Radio-adaptive doses are also known to lead to an augmented cell or tissue reaction. The aim of this study was to investigate potential synergistic or additive effects when combining the two methods in vitro for an improved therapeutic concept in bladder cancer. Material and Methods: RT4 human bladder carcinoma cell line and HCV29 human bladder epithelium cells were seeded and incubated with various concentrations of Photofrin II. The cells were additionally irradiated with ionizing radiation (0.05 Gy/2 Gy/0.05 Gy + 2 Gy). Cells without Photofrin II incubation and irradiation served as controls. The cell survival was evaluated. Results: The survival rate of both cell lines, RT4 and HCV29, did not differ significantly when incubated with a non-toxic concentration of Photofrin II and exposed to a pre-irradiation dose of 0.05 Gy prior to the 2 Gy radiation fraction, compared to cells exposed to Photofrin II plus a 2 Gy ionizing radiation. Conclusion: The combination of both methods did neither demonstrate a synergistic or additive effect nor did it lead to a negative influence of both modulating factors in an in vitro setting.展开更多

Using the fifth generation of global climate and weather reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and CN05.1 grid precipitation data, this study examined the anomalous characteristics and mechanisms of ARWC by combining the synergistic effect of the westerly jet and meridional wind. Over the past 60 years, ARWC has exhibited significant interdecadal and interannual variations, as well as a north-south seesaw pattern. The westerly jet index(meridional wind index) exhibited a negative(positive) correlation with precipitation in the northern autumn rain zone(NARZ), and a positive(negative) correlation with precipitation in the southern autumn rain zone(SARZ). The coupling of a weak meridional southerly wind with a southward westerly jet and a strong meridional southerly wind with a northward westerly jet are the two primary modes that synergistically influence the ARWC. These synergistic effects cause significant atmospheric changes throughout the troposphere. The contrasting circulation structure, temperature advection, vertical motion, and water vapor flux contributed to the opposite precipitation anomalies observed in the NARZ and SARZ. A new comprehensive index that reflects the coupled synergistic effect is proposed to characterize the anomalous changes in ARWC. This study improves the understanding of the anomalous characteristics and mechanisms of ARWC.展开更多

文摘Wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)is one of the most promising approaches to manufacturing large and complex metal components owing to its low cost and high efficiency.However,pores and coarse columnar grains caused by thermal accumulation in WAAM significantly decrease the strength and increase the anisotropy,preventing the achievement of both high strength and isotropy.In this study,the strength and anisotropy of AlMg-Sc-Zr alloys were improved by regulating heat input.The results indicated that as the heat input increased from 60 to 99 J/mm,all the components had lower porosity(lower than 0.04%),the size of the Al_(3)(Sc_(1-x),Zr_(x))phases decreased,and the number density increased.The average grain size gradually decreased,and the grain morphologies transformed from coarse equiaxed grain(CEG)+fine equiaxed grain(FEG)to FEG owing to the increase in Al_(3)(Sc_(1-x),Zr_(x))phases with increasing heat input.After heat treatment at 325℃for 6 h,high-density dispersed Al_(3)Sc phases(<10 nm)precipitated.The alloy possessed the highest strength at 79 J/mm,ultimate tensile strength(UTS)of approximately 423±3 MPa,and in-plane anisotropy of approximately 4.3%.At a heat input of 99 J/mm,the in-plane anisotropy decreased to 1.2%and UTS reached 414±5 MPa.The reduction in the CEG prolonged the crack propagation path,which improved the UTS in the vertical direction and reduced the anisotropy.Theoretical calculations indicated that the main strengthening mechanisms were solid solution and precipitation strengthening.This study lays the theoretical foundations for WAAM-processed high-strength and isotropic Al alloy components.

