After more than 15 years of decline, the Malaria epidemy has increased again since 2017, reinforcing the need to identify drug candidates active on new targets involved in at least two biological stages of the Plasmodium life cycle. The SUB1 protease, which is essential for parasite egress in both hepatic and blood stages, would meet these criteria. We previously reported the structure-activity relationship analysis of α-ketoamide-containing inhibitors encompassing positions P4-P2'.

By analyzing the chemical characteristics of the formation water in the tight sandstone reservoirs of the P2x8 and P1s1 in the southern Ordos Basin, combined with rock mineral composition, reservoir physical properties, and well gas testing data, the genesis mechanism of formation water and its guiding role in gas reservoir development were discussed. The results show that the formation water is derived from the mixture of syngenetic seawater and meteoric water and has undergone remarkable modification by water-rock interactions, showing characteristics of Ca enrichment and Mg and SO depletion. The albitization of plagioclase in reservoir rock components causes Ca excess and Na deficiency in formation water, while the chloritization of albite leads to the increase of Na.

Acid fracturing fluids can effectively improve the microporous structure of coal, thereby enhancing the permeability of coal seam and the efficiency of gas drainage. To explore the effects of acid fracturing fluids on the pore structure modification of coal samples from different coal ranks, hydrochloric acid-based acid fracturing fluids were prepared and used to soak four types of medium to high-rank coal in an experiment. High-pressure mercury intrusion and liquid nitrogen adsorption techniques results demonstrated that the acid fracturing fluid can effectively alter the pore structure of coal.

Unidirectional moisture-conducting fabrics were prepared by electrospraying polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) onto three green fabric substrates, namely cotton, hemp, and modal. Experiments were conducted to examine the effects of coating thickness, coating material, and substrate material on the moisture conductivity of the fabrics. The electrospraying technique was effective in forming uniform and strongly adhered PVDF and PVC coatings on the fabric substrates, and the coating thickness and material type had a significant effect on the fabric's moisture conductivity.

Most cell types are mechanosensitive, their activities such as differentiation, proliferation and apoptosis, can be influenced by the mechanical environment through mechanical stimulation. In three dimensional (3D) mechanobiological in vitro studies, the porous structure of scaffold controls the local mechanical environment that applied to cells. Many previous studies have focused on the topological design of homogeneous scaffold struts.
