A case of Aspergillus quadrilineatus pulmonary infection in China.

A 91-year-old Chinese male was hospitalized on June 28, 2021, due to a sudden fever. The patient had a long history of smoking, a 10-year history of type 2 diabetes, a family history of hypertension, and a history of coronary heart disease and lower extremity arterial occlusive disease. He presented with cough, sputum, and dry and wet rales in both lungs. A computed tomography scan revealed multiple infectious lesions in both lungs and a small pleural effusion. His procalcitonin level was 1.75 ng/mL. Microscopic examination of the sputum revealed abundant fungal spores and hyphae. Sputum culture results revealed Aspergillus quadrilineatus, which was confirmed by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight and internal transcribed spacer gene sequencing. Fungal drug sensitivity testing revealed that azoles (excluding fluconazole) and echinocandins exhibited high activity against Aspergillus quadrilineatus. The patient's condition improved following intravenous voriconazole treatment for 2 weeks, after which he was discharged. Subsequently, the patient was hospitalized six times for pulmonary infections, with the most recent hospitalization being on March 8, 2024. The symptoms improved, and the patient was discharged on March 15, 2024.

Comparative efficacy and safety of olanzapine and risperidone in the treatment of psychiatric and behavioral symptoms of Alzheimer's disease: Systematic review and meta-analysis.

OBJECTIVES: Olanzapine and risperidone have emerged as the most widely used drugs as short-term prescription in the treatment of behavioral disturbances in dementia. The present systematic review and meta-analysis was hence performed to investigate the effectiveness and safety profile of olanzapine and risperidone in the treatment of behavioral and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD), aiming to provide updated suggestion for clinical physicians and caregivers. DESIGN: Prospective controlled clinical studies were included, of which available data was extracted. Outcomes of BEHAVE-AD scores with the variation of grades, specific behaviors variables, as well as safety signals were pooled for the analysis by odds rates and weighted mean differences, respectively. DATA SOURCES: Medline, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), and WanFang. ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA: Prospective, controlled clinical studies, conducted to compare the effectiveness and safety profile of olanzapine and risperidone in the treatment of BPSD. DATA EXTRACTION AND SYNTHESIS: Interested data including baseline characteristics and necessary outcomes from the included studies were extracted independently by 2 investigators. BEHAVE-AD scale was adopted to assess the efficacy in the present study. All behaviors were evaluated at the time of the initiation of the treatment, as well as the completion of drugs courses. Adverse events were assessed with the criteria of Treatment Emergent Symptom Scale, or Coding Symbols for a Thesaurus of Adverse Reaction Terms dictionary. Weighted mean difference was used for the pooled analysis. RESULTS: A total of 2427 participants were included in the present meta-analysis. Comparative OR on response rate, and remarkable response rate between olanzapine and risperidone was 0.65 (95% CI: 0.51-0.84; P = .0008), and 0.62 (95% CI: 0.50-0.78; P < .0001), respectively. There were statistical differences observed by olanzapine on the improvement of variables including delusions (WMD, -1.83, 95% CI, -3.20, -0.47), and nighttime behavior disturbances (WMD, -1.99, 95% CI, -3.60, -0.38) when compared to risperidone. CONCLUSION: Our results suggested that olanzapine might be statistically superior to risperidone on the reduction of BPSD of Alzheimer's disease, especially in the relief of delusions and nighttime behavior disturbances. In addition, olanzapine was shown statistically lower risks of agitation, sleep disturbance, and extrapyramidal signs.

Polygala tenuifolia willd. Extract alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury in rats via TLR4/NF-κB pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome suppression.

