    Abstract Numb is an evolutionarily conserved protein that regulates the differentiation of neuronal progenitor cells through unknown mechanisms. Numb has four alternative splice variants with different lengths of phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) and proline-rich regions (PRR) domains. In this study, we demonstrated that Numb expression was increased in the primary cultures of rat cortical and hippocampal neurons over time in vitro, and Numb antisense inhibited neurite outgrowth. We verified that cells overexpressing short PTB (SPTB) or long PTB (LPTB) domains exhibited differentiation or proliferation, respectively. SPTB-mediated differentiation was related to the PRR domains, as cells expressing SPTB/LPRR had longer dendrites and more branched dendrites than cells expressing SPTB/SPRR. The differentiation of both cell types was completely blocked by the Ca

    Abstract The iron core and heat sink in a mining transformer are susceptible to damage from oil spills or the harsh mine environment; the deterioration of oil products in the underground environment and transformers produce massive amounts of harmful liquid substances, which may lead to unnecessary economic losses in drilling engineering. To overcome this issue, a convenient and economical way to protect transformer components was developed. Herein, we proposed an air spray technology at room temperature for the preparation of antigreasy superamphiphobic coatings, which are suitable for bulk metallic glass transformer cores and ST13 heat sinks. The addition of polypyrrole powder effectively improves the thermal conductivity and specific heat of the coating in the range of 50-70 °C. More importantly, the fabricated coating has excellent repellency to liquids, such as water, ethylene glycerol, hexadecane, and rapeseed oil. Meanwhile, the coating has excellent physical and chemical resistance and outstanding antifouling features, which provide a feasible solution for combating grease pollution and corrosion in the mine environment. Taking multifaceted stability into consideration, this work contributes to enhancing the application of superamphiphobic coatings in the fields of protecting transformer components in the harsh environment or during transformer operation faults.

    Abstract Continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) is an essential insulin replacement therapy in the management of diabetes. However, the longevity of clinical CSII is limited by skin complications, by impaired insulin absorption and by occlusions associated with the subcutaneous insertion of CSII catheters, which require replacement and rotation of the insertion site every few days. Here we show that a biodegradable zwitterionic gel covering the tip end of commercial off-the-shelf CSII catheters fully resolves early skin irritations, extends the longevity of catheters and improves the rate of insulin absorption (also with respect to conventional syringe-based subcutaneous injection) for longer than 6 months in diabetic mice, and by 11 days in diabetic minipigs (from 2 to 13 days, under standard CSII-wearing conditions of insulin pump therapy and in a continuous basal-plus-bolus-infusion setting). The implanted gel displayed anti-inflammatory and anti-foreign-body-reaction properties and promoted the local formation of new blood vessels. The gel is subcutaneously injected before the tip of catheter is inserted into it, and should be generally applicable to CSII catheters and other implantable devices.

    Abstract The performance degradation of oil caused by moisture and water pollution induced by the infiltration of oil can result in huge losses for society. This is especially true of stable emulsified mixtures of oil and water, which are difficult to separate and urgently require a processing method. In this work, a robust Janus membrane prepared by combining simple electrodeposition and spraying processes was used to separate water-in-transformer oil/lubricating oil emulsions and various oil-in-water emulsions. The membrane with outstanding separation efficiency was also endowed high flux to emulsions, even after 10 separation cycles and 100 sand impact tests, indicating that separation ability was retained. Furthermore, the excellent resistance to acidic and alkaline liquids of the superhydrophobic side groups of the membrane increased the possibility of its service in harsh environments. This study's findings reveal great potential regarding the expansion and application of oil-water separation materials.
