Nevertheless, conventional synthesis methods usually require expensive structure-directing agents(SDAs), pricey raw materials, and eco-unfriendly fluorine-containing additives. Here, we contributed a cost-effective and fluoride-free synthesis method for synthesizing high-quality MFI zeolite nanosheets through a Silicalite-1(Sil-1) seed suspension and urea cooperative strategy, only with inexpensive colloidal silica as the Si source. Our approach was effective for synthesizing both Sil-1 and aluminum-containing ZSM-5 nanosheets. By optimizing key synthesis parameters,including seed aging time, seed quantity, and urea concentration, we achieved precise control over the crystal face aspect ratio and b-axis thickness. We also revealed a non-classical oriented nanosheet growth mechanism, where Sil-1 seeds induced the formation of quasi-ordered precursor particles, and the(010)crystal planes of these particles facilitated urea adsorption, thereby promoting c-axis-oriented growth.The obtained ZSM-5 nanosheets exhibited exceptional catalytic performance in the benzene alkylation with ethanol, maintaining stability for over 500 h, which is 5 times longer than traditional ZSM-5 catalysts. Furthermore, large-scale production of ZSM-5 nanosheets was successfully carried out in a 3 L highpressure autoclave, yielding samples consistent with those from laboratory-scale synthesis. This work marks a significant step forward in the sustainable and efficient production of MFI nanosheets using inexpensive and environmentally friendly raw materials, offering the broad applicability in catalysis.展开更多

文摘High temperature stress (HT) significantly reduces maize yield by impairing starch accumulation in kernels.However,the mechanism by which HT affects starch synthesis remains controversial-whether through reduced assimilate supply or direct inhibition on kernel metabolism.To clarify these mechanisms,a heat-sensitive maize hybrid,Xianyu 335 (XY),was exposed to 30℃/20℃ (maximum/minimum temperature,control) and 40℃/30℃ for seven consecutive days during the seed setting stage.Synchronous pollination (SP),apical pollination (AP),and shading treatments were applied to manipulate the inherent source–sink ratio in maize plants.Results showed that apical kernel weight decreased by 11.9%under 40℃ in the SP treatment.The ^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and cell-wall invertase (CWIN) activity also declined by 15.9,36.7,and 16.4%,respectively,under HT.In the shading treatment,40℃/30℃ caused even greater reductions in^(13)C content,starch accumulation,and CWIN activity due to diminished assimilate supply.Conversely,in the AP treatment,starch content and CWIN activity increased by 22.0 and 18.5%,respectively,under 40℃/30℃,resulting in kernel weight and ^(13)C content similar to those in SP and shading treatments regardless of temperature.Consistent with apical kernels under AP,HT did not negatively affect middle kernels in either SP or shading treatments,as kernel weight and starch content remained unchanged under HT.Although all kernels were exposed to the same HT or control environment,their responses varied a lot.The impaired starch synthesis in apical kernels under HT was rescued by increasing carbon supply via AP treatment.The contrasting performance among middle kernels,apical kernels under AP,and apical kernels under SP or shading indicates that reduced carbon supply is a critical factor underlying inhibited starch accumulation.Our findings provide a theoretical basis for further understanding kernel abortion under HT.

