In this work, a novel dual-doping strategy involving Al^(3+) and Zr^(4+) ions has been employed to refine the atomic structure of LMO's spinel framework. The resultant dual-doped material, Li_(1.06)Mn_(1.97)Zr_(0.01)Al_(0.02)O_(4), exhibits enhanced electrochemical properties, boasting a discharge capacity of 124.9 m Ah/g at a rate of 0.1 C. Furthermore, the formation of stronger Al–O and Zr–O bonds contributes to the stabilization of the delithiated LMO structure. Impressively, 97.7%of its initial capacity is retained after 100 cycles at a 5 C rate. Additionally, enhancements in rate performance and hightemperature cycling stability have also been observed. This study underscores the potential of Al^(3+) and Zr^(4+) dual-doping as a promising approach to enhance LMO cathodes, providing a scalable and efficient means of improving the performance of lithium manganese oxide cathode materials through the incorporation of multiple ions.展开更多

Aurora B, a key mitotic regulator, has been reported to be involved in the progression of various tumors, yet its role in CCA is still unclarified.Methods: Human CCA tissues and murine spontaneous CCA models were used to assess Aurora B expression in CCA. A loss-of-function model was constructed in CCA cells to determine the role of Aurora B in CCA progression. Subcutaneous and liver orthotopic xenograft models were used to assess the therapeutic potential of Aurora B inhibitors in CCA.Results: In murine spontaneous CCA models, Aurora B was significantly upregulated. Elevated Aurora B expression was also observed in 62.3% of human specimens in our validation cohort(143 CCA specimens), and high Aurora B expression was positively correlated with pathological parameters of tumors and poor survival. Knockdown of Aurora B by siRNA and heteroduplex oligonucleotide(HDO)or an Aurora B kinase inhibitor(AZD1152) significantly suppressed CCA progression via G2/M arrest induction. An interaction between Aurora B and c-Myc was found in CCA cells. Targeting Aurora B significantly reduced this interaction and accelerated the proteasomal degradation of c-Myc, suggesting that Aurora B promoted the malignant properties of CCA by stabilizing c-Myc. Furthermore, sequential application of AZD1152 or Aurora B HDO drastically improved the efficacy of gemcitabine in CCA.Conclusions: Aurora B plays an essential role in CCA progression by modulating c-Myc stability and represents a new target for treatment and chemosensitization in CCA.展开更多

The resultant dual-doped material, Li_(1.06)Mn_(1.97)Zr_(0.01)Al_(0.02)O_(4), exhibits enhanced electrochemical properties, boasting a discharge capacity of 124.9 m Ah/g at a rate of 0.1 C. Furthermore, the formation of stronger Al–O and Zr–O bonds contributes to the stabilization of the delithiated LMO structure. Impressively, 97.7%of its initial capacity is retained after 100 cycles at a 5 C rate. Additionally, enhancements in rate performance and hightemperature cycling stability have also been observed. This study underscores the potential of Al^(3+) and Zr^(4+) dual-doping as a promising approach to enhance LMO cathodes, providing a scalable and efficient means of improving the performance of lithium manganese oxide cathode materials through the incorporation of multiple ions.

文摘Research on supercontinuum sources on silicon has made significant progress in the past few decades.However,conventional approaches to broaden the spectral bandwidth often rely on complex and critical dispersion engineering by optimizing the core thickness or introducing the cladding with special materials and structures.We propose and demonstrate supercontinuum generation using long-periodgrating(LPG)waveguides on silicon with a C-band pump.The LPG waveguide is introduced for quasi-phase matching,and the generated supercontinuum spectrum is improved greatly with grating-induced dispersive waves.In addition,the demonstrated LPG waveguide shows a low propagation loss comparable with regular silicon photonic waveguides without gratings.In experiments,when using a 1550-nm 75-fs pulse pump with a pulse energy of 200 pJ,the supercontinuum spectrum generated with the present LPG waveguide shows an ultrabroad extent from 1150 to 2300 nm,which is much wider by 200 nm than that achieved by dispersionengineered uniform silicon photonic waveguides on the same chip.This provides a promising option for on-chip broadband light source for silicon photonic systems.

