This investigation aimed to comprehensively elucidate the fundamental properties of this compound, shedding light on its potential applications in diverse fields. The computational findings for the lattice constants presented in this paper not only corroborated existing theoretical values but also furnished a detailed insight into the lattice geometry of TaGe 2 . In-depth analysis of key mechanical properties encompassing the bulk modulus ( B ), shear modulus ( G ), and Young’s modulus ( E ) unveiled the material’s mechanical response to external forces. Significantly, the ratio of B/G emerged as a pivotal parameter, categorizing hexagonal TaGe 2 as a brittle phase. This observation was further reinforced by the discerned Cauchy pressure value, which distinctly pointed toward brittle behavior. The intricate nature of the inter-atomic bonding in TaGe 2 was effectively probed through our calculated values of Poisson’s ratio ( ν ). Remarkably, our results underscored the prevalence of an ionic interplay among atoms within TaGe 2 , particularly within the ambit of applied pressures. To provide a comprehensive perspective on its mechanical resilience, we also predicted the compound’s hardness, unveiling a tangible metric for assessing its suitability in various applications. This comprehensive investigation not only advances our fundamental understanding of transition metal ditetrelides, particularly TaGe 2 , but also bestows vital insights into their potential utilization in fields ranging from materials science to engineering. The intricate interplay of structural stability, mechanical behavior, and thermodynamic response unraveled through our study contributes to a deeper appreciation of the multifaceted properties of this compound and paves the way for its innovative applications.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054362","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The influence of Mn on the strength contribution was investigated by comparing the microstructures of the designed Zn–0.5Mg and Zn–0.5Mg–0.2Mn alloys. The deformed binary Zn–Mg alloy had a grain size of 9 μ m, and the grain size of the deformed ternary Zn–Mg–Mn alloy was 3 m. This result indicated that the extrusion-formed Zn–Mg–Mn alloy had a greater contribution to grain boundary strengthening than the extrusion-formed Zn–Mg alloy. Furthermore, the precipitates in the two alloys show significant differences in size, morphology, density, and variety. Precipitates in the Mn-containing Zn alloy showed a smaller size, higher density, and the ratio of length and diameter. The high elongation rate of the extrusion-formed Zn–Mg–Mn alloy was attributed to the fully fragmented Mg 2 Zn 11 and deformable MnZn 13 phases. In addition to enhancing its mechanical characteristics, the Zn–Mg–Mn alloy, as extruded, exhibits the same corrosion rates, antibacterial properties, and biocompatibility. These results are helpful in expanding the applications of Zn alloys in the orthopaedic field.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054090","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a microstructure-based two-scale model to analyze the deformation behavior of the SiC p /2009Al composite during upsetting. The microstructure-based micro-scale model with a displacement boundary condition that was obtained from a macro-scale model can predict particle cracking, interface failure and matrix fracture by introducing the normal stress criterion, the maximum stress ratio criterion and the shear fracture model. The simulation results show that, during unidirectional upsetting, the crack initiates in the matrix, and then propagates in the matrix, the interface and the particle. Comparing with the unidirectional upsetting, the bidirectional upsetting results in a more uniform stain distribution and a smaller maximum strain, which prevent the initiation of the crack in the matrix. The simulation results compare well with the deformation and fracture patterns observed in experiment, indicating an effective way to optimise the plastic working and designing of composites.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"112 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054094","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By analyzing the therapeutic effects of different treatment modalities, the superiority of the combined approach was examined. The main components of the calf blood protein extract were analyzed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ninety patients with MSDE were included. They were assigned into two groups randomly: the eye drops group (45 patients receiving eye drop treatment) and the joint therapy group (45 patients receiving the combined treatment of CBDE and eye drops). The treatment effects between the two groups were compared. It was revealed that the CBDE had a high content of glucose. The treatment effectiveness was 80.00% in the eye drops group and 95.56% in the joint therapy group. The combined treatment demonstrated a greatly higher effectiveness in MSDE versus the use of eye drops alone ( P <0.05). The joint therapy group showed more pronounced improvements in tear breakup time (BUT), Schirmer I test (SIT), corneal fluorescein test (FL) scores, and symptom scores ( P <0.05). Moreover, the joint therapy group exhibited a more drastic decrease in the corneal surface asymmetry index (SAI) and corneal surface regularity index (SRI) ( P <0.05), as well as a greater reduction in the levels of inflammatory markers ( P <0.05). The dry eye symptom scores were also markedly lower in the joint therapy group ( P <0.05).

