CDK4/MERCs/PINK1 Axis Drives PFOA/HFPO‐TA‐Induced Cardiac Senescence via Mitophagy Defect and cGAS‐STING Activation: In Vitro Amelioration by Cycloastragenol

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study demonstrated that PFOA and HFPO‐TA exposure suppressed CDK4, disrupted MERCs and impaired PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy, thereby accelerating cardiac senescence, whereas CAG effectively reversed these pathological changes in vitro. Our findings identify CDK4 as a critical regulator bridging mitophagy defects and cardiac senescence ...

Exposure to Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances and Risk of Psoriasis: A Population-Based Study

Toxics
PFAS are a group of synthetic chemicals that have been reported to be associated with adverse health outcomes. However, the relationship of PFAS exposure with psoriasis risk has not been reported. Utilizing data from the 2003–2018 NHANES, we explored the

Association between urinary per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances and COVID-19 susceptibility

Environment International, 2021
Background and Objective: The growing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the urgency of identifying individuals most at risk of infection. Per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are manufactured fluorinated chemicals widely used in many

Upscaling Sodium‐Ion Battery Cells: From Aqueous Processing to Performance Assessment of Hard Carbon|Prussian White Pouch Cells

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the feasibility of scaling up Prussian White (PW)‐based cathode manufacturing at a pilot scale. Through careful PW dehydration combined with optimized aqueous processing, we report the stepwise development of industrially relevant 1 Ah pouch cells and evaluate their performance under various conditions.

Association between exposure to bisphenols and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and behavioral problems among Chinese preschoolers

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
In order to fill the gap in previous research, we aim to investigate the relationship between single and co-exposure to bisphenols (BPs) and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and behavioral problems among Chinese preschoolers.

The association between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances and biological aging among middle and older age adults: The moderating effect of caffeine

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are pervasive environmental pollutants associated with aging-related diseases and mortality risks, yet their relationship with biological aging remains underexplored. Notably, dietary antioxidants like

Effect of UHMWPE Incorporation on the Tribological Performance of Carbon fiber‐Reinforced PEEK Nanocomposites

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
UHMWPE provides interfacial lubrication, improving tribological performance of PEEK‐based sliding bearing bushings. ABSTRACT Ultra‐high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) was incorporated into a PEEK‐based hybrid material as a lubrication additive to improve the friction and wear performance of the composite due to its superior lubricity ...
