Microporous carbon derived from waste plastics for efficient adsorption of tetracycline: Adsorption mechanism and application potentials.

In recent years, the accumulation of waste plastics and emergence plastic-derived pollutants such as microplastics have driven significantly the development and updating of waste plastic utilization technology. This study prepared the porous carbon (PC-1-KOH) material directly from polyethylene terephthalate (PET) in waste plastic bottles using KOH activation and molten salt strategy for efficient removal of antibiotic tetracycline (TC). The maximum removal efficiency of TC was 100.

Integrative analysis of somatic mutations and differential expression profiles in glioblastoma based on aging acceleration.

Background: Glioblastoma (GBM) is an aggressive brain tumor and the mechanisms of progression are very complex. Accelerated aging is a driving factor of GBM. However, there has not been thorough research about the mechanisms of GBM progression based on aging acceleration.

The accelerated aging model reveals critical mechanisms of late-onset Parkinson's disease.

Background: Late-onset Parkinson's disease (LOPD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder and lacks disease-modifying treatments, attracting major attentions as the aggravating trend of aging population. There were numerous evidences supported that accelerated aging was the primary risk factor for LOPD, thus pointed out that the mechanisms of PD should be revealed thoroughly based on aging acceleration. However, how PD was triggered by accelerated aging remained unclear and the systematic prediction model was needed to study the mechanisms of PD.

The Model of Aging Acceleration Network Reveals the Correlation of Alzheimer's Disease and Aging at System Level.

As the incidence of senile dementia continues to increase, researches on Alzheimer's disease (AD) have become more and more important. Several studies have reported that there is a close relationship between AD and aging. Some researchers even pointed out that if we wanted to understand AD in depth, mechanisms of AD based on accelerated aging must be studied.
