    Abstract Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) analysis has become a powerful tool in recent biomarker detection and clinic diagnosis due to its high sensitivity and broad linear range. To improve the analytical performance of ECL biosensors, various advanced nanomaterials have been introduced to regulate the ECL signal such as graphene, gold nanomaterials, and quantum dots. Among these nanomaterials, some plasmonic nanostructures play important roles in the fabrication of ECL biosensors. The plasmon effect for the ECL signal includes ECL quenching by resonant energy transfer, ECL enhancement by surface plasmon resonance enhancement, and a change in the polarized angle of ECL emission. The influence can be regulated by the distance between ECL emitters and plasmonic materials, and the characteristics of polarization angle-dependent surface plasmon coupling. This paper outlines the recent advances of plasmonic based ECL biosensors involving various plasmonic materials including noble metals and semiconductor nanomaterials. The detection targets in these biosensors range from small molecules, proteins, nucleic acids, and cells thanks to the plasmonic effect. In addition to ECL biosensors, ECL microscopy analysis with plasmonic materials is also highlighted because of the enhanced ECL image quality by the plasmonic effect. Finally, the future opportunities and challenges are discussed if more plasmonic effects are introduced into the ECL realm.

    Abstract Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) is produced by chemiluminescence reactions initiated by electrochemical methods. On this basis, ECL microscopy (ECLM) is an emerging visualization tool to directly study local electrochemical features with good spatial and temporal resolution. Recent progress in ECLM demonstrates that it is particularly important in single-cell studies on the morphological structures and functional characteristics of cells due to the unique heterogeneity of cells. Compared with other single-cell imaging methods, ECLM possesses advantages such as a low optical background, high sensitivity, simple instrumentation and surface-confined mode. In this mini-review, we discuss the recent development of single-cell ECLM and classify these works according to different ECL routes. Because ECL routes significantly influence the features of ECLM, such as the thickness of the emitting layer and the brightness of emitters, it is necessary to provide a new insight to revisit these works and discuss what ECL routes can be chosen to study single-cell processes from different perspectives. Considering the gradual growth in single-cell ECLM, we show the developmental trajectory and how these works connect with one another. In addition, the coexisting challenges as well as opportunities inspire us to design more ECLM methods to investigate local electrochemical phenomena.

However, this technique has not yet been applied in visualized imaging analysis of intracellular species due to the insulating nature of the cell membrane.

    Abstract Objectives: Studies have widely explored in the filed of ischemic stroke (IS) with their focus on transcription factors. However, few studies have pivoted on sex determining region Y-box 2 (SOX2) in IS. Thus, this study is launched to figure out the mechanisms of SOX2 in IS.
    Methods: Rat middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was established as a stroke model. MCAO rats were injected with depleted SOX2 or long non-coding RNA plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) to explore their roles in neurological deficits, cerebral water content, neuron survival, apoptosis and oxidative stress. The relationship among SOX2, PVT1, microRNA (miR)-24-3p and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) was verified by a series of experiments.
    Results: SOX2, PVT1 and STAT3 were highly expressed while miR-24-3p was poorly expressed in cerebral cortex tissues of MCAO rats. Depleted SOX2 or PVT1 alleviated brain injury in MCAO rats as reflected by neuronal apoptosis and oxidative stress restriction, brain water content reduction, and neurological deficit and neuron survival improvements. Overexpression of PVT1 functioned oppositely. Restored miR-24-3p abolished PVT1 overexpression-induced brain injury in MCAO rats. SOX2 directly promoted PVT1 expression and further increased STAT3 by sponging miR-24-3p.
    Conclusion: This study presents that depleting SOX2 improves IS via PVT1/miR-24-3p/STAT3 axis which may broaden our knowledge about the mechanisms of SOX2/PVT1/miR-24-3p/STAT3 axis and provide a reference of therapy for IS.

    Abstract Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) has manifested a surface-confined emitting character and a low light background occurring near the electrode surface. However, the luminescence intensity and emitting layer are limited by the slow mass diffusion rate and electrode fouling in a stationary electrolyte. To address this problem, we developed an in situ strategy to flexibly regulate the ECL intensity and layer thickness by introducing an ultrasound (US) probe to the ECL detector and microscope. Herein, we explored the ECL responses and the thickness of ECL layer (TEL) under US irradiation in different ECL routes and systems. ECL microscopy with an ultrasonic probe discovered that ultrasonic radiation enhanced the ECL intensity under the catalytic route, while an opposite trend was observed under the oxidative-reduction route. Simulation results demonstrated that US promoted the direct electrochemical oxidation of TPrA radicals by the electrode rather than oxidant Ru­(bpy)₃ ³⁺, which made the TEL thinner than that in the catalytic route under the same US condition. In situ US boosted the ECL signal from 1.2 times to 4.7 times by improving the mass transport and weakening electrode fouling due to the cavitation role. It significantly enhanced the ECL intensity beyond the diffusion-controlled ECL reaction rate. In addition, a synergistic sonochemical luminescence is validated in the luminol system to enhance the whole luminescence because cavitation bubbles of US promoted the generation of reactive oxygen species. This in situ US strategy provides a new opportunity to understand ECL mechanisms and a new tool in regulating TEL to meet the needs of ECL imaging.

    Abstract Different from lithium-ion batteries, composite carbon rod for high-power electrode was widely used in high-end manufacturing industry due to its good conductivity and low CTE. In this study, semi cokes with different structural characteristics was used as aggregate and coal tar pitch was adopted as binder and impregnant to prepare composite carbon rod for high-power electrode, and the bonding and impregnation behavior was also investigated. It was found that calcination promoted ordered stacking of planar aromatic lamellae of acicular domain texture and aggravated the structural defects of mosaic texture. Coal tar pitch with low aromaticity and high toluene insoluble (TI) as bonded and impregnated pitch possessed higher adhesion but low weight gain ratio after calcination. While higher TI content of coal tar pitch enhanced the weight gain ratio, but the adhesion of composite carbon rod declined. In addition, the carbonaceous sheets derived from coal tar pitch gradually extended and covered the surface of orderly graphited sheets generated from acicular domain texture and contributed to the lowest CTE of 1.43 * 10⁻⁶·℃⁻¹ as well as the lowest specific resistance of 6.03μΩ·m. While the structural defects and voids generated from disordered mosaic texture could not be completely filled, thereby resulting in highest CTE of 2.20 * 10⁻⁶·℃⁻¹ and highest specific resistance of 9.55μΩ·m.
