The reason is the blood-brain barrier(BBB). BBB is a physical barrier that stabilizes the physiological environment of brain tissue and protects the central nervous system from the invasion of harmful substances. Drug delivery based on nanotechnology and nanocarriers has attracted much attention due to its biological safety, continuous drug release time,increasing solubility, biological drug activity, and enhanced BBB permeability. By modifying different substances on the surface of nanocarriers, the BBB is bypassed by receptor-mediated and cell endocytosis and exocytosis. In addition, the purpose of bypassing BBB-targeted drug delivery can also be achieved by intranasal administration and local administration. This paper reviews different target transport mechanisms, mainly in invasive and non-invasive strategies, the nanocarriers that have made progress and the nanocarrier strategy of bypassing BBB are listed.展开更多

Conventional and multistage Rock-Eval, scanning electron microscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) T1-T2were performed to analyze the contents and occurrence characteristics of shale oil. Low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption(LTNA/D) experiments were conducted on the shales before and after extraction. The relationships between shale oil occurrence with organic matter and pore structures were then discussed. Predominantly, the shale oil in the Funing Formation is found within fractures, with secondary occurrences in interparticle pores linked to brittle minerals and sizeable intraparticle pores associated with clay minerals. The selected shales can be categorized into two types based on the nitrogen isotherms. Type A shales are characterized by high contents of felsic and calcareous minerals but low clay minerals, with larger TOC and shale oil values. Conversely, Type B shales are marked by abundant clay minerals but diminished TOC and shale oil contents. The lower BET specific surface area(SSA), larger average pore diameter, and simpler pore surfaces and pore structures lead to the Type A shales being more conducive to shale oil enrichment and mobility. Shale oil content is predominantly governed by the abundance of organic matter, while an overabundance of organic matter typically equates to a reduced ratio of free oil and diminished fluidity. The BET SSA, volumes of pores less than 25 and 100 nm at extracted state all correlate negatively with total and adsorbed oil contents but display no correlation with free oil, while they have positive relationships with capillary-bound water.Consequently, pore water is mainly saturated in micropores(<25 nm) and minipores(25-100 nm), as well as adsorbed oil, while free oil, i.e., bound and movable oil, primarily exists in mesopores(100-1000 nm) and macropores(>1000 nm). These findings may enhance the understanding of the microscopic occurrence characteristics of shale oil and will contribute to guide resource estimation and shale oil sweet spot exploitation in the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin.展开更多

By analyzing the internal distributions of electric field, current density, and temperature of the device, a detailed investigation on the damage process and mechanism induced by high-power microwaves （HPM） is performed. The results indicate that the temperature elevation occurs in the negative half-period and the temperature drop process is in the positive half-period under the HPM injection from the output port. The damage point is located near the edge of the base-emitter junction of T2, while with the input injection it exists between the base and the emitter of T2. Comparing these two kinds of injection, the input injection is more likely to damage the device than the output injection. The dependences of the damage energy threshold and the damage power threshold causing the device failure on the pulse-width are obtained, and the formulas obtained have the same form as the experimental equations, which demonstrates that more power is required to destroy the device if the pulse-width is shorter. Furthermore, the simulation result in this paper has a good coincidence with the experimental result.展开更多

It has been recently recognized that the hydride materials containing negatively charged hydrogen(H~-) show promises for Nfixation and hydrogenation to ammonia. Herein, we report that rare earth metal hydrides such as lanthanum hydride can also fix Neither by heating to 200 °C or ball milling under ambient Npressure and temperature. The Nfixation by lanthanum hydride may proceed via an intermediate lanthanum hydride-nitride(La-H-N) structure to form the final lanthanum nitride product. The hydride ion functions as an electron donor, which provides electrons for Nactivation possibly mediated by the lanthanum atoms. It is observed that N–H bond is not formed during the Nfixation process, which is distinctly different from the alkali or alkaline earth metal hydrides. The hydrolysis of La-H-N to ammonia is feasible using water as the hydrogen source. These results provide new insights into the nitrogen fixation by hydride materials and more efforts are needed for the development of rare earth metal-based catalysts and/or nitrogen carriers for ammonia synthesis processes.展开更多

