    Abstract Seven macromolecular polysaccharides (HPP-2S-HPP-8S) were purified from the gonads of sea urchin Hemicentrotus pulcherrimus. They were characterized as α-glucan homologues, sharing the same α-1,4-glucan backbone substituted at C-6 positions by glucose with HPP-1S that occurs as the major polysaccharide in H. pulcherrimus, while with higher degrees of branching, and additionally possessing minor amounts of mannose and ribose. The branching degree and amounts of non-glucose branches showed a generally increasing tendency across HPP-2S - HPP-8S. These polysaccharides exhibited significant macrophage-activating effects by augmenting the secretion of NO, TNF-α and IL-6, which probably involves the activation of NF-κB and MAPKs signaling pathways. Notably, the polysaccharides with a higher degree of branching exhibited markedly enhanced immunomodulatory capacity with a lowest effective concentration of 1.95 μg/mL. This work provides new cases of bioactive α-glucans and reveals their potential application as immunomodulating agents.

    Abstract Thermo-responsive polymers have great potential for industrial applications of bio-separation and purification. However, the poor affinity and low recovery of thermoresponsive copolymers are the main factors limiting their large-scale application. In this paper, a recyclable thermoresponsive affinity copolymer (PNHM-IDA-Ni²⁺) was prepared by immobilizing nickel ions (Ni²⁺) on copolymer PNHM, and PNHM-IDA-Ni²⁺ was applied to the purification of ε-polylysine. The lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of PNHM and PNHM-IDA-Ni²⁺ were 31.0 °C and 34.0 °C, respectively. Additionally, the recoveries of both copolymers were over 95.0%. The main parameters, such as pH were investigated to optimize the adsorption conditions. In addition, the Langmuir and Freundlich adsorption models were used to predict the maximum adsorption capacity of ε-polylysine. The results of the affinity precipitation demonstrated that the maximum adsorption capacity was 42.9 mg/g, and the adsorption was considered to follow the mono-layer model. The thermodynamic parameters (ΔG⁰, ΔH⁰ and ΔS⁰) of the ε-polylysine adsorption indicated that the adsorption was spontaneous and exothermic. The maximum elution recovery (93.5%) was achieved at pH 5.0 with 0.2 M imidazole. The results of tricine-SDS-PAGE and HPLC (Purity: increased from 84% to 99%) showed that the ε-polylysine was well separated from the crude extract by using the affinity copolymer PNHM-IDA-Ni²⁺.

    Abstract The design of earth-abundant and highly efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution and oxygen evolution reactions (HER/OER) is crucial for hydrogen production through overall water splitting. Herein, we report a novel nanostructure consisting of vertically oriented CoP hierarchical nanosheet arrays with in situ-assembled carbon skeletons on a Ti foil electrode. The novel Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-67 (ZIF-67) template-derived hierarchical nanosheet architecture effectively improved electrical conductivity, facilitated electrolyte transport, and increased the exposure of the active sites. The obtained bifunctional hybrid exhibited a low overpotential of 72 mV at 10 mA cm
