Published: March 2019

We grew binary PbSe nanowires in an in situ gas-heating cell in a transmission electron microscope and elucidated species dependent mass transport pathways and key correlations among supersaturation, nucleation, and growth kinetics, thereby enabling morphological and compositional control of nanowires with tailored properties.

Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) are among the most promising sustainable electrochemical technologies to help solve energy challenges. Compared to proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), AEMFCs offer a broader choice of catalyst materials and a less corrosive operating environment for the bipolar plates and the membrane. This can lead to potentially lower costs and longer operational life than PEMFCs.

Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) plays a crucial role in facilitating electron transport during oxidative phosphorylation, thus contributing to cellular energy production. Statin treatment causes a decrease in CoQ10 levels in muscle tissue as well as in serum, which may contribute to the musculoskeletal side effects. Therefore, we aimed to assess the effect of newly initiated statin treatment on serum CoQ10 levels after acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and the correlation of CoQ10 levels with key biomarkers of subclinical or clinically overt myopathy.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) is a commonly used immunosuppressant. In the human body, MPA is metabolized into mycophenolic acid 7-O-glucuronide (MPAG) and mycophenolic acid acyl-glucuronide (AcMPAG) mainly through liver glucuronidation, which involves UDP-glucuronosyltransferase (UGTs) and transfer proteins. Research has indicated that the pharmaceutical excipient PEG400 can impact drug processes in the body, potentially affecting the pharmacokinetics of MPA.

Hypertension is a multifactorial and complex disease influenced by genetic and environmental factors, and it has become one of the most serious public health challenges. This study aimed to investigate the changes in hypertension based on urinary proteome. The stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSPs) model was used to examined urinary proteome changes during the development of hypertension.
