Lower Power Leads to Being More Influenced Than Higher Power During a Memory Conformity Task
Authors: Wright Daniel B. , Celic Vuk 
Published: January 2025

ABSTRACTWhen people remember together, what one person says can affect what others report. The size of this effect is dependent on the characteristics of the people and how they express their beliefs. The power relationship among people affects much of their social cognition, including the size of this memory conformity effect. Some research has shown people conform more to high power individuals, but other research shows the opposite. The current research identified what we believe is an important difference in these studies in the type of power that was manipulated: evaluative versus managerial power. We manipulated both of these types of power. For both of these types, the low power individual was more influenced than the high power person. The study was designed to be like how people learn new vocabulary in an educational context. More research should take into account that people learn from other people in educational settings.

Published: January 2025

AbstractNegatively charged drug molecules can be efficiently assembled and controlled on the positively charged micro‐nanoparticle (MNP) surfaces by utilizing the principle of electrostatic attraction. However, designing a system that the positively charged protein factors are efficiently assembled onto the positively charged carriers through leveraging homophilic interactions remains a formidable challenge. In solvents, the interplay between the electrostatic repulsion and the van der Waals attraction among the colloidal MNPs leads to the phenomenon of homophilic attraction described in the Derjaguin–Landau–Verwey–Overbeek (DLVO) theory. Is there a colloidal system that can be designed to enable the assembly of positively charged protein factors with the positively charged MNPs? Here, a novel photosensitive positive‐positive assembly of drugs is used as carrier, which is named as InGa3@polyvinylpyrrolidone (InGa3@PVP). Under the light excitation with the wavelength of 365 nm, this system exhibits homophilic attraction, enabling efficient assembly of the positively charged entities. This discovery offers a refined theoretical model for the drug delivery applications, facilitating the enhanced control and optimization of the positive‐positive assembly.

AbstractThe ability to measure changes in neural activities using devices implanted in the brain can be useful for recording brain signals to assess specific risk factors, monitor the development of brain diseases, and expand the understanding of neural circuitry. Here, a neuroimplantable interface is introduced that integrates biomaterials with an advanced structural design to facilitate monitoring of electrophysiological responses in widespread brain regions. The neural interface uses biocompatible and photopatternable materials to create ultrathin, homogeneous encapsulant/substrate laminates. Comprehensive in vitro tests of the laminin‐enveloped neural interface demonstrate efficacy in relieving inflammation via a biomimetic strategy by diminishing microglia and astrocyte aggregation near recording sites, enhancing periodic signal acquisition. The performance is evaluated by injecting an acetylcholine receptor agonist into mouse brains. This approach enables to monitor real‐time signal changes, gain insights into neural network dynamics by assessing stimulus‐evoked signaling at specific sites, and identify signaling patterns and hippocampal synaptic connections. Additionally, in a Parkinson's disease mouse model, deep brain stimulation is performed and signals are recorded to confirm symptom amelioration, offering a biomedical device approach. The key strategy highlights intact neural electrodes with biocompatible, mechanically compliant materials conferring compact bioelectronic functionalities, high neuronal microenvironment compatibility, and pathological neural system recognition.

Published: January 2025

AbstractAqueous Zn‐ion batteries are promising for large‐scale energy storage due to low cost and high safety. However, aqueous electrolyte induces severe side reactions at Zn anode, especially hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Herein, it is first revealed that the freshly nucleated‐Zn (FN‐Zn) atoms during plating process show higher reactivity and stronger adsorption of proton than metallic Zn anode by X‐ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) and corresponding extended X‐ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS), and density functional theory simulations, promoting the decomposition of H2O. Then, a universal and effective capping effect strategy is proposed to alleviate HER by electrostatically shielding FN‐Zn activity. Specifically, sodium benzenesulfonate (SBS) is selected as a typical example by screening and comparing a series of electrolyte additives, in which sulfonate group with high coordination energy can be preferentially capped on FN‐Zn to reduce its reactivity. Consequently, the symmetrical cell with SBS not only generates negligible amounts of H2 by in situ electrochemical‐gas chromatography but also can be up to 2550 h at 1 mA cm−2. More importantly, the capping effect on HER‐free Zn anode is verified by coin full cells exhibiting capacity retention of≈87.1% after 1000 cycles and large‐area (4 × 6 cm2) pouch cells with desired performance.

