RESUMEN
Despite the unprecedented progress in lead-based perovskite solar cells (PSCs), the toxicity and leakage of lead from degraded PSCs triggered by deep-level defects and poor crystallization quality increase environmental risk and become a critical challenge for eco-friendly PSCs. Here, a novel 2D polyoxometalate (POM)-based metal-organic framework (MOF) (C5 NH5 )4 (C3 N2 H5 )2 Zn3 (H8 P4 Mo6 O31 )2 ·2H2 O (POMOF) is ingeniously devised to address these issues. Note that the integration of POM endows POMOF with great advantages of electrical conductivity and charge mobility. Ordered POMOF induces the crystallization of high-quality perovskite film and eliminates lead-based defects to improve internal stability. The resultant PSCs achieve a superior power conversion efficiency (23.3%) accompanied by improved stability that maintains ≈90% of its original efficiency after 1600 h. Meanwhile, POMOF with phosphate groups effectively prevents lead leakage through in situ chemical anchoring and adsorption methods to reduce environmental risk. This work provides an effective strategy to minimize lead-based defects and leakage in sustainable PSCs through multi-functional POM-based MOF material.
RESUMEN
The photovoltaic performance of perovskite solar cells is severely limited by the innate defects of perovskite films. Metal-organic framework (MOF)-based additives with luxuriant skeleton structures and tailored functional groups show a huge potential to solve these problems. Here, a multilateral passivation strategy is performed by introducing two alkyl-sulfonic acid functionalized MOFs, MIL-88B-1,3-SO3H and MIL-88B-1,4-SO3H, respectively, obtained from MIL-88B-NH2 through a post-synthetic process, for coordinating the lead defects and inhibiting non-radiative recombination. The flexible MIL-88B-type frameworks endow both functionalized MOFs with excellent electrical conductivity and preferable carrier transport in the hole-transport materials. Compared with the original MIL-88B-NH2 and MIL-88B-1,4-SO3H, MIL-88B-1,3-SO3H exhibits optimal steric hindrance and multiple passivation groups (-NH2, -NH-, and -SO3H), achieving the champion doped device with an enhanced power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 22.44% and excellent stability, which maintains 92.8% of the original PCE under ambient conditions (40% humidity and 25 °C) for 1200 h.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical efficacy of open debridement screw fixation combined with bone grafting, percutaneous screw fixation, and percutaneous screw fixation combined with injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for the treatment of Slade and Dodds Grade III to IV scaphoid nonunion (SNU). METHODS: This retrospective study included patients with Grade III (25 patients) and Grade IV (28 patients) SNU. They were treated with open surgery bone grafting and internal fixation (group A), percutaneous screw fixation (group B) or percutaneous screw fixation and PRP injection (group C) from January 2015 to May 2020. The fracture consolidation rate, VAS score, and Mayo wrist function score were compared across the three groups. RESULTS: The consolidation rate was not significantly different among the three groups for both Grade III and IV SNU. However, patients in group C reported significantly less pain and better wrist function 7 days after surgery compared to group A and B, for both nonunion grades. At 3 months after surgery, group C had significantly better VAS and Mayo wrist scores compared to group A for both nonunion grades, and compared to group B for Grade IV SNU. At 6 and 12 months after surgery, patients with Grade IV SNU in groups A and C had significantly better VAS and Mayo wrist scores compared to group B. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that percutaneous screw fixation with PRP injection could be a more effective method for treating Grade IV SNU. This approach may reduce postoperative wrist pain and improve wrist function in the early stages after surgery for patients with both Grade III and IV SNU. TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

T helper type 1 (T(H)1)-polarized immune responses, which confer protection against intracellular pathogens, are thought to be initiated by dendritic cells (DCs) that enter lymph nodes from peripheral tissues. Here we found after viral infection or immunization, inflammatory monocytes were recruited into lymph nodes directly from the blood to become CD11c(+)CD11b(hi)Gr-1(+) inflammatory DCs, which produced abundant interleukin 12p70 and potently stimulated T(H)1 responses. This monocyte extravasation required the chemokine receptor CCR2 but not the chemokine CCL2 or receptor CCR7. Thus, the accumulation of inflammatory DCs and T(H)1 responses were much lower in Ccr2(-/-) mice, were preserved in Ccl2(-/-) mice and were relatively higher in CCL19-CCL21-Ser-deficient plt mutant mice, in which all other lymph node DC types were fewer in number. We conclude that blood-derived inflammatory DCs are important in the development of T(H)1 immune responses.