文摘Attaining the selective oxidation of isochroman into isochromanone in a molecular oxygen(O_(2))environment without any additives,via a heterogeneous oxidation process,is highly desirable and challenging work.Herein,we prepare two mixed-addendum polyoxometalate-based coordination polymers of the general formula[H_(x)M_(1-x)(i-PrIm)_(4)][H_(2)N(CH_(3))_(2)]_(4)[HPMo_(8)V_(6)O_(42)](M=Co 1,Ni,2;i-PrIm=1-isopropyl-1H-imidazole).Needing no additives,they can catalyze the selective oxidation of isochroman to isochromanone with O_(2)as an oxidant,with yields of 91.5%(1)and 46.8%(2),respectively.Mechanistic studies indicate that the excellent performance of catalyst 1 is attributed to the synergistic operation of[Co(i-Pr-Im)_(4))]complex and PMo_(8)V_(6)unit,and that the catalytic reaction is a radical pathway involving superoxide radicals.Additionally,the catalyst 1 can be recycled and reused at least four times with uncompromised performance.These results provide fundamental guidelines for designing efficient and multi-site heterogeneous catalysts for the selective oxidation of benzyl C(sp^(3))-H bonds by activating O_(2).

文摘The unit cell configuration of lattice structures critically influences their load-bearing and energy absorption performance.In this study,three novel lattice structures were developed by modifying the conventional FBCCZ unit cell through reversing,combining,and turning strategies.The designed lattices were fabricated via laser powder bed fusion(LPBF)using Ti-6Al-4V powder,and the mechanical properties,energy absorption capacity,and deformation behaviors were systematically investigated through quasi-static compression tests and finite element simulations.The results demonstrate that the three modified lattices exhibit superior performance over the conventional FBCCZ structure in terms of fracture strain,specific yield strength,specific ultimate strength,specific energy absorption,and energy absorption efficiency,thereby validating the efficacy of unit cell modifications in enhancing lattice performance.Notably,the CFBCCZ and TFBCCZ lattices significantly outperform both the FBCCZ and RFBCCZ lattice structures in load-bearing and energy absorption.While TFBCCZ shows marginally higher specific elastic modulus and energy absorption efficiency than CFBCCZ,the latter achieves superior energy absorption due to its highest ultimate strength and densification strain.Finite element simulations further reveal that the modified lattices,through optimized redistribution and adjustment of internal nodes and struts,effectively alleviate stress concentration during loading.This structural modification enhances the structural integrity and deformation stability under external loads,enabling a synergistic enhancement of load-bearing capacity and energy absorption performance.

文摘The electrochemical instability of traditional ether-based electrolytes poses a challenge for their use in high-voltage lithium metal batteries.Herein,a synergetic optimization strategy was proposed by introducing an additive with a strong electron-withdrawing group and significant steric hindrance-isosorbide dinitrate(ISDN),reconstructing the solvation structure and solid electrolyte interphase(SEI),enabling highly stable and efficient lithium metal batteries.We found that ISDN can strengthen the interaction between Li^(+)and the anions of lithium salts and weaken the interaction between Li^(+)and the solvent in the solvation structure.It promotes the formation of a LiF-rich and LiN_(x)O_(y)-rich SEI layer,enhancing the uniformity and compactness of Li deposition and inhibiting solvent decomposition,which effectively expands the electrochemical window to 4.8 V.The optimized Li‖Li cells offer stable cycling over 1000 h with an overpotential of only 57.7 mV at 1 mA cm^(-2).Significantly,Li‖3.7 mA h LiFePO_(4)cells retain 108.3%of initial capacity after 546 cycles at a rate of 3 C.Under high-loading conditions(Li‖4.9 mA h LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1)O_(2)full cells)and a cutoff voltage of 4.5 V,the ISDN-containing electrolyte enables stable cycling for 140 cycles.This study leverages steric hindrance and electron-withdrawing effect to synergistically reconstruct the Li^(+)solvation structure and promote stable SEI formation,establishing a novel electrolyte paradigm for high-energy lithium metal batteries.
文摘Background: The radiosensitizing effect of Photofrin II has been demonstrated in vitro and in animal models, even in tumor models known to be highly radioresistant, such as glioblastoma and bladder carcinoma. Radio-adaptive doses are also known to lead to an augmented cell or tissue reaction. The aim of this study was to investigate potential synergistic or additive effects when combining the two methods in vitro for an improved therapeutic concept in bladder cancer. Material and Methods: RT4 human bladder carcinoma cell line and HCV29 human bladder epithelium cells were seeded and incubated with various concentrations of Photofrin II. The cells were additionally irradiated with ionizing radiation (0.05 Gy/2 Gy/0.05 Gy + 2 Gy). Cells without Photofrin II incubation and irradiation served as controls. The cell survival was evaluated. Results: The survival rate of both cell lines, RT4 and HCV29, did not differ significantly when incubated with a non-toxic concentration of Photofrin II and exposed to a pre-irradiation dose of 0.05 Gy prior to the 2 Gy radiation fraction, compared to cells exposed to Photofrin II plus a 2 Gy ionizing radiation. Conclusion: The combination of both methods did neither demonstrate a synergistic or additive effect nor did it lead to a negative influence of both modulating factors in an in vitro setting.

