    查看更多>>摘要:AIEgens can serve as an effective platform for the construction of photosensitizer-based immunogenic cell death(ICD)inducers.To date,several mitochondria or endoplasmic reticulum(ER)-targeted aggregation-induced emission(AIE)molecules have been developed and have evoked massive ICD in cells.However,due to the complex physicochemical environment in cells,these small AIE molecules cannot maintain a stable aggregate state,which not only affects the fluorescence intensity of the photosensitizer but also decreases the generation of reactive oxygen species(ROS),and thus reducing the effect of the photo-sensitizer to elicit ICD.AIEgen-based nanomicelles,which maintain a stable micellar structure,can pre-vent defects of AIE molecules in photodynamic therapy(PDT)applications.Therefore,in this study,a mitochondria-targeted AIE nanophotosensitizer was synthesized and used as a highly potent ICD inducer for vaccine preparation and tumor prevention.

    查看更多>>摘要:The platinum-based chemotherapy is a routine strategy for the treatment of ovarian cancer,while it is prone to chemoresistance in clinical,which hinders the treatment.Therefore,it is urgently needed to elucidate the underlying mechanism of drug resistance and form the appropriate strategy.The sequenc-ing results showed that cisplatin(DDP)resistant ovarian cancer overexpressed BTB and CNC homology 1(BACH1),and up-regulated the"don't eat me"signal CD47.We identified that hemin,a BACH1 in-hibitor,could effectively down-regulate BACH1 and simultaneously inhibit CD47.Moreover,hemin has a synergistic effect with DDP.We designed a pH-responsive nanoparticle(H/D@FA-CaP-NPs)in which folic acid(FA)ensured targeting of ovarian cancer cells,while hemin inhibited BACH1 as well as down-regulated CD47,achieving the promotion of apoptosis of tumor cells and inducing phagocytosis of tumors by macrophages.Moreover,hemin has a synergistic effect with DDP to promote apoptosis of tumor cells.Structurally,hemin and DDP was encapsulated within hydrophobic 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-ethanolamine(DSPE)to form a tight core,and hydrophilic polyethylene glycol 2000(PEG2000)and cal-cium phosphate(CaP)formed the outside shell,and FA was modified on the surface of nanoparticles.In terms of function,(a)FA enhanced the active targeting of nanoparticles to tumors;(b)NPs targeted mi-tochondria to induce reactive oxygen species(ROS)production;(c)hemin encapsulated in nanoparticles could specifically target BACH1,thereby down regulating CD47;(d)hemin had a synergistic effect with DDP,thus augmenting the chemotherapy.Altogether,mitochondria-targeted nanoparticles H/D@FA-CaP-NPs promoted tumor apoptosis and mobilized phagocytosis to treat tumor,providing a novel scheme for clinical treatment of cisplatin-resistant ovarian carcinoma.

    查看更多>>摘要:Diagnostic C9orf72 hexanucleotide repeat expansions(C9-HRE)is essential for the early and accurate di-agnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis(ALS)and will provide support for the prognosis and gene therapy of ALS.In the present study,by combining catalytic hairpin assembly(CHA)with Mycobacterium smegma-tis porin A(MspA)nanopore,a new nanopore-based strategy for the detection of C9-HRE was reported.Less than 30 repeats of C9-HRE could be detected via this method,and the results have the potential to help distinguish between patients and healthy individuals.Moreover,the method demonstrated its great specificity for C9-HRE by identifying other repeat expansions.Given the high selectivity,this approach had been successfully used to detect C9-HRE in cell and blood samples with high accuracy.This detec-tion strategy is user-friendly and has a strong anti-interference ability,thus providing a powerful tool for clinical diagnosis.