AbstractThe malignant interaction between tumor cells and immune cells is one of the important reasons for the rapid progression and refractoriness of glioblastoma (GBM). As an essential metabolic center of M2 macrophages, the inhibition of protein kinase RNA‐like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) leads to the reduction of M2 macrophages. Nevertheless, the restriction of the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) and non‐specific cell targeting hinder the application of PERK inhibitors in GBM. Herein, the optimal NP‐M‐M2pep is developed successfully, which has shown the capacity of BBB penetration and specific targeting of M2 microglia. In addition to inhibiting the polarization of M2 microglia, the administration of iPERK@NP‐M‐M2pep reprogrammed M2 microglia into M1 ones in vitro via PERK/HIF‐1α/glycolysis pathway. Efficient brain accumulation of nanoparticles is achieved after tail vein injection, with effective inhibition of GBM progression after one course of treatment. The glioma‐associated microglia and macrophages (GAM) with M2 type are induced to M1 and the immunosuppressive TME is remodeled by upregulating immunostimulatory cells and downregulating immunosuppressive cells. In summary, the biomimetic membrane vesicles (BMVs) specifically delivered iPERK to GAMs offer an inspiring strategy to reprogram microglia polarization, re‐educate immunosuppressive TME, and inhibit the progression of GBM.

Published: January 2025

AbstractLimited by the activity‐selectivity trade‐off relationship, the electrochemical activation of small molecules (like O2, N2, and CO2) rapidly diminishes Faradaic efficiencies with elevated current densities (particularly at ampere levels). Nevertheless, some catalysts can circumvent this restriction in a two‐electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e− ORR), a sustainable pathway for activating O2 to hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). Here we report 2e− ORR expedited in a fluorine‐bridged copper metal–organic framework catalyst, arising from the water spillover effect. Through operando spectroscopies, kinetic and theoretical characterizations, it demonstrates that under neutral conditions, water spillover plays a dual role in accelerating water dissociation and stabilizing the key *OOH intermediate. Benefiting from water spillover, the catalyst can expedite 2e− ORR in the current density range of 0.1–2.0 A cm−2 with both high Faradaic efficiencies (99–84.9%) and H2O2 yield rates (63.17–1082.26 mg h−1 cm−2). Further, the feasibility of the present system has been demonstrated by scaling up to a unit module cell of 25 cm2, in combination with techno‐economics simulations showing H2O2 production cost strongly dependent on current densities, giving the lowest H2O2 price of $0.50 kg−1 at 2.0 A cm−2. This work is expected to provide an additional dimension to leverage systems independent oftraditional rules.

Published: January 2025

AbstractThe article explores materials sustainability through a bio‐inspired lens and discusses paradigms that can reshape the understanding of material synthesis, processing, and usage. It addresses various technological fields, from structural engineering to healthcare, and emphasizes natural material cycles as a blueprint for efficient recycling and reuse. The study shows that material functionality depends on both chemical composition and structural modifications, which emphasizes the role of material processing. The article identifies strategies such as mono‐materiality and multifunctionality, and explores how responsivity, adaptivity, modularity, and cellularity can simplify material assembly and disassembly. Bioinspired strategies for reusing materials, defect tolerance, maintenance, remodeling, and healing may extend product lifespans. The principles of circularity, longevity, and parsimony are reconsidered in the context of “active materiality”, a dynamic bio‐inspired paradigm. This concept expands the traditional focus of material science from structure‐function relationships to include the development of materials capable of responding or adapting to external stimuli. Concrete examples demonstrate how bio‐inspired strategies are being applied in engineering and technology to enhance the sustainability of materials. The article concludes by emphasizing interdisciplinary collaboration as a key factor for developing a sustainable and resilient materials economy in harmony with nature's material cycles.

