Photodeposition of dual-cocatalysts Pt-Cr or Rh-Cr on the surface of ZnInS is used to achieve overall water splitting. Compared with the hybrid loading of the Pt element and Cr element, the formation of the Rh-S bond results in space separation of the Rh element and Cr element. The Rh-S bond and space separation of cocatalysts promote the transfer of bulk carriers to the surface and inhibit self-corrosion.

Metformin serves an important role in improving the functions of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). MicroRNAs (miRNAs), small non‑coding RNAs, have been investigated as significant regulators of EPC vascular functions. The present study investigated the molecular crosstalk between metformin and miRNA‑130a (miR‑130a) in the functions of EPCs exposed to palmitic acid (PA).