    NOx reduction against alkali poisoning over Ce(SO4)2-V2O5/TiO2 catalysts by constructing the Ce4+-SO42-pair sites

    查看更多>>摘要:Commercial V2O5-based catalysts have been successfully applied in NH3 selective catalytic reduction(NH3-SCR)of NOx from power stations,but their poor alkali-resistance restrains the wider application in nonelectrical industries.In this study,NOx reduction against alkali poisoning over V2O5/TiO2 is greatly improved via Ce(SO4)2 modification.It has been originally demonstrated that Ce4+-SO42-pair sites play crucial roles in improving NOx reduction against alkali poisoning over V2O5/TiO2 catalysts.The strong in-teraction between V species and Ce sites of Ce4+-SO42-pairs triggers the reaction between NH4+species and gaseous NO via Eley-Rideal(E-R)reaction pathway.After K-poisoning,the SO42-sites of Ce4+-SO42-pairs as protective sites strongly bond with K and thus maintain the high reaction efficiency via the E-R reaction pathway.This work demonstrates an effective strategy to enhance NOx reduction against alkali poisoning over catalysts via constructing Ce4+-SO42-pair sites,contributing to developing alkali-resistant SCR catalysts for practical application in nonelectrical industries.

    Highly efficient capture of thorium ion by citric acid-modified chitosan gels from aqueous solution

    查看更多>>摘要:A novel citric acid-modified chitosan gel(CSCA)was synthesized through a simple one-step process and was used to extract thorium ions from wastewater.The CSCA samples with varying chemical composi-tions were analyzed using SEM with mapping EDS,FT-IR,and static water contact angle measurements,and their adsorption behaviors were studied in detail.The results showed that the adsorption perfor-mance of CSCA improves with the increase of CA content in the sample.CSCA possesses an impressive capacity for thorium adsorption of 279.8 mg/g.Furthermore,it showed an ultra-fast adsorption rate and reached equilibrium within 30 min.In terms of recyclability,the CSCA still retained more than 86%of its initial adsorption capacity after 6 cycles of reuse.Density functional theory(DFT)analysis reveals that the good selectivity of this material towards thorium ions should be attributed to the high density of adsorption sites and strong interaction between carboxyl groups and thorium ions.This work could be beneficial in the design and synthesis of new polymer materials for extracting thorium.

    查看更多>>摘要:Nonradical oxidation has received wide attention in advanced oxidation processes for environmental re-mediation.Understanding the relationship between material characteristics and their ability to initiate nonradical oxidation processes is the key to better material design and performance.Herein,a novel titanium-based metal-organic framework MIL-125-Ti/H2O2 system was established to show a highly selec-tive degradation efficacy toward tetracycline antibiotics.MIL-125-Ti with the abundance of TiO6 octahedra units was found to effectively activate H2O2 under dark conditions by forming an oxidative Ti-peroxo complex.The presence of the Ti-peroxo complex,confirmed by UV-visible spectrophotometer,fourier transform infrared spectroscopy,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy characterizations,showed supe-rior degradation(>95%removal rate)of oxytetracycline hydrochloride(OTC),doxycycline hydrochloride,chlortetracycline hydrochloride,and tetracycline.Density functional theory calculations were performed to assist the elucidation on the mechanism of H2O2 activation and antibiotics degradation.The MIL-125-Ti/H2O2 system was highly resistant to halogens and background organics,and could well maintain its original catalytic activity in actual water matrices.It retained the ability to degrade 75%of OTC within ten test cycles.This study provides new insight into the nonradical oxidation process initiated by the unique Ti-peroxo complex of Ti-based MOF.

    查看更多>>摘要:The present study reported fabrication of novel carbon quantum dots-MnFe2O4@ZIF-8(CQDs-MFO@ZIF-8)by using co-precipitation hydrothermal method for activation of peroxydisulfate(PDS)to degrade bisphenol A(BPA),one of important emerging organic pollutants in water environment.CQDs-MFO@ZIF-8 served as a highly efficient thermal activated PDS catalyst with high catalytic degradation efficiency,reusability and stability.The catalyst achieved almost completely removal of 20.0 mg/L BPA within 5.0 min,and the degradation efficiency remained higher than 83%after 5 consecutive cycles.Free radicals(·OH,SO4·-and·O2-)and non-free radicals(1O2)were generated in the thermal PDS-activation system,in which singlet oxygen(1O2)played a dominant role in the degradation of BPA.The potential toxicity of BPA degradation intermediates was analyzed upon the culture of E.coli and Chlorella sorokiniana by using Ecological Structure-Activity Relationship Model(ECOSAR)program.The catalytic performances of BPA degradation by CQDs-MFO@ZIF-8 were evaluated for treatment of different practical water samples to further verify the feasibility of practical applications.This study provides proof-in-concept demonstration of new nanomaterials for enhanced catalytic water decontamination.
