Unravelling the Complex LiOH-Based Cathode Chemistry in Lithium-Oxygen Batteries.

The LiOH-based cathode chemistry has demonstrated potential for high-energy Li-O2 batteries. However, the understanding of such complex chemistry remains incomplete. Herein, we use the combined experimental methods with ab initio calculations to study LiOH chemistry. We provide a unified reaction mechanism for LiOH formation during discharge via net 4 e- oxygen reduction, in which Li2 O2 acts as intermediate in low water-content electrolyte but LiHO2 as intermediate in high water-content electrolyte. Besides, LiOH decomposes via 1 e- oxidation during charge, generating surface-reactive hydroxyl species that degrade organic electrolytes and generate protons. These protons lead to early removal of LiOH, followed by a new high-potential charge plateau (1 e- water oxidation). At following cycles, these accumulated protons lead to a new high-potential discharge plateau, corresponding to water formation. Our findings shed light on understanding of 4 e- cathode chemistries in metal-air batteries.

A Single-Atom Fe-N-C Catalyst with Ultrahigh Utilization of Active Sites for Efficient Oxygen Reduction.

Fe-N-C single-atom catalysts (SACs) are emerging as a promising class of electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) to replace Pt-based catalysts. However, due to the limited loading of Fe for SACs and the inaccessibility of internal active sites, only a small portion of the sites near the external surface are able to contribute to the ORR activity. Here, this work reports a metal-organic framework-derived Fe-N-C SAC with a hierarchically porous and concave nanoarchitecture prepared through a facile but effective strategy, which exhibits superior electrocatalytic ORR activity with a half-wave potential of 0.926 V (vs RHE) in alkaline media and 0.8 V (vs RHE) in acidic media while maintaining excellent stability. The superior ORR activity of the as-designed catalyst stems from the unique architecture, where the hierarchically porous architecture contains micropores as Fe SAC anchoring sites, meso-/macro-pores as accessible channels, and concave shell for increasing external surface area. The unique architecture has dramatically enhanced the utilization of previously blocked internal active sites, as confirmed by a high turnover frequency of 3.37 s-1 and operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy analysis with a distinct shift of adsorption edge.

Effect of suicide prevention law and media guidelines on copycat suicide of general population following celebrity suicides in South Korea, 2005-2017.

OBJECTIVE: To prevent copycat suicides following media reporting of celebrity suicides, the South Korean government enacted a 'suicide prevention law' in 2012 and revised the media guidelines for suicide reporting in 2013. This study examined how these two regulatory measures affected suicide trends among the general population in South Korea. METHODS: We analyzed the individual effect estimates for the general population within 30 days following the media report of 24 celebrity suicides using multivariate negative binomial regression. We performed a meta-analysis to compute the pooled rate ratios of the two regulations. We examined the trends in daily suicides by month during three time intervals before and after enactment using an autoregressive model and tested their significance using a piecewise linear regression. RESULTS: Total suicides increased by 6.27 daily during the 30-day period after celebrity suicides. Compared with the 30 days prior to the reports on the suicide of 24 celebrities, the number of suicidal deaths in the general population increased by 13% during the 30 days after the reports were announced (pooled rate ratio 1.13, 95% confidence interval: 0.06-0.18; p < 0.001). There was a significant downward trend in the average daily suicide deaths, and no significant increase in suicide rates, after the enactment of the suicide prevention law (p < 0.001) and revision of the media guidelines (p = 0.014). CONCLUSIONS: Suicide prevention and media guidelines were effective in reducing the effect of celebrity suicides. In addition to regulating media reporting of celebrity suicide, measures are needed to address viral republication on social media and to prevent suicide among entertainers.

High reliability and accuracy of dynamic magnetic resonance imaging in the diagnosis of cervical Spondylotic myelopathy: a multicenter study.