FDPS promote post-translational modification of GTPase for the treatment of diseases associated with bone resorption. However, it is not clear whether FDPS plays an information-regulating role through the action of splicing factors. In this study, the cell biology, gene expression profile and alternative splicing pattern of FDPS-overexpressed MC3T3-E1 cells (FDPS-OE) were compared with the control. The results showed that FDPS-OE promoted cell proliferation and inhibited cell apoptosis, and identified the potential target genes and potential functions of FDPS. In addition, FDPS-OE extensively regulated the transcriptional levels of cellular immune response and glycometabolism-related genes, thus affecting the immune function of bone formation and glycometabolism of bone cells. Finally, FDPS extensively regulates the selective splicing of hundreds of genes, and has functions of regulating cell cycle, cell division and positive transcription. The splicing of these genes regulated by FDPS plays an important role in cell proliferation and apoptosis and gene transcription regulation. In conclusion, FDPS can mediate the formation and apoptosis of abnormal osteoblasts through splicing regulation, thus causing the occurrence and development of osteoporosis.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054365","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peri-implantitis is a major factor leading to implant failure. The emergence of antibacterial peptides has provided a novel idea for the study of antibacterial coatings on implant surfaces. The antibacterial peptide GL13K was modified onto the surface of titanium (Ti) by silanization with 3-chloropropyltriethoxysilane, and its physicochemical properties were characterized. After its coculture with Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. g) in vitro , the cell activity was detected, and the antibacterial properties were analyzed. After its coculture with gingival fibroblasts (GFs) in vitro , CCK-8 was adopted to detect cell proliferation and analyze cytotoxicity. After its coculture with gingival epithelial cells (GECs) and GFs in vitro , the adhesion was demonstrated by acridine orange staining and DAPI staining. The smooth Ti implant (S/T), the microgroove Ti implant (E/T), and the GL13K-modified microgroove Ti implant (GL13K/E/T) were implanted into the inferolateral aspect of the femoral condyle of the right posterior limb of healthy New Zealand rabbits. Four weeks after surgery, the levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL) in the bone tissue around the implant were detected by immunohistochemistry. The results revealed that relative to the S/T and E/T materials, the surface roughness and contact angle of the GL13K/E/T material were enhanced, while the metabolic activity and colony count of P. g were decreased. S/T, E/T, and GL13K/E/T materials had no notable effect on the viability of GFs ( P > 0.05). Relative to the S/T material, the numbers of GECs and GFs attached to the surfaces of the E/T and GL13K/E/T materials were drastically increased ( P < 0.05). Furthermore, relative to the S/T group, OPG levels in the peri-implant bone tissues of the E/T and GL13K/E/T groups were increased, while the RANKL level was decreased ( P < 0.05). In contrast to group E/T, OPG in the peri-implant bone tissue of rabbits of the GL13K/E/T group was increased, while the RANKL was decreased ( P < 0.05). In summary, the Ti implant with a microgroove structure modified by the antibacterial peptide GL13K had an ideal antibacterial effect and promoted the adhesion and growth of GECs and GFs. In addition, the antibacterial peptide GL13K-modified Ti implant with a microgroove structure could promote early bone bonding.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To circumvent the local instability (snap-back) which generally requires sophisticated arc-length control, the so-called phase-field regularized Voronoi-based lattice ( PHL ) model is realized using an explicit finite element solver. Furthermore, the constitutive law of quasi-brittle materials is embraced when establishing the PHL model, which is proven length-scale insensitive. We show that the PHL model with an explicit solver is very robust and computationally efficient, provided with proper parameters and parallel computing. Moreover, the necessary fine mesh size in the implicit phase-field method is greatly released in the explicit PHL model, of which accurate results could be obtained with the coarser mesh size. Several experiments are adopted to demonstrate the model, including the size effect and mix-mode bending of concrete specimens. Cracks’ initiation, propagation, and coalescence could be automatically captured without any tracking algorithms. In addition, it is noteworthy that the model could easily be extended to coupled mechanical and transportation problems.","PeriodicalId":21671,"journal":{"name":"Science of Advanced Materials","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135054364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additionally, an SAH model was also established by secondary blood injection into the large occipital pool. Forty New Zealand rabbits were randomly assigned into sham operation group (the injected liquid was 0.9% sodium chloride injection), control (Ctrl) group (the injected liquid was autologous blood and sodium chloride injection in sequence), no-load group (the injected liquid was autologous blood and blank liposomes in sequence), drug-loaded group (the injected liquid was autologous blood and RP-HCl NLP in sequence), and conventional group (the injected liquid was sodium chloride injection and ropivacaine in sequence), with eight rabbits in each group.

The physical and chemical properties of Suf-NPs were analyzed by scanning electron microscope and particle size analyzer. A549 human LUAD cell line was selected. According to different cell treatment methods, A549 cells were randomly divided into control (Con), sufentanil (Suf), blank SLN, and Suf-NPs groups. Con was cultured routinely, and Suf group was treated with 0.02 μ g/mL sufentanil. Suf-NPs group was treated with Suf-NPs, and the concentration was the same as that in the Suf group.
