Low-concentration ether electrolytes cannot efficiently achieve oxidation resistance and excellent interface behavior, resulting in severe electrolyte decomposition at a high voltage and ineffective electrode-electrolyte interphase. Herein, we utilize sandwich structure-like gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) to enhance the high voltage stability of potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). The GPE contact layer facilitates stable electrode-electrolyte interphase formation, and the GPE transport layer maintains good ionic transport, which enabled GPE to exhibit a wide electrochemical window and excellent electrochemical performance.

Introduction: Epstein-Barr virus-positive (EBV+) inflammatory follicular dendritic cell (FDC) sarcoma is a rare neoplasm characterized by spindle-shaped follicular dendritic cells, marked lymphoplasmacytic infiltration, and a consistent link to EBV. While it typically affects the liver and spleen, it is exceptionally rare in the digestive tract. We present a special case of EBV + inflammatory FDC sarcoma arising in the colon with clonal immunoglobulin (IG) gene rearrangement.

Ether-based electrolytes are among the most important electrolytes for potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) due to their low polarization voltage and notable compatibility with potassium metal. However, their development is hindered by the strong binding between K and ether solvents, leading to [K-solvent] cointercalation on graphite anodes. Herein, we propose a partially and weakly solvating electrolyte (PWSE) wherein the local solvation environment of the conventional 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME)-based electrolyte is efficiently reconfigured by a partially and weakly solvating diethoxy methane (DEM) cosolvent.

With the judicious selection of a designed polycarboxylate derived from L-phenylalanine, (S)-5-(((1-carboxy-2-phenylethyl)amino)methyl)isophthalic acid (HL), a novel homochiral metal-organic framework decorated with a free carboxyl, {[Cu(HL)(bipy)]∙2HO} (Cu-MOF), has been designed and synthesized in a solvothermal process. The result of single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis showed that Cu-MOF had the character of a three-dimensional structure with helical chirality. As we expected, in Cu-MOF, one accessible free carboxylic acid group on HL pointed toward the spiral channels, and the other two -COOH groups were utilized in bonding.

Human thymic epithelial tumors (TET) are common malignancies in the anterior mediastinum with limited biological understanding. Here we show, by single cell analysis of the immune landscape, that the developmental pattern of intra-tumoral T-cells identify three types within TETs. We characterize the developmental alterations and TCR repertoires of tumor-infiltrating T cells in the context of the distinguishing epithelial tumor cell types.

Conventional ether-based electrolytes exhibited a low polarization voltage in potassium-ion batteries, yet suffered from ion-solvent co-intercalation phenomena in a graphite anode, inferior potassium-metal performance, and limited oxidation stability. Here, we reveal that weakening the cation-solvent interactions could suppress the co-intercalation behaviour, enhance the potassium-metal performance, and improve the oxidation stability. Consequently, the graphite anode exhibits K intercalation behaviour (K||graphite cell operates 200 cycles with 86.

Tumor protein 53 () mutation predicts an unfavorable prognosis in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), but the molecular basis for this association remains unclear. In several malignancies, the cytidine deaminase apolipoprotein B mRNA editing enzyme catalytic subunit 3B (APOBEC3B) has been reported to be associated with the G/C-to-A/T mutation. Here, we show that the frequency of this mutation was significantly higher in relapsed/refractory (R/R) than in non-R/R DLBCL, which was positively associated with the expression level.

Sequestosome 1 (SQSTM1)/p62 is an adapter protein mainly involved in the transportation, degradation and destruction of various proteins that cooperates with components of autophagy and the ubiquitin‑proteasome degradation pathway. Numerous studies have shown that SQSTM1/p62 functions at multiple levels, including involvement in genetic stability or modification, post‑transcriptional regulation and protein function. As a result, SQSTM1/p62 is a versatile protein that is a critical core regulator of tumor cell genetic stability, autophagy, apoptosis and other forms of cell death, malignant growth, proliferation, migration, invasion, metastasis and chemoradiotherapeutic response, and an indicator of patient prognosis.
