Open-set deep learning-enabled single-cell Raman spectroscopy for rapid identification of airborne pathogens in real-world environments.

Pathogenic bioaerosols are critical for outbreaks of airborne disease; however, rapidly and accurately identifying pathogens directly from complex air environments remains highly challenging. We present an advanced method that combines open-set deep learning (OSDL) with single-cell Raman spectroscopy to identify pathogens in real-world air containing diverse unknown indigenous bacteria that cannot be fully included in training sets. To test and further enhance identification, we constructed the Raman datasets of aerosolized bacteria.

Central role of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α in metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells: A review.

Metabolic reprogramming is one of the characteristics of tumor cell metabolism. In tumor cells, there are multiple metabolic enzymes and membrane proteins to regulate metabolic reprogramming, and hypoxia inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) can be regulated in transcription, translation, posttranslational modification and other aspects through multiple pathways, and HIF-1α affects multiple metabolic enzymes and membrane proteins during metabolic reprogramming, thus playing a central role in the metabolic reprogramming process, and thus has some implications for tumor therapy and understanding chemotherapy drug resistance. HIF-1α affects a number of metabolic enzymes and membrane proteins in the metabolic reprogramming process, thus playing a central role in the metabolic reprogramming process, which has certain significance for the treatment of tumors and the understanding of chemotherapeutic drug resistance.

A Turbo-Charging System-Like Contrast Agent for MRI-Guided STING Pathway-Activated Cancer Immunotherapy.

To overcome the problems of Gd-based contrast agents (GBCAs) (nephrotoxicity and brain deposition) and stimulator of interferon genes (STING) agonists (poor stability, low delivery efficiency, and potential toxicity), in this study, a Turbo-charging system-like GBCA is designed and constructed for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided STING pathway-activated cancer immunotherapy. Poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) is used to coordinate with Gd, forming a Gd/PAA macrochelate. Both Gd/PAA macrochelate and SR717 are conjugated to cystamine (CA) to obtain SR717-CA@Gd/PAA self-assembled nanoparticles (SAN), which are termed as Turbo S because of its similarity with the Turbo-charging system of cars.

SERS Performance Factor: A Convenient Parameter for the Enhancement Evaluation of SERS Substrates.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), with molecular fingerprint information and single-molecule sensitivity, has been widely used for qualitative and quantitative analysis in various fields. Plenty of nanostructured plasmonic materials have been fabricated to achieve high SERS activity. Currently, great difficulty lies in evaluating the SERS performance among substrates, making it difficult to standardize.

Micro Reference Electrode with an Ultrathin Ionic Path.

Reference electrode (RE) plays the core role in accurate potential control in electrochemistry. However, nanoresolved electrochemical characterization techniques still suffer from unstable potential control of pseudo-REs, because the commercial RE is too large to be used in the tiny electrochemical cell, and thus only pseudo-RE can be used. Therefore, microsized RE with a stable potential is urgently required to push the nanoresolved electrochemical measurements to a new level of accuracy and precision, but it is quite challenging to reproducibly fabricate such a micro RE until now.

Nanoscale chemical characterization of materials and interfaces by tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy.

Materials and their interfaces are the core for the development of a large variety of fields, including catalysis, energy storage and conversion. In this case, tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), which combines scanning probe microscopy with plasmon-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, is a powerful technique that can simultaneously obtain the morphological information and chemical fingerprint of target samples at nanometer spatial resolution. It is an ideal tool for the nanoscale chemical characterization of materials and interfaces, correlating their structures with chemical performances.

Cyclic catalysis of intratumor Fe initiated by a hollow mesoporous iron sesquioxide nanoparticle for ferroptosis therapy of large tumors.

Numerous nanoparticles have been utilized to deliver Fe for tumor ferroptosis therapy, which can be readily converted to Fevia Fenton reactions to generate hydroxyl radical (•OH). However, the ferroptosis therapeutic efficacy of large tumors is limited due to the slow conversion of Fe to Fevia Fenton reactions. Herein, a strategy of intratumor Fe cyclic catalysis is proposed for ferroptosis therapy of large tumors, which was realized based on our newly developed hollow mesoporous iron sesquioxide nanoparticle (HMISN).

Label-Free Detection of DNA Base Mutation and Hybridized DNA by an Electrostatically Modified 3D Plasmonic Array.

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) represents a promising avenue for DNA detection as it offers intrinsic chemical insights with high sensitivity compared to conventional methods. However, label-free and quantitative detection of unmodified DNA by SERS remains a major challenge in DNA analysis. To overcome this challenge, we propose a positively charged plasmonic nanosurface for DNA capture and quantitative analysis.

Ultralow-Frequency Tip-Enhanced Raman Scattering Discovers Nanoscale Radial Breathing Mode on Strained 2D Semiconductors.

Collective excitations including plasmons, magnons, and layer-breathing vibration modes emerge at an ultralow frequency (<1 THz) and are crucial for understanding van der Waals materials. Strain at the nanoscale can drastically change the property of van der Waals materials and create localized states like quantum emitters. However, it remains unclear how nanoscale strain changes collective excitations.

A strategy of "adding fuel to the flames" enables a self-accelerating cycle of ferroptosis-cuproptosis for potent antitumor therapy.

Cuproptosis in antitumor therapy faces challenges from copper homeostasis efflux mechanisms and high glutathione (GSH) levels in tumor cells, hindering copper accumulation and treatment efficacy. Herein, we propose a strategy of "adding fuel to the flames" for potent antitumor therapy through a self-accelerating cycle of ferroptosis-cuproptosis.

Radially distributed charging time constants at an electrode-solution interface.

An electrochemically homogeneous electrode-solution interface should be understood as spatially invariant in both terms of intrinsic reactivity for the electrode side and electrical resistance mainly for the solution side. The latter remains presumably assumed in almost all cases. However, by using optical microscopy to spatially resolve the classic redox electrochemistry occurring at the whole surface of a gold macroelectrode, we discover that the electron transfer occurs always significantly sooner (by milliseconds), rather than faster in essence, at the radial coordinates closer to the electrode periphery than the very center.

Rapid Sample Pretreatment Facilitating SERS Detection of Trace Weak Organic Acids/Bases in Complex Matrices.

Fast and efficient sample pretreatment is the prerequisite for realizing surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) detection of trace targets in complex matrices, which is still a big issue for the practical application of SERS. Recently, we have proposed a highly performed liquid-liquid extraction (LLE)-back extraction (BE) for weak acids/bases extraction in drinking water and beverage samples. However, the performance efficiency decreased drastically on facing matrices like food and biological blood.

Pyruvate kinase M2 sustains cardiac mitochondrial integrity in septic cardiomyopathy by regulating PHB2-dependent mitochondrial biogenesis.

Previous studies have highlighted the protective effects of pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) overexpression in septic cardiomyopathy. In our study, we utilized cardiomyocyte-specific knockout mice to further investigate the role of PKM2 in attenuating LPS-induced myocardial dysfunction, focusing on mitochondrial biogenesis and prohibitin 2 (PHB2). Our findings confirmed that the deletion of in cardiomyocytes significantly exacerbated LPS-induced myocardial dysfunction, as evidenced by impaired contractile function and relaxation.
