Since 2005, organ donation and transplantation in China has undergone thorough reform, which complies with legislation requirements and ethical principles established by the World Health Organization(WHO). Reform in China has demonstrated the unwavering confidence and utmost determination of the Chinese government and the Chinese transplantation community. The year 2015 marked a historic turning point when voluntary donations from Chinese citizens became the sole legitimate source for organ transplantation. Since 2015, China has gradually established and refined the “Chinese Mode” and “China System” for organ donation and transplantation, fulfilling its political pledge of reform, and has garnered international recognition, and fostered a social culture which promotes organ donation. This article reviewed the history of reform on organ donation and transplantation in China, presented a new pattern of establishment of organ donation system in the new era of the country, and the direction of advances in the future.展开更多

文摘Lower Paleozoic black shales are important source rocks worldwide.The Upper Ordovician-Lower Silurian Renheqiao Formation of the Baoshan Block is a low-maturity equivalent of the Wufeng-Longmaxi(WF-LMX)Shale of the Sichuan Basin.However,organic matter(OM)characteristics in these low-maturity Lower Paleozoic shales are not well understood.In this study,50 Renheqiao Formation shale samples collected from seven outcrop sections and one drill core were investigated with organic petrology,organic geochemistry,R_(o)ck-Eval pyrolysis,N_(2) and CO_(2) adsorption,and scanning electron microscope(SEM)analyses to study the OM content,type,thermal maturity,and the development of OM-hosted pores in these Lower Paleozoic shales.The total organic carbon(TOC)content of the Renheqiao Formation shales varies,with the maximum content of 10.07 wt%.R_(o)ck-Eval pyrolysis results show that present OM in the Renheqiao Formation shales is Type IV kerogen,a result of advanced thermal maturation.Graptolite reflectance(GR_(o))ranges from 1.26%to 1.85%,and equivalent vitrinite reflectance(EqR_(o))converted from GR_(o) ranges from 1.08%to 1.51%,indicating that the studied Renheqiao Formation shales are dominantly within the late-mature stage.EqR_(o) based on R_(o)ck-Eval T_(max) shows large variations,which indicates that R_(o)ck-Eval T_(max) is not a reliable thermal maturity indicator for the Lower Paleozoic Renheqiao Formation shales.Caution should be applied when assessing the thermal maturity of high-maturity black shales based on T_(max) when the S2 values are too low.Organic petrographic observations show that OM in these shales is dominated by solid bitumen(>70 vol%of total OM),with minor contributions by graptolites and chitinozoans.The specific surface area and pore volume of shales are controlled by TOC content.Organic pores are hosted by solid bitumen and were not observed in graptolites when examined under the SEM.Although the Renheqiao Formation has a lower thermal maturity than the over-mature WF-LMX Shale,it is mature enough that primary oil-prone macerals have been thermally transformed and could not be identified under the microscope.

文摘Covalent organic frameworks(COFs)are two-(2D)or threedimensional(3D)crystalline,porous networks generated by reversible polymerization of organic building blocks[1,2].The structures and functionalities of COFs are precisely controlled via appropriately selected organic building blocks.This design imparts unique properties to COFs,including exceptional structural stability,tunable pore structure,and surface chemical activity,making them promising for gas separation,catalysis,optoelectronics,and sensing applications.Since Yaghi et al.'s seminal report on COFs in 2005[2],these frameworks have swiftly emerged as a hotspot in the field of materials.Originally,the focus was on fabricating rigid frameworks with static structures and optoelectronic properties.However,the inherently static nature of these frameworks hinders their responsiveness to external stimuli,potentially constraining their functionality in specific applications.Hence,an increasing number of researchers are now directing their attention toward the development of dynamic COFs capable of modifying their structures in response to external stimuli[3].Specifically,dynamic 2D COFs exhibiting enhanced structural responsiveness are of particular interest due to their capability to integrate switchable geometries and porosities with semiconductor building blocks,as well as electron conjugation across COF layers and π-stacked columns,which may enable stimuli-responsive electronic and spin properties[4].