文摘Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for severe nosocomial infections.This multidrug-resistant bacterium can cause pneumonia and cystic fibrosis,both of which are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates.The lipopolysaccharide of P.aeruginosa serves as an attractive target for the development of effective glycoconjugate vaccines.In this article,we report the first chemical synthesis of the highly challenging tetrasaccharide repeating unit of the P.aeruginosa serotype O3 O-antigen using a two-directional[1+(2+1)]glycosylation strategy.The synthesis is particularly challenging due to the poor nucleophilicity of the axial C4 hydroxyl group of l-galactose and the steric hindrance imposed by the 3S-hydroxybutyryl(Hb)chain.Furthermore,the presence of an acetyl group at the ortho position relative to the glycosylation site on l-galactose can lead to undesirable acetyl migration.Additionally,it is noteworthy that the selective removal of a 2-naphthylmethyl ether(Nap)during the late stages of synthesis,particularly in the presence of multiple benzyl groups,can be somewhat challenging to predict.Through the careful selection of synthetic strategies,building blocks,and optimized reaction conditions,we achieved the stereoselective glycosylations,selective oxidation of primary alcohols,remarkable enhancement of acceptor activity,and efficient introduction of the 3S-Hb group.The synthetic methodology presented in this work serves as a valuable reference for the preparation of structurally related oligosaccharides.By incorporating an aminopropyl linker,the target tetrasaccharide facilitates glycan microarray preparation and in vivo immunological assessments,thereby accelerating progress toward a synthetic glycoconjugate vaccine for P.aeruginosa.

文摘For decades,the central dogma of oncology has been that a cancer’s identity is inextricably linked to its anatomical origin.This principle underpins the entire diagnostic and therapeutic framework,from histology-based classification to site-specific treatment guidelines.Yet,this framework catastrophically fails for a substantial population of patients diagnosed with cancer of unknown primary(CUP).These patients present metastatic disease,yet their primary tumors remain elusive despite exhaustive clinical workup1.CUP,accounting for 1%-3%of all cancer diagnoses,is an enigma with devastating consequences;the median overall survival is only 2-12 months2-4.The inability to pinpoint an origin forces clinicians to rely on broad-spectrum empirical chemotherapy,such as taxane-carboplatin regimens,which have limited efficacy and exclude patients from the promise of targeted therapies and clinical trials5.CUP is not only a diagnostic challenge but also an indictment of the siloed approach to understanding malignancy:this cancer highlights the limitations of origin-based diagnostic frameworks.However,the confluence of high-dimensional biological data and advanced artificial intelligence(AI)is now poised to address this long-standing diagnostic limitation and to herald a new era for not only CUP but also oncology as a whole(Figure 1).

文摘Graphdiyne(GDY)is a two-dimensional carbon allotrope with exceptional physical and chemical properties that is gaining increasing attention.However,its efficient and scalable synthesis remains a significant challenge.We present a microwave-assisted approach for its continuous,large-scale production which enables synthesis at a rate of 0.6 g/h,with a yield of up to 90%.The synthesized GDY nanosheets have an average diameter of 246 nm and a thickness of 4 nm.We used GDY as a stable coating for potassium(K)metal anodes(K@GDY),taking advantage of its unique molecular structure to provide favorable paths for K-ion transport.This modification significantly inhibited dendrite formation and improved the cycling stability of K metal batteries.Full-cells with perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride(PTCDA)cathodes showed the clear superiority of the K@GDY anodes over bare K anodes in terms of performance,stability,and cycle life.The K@GDY maintained a stable voltage plateau and gave an excellent capacity retention after 600 cycles with nearly 100%Coulombic efficiency.This work not only provides a scalable and efficient way for GDY synthesis but also opens new possibilities for its use in energy storage and other advanced technologies.

文摘Zeolite nanosheets with a short b-axis thickness are highly desirable in lots of catalytic reactions due to their reduced diffusion resistance. Nevertheless, conventional synthesis methods usually require expensive structure-directing agents(SDAs), pricey raw materials, and eco-unfriendly fluorine-containing additives. Here, we contributed a cost-effective and fluoride-free synthesis method for synthesizing high-quality MFI zeolite nanosheets through a Silicalite-1(Sil-1) seed suspension and urea cooperative strategy, only with inexpensive colloidal silica as the Si source. Our approach was effective for synthesizing both Sil-1 and aluminum-containing ZSM-5 nanosheets. By optimizing key synthesis parameters,including seed aging time, seed quantity, and urea concentration, we achieved precise control over the crystal face aspect ratio and b-axis thickness. We also revealed a non-classical oriented nanosheet growth mechanism, where Sil-1 seeds induced the formation of quasi-ordered precursor particles, and the(010)crystal planes of these particles facilitated urea adsorption, thereby promoting c-axis-oriented growth.The obtained ZSM-5 nanosheets exhibited exceptional catalytic performance in the benzene alkylation with ethanol, maintaining stability for over 500 h, which is 5 times longer than traditional ZSM-5 catalysts. Furthermore, large-scale production of ZSM-5 nanosheets was successfully carried out in a 3 L highpressure autoclave, yielding samples consistent with those from laboratory-scale synthesis. This work marks a significant step forward in the sustainable and efficient production of MFI nanosheets using inexpensive and environmentally friendly raw materials, offering the broad applicability in catalysis.