文摘Tongue squamous cell carcinoma(TSCC)is a prevalent malignancy that afflicts the head and neck area and presents a high incidence of metastasis and invasion.Accurate diagnosis and effective treatment are essential for enhancing the quality of life and the survival rates of TSCC patients.The current treatment modalities for TSCC frequently suffer from a lack of specificity and efficacy.Nanoparticles with diagnostic and photothermal therapeutic properties may offer a new approach for the targeted therapy of TSCC.However,inadequate accumulation of photosensitizers at the tumor site diminishes the efficacy of photothermal therapy(PTT).This study modified gold nanodots(AuNDs)with the TSCC-targeting peptide HN-1 to improve the selectivity and therapeutic effects of PTT.The Au-HN-1 nanosystem effectively targeted the TSCC cells and was rapidly delivered to the tumor tissues compared to the AuN Ds.The enhanced accumulation of photosensitizing agents at tumor sites achieved significant PTT effects in a mouse model of TSCC.Moreover,owing to its stable long-term fluorescence and high X-ray attenuation coefficient,the Au-HN-1 nanosystem can be used for fluorescence and computed tomography imaging of TSCC,rendering it useful for early tumor detection and accurate delineation of surgical margins.In conclusion,Au-HN-1 represents a promising nanomedicine for imaging-based diagnosis and targeted PTT of TSCC.

文摘Glioma is the most common malignant tumor of the brain. The postoperative recurrence rate was high,and the 2-year survival rate only increased by 20%–25%. The reason is the blood-brain barrier(BBB). BBB is a physical barrier that stabilizes the physiological environment of brain tissue and protects the central nervous system from the invasion of harmful substances. Drug delivery based on nanotechnology and nanocarriers has attracted much attention due to its biological safety, continuous drug release time,increasing solubility, biological drug activity, and enhanced BBB permeability. By modifying different substances on the surface of nanocarriers, the BBB is bypassed by receptor-mediated and cell endocytosis and exocytosis. In addition, the purpose of bypassing BBB-targeted drug delivery can also be achieved by intranasal administration and local administration. This paper reviews different target transport mechanisms, mainly in invasive and non-invasive strategies, the nanocarriers that have made progress and the nanocarrier strategy of bypassing BBB are listed.

文摘As-rolled titanium/steel composite plate has poor plastic deformation ability,and it is difficult to achieve synergistic deformation,especially for dissimilar metals with very different plastic deformation abilities.The 304/TC4 composite plate with corrugated interface was manufactured using the asymmetric rolling with local strong stress method.The changing rules of bonding strength and synergistic deformation ability of corrugated interface under different annealing process parameters were studied.The results show that in the range of 550–850℃,especially after the temperature exceeds 650℃,with increasing the annealing temperature and time,the difference of microstructure between peak and trough positions increases,and the bonding strength of the composite plate decreases gradually.Especially,the interfacial bonding strength of the plate sharply decreases at 750℃ due to the rapid growth of intermetallic compounds at the interface and the diffusion holes caused by the difference of element diffusion.The 304/TC4 composite plate has the best synergistic deformation ability when annealing at 650℃/2 h,with the elongation reaching 35%and the tensile strength decreasing to 852 MPa.High interfacial bonding strength and moderate matrix recovery are important prerequisites for synergistic deformation of composite plates.

文摘The microscopic occurrence characteristics primarily constrain the enrichment and mobility of shale oil.This study collected the lacustrine shales from the Palaeogene Funing Formation in the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin. Conventional and multistage Rock-Eval, scanning electron microscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) T1-T2were performed to analyze the contents and occurrence characteristics of shale oil. Low-temperature nitrogen adsorption-desorption(LTNA/D) experiments were conducted on the shales before and after extraction. The relationships between shale oil occurrence with organic matter and pore structures were then discussed. Predominantly, the shale oil in the Funing Formation is found within fractures, with secondary occurrences in interparticle pores linked to brittle minerals and sizeable intraparticle pores associated with clay minerals. The selected shales can be categorized into two types based on the nitrogen isotherms. Type A shales are characterized by high contents of felsic and calcareous minerals but low clay minerals, with larger TOC and shale oil values. Conversely, Type B shales are marked by abundant clay minerals but diminished TOC and shale oil contents. The lower BET specific surface area(SSA), larger average pore diameter, and simpler pore surfaces and pore structures lead to the Type A shales being more conducive to shale oil enrichment and mobility. Shale oil content is predominantly governed by the abundance of organic matter, while an overabundance of organic matter typically equates to a reduced ratio of free oil and diminished fluidity. The BET SSA, volumes of pores less than 25 and 100 nm at extracted state all correlate negatively with total and adsorbed oil contents but display no correlation with free oil, while they have positive relationships with capillary-bound water.Consequently, pore water is mainly saturated in micropores(<25 nm) and minipores(25-100 nm), as well as adsorbed oil, while free oil, i.e., bound and movable oil, primarily exists in mesopores(100-1000 nm) and macropores(>1000 nm). These findings may enhance the understanding of the microscopic occurrence characteristics of shale oil and will contribute to guide resource estimation and shale oil sweet spot exploitation in the Gaoyou Sag, Subei Basin.

