RESUMEN
Iron homeostasis is essential for maintaining metabolic health and iron disorder has been linked to chronic metabolic diseases. Increasing thermogenic capacity in adipose tissue has been considered as a potential approach to regulate energy homeostasis. Both Mitochondrial biogenesis and mitochondrial function are iron dependent and essential for adipocyte thermogenic capacity, but the underlying relationships between iron accumulation and adipose thermogenesis is unclear. Firstly, we confirmed that iron homeostasis and the iron regulatory markers (e.g. Tfr1, Hfe) are involved in cold induced thermogenesis in subcutaneous adipose tissues using RNA-seq and bioinformatic analysis. Secondly, an Hfe (Hfe-/-) deficient mouse model, in which tissues become overloaded with iron, was employed. We found iron accumulation caused by Hfe deficiency enhanced mitochondrial respiratory chain expression in subcutaneous white adipose in vivo and resulted in enhanced tissue thermogenesis with upregulation of PGC-1α and ATGL, mitochondrial biogenesis and lipolysis. To investigate the thermogenic capacity in vitro, stromal vascular fraction (SVF) from adipose tissues was isolated, followed with adipogenic differentiation. Primary adipocyte from Hfe-/- mice exhibited higher cellular oxygen consumption, associated with enhanced expression of mitochondrial oxidative respiratory chain protein, while primary adipocytes or SVFs from WT mice supplemented with iron citrate (FAC) exhibited similar effect in thermogenic capacity. Taken together, these findings indicate iron supplementation and iron accumulation (Hfe deficiency) can regulate adipocyte thermogenic capacity, suggesting a potential role for iron homeostasis in adipose tissues.
RESUMEN
Co-pyrolysis with low-sulfur biomass is expected to improve the yield and quality of bio-fuels, without the usage of calcium-based desulfurizer. Sulfur transformation during microwave fluidized-bed co-pyrolysis between terrestrial and marine biomass (Ascophyllum, AS; Rice straw, RS) was investigated. Sulfur release was promoted during biomass co-pyrolysis, but it was inhibited during pyrolysis between AS and low-sulfur char. Thermal cracking of biomass was promoted during co-pyrolysis between biomass, accelerating the combination of H atoms and -SH radicals. Introduction of low-sulfur bio-char (CA) inhibited the generation of bio-char and the release of sulfur. Released sulfur was captured by -OH/C = C functional groups on bio-char through dehydration reactions/addition reactions, forming mercaptan in bio-char. Furthermore, introduction of microwave and bio-char promoted the cyclization and aromatization reaction, converting mercaptan to thiophene and improving the thermal stability of solid sulfur, and thus increasing in-situ sulfur fixation rate.

BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is routinely used to treat patients with advanced gastric cancer (AGC). However, the identification of reliable markers to determine which AGC patients would benefit from NACT remains challenging. METHODS: A systematic screening of plasma proteins between NACT-sensitive and NACT-resistant AGC patients was performed by a mass spectrometer (n = 6). The effect of the most differential plasma protein was validated in two independent cohorts with AGC patients undergoing NACT (ELISA cohort: n = 155; Validated cohort: n = 203). The expression of this candidate was examined in a cohort of AGC tissues using immunohistochemistry (n = 34). The mechanism of this candidate on 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) resistance was explored by cell-biology experiments in vitro and vivo. RESULTS: A series of differential plasma proteins between NACT-sensitive and NACT-resistant AGC patients was identified. Among them, plasma HIST1H2BK was validated as a significant biomarker for predicting NACT response and prognosis. Moreover, HIST1H2BK was over-expression in NACT-resistant tissues compared to NACT-sensitive tissues in AGC. Mechanistically, HIST1H2BK inhibited 5-FU-induced apoptosis by upregulating A2M transcription and then activating LRP/PI3K/Akt pathway, thereby promoting 5-FU resistance in GC cells. Intriguingly, HIST1H2BK-overexpressing 5-FU-resistant GC cells propagated resistance to 5-FU-sensitive GC cells through the secretion of HIST1H2BK. CONCLUSION: This study highlights significant differences in plasma protein profiles between NACT-resistant and NACT-sensitive AGC patients. Plasma HIST1H2BK emerged as an effective biomarker for achieving more accurate NACT in AGC. The mechanism of intracellular and secreted HIST1H2BK on 5-FU resistance provided a novel insight into chemoresistance in AGC.