Combined carbon ion radiotherapy and immunotherapy: leveraging the immunological advantages of carbon ion

Frontiers in Immunology
Immunotherapy represents a systemic approach to cancer treatment; however, its effectiveness can be limited by intrinsic tumor resistance or immunosuppressive mechanisms within the tumor microenvironment. In contrast, carbon ion radiotherapy (CIRT) demonstrates considerable immunomodulatory potential owing to its distinct biological properties.

Disposable electrochemical sensor for the detection of lead(II) ions in the natural water

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2021
The leaching of metal ions from the mines may result in pollution of the surrounding waters. In this work, we propose a composite material that combines porous carbon and graphene (G-C), which shows a very high sensitivity to lead ions.

Separation and hydrogenation of nitrate ions by micro-scale capacitive-faradaic fuel cells (CFFCs)

Electrochemistry Communications, 2020
A new electrochemical process is proposed for a zero-discharge removal of nitrate ions from water. The process utilizes micro-scale capacitive-faradaic fuel cells (CFFC) made of activated carbon particles loaded with a Pt-Cu catalyst capable of oxygen ...

Evolution‐guided yeast complementation reveals functional differences in human PSPH variants

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Ancient genomes can help guide which human genetic variants are tested experimentally. This study applies that idea to PSPH, a gene involved in serine biosynthesis, and uses high‐throughput yeast complementation to compare variant function. The findings reveal measurable differences among selected alleles and illustrate the value of evolution‐guided ...
