文摘Additive manufacturing(AM)has revolutionized the production of metal bone implants,enabling unprecedented levels of customization and functionality.Recent advancements in surface-modification technologies have been crucial in enhancing the performance and biocompatibility of implants.Through leveraging the versatility of AM techniques,particularly powder bed fusion,a range of metallic biomaterials,including stainless steel,titanium,and biodegradable alloys,can be utilized to fabricate implants tailored for craniofacial,trunk,and limb bone reconstructions.However,the potential of AM is contingent on addressing intrinsic defects that may hinder implant performance.Techniques such as sandblasting,chemical treatment,electropolishing,heat treatment,and laser technology effectively remove residual powder and improve the surface roughness of these implants.The development of functional coatings,applied via both dry and wet methods,represents a significant advancement in surface modification research.These coatings not only improve mechanical and biological interactions at the implant-bone interface but also facilitate controlled drug release and enhance antimicrobial properties.Addition-ally,micro-and nanoscale surface modifications using chemical and laser techniques can precisely sculpt implant surfaces to promote the desired cellular responses.This detailed exploration of surface engineering offers a wealth of opportunities for creating next-generation implants that are not only biocompatible but also bioactive,laying the foundation for more effective solutions in bone reconstruction.
文摘The methylation of DNA is a prevalent epigenetic modification that plays a crucial role in the pathological progression of ocular diseases.DNA methylation can regulate gene expression,thereby affecting cell function and signal transduction.Ophthalmic diseases are a kind of complex diseases,and their pathogenesis involves many factors such as genetic,environmental and individual differences.In addition,inflammation,oxidative stress and lipid metabolism,which abnormal DNA methylation is closely related to,are also considered to be major factors in eye diseases.The current understanding of DNA methylation in eye diseases is becoming more complex and comprehensive.In addition to the simple suppression of gene expression by hypermethylation,factors such as hypomethylation or demethylation,DNA methylation in non-promoter regions,interactions with other epigenetic modifications,and dynamic changes in DNA methylation must also be considered.Interestingly,although some genes are at abnormal methylation levels,their expression is not significantly changed,which indirectly reflects the complexity of gene regulation.This review aims to summarize and compare some relevant studies,and provide with new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of different eye diseases,such as glaucoma,retinoblastoma,and diabetic retinopathy.

文摘Paraphenylenediamine(PPDA)-grafted maleic anhydride(MAH)-modified graphene oxide(PGO)was synthesized through a dual modification process.Initially,MAH was employed to modify graphene oxide(GO)to enhance its reactive sites.Subsequently,PPDA was utilized for further modification of MAH-modified GO(MGO).Through a comprehensive analysis,the successful grafting of MAH and PPDA onto GO was confirmed.It was concurrently established that the optimal ratio of PPDA to MGO is 1:1.This approach yielded PGO characterized by outstanding dispersibility and barrier properties in epoxy resin(EP)coaings for Q235 steel.The corrosion resistance of EP coatings containing varying amounts of PGO was assessed using electrochemical workstation and salt spray testing.After immersing in a 3.5 wt.%NaCl solution for 300 h,the composite coating containing 0.1 wt.%PGO exhibited superior performance in terms of low-frequency impedance modulus,measuring at 1.1×10^(8)Ωcm^(2).The lowest corrosion current density was 2.32×10^(–10)A cm^(−2),and the self-corrosion voltage was−0.301 V.Additionally,polarization testing indicated that this coating also displayed the lowest corrosion rate,specifically 1.383×10^(–7)mm/a.
文摘Parkinson’s disease is a complex,progressive neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by the degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra,leading to motor and non-motor symptoms.While symptomatic treatments such as levodopa and monoamine oxidase-B inhibitors offer short-term relief,they do not halt disease progression.In recent years,significant advances have been made in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying Parkinson’s disease,including alpha-synuclein aggregation,mitochondrial dysfunction,neuroinflammation,and lysosomal impairment.These insights have spurred the development of targeted therapeutic strategies aimed at modifying disease progression.This review comprehensively explores emerging approaches such as gene and cell therapies,LRRK2 inhibitors,alpha-synuclein immunotherapy,and gut microbiota modulation.We also discuss the therapeutic potential of mitophagy activators,digital biomarkers,and neuromodulation techniques.Each therapeutic strategy is critically evaluated in the context of underlying pathophysiological mechanisms.Special attention is given to recent clinical trials(2023–2025),translational gaps,and the potential of personalized medicine in Parkinson’s disease management.Furthermore,we examine the integration of multi-omics data and digital tools in advancing precision therapeutics.Overall,this review highlights current challenges and future prospects in the journey toward disease-modifying interventions that move beyond symptomatic relief.

