RESUMEN
Over the past 20 years, various zebrafish injury models demonstrated efficient heart regeneration after cardiac tissue loss. However, no established coronary vessel injury methods exist in the zebrafish model, despite coronary endothelial dysfunction occurring in most patients with acute coronary syndrome. This is due to difficulties performing surgery on small coronary vessels and a lack of genetic tools to precisely manipulate coronary cells in zebrafish. We determined that the Notch ligand gene deltaC regulatory sequences drive gene expression in zebrafish coronary endothelial cells, enabling us to overcome these obstacles. We created a deltaC fluorescent reporter line and visualized robust coronary growth during heart development and regeneration. Importantly, this reporter facilitated the visualization of coronary growth without an endocardial background. Moreover, we visualized robust coronary growth on the surface of juvenile hearts and regrowth in the wounded area of adult hearts ex vivo. With this approach, we observed growth inhibition by reported vascular growth antagonists of the VEGF, EGF and Notch signaling pathways. Furthermore, we established a coronary genetic ablation system and observed that severe coronary endothelial cell loss resulted in fish death, whereas fish survived mild coronary cell loss. Coronary cell depletion triggered regenerative responses, which resulted in the restoration of damaged cardiac tissues within several weeks. Overall, our work demonstrated the efficacy of using deltaC regulatory elements for high-resolution visualization of the coronary endothelium; screening small molecules for coronary growth effects; and revealed complete recovery in adult zebrafish after coronary-induced heart damage.

Photocatalytic decomposition of water to produce hydrogen H2 is an ideal way to solve energy and environmental problems, and the development of highly efficient polyoxometalate catalysts for photocatalytic hydrogen production has attracted wide attention. Herein, two Cu-modified Strandberg-type organophosphomolybdates were successfully synthesized, [Cu(C8H7N3)(H2O)2]2[(C6H5PO3)2Mo5O15]·4H2O (1) and [Cu(phen)(H2O)][Cu(phen)(H2O)2][(C6H5PO3)2Mo5O15]·2H2O (2) ([(C6H5P)2Mo5O21]Cu2) (C8H7N3 = 2-(1H-pyrazol-3-yl)pyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline). Two Strandberg-type organophosphomolybdates can be used for visible-light-driven hydrogen production. Also, compound 2 exhibits an H2 production rate of 6399 µmol g-1 h-1 after 8 h light exposure in the presence of photosensitization agent [Ir(dtbbpy)(ppy)2][PF6] and TEOA. In addition, cyclic tests showed that compound 2 could be recycled four times without a significant reduction in catalytic performance. This work offers fresh insight into the development of novel polyoxometalates for efficient hydrogen evolution.
RESUMEN
The construction of attractive dual-functional lanthanide-based metal-organic frameworks (Ln-MOFs) with ratiometric fluorescent detection and proton conductivity is significant and challenging. Herein, a three-dimensional (3D) Eu-MOF, namely, [Eu4(HL)2(SBA)4(H2O)6]·9H2O, has been hydrothermally synthesized with a dual-ligand strategy, using (4-carboxypiperidyl)-N-methylenephosphonic acid (H3L = H2O3PCH2-NC5H9-COOH) and 4-sulfobenzoic acid monopotassium salt (KHSBA = KO3SC6H4COOH) as organic linkers. Eu-MOF showed ratiometric fluorescent broad-spectrum sensing of benzophenone-like ultraviolet filters (BP-like UVFs) with satisfactory sensitivity, selectivity, and low limits of detection in water/ethanol (1:1, v/v) solutions and real urine systems. A portable test paper was prepared for the convenience of actual detection. The potential sensing mechanisms were thoroughly analyzed by diversified experiments. The synergistic effect of the forbidden energy transfer from the ligand to Eu3+, the internal filtration effect (IFE), the formation of a complex, and weak interactions between the KHSBA ligand and BP-like UVFs is responsible for the ratiometric sensing effect. Meanwhile, Eu-MOF displayed relatively high proton conductivity of 2.60 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 368 K and 95% relative humidity (RH), making it a potential material for proton conduction. This work provides valuable guidance for the facile and effective design and construction of multifunctional Ln-MOFs with promising performance.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVES: Sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL) is one of the common emergencies in otorhinolaryngology. Several studies have shown that chronic inflammation is associated with its onset and prognosis. However, the association between some inflammatory biomarkers and SSNHL is still unclear. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to explore the value of inflammatory biomarkers in the occurrence and prognosis of SSNHL. METHODS: Pubmed, Embase, Cochrane and Web of Science databases were searched comprehensively, the eligible literatures were screened out by formulating the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria. After extracting sample size, mean and standard deviation, we performed meta-analysis with standardized mean deviation (SMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) as effect sizes. RESULTS: A total of 17 articles were included in this meta-analysis, including 2852 subjects, 1423 patients and 1429 healthy controls. The results of meta-analysis showed that the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (SMD = 1.05, 95% CI 0.87-1.24, P < 0.001), the NLR of the recovery group was significantly lower than the unrecovered group (SMD = 0.68, 95% CI 0.27-1.08, P < 0.05); The platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (SMD = 0.55, 95% CI 0.34-0.76, P < 0.05), the PLR of the recovery group was significantly lower than the unrecovered group (SMD = 0.44, 95% CI 0.05-0.82, P < 0.05); The C-reactive protein-to-serum albumin ratio (CRP/Alb) of the experimental group was significantly higher than the control group (SMD = 0.39, 95% CI 0.04-0.74, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The results showed that high NLR, PLR, and CRP/Alb indicated the occurrence of SSNHL, NLR and PLR could predict prognosis of SSNHL.

Construction and investigation of dual-functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with luminescent sensing and proton conduction provide widespread applications in clean energy and environmental monitoring fields. By selecting a phosphonic acid ligand 4-pyridyl-CH2N(CH2PO3H2)2 (H4L) and coligand 2,2'-biimidazole (H2biim), two cadmium-based MOFs [Cd1.5(HL)(H2biim)0.5] (1) and (H4biim)0.5·[Cd2(L)(H2biim)Cl] (2) with different structures and properties have been hydrothermally synthesized by controlling reaction temperature. Based on the excellent thermal and chemical stabilities, and good luminescent stabilities in water solution, 1 and 2 can serve as luminescent sensors of chloramphenicol (CAP) with different quenching constant (KSV) values and detection limits (LODs) in water, simulated environmental system, and real fish water system. Meanwhile, different sensing effects and possible sensing mechanisms are analyzed in detail. Moreover, 1 and 2 can also serve as good proton-conducting materials. The proton conductivities can reach up to 1.41 × 10-4 S cm-1 for 1 and 1.02 × 10-3 S cm-1 for 2 at 368 K and 95% relative humidity (RH). Among them, 2 shows better luminescent sensing and proton conduction performance than 1, which indicates that different crystal structures have a great impact on the properties of MOFs. Through the discussion of the relationship between structures and properties in detail, the possible reasons for the differences in properties are obtained, which can provide theoretical guidance for the rational design of this kind of dual-functional MOFs in the future.

BACKGROUND: ß-N-oxalyl-l-α,ß-diaminopropionic acid (ß-ODAP) is a physiological indicator in response to drying soil. However, how abscisic acid (ABA) modulates ß-ODAP accumulation and its related agronomic characteristics in drought stressed grass pea (Lathyrus sativus L.) continue to be unclear. The present study aimed to evaluate the effects of ABA addition on drought tolerance, agronomic characteristics and ß-ODAP content in grass pea under drought stress. RESULTS: Exogenous ABA significantly promoted ABA levels by 19.3% and 18.3% under moderate and severe drought stress, respectively, compared to CK (without ABA, used as control check treatment). ABA addition activated earlier trigger of non-hydraulic root-sourced signal at 69.1% field capacity (FC) (65.5% FC in CK) and accordingly prolonged its operation period to 45.6% FC (49.0% FC in CK). This phenomenon was mechanically associated with the physiological mediation of ABA, where its addition significantly promoted the activities of leaf superoxide dismutase, catalase and peroxidase enzymes and the biosynthesis of leaf proline, simultaneously lowering the accumulation of malondialdehyde and hydrogen peroxide under moderate and severe stresses. Interestingly, ABA application significantly increased seed ß-ODAP content by 21.7% and 21.3% under moderate and severe drought stress, but did not change leaf ß-ODAP content. Furthermore, ABA application produced similar shoot biomass and grain yield as control groups. CONCLUSION: Exogenous ABA improved the drought adaptability of grass pea and promoted the synthesis of ß-ODAP in seeds but not in leaves. Our findings provide novel insights into the agronomic role of ABA in relation to ß-ODAP enrichment in grass pea subjected to drought stress. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.