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: This multicenter, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial (RCT) aims to assess the impact of an artificial intelligence (AI)-based model on the efficacy of intracranial aneurysm detection in CT angiography (CTA) and its influence on patients' short-term and long-term outcomes. METHODS: Study design: Prospective, multicenter, double-blinded RCT. SETTINGS: The model was designed for the automatic detection of intracranial aneurysms from original CTA images. PARTICIPANTS: Adult inpatients and outpatients who are scheduled for head CTA scanning. Randomization groups: (1) Experimental Group: Head CTA interpreted by radiologists with the assistance of the True-AI-integrated intracranial aneurysm diagnosis strategy (True-AI arm). (2) Control Group: Head CTA interpreted by radiologists with the assistance of the Sham-AI-integrated intracranial aneurysm diagnosis strategy (Sham-AI arm). RANDOMIZATION: Block randomization, stratified by center, gender, and age group. PRIMARY OUTCOMES: Coprimary outcomes of superiority in patient-level sensitivity and noninferiority in specificity for the True-AI arm to the Sham-AI arm in intracranial aneurysms. SECONDARY OUTCOMES: Diagnostic performance for other intracranial lesions, detection rates, workload of CTA interpretation, resource utilization, treatment-related clinical events, aneurysm-related events, quality of life, and cost-effectiveness analysis. BLINDING: Study participants and participating radiologists will be blinded to the intervention. SAMPLE SIZE: Based on our pilot study, the patient-level sensitivity is assumed to be 0.65 for the Sham-AI arm and 0.75 for the True-AI arm, with specificities of 0.90 and 0.88, respectively. The prevalence of intracranial aneurysms for patients undergoing head CTA in the hospital is approximately 12%. To establish superiority in sensitivity and noninferiority in specificity with a margin of 5% using a one-sided α = 0.025 to ensure that the power of coprimary endpoint testing reached 0.80 and a 5% attrition rate, the sample size was determined to be 6450 in a 1:1 allocation to True-AI or Sham-AI arm. DISCUSSION: The study will determine the precise impact of the AI system on the detection performance for intracranial aneurysms in a double-blinded design and following the real-world effects on patients' short-term and long-term outcomes. TRIAL REGISTRATION: This trial has been registered with the NIH, U.S. National Library of Medicine at ClinicalTrials.gov, ID: NCT06118840 . Registered 11 November 2023.

Flexible solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) are highly desirable for future wearable electronics because of their high energy density and safety. However, flexible SSLMBs face serious challenges not only in regulating the Li plating/stripping behaviors but also in enabling the mechanical flexibility of the cell. Both challenges are largely associated with the interfacial gaps between the solid electrolytes and the electrodes. Here, a UV-permeable and flexible composited Li metal anode (UVp-Li), which possesses a unique light-penetrating interwoven structure similar to textiles is reported. UVp-Li allows one-step bonding of the cathode, anode, and solid electrolyte via an in situ UV-initiated polymerization method to achieve the gapless SSLMBs. The gapless structure not only effectively stabilizes the plating/stripping of Li metal during cycling, but also ensures the integrity of the cell during mechanical bending. UVp-Li symmetric cell presents a stable cycling over 1000 h at 0.5 mA cm-2. LiFePO4||UVp-Li full cells (areal capacity ranging from 0.5 to 3 mAh cm-2) show outstanding capacity retention of over 84% after 500 charge/discharge cycles at room temperature. Large pouch cells using high-loading cathodes maintain stable electrochemical performance during 1000 times of dynamic bending.
RESUMEN
Despite multiple-resonance thermally activated delayed fluorescence (MR-TADF) emitters with small full-width at half maximum are attractive for wide color-gamut display and eye-protection lighting applications, their inefficient reverse intersystem crossing (RISC) process and long exciton lifetime induce serious efficiency roll-off, which significantly limits their development. Herein, a novel device concept of building highly efficient tricomponent exciplex with multiple RISC channels is proposed to realize reduced exciton quenching and enhanced upconversion of nonradiative triplet excitons, and subsequently used as a host for high-performance MR-TADF organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Compared with traditional binary exciplex, the tricomponent exciplex exhibits obviously improved photoluminescence quantum yield, emitting dipole orientation and RISC rate constant, and a record-breaking external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 30.4% is achieved for tricomponent exciplex p-PhBCzPh: PO-T2T: DspiroAc-TRZ (50: 20: 30) based OLED. Remarkably, maximum EQEs of 36.2% and 40.3% and ultralow efficiency roll-off with EQEs of 26.1% and 30.0% at 1000 cd m-2 are respectively achieved for its sky-blue and pure-green MR-TADF doped OLEDs. Additionally, the blue emission unit hosted by tricomponent exciplex is combined with an orange-red TADF emission unit to achieve a double-emission-layer blue-hazard-free warm white OLED with an EQEmax of 30.3% and stable electroluminescence spectra over a wide brightness range.
