Light-Induced Chiral Iron Copper Selenide Nanoparticles Prevent β-Amyloidopathy In Vivo

The accumulation and deposition of β-amyloid (Aβ) plaques in the brain is considered a potential pathogenic mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD). Chiral l/d -Fe_xCu_ySe nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated that interfer with the self-assembly of Aβ42 monomers and trigger the Aβ42 fibrils in dense structures to become looser monomers under 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) illumination. d -Fe_xCu_ySe NPs have a much higher affinity for Aβ42 fibrils than l -Fe_xCu_ySe NPs and chiral Cu_2−xSe NPs. The chiral Fe_xCu_ySe NPs also generate more reactive oxygen species (ROS) than chiral Cu_2−xSe NPs under NIR-light irradiation. In living MN9D cells, d -NPs attenuate the adhesion of Aβ42 to membranes and neuron loss after NIR treatment within 10 min without the photothermal effect. In-vivo experiments showed that d -Fe_xCu_ySe NPs provide an efficient protection against neuronal damage induced by the deposition of Aβ42 and alleviate symptoms in a mouse model of AD, leading to the recovery of cognitive competence.     

Light‐Induced Chiral Iron Copper Selenide Nanoparticles Prevent β‐Amyloidopathy In Vivo

The accumulation and deposition of β‐amyloid (Aβ) plaques in the brain is considered a potential pathogenic mechanism underlying Alzheimer's disease (AD). Chiral l/d ‐Fe_xCu_ySe nanoparticles (NPs) were fabricated that interfer with the self‐assembly of Aβ42 monomers and trigger the Aβ42 fibrils in dense structures to become looser monomers under 808 nm near‐infrared (NIR) illumination. d ‐Fe_xCu_ySe NPs have a much higher affinity for Aβ42 fibrils than l ‐Fe_xCu_ySe NPs and chiral Cu_2?xSe NPs. The chiral Fe_xCu_ySe NPs also generate more reactive oxygen species (ROS) than chiral Cu_2?xSe NPs under NIR‐light irradiation. In living MN9D cells, d ‐NPs attenuate the adhesion of Aβ42 to membranes and neuron loss after NIR treatment within 10 min without the photothermal effect. In‐vivo experiments showed that d ‐Fe_xCu_ySe NPs provide an efficient protection against neuronal damage induced by the deposition of Aβ42 and alleviate symptoms in a mouse model of AD, leading to the recovery of cognitive competence.     

发射方向调制信号的多波束调制技术

为了使单天线接收机通过接收解调信号能实现通信和方向测量功能,提出了一种多波束调制的概念.它利用双波束或多波束的空间特性来实现数字调制和方向调制.设计了一个六元线天线发射阵列,将中间的四元天线两两成对激励,形成双波束,用双波束调制实现数字通信和方向粗测,然后对大间距的二元天线用不同的相差激励,形成有错位的多波束,用多波束调制实现数字通信和方向精测.仿真结果表明这种多波束调制实现了在调制信号设计层面上的数字通信与测向的深度综合.     

Fabrication and performance test of solid oxide fuel cells with screen-printed yttria-stabilized zirconia electrolyte membranes

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) membranes were deposited onto porous NiO–YSZ anode supports by screen printing. Combined with La_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃–YSZ composite cathode, the prepared anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) were electrochemically tested. A typical SOFC with a 30-μm-thick YSZ electrolyte membrane gave the maximum power densities (MPDs) of 0.26, 0.53, 0.78, and 1.03 W/cm² at 650, 700, 800, and 850 °C, respectively, using hydrogen as fuel and stationary air as oxidant. Replacement of stationary air with pure oxygen flow exerted a significant positive effect on the MPDs of the cell. Using 100- and 200-ml/min oxygen as oxidants, the MPDs of the cell were enhanced 35.3% and 68.6%, respectively. Polarization analysis indicated that, at the MPD points, the electrode polarization resistances accounted for 80% of the cell total resistances.

     

Substrate-controlled selective proximal and distal C-C bond cleavage via lewis acid mediated O-acylation of 2-(arylmethylene)cyclopropylaldehyde: a stereoselective synthesis of bifunctional methylenecyclobutanes and 1,3-conjugated dienes

ZnCl2-mediated reactions of (E)-2-(arylmethylene)cyclopropylaldehyde 1 with various acyl chlorides provide a novel method for stereoselective synthesis of bifunctional methlylenecyclobutanes via a proximal-bond cleavage process. Nevertheless, when (Z)-1 was employed, the reactions give 1,3-conjugated dienes through distal-bond cleavage.     

PdCl2-catalyzed oxidative cycloisomerization of 3-cyclopropylideneprop-2-en-1-ones

A novel PdCl(2)-catalyzed oxidative cycloisomerization of 3-cyclopropylideneprop-2-en-1-ones, providing a facile synthesis of highly strained functionalized 2-alkylidenecyclobutanones via furan-fused cyclobutene intermediates, is reported. An interesting route to 2(3H)-furanones with a spiro-cyclopropane unit from the obtained 2-alkylidenecyclobutanones via a ring-contraction rearrangement reaction is also realized.     

On the completion of a partial integral matrix to a unimodular matrix

We prove that if a partial integral matrix has a free diagonal then this matrix can be completed to a unimodular matrix. Such a condition is necessary in a general sense. Consequently if an n × n (n ? 2) partial integral matrix has 2n − 3 prescribed entries and any n entries of these do not constitute a row or a column then it can be completed to a unimodular matrix. This improves a recent result of Zhan.     

Engineering of chiral nanomaterials for biomimetic catalysis

Chiral nanomaterial-based biomimetic catalysts can trigger a similar biological effect to natural catalysts and exhibit high performance in biological applications. Especially, their active center similarity and substrate selectivity promoted their superior biocatalytic activity. Here, modification of critical elements, such as size, morphology, nanocrystal facets, chiral surface and active sites, for controlling the catalytic efficiency of individual chiral nanoparticles (NPs) and chiral nanoassemblies has been demonstrated, which had a synergistic effect on overcoming the defects of pre-existing nanocatalysts. Noticeably, application of external forces (light or magnetism) has resulted in obvious enhancement in biocatalytic efficiency. Chiral nanomaterials served as preferable biomimetic nanocatalysts due to their special structural configuration and chemical constitution advantages. Furthermore, the current challenges and future research directions of the preparation of high-performance bioinspired chiral nanomaterials for biological applications are discussed.
