Numerous reports have indicated that the type 3 resistant starch (RS3) derived from can regulate lipid metabolism. However, it remains unclear whether the type 5 resistant starch (RS5) exhibits similar effects. In this study, RS5 was prepared from native starch and lauric acid through a hydrothermal method for the first time, and its nutritional intervention effects on hyperlipidemia in mice were investigated.

However, how to efficiently synthesize 1D hierarchical BiOBr is still a huge challenge. Herein, 1D rod-like BiO(OH)(NO)·3HO, the hydrolysis product of Bi(NO)·5HO, was acted as both the template and Bi source to synthesize 1D hierarchical hollow BiOBr (1DHHBr) through a facile solution stirring method at room temperature, using KBr as Br source.

LHPP, known for its tumor-suppressive effects, has an undefined role in BRCA. We found reduced LHPP protein in BRCA tissues, with lower levels correlating with poor patient outcomes.

Objective: A number of empirical studies have shown that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may be used to treat cognitive abnormalities in patients with AD.
Chalcogen-containing carbonyls, specifically thioxanthone (TX), hold great potential in organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). While the development of narrowband OLEDs with chalcogen-containing carbonyls remains challenging due to difficulties in achieving both high device efficiency and narrow emission spectra. Herein, via a strategic incorporation of the TX moiety, two orange-red narrowband emitters, 2TXBN and BNTXBN, are designed and synthesized for the first time.
