The repeat expansion transcript r(G<sub>4</sub>C<sub>2</sub>) induces RNA/peptide accumulation, which, in turn, induces cytotoxicity and accelerates the development of neurodegenerative diseases. Such cytotoxic accumulation is triggered by peptide aggregation. Here, a technique is developed to prevent accumulation by regulating RNA interactions, assuming that RNA structure is important for peptide interactions. A screening method is used to identify compounds that suppress RNA accumulation of r(G<sub>4</sub>C<sub>2</sub>) repeats. The four compounds are identified with wide π-planes containing hydroxyl, methoxy, and cyclic ether groups that suppressed RNA accumulation. Interestingly, these compounds also suppressed RNA/peptide accumulation in neuroblastoma cells, indicating that RNA accumulation is a key regulator of RNA/peptide cytotoxic aggregate formation. In vitro and in silico physicochemical analyses reveal that these compounds bind to the loop region of the G-quadruplex via hydrogen bonds or CH-π interactions, resulting in an altered loop conformation. Importantly, these conformational changes inhibited RNA G-quadruplex associations.

In this work, the superconductivity in bilayer Kagome borophene (BK-borophene) is investigated by first-principles calculations. The results show that BK-borophene is an anisotropic superconductor with strong electron-phonon coupling (EPC) and a high critical temperature (T<sub>c</sub>) ≈17.4-35.0 K predicted by the anisotropic Migdal-Eliashberg equations and McMillan-Allen-Dynes formula. The superconductivity in BK-borophene is attributed to the strong EPC between electrons near the Fermi level and three phonon modes including the A<sub>2u</sub> mode and two E<sub>g</sub> modes. The anisotropic superconductivity is due to the anisotropic EPC between the band related to the Dirac-like cone and the flat band. The electronic structure of BK-borophene has the van Hove singularity (VHS) and higher-order van Hove singularity (HOVHS) near the Fermi level, which can lead to the density of states divergence, charge accumulation, and EPC enhanced.
