文摘Light element compounds under high pressure display intriguing properties and applications,owing to their diverse bonding patterns and crystalline structures.However,the system of ternary Be-C-O compounds under high pressure,as the lightest representative of the IIA-IVA-VIA family,remains largely unexplored.Using a machine-learning-accelerated crystal structure search and first-principles calculations,Be-C-O phase diagrams are investigated at pressures ranging from 0 to 100 GPa.Four ternary compounds are proposed to be stable at corresponding pressures:BeCO_(3),Be_(2)CO_(4),Be_(2)C_(4)O_(3),and BeC_(4)O_(2).Analyses of electronic structure and chemical bonding further reveal how the structural diversity of these compounds is induced.Remarkably,Be_(2)C_(4)O_(3) and BeC_(4)O_(2) are recoverable to ambient conditions and possess both high energy density and high hardness.The volumetric energy densities of Be_(2)C_(4)O_(3) and BeC_(4)O_(2) could approach 9.03 and 7.94 kJ/cm^(3),respectively.The Vickers hardnesses of Be_(2)C_(4)O_(3) and BeC_(4)O_(2) are found to be close to 39.58 and 51.57 GPa,respectively.These findings demonstrate the structural and functional diversity of Be-C-O compounds under high pressure,providing guidance for further exploration of the IIA-IVA-VIA compounds.

文摘Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation(MICP)is an eco-friendly technology for soil improvement.Although numerous experiments have been conducted to solidify sand foundations using MICP,the mechanisms by which grain interfacial morphologies influencethe MICP process remain unclear.This study utilized 3D-printed flowcells with different boundary morphologies to investigate the effects of interfacial morphologies on the MICP process.CaCO_(3)precipitation characteristics were investigated through microscopic observation and image quantificationanalysis.The results indicate that low flowvelocities near the interface promote bacterial accumulation due to reduced hydrodynamic shear forces.Rough interfaces,compared to smooth ones,enhance bacterial adsorption owing to the larger regions of low flowvelocity,increased surface area,and the formation of local eddies,which promote greater CaCO_(3)precipitation.Compared to the regions away from the interface,a higher abundance of small CaCO_(3)crystals is observed near the interface because of the high urease activity from bacteria and the reduced shear-induced entrainment due to the low flowvelocity.Besides,larger crystals also preferentially precipitate in proximity to interfaces as the low flowvelocity enhances crystal growth according to the particle attachment theory.The presence of rough interfaces further reduces flowvelocities,leading to the precipitation of larger and more densely packed CaCO_(3)crystals.Therefore,rough interfaces promote the microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation.This work is expected to enhance the understanding of microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation characteristics on solid surfaces such as soil grains and contribute to the optimization of MICP applications.

文摘The generation of human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived motor neurons overcomes limited access to human tissues and offers an unprecedented approach to modeling motor neuron diseases such as dystonia and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis.Motor neurons generated through different strategies may exhibit substantial differences in purity,maturation,characterization,and even neuronal identity,leading to variable outcomes in disease modeling and drug screening.However,very few comparative studies have been conducted to determine the similarities and differences among motor neurons prepared via different protocols.In this study,we prepared human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived motor neurons via lentiviral delivery of transcription factors and chemical induction and performed a systematic comparative analysis.We found that motor neurons generated by both approaches showed typical motor neuron morphology and robustly expressed motor neuron-specific markers,such as nuclear homeobox transcription factor 9 and choline acetyltransferase.The chemical induction protocol utilizes a combination of small molecules to induce motor neuron differentiation,offering a significantly faster maturation time of 35 days compared to 46 days with lentiviral delivery of transcription factors.Additionally,while lentiviral delivery of transcription factors are suitable for downstream biochemical analysis,chemical induction are more applicable for therapeutic approaches as they avoid the use of lentiviruses.Both approaches produce motor neurons with high purity(>95%)and yield.No significant differences were found between chemical induction and lentiviral delivery of transcription factors in terms of motor neuron markers and maturation markers.These robust methodologies offer researchers powerful tools for investigating motor neuron diseases and potential therapeutic strategies.

文摘The loss of control over movement is one of the most devastating consequences of Parkinson’s disease(PD).The loss of control largely results from the gradual but inexorable destruction of dopamine-producing neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta.As dopamine levels fall,the ability to initiate,control,learn,and sustain actions declines.Treatment with the dopamine precursor levodopa can partly overcome motor impairments;however,years of use often leads to levodopa-induced dyskinesia(LID),a debilitating condition characterized by uncontrolled writhing and ballistic movements,making continued treatment difficult or impossible.While progress has been made towards unraveling the molecular and cellular processes driving the development of LID,far less is known about the changes in ongoing neuronal activity that contribute to LID expression.

