Article Abstract

We report herein two families of porous coordination clusters (PCCs) with 216 nuclearity (MRE or PCC-216MR) and 300 nuclearity (CoGd or PCC-300CG). For the first family M could be either nickel or cobalt, and RE = Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, and Gd; while the latter features the highest nuclearity of transition-rare earth metal clusters. Characterized by their cube-like, hollow structures, these clusters exhibit the ability to absorb N and CO. Besides, these clusters can be dissolved in both aqueous and acetonitrile/methanol solutions, and capable of acting as homogeneous catalysts for converting CO to CO under visible light. The gadolinium analogues of these clusters all show turnover numbers over 10000 and turnover frequencies over 1 s. In particular, the nickel based bimetallic cluster (PCC-216NG) demonstrates nearly 100 % selectivity for the reduction product, which may open a new direction for the design and development of PCCs based catalysts.

Water Storage Capacity and Mechanism of Aluminum Oxide Cluster Cations in the Gas Phase.

Desorption processes of HO molecules from AlO(HO) ( = 3, 5, 7) and AlO(HO)H ( = 4, 6, 8) clusters were investigated using gas-phase thermal desorption spectrometry to evaluate the HO storage capacity and mechanisms of aluminum oxide clusters. The clusters stored approximately 10 HO molecules at ∼300 K, depending on the size (), and released them upon heating. Even after heating to ∼1000 K, 2-4 HO molecules remained bound.

This research delves into the optimization of urbanization spatial patterns in Guizhou Province, China. The findings reveal that with regional coordinated development as the central objective and the optimization of urbanization spatial patterns as the strategic focus, a research framework encompassing "temporal and spatial evolution of urbanization - identification and summation of pain points and difficulties - scenario simulation and optimization - strategic goal selection" is utilized to specifically tackle issues pertaining to urbanization spatial patterns. Through the construction of diverse scenarios and rigorous research analysis, an implementation pathway is derived, advocating for "strengthening the central region of Guizhou, fostering urban agglomeration development, reinforcing developmental support points, and promoting regional coordinated development.

This article addresses the fixed-time leaderless cluster synchronization of spatiotemporal community networks (SCNs) characterized by nonidentical node dynamics and reaction-diffusion feature. First, a signed SCN with reaction-diffusion effect is formulated, where the sign-based coupling is introduced to capture the dynamics of coopetition interactions among different communities. Second, to ensure the invariance of the synchronous manifold, an improved interdegree balance condition is proposed as a prerequisite for achieving cluster synchronization of the community network.

Trehalose 6-phosphate - a central regulator at the crossroads of sugar signalling, metabolism, and development.

In mammals, blood sugar levels are tightly controlled by two hormones: insulin and glucagon. In flowering plants, a comparable regulatory mechanism exists, mediated by the sugar-signalling molecule trehalose 6-phosphate (Tre6P). Similar to insulin, Tre6P functions as a signal and negative feedback regulator of sucrose, the main transport sugar in vascular plants.

Background: Opioid use disorder (OUD) is commonly treated in specialized care settings with long-acting opioid agonists, also known as opioid agonist therapy, or OAT. Despite the rise in opioid use globally and evidence for a 50% reduction in mortality when OAT is employed, the proportion of people with OUD receiving OAT remains small. One initiative to improve the access and uptake of OAT could be to offer OAT in a primary care setting; primary care clinics are more numerous, might reduce the visibility and potential stigma of receiving treatment for OUD, and may facilitate the care of other medical conditions that are unrelated to OUD.