BACKGROUND: Acute lung injury (ALI) has received considerable attention in the field of critical care as it can lead to high mortality rates. Polygala tenuifolia, a traditional Chinese medicine with strong expectorant properties, can be used to treat pneumonia. Owing to the complexity of its composition, the main active ingredient is not yet known. Thus, there is a need to identify its constituent compounds and mechanism of action in the treatment of ALI using advanced technological means. PURPOSE: We investigated the anti-inflammatory mechanism and constituent compounds with regard to the effect of P. tenuifolia Willd. extract (EPT) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI in vivo and in vitro. METHODS: The UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS technology was used to investigate the chemical profile of EPT. Network pharmacology was used to predict the targets and pathways of action of EPT in ALI, and molecular docking was used to validate the binding of polygalacic acid to Toll-like receptor (TLR) 4. The main compounds were determined using LC-MS. A rat model of LPS-induced ALI was established, and THP-1 cells were stimulated with LPS and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) to construct an in vitro model. Pathological changes were observed using hematoxylin and eosin staining, Wright-Giemsa staining, and immunohistochemistry. The expression of inflammatory factors (NE, MPO, Ly-6 G, TNF-α, IL-1ß, IL-6, and iNOS) was determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and western blotting. The LPS + ATP-induced inflammation model in THP-1 cells was used to verify the in vivo experimental results. RESULTS: Ninety-nine compounds were identified or tentatively deduced from EPT. Using network pharmacology, we found that TLR4/NF-κB may be a relevant pathway for the prevention and treatment of ALI by EPT. Polygalacic acid in EPT may be a potential active ingredient. EPT could alleviate LPS-induced histopathological lung damage and reduce the wet/dry lung weight ratio in the rat model of ALI. Moreover, EPT decreased the white blood cell and neutrophil counts in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and decreased the expression of genes and proteins of relevant inflammatory factors (NE, MPO, Ly-6 G, TNF-α, IL-1ß, IL-6, and iNOS) in lung tissues. It also increased the expression of endothelial-type nitric oxide synthase expression. Western blotting confirmed that EPT may affect TLR4/NF-κB and NLRP3 signaling pathways in vivo. Similar results were obtained in THP-1 cells. CONCLUSION: EPT reduced the release of inflammatory factors by affecting TLR4/NF-κB and NLRP3 signaling pathways, thereby attenuating the inflammatory response of ALI. Polygalacic acid is the likely compounds responsible for these effects.

A novel and simple method yields highly dispersed Au/TS-1 catalysts for enhanced propylene hydro-oxidation.

We demonstrate a simple method for preparing highly active Au/TS-1 catalysts for propylene hydro-oxidation, which involves sequentially impregnating HAuCl4 and Cs2CO3 solutions onto TS-1. The Au/TS-1 catalysts synthesized by this method exhibit high Au uptake efficiency (∼100%), high dispersion of Au nanoparticles and superior activity.

Neutrophil extracellular traps promote immune escape in hepatocellular carcinoma by up-regulating CD73 through Notch2.

Immune escape is the main reason that immunotherapy is ineffective in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Here, this study illustrates a pathway mediated by neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) that can promote immune escape of HCC. Mechanistically, we demonstrated that NETs up-regulated CD73 expression through activating Notch2 mediated nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) pathway, promoting regulatory T cells (Tregs) infiltration to mediate immune escape of HCC. In addition, we found the similar results in mouse HCC models by hydrodynamic plasmid transfection. The treatment of deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) could inhibit the action of NETs and improve the therapeutic effect of anti-programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1). In summary, our results revealed that targeting of NETs was a promising treatment to improve the therapeutic effect of anti-PD-1.

Electrochemical oxidative thioetherification of aldehyde hydrazones with thiophenols.

An electrochemically promoted oxidative dehydrogenation cross-coupling reaction between aldehyde hydrazones and thiophenols is demonstrated for the first time, which resulted in a variety of (Z)-thioetherified products in moderate to excellent yields. This strategy can be carried out under an air atmosphere, featuring scalability and excellent stereoselectivity. In addition, the transformation efficiently produces readily recyclable disulfide as a by-product with high yields, which significantly reduces the environmental pollution caused by thioetherification.

Genome-wide analysis of the MADS-box gene family of sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides ssp. sinensis) and their potential role in floral organ development.

Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides ssp. sinensis) is a deciduous shrub or small tree in the Elaeagnaceae family. It is dioecious, featuring distinct structures in female and male flowers. The MADS-box gene family plays a crucial role in flower development and differentiation of floral organs in plants. However, systematic information on the MADS-box family in sea buckthorn is currently lacking. This study presents a genome-wide survey and expression profile of the MADS-box family of sea buckthorn. We identified 92 MADS-box genes in the H. rhamnoides ssp. Sinensis genome. These genes are distributed across 12 chromosomes and classified into Type I (42 genes) and Type II (50 genes). Based on the FPKM values in the transcriptome data, the expression profiles of HrMADS genes in male and female flowers of sea buckthorn showed that most Type II genes had higher expression levels than Type I genes. This suggesting that Type II HrMADS may play a more significant role in sea buckthorn flower development. Using the phylogenetic relationship between sea buckthorn and Arabidopsis thaliana, the ABCDE model genes of sea buckthorn were identified and some ABCDE model-related genes were selected for qRT-PCR analysis in sea buckthorn flowers and floral organs. Four B-type genes may be involved in the identity determination of floral organs in male flowers, and D-type genes may be involved in pistil development. It is hypothesized that ABCDE model genes may play an important role in the identity of sea buckthorn floral organs. This study analyzed the role of MADS-box gene family in the development of flower organs in sea buckthorn, which provides an important theoretical basis for understanding the regulatory mechanism of sex differentiation in sea buckthorn.

Contralateral renal change in a unilateral ureteral obstruction rat model using intravoxel incoherent motion diffusion-weighted imaging.

OBJECTIVES: Most functional magnetic resonance research has primarily examined alterations in the affected kidney, often neglecting the contralateral kidney. Our study aims to investigate whether imaging parameters accurately depict changes in both the renal cortex and medulla in a unilateral ureteral obstruction rat model, thereby showcasing the utility of intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) in evaluating contralateral renal changes. METHODS: Six rats underwent MR scans and were subsequently sacrificed for baseline histological examination. Following the induction of left ureteral obstruction, 48 rats were scanned, and the histopathological examinations were conducted on days 3, 7, 10, 14, 21, 28, 35, and 42. The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), pure molecular diffusion (D), pseudodiffusion (D*), and perfusion fraction (f) values were measured using IVIM. RESULTS: On the 10th day of obstruction, both cortical and medullary ADC values differed significantly between the UUO10 group and the sham group (p < 0.01). The cortical D values showed statistically significant differences between UUO3 group and sham group (p < 0.01) but not among UUO groups at other time point. Additionally, the cortical and medullary f values were statistically significant between the UUO21 group and the sham group (p < 0.01). Especially, the cortical f values exhibited significant differences between the UUO21 group and the UUO groups with shorter obstruction time (at time point of 3, 7, 10, 14 day) (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: Significant hemodynamic alterations were observed in the contralateral kidney following renal obstruction. IVIM accurately captures changes in the unobstructed kidney. Particularly, the cortical f value exhibits the highest potential for assessing contralateral renal modifications.

A Cost-Effective Sulfide Solid Electrolyte Li7P3S7.5O3.5 with Low Density and Excellent Anode Compatibility.

The commercialization of all-solid-state Li batteries (ASSLBs) demands solid electrolytes with strong cost-competitiveness, low density (for enabling satisfactory energy densities), and decent anode compatibility (the need for cathode compatibility can be circumvented by the cathode coating techniques that are widely applied in sulfide-based ASSLBs). However, none of the reported oxide, sulfide, or chloride solid electrolytes meets these requirements simultaneously. Here, we design a Li7P3S7.5O3.5 (LPSO) solid electrolyte, which shows a combination of all the aforementioned characteristics. The synthesis of this material does not need the expensive Li2S, so the raw materials cost is only $14.42/kg, which, unlike most solid electrolytes, lies below the $50/kg threshold for commercialization. The density of LPSO is 1.70 g cm-3, considerably lower than those of the oxide (typically above 5 g cm-3) and chloride (around 2.5 g cm-3) solid electrolytes. Besides, LPSO also shows excellent anode compatibility. The Li | LPSO | Li cell cycles stably with a potential of ~50 mV under 0.1 mA cm-2 for over 4200 h at 25 °C, and the all-solid-state pouch cell with the Si anode shows a capacity retention of 89.29% after 200 cycles under 88.6 mA g-1 at 60 °C.

