiple CRC cell lines showed downregulated miR-130a-3p. MiR-130a-3p overexpression contributed to a decrease in CRC cell proliferation. Additionally, its overexpression also caused reduced expression of WNT Family Member 1 (WNT1) and downstream WNT pathway factors c-myc and cyclin D1. Dual-luciferase assay revealed WNT1 as a direct target of miR-130a-3p, and further the inhibitory effect of miR-130a-3p on c-myc and cyclin D1 was proved to be reversed by overexpressed WNT1. Collectively, miR-130a-3p inhibits CRC growth by directly targeting WNT1, and miR-130a-3p and WNT1 pathway-associated factors are defined as potential targets for CRC treatment.

Arginine Methyltransferase PRMT1 Regulates p53 Activity in Breast Cancer.

The protein p53 is one of the most important tumor suppressors, responding to a variety of stress signals. Mutations in p53 occur in about half of human cancer cases, and dysregulation of the p53 function by epigenetic modifiers and modifications is prevalent in a large proportion of the remainder. PRMT1 is the main enzyme responsible for the generation of asymmetric-dimethylarginine, whose upregulation or aberrant splicing has been observed in many types of malignancies. Here, we demonstrate that p53 function is regulated by PRMT1 in breast cancer cells. PRMT1 knockdown activated the p53 signal pathway and induced cell growth-arrest and senescence. PRMT1 could directly bind to p53 and inhibit the transcriptional activity of p53 in an enzymatically dependent manner, resulting in a decrease in the expression levels of several key downstream targets of the p53 pathway. We were able to detect p53 asymmetric-dimethylarginine signals in breast cancer cells and breast cancer tissues from patients, and the signals could be significantly weakened by silencing of PRMT1 with shRNA, or inhibiting PRMT1 activity with a specific inhibitor. Furthermore, PRMT1 inhibitors significantly impeded cell growth and promoted cellular senescence in breast cancer cells and primary tumor cells. These results indicate an important role of PRMT1 in the regulation of p53 function in breast tumorigenesis.

Balanced Charge Carrier Transport Mediated by Quantum Dot Film Post-organization for Light-Emitting Diode Applications.

In light-emitting diodes (LEDs), balanced electron and hole transport is of particular importance to achieve high rates of radiative recombination. Most quantum dot (QD)-based LEDs, however, employ infinitesimal core-shell QDs which inherently have different electron and hole mobilities. As QDs are the core building blocks of QD-LEDs, the inherent mobility difference in the core-shell QDs causes significantly unbalanced charge carrier transport, resulting in detrimental effects on performances of QD-LEDs. Herein, we introduce a post-chemical treatment to reconstruct the QD films through the solvent-mediated self-organization process. The treatment using various poly-alkyl alcohol groups enables QD ensembles to transform from disordered solid dispersion into an ordered superlattice and effectively modulate electron and hole mobilities, which leads to the balanced charge carrier transport. In particular, ethanol-treated QD films exhibit enhanced charge carrier lifetime and reduced hysteresis due to the balanced charge carrier transport, which is attributed to the preferential-facet-oriented QD post-organization. As a result, 63, 78, and 54% enhancements in the external quantum efficiency were observed in red, green, and blue QD-LEDs, respectively. These results are of fundamental importance to understand both solvent-mediated QD film reconstruction and the effect of balanced electron and hole transport in QD-LEDs.