文摘Self-assembled prodrug nanomedicine has emerged as an advanced platform for antitumor therapy,mainly comprise drug modules,response modules and modification modules.However,existing studies usually compare the differences between single types of modification modules,neglecting the impact of steric-hindrance effect caused by chemical structure.Herein,single-tailed modification module with low-steric-hindrance effect and two-tailed modification module with high-steric-hindrance effect were selected to construct paclitaxel prodrugs(P-LA_(C18)and P-BAC18),and the in-depth insights of the sterichindrance effect on prodrug nanoassemblies were explored.Notably,the size stability of the two-tailed prodrugs was enhanced due to improved intermolecular interactions and steric hindrance.Single-tailed prodrug nanoassemblies were more susceptible to attack by redox agents,showing faster drug release and stronger antitumor efficacy,but with poorer safety.In contrast,two-tailed prodrug nanoassemblies exhibited significant advantages in terms of pharmacokinetics,tumor accumulation and safety due to the good size stability,thus ensuring equivalent antitumor efficacy at tolerance dose.These findings highlighted the critical role of steric-hindrance effect of the modification module in regulating the structureactivity relationship of prodrug nanoassemblies and proposed new perspectives into the precise design of self-assembled prodrugs for high-performance cancer therapeutics.

文摘Food packaging is becoming popular as the consumption of ready-to-eat food products rises.Easyto-use,non-biodegradable plastic packaging is commonly used in food packaging,contributing to the deteriorating environmental situation.This issue increases the concern for the environment and encourages the usage of alternative materials.Cellulose nanofibrils(CNF)are abundant and biodegradable,which makes them ideal candidates to replace plastic coatings.The ability to form H-bonds between the hydroxyl groups makes coated paper with CNF have good strength,but poor barrier properties.The barrier properties can be improved by grafting DMAEMA or HEMA onto CNF(CNF-g-PDMAEMA and CNF-g-PHEMA,respectively).Thus,the objective of this study was to modify CNF chemically to enhance the barrier properties of the food packaging paper.It was found that paper coated with CNFg-PDMAEMA and CNF-g-PHEMA exhibited improvements in mechanical and barrier properties while maintaining the desired viscosity for the coating process.The water contact angle increased for paper coated with CNF-g-PHEMA and CNF-g-PDMAEMA,reaching a maximum of 97.51°and 92.58°,respectively with the decreasing Cobb_(60) values by 49% and 11%.The oil absorption was also reduced for both coated papers compared to the blank paper.Mechanical properties improved,as indicated by a 3% increase in tensile strength for paper coated with CNF-g-PHEMA and a 5% for paper coated with CNF-g-PDMAEMA.The results indicated significant potential for the application of modified CNF in coatings for food packaging paper.Noteworthy,the grafting process should be improved to enhance the mechanical and barrier properties of the coated paper.

