Comprehensive landscape of the IPAF inflammasomes in pan-cancer: A bulk omics research and single-cell sequencing validation.

Background: IPAF (ICE-protease Activating Factor) is a nucleotide-binding/leucine-rich repeat (NLR) protein known as the cysteine-associated recruitment domain 12 (CARD12). Previous studies only discuss the role of IPAF inflammasomes in specific tumors. The role of IPAF inflammasomes in pan-cancer is still unclear.

A comprehensive review on reactive oxygen species (ROS) in advanced oxidation processes (AOPs).

In this account, the reactive oxygen species (ROS) were comprehensively reviewed, which were based on electro-Fenton and photo-Fenton processes and correlative membrane filtration technology. Specifically, this review focuses on the fundamental principles and applications of advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on a series of nanomaterials, and we compare the pros and cons of each method and point out the perspective. Further, the emerging reviews regarding AOPs rarely emphasize the involved ROS and consider the convenience of radical classification and transformation mechanism, such a review is of paramount importance to be needed.

Hollow FeO/carbon with surface mesopores derived from MOFs for enhanced lithium storage performance.

Hollow metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and their derivatives have attracted more and more attention due to their high specific surface area and perfect morphological structure, which determine their large potential application in energy storage and catalysis fields. However, few researchers have carried out further modification on the outer shell of hollow MOFs, such as the perforation modification, which will endow hollow nanomaterials derived from MOFs with multifunctionality. In this paper, hollow MOFs of MIL-53(Fe) with perforated outer surface are successfully synthesized by using SiO nanospheres as the template via a self-assembly process induced by the coordination polymerization.

Enhancement of HO Decomposition by the Co-catalytic Effect of WS on the Fenton Reaction for the Synchronous Reduction of Cr(VI) and Remediation of Phenol.

The greatest problem in the Fe(II)/HO Fenton reaction is the low production of ·OH owing to the inefficient Fe(III)/Fe(II) cycle and the low decomposition efficiency of HO (<30%). Herein, we report a new discovery regarding the significant co-catalytic effect of WS on the decomposition of HO in a photoassisted Fe(II)/HO Fenton system. With the help of WS co-catalytic effect, the HO decomposition efficiency can be increased from 22.

Here, we report an effective strategy to enhance the reduction potential of photoexcited electrons by fluorination of mesoporous single crystals of reduced TiO.

Protection of rat intestinal epithelial cells from ischemia/reperfusion injury by (D-Ala2, D-Leu5)-enkephalin through inhibition of the MKK7-JNK signaling pathway.

Previous studies have demonstrated that (D‑Ala2, D‑Leu5)‑enkephalin (DADLE) protects rats from hepatic ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. In the present study, DADLE was also observed to alleviate IR‑induced intestinal epithelial cell injury in rats by inhibiting mitogen‑activated protein kinase kinase 7 (MKK7)‑c‑Jun N‑terminal kinase (JNK) pathway signaling. To investigate the protective effect of DADLE on hypoxia/reoxygenation injury in rat intestinal epithelial cells, rat intestinal epithelial cells were treated with different concentrations of DADLE, following which the cell survival rate was determined using a tetrazolium (MTT) colorimetric assay, and apoptosis was determined using flow cytometry.
