Embryonic and post-embryonic responses to high-elevation hypoxia in a low-elevation lizard

Low-elevation species can migrate toward higher elevations to survive in a warming world. However, animals'responses to hypoxia when migrating to high elevations have rarely been addressed. To identify the response of lowelevation lizards to high-elevation hypoxia, we collected field body temperatures(T_(fb)) and operative temperatures(T_e) of lizards(Eremias argus) from a low-elevation population(1036 m) and a high-elevation population(2036 m),and then determined adult thermal physiology, embryonic development, and hatchling phenotypes after acclimating low-elevation lizards and incubating their eggs in conditions mimicking the low-elevation oxygen condition(18.5% O_2) and high-elevation oxygen(hypoxic) condition(16.5% O_2). Our study revealed that T_(fb) and T_e were higher for the low-elevation population compared to the high-elevation population. We also found adults from low elevation acclimated to hypoxia preferred lower body temperatures, but did not show changes in locomotor performance or growth. In addition, hypoxia did not affect embryonic development(hatching time and success) or hatchling phenotypes(body size and locomotor performance). These results suggest that adult lizards from low elevations can respond to hypoxia-induced stress when migrating to high elevations by behaviorally thermoregulating to lower body temperatures in order to sustain normal functions. Similarly, low-elevation embryos can develop normally(with unchanged hatching success and offspring phenotypes) under the high-elevation hypoxic condition. This study highlights that low-elevation populations of a species that inhabits a range of elevations can buffer the impact of high-elevation hypoxic conditions to some degree and thus attain similar fitness to the source population.
Early Intervention of Tongxinluo (通心络) on Right Ventricular Function Assessed by Echocardiography in Rats with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Induced by Monocrotaline

Objective:To investigate the effect of early intervention of Tongxinluo (通心络,TXL) on right ventricular function (RVF) of rats with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) induced by monocrotaline (MCT).Methods:A total of 30 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to 5 groups with complete random experiment design:Sham group (Sham),MCT group,TXL group,sildenafil (SIL) group and combination group (TXL+SIL),6 rats in each group.Rats were injected with 50 mg/kg MCT solution for inducing PAH model except for those in the sham group.From the day of modeling,rats of TXL,SIL and TXL+SIL groups were given TXL (1.2 g/kg),SIL (10 mg/kg) and combination solution (TXL:1.2 g/kg,SIL:10 mg/kg) respectively,and rats in Sham and MCT groups were given normal saline (5 mL/kg).The samples were collected and tested after 21 consecutive days of intragastric administration.Echocardiography was used to measure the related indices of RVF,including pulmonary arterial flow spectrum,pulmonary artery diameter (PAD),right ventricular wall thickness (RVWT),right ventricular diameter (RVD),tricuspidannular plane systolic excursion (TAPSE),right atrium transverse diameter (RAT),and inferior vena cava diameter (IVCD).Elastic Verhoeff-Van Gieson staining was adopted to measure the percentage of wall thickness (WT%) of pulmonary arteriols.Hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to measure the cross-sectional area (CSA) of right ventricular cardiomyocytes.Results:MCT-induced PAH rat model was successfully established.In MCT group the wall of pulmonary arterioles exhibited a prominent-increase thickness,PAD,RVWT,RVD,RAT,IVCD,WT%,right ventricular hypertrophy index (RVHI) as well as CSA of RV cardiomyocyte significantly increased (all P<0.01),and TAPSE markedly decreased (P<0.01).At the same time,TXL prominently improved all of the above indices (all P<0.01).In comparison with SIL,TXL significantly reduced RVD (P<0.05) and decreased CAS of RV cardiomyocytes (P<0.01),but TAPSE in SIL group was much larger than in TXL group (P<0.01).Moreover,TAPSE in TXL+SIL group was larger than that in TXL group (P<0.01),while the two groups performed equally well in terms of the other indices.Conclusion:Early intervention of TXL could inhibit pulmonary arterioles remodeling,and improve RVF by attenuating right ventricular hypertrophy,and TXL has a stronger effect on inhibiting right ventricular remodeling than SIL.