It remains a challenge to exploit dual-functional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) for applications, including luminescence detection and proton conduction. With the deliberate selection of the bifunctional organic ligand 5-sulfoisophthalic acid monosodium salt (NaH2bts), and the phosphonic acid ligand N,N'-piperazine (bismethylenephosphonic acid; H4L), a robust three-dimensional (3D) noninterpenetrating dual-functional MOF, [Tb(H2L)(H2bts)(H2O)]·H2O (1), has been synthesized hydrothermally. On the basis of the excellent thermal and chemical as well as superior luminescence stabilities in water and solutions with different pHs, 1 can serve as the simple, rapid, and highly selective and sensitive luminescence detection of the carcinoid biomarkers 5-hydroxytryptamine (HT) and its metabolite 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid (HIAA) with detection limits of nanomolar magnitude in water and in simulated blood plasma and urine systems. Due to the change in the signals that could be readily differentiated by the naked eye under a UV lamp, a portable test paper has been developed. The probable quenching mechanisms are discussed in detail. In addition, a great number of hydrogen-bonding networks are formed among the uncoordinated carboxylic oxygen atoms, sulfonate oxygen atoms, protonated nitrogen atoms, and water molecules, which provide potential proton-hopping sites for proton conduction, leading to a maximum proton conductivity of 2.3 × 10-4 S cm-1 at 368 K and 95% relative humidity. The above results suggest that rationally designed dual-functional MOFs can open an avenue for the development of occupational diagnostic tools and alternative energy technology.

It is promising and challenging to manipulate the electronic structures and functions of materials utilizing both metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT) and spin-crossover (SCO) to tune the valence and spin states of metal ions. Herein, a metallocyanate building block is used to link with a FeII -triazole moiety and generates a mixed-valence complex {[(Tp4-Me )FeIII (CN)3 ]9 [FeII 4 (trz-ph)6 ]}â [Ph3 PMe]2 â [(Tp4-Me )FeIII (CN)3 ] (1; trz-ph=4-phenyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole). Moreover, MMCT occurs between FeIII and one of the FeII sites after heat treatment, resulting in the generation of a new phase, {[(Tp4-Me )FeII (CN)3 ][(Tp4-Me )FeIII (CN)3 ]8 [FeIII FeII 3 (trz-ph)6 ]}â [Ph3 PMe]2 â [(Tp4-Me )FeIII (CN)3 ] (1 a). Structural and magnetic studies reveal that MMCT can tune the two-step SCO behavior of 1 into one-step SCO behavior of 1 a. Our work demonstrates that the integration of MMCT and SCO can provide a new alternative for manipulating functional spin-transition materials with accessible multi-electronic states.
