Continuous Flow Electrochemical Synthesis of Olivine ‐Structured NaFePO4 Cathode Material for Sodium‐Ion Batteries from Recycle LiFePO4
Schematic of the working principle of a continuous flow electrochemical solid-liquid coupled reactor for the synthesis of NFP, by which NFP is successfully synthesized at 50% of the theoretical reductant dosage. The binding energy of NaxFePO4 (0< x< 0.95) is calculated to investigate the incomplete insertion of sodium ions during NFP synthesis. AbstractTo mitigate the environmental impact of the improper disposal of spent LiFePO4 batteries and reduce resource waste, the development of LiFePO4 recycling technologies is of paramount importance. Meanwhile, olivine-structured NaFePO4 in sodium-ion batteries has received ...

Spatial Atlas for Mapping Vascular Microcalcification Using 18F-NaF PET/CT: Application in Hyperphosphatemic Familial Tumoral Calcinosis
CONCLUSIONS: This technique affords the ability to visualize spatial patterns of the active microcalcification process in the peripheral vasculature. Further, this technique affords the ability to track microcalcifications at precise locations not only across time but also across subjects. This technique is readily adaptable to other diseases of vascular calcification and may represent a significant advance in the field of vascular biology.PMID:38660800 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320455 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Acetyl-CoA-dependent ac < sup > 4 < /sup > C acetylation promotes the osteogenic differentiation of LPS-stimulated BMSCs
Int Immunopharmacol. 2024 Apr 24;133:112124. doi: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112124. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe impaired osteogenic capability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) caused by persistent inflammation is the main pathogenesis of inflammatory bone diseases. Recent studies show that metabolism is disturbed in osteogenically differentiated BMSCs in response to Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment, while the mechanism involved remains incompletely revealed. Herein, we demonstrated that BMSCs adapted their metabolism to regulate acetyl-coenzyme A (acetyl-CoA) availability and RNA acetylation level, ultimat...

Synthesis and evaluation of pentacyclic triterpenoids conjugates as novel HBV entry inhibitors targeting NTCP receptor
In this study, pentacyclic triterpenoids (PTs) including glycyrrhetinic acid (GA), oleanolic acid (OA), ursolic acid (UA) and betulinic acid (BA) were modified via molecular hybridization with podophyllotoxin respectively, and resulted in thirty-two novel conjugates. The anti-HBV activities of conjugates were evaluated in HepG2.2.15 cells. The results showed that 66% of the conjugates exhibited lower toxicity to the host cells and had significant inhibitory effects on the two HBV antigens, especially HBsAg. Notably, the compounds BA-PPT1, BA-PPT3, BA-PPT4, and UA-PPT3 not only inhibited the secretion of HBsAg but also supp...

Revealing Na+-coordination Induced Failure Mechanism of Metal Sulfide Anode for Sodium Ion Batteries
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2024 Apr 25:e202403463. doi: 10.1002/anie.202403463. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMetal sulfide (MS) is regarded as a promising candidate of the anode materials for sodium-ion battery (SIB) with ideal capacity and low cost, yet still suffers from the inferior cycling stability and voltage degradation. Herein, the coordination relationship between the discharge product Na2S with the Na+ (NaPF6) in the electrolyte, is revealed as the root cause for the cycling failure of MS. Na+-coordination effect assistants the dissolution of Na2S, further delocalizing Na2S from the reaction interface under the fun...
