Inorganic ammonium (NH) is the simplest amine cation with perfect symmetry, the smallest radius and many H atoms, allowing itself to be used as a potential dopant in achieving high-quality perovskite materials. As a composition-modulation strategy, NH-doped (NH)CsCuI (0 < < 1.5) lead-free perovskites were successfully synthesized the eco-friendly ball milling method in this work. As the ammonium content increases, the lattice constants of (NH)CsCuI shrink and the grain sizes increase. The doping of NH effectively passivates the lattice defects, suppresses the non-radiative recombination and tunes the energy band structure, resulting in better fluorescence properties. UV-pumped deep-blue LEDs based on (NH)CsCuI phosphors were fabricated, which showed improved performance and tunable emission. These results demonstrate the potential of the NH-doping strategy for improving the performance of lead-free perovskite optoelectronics.

Background: As a complex disease, hypertension (HTN) is influenced by both genetic and environmental factors and their interaction. The calcium signaling pathway is known to be involved in the regulation of blood pressure, and dysfunction in this pathway may contribute to the development of hypertension. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several genes in the calcium signaling pathway associated with susceptibility to HTN, including PLCB1, ATP2B1, and ADRB1.

Sulfurized polyacrylonitrile (SPAN) exhibits a very high cycle stability by overcoming the shuttle effect of conventional Li-S batteries. However, there are still controversies in SPAN about the bonding types of sulfur with the matrix, their critical synthesis temperature regions, and their roles in the electrochemical lithium storage reaction, seriously hindering the economical synthesis of SPAN, the optimization of performances, and the exploration of other SPAN-like alternatives. The key to solving the above problems lies in accurate measurements of the thermodynamic evolution of bonding interactions in the synthesis process as well as in the electrochemical process.

The transcription factor p53 is exquisitely sensitive and selective to a broad variety of cellular environments. Several studies have reported that oxidative stress weakens the p53-DNA binding affinity for certain promoters depending on the oxidation mechanism. Despite this body of work, the precise mechanisms by which the physiologically relevant DNA-p53 tetramer complex senses cellular stresses caused by HO are still unknown.

Background: To decipher the mechanisms underlying the protective role of the Mediterranean diet (MED) in Crohn's disease (CD), we explored the implications of adherence to MED on CD course, inflammatory markers, microbial and metabolite composition.
Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed CD were recruited and followed prospectively. MED adherence was assessed by repeated food frequency questionnaires (FFQ), using a predefined IBDMED score, alongside validated MED adherence screeners.

One of the most common diseases worldwide is anemia, which is characterized by insufficient erythrocyte production. Numerous complex factors, such as chronic diseases, genetic mutations, and nutritional inadequacies, contribute to this widespread syndrome. This review focuses specifically on anemias caused by defective hepcidin production.