RESUMEN
The reaction of mid-lanthanide (Ln) ions with the preformed {Se6W39} precursor under reasonably acidic aqueous conditions in the presence of organic amine cations results in an unprecedented nanoscale lanthanide-functionalized polyoxotungstate family, which are rare examples of mid-lanthanide-containing selenotungstates. (C4H10NO)9Na3[Dy3Se3.5W30O107.5(H2O)10]·22H2O (1) and (NH4)3(C2H8N)Na2[Dy4Se6W38O132(H2O)26(OH)6]·18H2O (2) reveal a trimeric Keggin assembly and a cyclic {Se6W38}-based chain, respectively, whereas (NH4)4Na8[Gd4Se6W48O166(H2O)20(OH)4]·21H2O (3) and (NH4)9(C2H8N)4Na5[Ln6Se6W58O202(H2O)20(OH)4]·58H2O (4; Ln = Gd, Tb, or Dy) are a few examples of polyoxometalates consisting of both classical Keggin and Wells-Dawson building blocks, and (NH4)4(C2H8N)5Na13[Ln4Se8W56O196(H2O)x(OH)10]·40H2O (5; Ln = Gd, Tb, or Dy; x = 12 for Gd and Tb and 10 for Dy) features the largest "pure" Wells-Dawson selenotungstate {Se8W56} bearing a length of 3.73 nm. A library of Se-templated species involving the first reported Keggin {α-SeW8} and Wells-Dawson {α-Se2W16} building blocks as well as some decisive assembly factors during the synthesis is responsible for these architectures. All of the compounds were structurally characterized in the solid and solution by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, IR, thermogravimetric-differential thermal analysis, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Magnetic properties indicate that 1 and 4-Dy show probable single-molecule-magnet behavior with obvious frequency dependence, whereas 3 and 4-Gd present the antiferromagnetic interactions between the GdIII centers.
RESUMEN
Understanding the effects of intermolecular interactions on metal-to-metal charge transfer (MMCT) is crucial to develop molecular devices by grafting MMCT-based molecular arrays. Herein, we report a series of solvent-free {Fe2 Co2 } compounds sharing the same cationic tetranuclear {[Fe(PzTp)(CN)3 ]2 [Co(dpq)2 ]2 }2+ (PzTp- =tetrakis(pyrazolyl)borate, dpq=dipyrido[3,2-d:2',3'-f]quinoxaline) square units but having anions with different size, including BF4 - , PF6 - , OTf- , and [Fe(PzTp)(CN)3 ]- . Intermolecular πâ â â π interactions between dpq ligands, which coordinate to cobalt ions in the {[Fe(PzTp)(CN)3 ]2 [Co(dpq)2 ]2 }2+ units, can be modulated by introducing different counterions, regulating the distortion of the CoN6 octahedron and ligand field around the cobalt ions. This change results in different MMCT behavior. Computational analyzes reveal the substantial role of the intermolecular interactions tuned by the presence of different counteranions on the MMCT behavior.

The root rot disease is a common disease during the cultivation of Panax quinquefolius. In order to provide some clues for solving the root rot disease of P. quinquefolius, the relationship between rhizosphere soil fungal communities and root rot of P. quinquefolius was investigated in this study. The diversities and the changes of fungal communities structure in blank control group (group C), rhizosphere soil of healthy P. quinquefolius (group N) and occurrence of root rot in rhizosphere soil of P. quinquefolius (group R)were analyzed byusing the Illumina MiSeq high-throughput sequencing technology. A total of 505 968 high-quality sequences were obtained through high-throughput sequencing and the rare faction curves analysis showed that the sequencing depth was sufficient and the sampling was reasonable. The fungal communities structure of rhizosphere soil samples mainly belonged to 9 phylums including Ascomycota(54.9%), Basidiomycota(5.6%), etc., and the dominant specie was Ascomycota of the total fungal identified, respectively. The 115 genera of fungi were tested, including Monographella (3.9%), Archaeorhizomyces (3.9%), Mortierella, etc., and the dominant specie was Monographella. At the genus level, the abundance of Monographella and Mortierella in group R increased significantly compared with the abundance in groups C and N. Alpha diversity index of species showed that the diversity index of fungal communities reduced and the numbers of fungi reduced in group N and R, compared with group C, and reaching the minimum in group R. Beta diversity index of species showed that there was a significant difference in the fungal communities structure in each sample. In addition, the heat map analysis revealed that the dominant fungal genera were significantly different among the each sample. The proportion of Monographella and Mortierella in group R was significantly higher than that in group C and N, while the proportion of Trichoderma,Penicillium and Cadophora in group R was extremely low. The proportion of Phoma and Gibberella in group R increased significantly compared with group C. This study clarified the decline of diversity index and the imbalance of community structure in fungi may lead to the occurrence of root rot in P. quinquefolius by analysis of fungal diversity and community composition in the rhizosphere soil of P. quinquefolius in this study, which provided a theoretical basis for the prevention and treatment of occurrence of root rot in P. quinquefolius.

