transmission electron microscopy characterization and manipulation of the morphology, composition and phase evolution of nanomaterials under microenvironmental conditions.

Nanomaterials possess a broad range of applications in areas such as catalysis, energy, and biomedicine because of their unique properties. However, from the perspective of materials synthesis, there are numerous challenges in the controllable preparation of nanomaterials. These include the control of their size, morphology, crystal structure, and surface properties, which are essential for their performance in specific applications.

Sulfolane as a Solvent for Nano-MOF Synthesis: Enabling Prolonged Nucleation and Controlled Growth.

Conventional methods for synthesizing nano-sized metal-organic frameworks (nano-MOFs) often rely on additives or extra conditions, overlooking the critical role of solvents. Here, we highlight tetramethylene sulfone (TMS, or sulfolane) as a versatile solvent for nano-MOF synthesis. TMS forms strong solvation structures with metal ions and inhibits ligand deprotonation, enabling control over particle size.

The Amelioration of Methionine Restriction on the Celiac Toxic Effects of p31-43 Gliadin Peptide Is Disrupted by S-Adenosyl-Methionine.

Methionine restriction (MR) has been found to alleviate the progression of diseases such as cognitive disorders and cancer, but it is not clear whether regulating methionine availability can have a beneficial effect on wheat gluten-induced celiac disease. We aimed to excavate the effects of MR on the celiac toxic effects of p31-43 gliadin peptide. In this study, we systematically investigated the effects of MR on p31-43 gliadin peptide-induced oxidative damage, the elevation of tissue transglutaminase enzyme activity, the overexpression of inflammatory factors, the increase of permeability, and T-lymphocyte dysfunction by utilizing Caco-2 epithelial cells and lymphocytes derived from mouse mesenteric lymph nodes to elucidate the effectiveness of MR.

Dietary methionine restriction restores wheat gluten-induced celiac-associated small intestine damage in association with affecting butyric acid production by intestinal flora.

Methionine restriction has received some attention in recent years as a novel mode of dietary intervention. Our previous study found that methionine restriction could inhibit the celiac toxic effects of wheat gluten in an model. However, the role of methionine restriction in gluten-induced celiac intestinal damage remains unclear.

Elevating Discharge Voltage of LiCO-Routine Li-CO Battery over 2.9 V at an Ultra-Wide Temperature Window.

The Li-CO batteries utilizing greenhouse gas CO possess advantages of high energy density and environmental friendliness. However, these batteries following LiCO-product route typically exhibit low work voltage (<2.5 V) and energy efficiency.
