Tin dioxide (SnO<sub>2</sub>) shows a notable ability to electrocatalytically convert CO<sub>2</sub> into formate, though its efficiency is significantly limited by its low catalytic activity. Herein, we construct facet-oriented SnO<sub>2</sub> nanoflowers all standing on a three-dimensional nickel hollow fiber that exhibits superior CO<sub>2</sub>-to-formate electrocatalytic performance. A formate selectivity of 94% and stability of 300 h with a current density of 1.3 A cm<sup>-2</sup> at -1.1 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode [RHE]) are attained under ambient conditions. Notably, an extremely high CO<sub>2</sub> single-pass conversion rate of 85% is achieved, outperforming prominent catalysts reported in electrocatalysis. The synergetic combination of the unique nanostructures and their advanced spatial configuration is proposed to be responsible for the facet-oriented SnO<sub>2</sub> with a hierarchical structure, providing fully exposed active sites and facilitating mass and charge transfers. Enhanced mass transfer in the hollow fiber electrode verified by electrochemical measurements and well-retained Sn<sup>4+</sup> species confirmed by <i>in situ</i> spectroscopy synergistically boost the high CO<sub>2</sub> conversion activity. <i>In situ</i> spectroscopy and theoretical calculation results demonstrate that the SnO<sub>2</sub>(101) facet favors ∗OCHO intermediate formation and ∗HCOOH desorption, leading to high formate selectivity. This study provides a straightforward approach to the precise fabrication of composite hollow fiber electrodes, enabling highly efficient electrocatalytic reactions with gas molecules.</p>","PeriodicalId":36121,"journal":{"name":"The Innovation","volume":"6 6","pages":"100844"},"PeriodicalIF":33.2,"publicationDate":"2025-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12169250/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144318191","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We have previously systematically conducted CSC-targeted compound discovery and evaluation studies to inhibit CSC-mediated tumorigenesis and metastasis. Here, we identified ZSH-512, a novel synthetic retinoid that selectively targets retinoic acid receptor (RAR)γ, demonstrating its ability to effectively inhibit CRC-CSCs and patient-derived organoids (PDOs) <i>in vitro</i> and significantly reduce CSC-mediated tumor formation and liver metastasis in mouse models without noticeable toxicity. Mechanistically, integrated analysis of Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) and RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed that ZSH-512 exerted its effect by modulating the RARγ-KDM3A axis to mediate epigenetic reprogramming and broadly suppress stemness-related signaling pathways, including Wnt, Hippo, and Hedgehog. ZSH-512 efficiently inhibited tumorigenesis in CRC-patient-derived tumor xenografts (PDXs) with high KDM3A expression, suggesting KDM3A as a potential predictive biomarker.
