Background: Lung cancer is the leading prevalent form of human cancer and has the highest mortality rate among all cancer types. The role and potential mechanism of the lung microbiome in lung cancer is still unknown. This study aims to investigate the microbiomes of lung cancer patients possessing different levels of infiltrated CD8 T cells and programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) receptors, and further assess the correlation between specific microbes and the immune environment of lung tumor.

However, wound dressings used to promote wound healing, are not well suited to meet the clinical needs. Hyaluronic acid (HA) not only has excellent water absorption and good biocompatibility but facilitates cell function and tissue regeneration.

Inflammation and oxidative stress play an extremely important role in the development of AP disease. Polyvinylpyrrolidone-modified iridium nanoparticles (IrNP-PVP) have multienzyme mimetic activity, and the aim of this article is to discuss the therapeutic alleviative effects of the ultrasmall nanozymes IrNP-PVP on AP through their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

The FeSiCr soft magnetic alloy is one of the more widely used and well-received iron-based soft magnetic alloy materials with high permeability; however, the development of high-performance FeSiCr alloy wave-absorbing materials is still a major challenge. In this study, double core-shell-structured composites of MIL-88(Fe)@FeO@FeSiCr were successfully prepared by the oxidative heat treatment of the flaky FeSiCr obtained after ball milling and then composited with MIL-88(Fe).

To satisfy solution-processability, multiple energy levels, and suitable morphology, these three acceptors were comparatively studied through alkyl chain (hexyl/decyl) and branched-arm engineering (three/six branched arms). The six-bladed propeller acceptor of Tr(Hex)-6RD recorded the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 1.
