Breaking Anionic Solvation Barrier for Safe and Durable Potassium-ion Batteries Under Ultrahigh-Voltage Operation.

Ultrahigh-voltage potassium-ion batteries (PIBs) with cost competitiveness represent a viable route towards high energy battery systems. Nevertheless, rapid capacity decay with poor Coulombic efficiencies remains intractable, mainly attributed to interfacial instability from aggressive potassium metal anodes and cathodes. Additionally, high reactivity of K metal and flammable electrolytes pose severe safety hazards.

Aging-dependent temporal regulation of MIR156 epigenetic silencing by CiLDL1 and CiNF-YB8 in chrysanthemum.

Temporal decline in microRNA miR156 expression is crucial for the transition to, and maintenance of, the adult phase and flowering competence in flowering plants. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the temporal regulation of miR156 reduction remain largely unknown. Here, we investigated the epigenetic mechanism regulating the temporal silencing of cin-MIR156 in wild chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum indicum), focusing on the role of the lysine-specific demethylase CiLDL1 and the nuclear factor Y complex.

TP53 Mutations are Associated with CD19 Negative Relapse and Inferior Outcomes after Blinatumomab in Adults with ALL.

Despite the success of the CD19xCD3 T cell engager blinatumomab in B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (B-ALL), treatment failure is common and can manifest with antigen loss and extramedullary disease (EMD) relapse. To understand the impact of leukemia genetics on outcomes, we reviewed 267 adult patients with B-ALL treated with blinatumomab and used next generation sequencing to identify molecular alterations. Patients received blinatumomab for relapsed/refractory (R/R) disease (n=150), minimal residual disease (MRD+) (n=88), upfront as induction (n=10), or as consolidation in MRD- state (n=19).

Orientation-Dependent Anisotropic Desalination by Assembled Zeolite Nanotube Membranes.

Porous nanomaterials have shown great promise in many desalination applications. Zeolite nanotubes, featuring abundant but inhomogeneous nanopores on their surface, have been recently synthesized in experiments; however, their capacity for desalination is not yet understood. In this work, we use molecular dynamics simulations to investigate the capability of assembled zeolite nanotube membranes to perform in desalination applications due to their inherent multiscale porous properties.

Bioinspired broadband antireflection coatings on silicon wafers enabled by a polyimide-assisted self-masking technique.

Here we report a simple self-masking technique for fabricating bioinspired broadband antireflection coatings on both single-crystalline and multicrystalline silicon wafers with the assistance of a polyimide tape. Subwavelength-structured moth-eye nanopillars, which exhibit superior antireflection performance over a broad range of visible and near-IR wavelengths, can be patterned uniformly on the wafer surface by applying a chlorine-based reactive ion etching (RIE) process. The resulting random nanopillars show improved antireflection properties compared with ordered nanopillars templated by colloidal lithography under the same RIE conditions.
