The rate of delta mu H+ --induced erythrocyte Na+/H+ exchange is increased in both patients with essential hypertension (EH) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). The increase of Na+,K(+)-cotransport was revealed in erythrocytes of SHR only. This alteration as well as a decrease of mean cell volume were observed in both young and old erythrocytes of SHR. The moderate shrinkage of rat (but not human) erythrocytes results in an increase of the rate of Na+,K(+)-cotransport. The more pronounced shrinkage of rat (but not human) erythrocytes induces the Na+/H+ exchange. These reactions are accompanied by phosphoinositide response. Activator of protein kinase C (TPA) increases delta mu H+ --induced Na+/H+ exchange both in human and rat erythrocytes but it does not modify phosphoinositide metabolism. No differences were observed in the rate of Na+/H+ exchange between TPA-treated erythrocytes of SHR and WKY. We assume that the activation of protein kinase C increases Na+/H+ exchange in primary hypertension. Increased Na+/H(+)-cotransport revealed in an experimental model of primary hypertension is probably due to the decrease of erythrocyte volume.

Exosome Isolation Using Chitosan Oligosaccharide Lactate-1-Pyrenecarboxylic Acid-Based Self-Assembled Magnetic Nanoclusters.

Exosomes are small extracellular vesicles that play a crucial role in intercellular communication and offer significant potential for a wide range of biomedical applications. However, conventional methods for exosome isolation have limitations in terms of purity, scalability, and preservation of exosome structural integrity. To address these challenges, an exosome isolation platform using chitosan oligosaccharide lactate conjugated 1-pyrenecarboxylic acid (COL-Py) based self-assembled magnetic nanoclusters (CMNCs), is presented.

Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi are key players in forest carbon (C) sequestration, receiving a substantial proportion of photosynthetic C from their forest tree hosts in exchange for plant growth-limiting soil nutrients. However, it remains unknown whether the fungus or plant controls the quantum of C in this exchange, nor what mechanisms are involved. Here, we aimed to identify physiological and genetic properties of both partners that influence ECM C transfer.

The topological Hall effect has been observed in magnetic materials of complex spin structures or bilayers of trivial magnets and strong spin-orbit-coupled systems. In view of current attention on dissipationless topological electronics, the occurrence of the topological Hall effect in new systems or by an unexpected mechanism is fascinating. Here, we report a robust topological Hall effect generated in bilayers of a ferromagnet and a noncoplanar antiferromagnet, from the interfacial Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction due to the exchange coupling of magnetic layers.

Photoredox nickel catalysis has emerged as a powerful strategy for cross-coupling reactions. Although the involvement of paramagnetic Ni(I)/Ni(III) species as active intermediates in the catalytic cycle has been proposed, a thorough spectroscopic investigation of these species is lacking. Herein, we report the tridentate pyridinophane ligands N3 that allow for detailed mechanistic studies of the photocatalytic C-O coupling reaction.
