An unprecedented zeolite supramolecular framework featuring truncated cuboctahedral and truncated octahedral cavities was self-assembled from tetrahedral metal-organic cationic cages and tetrahedral anions. This crystalline porous material could trap iodine and organic dye molecules, and its solid state spin-crossover behavior was affected by guest encapsulation.

- Cytochrome P450 and UDP-glucosyltransferase (UGT) are crucial enzymes for metabolizing various substances, including insecticides in the pest Spodoptera exigua, although their exact detoxification mechanisms are not well understood.
- This study identified 68 P450 and 32 UGT genes, revealing expansions in certain gene families and showing that these genes exhibit specific expression patterns in different tissues.
- Insecticide exposure resulted in significant changes in gene expression, with most insecticides causing co-up-regulation of several P450 and UGT genes, while abamectin led to more down-regulation, indicating a distinct detoxification response for this compound.
