Ligand‐Mediated Surface Carrier Modulation in Perovskite Nanocrystals for Charge‐Symmetric LEDs

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A hydrolysis‐assisted ligand exchange strategy enables surface carrier modulation of perovskite nanocrystals using a multifunctional π‐conjugated ligand. This molecular surface design achieves charge balance and recombination‐zone symmetry in light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), which leads to high‐efficiency perovskite LEDs and establishes a general platform

Oral Branched-Chain Amino Acid Supplements That Reduce Brain Serotonin During Exercise in Rats Also Lower Brain Catecholamines [PDF]

, 2013
Exercise raises brain serotonin release and is postulated to cause fatigue in athletes; ingestion of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA), by competitively inhibiting tryptophan transport into brain, lowers brain tryptophan uptake and serotonin synthesis ...

Enoyl-CoA hydratase-1 regulates mTOR signaling and apoptosis by sensing nutrients

Nature Communications, 2017
Overnutrition has been linked to increased risk of cancer. Here, the authors show that exceeding nutrients suppress Enoyl-CoA hydratase-1 (ECHS1) activity by inducing its acetylation resulting in accumulation of fatty acids and branched-chain amino acids