BACKGROUND: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a critical condition that results in significant neurologic deterioration. An accurate diagnosis is essential for determining its outcome and prognosis. The pathology is strongly associated with dynamic factors; therefore, dynamic magnetic resonance (MR) image could be crucial to accurately detect CSM. However, very few studies have evaluated the reliability and accuracy of dynamic MR in CSM. In this study, we aimed to compare intra- and interobserver reliabilities and accuracy of dynamic MR in detecting CSM using sagittal MR scans of the neck in the flexed, neutral, and extended position. METHODS: Out of 131 patients who underwent surgical treatments for CSM, 107 were enrolled in this study. The patient underwent three-types of sagittal MR scans that were obtained separately in different neck positions (neutral, flexion, and extension postures). The MR scans of the cervical spine were evaluated independently by three spine professionals, on the basis of tabled questionnaires. For accuracy, we performed a receiver operator characteristic analysis, and the overall discriminating ability of each method was measured by calculating the area under the ROC curve. The Cohen's kappa coefficient and the Fleiss-generalized kappa coefficient was used to the inter- and intra-observer reliabilities. RESULTS: The intraobserver reliability (using the Cohen's kappa coefficient) and interobserver reliability (using the Fless kappa coefficient) were respectively 0.64 and 0.52 for the neutral sagittal MR. The accuracy of neutral sagittal MR in detecting CSM was 0.735 (95% CI, 0.720 to 0.741) while that of extension sagittal MRI was 0.932 (96% CI, 0.921 to 0.948). CONCLUSIONS: Dynamic MR significantly showed better diagnostic reliability and accuracy in detecting CSM compared to conventional MR. In particular, extension MR scans could provide a more accurate diagnosis than other images.

MiR-1208 Increases the Sensitivity to Cisplatin by Targeting TBCK in Renal Cancer Cells.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) can be used to target a variety of human malignancies by targeting their oncogenes or tumor suppressor genes. Recent evidence has shown that miRNA-1208 (miR-1208) was rarely expressed in a variety of cancer cells, suggesting the possibility that miR-1208 functions as a tumor suppressor gene. Herein, ectopic expression of miR-1208 induced the accumulation of sub-G1 populations and the cleavage of procaspase-3 and PARP, which could be prevented by pre-treatment with the pan-caspase inhibitor, Z-VAD. In addition, miR-1208 increased the susceptibility to cisplatin and TRAIL in Caki-1 cells. Luciferase reporter assay results showed that miR-1208 negatively regulates TBC1 domain containing kinase (TBCK) expression by binding to the miR-1208 binding sites in the 3'-untranslated region of TBCK. In addition, miR-1208 specifically repressed TBCK expression at the transcriptional level. In contrast, inhibition of endogenous miR-1208 by anti-miRs resulted in an increase in TBCK expression. Downregulation of TBCK induced by TBCK-specific siRNAs increased susceptibility to cisplatin and TRAIL. These findings suggest that miR-1208 acts as a tumor suppressor and targets TBCK directly, thus possessing great potential for use in renal cancer therapy.

Inhibitory effect of celastrol on adipogenic differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells.

Control of adipogenesis in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) offers enormous potential for management of obesity- and aging-related diseases. Celastrol, the traditional Chinese medicine extracted from Tripterygium wilfordi, exhibits anti-obesity effects in in vitro and in vivo murine models. This study describes how celastrol affects multilineage differentiation potential of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs). We performed in vitro adipogenic differentiation of hADSCs and investigated how celastrol-induced lipid accumulation and expression of adipocyte differentiation markers varied with dose, duration, and donor age. In addition, we assessed the effect of celastrol on osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation of hADSCs. During adipogenic induction of hADSCs, the inhibitory effect of celastrol on lipid accumulation and adipogenesis depended on dose, duration, time of administration, and individual donor. Inhibition was mediated by proliferator-activated receptor-γ (PPARG) and CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein alpha (CEBPA). Celastrol also suppressed differentiation of hADSCs into the osteogenic and chondrogenic lineages. Celastrol plays a regulatory role in multilineage differentiation of human MSCs. Our findings provide important insights regarding management of obesity and stem cell therapy.

Prognostic Impact of Left Atrial Minimal Volume on Clinical Outcome in Patients with Non-Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.

