Lignin and copper nanocomposite coating for antibacterial mask.

Lignin is a natural phenolic polymer characterized with renewable, sustainable and biocompatible, but yet remain underutilized. In the post-pandemic era, people are conventionally reusing mask but without any disinfections to prevent infection of virus in public places, which could lead to accumulation of bacteria and secondary infections. The development of antibacterial mask from lignin would simultaneously address the hygiene issues of used mask due to microbe accumulation and provide novel approach for lignin valorization.

A Pan-RAS Inhibitor with a Unique Mechanism of Action Blocks Tumor Growth and Induces Antitumor Immunity in Gastrointestinal Cancer.

RAS is a common driver of cancer that was considered undruggable for decades. Recent advances have enabled the development of RAS inhibitors, but the efficacy of these inhibitors remains limited by resistance. Here, we developed a pan-RAS inhibitor, ADT-007, that binds nucleotide-free RAS to block GTP activation of effector interactions and MAPK/AKT signaling, resulting in mitotic arrest and apoptosis.

Text-image semantic relevance identification for aspect-based multimodal sentiment analysis.

Aspect-based multimodal sentiment analysis (ABMSA) is an emerging task in the research of multimodal sentiment analysis, which aims to identify the sentiment of each aspect mentioned in multimodal sample. Although recent research on ABMSA has achieved some success, most existing models only adopt attention mechanism to interact aspect with text and image respectively and obtain sentiment output through multimodal concatenation, they often neglect to consider that some samples may not have semantic relevance between text and image. In this article, we propose a Text-Image Semantic Relevance Identification (TISRI) model for ABMSA to address the problem.

Calcium nanoparticles target and activate T cells to enhance anti-tumor function.

Calcium signaling plays a crucial role in the activation of T lymphocytes. However, modulating calcium levels to control T cell activation in vivo remains a challenge. In this study, we investigate T cell activation using 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-encapsulated CaCO nanoparticles.

Manipulating Intramolecular Charge Transfer in Terpyridine Derivatives Towards "Turn-On" Fluorescence Chemosensors for Zn.

A series of donor-acceptor (D-A) terpyridine derivatives with various intramolecular charge transfer interactions have been successfully synthesized bearing phenyl, methoxyphenyl, N-butyldiphenylamine (DPA), and triphenylamine (TPA) as electron-donors and terpyridine (TPY), 2,6-di(pyrazin-2-yl)pyridine (PYDPZ), and N,N-dimethylated PYDPZ (PYDPZ-2CH) as electron acceptors. Upon the introduction of pyrazine rings instead of pyridine ones and further selective N,N'-dimethylation, the intramolecular D-A interactions are significantly enhanced, resulting in the remarkable reduced intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) transitions and quenched PL emissions in CHCl solution. However, their ICT emissions are clearly recovered upon adding Zn.

Customized Preparation of Heat-Resistant Fully Flexible Sensors Based on Coaxial 3D Printing.

The conventional behavior recognition strategy for wearable sensors used in high-temperature environments typically requires an external power supply, and the manufacturing process is cumbersome. Herein, we present a rational design strategy based on fully flexible printable materials and a customized device-manufacturing process for skin-conformable triboelectric nanogenerator sensors. In detail, using high temperature-resistant ink and 3D printing technology to manufacture a coaxial triboelectric nanogenerator (C-TENG) sensor, the C-TENG exhibits high stretchability (>400%), a wide working range (>250 °C), and high output voltage (>100 V).

In situ atomic observations of aggregation growth and evolution of penta-twinned gold nanocrystals.

The twin boundaries and inherent lattice strain of five-fold twin (5-FT) structures offer a promising and innovative approach to tune nanocrystal configurations and properties, enriching nanomaterial performance. However, a comprehensive understanding of the nonclassical growth models governing 5-FT nanocrystals remains elusive, largely due to the constraints of their small thermodynamically stable size and complex twin configurations. Here, we conducted in situ investigations to elucidate the atomic-scale mechanisms driving size-dependent and twin configuration-related aggregation phenomena between 5-FT and other nanoparticles at the atomic scale.
