Article Abstract
The hyperpolarization of biomolecules at room temperature could facilitate highly sensitive magnetic resonance imaging for metabolic studies and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based screenings for drug discovery. In this study, we demonstrate the hyperpolarization of biomolecules in eutectic crystals using photoexcited triplet electrons at room temperature. Eutectic crystals composed of the domains of benzoic acid doped with the polarization source and analyte domains were prepared using a melting-quenching process. Spin diffusion between the benzoic acid and analyte domain was elucidated using solid-state NMR analysis, indicating that hyperpolarization was transferred from the domain of benzoic acid to the domain of the analyte.

Zero and ultralow-field nuclear magnetic resonance (ZULF NMR) is an NMR modality where experiments are performed in fields at which spin-spin interactions within molecules and materials are stronger than Zeeman interactions. This typically occurs at external fields of microtesla strength or below, considerably smaller than Earth's field. In ZULF NMR, the measurement of spin-spin couplings and spin relaxation rates provides a nondestructive means for identifying chemicals and chemical fragments, and for conducting sample or process analyses.

The inherently low sensitivity of solution-state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has long limited its ability to characterize transient biomolecular states at atomic resolution. While dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (dDNP) offers a compensating signal enhancement, its broader use has been hindered by rapid polarization decay, causing severe spectral distortion. Here, we introduce HyperW-Decon, an approach that enables high-sensitivity, high-resolution NMR of biomolecules in solution.

The GABA receptors, through a short-term interaction with a mediator, induce hyperpolarization of the membrane potential () via the passive influx of chloride ions (Cl) into neurons. The massive (or intense) activation of the GABARs by the agonist could potentially lead to depolarization/excitation of the . Although the ionic mechanisms of GABA-mediated depolarization remain incompletely understood, a combination of the outward chloride current and the inward bicarbonate current and the resulting pH shift are the main reasons for this event.

The pacemaker channel (HCN) is responsible for electrical activity in a wide range of excitable cells, including those of invertebrates. Using Xenopus oocytes and HEK cell, we show here that HCN-channel from Apis mellifera is activated by hyperpolarization, modulated by cAMP, and blocked by cesium. Its PNa/PK relative permeability is 1:3, and its unitary conductance is 1.