A Superparamagnetic Composite Hydrogel Scaffold as In Vivo Dynamic Monitorable Theranostic Platform for Osteoarthritis Regeneration.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent disease, characterized by subchondral fractures in its initial stages, which has no precise and specific treatment now. Here, a novel multifunctional scaffold is synthesized by photopolymerizing glycidyl methacrylate-modified hyaluronic acid (GMHA) as the matrix in the presence of hollow porous magnetic microspheres based on hydroxyapatite. In vivo subchondral bone repairing results demonstrate that the scaffold's meticulous design has most suitable properties for subchondral bone repair. The porous structure of inorganic particles within the scaffold facilitates efficient transport of loaded exogenous vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The Fe3O4 nanoparticles assembled in microspheres promote the osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and accelerate the new bone generation. These features enable the scaffold to exhibit favorable subchondral bone repair properties and attain high cartilage repair scores. The therapy results prove that the subchondral bone support considerably influences the upper cartilage repair process. Furthermore, magnetic resonance imaging monitoring demonstrates that Fe3O4 nanoparticles, which are gradually replaced by new bone during osteochondral defect repair, allow a noninvasive and radiation-free assessment to track the newborn bone during the OA repair process. The composite hydrogel scaffold (CHS) provides a versatile platform for biomedical applications in OA treatment.

Construction of Immune-Related Diagnostic Model for Latent Tuberculosis Infection and Active Tuberculosis.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the most infectious diseases caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M. tb), and the diagnosis of active tuberculosis (TB) and latent TB infection (LTBI) remains challenging. Methods: Gene expression files were downloaded from the GEO database to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs). The ssGSEA algorithm was applied to assess the immunological characteristics of patients with LTBI and TB. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis, protein-protein interaction network, and the cytoHubba plug-in of Cytoscape were used to identify the real hub genes. Finally, a diagnostic model was constructed using real hub genes and validated using a validation set. Results: Macrophages and natural killer cells were identified as important immune cells strongly associated with TB. In total, 726 mRNAs were identified as DEGs. MX1, STAT1, IFIH1, DDX58, and IRF7 were identified as real hub immune-related genes. The diagnostic model generated by the five real hub genes could distinguish active TB from healthy controls or patients with LTBI. Conclusion: Our study may provide implications for the diagnosis and drug development of M. tb infections.

Research and Analysis of Molecules such as CD28, CD45RA, CD45RO, CD38, HLA-DR, and CD57 on T Cells in Multiple Myeloma.

BACKGROUND: For many years it has been postulated that the immune system controls the progress of multiple myeloma (MM). However, the phenotypes of T cells in MM remain to be elucidated. In this study, we compared the phenotypes of T cells, which were obtained from the peripheral blood, in MM patients with those in healthy donors (HD). The expression of CCR7, CD57, CD28, HLA-DR, CD38, CD45RA, and CD45RO were assessed on T cells from MM patients and HDs using multicolor flow cytometry (MFC). METHODS: For this study, 17 newly diagnosed MM patients were selected, and 20 healthy people were selected as a control group. MFC was used to detect the markers on T cells. RESULTS: We detected significant increases in the expression levels of HLA-DR, CD38, and CD57on CD8+ T cells, significant decreases in the expression levels of CD28 and CD45RA on CD8+ T cells, and a decrease of CD4+ effec-tor T cells in MM patients, compared to the HD group. CONCLUSIONS: Our study shows that the accumulation of peripheral CD8+CD57+T cells, CD8+CD38high T cells, and CD8+HLA-DR+CD38high T cells is reflective of an ongoing antitumor T cell response and a progressive immune dysfunction in MM. During chemotherapy, the recovery of immune function can be monitored by detecting the proportion of activated molecules of T lymphocytes.

Effectiveness of eHealth interventions for HIV prevention, testing and management: An umbrella review.