Published: January 2025

AbstractFormamidinium lead triiodide (FAPbI3) perovskite quantum dot (PQD) are promising candidate for high‐performing quantum dot photovoltaic due to its narrow bandgap, high ambient stability, and long carrier lifetime. However, the carrier transport blockage and nonradiative recombination loss, originating from the high‐dielectric ligands and defects/trap states on the FAPbI3 PQD surface, significantly limit the efficiency and stability of its photovoltaic performance. In this work, through exploring dual‐site molecular ligands, namely 2‐thiophenemethylammonium iodide (2‐TM) and 2‐thiopheneethylammonium iodide (2‐TE), a dual‐phase synergistic ligand exchange (DSLE) protocol consisting of both solution‐phase and solid‐state ligand engineering is demonstrated. The DSLE strategy effectively replaces the native long insulating ligands and simultaneously passivate surface defects in hybrid FAPbI3 PQDs, leading to enhanced electronic coupling for efficient charge transport. Consequently, the FAPbI3 PQD solar cell based on DSLE strategy achieves a notable enhanced efficiency from 15.43% to 17.79% (2‐TM) and 18.21% (2‐TE), respectively. Besides, both 2‐TM and 2‐TE engineered devices exhibit enhanced stability, maintaining over 80% of its initial efficiency after aging in ambient environment (20–30% humidity, 25 °C) for over 1400 h. It believes these findings will provide a new protocol to precisely regulate the surface chemistry of hybrid PQDs toward high‐performance optoelectronic applications.

AbstractThe extracellular matrix (ECM) serves not only as a structural scaffold but also as an active regulator of cancer progression, profoundly influencing tumor behaviour and the tumor microenvironment (TME). This review focuses into the pivotal role of ECM alterations in facilitating tumor metastasis and explores therapeutic strategies aimed at counteracting these changes. We analyse targeted interventions against collagen, including approaches to inhibit its biosynthesis and disrupt associated signalling pathways critical for tumor architecture and cell migration. Additionally, therapies addressing hyaluronan are reviewed, highlighting methods to suppress its synthesis and enzymatic strategies to degrade it, thereby mitigating its tumor‐promoting effects. The discussion extends to innovative approaches for modulating ECM stiffness, focusing on the roles of cancer‐associated fibroblasts and lysyl oxidases, which are key contributors to ECM remodelling and mechanical signalling. By strategically modifying these ECM components, these interventions aim to enhance the efficacy of existing cancer treatments, tackle resistance mechanisms, and achieve more durable therapeutic outcomes. Insights from recent studies and clinical trials highlight the promise of these strategies in overcoming treatment resistance and improving patient outcomes. Advancing our understanding of ECM biology leads to the development of innovative and more effective cancer therapies.

AbstractThe efficiency of organic solar cells has raised drastically in the past years. However, there is an undeniable lack of hole transport layers that can provide high carrier selectivity, low defect density, and high processing robustness, simultaneously. In this work, this issue is addressed by studying defect generation and surface passivation of nickel oxide (NiOx). It is revealed that the generation of high oxidation state species on NiOx surface lowers contact resistance but hinders charge extraction when employed as transport layer in organic solar cells. By using them as coordination centers, a straightforward surface modification strategy is implemented using (2‐(9H‐carbazol‐9‐yl)ethyl)phosphonic acid (2PACz) that enhances charge extraction and increases the solar cell efficiency from 11.46% to 17.12%. Additionally, the robustness of this modification across different deposition methods of the carbazole molecule is demonstrated. Finally, by fine‐tuning the Fermi level using various carbazole‐based molecules, and in particular with ((4‐(7H‐dibenzo[c,g]carbazol‐7‐yl)butyl)phosphonic acid (4PADCB), a power conversion efficiency of 17.29% is achieved, with an outstanding combination of a VOC of 0.888 V and a fill factor of 80%.

AbstractAccurate quantification of the aging mechanisms of batteries at accelerated aging conditions is of great significance for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). Here the aging and rollover failure mechanisms of LiFePO4 (LFP)/graphite batteries at different temperatures are investigated using a combination of advanced techniques such as electrolyte quantification methods, mass spectrometry titration (MST), time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS), and Raman imaging. The growth, rapture, and repair process of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is the primary mechanism leading to battery aging, and its contribution increases with temperature. High temperature exacerbates electrolyte decomposition (especially lithium salts), together with organic SEI decomposing into the more stable inorganic SEI at high temperature, resulting in a thicker SEI rich with inorganic compositions. High temperatures also lead to spatially inhomogeneous side reactions, which may in turn accelerate further degradation of the battery. The sharp battery capacity decline, namely the rollover failure, is primarily due to the depletion of additive VC, which shifts electrolyte degradation from additive VC to solvents and lithium salts, rather than by the increase of internal resistance, lithium plating, electrolyte drying out, electrode saturation, or mechanical deformation.

