The work affective well-being under the impact of AI.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology is expected to help enterprises reduce costs and improve efficiency, but it may also threaten the employment of employees. It may form a substitution effect on employees' jobs and might make them experience negative work emotions. Employees' work emotions could then affect their innovative abilities, which in turn impacts the innovation ability and competitiveness of enterprises.

CO-driven electron and carbon flux fuels synergistic microbial reductive dechlorination.

Background: Carbon monoxide (CO), hypothetically linked to prebiotic biosynthesis and possibly the origin of the life, emerges as a substantive growth substrate for numerous microorganisms. In anoxic environments, the coupling of CO oxidation with hydrogen (H) production is an essential source of electrons, which can subsequently be utilized by hydrogenotrophic bacteria (e.g.

Ganoderma Microsporum Immunomodulatory Protein Alleviates Inflammaging and Oxidative Stress in Diabetes-Associated Periodontitis via Nrf2 Signaling Activation: An In Vitro Study.

Periodontitis, characterized by inflammation and loss of periodontal tissue, is a significant health complication for individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM). Buildup of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) in DM poses an increased risk of periodontitis via inflammaging. Ganoderma immunomodulatory protein (GMI) shows promise in suppressing inflammaging by mitigating oxidative stress and inflammation via Nrf2 modulation.

Carbonated Beverage Chemistry for High-Voltage Battery Cathodes.

Advanced lithium-ion batteries utilize high upper cut-off voltages up to 4.8 V versus lithium metal to reach extraordinary energy densities. Such a harsh environment challenges the cathode stability and requires the construction of robust cathode electrolyte interphases at their electrochemical interface.

Resveratrol inhibits arecoline-induced fibrotic properties of buccal mucosal fibroblasts via miR-200a activation.

Background/purpose: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a precancerous lesion in the oral cavity, commonly results from the Areca nut chewing habit. Arecoline, the main component of Areca nut, is known to stimulate the activation of myofibroblasts, which can lead to abnormal collagen I deposition. Meanwhile, Resveratrol is a non-flavonoid phenolic substance that can be naturally obtained from various berries and foods.

Tandem Electrochemical Oxidation of Polycyclic Aromatic Amines Towards Carbazoles and Phenazine-based Aza-helicenes.

Experimental and theoretical study of the regioselectivity and mechanism of polycyclic aromatic amine (PAA) electrochemical oxidation is important for designing nitrogen doped large π-conjugated functional molecules. Herein, we used binary-, ternary-, and quaternary-fused PAAs as electro-oxidative reaction substrates to investigate the yield changes of carbazole and phenazine based aza-helicene other than oligomers, which were obtained through pyrrole and pyrazine annulation pathways. Combined with the restrained electrostatic potential (RESP) and steric hindrance factor analysis of the substrate, the electron spin density distribution of free radical resonance hybrid and the spin population analysis of the atoms in the structure of each free radical tautomer indicate that the degree of delocalized dispersion of N free radical and the resulting change in the spin density distribution of C free radical tautomers determine the reaction regioselectivity.

Targeting histone deacetylase 9 represses fibrogenic phenotypes in buccal mucosal fibroblasts with arecoline stimulation.

Background/purpose: Oral submucosal fibrosis (OSF) is a premalignant disorder positively associated with betel nut chewing. Recent studies supported the promising benefits of histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors for fibrosis treatment. Here we aim to clarify the pro-fibrogenic role of HDAC9 in regulating OSF.

Downregulation of histone deacetylase 8 (HDAC8) alleviated the progression of oral submucous fibrosis.

Background/purpose: Oral submucous fibrosis (OSF) is a premalignant disorder that is associated with betel nut chewing. The purpose of the study was to establish the role of histone deacetylase (HDAC) 8, one of histone deacetylases, in the regulation of fibrotic conditions to provide a therapeutic potential for OSF.

Materials And Methods: First, we examined the expression of HDAC8 in fibrotic buccal mucosal fibroblasts (fBMFs) and OSF tissues.

Status and prospects of the application of root exudates in the restoration of polluted or desertated soil.

Ecological and environmental problems including heavy metal pollution have received increasing concerns. Given the shortage of physical and chemical remediation methods in high cost and secondary pollution, using plants and microorganisms for joint remediation of environment has become one of the most important strategies. Root exudates are an important medium for information and nutrient exchange between plants and soil.
