Introduction: 5-HMF (5-hydroxymethylfurfural), an active constituent found in Radix Rehmanniae Preparata, a widely utilized traditional Chinese medicine for osteoarthritis (OA) treatment, exhibits notable therapeutic benefits in countering the catabolic and inflammatory responses of OA chondrocytes. Despite these promising effects, the underlying mechanisms of 5-HMF's action remain elusive, thereby impeding its broader clinical application and development.

Objective: To investigate the impact of 5-HMF on the progression of OA and elucidate its underlying mechanisms.

The thermal aging process of lithium-ion battery electrolyte was studied using Raman spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. The system studied is specifically a carbonate-based electrolyte containing lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF). Raman spectroscopy results show that LiPF will decompose and produce substances with significant fluorescence effects under the thermal aging.

We report a bioinspired synthesis of microstegiol and biosynthetically related skeleton-rearranged abietane diterpenoids from commercially available carnosic acid. The strategy features a Wagner-Meerwein type methyl migration followed by several cascade transformations, enabling the divergent synthesis of five abietane diterpenoids, including viridoquinone, prattinin A, saprorthoquinone, microstegiol, and 1-deoxyviroxocin.

Antibacterial hydrogels not only provide a better environment for skin wounds to avoid infection but also accelerate wound healing. Herein, chitosan modified by a quaternary ammonium salt (CQ), and hyaluronic acid grafted with methacrylate (HM) were designed and synthesized to prepare an injectable photo-crosslinking hydrogel for wound dressing with inherent antibacterial and photothermal properties. CQ and HM exhibited excellent biocompatibility, improved water retention, and antibacterial activity, illustrating vast potential as an antibacterial material in various applications.

Hemolymphangioma is a rare benign tumor, with only 12 reported cases in the pancreas as of May 2024. We present an invasive and giant hemolymphangioma of the pancreas in a young man who experienced abdominal pain and left epigastric distension for approximately 10 days. Imaging studies revealed a large cystic tumor located in the body and tail of the pancreas, which was compressing the partial lesser curvature of the stomach and spleen, displaying a "beaver tail" liver appearance on computed tomography scans.

Herein, we describe the successful development of an azido-fluorosulfonylation reaction of alkenes under photoredox catalysis, which could allow the installation of the two "clickable" groups, -N and -SOF, on a C-C double bond, with TMSN as the azide source. The utilization of the difunctionalization products is also demonstrated in the construction of a library of 1,2,3-triazolesulfonyl fluoride compounds as well as drug molecule ligation by merging copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC) and sulfur(VI) fluoride exchange (SuFEx), the two generations of click reactions. Mechanistic studies suggest a radical fluorosulfonylation/azidation mechanism and unveil FSON as a new and potential fluorosulfonyl radical precursor.

Background: Immunotherapy has been confirmed efficient in recurrent or metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), but its role in the locoregionally advanced setting is undetermined. Previous evidence in non-endemic areas of NPC is also lacking. This study evaluated the efficacy and safety of induction chemotherapy plus camrelizumab followed by concurrent chemoradiotherapy (CCRT) for patients with locoregionally advanced NPC in non-endemic areas.

p85β is a regulatory subunit of the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K). Emerging evidence suggests that p85β goes beyond its role in the PI3K and is functional in the nucleus. In this study, we discover that nuclear p85β is enriched at gene loci and regulates gene transcription and that this regulatory role contributes to the oncogenic potential of nuclear p85β.

Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) is one of the most common stored-product pests, causing enormous economic losses and developing widespread resistance to chemical insecticides. Natural products derived from essential oils (EOs) are well-known for insecticidal activity against agricultural pests, especially in the management of stored-product pests. In this study, the chemical constituents and repellent, contact and fumigation toxicity activities of two Pelargonium EOs against T.

In recent years, the abuse of ketamine as a recreational drug has been growing, and has become one of the most widely abused drugs. Continuous using ketamine poses a risk of drug addiction and complications such as attention deficit disorder, memory loss and cognitive decline. Ketamine-induced neurotoxicity is thought to play a key role in the development of these neurological complications.

Coexistence of fertilizers and pesticides in farmlands may alter the biodegradation of the latter. Herein, the effects of fertilizers, namely urea (N), superphosphate (P), potassium sulfate (K), compound fertilizers (NPK), chicken manure (CM), rice husk ash (PA) on the environmental behaviors of metolachlor (MET) are investigated. The sorption of MET is reduced by N and NPK at 1 mg/g (nitrogen content) but enhanced by CM and PA at 10 mg/g in soil.

Applying biogas slurry containing antibiotics as organic fertilizer to farmland can lead to the accumulation of antibiotics in the soil and access the water environment further through surface runoff and leachate, posing a potential risk to the regional water environment. In this study, photocatalysis was performed to degrade the antibiotics in biogas slurry employing g-CN as a catalyst under visible light and sunlight. g-CN was prepared by simple thermal polymerization at different temperatures and times with cheap urea and melamine, respectively, and the yield, structural characterization, and photocatalytic performance were analyzed.

Quinones, as highly redox active molecules in biology, are believed to react with hydroperoxides to produce highly reactive OH, assuming that radical adducts are exclusively formed by the addition of free radicals to the spin trap as detected by the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) methodology. Here, direct formation of the same DMPO adduct as that formed by genuine radical trapping of OH is discovered, while quinones (i.e.

Background: Different stroke etiologies are associated with varied incidences of early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The TREND trial demonstrated the efficacy of tirofiban in preventing END in patients with AIS. Herein, we conducted a pre-specified subgroup analysis of this trial data to investigate whether stroke etiologies influenced the effects of tirofiban.

K-ion batteries face significant challenges due to a severe shortage of active K ions, with cathode materials typically containing less than 70% K ions and first-cycle irreversible reactions consuming up to 20% more. Conventional K-ion compensation methods fail to supply sufficient K ions without compromising cell integrity. To address this, we introduce potassium sulfocyanate (KSCN) as an electrolyte additive capable of delivering up to 100% active K ions.

Mitochondria, as the central hub of cellular energy metabolism and a critical regulator of signaling pathways, play indispensable roles in spermatogenesis and sperm function. In recent years, the mechanisms by which RNA-binding proteins regulate reproductive development and gametogenesis have emerged as a focal point in mitochondrial biology. Here, we review the latest progresses on the role of mitochondrial translation and its associated ribosomal regulation in sperm formation and activation.
