Proton‐Exchanged Montmorillonite With Interlayer Accessibility as a Solid Acid Catalyst for the Upcycling of Polyoxymethylene

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The first microwave‐assistance‐free heterogeneous catalytic upcycling of polyoxymethylene (POM) into valuable cyclic acetals is achieved with a reusable proton‐exchanged montmorillonite (H‐Mont) catalyst. Combining interlayer accessibility with strong acidity, H‐Mont enables efficient, regenerable, and versatile transformations with potentially biomass‐

Porcine Liver Esterase‐Catalyzed Dynamic Kinetic Resolution of a Lactone‐Bridged Biaryl: Impact of Organic Cosolvents on Enantioselectivity

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Organic Chemistry, EarlyView.
A stereolabile lactone‐bridged biaryl enables dynamic kinetic resolution to provide a conformationally stable ring‐opened biaryl. A significant positive effect of water‐immiscible organic cosolvents on the enantioselectivity in a reaction catalyzed by porcine liver esterase has been discovered for the first time.

Survey of tick-borne zoonotic viruses in wild deer in Hokkaido, Japan

open access: yesJournal of Veterinary Medical Science, 2018
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) and severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome (SFTS) are both tick-borne zoonotic diseases caused by TBE virus (TBEV) and SFTS phlebovirus (SFTSV). In 2016, a second domestic TBE case was reported in Hokkaido, Japan, after

Peptide RL‐QN15 Regulates Functions of Epidermal Stem Cells to Accelerate Skin Wound Regeneration via the FZD8/β‐Catenin Axis

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Amphibian‐derived peptide RL‐QN15 activates the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway by interacting with the FZD8 membrane receptor, promoting epidermal stem cells proliferation, migration, stemness, and EMT processes, thus promoting skin wound healing.

Multifunctional Properties of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) Essential Oil: Antimicrobial, Antibiofilm, and Insecticidal Effects

open access: yesFlavour and Fragrance Journal, EarlyView.
Unveiling the potential of Wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens) essential oil. ABSTRACT This study investigated the antimicrobial, antibiofilm, and insecticidal properties of wintergreen (Gaultheria procumbens L.) essential oil (GPEO). The EO was chemically characterized by GC–MS, confirming methyl salicylate as the predominant compound (99.3%).

Radiometric Constraints on the Timing, Tempo, and Effects of Large Igneous Province Emplacement

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 27-82., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
