In this contribution, a novel cellulose acetate modified with dopamine (CA-DA) membrane material was designed and prepared by a two-step route consist of chlorination and further substitution reactions. The chemical structure of the prepared CA-DA material was determined by FTIR and H NMR, respectively. The CA-DA ultrafiltration membrane was subsequently fabricated by the scalable phase inversion process. Compared with cellulose acetate membrane as the control sample, the introduction of dopamine improved the porosity, pore size and hydrophilicity of the CA-DA membrane, which was helpful to the water permeability (181.2 L/mh) without obviously affecting the protein rejection (93.5%). According to the static protein adsorption and dynamic cycle ultrafiltration experiments, the CA-DA membrane displayed persistent antifouling performance, which was verified by flux recovery ratio, flux decline ratio and filtration resistance. Moreover, the water flux recovery ratio of the CA-DA membrane was retained at 97.3% after three-cycles of BSA solution filtration, which was much higher than that of the reference CA membrane. This new approach provided a long life and excellent ultrafiltration performance for polymer-based membranes, which has potential application prospects in the field of separation process.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has emerged as a highly efficacious therapeutic modality for malignant tumors owing to its non-invasive property and minimal adverse effects. However, the pervasive hypoxic microenvironment within tumors significantly compromises the efficacy of oxygen-dependent PDT, posing a formidable challenge to the advancement of high-efficiency PDT. Here, we developed a nanostructured photosensitizer (PS) assembled by cationic and anionic zinc phthalocyanines to load oxygen-throttling drug atovaquone (ATO), which was subsequently coated with polydopamine to obtain the final product ATO/ZnPc-CA@DA.

Objective: The goal of the present study was to identify specific genetic associations with smoking progression in adolescents and to determine whether these genetic effects on smoking practices are potentiated by depression symptoms.
Method: Effects of dopamine transporter (SLC6A3) and dopamine receptor (DRD2) genetic variants on smoking progression were evaluated in a cohort of 615 adolescents, including those who had never smoked, and in a subgroup including only adolescents who had been exposed to nicotine (i.e.
Relation between food reinforcement and dopamine genotypes and its effect on food intake in smokers.

Background: Food reinforcement and dopaminergic activity may influence food consumption, but research on whether they interact has not been performed.
Objective: We assessed the effects of food reinforcement and the interaction of food reinforcement with the dopamine transporter (SLC6A3) genotype and the dopamine D(2) receptor (DRD(2)) genotype on energy consumption.
Design: We studied food-consumption and reinforcing-value-of-food tasks in 88 smokers of European ancestry before they enrolled in smoking-cessation treatment.

This study examined the role of dopaminergic genes in prospective smoking cessation and response to bupropion treatment in a placebo-controlled clinical trial. Smokers of European ancestry (N=418) provided blood samples for genetic analysis and received either bupropion or placebo (10 weeks) plus counseling. Assessments included the dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) genotype, dopamine transporter (SLC6A3) genotype, demographic factors, and nicotine dependence.
