Since the inflammation and immune response play a central role in driving ischemic damage, it becomes essential to modulate excessive inflammatory reactions to promote cell survival and facilitate tissue repair around the injury site. Various cell types are involved in the inflammatory response, including microglia, astrocytes, and neutrophils, each exhibiting distinct phenotypic profiles upon stimulation. They display either proinflammatory or anti-inflammatory states, a phenomenon known as ‘cell polarization.’ There are two cell polarization therapy strategies. The first involves inducing cells into a neuroprotective phenotype in vitro, then reintroducing them autologously. The second approach utilizes small molecular substances to directly affect cells in vivo. In this review, we elucidate the polarization dynamics of the three reactive cell populations(microglia, astrocytes, and neutrophils) in the context of ischemic stroke, and provide a comprehensive summary of the molecular mechanisms involved in their phenotypic switching. By unraveling the complexity of cell polarization, we hope to offer insights for future research on neuroinflammation and novel therapeutic strategies for ischemic stroke.展开更多

A spectral polarization imaging system is developed, based on the principle of bidirectional reflectance distribution function(BRDF), to obtain spectral reflection intensities of coatings at full spatial angles, and use polarization images to calculate the refractive index by the Fresnel equation. The index is then coupled into TorranceSparrow model to simulate the spectral scattering intensity to mutually verify the experimental results. The spectral scattering characteristics of standard camouflage patterns are then revealed and pinpoint the signature band and the angle of reflecting sensitivity.展开更多

文摘To identify coatings and analyze the anti-detection capabilities of camouflage patterns, material samples can be prepared using the super-pixel segmentation method. A spectral polarization imaging system is developed, based on the principle of bidirectional reflectance distribution function(BRDF), to obtain spectral reflection intensities of coatings at full spatial angles, and use polarization images to calculate the refractive index by the Fresnel equation. The index is then coupled into TorranceSparrow model to simulate the spectral scattering intensity to mutually verify the experimental results. The spectral scattering characteristics of standard camouflage patterns are then revealed and pinpoint the signature band and the angle of reflecting sensitivity.

文摘Controlling terahertz(THz)polarization with high stability and tunability is essential for achieving further progress in ultrafast spectroscopy,structured-light manipulation,and quantum information processing.Here,we propose a magnetized plasma platform for dynamic THz polarization control by exploiting the intrinsic birefringence between extraordinary and ordinary modes.We identify a strong-magnetization,zero-group-velocity-mismatch regime where the two modes share matched group velocities while retaining finite phase birefringence,enabling robust,phase-stable spin angular momentum control.By tuning the plasma length and magnetic field,we realize programmable phase retardation and demonstrate universal single-qubit gates through parameterized unitary operations.Full-wave particle-in-cell simulations validate high-fidelity polarization transformations across the Poincarésphere and demonstrate the potential for generating structured vector beams under spatially varying magnetic fields.The platform offers ultrafast response,resilience to extreme THz intensities,and in situ tunability,positioning magnetized plasmas as a versatile and damage-resilient medium for next-generation THz polarization control and structured-wave applications.
文摘As a vectorial property,polarization encodes high-dimensional information of light.Polarization-based imaging can characterize detailed structural features of biomedical samples label-freely.However,compared with other fundamental properties of light,such as intensity,wavelength and phase,polarization has a shorter application history in biomedicine,because of the requirement for both advanced polarization optical components and computational approaches,which can be achieved nowadays with the fast theoretical and hardware development.

文摘Spontaneous polarization due to symmetry breaking in the transition metal ditellurides(MTe_(2))family exhibits intriguing sliding ferroelectricity.Although theoretical predictions of MTe_(2)ferroelectric metals with noncentrosymmetric stacking have been reported,the realization of such polarization structure remains a challenge.Here,we demonstrate the synthesis of PtTe_(2)with non-centrosymmetric stacking layers,in contrast to bulk AA stacking,achieved within a scanning transmission electron microscope(STEM)by irradiating amorphous PtxTeythin flms with an electron beam probe.Cross-sectional STEM imaging combined with frst-principles calculations reveals that the diverse stacking confgurations due to an intralayerπ-stacking system break centrosymmetry in PtTe_(2),giving rise to the out-of-plane polarization.Three-dimensional atomic positions identifed by the atomic electron tomography method further demonstrate the local distortions associated with the non-centrosymmetric stacking layers in PtTe_(2).The understanding of the atomic origin of polarization in PtTe_(2)is of signifcant importance for developing devices that integrate ferroelectricity with metallicity.

文摘We demonstrate a new polarization smoothing(PS)approach utilizing residual stress birefringence in fused silica to create a spatially random polarization control plate(SRPCP),thereby improving target illumination uniformity in inertial confinement fusion(ICF)laser systems.The fundamental operating mechanism and key fabrication techniques for the SRPCP are systematically developed and experimentally validated.The SRPCP converts a linearly polarized 3ω incident laser beam into an output beam with a spatially randomized polarization distribution.When combined with a continuous phase plate,the SRPCP effectively suppresses high-intensity speckles at all spatial frequencies in the focal spot.The proposed PS technique is specifically designed for high-fluence large-aperture laser systems,enabling novel polarization control regimes in laser-driven ICF.