文摘Astronomical spectroscopy is crucial for exploring the physical properties,chemical composition,and kinematic behavior of celestial objects.With continuous advancements in observational technology,astronomical spectroscopy faces the dual challenges of rapidly expanding data volumes and relatively lagging data processing capabilities.In this context,the rise of artificial intelligence technologies offers an innovative solution to address these challenges.This paper analyzes the latest developments in the application of machine learning for astronomical spectral data mining and discusses future research directions in AI-based spectral studies.However,the application of machine learning technologies presents several challenges.The high complexity of models often comes with insufficient interpretability,complicating scientific understanding.Moreover,the large-scale computational demands place higher requirements on hardware resources,leading to a significant increase in computational costs.AI-based astronomical spectroscopy research should advance in the following key directions.First,develop efficient data augmentation techniques to enhance model generalization capabilities.Second,explore more interpretable model designs to ensure the reliability and transparency of scientific conclusions.Third,optimize computational efficiency and reduce the threshold for deep-learning applications through collaborative innovations in algorithms and hardware.Furthermore,promoting the integration of cross-band data processing is essential to achieve seamless integration and comprehensive analysis of multi-source data,providing richer,multidimensional information to uncover the mysteries of the universe.

文摘Background:Despite advances in surgical treatment,high recurrence after surgery remains a challenge for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).This study aimed to investigate the association between compliance to regular follow-up and long-term oncological outcomes among patients undergoing curative resection for HCC.Methods:This multicenter study included patients who underwent curative resection for early-stage HCC between January 2012 and December 2021 at 12 liver surgery centers.Patients were stratified into a regular follow-up group(follow-up every 2–3 months for the first 2 years and every 3–6 months thereafter)and an irregular/no follow-up group.Overall survival(OS),time to recurrence(TTR),and post-recurrence survival(PRS)were compared between the two groups.Results:Among 1544 patients,786(50.9%)underwent regular follow-up during postoperative follow-up.The regular follow-up group had better OS(median:113.4 vs.94.5 months,P=0.010)and PRS(median:37.9 vs.16.3 months,P<0.001)than the irregular/no follow-up group,although TTR was comparable(median:61.4 vs.66.2 months,P=0.161).Furthermore,patients in the regular follow-up group had a lower incidence of tumor beyond the Milan criteria at recurrence(41.6%vs.50.4%,P=0.013)and were more likely to receive curative treatments for recurrence(56.1%vs.49.3%,P=0.061).On multivariate analysis,compliance to regular follow-up was an independent factor associated with better OS[hazard ratio(HR)=0.777,95%confidence interval(CI):0.663–0.910,P=0.002]and PRS(HR=0.523,95%CI:0.428–0.638,P<0.001).Conclusions:Compliance to regular follow-up improved OS and PRS after curative resection for HCC,highlighting the importance of postoperative regular follow-up for early detection of recurrence and timely intervention.
文摘A two-dimensional model of the silicon NPN monolithic composite transistor is established for the first time by utilizing the semiconductor device simulator, Sentaurus-TCAD. By analyzing the internal distributions of electric field, current density, and temperature of the device, a detailed investigation on the damage process and mechanism induced by high-power microwaves （HPM） is performed. The results indicate that the temperature elevation occurs in the negative half-period and the temperature drop process is in the positive half-period under the HPM injection from the output port. The damage point is located near the edge of the base-emitter junction of T2, while with the input injection it exists between the base and the emitter of T2. Comparing these two kinds of injection, the input injection is more likely to damage the device than the output injection. The dependences of the damage energy threshold and the damage power threshold causing the device failure on the pulse-width are obtained, and the formulas obtained have the same form as the experimental equations, which demonstrates that more power is required to destroy the device if the pulse-width is shorter. Furthermore, the simulation result in this paper has a good coincidence with the experimental result.