文摘Exploring secondary organic aerosol(SOA)processes is crucial for understanding climate and air pollution in megacities.This study introduces a new method using positive matrix factorization(PMF)to investigate the SOA process by integrating the OA and associated ions previously misidentified as inorganic aerosol in high-resolution aerosol mass spectrometry data.The mass spectra and time series of primary OA(POA)and less oxidized oxygenated OA(OOA)identified by this new method resembled those resolved by traditional PMF.However,more oxidized OOA(MO-OOA)identified by traditional PMF can be further subdivided into multiple OA factors,including nitrogen-enriched OA(ON-OA)and sulfur-enriched OA(OS-OA)in summer,and ON-OA,OS-OA,and OOA in winter.Our findings highlight the significant role of photochemical processes in the formation of OS-OA compared to ON-OA.The compositions of reconstructed MO-OOA varied under different Ox(=O_(3)+NO_(2))and relative humidity conditions,emphasizing the limitations of using a constant mass spectrum.Aged biomass burning OA(BBOA)and coal combustion OA(CCOA),previously misattributed as POA,contributed 9.2%(0.43μg m^(−3))and 7.0%(0.33μg m^(−3))to SOA,respectively.Aged BBOA was more prone to forming OS-OA,whereas ON-OA showed higher correlations with aged CCOA,indicating distinct molecular compositions of SOA from different aged POA sources.Compared to aged BBOA,aged CCOA was more subject to conversion during aqueous phase processing.These results suggest that the variations in mass spectra and compositions need to be considered when simulating SOA processes.

文摘As a class of crystalline porous materials,metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)have shown unique advantages in the fields of catalysis,gas storage and separation,but their inherent microporous structure(pore diameter<2 nm)severely limits their application in scenarios such as macromolecular mass transfer and so on.In order to overcome this re-striction,mesoporous MOFs(meso-MOFs)with a larger aperture(2-50 nm)have attracted much attention due to their potential applications in biological macromolecular catalysis,energy storage and other fields.To date,how to accurately regulate its mesopore topology and pore ordering still faces important technical challenges.

文摘Metal-organic frameworks(MOFs),assembled periodically by coordinating inorganic metal ions and organic motifs,have arisen widespread curiosity and intensive investigation owing to their tailorable electronic properties and well-defined topological structure.However,the majority of MOFs are intrinsically dielectric or insulative[1]and typically form as 3D bulk or powder crystals,making them incompatible with complementary metal-oxide semiconductor(CMOS)techniques.In recent years,layer-stacked two-dimensional conjugated MOFs(2D c-MOFs),composed of planar conjugated ligands and linkages[2],have demonstrated high in-plane π conjugation and weak out-of-plane van der Waals interactions,due to their long-range electron delocalization over metal ions and ligands[3].As a result,highly tunable band gaps from semiconductor to conductor,modulable porosity from micropore to macropore and versatile processability into conductive 2D thin films with controllable lateral thickness and domain size are presented,rendering charming potential for applications in(opto-)electronics compared with classic 2D metal oxide,chalcogenide and crystalline polymer materials.To improve interfacial charge-transport and precisely tune the charge extraction and band alignment of 2D c-MOFs in(opto-)electronic devices[4],developing highly efficient synthetic methods of 2D c-MOFs is of utmost importance.

文摘Organic electrode materials(OEMs)constitute an attractive class of energy storage materials for potassium-ion batteries,but their application is severely hindered by sluggish kinetics and limited capacities.Herein,inorganic molecules covalent combination strategy is proposed to drive advanced potassium organic batteries.Specifically,molecular selenium,possessing high potential of conductivity and electroactivity,is covalently bonded with organic matrix,that is symmetrical selenophene-annulated dipolyperylene diimide(PDI2-2Se),is designed to verify the feasibility.The inorganic-anchored OEM(PDI2-2Se)can be electrochemically activated to form organic(PDI2 matrix)–inorganic(Se)hybrids during initial cycles.Stateof-the-art 3D tomography reveals that a“mutual-accelerating”effect was realized,that is,the 10-nm Se quantum dots,possessing high conductivity,facilitate charge transfer in organics as well store K^(+)-ions,and organic PDI2 matrix benefits the encapsulation of Se,thereby suppressing shuttle effect and volume fluctuation during cycling,endowing resulting PDI2/Se hybrids with both high-rate capacities and longevity.The concept of inorganicconfigurated OEM through covalent bonds,in principle,can also be extended to design novel functional organic-redox electrodes for other high-performance secondary batteries.

