Effects of polysaccharide fractions isolated from the pulp of rose laevigata Michx fruit on the foaming and polarization of RAW264.7 macrophage cells.

The foaming and polarization of macrophages are pivotal in the formation and development of atherosclerosis. This study delved into the structure and membrane pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) of the neutral polysaccharide fraction (PPRLMF-1), investigating effects of PPRLMF-1 and acid polysaccharide fraction (PPRLMF-2) on the foaming and polarization of RAW264.7 macrophage cells, and exploring their underlying mechanisms.

Facile preparation of fatigue-resistant Mxene-reinforced chitosan cryogel for accelerated hemostasis and wound healing.

The development of highly effective chitosan-based hemostatic materials that can be utilized for deep wound hemostasis remains a considerable challenge. In this study, a hemostatic antibacterial chitosan/N-hydroxyethyl acrylamide (NHEMAA)/TiCT (CSNT) composite cryogel was facilely prepared through the physical interactions between the three components and the spontaneous condensation of NHEMAA. Because of the formation of strong crosslinked network, the CSNT cryogel showed a developed pore structure (~ 99.

Nacre-inspired biodegradable nanocellulose/MXene/AgNPs films with high strength and superior gas barrier properties.

Super strength and high barrier properties are the bottleneck of the application of cellulose film materials. Herein, it is reported a flexible gas barrier film with nacre-like layered structure, in which 1D TEMPO-oxidized nanocellulose (TNF) and 2D MXene self-assembled to form an interwoven stack structure with 0D AgNPs filling the void space. The strong interaction and dense structure endowed TNF/MX/AgNPs film with mechanical properties far superior to PE films and acid-base stability.

Recent Progress in TiCT MXene-Based Flexible Pressure Sensors.

The rapid development of consumer electronics, artificial intelligence, and clinical medicine generates an increasing demand for flexible pressure sensors, whose performance depends significantly on sensitive materials with high flexibility and proper conductivity. MXene, a type of 2D nanomaterial, has attracted extensive attention due to its good electrical conductivity, hydrophilicity, and flexibility. The synthesis methods for MXenes make it relatively easy to control their microstructure and surface termination groups.