RESUMEN
Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals enable the realization and exploitation of quantum phenomena in a controlled manner, and can be scaled up for commercial uses. These materials have become important for a wide range of applications, from ultrahigh definition displays, to solar cells, quantum computing, bioimaging, optical communications, and many more. Over the last decade, lead-halide perovskite nanocrystals have rapidly gained prominence as efficient semiconductors. Although the majority of studies have focused on large nanocrystals in the weak- to intermediate-confinement regime, quantum dots (QDs) in the strongly-confined regime (with sizes smaller than the Bohr diameter, which ranges from 4-12 nm for lead-halide perovskites) offer unique opportunities, including polarized light emission and color-pure, stable luminescence in the region that is unattainable by perovskites with single-halide compositions. In this tutorial review, we bring together the latest insights into this emerging and rapidly growing area, focusing on the synthesis, steady-state optical properties (including exciton fine-structure splitting), and transient kinetics (including hot carrier cooling) of strongly-confined perovskite QDs. We also discuss recent advances in their applications, including single photon emission for quantum technologies, as well as light-emitting diodes. We finish with our perspectives on future challenges and opportunities for strongly-confined QDs, particularly around improving the control over monodispersity and stability, important fundamental questions on the photophysics, and paths forward to improve the performance of perovskite QDs in light-emitting diodes.
RESUMEN
Ocular toxoplasmosis (OT) is an intraocular infection caused by the parasite Toxoplasma gondii. OT is manifested as retinal choroiditis and is the most common infectious cause of posterior uveitis. Invasion of the retina by T. gondii leads to disruption of the blood-ocular barrier and promotes the migration of immune cells to the ocular tissues. Cytokines such as IFN-γ and IL-1ß are effective for controlling parasite growth, but excessive inflammatory responses can cause damage to the host. In this review, we will discuss in detail the latest advances in the immunopathology and treatment of OT.

Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer-associated deaths worldwide, among which non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for 80%. Stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) inhibition results in a significant depletion of NSCLC metastasis. Additionally, SDF-1 is the only natural chemokine known to bind and activate the receptor CXCR4. Thus, we attempted to clarify the molecular mechanism of SDF-1 underlying NSCLC progression. Transwell migration, adhesion, and G-LISA assays were used to assess megakaryocytic chemotaxis in vitro and in vivo in terms of megakaryocytic migration, adherence, and RhoA activation, respectively. Western blotting was used to assess PI3K/Akt-associated protein abundances in MEG-01 cells and primary megakaryocytes under the indicated treatment. A hematology analyzer and flow cytometry were used to assess platelet counts in peripheral blood and newly formed platelet counts in Lewis LC mice under different treatments. Immunochemistry and flow cytometry were used to measure CD41+ megakaryocyte numbers in Lewis LC mouse tissue under different treatments. ELISA was used to measure serum TPO levels, and H&E staining was used to detect NSCLC metastasis.SDF-1 receptor knockdown suppressed megakaryocytic chemotaxis in Lewis LC mice. SDF-1 receptor inhibition suppressed megakaryocytic chemotaxis via the PI3K/Akt pathway. SDF-1 receptor knockdown suppressed CD41+ megakaryocyte numbers in vivo through PI3K/Akt signaling. SDF-1 receptor inhibition suppressed CD41+ megakaryocytes to hinder NSCLC metastasis. SDF-1 facilitates NSCLC metastasis by enhancing the chemoattraction of megakaryocytes via the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, which may provide a potential new direction for seeking therapeutic plans for NSCLC.

Venous malformations are the most common congenital vascular malformations, and the incidence rate is high. Previous studies have confirmed that a variety of polymorphisms within the miRNA functional region are associated with tumor susceptibility. We examined the correlation between miR-618 rs2682818 C>A and risk of developing venous malformation in a southern Chinese population (1113 patients and 1158 controls). TaqMan genotyping of miR-618 rs2682818 C>A was conducted utilizing real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. The miR-618 rs2682818 polymorphism was not correlated with susceptibility to venous malformation (CA/AA vs. CC: adjusted odds ratio [AOR] = 1.00, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.81-1.25, p = 0.994; AA vs. CC/CA: AOR = 1.10, 95% CI = 0.73-1.65, p = 0.646). Stratified analysis of different subtypes of venous malformation revealed that there was no significant difference in the rs2682818 C>A polymorphism genotypes across these subtypes. Our results indicate that miR-618 rs2682818 C>A polymorphism is not correlated with the susceptibility to venous malformation.
