Therefore, MIRI continues to pose a significant obstacle in cardiovascular therapy. Curcumin (Cur), a natural polyphenolic compound with potent antioxidant and antiferroptosis properties, has therapeutic potential but is poorly soluble, unstable, and has low bioavailability. To address these issues, a tetrahedral framework nucleic acid (tFNA) piggybacked Cur (tFNA-Cur) drug delivery system was designed to achieve efficient drug delivery and synergistically amplify the therapeutic effect by utilizing the programmable nanostructures, excellent safety profile, high biocompatibility, and intrinsic antioxidant activity of tFNA. In vitro studies demonstrated that tFNA-Cur could effectively mitigate oxidative stress-induced injury in H9C2 cardiomyocytes by restoring the redox balance and inhibiting ferroptosis. In a rat MIRI model, tFNA-Cur demonstrated significant efficacy, including reduced infarct size, decreased Fe<sup>2+</sup> accumulation, and inhibited MDA production, a marker of lipid peroxidation. At the molecular level, tFNA-Cur enhanced the production of antioxidant proteins (GPX4, HO-1) by modulating the KEAP1-Nrf2 signaling axis, while inhibiting the overproduction of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). This achieved a synergistic multitargeted and effective suppression of cardiomyocyte ferroptosis during the MIRI process. This study emphasizes the value of tFNA-Cur as a promising nanotherapeutic strategy in treating MIRI. It provides new ideas and research directions for combining nucleic acid nanomaterials with natural compounds to treat MIRI.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"58 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144153910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, two-phase transport within the anode porous transport layer (PTL) and catalyst layer (CL) significantly impacts the performance of PEM electrolyzers. In this work, the role of patterned wettability of the PTL is investigated in optimizing the gas distribution in the PTL, PTL/CL interface, and CL for PEM electrolyzers by a three-dimensional, two-phase, dual-scale pore network model. The dual-scale pore network modeling (PNM) approach analyzes the gas invasion process in the PTL, with a view to examining the impact of wettability on two-phase transport. Initially, gas invades larger pores at the PTL/CL interface, resulting in a rapid increase in the gas-phase saturation. As the invasion process continues, the rate of increase in the gas-phase saturation declines. By adjusting the width and ratio of hydrophobic regions in the PTL, gas-phase saturation can be effectively reduced. Notably, implementing patterned wettability with a hydrophilic/hydrophobic ratio of 3:1 and a width of 25 μm enhances water transport, reducing gas-phase saturation to 18%, which is over 14% lower than that observed for the PTL with original wettability.","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"106 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144153912","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, we report a metal–organic decomposition strategy to additively manufacture hybrid electronic materials that remain stable at 1100 °C for over 37 h and more than 80 h in strong acid and base solutions, demonstrating oxidation and corrosion resistance. The gold materials, derived from partial in-solution reduction and thermal decomposition of the precursor, exhibit a high conductivity of 10.8 MS/m at 1000 °C, while the molecular decomposed alumina shows a phase transformation from the γ-phase to the stable α-phase below 1000 °C. Synchrotron-based in situ wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) was employed to analyze its crystal structure and high-temperature stability mechanistically.

However, achieving satisfactory therapeutic outcomes with nanozymes remains challenging due to the inherent complexity of the tumor microenvironment (TME). In this context, we designed a two-dimensional layered double hydroxide (LDH) nanozyme loaded with Au nanoparticles, while incorporating bioactive Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Fe<sup>3+</sup> ions (denoted as MgCaFe-LDH@Au NSs) to target the specific needs of the TME. The designed nanozyme mimics glucose oxidase to facilitate self-sufficient H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> production and simulates catalase and glutathione peroxidase to overcome the adverse conditions of hypoxia and elevated GSH levels in the TME. Subsequently, the nanozyme emulates peroxidase activity to generate ROS, amplifying oxidative stress and causing redox imbalance, ultimately inducing ferroptosis in tumor cells. Moreover, MgCaFe-LDH@Au NSs also function as an inorganic semiconductor sonosensitizer with a tunable band structure, enabling the generation of abundant ROS under ultrasound irradiation to achieve synergistic sonodynamic and catalytic therapy. Notably, the high levels of ROS induced by the nanozyme, along with the interference in tumor ATP synthesis, enhanced the calcium overload in the TME caused by the release of Ca<sup>2+</sup> from the nanozyme. In summary, this two-dimensional nanomaterial, through nanozyme and ultrasound-catalyzed synergistic disruption of tumor energy supply and redox balance, exhibited significant therapeutic efficacy in a 4T1 tumor-bearing mouse model.

The behavior of pNIPAAm and its block copolymer with pMMA (pNIPAAm-<i>b</i>-pMMA) films is not fully understood. In this study, the effects of ultraviolet/ozone (UV/O<sub>3</sub>), interdiffusion, and direct immersion annealing (DIA) treatments on the responsiveness and adhesion of spin-coated thin films of pNIPAAm and pNIPAAm-<i>b</i>-pMMA were investigated. The water contact angle (WCA) measurements were used to record changes in hydrophilicity and relaxation time for the films immersed in deionized water, as well as hydrophilicity changes during cyclic measurements. Atomic force microscopy was utilized to track phase transitions in the films over three complete and continuous thermal cycles. The phase transition behavior of the films across the LCST range remains insufficiently understood, particularly in relation to the influence of different treatment types and the underlying chemophysical mechanisms that regulate the orientation of functional groups along the polymer chains. In this study, we address these gaps by examining how these factors, along with the globule-to-coil transition of pNIPAAm chains, impact the films’ thermoresponsiveness and the time required for complete cell sheet detachment.

As one of the effective catalysts, platinum (Pt) has been widely used as the electrocatalyst for these reactions in the laboratory; however, its utilization in practical FAOR is still limited due to insufficient activity. This study introduces a simple and rapid molecular modification method to improve the FAOR performance of Pt by chemically adsorbing thiol or thiophenol molecules. At an optimal surface coverage of 7.1%, the current density of FAOR on cysteamine-grafted Pt reached up to 24.76 mA cm<sup>–2</sup>, a 7.2-fold increase compared to that on pristine Pt. This increase is mainly attributed to the change in the electronic structure of the Pt surface and the charge transfer at the interface, which are induced by the cysteamine molecules. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and in situ Raman spectroscopy demonstrated that the adsorption of cysteamine molecules on the Pt surface improves the charge transfer on the Pt surface and the production of formic acid via the formate pathway. The mechanism of enhanced catalysis on Pt-Cysteamine is revealed by density functional theory calculations. Interestingly, various thiols and thiophenols were also proved to be effective in promoting the FAOR reaction, and this strategy could also be applied to improve the performance of many other reactions (such as, methanol oxidation reaction).","PeriodicalId":5,"journal":{"name":"ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces","volume":"133 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.5,"publicationDate":"2025-05-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144145471","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