FeS_2@TiO_2 nanorods as high-performance anode for sodium ion battery

Sodium-ion battery (SIB) is an ideal device that could replace lithium-ion battery (LIB) in grid-scale energy storage system for power because of the low cost and rich reserve of raw material. The key challenge lies in developing electrode materials enabling reversible Na~+ insertion/desertion and fast reaction kinetics. Herein, a core-shell structure, FeS_2 nanoparticles encapsulated in biphase TiO_2 shell (FeS_2@TiO_2), is developed towards the improvement of sodiumstorage. The diphase TiO_2 coating supplies abundant anatase/rutile interface and oxygen vacancies which will enhance the charge transfer, and avoid severe volume variation of FeS_2 caused by the Na~+ insertion. The FeS_2 core will deliver high theoretical capacity through its conversion reaction mechanism. Consequently, the FeS_2@TiO_2 nanorods display notable performance as anode for SIBs including long-term cycling performance (637.8mA·h·g~(–1) at 0.2 A·g~(–1) after 300 cycles, 374.9mA·h·g~(–1) at 5.0 A·g~(–1) after 600 cycles) and outstanding rate capability (222.2mA·h·g~(–1) at 10 A·g~(–1)). Furthermore, the synthesized FeS_2@TiO_2 demonstrates significant pseudocapacitive behavior which accounts for 90.7 %of the Na+ storage, and efficiently boosts the rate capability. This work provides a new pathway to fabricate anode material with an optimized structure and crystal phase for SIBs.
Controlled preparation of P-doped g-C_3N_4 nanosheets for efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production

Hydrogen production by photolysis of water by sunlight is an environmentally-friendly preparation technology for renewable energy. Graphitic carbon nitride (g-C_3N_4), despite with obvious catalytic effect, is still unsatisfactory for hydrogen production. In this work, phosphorus element is incorporated to tune g-C_3N_4's property through calcinating the mixture of g-C_3N_4 and NaH_2PO_2, sacrificial agent and co-catalyst also been supplied to help efficient photocatalytic hydrogen production. Phosphorus (P) doped g-C_3N_4 samples (PCN-S) were prepared, and their catalytic properties were studied. X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultraviolet diffuse reflection (UV-DRS) were used to study their structures and morphologies. The results show that the reaction rate of PCN-S is 318 μmol·h~(–1)·g~(–1), which is 2.98 times as high as pure carbon nitride nanosheets (CN) can do. Our study paves a new avenue, which is simple, environment-friendly and sustainable, to synthesize highly efficient P doping g-C_3N_4 nanosheets for solar energy conversion.

广泛期小细胞肺癌化学联合治疗研究进展

肺癌居恶性肿瘤发病率及致死原因首位[1]。小细胞肺癌(small cell lung cancer,SCLC)约占新诊断肺癌的15%[2]。因其倍增时间短、恶性程度高、具有较强的侵袭转移能力,约53%的SCLC患者在确诊时已为病变范围超过同侧半胸的广泛期(extensive stage, ES) [3]。在既往30余年中,以依托泊苷/伊立替康联合铂类为代表的单纯化疗在ES-SCLC的一线治疗中占据主导地位[4],但是仅能获得中位生存期(median survival time,MST) 9 ~ 11个月,2年总生存率低于5%[5]。近年来,免疫检查点抑制剂相关研究(IMPOWER133、CHECKMATE032等)为SCLC的治疗带来突破。目前,依托泊苷联合卡铂化疗,同步序贯阿特珠单抗(Atezolizumab)已被美国国立综合癌症网络(National Comprehensive Cancer Network,NCCN)指南列为一线治疗推荐方案[6]。提示与传统的单纯化疗相比,以化疗为基础的联合治疗有望改善ES-SCLC患者的生存获益。本文对发表于2006年1月—2020年5月关于ES-SCLC化学联合治疗的临床及基础研究进行综述。

Microstructure and cavitation erosion behavior of sputtered NiCrAlTi coatings with and without N incorporations

The NiCrAlTi coatings free of N and with N incorporations were deposited on austenitic stainless steel 304L by magnetron sputtering in Ar and in gas mixture of Ar and N2, respectively. The N incorporated in the coatings existed as nitride precipitates (from ∼3 vol. %to ∼17 vol.%) after vacuum annealing. All the NiCrAlTi coatings, whatever free of N or with N incorporations, exhibited better resistance against cavitation erosion than ion plating TiN coating and the substrate 304 L in ultrasonic cavitation tests. The NiCrAlTi coating free of N incorporation presents superior cavitation erosion resistance. However, the nitrogen incorporation within the NiCrAlTi coatings showed negative effects on the resistance against cavitation erosion.
Selective growth of tin whiskers from its alloys on Ti_2SnC

The spontaneous growth of metal whiskers has been investigated for more than 70 years. However, there is still no agreement on its growth mechanism, and moreover, new characteristics of this whiskering phenomenon continue to emerge. In this study, Ti_2SnC is found to be capable of extracting Sn out of its alloys (SnBi, SnAg) by selectively growing Sn whiskers, and the Sn whiskers share the features of the traditional whiskers on platings and solders. Replacing the Ti_2SnC substrate with TiC or SiC, under the same conditions, however, the selective growth of Sn whisker does not happen, which means Ti_2SnC plays a critical role in it. Based on the unique crystal structure of Ti_2SnC, active Sn atoms diffusing through the basal planes of Ti_2SnC is proposed to explain the selectivity. The driving force is suggested to be the high interfacial energy between Ti_2SnC and tin. This study is of importance to further understand the growth mechanism of metallic whiskers, and it may be also possible to be harnessed to develop paradigm-shifting technologies of metal purification and metallic whisker/nanowire preparation.
On the localised corrosion of carbon steel induced by the in-situ local damage of porous corrosion products