RESUMEN
Formaldehyde (HCHO) is one of the key indicators of severe photochemical pollution and strong atmospheric oxidation capacity in southern China. However, current information on the origins of regional HCHO and the impacts of polluted air masses remains scarce and unclear. In this study, an intensive observation of HCHO was conducted at a mountainous background site in southern China during typical photochemical pollution episodes. The concentrations of HCHO reached up to 6.14 ppbv and averaged at 2.68 ± 1.11 ppbv. Source appointment using a photochemical age-based parameterization method revealed significant contributions of secondary formation (50 %) and biomass burning (42 %). Meanwhile, under the influence of the East Asian Winter Monsoon, polluted air masses from central and western China can significantly increase the regional HCHO levels. The simulation results adopting the Rapid Adaptive Optimization Model for Atmospheric Chemistry model further demonstrated that the intrusion of active anthropogenic pollutants (e.g., small-molecule alkenes) can accelerate the net production rate of HCHO, particularly through BVOC-oxidation pathways. This study suggests a potential enhanced mechanism of HCHO production resulting from anthropogenic-biogenic interactions. It highlights that polluted air masses carrying abundant HCHO from upwind areas may facilitate severe photochemical pollution in the Greater Bay Area.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: In vitro screening strategies based on the inhibition of α-glucosidase (GAA) activity have been widely used for the discovery of potential antidiabetic drugs, but they still face some challenges, such as poor enzyme stability, non-reusability and narrow range of applicability. To overcome these limitations, an in vitro screening method based on GAA@GOx@Cu-MOF reactor was developed in our previous study. However, the method was still not satisfactory enough in terms of construction cost, pH stability, organic solvent resistance and reusability. Thence, there is still a great need for the development of in vitro screening methods with lower cost and wider applicability. RESULTS: A colorimetric sensing strategy based on GAA/(Au-Au/IrO2)@Cu(PABA) cascade catalytic reactor, which constructed through simultaneous encapsulating Au-Au/IrO2 nanozyme with glucose oxidase-mimicking and peroxidase-mimicking activities and GAA in Cu(PABA) carrier with peroxidase-mimicking activity, was innovatively developed for in vitro screening of GAA inhibitors in this work. It was found that the reactor not only exhibited excellent thermal stability, pH stability, organic solvent resistance, room temperature storage stability, and reusability, but also possessed cascade catalytic performance, with approximately 12.36-fold increased catalytic activity compared to the free system (GAA + Au-Au/IrO2). Moreover, the in vitro GAA inhibitors screening method based on this reactor demonstrated considerable anti-interference performance and detection sensitivity, with a detection limit of 4.79 nM for acarbose. Meanwhile, the method owned good reliability and accuracy, and has been successfully applied to the in vitro screening of oleanolic acid derivatives as potential GAA inhibitors. SIGNIFICANCE: This method not only more effectively solved the shortcomings of poor stability, narrow scope of application, and non-reusability of natural enzymes in the classical method compared with our previous work, but also broaden the application scope of Au-Au/IrO2 nanozyme with glucose oxidase and peroxidase mimicking activities, and Cu(PABA) carrier with peroxidase mimicking activity, which was expected to be a new generation candidate method for GAA inhibitor screening.

Advances in lung cancer research applying machine learning (ML) technology have generated many relevant literature. However, there is absence of bibliometric analysis review that aids a comprehensive understanding of this field and its progress. Present article for the first time performed a bibliometric analysis to clarify research status and focus from 2010 to 2021. In the analysis, a total of 2,312 relevant literature were searched and retrieved from the Web of Science Core Collection database. We conducted a bibliometric analysis and further visualization. During that time, exponentially growing annual publication and our model have shown a flourishing research prospect. Annual citation reached the peak in 2017. Researchers from United States and China have produced most of the relevant literature and strongest partnership between them. Medical image analysis and Nature appeared to bring more attention to the public. The computer-aided diagnosis, precision medicine, and survival prediction were the focus of research, reflecting the development trend at that period. ML did make a big difference in lung cancer research in the past decade.
