RESUMEN

Hypertrophic scar (HS) is one of the most common sequelae of patients, especially after burns and trauma. The roles of regulatory long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) in mediating HS remain underexplored. Human hypertrophic scar-derived fibroblasts (HSFBs) have been shown to exert more potent promoting effects on extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation than normal skin-derived fibroblasts (NSFBs) and are associated with enhanced HS formation. The purpose of this study is to search for lncRNAs enriched in HSFBs and investigate their roles and mechanisms. LncRNA MSTRG.59347.16 is one of the most highly expressed lncRNAs in HS detected by lncRNA-seq and qRT-PCR and named as hypertrophic scar fibroblast-associated lncRNA (HSFAS). HSFAS overexpression significantly induces fibroblast proliferation, migration, and myofibroblast trans-differentiation and inhibits apoptosis in HSFBs, while knockdown of HSFAS results in augmented apoptosis and attenuated proliferation, migration, and myofibroblast trans-differentiation of HSFBs. Mechanistically, HSFAS suppresses the expression of A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 8 (ADAMTS8). ADAMTS8 knockdown rescues downregulated HSFAS-mediated fibroblast proliferation, migration, myofibroblast trans-differentiation and apoptosis. Thus, our findings uncover a previously unknown lncRNA-dependent regulatory pathway for fibroblast function. Targeted intervention in the HSFAS-ADAMTS8 pathway is a potential therapy for HS.

RESUMEN

n-Undecane (C11) is the main component of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from the printing industry, and its emission to the atmosphere should be controlled. In this study, a dielectric barrier discharge reactor coupled with CeO2/γ-Al2O3 catalysts was used to degrade C11. The effect of the chemical state of CeO2 on C11 degradation was evaluated by varying the CeO2 loading on γ-Al2O3. The C11 conversion and COx selectivity were as high as 92% and 80%, respectively, under mild reaction conditions of energy density 34 J/L and 423 K to degrade 134 mg/m3 C11 in a simulated air using 10 wt%CeO2 impregnated on γ-Al2O3. After analyses using in-situ plasma diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, it was found that most of C11 were degraded to CO2, and the main by-products on catalyst surfaces were alcohols and ketones. It was concluded from X-ray photoemission spectroscopy that the good performance of the 10 wt%CeO2/γ-Al2O3 catalyst was due to its high Ce3+/(Ce3++Ce4+) ratio as well as the oxygen vacancies. The Ce3+/(Ce3++Ce4+) ratio of CeO2 on γ-Al2O3 is crucial for the degradation of C11, providing a further roadmap for the plasma catalytic oxidation of alkanes.

RESUMEN

Pristine and ball milled wheat stalk biochars pyrolysed at 300 °C, 450 °C, 600 °C were studied for tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) adsorption from aqueous solution. Surface characteristics of ball milled biochar (BM-biochar) were significantly enhanced over their pristine counterparts. TCH adsorption occurred largely on external surface and by filling pores of biochars as evidenced by strong positive correlation between adsorption and external specific surface area (SSA), total pore volume, or mesoporous volume. A two-stage intra-particle diffusion model, limited by the TCH diffusion through the boundary liquid layer, well described TCH adsorption. Maximum TCH adsorption occurred at about pH = 6-8. While solution cations including Na+, K+ and Mg2+ subdued TCH adsorption as they competed for adsorption sites, Ca2+ promoted TCH adsorption due to formation of tetracycline-Ca2+ complexes. The best performing BM-biochar was the one pyrolysed at 600 °C with TCH adsorption amount of 84.54 mg/g. Therefore, this BM-biochar has the potential for TCH removal from aqueous solutions. And the research shed light on the management of organic contaminants in real wastewater by BM-biochar.