文摘Previous research has demonstrated the feasibility of repairing nerve defects through acellular allogeneic nerve grafting with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.However,adult tissue–derived mesenchymal stem cells encounter various obstacles,including limited tissue sources,invasive acquisition methods,cellular heterogeneity,purification challenges,cellular senescence,and diminished pluripotency and proliferation over successive passages.In this study,we used induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells,known for their self-renewal capacity,multilineage differentiation potential,and immunomodulatory characteristics.We used induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells in conjunction with acellular nerve allografts to address a 10 mm-long defect in a rat model of sciatic nerve injury.Our findings reveal that induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells exhibit survival for up to 17 days in a rat model of peripheral nerve injury with acellular nerve allograft transplantation.Furthermore,the combination of acellular nerve allograft and induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells significantly accelerates the regeneration of injured axons and improves behavioral function recovery in rats.Additionally,our in vivo and in vitro experiments indicate that induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells play a pivotal role in promoting neovascularization.Collectively,our results suggest the potential of acellular nerve allografts with induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells to augment nerve regeneration in rats,offering promising therapeutic strategies for clinical translation.

文摘The metal‐reduction‐induced dechlorination coupling(MR-DC)strategy enables the first successful synthesis of an all‐inorganic crosslinked phosphazene network(aPN)from hexachlorocyclotriphosphazene(HCCP)under mild reaction conditions.Using Cu as a model,the resulting Cu-aPN(copper‐embedded all‐inorganic phosphazene network)retains the intrinsic N_(3)P_(3)backbone and exhibits an amorphous structure where Cu species are uniformly anchored at dense P/N coordination sites of the network.Time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry(TOF‐SIMS)and X‐ray diffraction(XRD)reveal a gradual CuCl‐to‐CuO phase conversion during ammonia treatment,which effectively ensures the structural stability of the phosphazene framework.In 1 M KOH,Cu-aPN delivers an overpotential of 280 mV at 10 mA cm^(−2)and a Tafel slope of 48 mV dec^(−1),markedly outperforming Ga-aPN.In situ Raman and density functional theory(DFT)analyses indicate stronger Cu-P/N coordination coupling that lowers the*OH formation barrier(0.39 vs.0.88 eV for Ga).This MR-DC route furnishes a general and versatile pathway for constructing metal‐embedded all‐inorganic phosphazene frameworks with tunable coordination environments for advanced electrocatalytic applications.
文摘BACKGROUND The discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells revolutionized regenerative medicine,providing a source for generating induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells(iMSCs).AIM To evaluate and compare five iMSC differentiation protocols,assessing their efficiency,phenotypic characteristics,and functional properties relative to primary mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs).METHODS Five iMSC differentiation protocols were assessed:SB431542-based differentiation(iMSC1,iMSC3),an iMatrix-free method(iMSC2),growth factor supplementation(iMSC4),and embryoid body formation with retinoic acid(EB-iMSC).iMSC identity was confirmed according to the International Society for Cell&Gene Therapy 2006 criteria,requiring expression of surface markers(CD105,CD73,CD90)and absence of pluripotency markers.Functional assays were conducted to evaluate differentiation potential(osteogenic and adipogenic),proliferation,mitochondrial function,reactive oxygen species,senescence,and migration.RESULTS All iMSC types expressed MSC markers and lacked pluripotency markers.EBiMSC and iMSC2 showed enhanced osteogenesis(runt-related transcription factor 2;P≤0.01 and P≤0.0001,respectively),while adipogenic potential was reduced in iMSC2(Adipsin;P≤0.01)and EB-iMSC(Adipsin and peroxisome proliferatoractivated receptor gamma;P≤0.0001 and P≤0.01,respectively).Proliferation was comparable or superior to bone marrow MSCs,except in iMSC1,with iMSC4 showing the highest rate(MTT assay;P values ranged from 0.01 to 0.001).Despite reduced mitochondrial health in iMSC3 and iMSC4(P≤0.001),reactive oxygen species levels were lower in all iMSCs(P values ranged from 0.001 to 0.0001),and senescence was significantly reduced in all iMSCs with the exception of iMSC1(P values ranged from 0.01 to 0.0001).Migration was most reduced in iMSC4(P≤0.001 at 24 hours and P≤0.0001 at 48 hours).CONCLUSION While all protocols generated functional iMSCs,variations in differentiation,proliferation,and function emphasize the impact of protocol selection.These findings contribute to optimizing iMSC generation for research and clinical applications.

文摘Microbially induced calcite precipitation(MICP)and Enzyme induced calcite precipitation(EICP)techniques were implemented to reinforce the large-scale calcareous sand in this study.Then a coupled numerical model to predict the biochemical reactions and hydraulic characteristics of MICP and EICP reactions was proposed and verified by physical experiments.Results showed that:This model could describe the variations of bacteria,calcium,calcite,permeability over time reasonably.It is necessary to consider the influence of the calculation domain scale when simulating the convection-diffusionreaction in the multi-process of MICP and EICP reactions.The numerical and experimental values of calcite content are 0.841 g/cm^(3) and 0.861 g/cm^(3) for MICP-reinforced sand,0.263 g/cm^(3) and 0.227 g/cm^(3) for EICP-reinforced sand after 192 h of reaction.The reaction rate k_(rea) is an important parameter to control the calcite content.Accordingly,the permeability coefficient of MICP and EICP reinforced calcareous sand decreases by 32%and 18%.Due to the influence of substance transportation and calcite precipitation,the calcite shows a trend of decreasing firstly and then increasing with the enhancing of the initial permeability coefficient in biochemical reactions.The optimal injecting ratio q11:q12 in this study is 100:300 mL/min.The process for the application of MICP and EICP coupled numerical model is also recommended,which provides reference for engineering projects in ground improvement.