Maximal left atrial volume (LAVmax) has been suggested to be an important indicator of left ventricular (LV) diastolic function and a prognosticator in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, LAVmax can be influenced by LV longitudinal systolic function, which causes systolic descent of the mitral plane. We investigated the prognostic role of LAVmin in patients with HCM and tested if LAVmin is better than LAVmax in predicting clinical outcome in these patients. A total of 167 consecutive patients with HCM were enrolled (age = 64.7 ± 13.5 years, male: female = 120:47). Clinical parameters and conventional echocardiographic measurement including tissue Doppler measurement were evaluated. Left atrial maximal and minimal volumes were measured just before mitral valve opening and at mitral valve closure respectively using the biplane disk method. The relationship between LAVmin and the clinical outcome of hospitalization for heart failure (HF), stroke or all-cause mortality was evaluated. During a median follow-up of 25.0 ± 17.8 months, the primary end point of HF hospitalization, stroke or death occurred in 35 patients (21%). Indexed LAVmin was predictive of HF, stroke or death after adjustment for age, diabetes, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, LV ejection fraction, and E/e'in a multivariate analysis (P = 0.001). The model including indexed LAVmin was superior to the model including indexed LAVmax in predicting a worse outcome in patients with HCM (P = 0.02). In conclusion, LAVmin was independently associated with increased risk of HF, stroke, or mortality in patients with HCM and was superior to LAVmax in predicting clinical outcome in this population.

Increased TRPC5 glutathionylation contributes to striatal neuron loss in Huntington's disease.

Aberrant glutathione or Ca(2+) homeostasis due to oxidative stress is associated with the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. The Ca(2+)-permeable transient receptor potential cation (TRPC) channel is predominantly expressed in the brain, which is sensitive to oxidative stress. However, the role of the TRPC channel in neurodegeneration is not known. Here, we report a mechanism of TRPC5 activation by oxidants and the effect of glutathionylated TRPC5 on striatal neurons in Huntington's disease. Intracellular oxidized glutathione leads to TRPC5 activation via TRPC5 S-glutathionylation at Cys176/Cys178 residues. The oxidized glutathione-activated TRPC5-like current results in a sustained increase in cytosolic Ca(2+), activated calmodulin-dependent protein kinase and the calpain-caspase pathway, ultimately inducing striatal neuronal cell death. We observed an abnormal glutathione pool indicative of an oxidized state in the striatum of Huntington's disease transgenic (YAC128) mice. Increased levels of endogenous TRPC5 S-glutathionylation were observed in the striatum in both transgenic mice and patients with Huntington's disease. Both knockdown and inhibition of TRPC5 significantly attenuated oxidation-induced striatal neuronal cell death. Moreover, a TRPC5 blocker improved rearing behaviour in Huntington's disease transgenic mice and motor behavioural symptoms in littermate control mice by increasing striatal neuron survival. Notably, low levels of TRPC1 increased the formation of TRPC5 homotetramer, a highly Ca(2+)-permeable channel, and stimulated Ca(2+)-dependent apoptosis in Huntington's disease cells (STHdh(Q111/111)). Taken together, these novel findings indicate that increased TRPC5 S-glutathionylation by oxidative stress and decreased TRPC1 expression contribute to neuronal damage in the striatum and may underlie neurodegeneration in Huntington's disease.

Dioscin induces caspase-independent apoptosis through activation of apoptosis-inducing factor in breast cancer cells.

Dioscin, a saponin extracted from the roots of Polygonatum zanlanscianense, shows several bioactivities such as antitumor, antifungal, and antiviral properties. Although, dioscin is already known to induce cell death in variety cancer cells, the molecular basis for dioscin-induced cell death was not definitely known in cancer cells. In this study, we found that dioscin treatment induced cell death in dose-dependent manner in breast cancer cells such as MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-453, and T47D cells. Dioscin decreased expressions of Bcl-2 and cIAP-1 proteins, which were down-regulated at the transcriptional level. Conversely, Mcl-1 protein level was down-regulated by facilitating ubiquitin/proteasome-mediated Mcl-1 degradation in dioscin-treated cells. Pretreatment with z-VAD fails to attenuate dioscin-induced cell death as well as caspase-mediated events such as cleavages of procaspase-3 and PARP. In addition, dioscin treatment increased the population of annexin V positive cells and induced DNA fragmentation in a dose-dependent manner in MDA-MB-231 cells. Furthermore, apoptosis inducing factor (AIF) was released from the mitochondria and translocated to the nucleus. Suppression in AIF expression by siRNA reduced dioscin-induced apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells. Taken together, our results demonstrate that dioscin-induced cell death was mediated via AIF-facilitating caspase-independent pathway as well as down-regulating anti-apoptotic proteins such as Bcl-2, cIAP-1, and Mcl-1 in breast cancer cells.

