Electrochemical nitrogen conversion for ammonia (NH) synthesis, driven by renewable electricity, offers a sustainable alternative to the traditional Haber-Bosch process. However, this conversion process remains limited by a low Faradaic efficiency (FE) and NH yield. Although transition metals have been widely studied as catalysts for NH synthesis through effective electron donation/back-donation mechanisms, there are challenges in electrochemical environments, including competitive hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and catalyst stability issues.

Circadian regulation of skin pigmentation is essential for thermoregulation, ultraviolet (UV) protection, and synchronization of skin cell renewal. This regulation involves both cell-autonomous photic responses and non-cell-autonomous hormonal control, particularly through melatonin produced in a light-sensitive manner. Photosensitive opsins, cryptochromes, and melatonin regulate circadian rhythms in skin pigment cells.

Background: To assess how centralisation of cancer services via robotic surgery influenced positive surgical margin (PSM) occurrence and its associated risk of biochemical recurrence (BCR) in cases of pT2 prostate cancer (PC).
Methods: Retrospective analysis of all radical prostatectomy (RP) cases performed in the West of Scotland during the period from January 2013 to June 2022. Primary outcomes were PSM and BCR.

Several studies indicate that fructose can be used as an energy source for subterranean rodents. However, how subterranean rodents utilize fructose metabolism with no apparent physiological drawbacks remains poorly understood. In the present study, we measured field excitatory postsynaptic potentials (fEPSPs) in hippocampal slices from Gansu zokor and SD rats hippocampi before and 60 min after replacement of 10 mM glucose in the artificial cerebrospinal fluid (ACSF) with 10 mM fructose (gassed with 95 % O and 5 % CO).

Cells integrate metabolic information into core molecular processes such as transcription to adapt to environmental changes. Chromatin, the physiological template of the eukaryotic genome, has emerged as a sensor and rheostat for fluctuating intracellular metabolites. In this review, we highlight the growing list of chromatin-associated metabolites that are derived from diverse sources.