文摘Background:Inflammation,caused by prolonged hyperglycemia,plays a substantially more important part in the progression of diabetic peripheral neuropathy(DPN).Notably,the MAPK pathway that mediates the Nuclear Factor-kappa B(NF-κB)pathway contributes to inflammation-induced peripheral nerve damage,affecting cell survival.Juan Bi Tong Luo(JBTL),a traditional Chinese medicine(TCM),has demonstrated favorable results in alleviating pain and numbness in patients with DPN;however,whether JBTL exerts its effect through the MAPK mediating NF-κB pathway remains unclear.Methods:This study investigated whether JBTL modulates apoptosis in DPN models and Schwann cells cultured in 100 mM of glucose by MAPK/NF-κB.Results:The JBTL altered inflammation,reduced peripheral nerve tissue damage,and improved cell survival rates by down-regulating MAPK/NF-κB.Conclusion:Our findings demonstrate that the effect of JBTL on DPN is likely mediated by suppressing inflammation induced by the MAPK/NF-κB pathway,thus providing evidence for the clinical efficacy of JBTL in treating DPN.

文摘BACKGROUND Appendiceal intussusception is a pathological condition in which the appendix is inverted into the cecum,which may cause symptoms that resemble those of other gastrointestinal disorders and may induce intestinal obstruction.The rarity of this case presentation is the co-occurrence of appendiceal intussusception and cecal adenocarcinoma,a combination that to our knowledge has not previously been reported in the medical literature.This case provides new insights into the complexities of diagnosing and managing overlapping pathologies.CASE SUMMARY A 25-year-old woman presented with persistent periumbilical pain and bloody stools.An initial biopsy showed cecal cancer;however,subsequent colonoscopy and computed tomography findings raised the suspicion of appendiceal intussus-ception,which was later confirmed postoperatively.This unique case was charac-terized by a combination of intussusception and adenocarcinoma of the cecum.The intervention included a laparoscopic right hemicolectomy,which led to the histopathological diagnosis of mucinous adenocarcinoma with appendiceal intussusception.The patient recovered well postoperatively and was advised to initiate adjuvant chemotherapy.This case highlights not only the importance of considering appendiceal intussusception in the differential diagnosis,but also the possibility of appendicitis and the atypical presentation of neoplastic lesions.CONCLUSIONS Physicians should consider the possibility of appendiceal intussusception in cases of atypical appendicitis,particularly when associated with neoplastic presentation.

文摘The gastrointestinal tract is essential for food digestion,nutrient absorption,waste elimination,and microbial defense.Single-cell transcriptome profiling of the intestinal tract has greatly enriched our understanding of cellular diversity,functional heterogeneity,and their importance in intestinal tract development and disease.Although such profiling has been extensively conducted in humans and mice,the single-cell gene expression landscape of the pig cecum remains unexplored.Here,single-cell RNA sequencing was performed on 45572 cells obtained from seven cecal samples in pigs at four different developmental stages(days(D)30,42,150,and 730).Analysis revealed 12 major cell types and 38 subtypes,as well as their distinctive genes,transcription factors,and regulons,many of which were conserved in humans.An increase in the relative proportions of CD8^(+)T and Granzyme A(low expression)natural killer T cells(GZMA^(low)NKT)cells and a decrease in the relative proportions of epithelial stem cells,Tregs,RHEX^(+)T cells,and plasmacytoid dendritic cells(pDCs)were noted across the developmental stages.Moreover,the post-weaning period exhibited an up-regulation in mitochondrial genes,COX2 and ND2,as well as genes involved in immune activation in multiple cell types.Cell-cell crosstalk analysis indicated that IBP6^(+)fibroblasts were the main signal senders at D30,whereas IBP6^(−)fibroblasts assumed this role at the other stages.NKT cells established interactions with epithelial cells and IBP6^(+)fibroblasts in the D730 cecum through mediation of GZMA-F2RL1/F2RL2 pairs.This study provides valuable insights into cellular heterogeneity and function in the pig cecum at different development stages.

文摘Early growth response protein 1(Egr-1)triggers the transcription of many genes involved in cell growth,differentiation,synaptic plasticity,and neurogenesis.However,its mechanism in neuronal survival and degeneration is still poorly understood.This study demonstrated that Egr-1 was down-regulated at mRNA and protein levels in the central nervous system(CNS)of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis(EAE)mice.Egr-1 knockout exacerbated EAE progression in mice,as shown by increased disease severity and incidence;it also aggravated neuronal apoptosis,which was associated with weakened activation of the BDNF/TGFβ1/MAPK/Akt signaling pathways in the CNS of EAE mice.Consistently,Egr-1 siRNA promoted apoptosis but mitigated the activation of BDNF/TGFβ1/MAPK/Akt signaling in SH-SY5Y cells.Our results revealed that Egr-1 is a crucial regulator of neuronal survival in EAE by regulating TGFβ1-mediated signaling activation,implicating the important role of Egr-1 in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis as a potential novel therapy target.