文摘Aiming at the problems of insufficient activity and selectivity of Cu-based catalysts in CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol,Al_(2)O_(3),ZrO_(2)and CeO_(2)modified Cu-ZnO catalysts by the co-precipitation method were prepared,and the influence mechanism of additives on the structure-performance relationship of the catalysts was systematically explored.Through a variety of characterization methods such as XRD,N2 physical adsorption-desorption,TEM,H_(2)-TPR,CO_(2)-TPD and XPS,combined with catalytic performance evaluation experiments,the correlation between the microstructure of catalysts and the reaction performance of CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol was analyzed in depth.The results show that metal additives significantly improve the performance of catalysts.After the introduction of additives,the specific surface area and pore volume of the catalysts increase,the grain size of Cu decreases,and its dispersion improves.The Ce-modified CZC catalyst exhibited the best performance,with the grain size of CuO as small as 11.41 nm,and the surface oxygen vacancy concentration(OⅡ/OⅠ=3.15)was significantly higher than that of other samples.The reaction performance test shows that under the conditions of 2.8 MPa,8000 h−1 and 280℃,the CO_(2)conversion of the CZC catalyst reached 18.83%,the methanol selectivity was 68.40%,and the methanol yield was 12.88%,all of which are superior to other catalysts.Its excellent performance can be attributed to the fact that CeO_(2)enhances the metal-support interaction,increases the surface basicity,promotes the adsorption and activation of CO_(2),and simultaneously inhibits the reverse water-gas shift side reaction.This study clarifies the structure-activity regulation mechanism of additive modification on Cu-ZnO catalysts,providing a theoretical basis and technical reference for the development of efficient catalysts for CO_(2)hydrogenation to methanol.