文摘Four types of submicron Ag-coated Cu particles with different Ag contents were prepared as sintering paste fillers,and the Ag contents of the particles were measured to be 10,20,30,and 40 wt.%.Four types of particles(in order of increasing Ag content:A10,A20,A30,and A40)were surface-modified with stearic acid,to suppress the Ag shell dewetting and improve sinterability.The surface-modified particles were mixed with a polyol-based solvent to fabricate a resin-free paste.Subsequently,the pastes were screen-printed onto a slide glass and sintered at 250°C in a nitrogen atmosphere for 1-10 min to form an electrode.The electrical resistivity of the sintered film as a function of sintering time was measured using a four-point probe.All the four surface-modified Cu@Ag particles with different Ag contents exhibited decreased electrical resistivity.Particularly,the largest difference in values after and before the surface modification was observed for A40 with the highest Ag content;the electrical resistivities of the initial and surface-modified particles were 1.51×10^(-4) and 6.67×10^(-5)Ω·cm,respectively,after sintering for 10 min.The findings of this study confirmed that the surface modification using stearic acid effectively suppressed the dewetting of the Ag shell and improved the sinterability of the submicron Cu@Ag particles.

文摘RNA modifications play vital regulatory roles in biological systems.Dysregulated RNA modifications themselves or their regulators are associated with various diseases,including cancers and immune related diseases.However,to the best of our knowledge,RNA modifications in peripheral white blood cells(immune cells)have not been systematically investigated before.Here we utilized hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry(HILIC-MS/MS)for the quantification of 19 chemical modifications in total RNA and 17 chemical modifications in small RNA in peripheral white blood cells from breast cancer patients and healthy controls.We found out 13 RNA modifications were up-regulated in total RNA samples of breast cancer patients.For small RNA samples,only N6-methyladenosine(m^(6)A)was down-regulated in breast cancer patients(P<0.0001).Receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curves analysis showed that N4-acetylcytidine(ac^(4)C)in total RNA had an area under curve(AUC)value of 0.833,and m^(6)A in small RNA had an AUC value of 0.994.Our results further illustrated that RNA modifications may play vital roles in immune cell biology of breast cancer,and may act as novel biomarkers for the diagnosis of breast cancer.

文摘Potassium-ion batteries(PIBs)are considered as a promising energy storage system owing to its abundant potassium resources.As an important part of the battery composition,anode materials play a vital role in the future development of PIBs.Bismuth-based anode materials demonstrate great potential for storing potassium ions(K^(+))due to their layered structure,high theoretical capacity based on the alloying reaction mechanism,and safe operating voltage.However,the large radius of K^(+)inevitably induces severe volume expansion in depotassiation/potassiation,and the sluggish kinetics of K^(+)insertion/extraction limits its further development.Herein,we summarize the strategies used to improve the potassium storage properties of various types of materials and introduce recent advances in the design and fabrication of favorable structural features of bismuth-based materials.Firstly,this review analyzes the structure,working mechanism and advantages and disadvantages of various types of materials for potassium storage.Then,based on this,the manuscript focuses on summarizing modification strategies including structural and morphological design,compositing with other materials,and electrolyte optimization,and elucidating the advantages of various modifications in enhancing the potassium storage performance.Finally,we outline the current challenges of bismuth-based materials in PIBs and put forward some prospects to be verified.

文摘The adsorption of pollutants can not only promote the direct surface reaction,but also modify the catalyst itself to improve its photoelectric characteristics,which is rarely studied for water treatment with inorganic photocatalyst.A highly crystalline BiOBr(c-BiOBr)was synthesized by a two-step preparation process.Owing to the calcination,the highly crystalline enhanced the interface interaction between pollutant and c-BiOBr.The complex of organic pollutant and[Bi_(2)O_(2)]^(2+)could promote the active electron transfer from the adsorbed pollutant to c-BiOBr for the direct pollutant degradation by holes(h^(+)).Moreover,the pollutant adsorption actually modified c-BiOBr and promoted more unpaired electrons,which would coupling with the photoexcitation to promote generate more O_(2)^(•-).The molecular modification effect derived from pollutant adsorption significantly improved the removal of pollutants.This work strongly deepens the understanding of the molecularmodification effect from the pollutant adsorption and develops a novel and efficient approach for water treatment.
