Recent advances in the development of colorimetric analysis and testing based on aggregation-induced nanozymes

Colorimetric sensing strategies as a powerful point-of-care testing(POCT) tool have attracted significant interest in various chem/biosensing applications.Taking the excellent bare-eye-detectable signaling feature,nanozymes-based colorimetric sensors enable more potential applications and have been a new forefront in the colorimetric POCT analysis toward different target analytes.However,the low catalytic activity of nanozymes in most cases limits their practical application.Recent efforts demonstrate that the aggregation-induced nanozymes provide a general means to modulate nanozymes activity and enhance colorimetric sensing performances of some nanozymes-based colorimetric sensors.But there are few reports are explored to discuss and review such aggregation-induced nanozymes and their colorimetric sensing applications.To highlight the advances and progress in aggregation-induced nanozymes based colorimetric assays,we herein summary the fundamentals,classify and applications of this newlydeveloping field,focusing on the aggregation-induced activity enhancement of nanozymes(AIAEnanozymes) with a significant "signal-on" feature and aggregation-induced activity inhibition of nanozymes(AIAI-nanozymes) with a dramatical "signal-of" characteristics.Finally,we also propose the current challenges and the future prospects on both AIAE-nanozymes and AIAI-nanozymes.     

Cytosolic escape of mitochondrial DNA triggers cGAS-STING-NLRP3 axis-dependent nucleus pulposus cell pyroptosis

Low back pain (LBP) is a major musculoskeletal disorder and the socioeconomic problem with a high prevalence that mainly involves intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration, characterized by progressive nucleus pulposus (NP) cell death and the development of an inflammatory microenvironment in NP tissue. Excessively accumulated cytosolic DNA acts as a damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) that is monitored by the cGAS-STING axis to trigger the immune response in many degenerative diseases. NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent pyroptosis is a type of inflammatory programmed death that promotes a chronic inflammatory response and tissue degeneration. However, the relationship between the cGAS-STING axis and NLRP3 inflammasome-induced pyroptosis in the pathogenesis of IVD degeneration remains unclear. Here, we used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and histopathology to demonstrate that cGAS, STING, and NLRP3 are associated with the degree of IVD degeneration. Oxidative stress induced cGAS-STING axis activation and NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptosis in a STING-dependent manner in human NP cells. Interestingly, the canonical morphological and functional characteristics of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) opening with the cytosolic escape of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) were observed in human NP cells under oxidative stress. Furthermore, the administration of a specific pharmacological inhibitor of mPTP and self-mtDNA cytosolic leakage effectively reduced NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated pyroptotic NP cell death and microenvironmental inflammation in vitro and degenerative progression in a rat disc needle puncture model. Collectively, these data highlight the critical roles of the cGAS-STING-NLRP3 axis and pyroptosis in the progression of IVD degeneration and provide promising therapeutic approaches for discogenic LBP.Subject terms: Cell death, Diseases

在5%Nb掺杂的SrTiO3衬底上用磁控溅射法外延生长了La1/aCa7/aMnO3薄膜形成异质结,该异质结有类似于传统P-n结的整流特性.磁场下扩散电压减小,当温度低于130 K以下,扩散电压的减小非常明显.这和在此温度以下,La1/8Ca7/aMnO3出现自旋倾斜态密切相关.我们计算出异质结的结电阻和磁致电阻(MR),在不同大小的正负偏压,不同磁场下,都得到负的MR值.我们给出界面附近的La1/8Ca7/8MnO3的能带结构并分析了外加磁场对洪德耦合,Jahn-Teller畸变等机制的作用,来解释该异质结的磁输运行为.结果有助于了解高Ca掺杂锰氧化物异质结的性质.

一维光子晶体缺陷模激光器的放大特性

光子晶体中引入缺陷后将形成缺陷模,这些缺陷模在增益介质中将被放大形成激光。基于麦克斯韦方程和速率方程相结合的模型,用时域有限差分法(FDTD)计算和分析了一维单缺陷光子晶体激光器中缺陷模的空间分布和频谱特性,以及这些缺陷模的放大特性,主要研究了缺陷层的厚度、晶体层数对缺陷模放大特性的影响。模拟结果显示,类似于传统激光腔的腔模,这些缺陷模能够被放大,形成激光。调整缺陷层的厚度、晶体层数等结构参量,将改变缺陷模的谐振,激射频率以及空间分布,这将直接影响激射阈值和饱和特性。增加晶体的层数,激光器的阈值将降低,饱和值将增加,但晶体层数增加到一定限度时,这种增减趋势变弱。模拟结果证明了有效层数的存在。

一种可能的简并谱NNS分布

To expose the statistical properties of the degenerated spectrum, with the aid of the random matrix theory,a possible form of the NNS distribution function of the degenerate spectrum was proposed by providing a solution in terms of the same-degeneracy case. The results indicate that the target spectrum is transformed into two sub-spectra: a random one and a regular one, and that the repulsion level of the regular spectrum is also decreased.