文摘To deepen understanding of the evolution of coal char microstructural properties of coal char during the co-pyrolysis of coking coal with additives,this study incorporated two typical additives,coal tar pitch(CTP)and waste plastic(HDPE),into a blended coal sample and carried out pyrolysis experiments.The pyrolysis process and the microstructure of char were systematically characterized using various analytical techniques,including thermogravimetric analysis(TGA),X-ray diffraction(XRD)and Raman spectroscopy.Data correlation analysis was performed to reveal the mechanism of carbon structural ordering evolution within the critical temperature range(350−600℃)from colloidal layer formation to semi-coke conversion in coking coal,and to elucidate the regulatory effects of different additives on coal pyrolysis pathways.The results indicate that HDPE releases free radicals during high-temperature pyrolysis,accelerating the pyrolysis reaction and increase the yield of volatile components.Conversely,CTP facilitates pyrolysis at low temperatures through its light components,thereby delaying high-temperature reactions due to the colloidal layer’s effect.XRD results indicate that during the process of pyrolysis,there is a progressive decrease in the interlayer spacing of aromatic layers(d002),while the aromatic ring stacking height(L_(c))and lateral size(L_(a))undergo significant of carbon skeleton ordering.Further comparative reveals that CTP partially suppresses structural ordering at low temperatures,whereas HDPE promotes the condensation and alignment of aromatic clusters via a free radical mechanism.Raman spectroscopy reveals a two-stage reorganization mechanism in the microstructure of the coal char:the decrease in the I_(D)/I_(G)ratio between 350 and 550℃is primarily attributed to the cleavage of aliphatic side chains and cross-linking bonds,leading to a reduction in defective structures;whereas the increase in ID/IG between 550 and 600℃is closely associated with enhanced condensation reactions of aromatic structures.Correlation analysis further demonstrates progressive graphitization during pyrolysis,with a significant positive correlation(R^(2)>0.85)observed between d002 and the full width at half maximum of the G-band(FWHM-G).
文摘Chitosan(CTS)was grafted onto the surface of amino‑functionalized silver chloride silicon dioxide(AgCl@SiO_(2)‑NH_(2))cores to obtain AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticles.The as‑obtained AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS nanoparticles were chlorinated by NaClO solution to get AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑based chloramine nano‑hybrid materials,denoted as AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.A transmission electron microscope was used to observe the morphology of the as‑prepared samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.At the same time,an X‑ray diffractometer and an infrared spectroscope were utilized to characterize their crystal and chemical structures.Besides,ζpotentials were measured to elucidate the surface modification of AgCl nanoparticles by—NH_(2),the antibacterial mechanism of AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl was investigated by scanning electron microscopy,and Escherichia coli(E.coli)and Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)were used as the to‑be‑tested strains to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of samples AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS and AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl.Findings demonstrate that sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS exhibits a chain‑like structure ascribed to the interaction between—NH_(2),and each AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS hybrid nanoparticle contains several AgCl cores.In the meantime,sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl exhibits excellent antibacterial activity against E.coli and S.aureus,which is attributed to the synergistic antibacterial effect of Ag^(+)and Cl^(-).Sample AgCl@SiO_(2)/CTS‑Cl with a dosage of 640.00μg·mL^(-1) could completely kill the two kinds of tested bacteria in 12 h of incubation;it retains a high antibacterial efficiency even after 10 cycles of antibacterial tests.

文摘Refractory metals,including tungsten(W),tantalum(Ta),molybdenum(Mo),and niobium(Nb),play a vital role in industries,such as nuclear energy and aerospace,owing to their exceptional melting temperatures,thermal durability,and corrosion resistance.These metals have body-centered cubic crystal structure,characterized by limited slip systems and impeded dislocation motion,resulting in significant low-temperature brittleness,which poses challenges for the conventional processing.Additive manufacturing technique provides an innovative approach,enabling the production of intricate parts without molds,which significantly improves the efficiency of material usage.This review provides a comprehensive overview of the advancements in additive manufacturing techniques for the production of refractory metals,such as W,Ta,Mo,and Nb,particularly the laser powder bed fusion.In this review,the influence mechanisms of key process parameters(laser power,scan strategy,and powder characteristics)on the evolution of material microstructure,the formation of metallurgical defects,and mechanical properties were discussed.Generally,optimizing powder characteristics,such as sphericity,implementing substrate preheating,and formulating alloying strategies can significantly improve the densification and crack resistance of manufactured parts.Meanwhile,strictly controlling the oxygen impurity content and optimizing the energy density input are also the key factors to achieve the simultaneous improvement in strength and ductility of refractory metals.Although additive manufacturing technique provides an innovative solution for processing refractory metals,critical issues,such as residual stress control,microstructure and performance anisotropy,and process stability,still need to be addressed.This review not only provides a theoretical basis for the additive manufacturing of high-performance refractory metals,but also proposes forward-looking directions for their industrial application.

