This research delves into the role of metal ions in enhancing the electronic properties of 5,5'-bis(mercaptomethyl)-2,2'-bipyridine (BPD) self-assembled monolayers (SAMs). It combines experimental techniques and numerical simulations to understand the impact of these ions on the structural, electronic, and transport properties of BPD SAMs. Key findings include the varied bonding preferences of metal ions and their significant role in modifying the electronic structure of BPD molecules, leading to enhanced electron delocalization and migration.

Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic autoimmune disease with chronic inflammation. Its pathogenesis involves immunological, genetic, and environmental factors. We investigate the association between Tumor Necrosis Factor α Protein 3 (TNFAIP3), Interleukin 10 (IL10), Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNF α), and Interleukin 17 F (IL17F) polymorphisms with susceptibility to RA.

Background: Previous neuroimaging findings have demonstrated the association between anhedonia and the hippocampus. However, few studies have focused on the structural changes in the hippocampus in major depressive disorder (MDD) patients with anhedonia. Meanwhile, considering that multiple and functionally specialized subfields of the hippocampus have their own signatures, the present study aimed to investigate the volumetric alterations of the hippocampus as well as its subfields in MDD patients with and without anhedonia.
