The effect of heavy atoms replacement sites on the luminescent ways of D-A-D type diphenyl sulfone molecules: Thermally activated delayed fluorescence and phosphorescence.

To obtain efficient pure organic thermally activated delayed fluorescence (TADF) materials, introducing non-metal heavy atoms is the common molecular design strategy, enhancing the intrinsically weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC) between singlet and triplet excited states by heavy-atom effect. However, the effect of heavy atom replacement sites is rarely explored. Herein, two series of molecules are investigated on the basis of different heavy atoms replacement sites to reveal the inherent structure-property relationships.

Interleukin-1β Protection Against Experimental Sepsis in Mice.

The inflammatory response involving interleukin-1β (IL-1β) has been thought to play an important role in the development of late-phase sepsis. However, in this study, we wanted to explore the possibility of using IL-1β to improve the prognosis of sepsis by triggering local differentiation of bone marrow cells (BMCs) into regulatory dendritic cells (DCs) in vivo, thereby reversing the immune paralysis in late-phase sepsis. Sepsis mouse models were induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) and lethal Escherichia coli O18 infection.