Enhanced dielectric performance in polymer composite films with carbon nanotube-reduced graphene oxide hybrid filler.

The electrical conductivity and the specific surface area of conductive fillers in conductor-insulator composite films can drastically improve the dielectric performance of those films through changing their polarization density by interfacial polarization. We have made a polymer composite film with a hybrid conductive filler material made of carbon nanotubes grown onto reduced graphene oxide platelets (rG-O/CNT). We report the effect of the rG-O/CNT hybrid filler on the dielectric performance of the composite film. The composite film had a dielectric constant of 32 with a dielectric loss of 0.051 at 0.062 wt% rG-O/CNT filler and 100 Hz, while the neat polymer film gave a dielectric constant of 15 with a dielectric loss of 0.036. This is attributed to the increased electrical conductivity and specific surface area of the rG-O/CNT hybrid filler, which results in an increase in interfacial polarization density between the hybrid filler and the polymer.

Utilizing stem cell-secreted molecules as a versatile toolbox for skin regenerative medicine.

Stem cells are recognized as an important target and tool in regenerative engineering. In this study, we explored the feasibility of engineering amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal stem cell-secreted molecules (afMSC-SMs) as a versatile bioactive material for skin regenerative medicine applications in a time- and cost-efficient and straightforward manner. afMSC-SMs, obtained in powder form through ethanol precipitation, effectively contributed to preserving the self-renewal capacity and differentiation potential of primary human keratinocytes (pKCs) in a xeno-free environment, offering a potential alternative to traditional culture methods for their long-term in vitro expansion, and allowed them to reconstitute a fully stratified epithelium sheet on human dermal fibroblasts. Furthermore, we demonstrated the flexibility of afMSC-SMs in wound healing and hair regrowth through injectable hydrogel and nanogel-mediated transdermal delivery systems, respectively, expanding the pool of regenerative applications. This cell-free approach may offer several potential advantages, including streamlined manufacturing processes, scalability, controlled formulation, longer shelf lives, and mitigation of risks associated with living cell transplantation. Accordingly, afMSC-SMs could serve as a promising therapeutic toolbox for advancing cell-free regenerative medicine, simplifying their broad applicability in various clinical settings.

The Application of Virtual Reality in Shoulder Surgery Rehabilitation.

To achieve a positive functional prognosis in orthopedic surgery, particularly in shoulder surgeries, effective rehabilitation is essential. Recently, there has been growing interest in the use of virtual reality (VR) in the field of orthopedics, particularly for preoperative education and training, as well as clinical and home-based rehabilitation. This report describes the process of developing an application utilizing Meta Quest 2 VR technology (Meta, CA, USA) for rehabilitation after shoulder surgery. This application assists patients in performing postoperative exercises at home by wearing VR equipment tailored to their postoperative weeks. The advantages of VR rehabilitation lie in overcoming the limitations of traditional rehabilitation methods and providing patients with a better rehabilitation experience. Moreover, automating the rehabilitation process and reducing patients' visits to clinics can lead to cost savings. This report raises expectations for the potential and scalability of VR utilization, extending beyond orthopedics to other fields. In addition, it anticipates that with better feedback and motivation, the rehabilitation effects for patients can be further enhanced.

Beyond One-Size-Fits-All: Tailoring Teicoplanin Regimens for Normal Renal Function Patients Using Population Pharmacokinetics and Monte Carlo Simulation.

