Nanobubble-induced significant reduction of the interfacial thermal conductance for few-layer graphene.

The heat transport properties of van der Waals layered structures are crucial for ensuring the reliability and longevity of high-performance optoelectronic equipment. Owing to the two-dimensional nature of atomic layers, the presence of bubbles is commonly observed within these structures. Nevertheless, the effect of bubbles on the interfacial thermal conductance remains unclear.

Selective Inhibition of PTP1B by New Anthraquinone Glycosides from .

Protein tyrosine phosphatase 1B (PTP1B) is highly validated as a therapeutic target for type 2 diabetes. However, active site-directed PTP1B inhibitors generally suffer from poor selectivity and bioavailability. Inspired by the identification of a unique anthraquinone-coumarin hybrid from exhibiting good specificity for PTP1B over the highly homologous T-cell protein tyrosine phosphatase (TCPTP), further chemical investigation of this plant species led to the isolation of nine new anthraquinone glycosides (-) and two known ones ( and ).

Effects of gentiana scabra bage on expression of hepatic type I, III collagen proteins in Paragonimus skrjabini rats with liver fibrosis.

Objective: To explore the effects of gentiana scabra bage on the expression of hepatic collagen proteins in Paragonimus skrjabini rats with liver fibrosis.

Methods: Immunohistochemical technique was used to observe the changes of content of hepatic type I, III collagen proteins in Paragonimus skrjabini rats with liver fibrosis before and after the gentiana scabra bage treatmeat.

Results: Comparing with the model group, changes of hepatic type I and type III collagen proteins in gentiana scabra bage treated group were significantly weakened.