RESUMEN
In this study, three eugenol fragment-containing haptens were synthesized, and a monoclonal antibody (mAb) selective for five commonly-found eugenol compounds (EUGs, i.e., eugenol, isoeugenol, methyl eugenol, methyl isoeugenol, and acetyl isoeugenol) was obtained. Based on this mAb, a broad-spectrum indirect competitive ELISA for high-throughput detection of five EUGs was developed. The detection limits for eugenol, isoeugenol, methyl eugenol, methyl isoeugenol and acetyl isoeugenol in both tilapia and shrimp samples were 25.3/ 50.6 µg/kg, 0.075/0.15 µg/kg, 0.48/0.96 µg/kg, 0.16/0.32 µg/kg, and 18.16/36.32 µg/kg, respectively. The recoveries for five EUGs ranged from 80.4 to 114.0 % with a coefficient of variation less than 11.5 %. Moreover, homology modelling and molecular docking were conducted to elucidate the interactions mechanism of mAb-EUGs. The work provides a promising tool for high-throughput screening of EUGs in aquatic products, which can serve as a benchmark for designing haptens and developing immunoassays for other small molecules.
RESUMEN
Controlled synthesis of lead-halide perovskite crystals is challenging yet attractive because of the pivotal role played by the crystal structure and growth conditions in regulating their properties. This study introduces data-driven strategies for the controlled synthesis of oriented quasi-spherical CsPbBr3, alongside an investigation into the synthesis mechanism. High-throughput rapid characterization of absorption spectra and color under ultraviolet illumination was conducted using 23 possible ligands for the synthesis of CsPbBr3 crystals. The links between the absorption spectra slope (difference in the absorbance at 400â nm and 450â nm divided by a wavelength interval of 50â nm) and crystal size were determined through statistical analysis of more than 100 related publications. Big data analysis and machine learning were employed to investigate a total of 688 absorption spectra and 652 color values, revealing correlations between synthesis parameters and properties. Ex situ characterization confirmed successful synthesis of oriented quasi-spherical CsPbBr3 perovskites using polyvinylpyrrolidone and Acacia. Density functional theory calculations highlighted strong adsorption of Acacia on the (110) facet of CsPbBr3. Optical properties of the oriented quasi-spherical perovskites prepared with these data-driven strategies were significantly improved. This study demonstrates that data-driven controlled synthesis facilitates morphology-controlled perovskites with excellent optical properties.
RESUMEN
Textile-based wearable electronics have attracted intensive research interest due to their excellent flexibility and breathability inherent in the unique three-dimensional porous structures. However, one of the challenges lies in achieving highly conductive patterns with high precision and robustness without sacrificing the wearing comfort. Herein, we developed a universal and robust in-textile photolithography strategy for precise and uniform metal patterning on porous textile architectures. The as-fabricated metal patterns realized a high precision of sub-100 µm with desirable mechanical stability, washability, and permeability. Moreover, such controllable coating permeated inside the textile scaffold contributes to the significant performance enhancement of miniaturized devices and electronics integration through both sides of the textiles. As a proof-of-concept, a fully integrated in-textiles system for multiplexed sweat sensing was demonstrated. The proposed method opens up new possibilities for constructing multifunctional textile-based flexible electronics with reliable performance and wearing comfort.
RESUMEN
Multicolor-based visual immunosensor is a promising tool for rapid analysis without the use of bulky instruments. Herein, an anti-fenitrothion nanobody-alkaline phosphatase fusion protein (VHHjd8-ALP) was employed to develop a multicolor visual immunosensor (MVIS) and a ratiometric fluorescence MVIS (RFMVIS, respectively). After one-step competitive immunoassay, the VHHjd8-ALP bound to microplate catalyzed phenyl phosphate disodium salt (ArP) into phenol. Under high alkaline condition (pH 12), the phenol reduced KMnO4 to intermediate (K2MnO4) and further to MnO2 in alkaline condition (pH 12), accompanied by a visible color transition of purple-green-yellow, which can be used for semiquantitative visual analysis or qualitative detection by measuring RGB value. RFMVIS was proposed on the basis of MVIS to further improve sensitivity. The CdTe quantum dot and fluorescein were used as signal probes to develop the fluorescent immunosensor. The CdTe dots with red emission (644 nm) was quenched by oxidation of KMnO4, whereas the fluorescein with green emission (520 nm) remained constant, accompanied by a fluorescent color transition of green-yellow-red. By measuring the ratio of the fluorescence intensity (I644/I520), the ratiometric fluorescence immunosensor was developed for qualitative analysis. The two visual immunosensors were sensitive and simple, and they showed good accuracy and practicability in the recovery test, thus are ideal tools for rapid screening.