In patients with normal renal function, significant teicoplanin dose adjustments are often necessary. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK) model for teicoplanin in healthy adults and use it to recommend optimal dosage regimens for patients with normal renal function. PK samples were obtained from 12 subjects and analyzed using a population approach. The derived parameters informed Monte Carlo simulations for dosing recommendations. The PK profile was best described using a three-compartment model, in which the estimated glomerular filtration rate calculated via the CKD-EPI equation and adjusted for body surface area was identified as a significant covariate affecting total clearance. For pathogens with a minimum inhibitory concentration of 1 mg/L, a loading dose (LD) of 14 mg/kg administered every 12 h for four doses, followed by a maintenance dose (MD) of 16 mg/kg administered every 24 h, is recommended. These findings indicate the need for dosage adjustments, such as increasing the LD and MD or decreasing the dosing interval of MD in patients with normal renal function. Because of the long half-life of teicoplanin and the requirement for long-term administration, therapeutic drug monitoring at strategic intervals is important to avoid nephrotoxicity associated with elevated trough concentrations.

Intrapulmonary and Systemic Pharmacokinetics of Colistin Following Nebulization of Low-Dose Colistimethate Sodium in Patients with Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia Caused by Carbapenem-Resistant Acinetobacter baumannii.

Colistimethate sodium (CMS) nebulization is associated with reduced systemic toxicity compared to intravenous injection, with potentially enhanced clinical efficacy. This study aimed to assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) properties of colistin during low-dose CMS nebulization in patients with ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) caused by carbapenem-resistant Acinetobacter baumannii. A nonlinear mixed-effects modeling approach was applied to develop population PK models for colistin in both epithelial lining fluid (ELF) and plasma. Twenty patients participated, and 80 ELF and 100 plasma samples were used for model development. Median colistin concentrations measured in ELF were 614-fold, 408-fold, and 250-fold higher than in plasma at 1, 3, and 5 h, respectively. Time courses in both ELF and plasma were best described by a one-compartment model with a Weibull absorption process. When the final model was simulated, the maximum free concentration and area under the free colistin concentration-time curve at steady state over 24 h in the plasma were approximately 1/90 and 1/50 of the corresponding values in ELF at steady state, respectively. For an A. baumannii MIC of 1 mg/L, inhaling 75 mg of CMS at 6 h intervals was deemed appropriate, with dose adjustments needed for MICs exceeding 2 mg/L. Using a nebulizer for CMS resulted in a notably higher exposure of colistin in the ELF than plasma, indicating the potential of nebulization to reduce systemic toxicity while effectively treating VAP.

A software tool for at-home measurement of sensorimotor adaptation.

Sensorimotor adaptation is traditionally studied in well-controlled laboratory settings with specialized equipment. However, recent public health concerns such as the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as a desire to recruit a more diverse study population, have led the motor control community to consider at-home study designs. At-home motor control experiments are still rare because of the requirement to write software that can be easily used by anyone on any platform. To this end, we developed software that runs locally on a personal computer. The software provides audiovisual instructions and measures the ability of the subject to control the cursor in the context of visuomotor perturbations. We tested the software on a group of at-home participants and asked whether the adaptation principles inferred from in-lab measurements were reproducible in the at-home setting. For example, we manipulated the perturbations to test whether there were changes in adaptation rates (savings and interference), whether adaptation was associated with multiple timescales of memory (spontaneous recovery), and whether we could selectively suppress subconscious learning (delayed feedback, perturbation variability) or explicit strategies (limited reaction time). We found remarkable similarity between in-lab and at-home behaviors across these experimental conditions. Thus, we developed a software tool that can be used by research teams with little or no programming experience to study mechanisms of adaptation in an at-home setting.

Suppression of TBCK enhances TRAIL-mediated apoptosis by causing the inactivation of the akt signaling pathway in human renal carcinoma Caki-1 cells.