文摘Background: Cholangiocarcinoma(CCA), a malignancy that arises from biliary epithelial cells, has a dismal prognosis, and few targeted therapies are available. Aurora B, a key mitotic regulator, has been reported to be involved in the progression of various tumors, yet its role in CCA is still unclarified.Methods: Human CCA tissues and murine spontaneous CCA models were used to assess Aurora B expression in CCA. A loss-of-function model was constructed in CCA cells to determine the role of Aurora B in CCA progression. Subcutaneous and liver orthotopic xenograft models were used to assess the therapeutic potential of Aurora B inhibitors in CCA.Results: In murine spontaneous CCA models, Aurora B was significantly upregulated. Elevated Aurora B expression was also observed in 62.3% of human specimens in our validation cohort(143 CCA specimens), and high Aurora B expression was positively correlated with pathological parameters of tumors and poor survival. Knockdown of Aurora B by siRNA and heteroduplex oligonucleotide(HDO)or an Aurora B kinase inhibitor(AZD1152) significantly suppressed CCA progression via G2/M arrest induction. An interaction between Aurora B and c-Myc was found in CCA cells. Targeting Aurora B significantly reduced this interaction and accelerated the proteasomal degradation of c-Myc, suggesting that Aurora B promoted the malignant properties of CCA by stabilizing c-Myc. Furthermore, sequential application of AZD1152 or Aurora B HDO drastically improved the efficacy of gemcitabine in CCA.Conclusions: Aurora B plays an essential role in CCA progression by modulating c-Myc stability and represents a new target for treatment and chemosensitization in CCA.

文摘Yarn-based flexible strain sensors with advantages in wearability and integrability have attracted wide at-tention.However,it is still a big challenge to achieve yarn-based strain sensors with a wide linear strain range,low hysteresis,and durability synchronously that can be used for full range detection of human body motions.Herein,a new structure,double-threaded conductive yarn with rhythmic strain distribu-tion,is reported to markedly widen the linear strain range of microcrack-based stretchable strain sensors.A new method of winding and thermally adhering hot-melt filaments on the surface of the elastic fiber is used to achieve double-threaded yarn(DTY)with rhythmic strain distribution.The proposed strategy,the integration of heterogeneous materials,is reported to significantly reduce the mechanical hysteresis of composite yarns.Rhythmic strain distribution of the DTY during stretching causes multi-level micro-cracks in different regions of the carbon nanotube(CNT)conductive layer deposited on the surface of the DTY.Besides,the sensing performance of DTY-based strain sensor can be adjusted by designing the structural parameters.The final prepared flexible strain sensor has the advantages of a wide linear strain range(100%),great sensitivity(GF=12.43),low hysteresis,rapid response(158 ms),high repeatability(>2000 cycles at 50%strain),and hydrophobicity,etc.The sensor can monitor human motion repeatedly and stably well,and shows great advantages in flexible wearable devices.

文摘Carbide-derived carbon(CDC)materials have gained great attention due to the excellent properties for various potential applications.Here,graphite crystal is formed during a room-temperature hydrolysis pro-cess of layered compound YbB_(2)C_(2).The formation mechanism can be demonstrated by a YbB_(2)C_(2)molecular cell:Yb^(3+)acts as a cathode where H_(2)O molecule is reduced to H atom and OH^(−)ion,while(B_(2)C_(2))^(3−)acts as an anode where OH−ion is oxidized to O atom.Then,YbB_(2)C_(2)molecular cell begins to disintegrate,i.e.,Yb^(3+)ion,B and C atoms dissociate from the molecular cell.The as-produced C atoms combine to form graphite crystal.The initial graphite crystal is a cabbage-like microsphere,and then it gradually disintegrates and transforms into layered graphite.In addition,YbB_(6),Yb_(3)(OH)_(3)n(BO_(3))_((3-n))sol,hydrogen,hydrocarbons,and carbon oxides form simultaneously.Our method provides a general and inexpensive route to obtain carbide-derived graphite crystal.

