The optical spectrum and the local defect structure of tetrahedral (FeO4)(5-) clusters are investigated in yttrium gallium garnet (YGG) and lutetium gallium garnet (LGG) crystals by means of the 252x252 complete energy matrices for d(5) configuration ions in tetragonal ligand field. The results show that the local defect structures around tetrahedral Fe3+ centers display an expansion effect. Simultaneously, the (FeO4(5-) clusters in the two different crystals have very similar local structures, which are close to those in YIG garnet crystal. Finally the relative curves of the zero-field splitting energies DeltaE1 and DeltaE2 in the ground state (6)A(1) varying with the structure parameter theta are plotted.

Germline variants of FLI1, essential for megakaryopoiesis, are linked to bleeding disorders, platelet aggregation defects and mild thrombocytopenia. However, the mechanisms behind these abnormalities remain unclear. This study aims to elucidate the impact of FLI1 variants on human megakaryocytes and platelets.

The dual-site electrocatalysts formed by metal single atoms combines with metal nanoparticles represent a promising strategy to enhance both oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance. Herein, defect engineering is applied to dual-site ORR and OER electrocatalysts. Its design, synthesis, structural properties, and catalytic performance experimentally and theoretically are insightfully studied for the single-atomic Fe─N and the adjacent FeCo nanoalloy (FeCo) as dual-site loading on nitrogen-doped graphene aerogel (Fe─N/FeCo@NGA).

Oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) can adversely affect tissue repair, whereas endowing biomaterials with antioxidant activity can improve the in vivo microenvironment, thereby promoting angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Accordingly, this study utilized epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG), a material known for its reducing properties, oxidative self-polymerization capability, and strong binding characteristics, to modify a bioactive core-shell fibrous membrane (10RP-PG). Compared to the 10RP-PG fibrous membrane, the EGCG-modified fibrous membrane (E/10RP-PG) exhibited superior hydrophilicity, excellent cell adhesion, and compatibility.

The resection of bone tumors results in large bone defects with some residual tumor cells, and the treatment of this type of bone defect area often faces a dilemma, namely, the trade-off between bone repair and antitumor after the resection of bone tumors. In order to promote local bone repair, and at the same time inhibit tumor recurrence by continuous and controlled drug administration, we developed a multifunctional NIR-responsive scaffold, whose main components are polylactic acid and MXene, and loaded with PLGA/DOX microspheres, and we hope that the scaffold can take into account both antitumor and bone repair in the bidirectional modulation effect of NIR. The results showed that the scaffold with 1% MXene content had relatively good performance in photothermal therapy (PT) and other aspects, and it could be smoothly increased to 50 °C within 2 min under NIR illumination, and the drug release of microspheres was increased by 10% after illumination compared with that at body temperature.

The ABORTED MICROSPORES (AMS) gene is crucial for tapetal cell development and pollen formation, but its role in Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum) has not been previously documented. This study identified GhAMS11 as a key transcription factor, with its high expression specifically observed during the S4-S6 stages of anther development, a critical period for tapetal activity and pollen formation. Subcellular localization confirmed that GhAMS11 was located in the nucleus.
