PtRu-based catalysts toward hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) suffer from low efficiency, CO poisoning and over-oxidation at high potentials. In this work, an amorphization strategy is adopted for preparation of amorphous SrRuPtOH nanobelts (a-SrRuPtOH NBs). The a-SrRuPtOH NBs has optimized adsorption of intermediates (H and OH), increased number of active sites, highly weakened CO poisoning and enhanced anti-oxidation ability owing to the special amorphous structure. Consequently, a-SrRuPtOH NBs displays superior HOR performance with a mass activity of 7.5 A/mg, 25 and 5 times of that of SrRuPt(OH) NBs and commercial PtRu/C, respectively, and long-lasting stability. Besides, a peak power density of 750 mW/cm and a specific power of 14.8 W/mg have been achieved for a-SrRuPtOH NBs at a low loading of 0.05 mg/cm, surpassing many reported HOR catalysts. Mechanism investigation indicates that Pt and Ru are present in oxide/hydroxide forms and H in a-SrRuPtOH NBs participates in HOR. Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that there are three catalytic mechanisms participating in a-SrRuPtOH NBs, which all exhibit low catalytic barrier and highly improved HOR efficiency. This work provides a new strategy for designing high-performance catalysts towards fuel cells.

The Drosophila TRIM-NHL RNA-binding protein (RBP), MEI-P26, has previously been shown to suppress tumor formation in the germline. Here we show that, in the Drosophila larval central brain, cell-type specific expression of MEI-P26 plays a vital role in regulating neural development. MEI-P26 and another TRIM-NHL RBP, Brain tumor (BRAT), have distinct expression patterns in Type I neuroblast (NB) lineages: While both proteins are expressed in NBs, BRAT is expressed in ganglion mother cells (GMCs) but not neurons whereas MEI-P26 is expressed in neurons but not GMCs.

Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMD) refers to clinical symptoms caused by structural and functional damage to coronary microcirculation. The timely and precise diagnosis of CMD-related myocardial ischemia is essential for improving patient prognosis. This study describes a method for the multimodal (fluorescence, ultrasonic, and photoacoustic) noninvasive imaging and treatment of CMD based on ischemic myocardium-targeting peptide (IMTP)-guided nanobubbles functionalized with indocyanine green (IMTP/ICG NBs) and characterizes their basic characteristics and in vitro imaging and targeting abilities.

Thyroid hormone (TH) is essential for brain development in utero and during the first two to three years of life. The negative effects of TH deficiency on brain development are irreversible. Early detection of TH deficiency in neonates (congenital hypothyroidism (CH) through newborn screening (NBS)) allows for early treatment, thereby preventing brain damage.

Low-lying and small tropical coral reef islands around the world are extremely vulnerable to the effects of global environmental change caused by the combination of anthropogenic climate change and escalating extreme hydrodynamic events. Erosion and inundation are anticipated to physically destabilize the tropical coral reef islands, rendering them uninhabitable within the next century. Therefore, it is crucial to assess the repercussions of these hazardous events on the delicate reef island ecosystem in order to conserve and ensure sustainable management.

In recent years, the number of diseases included in newborn screening (NBS) tests has increased rapidly, led by the development of both technology and treatments. Many neurometabolic diseases can now be screened, but direct involvement of the brain, especially in the severe forms of these diseases, causes challenges in NBS. For example, differentiating between neuropathic and nonneuropathic types of disease is difficult but critical because the treatments used can differ.
