Objective: To explore an efficient, stable system and method to verify the regulation effect of small molecule compounds on human hematopoietic stem cells (hHSC).
Methods: By using combination of flow cytometry with study results of surface markers on hHSC, and optimation of sorting process for further studying the effect of small molecular compounds on stem property of hHSC, the single hHSC was treated with published small molecular compounds such as SR1 and UM171 which possess the expansion effect. After treating with hHSC for 14 d, the flow cytometric analysis of cell phenotypes and cell morphologic observation were performed, at the same time the hematopoietic function of cultured hHSC was verified by colony-forming cell (CFC) test and cobblestone area forming cell (CAFC) test.
Results: The effects of SR1 and UM171 and their compositions in multi-cell culture were consistent with the published data, therefore the useful concentration of compounds were obtained. The results of multiparameter sorting of single cell (CD34+ CD38- CD45RA- CD90+ CD49f+) and ex vivo culture were consistent with the results of bulk cell culture. The results of cell phenotype analysis was in accordance with flow cytometric results. In addition, CFC test and CAFC test revealed that the colony-forming ability in treated group was significantly higher than that in control group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The rapid, efficient stably amplified and short-time culture system for single hHSC and method for varifying the effect of small molecular compounds are established, which provides platform for screening small molecular compounds and lays the foundation for further study of hHSC expansion.

Molecular glues (MGs) and proteolysis-targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are used to modulate protein-protein interactions (PPIs), via induced proximity between compounds that have little or no affinity for each other naturally. They promote either reversible inhibition or selective degradation of a target protein, including ones deemed undruggable by traditional therapeutics. Though native MS (nMS) is capable of analyzing multiprotein complexes, the behavior of these artificially induced compounds in the gas phase is still not fully understood, and the number of publications over the past few years is still rather limited.

Chlorophenols are difficult to degrade and mineralize by traditional advanced oxidation processes due to the strong electronegativity of chlorine. Here, a dual-site atomically dispersed catalyst (FeMoNC) is reported, which Fe/Mo supported on mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbon is prepared through high-temperature migration. The FeMoNC exhibits a high dechlorination rate of 93.

Carbazole-derived self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) are promising materials for hole-extraction layer (HEL) in conventional organic photovoltaics (OPVs). Here, a SAM Cbz-2Ph derived from 3,6-diphenylcarbazole is demonstrated. The large molecular dipole moment of Cbz-2Ph allows the modulation of electrode work function to facilitate hole extraction and maximize photovoltage, thus improving the OPV performance.

In situ monitoring is essential for catalytic process design, offering real-time insights into active structures and reactive intermediates. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy excels at probing geometric and electronic properties of paramagnetic species during reactions. Yet, state-of-the-art liquid-phase EPR methods, like flat cells, require custom resonators, consume large amounts of reagents, and are unsuited for tracking initial kinetics or use with solid catalysts.