The effect of in-situ local damage of uniform porous corrosion products on the localised corrosion of carbon steel is investigated using the wire beam electrode technique (WBE) combined with morphology characterisation and electrochemical tests. The WBE measurements demonstrate that the localised corrosion is enhanced by the in-situ local removal of porous corrosion products, supported by the morphology characterisation and electrochemical tests. The enhanced localised corrosion does not originate from the damaged wire in WBE where the corrosion products are removed but from the other undamaged wires, which is reported for the first time. A mechanism is proposed that the intensive anodic polarisation effect of the damaged wire on the undamaged wires could account for the enhanced localised corrosion, which is due to the protective corrosion products newly formed on the damaged surface and the increase in the potential of damaged wire.
Amino-functionalized Ti_3C_2T_x with anti-corrosive/wear function for waterborne epoxy coating

Two-dimensional Ti_3C_2T_x flakes have great application potential in various areas due to their optical, electronic, electrochemical and mechanical properties, but their anti-corrosion and wear-resistance performance were not well understood. The difficulties in achieving good dispersity and interface interaction of inorganic additives in organic coatings hinder the incorporation of Ti_3C_2T_x into the epoxy coating. Here, few-layered Ti_3C_2T_x sheets with amino-functionalization were prepared, and as reinforced-additives were added into the waterborne epoxy coating. Anti-corrosion and tribological properties of as-prepared composite coatings were investigated in detail. The results reveal that the composite coating with 0.5 wt. %amino-functionalized Ti_3C_2T_x sheets shows excellent corrosion protection (the lowest frequency impedance was 3.12× 10~9 Ω cm~2) and wear resistance (wear rate was reduced by 72.74%). The greatly improving performance of composite coatings mainly depends on: (a) good dispersity and compatibility of amino-functionalized Ti_3C_2T_x in organic matrix, (b) high adhesion strength between coating and metal substrate and (c) the intrinsic properties of Ti_3C_2T_x sheets. The work provides a good path for applications of MXene as multifunctional additives.
Microstructure evolution and deformation mechanism of amorphous/crystalline high-entropy-alloy composites

High-entropy amorphous alloys present high hardness, but low tensile ductility. Here, deformation behavior of the amorphous/crystalline FeCoCrNi high-entropy alloy (HEA) composite prepared by the previous experiment is investigated using atomic simulations. The result shows the partial dislocations in the crystal HEA layer, and the formation of shear bands in the amorphous HEA layer occurs after yielding. The strength of the amorphous/crystalline HEA composite reduces with increasing the thickness of the amorphous layer, agreeing with the previous experiments. The coupled interaction between the crystal plasticity and amorphous plasticity in amorphous/crystalline HEA composites results in a more homogeneous redistribution of plastic deformation to cause interface hardening, due to the complex stress field in the amorphous layer. The current findings provide the insight into the deformation behavior of the amorphous/crystalline HEA composite at the nanoscale, which are useful for optimizing the structure of the HEA composite with high strength and good plasticity.
Dual band metamaterial absorber: Combination of plasmon and Mie resonances

A dual band metamaterial absorber composed of dielectric and metallic atoms with high symmetry was numerically designed and experimentally verified. Due to simultaneously generated electric and magnetic resonances of both plasmon and Mie resonators, two absorption peaks with near unity absorptivity were obtained at 9.45 and 9.80 GHz. The loss of the electromagnetic wave at the first resonance frequency was mainly caused by ohmic loss based on plasmon resonance. For the second absorption peak resonance frequency, the incident wave was trapped inside the dielectric cube and the main loss of the electromagnetic wave was caused by dielectric loss based on Mie resonance. Most of the proposed dual band metamaterial absorbers were sensitive to the polarization direction hindering its potential applications in scientific and technological areas. Combing both plasmon and Mie resonances provides a new and simple way to build dual band isotropic metamaterial perfect absorbers eliminating polarization effect.
Thermal Shock-Activated Spontaneous Growing of Nanosheets for Overall Water Splitting

