    Abstract This study aimed to investigate the role and molecular mechanism of heme oxygenase-1 (HMOX1) in chemotherapy resistance in small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). Employed bioinformatics, qPCR, and Western Blot to assess HMOX1 levels in SCLC versus normal tissues and its prognostic relevance. CCK-8, flow cytometry, and thiobarbituric acid assays determined HMOX1's impact on SCLC chemosensitivity, ferroptosis markers, lipid peroxidation, and mic14's role in chemoresistance. In the GSE40275 and GSE60052 cohorts, HMOX1 expression was downregulated in SCLC tissues compared to normal tissues. Higher HMOX1 expression was associated with improved prognosis in the Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Hospital cohort and GSE60052 cohort. The RNA and protein levels of HMOX1 were reduced in drug-resistant SCLC cell lines compared to chemosensitive cell lines. Upregulation of HMOX1 increased chemosensitivity and reduced drug resistance in SCLC, while downregulation of HMOX1 decreased chemosensitivity and increased drug resistance. Upregulation of HMOX1 elevated the expression of ferroptosis-related proteins ACSL4, CD71, Transferrin, Ferritin Heavy Chain, and Ferritin Light Chain, while decreasing the expression of GPX4 and xCT. Conversely, downregulation of HMOX1 decreased the expression of ACSL4, CD71, Transferrin, Ferritin Heavy Chain, and Ferritin Light Chain, while increasing the expression of GPX4 and xCT. Upregulation of HMOX1 promoted cellular lipid peroxidation, whereas downregulation of HMOX1 inhibited cellular lipid peroxidation. Upregulation of HMOX1 reduced the RNA level of mic14, while downregulation of HMOX1 increased the RNA level of mic14. mic14 exhibited inhibitory effects on cellular lipid peroxidation in SCLC cells and contributed to reduced chemosensitivity and increased drug resistance in chemoresistant SCLC cell lines. HMOX1 plays a role in ferroptosis by regulating mic14 expression, thereby reversing chemoresistance in SCLC.

    Abstract We investigate the role of external magnetic fields and linearly polarized pump light, especially when their directions are parallel or vertical, on the propagation of the fractional vector vortex beams (FVVBs) through a polarized atomic system. Herein, the different configurations of external magnetic fields lead to various optically polarized selective transmissions of FVVBs with different fractional topological charge α caused by the polarized atoms, which is theoretically demonstrated by the atomic density matrix visualization analysis and experimentally explored by Cesium atom vapor. Meanwhile, we find that the FVVBs-atom interaction is a vectorial process due to the different optical vector polarized states. In this interaction process, the atomic optically polarized selection property provides potential for the realization of the magnetic compass based on warm atoms. For the FVVBs, due to the rotational asymmetry of the intensity distribution, we can observe some transmitted light spots with unequal energy. Compared with the integer vector vortex beam, it is possible to obtain a more precise magnetic field direction by fitting the different "petal" spots of the FVVBs.

    Abstract Genetically engineered Salmonella typhimurium can specifically colonize tumor tissues and drastically inhibit tumor growth. Vibrio vulnificus flagellin B (FlaB), a natural ligand of Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) that can activate robust host immune system, is an excellent adjuvant for cancer immunotherapy with high binding affinity to TLR5. Here, we constructed attenuated S. typhimurium that expresses flagellin B (FlaB) with a controlled expression system to enhance targeted cancer immunotherapy with increased good safety profiles. Visualized therapy can also be achieved with bioluminescence imaging by introducing the lux operon into the attenuated Salmonella.

