Spider Silk-Inspired Hyaluronic Acid-Based Hydrogels with Superior Self-Healing Capability and Enhanced Strength.

Hyaluronic acid hydrogels are promising materials for diverse applications, yet their potential is hampered by limitations such as low self-healing efficiency and insufficient mechanical strength. Inspired by the heterogeneous structures of spider silk, we introduce a novel dual dynamically crosslinked network hydrogel. This hydrogel comprises an acylhydrazone-crosslinked network, utilizing aldehyde hyaluronic acid (AHA) and 3,3'-dithiobis (propionohydrazide) (DTP) as a first network, and a secondary network formed by hydrogen bonds-crosslinked network between tannic acid (TA) and silk fibroin (SF) with β-sheet formation.

The hydrogels demonstrate the fast gelation process (< 1 min), the controlled swelling behaviors, and the good biocompatibility.

Ultrafast Sunlight-Induced Polymerization: Unveiling 2-Phenylnaphtho[2,3-d]Thiazole-4,9-dione as a Unique Scaffold for High-Speed and Precision 3D Printing.

A series of 15 dyes based on the 2-phenylnaphtho[2,3-d]thiazole-4,9-dione scaffold and 1 compound based on the 2,3-diphenyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[g]quinoxaline-5,10-dione scaffold are studied as photoinitiators. These compounds are used in two- and three-component high-performance photoinitiating systems for the free radical polymerization of trimethylolpropane triacrylate (TMPTA) and polyethylene glycol diacrylate (PEGDA) under sunlight. Remarkably, the conversion of TMPTA can reach ≈60% within 20 s, while PEGDA attains a 96% conversion within 90 s.

Plasma MCP-1 and TGF-β1 Levels are Associated with Kidney Injury in Children with Congenital Anomalies of the Kidney and Urinary Tract.

Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT) are primarily causal for end-stage renal disease and have significant implications for long-term survival. A total of 39 healthy controls and 94 children with chronic kidney disease (CKD) were enrolled (3-12 years old as children, 13-18 years old as adolescents), who were divided into CAKUT and Non-CAKUT according to the etiology of CKD. CKD group was further classified according to estimating glomerular filtration rate (eGFR).

Contextual Learning in Fourier Complex Field for VHR Remote Sensing Images.

Very high-resolution (VHR) remote sensing (RS) image classification is the fundamental task for RS image analysis and understanding. Recently, Transformer-based models demonstrated outstanding potential for learning high-order contextual relationships from natural images with general resolution ( ≈ 224 × 224 pixels) and achieved remarkable results on general image classification tasks. However, the complexity of the naive Transformer grows quadratically with the increase in image size, which prevents Transformer-based models from VHR RS image ( ≥ 500 × 500 pixels) classification and other computationally expensive downstream tasks.

[Abundance and Fluorescent Components of Dissolved Organic Matter Affected by Land Use in a Drinking Water Source].

Regional concentrations, fluorescent components, and sources of dissolved organic matter (DOM) in a drinking water source in Chaobai River across seasons were investigated here using fluorescence excitation-emission matrices, parallel factor analysis, and fluorescence indexes. Five fluorescent-DOM components were identified, including two microbial humic-like components and one autochthonous tyrosine-like, one reduced quinone-like, and one terrestrial humic-like component. DOM was mainly derived from microorganisms.

Characteristics of a novel photoinitiator aceanthrenequinone-initiated polymerization and cytocompatibility of its triggered polymer.

A number of photoinitiators are available in chemical industry, but less of them in biomedicine or clinical therapy due to the limitation of their cytotoxicity and biocompatibility. Thus, it is urgently necessary to find non-toxic or low-toxic photoinitiators to meet clinical demands. Aceanthrenequinone (AATQ) is a novel photosensitizer with high-photoinitiating ability, but no reports contribute, to date, to its cytotoxicity and biocompatibility.