BACKGROUND: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection has become a major contributor to the global burden of disease. Globally, the number of cases of HIV continues to increase. Electronic health (eHealth) interventions have emerged as promising tools to support disease self-management among people living with HIV. The purpose of this umbrella review is to systematically evaluate and summarize the evidence and results of published systematic reviews and meta-analyses on the effectiveness of eHealth interventions for HIV prevention, testing and management. METHODS: PubMed, Embase and the Cochrane Library were searched for reviews. The methodological quality of the included studies was assessed using AMSTAR-2. RESULTS: A total of 22 systematic reviews were included. The methodological quality of the reviews was low or critically low. EHealth interventions range from Internet, computer, or mobile interventions to websites, programs, applications, email, video, games, telemedicine, texting, and social media, or a combination of them. The majority of the reviews showed evidence of effectiveness (including increased participation in HIV management behaviours, successfully changed HIV testing behaviours, and reduced risk behaviours). EHealth interventions were effective in the short term. CONCLUSIONS: Ehealth interventions have the potential to improve HIV prevention, HIV testing and disease management. Due to the limitations of the low methodological quality of the currently available systematic reviews, more high-quality evidence is needed to develop clear and robust recommendations.

Nanoparticles as an antidote for poisoned gold single-atom catalysts in sustainable propylene epoxidation.

The development of sustainable and anti-poisoning single-atom catalysts (SACs) is essential for advancing their research from laboratory to industry. Here, we present a proof-of-concept study on the poisoning of Au SACs, and the antidote of Au nanoparticles (NPs), with trace addition shown to reinforce and sustain propylene epoxidation. Multiple characterizations, kinetics investigations, and multiscale simulations reveal that Au SACs display remarkable epoxidation activity at a low propylene coverage, but become poisoned at higher coverages. Interestingly, Au NPs can synergistically cooperate with Au SACs by providing distinct active sites required for H2/O2 and C3H6 activations, as well as hydroperoxyl radical to restore poisoned SACs. The difference in reaction order between C3H6 and H2 (nC3H6-nH2) is identified as the descriptor for establishing the volcano curves, which can be fine-tuned by the intimacy and composition of SACs and NPs to achieve a rate-matching scenario for the formation, transfer, and consumption of hydroperoxyl. Consequently, only trace addition of Au NPs antidote (0.3% ratio of SACs) stimulates significant improvements in propylene oxide formation rate, selectivity, and H2 efficiency compared to SACs alone, offering a 56-fold, 3-fold, and 22-fold increase, respectively, whose performances can be maintained for 150 h.

Disease-induced changes in bacterial and fungal communities from plant below- and aboveground compartments.

The plant microbes are an integral part of the host and play fundamental roles in plant growth and health. There is evidence indicating that plants have the ability to attract beneficial microorganisms through their roots in order to defend against pathogens. However, the mechanisms of plant microbial community assembly from below- to aboveground compartments under pathogen infection remain unclear. In this study, we investigated the bacterial and fungal communities in bulk soil, rhizosphere soil, root, stem, and leaf of both healthy and infected (Potato virus Y disease, PVY) plants. The results indicated that bacterial and fungal communities showed different recruitment strategies in plant organs. The number and abundance of shared bacterial ASVs between bulk and rhizosphere soils decreased with ascending migration from below- to aboveground compartments, while the number and abundance of fungal ASVs showed no obvious changes. Field type, plant compartments, and PVY infection all affected the diversity and structures of microbial community, with stronger effects observed in the bacterial community than the fungal community. Furthermore, PVY infection, rhizosphere soil pH, and water content (WC) contributed more to the assembly of the bacterial community than the fungal community. The analysis of microbial networks revealed that the bacterial communities were more sensitive to PVY infection than the fungal communities, as evidenced by the lower network stability of the bacterial community, which was characterized by a higher proportion of positive edges. PVY infection further increased the bacterial network stability and decreased the fungal network stability. These findings advance our understanding of how microbes respond to pathogen infections and provide a rationale and theoretical basis for biocontrol technology in promoting sustainable agriculture. KEY POINTS: • Different recruitment strategies between plant bacterial and fungal communities. • Bacterial community was more sensitive to PVY infection than fungal community. • pH and WC drove the microbial community assembly under PVY infection.

CCDC28A deficiency causes sperm head defects, reduced sperm motility and male infertility in mice.