文摘In this paper,a hybrid integrated broadband Doherty power amplifier(DPA)based on a multi-chip module(MCM),whose active devices are fabricated using the gallium nitride(GaN)process and whose passive circuits are fabricated using the gallium arsenide(GaAs)integrated passive device(IPD)process,is proposed for 5G massive multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)application.An inverted DPA structure with a low-Q output network is proposed to achieve better bandwidth performance,and a single-driver architecture is adopted for a chip with high gain and small area.The proposed DPA has a bandwidth of 4.4-5.0 GHz that can achieve a saturation of more than 45.0 dBm.The gain compression from 37 dBm to saturation power is less than 4 dB,and the average power-added efficiency(PAE)is 36.3%with an 8.5 dB peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR)in 4.5-5.0 GHz.The measured adjacent channel power ratio(ACPR)is better than50 dBc after digital predistortion(DPD),exhibiting satisfactory linearity.

文摘With the rapid development of emerging photovoltaics technology in recent years,the application of building-integrated photovoltaics(BIPVs)has attracted the research interest of photovoltaic communities.To meet the practical application requirements of BIPVs,in addition to the evaluation indicator of power conversion efficiency(PCE),other key performance indicators such as heat-insulating ability,average visible light transmittance(AVT),color properties,and integrability are equally important.The traditional Si-based photovoltaic technology is typically limited by its opaque properties for application scenarios where transparency is required.The emerging PV technologies,such as organic and perovskite photovoltaics are promising candidates for BIPV applications,owing to their advantages such as high PCE,high AVT,and tunable properties.At present,the PCE of semitransparent perovskite solar cells(ST-PSCs)has attained 14%with AVT of 22–25%;for semitransparent organic solar cells(ST-OSCs),the PCE reached 13%with AVT of almost 40%.In this review article,we summarize recent advances in material selection,optical engineering,and device architecture design for high-performance semitransparent emerging PV devices,and discuss the application of optical modeling,as well as the challenges of commercializing these semitransparent solar cells for building-integrated applications.

文摘Objective:Colorectal cancer(CRC)surgeries can be performed using either laparoscopic or open laparotomy approaches.However,the long-term outcomes based on tumor location and age remain unclear.This study compared the long-term outcomes of laparoscopic and laparotomy surgeries in patients with CRC,focusing on tumor location and age to identify suitable subgroups and determine an optimal cut-off age.Methods:This retrospective study analyzed 2,014 patients with CRC who underwent radical surgery.Patients were categorized into laparoscopy and laparotomy groups,and propensity score matching(PSM)was performed.Kaplan-Meier analysis,log-rank tests,and Cox regression models were used to identify the independent factors affecting overall survival(OS).Results:Analysis results before PSM indicated higher OS in the laparoscopy group(P=0.035);however,it was no significant difference in mean OS between the two groups after PSM analysis.Cox regression analysis identified several factors influencing the OS of patients with CRC,with age,T stage,nodal involvement,poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma,ascites,preoperative intestinal obstruction,and local tumor spread as independent risk factors.Family history was a protective factor[hazard ratio(HR)=0.33;95%CI,0.16-0.68;P=0.002],and the surgical modality did not independently affect OS.The subgroup analysis highlighted the advantages of laparoscopic surgery in specific subgroups.Conclusions:Overall,laparoscopic and laparotomy surgeries resulted in similar mid-and long-term prognoses for patients with CRC.Laparoscopic surgery showed better outcomes in specific subgroups,particularly in patients aged>60 years and in those with right-sided colon carcinoma.This study suggests that age>64 years might be the optimal cut-off age for laparoscopic surgery.

文摘Designing heterogeneous grain structure(HGS)has been proven to be an effective strategy for overcoming the strength-plasticity dilemma in copper and copper alloys.However,the construction of HGS in dispersionstrengthened copper(DSC)for enhancing strength-plasticity synergy remains challenging.Here,we proposed a novel method,multistep ball milling and reduction process followed by spark plasma sintering,to prepare DSC with an HGS to ameliorate the strength-plasticity dilemma in DSC.Micron-and nano-CuO and nano-Y_(2)O_(3)powders were chosen as raw materials in this new method.The Cu-7vol%Y_(2)O_(3)composite,exhibiting a compressive yield strength of 438 MPa and a failure strain of 46.3%,exhibits a superior strength-plasticity tradeoff in comparison with other DSC materials.Systematic experiments indicate that the back-stress at the heterointerfaces between coarse grains and fine grains maybe not only raise the yield strength of Cu-Y_(2)O_(3)composite,but also significantly enhance the strain hardening to increase the plasticity of the material.The new HGS designing route in this study offers a feasible pathway to develop DSC with a remarkable enhancement in strength and plasticity.
