Ultrathin Graphdiyne/Graphene Heterostructure as a Robust Electrochemical Sensing Platform.

Graphdiyne (GDY) has been considered as an appealing electrode material for electrochemical sensing because of its alkyne-rich structure and high degrees of π-conjugation, which shows great affinity to heavy metal ions and pollutant molecules via d-π and π-π interactions. However, the low surface area and poor conductivity of bulk GDY limit its electrochemical performance. Herein, a two-dimensional ultrathin GDY/graphene (GDY/G) nanostructure was synthesized and used as an electrode material for electrochemical sensing.

PFP alleviates nonalcoholic steatohepatitis fatty liver in both Apo E mice and Changliver cell[S].

High-calorie food leads to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) through the dysregulation of genes involved in lipid metabolism, but the precise mechanism is still unknown. Pomegranate flowers are used to treat diabetes mellitus in traditional Uighur medicine. Here we sought to investigate the effect and mechanism of pomegranate flower polyphenols (PFP) on NAFLD Apo E mice induced by a high-fat diet (HFD) and whether PFP improves NAFLD through decreasing oxidative stress.