ABSTRACTBackgroundAdherence to 24‐h movement guidelines has been associated with early health benefits, including neurodevelopmental outcomes. However, the associations between these guidelines and Cognitive (CSR) and Behavioral (BSR) self‐regulation in preschoolers are underexplored. This study investigated the associations between adherence to 24‐h movement guidelines and CSR and BSR in Brazilian preschoolers.MethodsA total of 223 preschoolers (4.76 ± 0.32 years old; 50.67% boys) participated. Physical activity (PA) was assessed with Actigraph wGT3X. Parents reported children's sleep and screen time. CSR was evaluated through iPad games, and BSR was assessed using the Head, Toes, Knees, Shoulders test revised.ResultsBoys showed higher adherence to the PA recommendation than girls (52.2% vs. 32.7%, χ2 = 0.003), whereas a higher percentage of girls did not adhere to any recommendations (23.6% vs. 12.4%, χ2 = 0.029). Positive association was found between adherence to combined PA and screen time with cognitive flexibility (β = 4.091 [95% CI: 0.699, 7.754]). Adherence to PA was associated with lower BSR scores (β = −7.104 [−13.52, −0.623]), as was adherence to combined PA and sleep duration (β = −8.813 [−15.794, −1.397]).ConclusionThis study highlighted differences in adherence to movement behavior guidelines between boys and girls, as well as demonstrated that different combinations of these behaviors can affect preschoolers' cognitive and behavioral levels of self‐regulation in distinct ways.

AbstractADP‐ribosylation is a complex post‐translational modification involved in key physiological processes and associated with various health and disease states. The growing interest in ADP‐ribosylation necessitates straightforward and efficient synthetic methods for the preparation of ADP‐ribosylated peptides/proteins. In this study, we report a facile reaction between nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) and alcohols promoted by a combination of ionic liquids, yielding up to 94 % with α : β ratios ranging from 88 : 12 to 99 : 1 and a switchable configuration selectivity. This method significantly simplifies the production of ADP‐ribosylated peptides and proteins, enabling diverse applications. It allows detailed investigation of side‐chain structure–activity relationships, facilitates two‐step clickable conjugation of ADP‐ribosyl groups to proteins, and, for the first time, enables non‐enzymatic synthesis of well‐defined ADP‐ribosylated peptides/proteins from natural counterparts and NAD+.

AbstractAnodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) exhibits a sluggish four‐electron transfer process, necessitating catalysts with exceptional catalytic activity to enhance its kinetic rate. Van der Waals layered oxides are ideal materials for catalyst design, yet its stability for acidic OER remains large obstacle. Doping provides a crucial way to improve the activity and stability simultaneously. However, doping in Van der Waals layered oxides remains a great challenge since it easily leads to lattice distortion or even the crystal structure damage. In this work, we successfully doping acid‐resistant niobium (Nb) into Van der Waals layered edge‐shared 1T phase iridium oxide (1 T‐IrO2) via alkali‐assisted thermal method. 1 T‐IrO2 with a 5 % Nb doping (Nb0.05Ir0.95O2) only required an overpotential of 191 mV to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm−2 in 0.5 M H2SO4, 56 mV lower than that of 1T‐IrO2. When applied in proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer, Nb0.05Ir0.95O2 show stable operation at a high current density of 1.2 A cm−2 for over 50 days. Density functional theory calculation reveals that doping Nb changes the potential‐determining step from the *OOH deprotonation process in 1 T‐IrO2 to the *O−OH coupling process in Nb0.05Ir0.95O2.

AbstractPalladium(II)‐catalyzed C−H functionalization has attracted considerable attention as a pathway to late‐stage modification of peptides. Herein, we report the Pd‐catalyzed C(sp3)−H arylation of peptides directed by an amidoxime ether, which can be easily incorporated into peptides at any amide bond. Site‐ and stereoselective arylation of peptides has been achieved, including unprecedented functionalization of internal residues of native peptides. Removal of the amidoxime ether was achieved to generate the parent amide and facilitate a traceless C−H functionalization process.