文摘Wire arc additive manufacturing(WAAM)has emerged as a promising approach for fabricating large-scale components.However,conventional WAAM still faces challenges in optimizing microstructural evolution,minimizing additive-induced defects,and alleviating residual stress and deformation,all of which are critical for enhancing the mechanical performance of the manufactured parts.Integrating interlayer friction stir processing(FSP)into WAAM significantly enhances the quality of deposited materials.However,numerical simulation research focusing on elucidating the associated thermomechanical coupling mechanisms remains insufficient.A comprehensive numerical model was developed to simulate the thermomechanical coupling behavior in friction stir-assisted WAAM.The influence of post-deposition FSP on the coupled thermomechanical response of the WAAM process was analyzed quantitatively.Moreover,the residual stress distribution and deformation behavior under both single-layer and multilayer deposition conditions were investigated.Thermal analysis of different deposition layers in WAAM and friction stir-assisted WAAM was conducted.Results show that subsequent layer deposition induces partial remelting of the previously solidified layer,whereas FSP does not cause such remelting.Furthermore,thermal stress and deformation analysis confirm that interlayer FSP effectively mitigates residual stresses and distortion in WAAM components,thereby improving their structural integrity and mechanical properties.

文摘Emerging ferroptosis-immunotherapy strategies,integrating functionalized nanoplatforms with ferroptosis-inducing agents and immunomodulatory therapeutics,demonstrate significant potential in managing primary,recurrent,and metastatic malignancies.Mechanistically,ferroptosis induction not only directly eliminates tumor cells but also promotes immunogenic cell death(ICD),eliciting damage-associated molecular patterns(DAMPs)release to activate partial antitumor immunity.However,standalone ferroptosis therapy fails to initiate robust systemic antitumor immune responses due to inherent limitations:low tumor immunogenicity,immunosuppressive microenvironment constraints,and tumor microenvironment(TME)-associated physiological barriers(e.g.,hypoxia,dense extracellular matrix).To address these challenges,synergistic approaches have been developed to enhance immune cell infiltration and reestablish immunosurveillance,encompassing(1)direct amplification of antitumor immunity,(2)disruption of immunosuppressive tumor niches,and(3)biophysical hallmark remodeling in TME.Rational nanocarrier design has emerged as a critical enabler for overcoming biological delivery barriers and optimizing therapeutic efficacy.Unlike prior studies solely addressing ferroptosis or nanotechnology in tumor therapy,this work first systematically outlines the synergistic potential of nanoparticles in combined ferroptosis-immunotherapy strategies.It advances multidimensional nanoplatform design principles for material selection,structural configuration,physicochemical modulation,multifunctional integration,and artificial intelligence-enabled design,providing a scientific basis for efficacy optimization.Moreover,it examines translational challenges of ferroptosis-immunotherapy nanoplatforms across preclinical and clinical stages,proposing actionable solutions while envisioning future onco-immunotherapy directions.Collectively,it provides systematic insights into advanced nanomaterial design principles and therapeutic optimization strategies,offering a roadmap for accelerating clinical translation in onco-immunotherapy research.

文摘Autumn rain in western China(ARWC) is a unique and significant precipitation phenomenon that occurs during the summer-to-winter transition of the atmospheric circulation. Using the fifth generation of global climate and weather reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts and CN05.1 grid precipitation data, this study examined the anomalous characteristics and mechanisms of ARWC by combining the synergistic effect of the westerly jet and meridional wind. Over the past 60 years, ARWC has exhibited significant interdecadal and interannual variations, as well as a north-south seesaw pattern. The westerly jet index(meridional wind index) exhibited a negative(positive) correlation with precipitation in the northern autumn rain zone(NARZ), and a positive(negative) correlation with precipitation in the southern autumn rain zone(SARZ). The coupling of a weak meridional southerly wind with a southward westerly jet and a strong meridional southerly wind with a northward westerly jet are the two primary modes that synergistically influence the ARWC. These synergistic effects cause significant atmospheric changes throughout the troposphere. The contrasting circulation structure, temperature advection, vertical motion, and water vapor flux contributed to the opposite precipitation anomalies observed in the NARZ and SARZ. A new comprehensive index that reflects the coupled synergistic effect is proposed to characterize the anomalous changes in ARWC. This study improves the understanding of the anomalous characteristics and mechanisms of ARWC.

