Preparation of recyclable magnetic palladium nanocatalysts by dispersion strategy based on sodium alginate for reduction of p-nitrophenol and Suzuki-Miyaura coupling.

Palladium (Pd) has excellent catalytic performance, its application is seriously limited by low atomic utilization and weak recovery capacity. To solve these problems, we report a universal palladium nanocatalysts preparation strategy by taking advantage of the rich chemistry of sodium alginate (SA). SA units not only self-assemble into a cross-linked porous carboxyl and hydroxyl framework but also can coat different substrates.

Chitosan Hydrogel Enhances the Therapeutic Efficacy of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Myocardial Infarction by Alleviating Vascular Endothelial Cell Pyroptosis.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the higher mortality rates, and current treatment can only delay the progression of the disease. Experiments have shown that cell therapy could improve cardiac function and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-based therapies provide a great promising approach in the treatment of MI. However, low cell survival and engraftment restricts the successful application of MSCs for treating MI.