文摘Water electrolysis using proton-exchange membranes is one of the most promising technologies for carbon-neutral and sustainable energy production.Generally,the overall efficiency of water splitting is limited by the oxygen evolution reaction(OER).Nevertheless,a trade-off between activity and stability exists for most electrocatalytic materials in strong acids and oxidizing media,and the development of efficient and stable catalytic materials has been an important focus of research.In this view,gaining in-depth insights into the OER system,particularly the interactions between reaction intermediates and active sites,is significantly important.To this end,this review introduces the fundamentals of the OER over Ru-based materials,including the conventional adsorbate evolution mechanism,lattice oxygen oxidation mechanism,and oxide path mechanism.Moreover,the up-to-date progress of representative modifications for improving OER performance is further discussed with reference to specific mechanisms,such as tuning of geometric,electronic structures,incorporation of proton acceptors,and optimization of metal-oxygen covalency.Finally,some valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities for OER electrocatalysts are provided with the aim to promote the development of next-generation catalysts with high activity and excellent stability.

文摘Dinitrogen fixation is one of the key reactions in chemistry, which is closely associated with food, environment, and energy. It has been recently recognized that the hydride materials containing negatively charged hydrogen(H~-) show promises for Nfixation and hydrogenation to ammonia. Herein, we report that rare earth metal hydrides such as lanthanum hydride can also fix Neither by heating to 200 °C or ball milling under ambient Npressure and temperature. The Nfixation by lanthanum hydride may proceed via an intermediate lanthanum hydride-nitride(La-H-N) structure to form the final lanthanum nitride product. The hydride ion functions as an electron donor, which provides electrons for Nactivation possibly mediated by the lanthanum atoms. It is observed that N–H bond is not formed during the Nfixation process, which is distinctly different from the alkali or alkaline earth metal hydrides. The hydrolysis of La-H-N to ammonia is feasible using water as the hydrogen source. These results provide new insights into the nitrogen fixation by hydride materials and more efforts are needed for the development of rare earth metal-based catalysts and/or nitrogen carriers for ammonia synthesis processes.

文摘With establishment of thermal and numerical simulation models,the influence of reduction amount on solidification structure,segregation and shrinkage porosity of continuous casting(CC)billets was investigated.The thermal–mechanical coupled simulation results indicated that with an increase in reduction amount,the temperature in the central area decreases,and the reduction efficiency firstly increases and then decreases,reaching the maximum value at reduction amount of 6 mm.Metallographic analysis showed that increasing the reduction amount is beneficial for the refinement of central solidification structure.Moreover,the internal cracks are more likely to appear at higher reduction efficiency.The X-ray computerized tomography results revealed that a higher reduction amount can significantly reduce the volume fraction and equivalent diameter of the central shrinkage porosities of CC billets and increase the sphericity of them.Simultaneously,the macrosegregation of carbon along the central line is improved as the reduction amount increases;while the reduction amount exceeds 8 mm,the segregation degree will not change any more.

文摘The radio telescope possesses high sensitivity and strong signal collection capabilities.While receiving celestial radiation signals,it also captures Radio Frequency Interferences(RFIs)introduced by human activities.RFI,as signals originating from sources other than the astronomical targets,significantly impacts the quality of astronomical data.This paper presents an RFI fast mitigation algorithm based on block Least Mean Square(LMS)algorithm.It enhances the traditional adaptive LMS filter by grouping L adjacent time-sampled points into one block and applying the same filter coefficients for filtering within each block.This transformation reduces multiplication calculations and enhances algorithm efficiency by leveraging the time-domain convolution theorem.The algorithm is tested using baseband data from the Parkes 64 m radio telescope's pulsar observations and simulated data.The results confirm the algorithm's effectiveness,as the pulsar profile after RFI mitigation closely matches the original pulsar profile.