    Abstract Objectives: To investigate the effect of liraglutide on osteogenesis in human alveolar bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and the influence of liraglutide on implant-bone integration in rats with T2DM.
    Subjects and methods: Extracting BMSCs from the alveoli of diabetic patients treated with insulin. BMSCs were treated with different concentrations of liraglutide. Osteogenesis and the underlying mechanism were investigated via ALP detection, ALP staining, Alizarin Red S staining, Western blotting, and RT-PCR. Liraglutide was given to Wistar and GK rats after implantation, and new bone formation around the implants was analyzed via micro-CT. Implant-bone integration in rats was investigated via toluidine blue staining.
    Results: Liraglutide enhanced osteogenesis in BMSCs via the BMP2/Smad/Runx2 signaling pathway. The optimal concentration of liraglutide that promoted osteogenesis was 10
    Conclusions: Liraglutide not only promotes osteogenesis of BMSCs in normoglycemic individuals but also enhances osteogenesis of BMSCs in diabetic patients treated with insulin and enhances osseointegration in rats.

    Abstract Electrocatalytic water splitting driven by renewable electricity has been recognized as a promising approach for green hydrogen production. Different from conventional strategies in developing electrocatalysts for the two half-reactions of water splitting (e.g., the hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions, HER and OER) separately, there has been a growing interest in designing and developing bifunctional electrocatalysts, which are able to catalyze both the HER and OER. In addition, considering the high overpotentials required for OER while limited value of the produced oxygen, there is another rapidly growing interest in exploring alternative oxidation reactions to replace OER for hybrid water splitting toward energy-efficient hydrogen generation. This Review begins with an introduction on the fundamental aspects of water splitting, followed by a thorough discussion on various physicochemical characterization techniques that are frequently employed in probing the active sites, with an emphasis on the reconstruction of bifunctional electrocatalysts during redox electrolysis. The design, synthesis, and performance of diverse bifunctional electrocatalysts based on noble metals, nonprecious metals, and metal-free nanocarbons, for overall water splitting in acidic and alkaline electrolytes, are thoroughly summarized and compared. Next, their application toward hybrid water splitting is also presented, wherein the alternative anodic reactions include sacrificing agents oxidation, pollutants oxidative degradation, and organics oxidative upgrading. Finally, a concise statement on the current challenges and future opportunities of bifunctional electrocatalysts for both overall and hybrid water splitting is presented in the hope of guiding future endeavors in the quest for energy-efficient and sustainable green hydrogen production.

    Abstract Homogeneous organic photocatalysis typically requires molecular photosensitizers absorbing in the ultraviolet-visible (UV/vis) region, because UV/vis photons possess the sufficient energy to excite those one-photon-absorbing photosensitizers to the desired excited states. However, UV/vis light irradiation has many potential limitations, especially for large-scale applications, such as low penetration through reaction media, competing absorption by substrates and co-catalysts, and incompatibility with substrates bearing light-sensitive functionalities. In fact, these drawbacks can be effectively avoided if near infrared (NIR) photons can be utilized to drive the target reactions. Herein, we report two benzothiazole-derived compounds as novel two-photon-absorbing (TPA) organic photosensitizers, which can function under NIR light irradiation using inexpensive LED as the light source. We demonstrate that by judicially modulating the donor-π-acceptor-π-donor-conjugated structure containing a bibenzothiazole core and imine bridges, excellent two-photon absorption capability in the NIR region can be achieved, approaching 2000 GM at 850 nm. Together with large quantum yields (∼0.5), these benzothiazole-derived TPA organic photosensitizers exhibit excellent performance in driving various O

    Abstract Treating wastewater using purple non-sulfur bacteria (PNSB) is an environmentally friendly technique that can simultaneously remove pollutants and lead to the accumulation of high-value cell inclusions. However, no PNSB system for treating heavy oil refinery wastewater (HORW) and recovering high-value cell inclusions has yet been developed. In this study, five batch PNSB systems dominated by Rhodopseudomonas were used to treat real HORW for 186 d. The effects of using different hydraulic retention times (HRT), sludge retention times (SRT), trace element solutions, phosphate loads, and influent loads were investigated, and the bacteriochlorophyll, carotenoid, and coenzyme Q