Tuning of the spin crossover (SCO) behavior through paramagnetic building blocks with different steric hindrance effects is of great interest in terms of the synergy between SCO and magnetic interactions. Herein, the steric effect of specified FeIII building blocks is modified, from the large Tp* (hydridotris(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)borate) analogue to a small Tp (hydrotris(pyrazolyl)borate) derivative; the FeII SCO unit and FeIII paramagnetic ions are incorporated into three well isolated trinuclear complexes featuring thermally induced and light-induced SCO properties. Reanalysis of the structures reveals that π-π stacking interactions play a key role in the thermal hysteresis and anomalous octahedral distortion parameter Σ around the FeII ion. The Tp* ligand showing the largest steric hindrance induces elongated FeII -N bond lengths and bending of the C≡N-FeII angle in 1, as well as having a relatively large electron donor effect, which leads to the lowest thermal transition temperature among the three compounds.
RESUMEN
A major challenge is the development of multifunctional metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), wherein magnetic and electronic functionality can be controlled simultaneously. Herein, we rationally construct two 3D MOFs by introducing the redox active ligand tetra(4-pyridyl)tetrathiafulvalene (TTF(py)4 ) and spin-crossover FeII centers. The materials exhibit redox activity, in addition to thermally and photo-induced spin crossover (SCO). A crystal-to-crystal transformation induced by I2 doping has also been observed and the resulting intercalated structure determined. The conductivity could be significantly enhanced (up to 3 orders of magnitude) by modulating the electronic state of the framework via oxidative doping; SCO behavior was also modified and the photo-magnetic behavior was switched off. This work provides a new strategy to tune the spin state and conductivity of framework materials through guest-induced redox-state switching.

Objective:To study the characteristics of Mismatch negativityï¼MMNï¼ in normal hearing patients of different ages, and to compare the MMN of normal hearing subjects at different ages to explore the differences in MMN between different ages. Methods:MMN test was performed on both ears using the classic Oddball mode. A frequency of 1 000 Hzï¼standard stimuliï¼ and 2 000 Hzï¼deviant stimuliï¼ was used to evoked the MMN. According to different age groups: the juvenile groupï¼7-17 years oldï¼, the youth groupï¼18-44 years oldï¼, the middle-aged groupï¼45-59 years oldï¼, and the elderly groupï¼60-75 years oldï¼, with 25 cases in each group. The MMN characteristics of normal hearing subjects in different age groups were analyzed statistically and the differences between groups were compared. All subjects underwent pure tone threshold test, tympanic reactance test and ABR test before MMN test. Results:MMN waveform could be elicited from both ears of 100 subjects. Among them, the average latency of the juvenile group wasï¼159.70±20.34ï¼ ms while the average amplitude wasï¼4.34±2.26ï¼ µV, For the youth group, the average latency wasï¼166.01±28.67ï¼ ms and the average amplitude wasï¼3.70±2.28ï¼ µV. Then in the middle-aged group, the average latency wasï¼175.16±37.24ï¼ ms, meanwhile, the average amplitude wasï¼2.69±0.84ï¼ µV. Finally, the elderly group has an average latency ofï¼178.03±14.37ï¼ ms and an average amplitude ofï¼2.11±0.70ï¼ µV. Therefore, there was no statistical difference in latency and amplitude between all groupsï¼P>0.05ï¼, and there was no statistical difference in latency and amplitude between left and right ears among all subjects as a wholeï¼P>0.05ï¼. However, when the left and right ears of all groups were compared, it was found that the latency between the left and right ears of the Juvenile group had statistical significanceï¼P<0.05ï¼, and the amplitude difference was not statistically significantï¼P>0.05ï¼, while the latency and amplitude differences between the left and right ears of other groups had no statistical significanceï¼P>0.05ï¼. There were also no significant differences in latency and amplitude between men and womenï¼P>0.05ï¼. Conclusion:There was no statistically significant difference in the latency and amplitude of mismatched negative among normal hearing subjects of different ages, and no statistically significant difference in the MMN latency and amplitude between the left and right ears of subjects and between men and women. Therefore, the study inferred that the auditory cerebral cortex of subjects aged 7-75 years old maintained a stable state for a long time after maturity, and the latency and amplitude of mismatched negative waves were relatively stable. It is not affected by age, gender and ear side, and can stably reflect the auditory cortex function of the subjects. It has broad application prospects in clinical practice, and provides a reliable detection means for future research on the changes of the auditory cerebral cortex of patients, which is worthy of our further research and clinical promotion.