文摘Characterizing the microscopic occurrence and distribution of in-situ pore water and oil is crucial for resource estimation and development method selection of shale oil.In this paper,a series of nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)experiments were conducted on shales from the Gulong Sag,Songliao Basin,China,at AR,WR-AR,WOR-AR,Dry,SO,and WR states.In-situ pore water and oil were reconstructed after WOR-AR.An improved T1-T2pattern for shale oil reservoirs comprising water and oil was proposed to classify and quantitatively detect pore fluids at different occurrence states.The total and free oil contents derived from NMR T1-T2spectra at AR states were found to correlate well with those from multistage Rock-Eval.Moreover,the NMR-calculated total and free oil are generally larger than those measured from multistage Rock-Eval,whereas adsorbed oil is the opposite,which implies that adsorbed,bound,and movable oils in shale pores can be accurately and quantitatively detected via NMR,without absorbed hydrocarbons in kerogen.As per the NMR T2and T1-T2spectra at WOR-AR state,the micro-distributions of in-situ pore water and oil were clearly demonstrated.Adsorbed,bound,and movable oils primarily occur in the micropores(<100 nm),mesopores(100-1000 nm),and macropores(>1000 nm),respectively,whereas capillary-bound water is primarily correlated with micropores.Thus,the microscopic occurrence and distribution of adsorbed oil are remarkably affected by pore water,followed by bound oil,and movable oil is hardly affected.This study would be helpful in further understanding the microscopic occurrence characteristics of pore fluids in-situ shale oil reservoirs.

文摘Multi-nucleotide variants(MNVs)are critical genetic variants associated with various genetic diseases.However,tools for precisely installing MNVs are limited.In this study,we present the development of a dual-base editor,BDBE,by integrating TadA-dual and engineered human N-methylpurine DNA glycosylase(eMPG)into nCas9(D10A).Our results demonstrate that BDBE effectively converts A-to-G/C/T(referred to as A-to-B)and C-to-T/G/A(referred to as C-to-D)simultaneously,yielding nine types of dinucleotides from adjacent CA nucleotides while maintaining minimal off-target effects.Notably,BDBE4 exhibits exceptional performance across multiple human cell lines and successfully simulated all nine dinucleotide MNVs from the gnomAD database.These findings indicate that BDBE significantly expands the product range of base editors and offers a valuable resource for advancing MNV research.

文摘We propose a multi-source radio frequency interference(RFI)mitigation method based on a reference antenna array to address the challenge of RFI from multiple directions in radio observation equipment.It introduces a sampling point correction technique using a multi-channel parallel cross-correlation computation method,enhancing the effectiveness of frequency domain adaptive RFI fast mitigation algorithms.The design implements an RFI component detection method based on cross-correlation coefficient thresholds to effectively reduce new interference frequency components introduced by the reference antenna array.Simulated RFI signals and baseband signals of pulsar J0332+5434 observed by the Nanshan 26 m Radio Telescope(NSRT)were used to test the algorithm proposed in this paper.Simulation results demonstrate that the simulated radio telescope signals after RFI mitigation closely match the original pulsar data in profile and phase,confirming the effectiveness of the proposed method.

文摘At the end of 2022,the adjustment of the coronavirus disease 2019(COVID-19)pandemic control policy in China resulted in alarge-scale increase in public infection.To compare the fertility parameters of male patients before and after the adjustments ofthe COVID-19 pandemic control policy in China,we collected data on patients’medical histories and laboratory examinations ontheir first visits between June 2022 and March 2023 in five different hospitals.Data were divided into five groups according tothe timeline of the policy adjustment.The data we collected from male patients included semen quality and serum reproductivehormone levels,and intergroup comparisons were made using the Mann–Whitney U and Chi-square tests.In total,16784 casesunderwent regular semen analysis,11180 had sperm morphology assessments,and 7200 had reproductive hormone analyses.Thedata showed declining trends in semen volume,sperm motility,and the progressive sperm motility rate after the policy adjustment.Subgroup comparison revealed an initial decrease and gradual recovery in progressive motility rate.Sperm morphology analysisshowed increased neck and tail abnormalities after the policy adjustment.No significant change in hormone levels was observed.Following the adjustment of the COVID-19 prevention policy in China,a decline in sperm motility and morphology was observed.This trend may gradually recover over 2 months.After the policy adjustment,reproductive hormone levels were relatively stablethroughout,except for an increase in luteinizing hormone(LH).These changes in semen parameters suggest that the policyadjustment had a short-to medium-term impact on male reproductive function.
