In-situ synthesis FeC@C/rGO as matrix for high performance lithium-sulfur batteries at room and low temperatures.

People have been focusing on how to improve the specific capacity and cycling stability of lithium-sulfur batteries at room temperature, however, on some special occasions such as cold cities and aerospace fields, the operating temperature is low, which dramatically hinders the performance of batteries. Here, we report an iron carbide (FeC)/rGO composite as electrode host, the FeC nanoparticles in the composite have strong adsorption and high catalytic ability for polysulfide. The rGO makes the distribution of FeC nanoparticles more disperse, and this specific structure makes the deposition of LiS more uniform.

Rosmarinic acid in combination with ginsenoside Rg1 suppresses colon cancer metastasis via co-inhition of COX-2 and PD1/PD-L1 signaling axis.

Metastasis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of mortality among CRC patients. Elevated COX-2 and PD-L1 expression in colon cancer tissue has been linked to distant metastasis of tumor cells. Although COX-2 inhibitors and immune checkpoint inhibitors demonstrate improved anti-tumor efficacy, their toxicity and variable therapeutic effects in individual patients raise concerns.