文摘The combination of Daphnes Cortex(DC)and Liquorice Root(LR),two traditional Chinese medicinal herbs,has shown significant therapeutic effects on rheumatoid arthritis(RA),but its synergistic mechanism of action remains to be elucidated.Employing a network pharmacology and molecular docking approach,this study systematically investigated the synergistic mechanism of the herb pair DC and LR in RA treatment.Active components and their corresponding targets were retrieved from the TCMSP database and relevant literature,and RA-related targets were collected from established disease databases.A total of 73 overlapping targets between DC-LR and RA were identified,among which core targets such as AKT1,TNF,and CASP3 were highlighted.GO and KEGG enrichment analyses revealed that these targets are involved in biological processes such as oxidative stress response and cell migration,and are significantly enriched in key pathways including HIF-1,TNF,and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways.Compatibility analysis further revealed that the combination of DC and LR may enhance therapeutic effects through synergistic regulation of shared targets and complementary modulation of upstream and downstream pathway components.Molecular docking confirmed strong binding affinities between core active components and key targets.This study provides a multi-dimensional“component-target-pathway”perspective on the potential synergistic anti-RA mechanism of the DC-LR herb pair,offering a theoretical basis for further experimental validation and clinical application.

文摘As a key low-carbon energy source,nuclear power plays a vital role in the global transition toward sustainable energy.Photocatalytic uranium extraction from seawater(UES)offers a promising solution to ensure long-term uranium supply but is challenged by ultra-low uranium concentrations and ion interference.To overcome these issues,we design three diketopyrrolopyrrole-based covalent organic frameworks(COFs)via a synergisticπ-extended lock and carboxyl-functionalized anchor molecular engineering strategy.Among them,TPy-DPP-COF features a covalently lockedπ-conjugated structure that enhances planarity,optimizes energy alignment,and minimizes exciton binding energy,thereby promoting charge transfer and suppressing recombination.Concurrently,carboxyl groups enable uranyl-specific coordination and create local electric fields to facilitate charge separation.These features contribute to the outstanding performance of TPy-DPP-COF,which achieves a high uranium adsorption capacity of 16.33 mg g−1 in natural seawater under irradiation,with only 29.3%capacity loss after 10 cycles,surpassing industrial benchmarks.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations and experimental studies reveal a synergistic photocatalysis-adsorption pathway,with DPP units acting as active sites for uranium reduction.This work highlights a molecular design strategy for developing efficient COF-based photocatalysts for practical marine uranium recovery.

文摘Achieving simultaneous enhancement of crystallinity and optimal domain size remains a fundamental challenge in organic photovoltaics(OPVs),where conventional crystallization strategies often trigger excessive aggregation of small-molecule acceptors.This work pioneers a kinetic paradigm for resolving the crystallinity-domain size trade-off in organic photovoltaics through dual-additive-guided stepwise crystallization.By strategically pairing 1,2-dichlorobenzene(o-DCB,low binding energy to Y6)and 1-fluoronaphthalene(FN,high binding energy),we achieve temporally decoupled crystallization control:o-DCB first mediates donor-acceptor co-crystallization during film formation,constructing a metastable network,whereupon FN induces confined Y6 crystallization within this framework during thermal annealing,refining nanostructure without over-aggregation.Morphology studies reveal that this synergy enhances crystallinity of(100)diffraction peaks by 21%–10%versus single-additive controls(o-DCB/FN alone),while maintaining optimal domain size.These morphological advantages yield balanced carrier transport(μh/μe=1.23),near-unity exciton dissociation(98.53%),and a champion power conversion efficiency(PCE)of 18.08%for PM6:Y6,significantly surpassing single-additive devices(o-DCB:17.20%;FN:17.53%).Crucially,the dual-additive strategy demonstrates universal applicability across diverse active layer systems,achieving an outstanding PCE of 19.27%in PM6:L8-BO-based devices,thereby establishing a general framework for morphology control in high-efficiency OPVs.
