Decreased expression of the clock gene Bmal1 is involved in the pathogenesis of temporal lobe epilepsy.

Clock genes not only regulate the circadian rhythm of physiological activities but also participate in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Previous studies have documented the abnormal expression of clock genes in epilepsy. However, the molecular mechanism of brain and muscle Arnt-like protein 1 (Bmal1), one of the core clock genes, in the epileptogenesis and seizures of temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE) remain unclear.

Construction of MoO nanopaticles /g-CN nanosheets 0D/2D heterojuntion photocatalysts for enhanced photocatalytic degradation of antibiotic pollutant.

A new type of 0D-2D Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst (MoO/g-CN) was successfully prepared via simple hydrothermal calcination method. The catalytic activities of MoO/g-CN was evaluated by the degradation effect of tetracycline. The results indicated that the 0D-2D MoO/g-CN Z-scheme heterojunction was significantly better than that of original g-CN.

Fabrication of self-assembled 0D-2D BiMoO-g-CN photocatalytic composite membrane based on PDA intermediate coating with visible light self-cleaning performance.

A Self-cleaning surface can efficaciously solve the problem of irreversible contamination buildup on filtration membranes. Photocatalytic membranes were fabricated via vacuum assisted layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly of 0D-2D BiMoO-g-CN on a PDA coated thin-film composite PVDF substrate by Schiff base reaction. The rejection rate of the simulated polysaccharide was more than 90%, and that of the simulated protein was more than 80%.
