The subcommissural organ (SCO) is a circumventricular organ highly conserved in vertebrates from such as lamprey to mammals including human. The SCO locates in the boundary between the third ventricle and the entrance of the aqueduct of Sylvius. The SCO functions as a secretory organ producing a variety of proteins such as SCO-spondin, transthyretin, and basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF) into the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). A significant contribution of the SCO has been thought to maintain the homeostasis of CSF dynamics. However, evidence has shown a possible role of SCO on neurogenesis in the adult brain. This review highlights specific features of the SCO related to adult neurogenesis, suggested by the progress of understanding SCO functions. We begin with a brief history of the SCO discovery and continue to structural features, gene expression, and a possible role in adult neurogenesis suggested by the SCO transplant experiment.

Spin crossover (SCO) iron (II) coordination compounds in the form of nanohybrid SCO@SiO particles were prepared using a reverse micelles technique based on the TritonX-100/cyclohexane/water ternary system. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) acts as precursor of both the SiF counter-anion and SiO to obtain Fe(NHtrz)(BF)(SiF)@SiO nanoparticles with different sizes and morphologies while modifying the TEOS concentration and reaction time. The adjustable mixed-anion strategy leads to a range of quite scarce abrupt spin crossover behaviors with hysteresis just above room temperature (ca.

Tandem Reaction on Ru/Cu-CHA Catalysts for Ammonia Elimination with Enhanced Activity and Selectivity.

Environ Sci Technol

January 2025

State Key Joint Laboratory of Environment Simulation and Pollution Control, Research Center for Eco-Environmental Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100085, China.

Ammonia emissions from vehicles and power plants cause severe environmental issues, including haze pollution and nitrogen deposition. Selective catalytic oxidation (SCO) is a promising technology for ammonia abatement, but current catalysts often struggle with insufficient activity and poor nitrogen selectivity, leading to the formation of secondary pollutants. In this study, we developed a bifunctional Ru/Cu-CHA zeolite catalyst for ammonia oxidation, incorporating both SCO sites (Ru) and selective catalytic reduction sites (SCR, Cu).

The development of molecular species with switchable magnetic properties has been a long-standing challenge in chemistry. One approach involves binding an analyte, such as protons, to a compound to trigger a change in magnetism. Transition metal complexes have been targeted for this type of magnetic modulation because they can undergo changes in their spin states.

Integrating life cycle assessment into supply chain optimization.

PLoS One

January 2025

Department of Operations Analytics, School of Business and Economics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Integrating Supply Chain Optimization (SCO) with Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is essential for creating supply chains that are both economically efficient and environmentally sustainable. While SCO focuses on optimizing network structures and decisions related to product and service delivery, LCA systematically assesses the environmental impacts across the entire supply chain. The existing literature treats SCO and LCA as separate, sequential steps, often leading to inconsistencies in scope and challenges in data transfer and rescaling.
