Use of gypsum residues as a corrective for saline-sodic soil

Pesquisa Agropecuária Tropical, 2014
One of the hugest problems faced by the civil construction sector is the final destination of residues, especially gypsum, which presents recycling restrictions.

The Regulatory Role of Iron Transporter SLC39A13 in Liver Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SLC39A13/ZIP13, a newly discovered intracellular iron transporter, delivers iron to the ER/Golgi to catalyze procollagen hydroxylation during collagen maturation. Here, we systematically characterize the cell type‐specific functions of ZIP13 across distinct hepatic cell populations, and identify hepatic stellate cell‐specific ZIP13 as a promising and ...

EFFECTS OF SILICON AND CALCIUM APPLICATION ON GROWTH, YIELD AND FRUIT QUALITY PARAMETERS OF CUCUMBER ESTABLISHED IN A SODIC SOIL

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2020
Soil salinity is a growing problem that affects crop quality. Cucumber is a vegetable eaten fresh, with great worldwide demand, making its chemical and physical characteristics important. In the present work, the effects of foliar application of silicon (

Targeted H2S Delivery System Attenuates Blood‐Spinal Cord Barrier Disruption after Spinal Cord Injury by Reshaping the Ferritinophagy Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The αvβ3‐mediated SPRC@MPDA‐RGD targets broken endothelial cells and controllably releases SPRC. CSE is then activated to produce endogenous H2S, which inhibits ferritinophagy. In brief, H2S inhibits autophagy by activating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway, thereby suppressing the ferroptosis process mediated by NCOA4, and ultimately promoting the ...

Engineering MnPt Bimetallic Nanozymes for Cascade Enzymatic Therapy and Enhanced Radio‐Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A CD44‐targeted MnPt bimetallic nanozyme (HD@MnO2) integrates multienzyme‐like activity with cGAS–STING activation to boost radio‐immunotherapy. Through cascade biocatalysis, it depletes glutathione, relieves hypoxia, and amplifies ROS, enhancing radiotherapy‐induced DNA damage and immunogenic cell death. The nanozyme promotes dendritic cell maturation

Chitosan and Brassinosteroids Mitigate Ion Imbalance and Enhancing Stolon Production in Strawberry

International Journal of Plant Biology
Excess sodium in soil disrupts ionic balance and limits water uptake, negatively affecting growth and stolon production in strawberry plants. This study assessed the effects of chitosan (CTS), brassinosteroids (BRs), and thidiazuron (TDZ) on stolon ...

Biomimetic Ru‐Mn Nanozyme with Cascade Catalytic Activity Attenuates Secondary Brain Injury in Intracerebral Hemorrhage

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Ru–Mn composite nanozymes are engineered to mimic dual‐enzyme cascade catalysis, enabling efficient ROS clearance and neuroinflammation suppression. In collagenase‐ and autologous blood‐induced ICH mouse models, intranasal and intravenous administration reduced hematoma volume, preserved BBB integrity, and improved neurological recovery.

Polymer‐in‐Cage Strategy for Pore Tuning of High‐Aspect Ratio ZIF Nanoplate: Toward Sub‐Micrometer‐Thick Large Area CO2 Separation Membranes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A “polymer‐in‐cage” strategy transforms a zinc‐acrylate copolymer into an active pore‐modulating agent for ZIF‐8 nanoplates. The polymer actively tunes the MOF's pore structure by anchoring within its windows, while the nanoplates create tortuous pathways.

Synergistic Enhancement of Catalytic Activities in Ligand‐Regulated Carbon Dots‐Ferric Ion Nanozymes via UV‐Enhanced Peroxidase‐Oxidase

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Three CDs‐Fe nanozymes functionalized with tailor‐made ligands (TPP, HEDP, and DTPA) are synthesized via hydrothermal carbonization and coordination chemistry. A ligand‐regulation strategy for CDs‐Fe nanozymes achieves tunable enzyme‐mimicking activities and a powerful synergistic effect between POD and UV‐induced OXD pathways, paving the way for ...

Intracellular Reactive Oxygen Species Generation Induced by High‐Frequency Ultrasound in Thickness Vibration Mode

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cell‐sized high‐frequency ultrasound using a lithium niobate transducer, previously ignored in reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, generated intracellular ROS at frequencies higher than conventionally used. The intracellular generation of ROS by cell‐sized high‐frequency ultrasound revealed in this study is expected to be applied to innovative ...