文摘Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)spectroscopy is a powerful and broadly used spectroscopic technique for characterizing molecular structures and dynamics.Yet the power of NMR is restricted by its inherently low sensitivity due to the weak polarization of nuclear spins under conventional experiment conditions.Dynamic nuclear polarization(DNP)and chemically induced dynamic nuclear polarization(CIDNP)have been emerging as powerful in-situ hyperpolarization methods to boost NMR sensitivity.This review provides a brief overview of DNP mechanisms in the context of both solid-state and liquidstate.We delve into the molecular features of different polarizing agents and their impacts on DNP applications,which are now steadily progressing towards modern NMR magnetic field strengths and ambient temperatures.Furthermore,the progress of CIDNP,particularly photo-CIDNP as a potential alternative hyperpolarization technique of DNP,in studying protein dynamics and chemical reaction mechanisms,will be covered.This review also highlights the chemical diversity and experimental strategies crucial for these hyperpolarization techniques,showcasing their transformative role in NMR spectroscopy.

文摘Neurotoxic astrocytes are a promising therapeutic target for the attenuation of cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury.Low-density lipoprotein receptor,a classic cholesterol regulatory receptor,has been found to inhibit NLR family pyrin domain containing protein 3(NLRP3)inflammasome activation in neurons following ischemic stroke and to suppress the activation of microglia and astrocytes in individuals with Alzheimer’s disease.However,little is known about the effects of low-density lipoprotein receptor on astrocytic activation in ischemic stroke.To address this issue in the present study,we examined the mechanisms by which low-density lipoprotein receptor regulates astrocytic polarization in ischemic stroke models.First,we examined low-density lipoprotein receptor expression in astrocytes via immunofluorescence staining and western blotting analysis.We observed significant downregulation of low-density lipoprotein receptor following middle cerebral artery occlusion reperfusion and oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation.Second,we induced the astrocyte-specific overexpression of low-density lipoprotein receptor using astrocyte-specific adeno-associated virus.Low-density lipoprotein receptor overexpression in astrocytes improved neurological outcomes in middle cerebral artery occlusion mice and reversed neurotoxic astrocytes to create a neuroprotective phenotype.Finally,we found that the overexpression of low-density lipoprotein receptor inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome activation in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation injured astrocytes and that the addition of nigericin,an NLRP3 agonist,restored the neurotoxic astrocyte phenotype.These findings suggest that low-density lipoprotein receptor could inhibit the NLRP3-meidiated neurotoxic polarization of astrocytes and that increasing low-density lipoprotein receptor in astrocytes might represent a novel strategy for treating cerebral ischemic stroke.

文摘Defects-rich heterointerfaces integrated with adjustable crystalline phases and atom vacancies,as well as veiled dielectric-responsive character,are instrumental in electromagnetic dissipation.Conventional methods,however,constrain their delicate constructions.Herein,an innovative alternative is proposed:carrageenan-assistant cations-regulated(CACR)strategy,which induces a series of sulfides nanoparticles rooted in situ on the surface of carbon matrix.This unique configuration originates from strategic vacancy formation energy of sulfides and strong sulfides-carbon support interaction,benefiting the delicate construction of defects-rich heterostructures in M_(x)S_(y)/carbon composites(M-CAs).Impressively,these generated sulfur vacancies are firstly found to strengthen electron accumulation/consumption ability at heterointerfaces and,simultaneously,induct local asymmetry of electronic structure to evoke large dipole moment,ultimately leading to polarization coupling,i.e.,defect-type interfacial polarization.Such“Janus effect”(Janus effect means versatility,as in the Greek two-headed Janus)of interfacial sulfur vacancies is intuitively confirmed by both theoretical and experimental investigations for the first time.Consequently,the sulfur vacancies-rich heterostructured Co/Ni-CAs displays broad absorption bandwidth of 6.76 GHz at only 1.8 mm,compared to sulfur vacancies-free CAs without any dielectric response.Harnessing defects-rich heterostructures,this one-pot CACR strategy may steer the design and development of advanced nanomaterials,boosting functionality across diverse application domains beyond electromagnetic response.