Carbon materials with multilevel structural features are showing great potentials in electromagnetic (EM) pollution precaution. With ZIF-67 microcubes as a self-sacrificing precursor, hierarchical carbon microcubes with micro/mesoporous shells and hollow cavities have been successfully fabricated with the assistance of rigid SiO2 coating layers. It is found that the SiO2 layer can effectively counteract the inward shrinkage of organic frameworks during high-temperature pyrolysis due to intensive interfacial interaction. The obtained hollow porous carbon microcubes (HPCMCs) exhibit larger Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area and pore volume than porous carbon microcubes (PCMCs) directly derived from ZIF-67 microcubes. The unique microstructure is confirmed to be favorable for conductive loss and interfacial polarization, thus boosting the overall dielectric loss capability of carbon materials. Besides, hollow cavity will also promote multiple reflection of incident EM waves and intensify the dissipation of EM energy. As expected, HPCMCs harvest better microwave absorption performance, including strong reflection loss intensity and broad response bandwidth, than many traditional microporous/mesoporous carbon materials. This study provides a new strategy for the construction of hierarchical carbon materials and may inspire the design of carbon-based composites with excellent EM functions.
RESUMEN
Developing metal-free catalysts with high catalytic activity for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is essentially important for energy and environment-related techniques. Compared with individual element doping, doping carbon materials with multiple heteroelements has more advantages for enhancing the OER performance. However, doped sites for the different atoms are highly uncontrollable under the reported methods, which hinder the deeper understanding on the relationship between structure and property, and also limit the enhancement of catalytic activity. Our latest research has reported a method to site-controlled introducing a new form of nitrogen atoms, i.e. sp-hybridized nitrogen (sp-N), into graphdiyne, showing its potential advantages in OER catalysis. Since the sites of sp-N atoms are defined in graphdiyne, and the doping sites for S atoms are well understood, the relative position between N and S can be further defined. It gives us a chance to understand deeply the mechanism in the N, S heteroelements doped metal-free catalyst. Experimental results present that the codoping of sp-N and S atoms brought an excellent OER performance with low overpotential and high current density owning to the effectively synergistic effect of the stereodefined heteroatoms.
RESUMEN
The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) is a ligand-activated transcription factor that affects the function and development of immune cells. Here, we show that recipient mice receiving AhR-/- T cells have improved survival and decreased acute graft-versus-host disease (aGVHD) in 2 different murine allogeneic bone marrow transplant (BMT) models. We also show that CD4+ T cells lacking AhR demonstrate reduced accumulation in secondary lymphoid tissue because of low levels of proliferation 4 days after BMT. Additionally, we found a significant increase in the quantity of peripherally induced regulatory donor T (pTreg) cells in the colon of recipients transplanted with AhR-/- T cells 14 days after transplant. Blockade of AhR using a clinically available AhR antagonist greatly enhanced the in vitro generation of inducible Treg (iTreg) cells from naïve CD4+ human T cells. We have identified AhR as a novel target on donor T cells that is critical to the pathogenesis of aGVHD.