Basic research on chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) has advanced significantly in the past two decades, yet a comprehensive understanding of its pathogenic mechanisms remains elusive. Concurrently, there is a growing interest among scientists in exploring the involvement of autophagy in various human diseases, including tumors and inflammatory conditions. While the role of autophagy in asthma has been extensively studied in airway inflammatory diseases, its significance in CRS with or without nasal polyps (NPs), a condition closely linked to asthma pathophysiology, has also garnered attention, albeit with conflicting findings across studies. This review delves into the role of autophagy in CRS, suggesting that modulating autophagy to regulate inflammatory responses could potentially serve as a novel therapeutic target.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: Madelung's disease (MD), alternatively referred to as benign symmetric lipomatosis, multiple symmetric lipomatosis, or Launois-Bensaude syndrome, is an uncommon benign disorder marked by symmetric proliferation of adipose tissue in the head, neck, and torso regions. CASE DESCRIPTION: In this case, the patient was a female with the late middle-aged demographic, diagnosed with Type I MD. Notably, she exhibited no prior history of alcohol consumption, and there was no family history of MD. Subsequent to the clinical diagnosis, the patient underwent medical imaging assessments to delineate the surgical parameters. Post-surgery, she demonstrated a favorable recovery trajectory, marked by the absence of any surgical complications. RESULT: The patient underwent successful surgical excision of the lipomatous mass. Postoperatively, she had an uneventful recovery with no complications and no recurrence observed during the follow-up period of seven months. CONCLUSION: Timely diagnosis and early surgical intervention play a pivotal role in enhancing the quality of life for individuals with MD. Preoperative medical imaging examinations function as highly effective tools, contributing to heightened surgical safety and a decreased probability of encountering complications during the surgical procedure.

The current traditional phenol production process has many shortcomings, and the efficient and clean photocatalytic one-step oxidation to phenol is gradually attracting attention. Heteropolyacids (PMo10V2) with high-density Lewis acid active sites and excellent photoelectron transfer ability are ideal choices for catalytic reactions. In this study, a copper-modified isolated dimeric hybrid nanocluster, [Cu(pyim)2]2[Cu(pyim)2(P2MoVI20MoV2VIV4O82)]2·(H2O) (pyim = [2-(pyridin-2-yl)imidazole]), was synthesized by a convenient hydrothermal method. The structural analysis demonstrated that the compound was composed of metal-organic complexes containing pyim ligands, Keggin-type heteropolyacids, and transition metal copper ions. Remarkably, this not only solves the difficulty that the heteropolymeric acid cannot be recovered by dissolving in the solvent but also introduces the copper atom as a second active center. The catalyst exhibited a benzene conversion of 15.6% and a selectivity of 85.2% in a mixed solution of acetonitrile and acetic acid under optimal reaction conditions. After four catalytic cycles, the PXRD pattern proved that the catalyst was still stable. This study provides a good idea for photocatalytic reactions and other environmental applications.
