Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the universe, and they constitute the interiors of gas giant planets. Thus, their equations of states, phase, chemical state, and chemical reactivity at extreme conditions are of great interest. Applying Raman spectroscopy, visual observation, and synchrotron X-ray diffraction in diamond anvil cells, we performed experiments on H-He 1:1 and D-He 1:10 compressed gas mixtures up to 100 GPa at 300 K. By comparing with the available data on pure bulk materials, we find no sign of miscibility, chemical reactivity, and new compound formation. This result establishes a new baseline for future investigations of miscibility in the He-H system at extreme P-T conditions.

The SARS-CoV-2 papain-like protease PLpro has multiple roles in the viral replication cycle, related to both its polypeptide cleavage function and its ability to antagonize the host immune response. Targeting the PLpro function is recognized as a promising mechanism to modulate viral replication, while supporting host immune responses. However, the development of PLpro-specific inhibitors remains challenging.

Discovery of indole analogue Tc3 as a potent pyroptosis inducer and identification of its combination strategy against hepatic carcinoma.

Hepatic carcinoma, one of the most malignant cancers in the world, has limited success with immunotherapy and a poor prognosis in patients. While pyroptosis is considered as a promising immunotherapy strategy for tumors, it still suffers from a lack of effective inducers. We designed, synthesized and screened an indole analogue, , featuring a 2, 4-thiazolidinedione substituted indole scaffold.

Improved Mechanistic Modeling on Reproducing Particle-Bound Mercury in the Marine Atmosphere.

Mercury (Hg) is a neurotoxic pollutant that is ubiquitous on the planet and receives global concern because of its adverse health effects. Particle-bound Hg formation in the atmosphere stems mainly from the adsorption of reactive gaseous Hg on aerosol particles, particularly sea salt aerosol. However, the observed comparable abundance of Hg over Hg in the marine atmosphere has not been reproduced by traditional statistics-based schemes, which were constructed by continental observations.

Background: The escalating global prevalence of food allergies has intensified the need for hypoallergenic food products. Transglutaminase (TGase)-mediated crosslinking has garnered significant attention for its potential to reduce the allergenicity of food proteins. This study aimed to investigate the effects of TGase crosslinking on the potential allergenicity and conformational changes in a dual-protein system composed of β-lactoglobulin (β-LG) and soy protein isolate (SPI) at varying mass ratios (10:0, 7:3, 5:5, 3:7 and 0:10 (w/w)).