文摘Developing effective strategies to regulate graphene’s conduction loss and polarization has become a key to expanding its application in the electromagnetic wave absorption(EMWA)field.Based on the unique energy band structure of graphene,regulating its bandgap and electrical properties by introducing heteroatoms is considered a feasible solution.Herein,metal-nitrogen doping reduced graphene oxide(M–N-RGO)was prepared by embedding a series of single metal atoms M–N_(4) sites(M=Mn,Fe,Co,Ni,Cu,Zn,Nb,Cd,and Sn)in RGO using an N-coordination atom-assisted strategy.These composites had adjustable conductivity and polarization to optimize dielectric loss and impedance matching for efficient EMWA performance.The results showed that the minimum reflection loss(RL_(min))of Fe–N-RGO reaches−74.05 dB(2.0 mm)and the maximum effective absorption bandwidth(EAB_(max))is 7.05 GHz(1.89 mm)even with a low filler loading of only 1 wt%.Combined with X-ray absorption spectra(XAFS),atomic force microscopy,and density functional theory calculation analysis,the Fe–N_(4) can be used as the polarization center to increase dipole polarization,interface polarization and defect-induced polarization due to d-p orbital hybridization and structural distortion.Moreover,electron migration within the Fe further leads to conduction loss,thereby synergistically promoting energy attenuation.This study demonstrates the effectiveness of metal-nitrogen doping in regulating the graphene′s dielectric properties,which provides an important basis for further investigation of the loss mechanism.

文摘The M1/M2 phenotypic shift of microglia after spinal cord injury plays an important role in the regulation of neuroinflammation during the secondary injury phase of spinal cord injury.Regulation of shifting microglia polarization from M1(neurotoxic and proinflammatory type)to M2(neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory type)after spinal cord injury appears to be crucial.Tryptanthrin possesses an anti-inflammatory biological function.However,its roles and the underlying molecular mechanisms in spinal cord injury remain unknown.In this study,we found that tryptanthrin inhibited microglia-derived inflammation by promoting polarization to the M2 phenotype in vitro.Tryptanthrin promoted M2 polarization through inactivating the cGAS/STING/NF-κB pathway.Additionally,we found that targeting the cGAS/STING/NF-κB pathway with tryptanthrin shifted microglia from the M1 to M2 phenotype after spinal cord injury,inhibited neuronal loss,and promoted tissue repair and functional recovery in a mouse model of spinal cord injury.Finally,using a conditional co-culture system,we found that microglia treated with tryptanthrin suppressed endoplasmic reticulum stress-related neuronal apoptosis.Taken together,these results suggest that by targeting the cGAS/STING/NF-κB axis,tryptanthrin attenuates microglia-derived neuroinflammation and promotes functional recovery after spinal cord injury through shifting microglia polarization to the M2 phenotype.

文摘BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells,found in various tissues,possess significant healing and immunomodulatory properties,influencing macrophage polarization,which is essential for wound repair.However,chronic wounds present significant therapeutic challenges,requiring novel strategies to improve healing outcomes.AIM To investigate the potential of fetal dermal mesenchymal stem cells(FDMSCs)in enhancing wound healing through modulation of macrophage polarization,specifically by promoting the M2 phenotype to address inflammatory responses in chronic wounds.METHODS FDMSCs were isolated from BalB/C mice and co-cultured with RAW264.7 macrophages to assess their effects on macrophage polarization.Flow cytometry,quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction,and histological analyses were employed to evaluate shifts in macrophage phenotype and wound healing in a mouse model.Statistical analysis was performed using GraphPad Prism.RESULTS FDMSCs induced macrophage polarization from the M1 to M2 phenotype,as demonstrated by a reduction in proinflammatory markers(inducible nitric oxide synthase,interleukin-6)and an increase in anti-inflammatory markers[mannose receptor(CD206),arginase-1]in co-cultured RAW264.7 macrophages.These shifts were confirmed by flow cytometry.In an acute skin wound model,FDMSC-treated mice exhibited faster wound healing,enhanced collagen deposition,and improved vascular regeneration compared to controls.Significantly higher expression of arginase-1 further indicated an enriched M2 macrophage environment.CONCLUSION FDMSCs effectively modulate macrophage polarization from M1 to M2,reduce inflammation,and enhance tissue repair,demonstrating their potential as an immunomodulatory strategy in wound healing.These findings highlight the promising therapeutic application of FDMSCs in managing chronic wounds.

文摘High-resolution seeing through complex scattering media such as turbid water,biological tissues,and mist is a significant challenge because the strong scattering scrambles the light paths and forms the scattering wall.We propose an active polarized iterative optimization approach for high-resolution imaging through complex scattering media.By acquiring a series of sub-polarized images,we can capture the diverse pattern-illuminated images with various high-frequency component information caused by the Brownian motion of complex scattering materials,which are processed using the common-mode rejection of polarization characteristics to extract target information from scattering medium information.Following that,our computational reconstruction technique employs an iterative optimization algorithm that commences with patternilluminated Fourier ptychography for reconstructing the high-resolution scene.It is extremely important that our approach for high-resolution imaging through complex scattering media is not limited by priori information and optical memory effect.The proposed approach is suitable for not only dynamic but also static scattering media,which may find applications in the biomedicine field,such as skin abnormalities,non-invasive blood flow,and superficial tumors.