BACKGROUND: TBC1 domain-containing kinase (TBCK) protein functions as a growth suppressor in certain cell types and as a tumor promoter in others. Although TBCK knockdown increases the responsiveness of cancer cells to anticancer drugs, the detailed mechanisms by which TBCK knockdown increases susceptibility to anticancer drugs remain unknown. OBJECTIVE: This study analyzed the role of TBCK in sensitivities to tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) and doxorubicin in human renal cancer cells. METHODS: Flow cytometry was employed to evaluate the extent of apoptosis. Western blotting, transient transfection, and lentiviral infection techniques were conducted to investigate the impact of TBCK on apoptosis-related protein expression and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK). RESULTS: TBCK knockdown in renal cancer cells inhibits ERK and Akt signaling pathways and increases TRAIL and doxorubicin sensitivity. In TBCK-knockdown Caki-1 cells, ERK and Akt phosphorylation was suppressed compared to control cell lines, and TRAIL and doxorubicin sensitivities were increased in these cells. In addition, the phosphorylation of PDK1 was suppressed in TBCK-suppressed cells, indicating that TBCK may be involved in the PDK1 and Akt signaling pathways. The introduction of dominantly active Akt into TBCK-suppressed cells restored their sensitivity to TRAIL. In addition, TBCK downregulation enhanced TRAIL sensitivity in different renal cancer cell lines. CONCLUSIONS: These data suggest that TBCK could potentially have a crucial function in influencing the effects of anti-cancer drugs including TRAIL by modulating the signaling pathway involving Akt and PDK1 in human renal cancer cells.

Epithelial Yap/Taz are required for functional alveolar regeneration following acute lung injury.

A hallmark of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and other interstitial lung diseases is dysregulated repair of the alveolar epithelium. The Hippo pathway effector transcription factors YAP and TAZ are implicated as essential for type 1 and type 2 alveolar epithelial cell (AT1 and AT2) differentiation in the developing lung, yet aberrant activation of YAP/TAZ is a prominent feature of the dysregulated alveolar epithelium in IPF. In these studies, we sought to define the functional role of YAP/TAZ activity during alveolar regeneration. We demonstrated that Yap and Taz were normally activated in AT2 cells shortly after injury, and deletion of Yap/Taz in AT2 cells led to pathologic alveolar remodeling, failure of AT2-to-AT1 cell differentiation, increased collagen deposition, exaggerated neutrophilic inflammation, and increased mortality following injury induced by a single dose of bleomycin. Loss of Yap/Taz activity prior to an LPS injury prevented AT1 cell regeneration, led to intraalveolar collagen deposition, and resulted in persistent innate inflammation. These findings establish that AT2 cell Yap/Taz activity is essential for functional alveolar epithelial repair and prevention of fibrotic remodeling.

One-pot in situ fabrication of stable nanocaterpillars directly from polyacetylene diblock copolymers synthesized by mild ring-opening metathesis polymerization.

We report a direct one-pot route for the preparation of supramolecules from simple polyacetylene diblock copolymers synthesized by mild ring-opening metathesis polymerization of cyclooctatetraene. This in situ nanoparticlization of conjugated polymer (INCP) approach is advantageous over conventional self-assembly processes because this method does not require any tedious postsynthetic treatments. Also, this direct approach provides intriguing supramolecules with a unique nanostructure resembling a caterpillar. Furthermore, the new supramolecules are highly stable adducts because the polyacetylene core block provides an exceptionally strong driving force for the self-assembly. Even though pristine polyacetylene is unstable in air, the polyacetylene segment in the nanocaterpillar is very stable because it is protected within the shell of the supramolecule.

Competition between parallel sensorimotor learning systems.

Sensorimotor learning is supported by at least two parallel systems: a strategic process that benefits from explicit knowledge and an implicit process that adapts subconsciously. How do these systems interact? Does one system's contributions suppress the other, or do they operate independently? Here, we illustrate that during reaching, implicit and explicit systems both learn from visual target errors. This shared error leads to competition such that an increase in the explicit system's response siphons away resources that are needed for implicit adaptation, thus reducing its learning. As a result, steady-state implicit learning can vary across experimental conditions, due to changes in strategy. Furthermore, strategies can mask changes in implicit learning properties, such as its error sensitivity. These ideas, however, become more complex in conditions where subjects adapt using multiple visual landmarks, a situation which introduces learning from sensory prediction errors in addition to target errors. These two types of implicit errors can oppose each other, leading to another type of competition. Thus, during sensorimotor adaptation, implicit and explicit learning systems compete for a common resource: error.