文摘Solar-driven(or light-driven)production of hydrogen peroxide(H_(2)O_(2))from water(H_(2)O)and molecular oxygen(O_(2))has recently received increasing attention as a green and sustainable alternative to conventional methods.However,the field of photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production is still in its infancy,primarily because of limited H_(2)O_(2)production efficiency.Over the past few years,a wide range of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have been developed via diverse synthetic and modification strategies to increase the H_(2)O_(2)yield.Among them,organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts have shown higher H_(2)O_(2)production performance than single-component systems;at the same time,the advancements and challenges of these hybrid systems have not been comprehensively reviewed.Therefore,this review summarizes the advantages/limitations,recent progress,and potential challenges of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts for H_(2)O_(2)production.First,we elucidate the superiority of the photocatalytic H_(2)O_(2)production over the conventional anthraquinone oxidation process.Then,we summarize the advantages and limitations of inorganic,organic,and organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts and discuss in detail the design,synthetic strategies,and photochemical properties of organic-inorganic hybrid photocatalysts.Finally,this review outlines the challenges and outlook for future research in this emerging area.

文摘1 Subcellular Organelle Dysfunction and Disease Progression The precise organization of subcellular organelles is important for maintaining cellular homeostasis.Compartmentalization orchestrates metabolic processes,signal transductions,and stress responses.Disturbances in organelles,including the nucleus,mitochondria,lysosomes,and endoplasmic reticulum,can lead to widespread intracellular dysfunction and contribute to diverse pathologies.For example,mitochondrial reactive oxygen species(ROS)exacerbate endoplasmic reticulum(ER)stress,as demonstrated in studies linking ROS-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction to apoptosis in neurodegenerative diseases,cancer,and inflammatory diseases[1–4].ER stress has also been implicated in cardiac hypertrophy[5],lung fibrosis[6],liver fibrosis[7],and ulcerative colitis[8].

文摘Peripheral nerve injury is a common neurological condition that often leads to severe functional limitations and disabilities.Research on the pathogenesis of peripheral nerve injury has focused on pathological changes at individual injury sites,neglecting multilevel pathological analysis of the overall nervous system and target organs.This has led to restrictions on current therapeutic approaches.In this paper,we first summarize the potential mechanisms of peripheral nerve injury from a holistic perspective,covering the central nervous system,peripheral nervous system,and target organs.After peripheral nerve injury,the cortical plasticity of the brain is altered due to damage to and regeneration of peripheral nerves;changes such as neuronal apoptosis and axonal demyelination occur in the spinal cord.The nerve will undergo axonal regeneration,activation of Schwann cells,inflammatory response,and vascular system regeneration at the injury site.Corresponding damage to target organs can occur,including skeletal muscle atrophy and sensory receptor disruption.We then provide a brief review of the research advances in therapeutic approaches to peripheral nerve injury.The main current treatments are conducted passively and include physical factor rehabilitation,pharmacological treatments,cell-based therapies,and physical exercise.However,most treatments only partially address the problem and cannot complete the systematic recovery of the entire central nervous system-peripheral nervous system-target organ pathway.Therefore,we should further explore multilevel treatment options that produce effective,long-lasting results,perhaps requiring a combination of passive(traditional)and active(novel)treatment methods to stimulate rehabilitation at the central-peripheral-target organ levels to achieve better functional recovery.
文摘The reform stems from honesty and determination. Since 2005, organ donation and transplantation in China has undergone thorough reform, which complies with legislation requirements and ethical principles established by the World Health Organization(WHO). Reform in China has demonstrated the unwavering confidence and utmost determination of the Chinese government and the Chinese transplantation community. The year 2015 marked a historic turning point when voluntary donations from Chinese citizens became the sole legitimate source for organ transplantation. Since 2015, China has gradually established and refined the “Chinese Mode” and “China System” for organ donation and transplantation, fulfilling its political pledge of reform, and has garnered international recognition, and fostered a social culture which promotes organ donation. This article reviewed the history of reform on organ donation and transplantation in China, presented a new pattern of establishment of organ donation system in the new era of the country, and the direction of advances in the future.
