Promoting favorable interfacial properties in lithium-based batteries using chlorine-rich sulfide inorganic solid-state electrolytes.

The use of inorganic solid-state electrolytes is considered a viable strategy for developing high-energy Li-based metal batteries. However, suppression of parasitic interfacial reactions and growth of unfavorable Li metal depositions upon cycling are challenging aspects and not yet fully addressed. Here, to better understand these phenomena, we investigate various sulfide inorganic solid electrolytes (SEs), i.

Sevoflurane-Induced miR-211-5p Promotes Neuronal Apoptosis by Inhibiting Efemp2.

Sevoflurane exposure can result in serious neurological side effects including neuronal apoptosis and cognitive impairment. Although the microRNA miR-211-5p is profoundly upregulated following sevoflurane exposure in neonatal rodent models, the impact of miR-211-5p on neuronal apoptosis and cognitive impairment postsevoflurane exposure has not yet been elucidated. Here, we found that sevoflurane upregulated miR-211-5p and downregulated EGF-Containing Fibulin Extracellular Matrix Protein 2 (Efemp2, Fibulin-4) levels in vitro and in vivo.