文摘Ammonia is the cornerstone of modern agriculture,providing a critical nitrogen source for global food production and serving as a key raw material for numerous industrial chemicals.Electrocatalytic nitrate reduction,as an environmentally friendly method for synthesizing ammonia,not only mitigates the reliance on current ammonia synthesis processes fed by traditional fossil fuels but also effectively reduces nitrate pollution resulting from agricultural and industrial activities.This review explores the fundamental principles of electrocata lytic nitrate reduction,focusing on the key steps of electron transfer and ammonia formation.Additionally,it summarizes the critical factors influencing the performance and selectivity of the reaction,including the properties of the electrolyte,operating voltage,electrode materials,and design of the electrolytic cell.Further discussion of recent advances in electrocatalysts,including pure metal catalysts,metal oxide catalysts,non-metallic catalysts,and composite catalysts,highlights their significant roles in enhancing both the efficiency and selectivity of electrocata lytic nitrate to ammonia(NRA)reactions.Critical challenges for the industrial NRA trials and further outlooks are outlined to propel this strategy toward real-world applications.Overall,the review provides an in-depth overview and comprehensive understanding of electrocata lytic NRA technology,thereby promoting further advancements and innovations in this domain.
文摘Neurons are highly polarized cells with axons reaching over a meter long in adult humans.To survive and maintain their proper function,neurons depend on specific mechanisms that regulate spatiotemporal signaling and metabolic events,which need to be carried out at the right place,time,and intensity.Such mechanisms include axonal transport,local synthesis,and liquid-liquid phase separations.Alterations and malfunctions in these processes are correlated to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS).

文摘Background Milk synthesis is an energy-intensive process influenced by oxygen availability.This study investigates how hypoxia affects milk synthesis in BMECs,focusing on key genes involved in lactation and energy metabolism.Methods BMECs were cultured in a normoxic environment and then transferred to a hypoxia chamber with 1%O2 for specified durations.The study evaluated cellular responses through various molecular experiments and RNA sequencing.Small interfering RNA was employed to knock down HIF-1αto investigate whether the lactation-related phenotype alteration depends on HIF-1α.Results Hypoxia disrupted milk protein production by reducing mTOR/P70S6K/4EBP1 signaling and downregulating genes critical for amino acid transport and protein synthesis.Triglyceride synthesis increased due to enhanced fatty acid uptake and the upregulation of regulatory proteins,including FASN and PPARγ.Although glucose uptake was elevated under hypoxia,key enzymes for lactose synthesis were downregulated,suggesting a redirection of glucose toward energy production.Mitochondrial function was impaired under hypoxia,with reduced gene expression in TCA cycle,ETC,cytosol-mitochondrial transport,decreased ATP levels,increased ROS levels,and structural alterations.Additionally,lipid synthesis and glucose uptake depend on HIF-1α,while milk protein synthesis alterations occurred independently of HIF-1α.Conclusions Hypoxia alters milk synthesis in BMECs by disrupting milk protein synthesis,enhancing lipid metabolism,and impairing energy production.These findings provide valuable insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of oxygen deprivation on lactation efficiency,offering potential targets for mitigating hypoxic stress in the mammary glands of dairy animals.
