This work reports a targeted activation of C-O-C of furfural alcohol (FA) to produce pentanediols (PeDs) over MnO-modified Cu. Infrared spectroscopy revealed the strong interaction of the furan ring and C-O-C of FA with the catalyst surface in a preferred flat adsorption configuration, thus facilitating the activation and cleavage of C-O-C to form PeDs.

Background: Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) represents a challenging complication of diabetes mellitus, characterized by slow healing processes. Protein kinase C delta (PKCδ) has been identified as a significant factor in the pathogenesis of various diabetic complications, including DFU. However, the precise underlying mechanisms remain to be fully elucidated.

Background: Non-obstructive azoospermia represents the most severe form of male infertility. The heterogeneous nature of focal spermatogenesis within the testes of non-obstructive azoospermia patients poses significant challenges for accurately predicting sperm retrieval rates.
Objectives: To develop a machine learning-based predictive model for estimating sperm retrieval rates in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia.

Despite growing interest in single-atom catalysts (SACs) for Fenton-like reactions, zinc (Zn)-based SACs remain unexplored due to the inherent inertness of Zn, whose fully occupied 3d electronic configuration limits redox activity. Here, we overcome this limitation by introducing boron (B) atoms to reconfigure the electronic structure of Zn-N coordination sites, yielding an activated catalyst denoted as Zn-NBC. This electronic modulation transforms inert Zn-N sites into catalytically active centers (Zn-NB ), enabling significantly enhanced Fenton-like activity.

Introduction: The white water lily (Nymphaea alba) is a traditional medicinal plant recognized for its diverse array of bioactive properties. However, its potential in wound healing remains largely unexplored. This study aimed to evaluate the phytochemical profile, cytotoxicity, and wound healing efficacy of Nymphaea alba flower extract (NAFE) using both in vitro and in vivo models, as well as computational network analysis.