Nanomaterials based on nickel foam (NF) have been widely applied in energy conversion and storage field. Traditional synthesis methods such as hydrothermal method which is dangerous and high cost limited the scalable developments. Herein, we report a fast, simple, and low-cost synthesis method of nanomaterials based on NF by Joule-heating and water soaking treatment. Thin carbon-coated CoS on NF (NF-C/CoS) was synthesized by Joule-heating for a few seconds with rapid cooling. And then, NF-C/CoS/NiOOH with core-shell heterostructure was fabricated by soaking treatment of NF-C/CoS in water on which NiOOH nanosheets grew spontaneously. The formation mechanism is proposed that the coordination complex precursor converts into C/CoS on NF driven by Joule-heating, and the nickel on the surface of NF is activated to form metastable nickel simultaneously. The metastable nickel reacting with water leads to the formation of NiOOH, and the induction of CoS makes NiOOH grow continuously. This synthesis technology provides a new route to manufacture NF-based nanostructures, and the as-fabricated NF-C/CoS/NiOOH exhibits great potential as electrocatalyst for oxygen evolution reaction and hydrogen evolution reaction.
Hot-Casting Large-Grain Perovskite Film for Efficient Solar Cells: Film Formation and Device Performance

Organic-inorganic metal halide perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have recently been considered as one of the most competitive contenders to commercial silicon solar cells in the photovoltaic field. The deposition process of a perovskite film is one of the most critical factors affecting the quality of the film formation and the photovoltaic performance. A hot-casting technique has been widely implemented to deposit high-quality perovskite films with large grain size, uniform thickness, and preferred crystalline orientation. In this review, we first review the classical nucleation and crystal growth theory and discuss those factors affecting the hot-casted perovskite film formation. Meanwhile, the effects of the deposition parameters such as temperature,thermal annealing, precursor chemistry, and atmosphere on the preparation of high-quality perovskite films and high-efficiency PSC devices are comprehensively discussed. The excellent stability of hot-casted perovskite films and integration with scalable deposition technology are conducive to the commercialization of PSCs. Finally, some open questions and future perspectives on the maturity of this technology toward the upscaling deposition of perovskite film for related optoelectronic devices are presented.
High-Performance Aqueous Zinc-Ion Batteries Realized by MOF Materials

Rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) have been gaining increasing interest for large-scale energy storage applications due to their high safety, good rate capability, and low cost. However, the further development of ZIBs is impeded by two main challenges: Currently reported cathode materials usually suffer from rapid capacity fading or high toxicity, and meanwhile, unstable zinc stripping/plating on Zn anode seriously shortens the cycling life of ZIBs. In this paper, metal-organic framework (MOF) materials are proposed to simultaneously address these issues and realize high-performance ZIBs with Mn(BTC) MOF cathodes and ZIF-8-coated Zn (ZIF-8@ Zn) anodes. Various MOF materials were synthesized, and Mn(BTC) MOF was found to exhibit the best Zn~(2+)-storage ability with a capacity of 112 mAh g~(-1). Zn~(2+) storage mechanism of the Mn(BTC) was carefully studied. Besides, ZIF-8@Zn anodes were prepared by coating ZIF-8 MOF material on Zn foils. Unique porous structure of the ZIF-8 coating guided uniform Zn stripping/plating on the surface of Zn anodes. As a result, the ZIF-8@Zn anodes exhibited stable Zn stripping/plating behaviors, with 8 times longer cycle life than bare Zn foils. Based on the above,high-performance aqueous ZIBs were constructed using the Mn(BTC) cathodes and the ZIF-8@Zn anodes, which displayed an excellent long-cycling stability without obvious capacity fading after 900 charge/discharge cycles. This work provides a new opportunity for high-performance energy storage system.
Ultra-short Term Wind Speed Prediction Using Mathematical Morphology Decomposition and Long Short-term Memory

This paper proposes a new model, which consists of a mathematical morphology (MM) decomposer and two long short term memory (LSTM) networks, to perform ultra-short term wind speed forecast. The MM decomposer is developed in order to improve the forecast accuracy, which separates the wind speed into two parts: a stationary long-term baseline and a nonstationary short-term residue. Afterwards, two LSTM networks are implemented to forecast the baseline and residue, respectively. Besides, this paper makes an integrated forecast that takes into account multiple climate factors, such as temperature and air pressure. The baseline,temperature and air pressure are used as the inputs of baseline network for training and prediction, and the baseline, residue, temperature and air pressure are used as the inputs of residue network for training and prediction. The performance of the proposed model has been validated using data collected from the Australian Meteorological Station, which is compared with least squares-support vector machine (LS-SVM), back-propagation artificial neural network (BPNN), LSTM, MM-LS-SVM, and MM-BPNN. The results demonstrate that the proposed model is more suitable to solve non-stationary time-series forecast, and achieves higher accuracy than the other models under various conditions.