A series of novel sulfur-containing bent N-heteroacenes were constructed and characterized by NMR and UV/Vis spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. By introducing sulfur-containing groups (thio, sulfinyl, and sulfonyl) into bent azaacenes, their electronic delocalization was improved and frontier energy levels were modulated. The target products displayed tunable optical and electronic properties through altering the valence of sulfur and fused length of the azaacenes. For the first time, typical products were utilized as organic field effect transistor materials, affording promising results.
RESUMEN
A series of multiscale cementite/iron/porous carbon (CIPC-T) composites with extremely low nitrogen content and millimeter-size spherical morphology were prepared by simple carbothermal pyrolysis of resin spheres exchanged with ferric oxalate anions. CIPC-T materials are composed of highly disperse core-shell-structured Fe3 C/Fe@graphitic carbon (CI@GC) nanoparticles embedded in a porous amorphous carbon framework. A mechanism for the formation of the composites is proposed on the basis of the results of XRD, SEM, TEM, and thermogravimetric analysis. The Fe3 C content can be easily controlled just by using different carbothermal temperatures. The CIPC-T materials proved to be active as heterogeneous catalysts for oxidation of ethylbenzene to acetophenone and Fenton-like oxidation of methylene blue. For the first time, the role of Fe3 C in catalytic oxidation was confirmed. The spherical morphology of the composites and magnetic property facilitate separation of the catalyst from the reaction solution. More importantly, no leaching of iron active sites occurs during the reactions and the catalyst can be reused in continuous runs without obvious loss of activity. Such high stability of iron sites in the composites is ascribed to the protecting outer graphitic carbon shell of CI@GC.
RESUMEN
The controllable oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD and improving the stability of hole-transport materials (HTMs) layer are crucial for good performance and stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs). Herein, we report an efficient hybrid polyoxometalate@metal-organic framework (POM@MOF) material, [Cu2 (BTC)4/3 (H2 O)2 ]6 [H3 PMo12 O40 ]2 or POM@Cu-BTC, for the oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD with Li-TFSI and TBP. When POM@Cu-BTC is introduced to the HTM layer as a dopant, the PSCs achieve a superior fill factor of 0.80 and enhanced power conversion efficiency 21.44 %, as well as improved long-term stability in an ambient atmosphere without encapsulation. The enhanced performance is attributed to the oxidation activity of POM anions and solid-state nanoparticles. Therefore, this research presents a facile way by using hybrid porous materials to accelerate oxidation of spiro-OMeTAD, further improving the efficiency and stability of PSCs.
RESUMEN
A Cu/B2pin2 system promoted cyclization for the synthesis of 1-difluoroalkylated isoquinolines with vinyl isocyanides and bromodifluoroacetic derivatives in moderate to good yields was reported. This method provided a mild and efficient pathway for the construction of diverse 1-difluoroalkylated isoquinolines via a proposed tandem radical cyclization process.
RESUMEN
AIM: The aims of this study are to investigate the effects of neurotransmitters NPY and CGRP on ERK signaling in fracture healing, and to identify the correlation between macrophage aggregation and fracture healing. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to build a fracture model. The neurotransmitter receptor inhibitors were injected intraperitoneally into the rats. Immunofluorescence staining and ELISA were employed to determine the expression of NPY and CGRP in fracture area and the peripheral blood, respectively. Micro-CT together with histological staining were utilized to assess the fracture healing conditions. Relative protein expression was determined using western blot. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the aggregation of macrophages in the injury area. RESULTS: During fracture healing, the serum NPY and CGRP significantly increased. The levels of NPY and CGRP reached a peak in the 8th week and reduced significantly thereafter. NPY and CGRP inhibitors could inhibit fracture healing and down-regulate the phosphorylated ERK. Macrophages (NPY+ and CGRP+) aggregated in the injury area. CONCLUSION: NPY and CGRP participated in fracture healing, in which they were also shown to influence phosphorylated ERK expression. In addition, macrophages are involved in the fracture healing process.

Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a systemic inflammatory response due to the recognition of major histocompatibility complex disparity between donor and recipient after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). T-cell activation is critical to the induction of GVHD, and data from our group and others have shown that regulatory T cells (Tregs) prevent GVHD when given at the time of HSCT. Using multiphoton laser scanning microscopy, we examined the single cell dynamics of donor T cells and dendritic cells (DCs) with or without Tregs postallogeneic transplantation. We found that donor conventional T cells (Tcons) spent very little time screening host DCs. Tcons formed stable contacts with DCs very early after transplantation and only increased velocity in the lymph node at 20 hours after transplant. We also observed that Tregs reduced the interaction time between Tcons and DCs, which was dependent on the generation of interleukin 10 by Tregs. Imaging using inducible Tregs showed similar disruption of Tcon-DC contact. Additionally, we found that donor Tregs induce host DC death and down-regulate surface proteins required for donor T-cell activation. These data indicate that Tregs use multiple mechanisms that affect host DC numbers and function to mitigate acute GVHD.

The aim of the current study was to prepare microsphere-based composite scaffolds made of nano-hydroxyapatite (nHA)/poly (DL-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) at different ratios and evaluate the effects of nHA on the characteristics of scaffolds for tissue engineering application. First, microsphere-based composite scaffolds made of two ratios of nHA/PLGA (nHA/PLGA = 20/80 and nHA/PLGA = 50/50) were prepared. Then, the effects of nHA on the wettability, mechanical strength, and degradation of scaffolds were investigated. Second, the biocompatibility and osteoinductivity were evaluated and compared by co-culture of scaffolds with bone marrow stromal stem cells (BMSCs). The results showed that the adhesion, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs with nHA/PLGA (50/50) were better than those with nHA/PLGA (20/80). Finally, we implanted the scaffolds into femur bone defects in a rabbit model, then the capacity of guiding bone regeneration as well as the in vivo degradation were observed by micro-CT and histological examinations. After 4 weeks' implantation, there was no significant difference on the repair of bone defects. However, after 8 and 12 weeks' implantation, the nHA/PLGA (20/80) exhibited better bone formation than nHA/PLGA (50/50). These results suggested that a proper concentration of nHA in the nHA/PLGA composite should be taken into account when the composite scaffolds were prepared, which plays an important role in the biocompatibility, degradation rate and osteoconductivity.

The infusion of donor regulatory T cells (Tregs) has been used to prevent acute graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) in mice and has shown promise in phase 1 clinical trials. Previous work suggested that early Treg migration into lymphoid tissue was important for GVHD prevention. However, it is unclear how and where Tregs function longitudinally to affect GVHD. To better understand their mechanism of action, we studied 2 Treg-associated chemokine receptors in murine stem cell transplant models. CC chemokine receptor (CCR) 4 was dispensable for donor Treg function in the transplant setting. Donor Tregs lacking CCR8 (CCR8(-/-)), however, were severely impaired in their ability to prevent lethal GVHD because of increased cell death. By itself, CCR8 stimulation was unable to rescue Tregs from apoptosis. Instead, CCR8 potentiated Treg survival by promoting critical interactions with dendritic cells. In vivo, donor bone marrow-derived CD11c(+) antigen-presenting cells (APCs) were important for promoting donor Treg maintenance after transplant. In contrast, host CD11c(+) APCs appeared to be dispensable for early activation and expansion of donor Tregs. Collectively, our data indicate that a sustained donor Treg presence is critical for their beneficial properties, and that their survival depends on CCR8 and donor but not host CD11c(+) APCs.

One of the most common oral manifestations of menopause is xerostomia. Oral dryness can profoundly affect quality of life and interfere with basic daily functions, such as chewing, deglutition, and speaking. Although the feeling of oral dryness can be ameliorated after estrogen supplementation, the side effects of estrogen greatly restrict its application. We previously found that N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) is involved in estrogen-mediated ion and fluid transport in a cell-based model. In the present study, we used an ovariectomized rat model to mimic xerostomia in menopausal women and constructed two adenovirus vectors bearing NDRG2 to validate their therapeutic potential. Ovariectomized rats exhibited severe sialaden hypofunction, including decreased saliva secretion and ion reabsorption as well as increased water intake. Immunohistochemistry revealed that the expression of NDRG2 and Na(+) reabsorption-related Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase and epithelial sodium channels (EnaC) decreased in ovariectomized rat salivary glands. We further showed that the localized delivery of NDRG2 improved the dysfunction of Na(+) and Cl(-) reabsorption. In addition, the saliva flow rate and water drinking recovered to normal. This study elucidates the mechanism of estrogen deficiency-mediated xerostomia or sialaden hypofunction and provides a promising strategy for therapeutic intervention.