Mature spermatozoa with normal morphology and motility are essential for male reproduction. The epididymis has an important role in the proper maturation and function of spermatozoa for fertilization. However, factors related to the processes involved in spermatozoa modifications are still unclear. Here we demonstrated that CCDC28A, a member of the CCDC family proteins, is highly expressed in testes and the CCDC28A deletion leads to male infertility. We found CCDC28A deletion had a mild effect on spermatogenesis. And epididymal sperm collected from Ccdc28a-/- mice showed bent sperm heads, acrosomal defects, reduced motility and decreased in vitro fertilization competence whereas their axoneme, outer dense fibers, and fibrous sheath were all normal. Furthermore, we found that CCDC28A interacted with sperm acrosome membrane-associated protein 1 (SPACA1) and glycogen synthase kinase 3a (GSK3A), and deficiencies in both proteins in mice led to bent heads and abnormal acrosomes, respectively. Altogether, our results reveal the essential role of CCDC28A in regulating sperm morphology and motility and suggesting a potential marker for male infertility.

Rhizosphere microbial community enrichment processes in healthy and diseased plants: implications of soil properties on biomarkers.

Plant health states may influence the distribution of rhizosphere microorganisms, which regulate plant growth and development. In this study, the response of rhizosphere bacteria and fungi of healthy and diseased plants compared to bulk microbes was analyzed using high-throughput sequencing. Plant adaptation strategies of plants under potato virus Y (PVY) infection have been studied from a microbial perspective. The diversity and community structure of bacteria and fungi varied between bulk and rhizosphere soils, but not between healthy and diseased rhizosphere soils. A LEfSe analysis revealed the significant differences between different treatments on bacterial and fungal community compositions and identified Roseiflexaceae, Sphingomonas, and Sphingobium as the bacterial biomarkers of bulk (BCK), healthy rhizosphere (BHS), and diseased rhizosphere (BIS) soils, respectively; Rhodotorula and Ascomycota_unidentified_1_1 were identified as the fungal biomarkers of bulk (FCK) and healthy rhizosphere (FHS) soils. Bacterial networks were found to be more complex and compact than fungal networks and revealed the roles of biomarkers as network keystone taxa. PVY infection further increased the connectedness among microbial taxa to improve rhizosphere microbial community stability and resistance to environmental stress. Additionally, water content (WC) played an apparent influence on bacterial community structure and diversity, and pH showed significant effects on fungal community diversity. WC and pH greatly affected the biomarkers of bacterial rhizosphere communities, whereas the biomarkers of bulk bacterial communities were significantly affected by soil nutrients, especially for Sphingobium. Overall, the rhizosphere microbial community enrichment processes were different between healthy and diseased plants by changing the community compositions and identifying different biomarkers. These findings provide insight into the assemblage of rhizosphere microbial communities and soil physicochemical properties, which contributes to a deeper understanding of the establishment of an artificial core root microbiota to facilitate plant growth and bolstering resistance mechanisms. This knowledge contributes to a deeper understanding of the establishment of an artificial core root microbiota, thereby facilitating plant growth and bolstering resistance mechanisms.

Development of a "Rigid-Flexible" Structure at the Interface Through Aramid Nanofibers@MXene to Enhance Mechanical Properties of Carbon Fiber/Polyamide Composites.

With the increasing development of nanomaterials, the construction of multiscale nanostructured interphase has emerged as a viable technique to reinforce carbon fiber-reinforced polymer composites. Here, "flexible" aramid nanofibers (ANFs) were first introduced on the surface of carbon fibers (CF) by electrophoretic deposition (EPD), and then "rigid" MXene sheets were grafted by ultrasonic impregnation. This feasible two-step treatment introduces a hierarchical "rigid-flexible" structure at the CF/polyamide (PA) interface. Results showed that this "rigid-flexible" multilayer structure improved the roughness, chemical bonding, mechanical interlocking, and wettability of CF/PA composites. At the same time, the modulus variation between the fiber and the matrix is significantly smoothed due to the increased thickness of the interfacial layer, increasing the payload transfer from the PA matrix to the fiber and decreasing the stress concentration. Compared to the desized CF, the interlaminar shear strength (ILSS) and tensile strength of the modified CF-ANF@MX0.2/PA composite increased by 50.02 and 36.11%, respectively. This innovative interfacial design and feasible treatment method facilitate the construction of firmly interacting interfacial layers in CF/PA composites, offering broad prospects for the production of high-performance CF/PA composites.