文摘Heterogeneous structure exhibits superiority in improving mechanical properties,whereas their effects on fatigue damage properties have rarely been studied.In this work,we employed a high-throughput gradient heat treatment method(757−857℃)to rapidly acquire the solution microstructure of the Ti-6554 alloy with different recrystallization degrees(0%,40%and 100%),followed by the same aging treatment.The results showed that theβ-hetero structure exhibited a yield strength(σ_(YS))of 1403 MPa,an increase of 6.7%,and a remarkable improvement in uniform elongation(UE)of 109.7%,reaching 6.5%,compared to the homogeneous structure.Interestingly,introducing a heterogeneous structure not only overcame the traditional trade-off between strength and ductility but also enhanced fatigue crack propagation(FCP)performance.During FCP process,β-hetero structure,through hetero-deformation induced(HDI)strengthening effects,promoted the accumulation of geometric necessary dislocations(GNDs)within coarseα_(S) phase,enabling faster attainment of the critical shear stress of twinning and increasing twinning density.This facilitated stress relief,improved plastic deformation in the crack tip zone,and increased the critical fast fracture threshold from 30.4 to 36.0 MPa·m^(1/2)showing an enlarged steady state propagation region.This study provides valuable insights on tailoring fatigue damage tolerance through heterogeneous structure for titanium alloys.

文摘Microglial activation that occurs rapidly after closed head injury may play important and complex roles in neuroinflammation-associated neuronal damage and repair.We previously reported that induced neural stem cells can modulate the behavior of activated microglia via CXCL12/CXCR4 signaling,influencing their activation such that they can promote neurological recovery.However,the mechanism of CXCR4 upregulation in induced neural stem cells remains unclear.In this study,we found that nuclear factor-κB activation induced by closed head injury mouse serum in microglia promoted CXCL12 and tumor necrosis factor-αexpression but suppressed insulin-like growth factor-1 expression.However,recombinant complement receptor 2-conjugated Crry(CR2-Crry)reduced the effects of closed head injury mouse serum-induced nuclear factor-κB activation in microglia and the levels of activated microglia,CXCL12,and tumor necrosis factor-α.Additionally,we observed that,in response to stimulation(including stimulation by CXCL12 secreted by activated microglia),CXCR4 and Crry levels can be upregulated in induced neural stem cells via the interplay among CXCL12/CXCR4,Crry,and Akt signaling to modulate microglial activation.In agreement with these in vitro experimental results,we found that Akt activation enhanced the immunoregulatory effects of induced neural stem cell grafts on microglial activation,leading to the promotion of neurological recovery via insulin-like growth factor-1 secretion and the neuroprotective effects of induced neural stem cell grafts through CXCR4 and Crry upregulation in the injured cortices of closed head injury mice.Notably,these beneficial effects of Akt activation in induced neural stem cells were positively correlated with the therapeutic effects of induced neural stem cells on neuronal injury,cerebral edema,and neurological disorders post–closed head injury.In conclusion,our findings reveal that Akt activation may enhance the immunoregulatory effects of induced neural stem cells on microglial activation via upregulation of CXCR4 and Crry,thereby promoting induced neural stem cell–mediated improvement of neuronal injury,cerebral edema,and neurological disorders following closed head injury.

文摘To investigate the wind⁃induced vibration re⁃sponse characteristics of multispan double⁃layer cable photo⁃voltaic(PV)support structures,wind tunnel tests using an aeroelastic model were carried out to obtain the wind⁃induced vibration response data of a three⁃span four⁃row double⁃layer cable PV support system.The wind⁃induced vibration characteristics with different PV module tilt angles,wind speeds,and wind direction angles were analyzed.The results showed that the double⁃layer cable large⁃span flexible PV support can effectively control the wind⁃induced vibration response and prevent the occur⁃rence of flutter under strong wind conditions.The maxi⁃mum value of the wind⁃induced vibration displacement of the flexible PV support system occurs in the windward first row.The upstream module has a significant shading effect on the downstream module,with a maximum effect of 23%.The most unfavorable wind direction angles of the structure are 0°and 180°.The change of the wind direction angle in the range of 0°to 30°has little effect on the wind vi⁃bration response.The change in the tilt angle of the PV modules has a greater impact on the wind vibration in the downwind direction and a smaller impact in the upwind di⁃rection.Special attention should be paid to the structural wind⁃resistant design of such systems in the upwind side span.