Human N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) has been shown to be a multifunctional protein associated with cell proliferation, differentiation, transmembrane transport, and stress responses. In most mammalian brains, NDRG2 is principally expressed in astrocytic cells throughout different regions. NDRG2 has been increasingly implicated in the regulation of neurogenesis and in the development of nervous system diseases, including neurodegeneration, ischemia, and glioblastoma. This review summarizes the distribution and subcellular localization of NDRG2 in brain tissues, highlights the physiological actions of NDRG2 in the nervous system, and further discusses the roles of NDRG2 during the occurrence and development of several nervous system diseases.

Gallium oxide nanorods with unprecedented small dimensions (20-80â nm length and 3-5â nm width) were prepared using a novel, template-free synthesis method. This nanomaterial is an excellent heterogeneous catalyst for the sustainable epoxidation of alkenes with H2 O2 , rivaling the industrial benchmark microporous titanosilicate TS-1 with linear alkenes and being much superior with bulkier substrates. A thorough characterization study elucidated the correlation between the physicochemical properties of the gallium oxide nanorods and their catalytic performance, and underlined the importance of the nanorod morphology for generating a material with high specific surface area and a high number of accessible acid sites.
RESUMEN
Molecular triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion often experiences drastic luminescence quenching in the presence of oxygen molecules, posing a significant constraint on practical use in aerated conditions. We present an oxygen-immune near-infrared triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion system utilizing non-organometallic cyanine sensitizers (λex = 808 nm) and chemically synthesized benzo[4,5]thieno[2,3-b][1,2,5]thiadiazolo[3,4-g]quinoxaline dyes with a defined dimer structure as annihilators (λem = 650 nm). This system exhibits ultrastable upconversion under continuous laser irradiance (>480 mins) or extended storage (>7 days) in aerated solutions. Mechanistic investigations reveal rapid triplet-triplet energy transfer from sensitizer to annihilators, accompanied by remarkably low triplet oxygen quenching efficiencies ( η O 2 < 13% for the sensitizer, <3.7% for the annihilator), endowing the bicomponent triplet-triplet annihilation system with inherent oxygen immunity. Our findings unlock the direct and potent utilization of triplet-triplet annihilation upconversion systems in real-world applications, demonstrated by the extended and sensitive nanosensing of peroxynitrite radicals in the liver under in vivo nitrosative stress.
RESUMEN
Although covalent organic frameworks (COFs) with high π-conjugation have recently exhibited great prospects in perovskite solar cells (PSCs), their further application in PSCs is still hindered by face-to-face stacking and aggregation issues. Herein, metal-organic framework (MOF-808) is selected as an ideal platform for the in situ homogeneous growth of a COF to construct a core-shell MOF@COF nanoparticle, which could effectively inhibit COF stacking and aggregation. The synergistic intrinsic mechanisms induced by the MOF@COF nanoparticles for reinforcing intrinsic stability and mitigating lead leakage in PSCs have been explored. The complementary utilization of π-conjugated skeletons and nanopores could optimize the crystallization of large-grained perovskite films and eliminate defects. The resulting PSCs achieve an impressive power conversion efficiency of 23.61% with superior open circuit voltage (1.20 V) and maintained approximately 90% of the original power conversion efficiency after 2000 h (30-50% RH and 25-30 °C). Benefiting from the synergistic effects of the in situ chemical fixation and adsorption abilities of the MOF@COF nanoparticles, the amount of lead leakage from unpackaged PSCs soaked in water (< 5 ppm) satisfies the laboratory assessment required for the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act Regulation.
