Abstract
Cysteine-focused chemical proteomic platforms have accelerated the clinical development of covalent inhibitors for a wide range of targets in cancer. However, how different oncogenic contexts influence cysteine targeting remains unknown. To address this question, we have developed "DrugMap," an atlas of cysteine ligandability compiled across 416 cancer cell lines. We unexpectedly find that cysteine ligandability varies across cancer cell lines, and we attribute this to differences in cellular redox states, protein conformational changes, and genetic mutations. Leveraging these findings, we identify actionable cysteines in NF-κB1 and SOX10 and develop corresponding covalent ligands that block the activity of these transcription factors. We demonstrate that the NF-κB1 probe blocks DNA binding, whereas the SOX10 ligand increases SOX10-SOX10 interactions and disrupts melanoma transcriptional signaling. Our findings reveal heterogeneity in cysteine ligandability across cancers, pinpoint cell-intrinsic features driving cysteine targeting, and illustrate the use of covalent probes to disrupt oncogenic transcription-factor activity.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tuberculous peritonitis (TBP) is a rare but fatal complication in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). In this study, we aimed to determine the demographic features, clinical features, laboratory parameters, and clinical outcomes of PD patients with TBP and to clarify possible risk factors for mortality. MATERIALS AND METHODS We retrospectively reviewed 2084 PD patients from January 1985 to December 2019. The diagnosis of TBP was established by positive peritoneal fluid culture for Mycobacterium tuberculosis. RESULTS 18 patients were diagnosed with TBP. The incidence was 2.029 episodes per 1000 patient-years. The most common symptom was fever (94.4%), followed by cloudy effluent (83.3%) and abdominal pain (83.3%). The average peritoneal dialysis effluent (PDE) white blood cell (WBC) count was 172.7 cells/μL. Nine patients (50%) had WBC counts lower than 100 cells/μL and 13 patients (72.2%) had neutrophilic predominant WBC counts. Acid fast stain (AFS) was positive in 7 patients (38.9%). Only 2 patients (11.1%) continued with PD after TB infection, while 10 patients (55.6%) changed to hemodialysis. Seven patients (38.9%) died within 1 year. Significant differences were observed in sex (p = 0.040), the presence of diabetes mellitus (p = 0.024), and PD catheter removal (p < 0.001) between TBP patients with and without mortality. However, none of them was a significant factor for 1-year mortality in multivariate Cox regression model. CONCLUSION Physicians should pay attention to the unusual presentations of peritonitis, especially if symptoms include fever or an initial low PDE WBC count. Catheter removal is not mandatory if early diagnosis and appropriate therapy are available.

Abstract
High-quality evidence indicated that both neoadjuvant carboplatin/paclitaxel (CROSS) and cisplatin/5-fluorouracil (PF) regimens in combination with radiotherapy improve survival outcomes compared to surgery alone in patients with esophageal cancer. It is not yet known whether they may differ in terms of treatment burden and healthcare costs. A total of 232 Taiwanese patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma who had undergone neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (nCRT) with either the CROSS (n = 153) or the PF (n = 79) regimens were included. Hospital encounters and adverse events were assessed for determining treatment burden. Cost-effectiveness analysis was undertaken using the total costs incurred over 3 years in relation to overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Compared with PF, the CROSS regimen was associated with a lower treatment burden: shorter inpatient days on average (4.65 ± 10.05 vs. 15.14 ± 17.63 days; P < 0.001) and fewer admission requirements (70% of the patients were never admitted vs. 20% in the PF group; P < 0.001). Patients in the CROSS group experienced significantly less nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. While the benefits observed in the CROSS group were associated with additional nCRT-related expenditures (1388 United States dollars [USD] of added cost per patient), this regimen remained cost-effective. At a willingness-to-pay threshold of 50,000 USD per life-year, the probability of the CROSS regimen to be more cost-effective than PF was 94.1% for PFS but decreased to 68.9% for OS. The use of the CROSS regimen for nCRT in patients with ESCC was associated with a lower treatment burden and was more cost-effective than PF.

Abstract
The loss of skeletal muscle strength mid-life in females is associated with the decline of estrogen. Here, we questioned how estrogen deficiency might impact the overall skeletal muscle phosphoproteome after contraction, as force production induces phosphorylation of several muscle proteins. Phosphoproteomic analyses of the tibialis anterior muscle after contraction in two mouse models of estrogen deficiency, ovariectomy (Ovariectomized (Ovx) vs. Sham) and natural aging-induced ovarian senescence (Older Adult (OA) vs. Young Adult (YA)), identified a total of 2,593 and 3,507 phosphopeptides in Ovx/Sham and OA/YA datasets, respectively. Further analysis of estrogen deficiency-associated proteins and phosphosites identified 66 proteins and 21 phosphosites from both datasets. Of these, 4 estrogen deficiency-associated proteins and 4 estrogen deficiency-associated phosphosites were significant and differentially phosphorylated or regulated, respectively. Comparative analyses between Ovx/Sham and OA/YA using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) found parallel patterns of inhibition and activation across IPA-defined canonical signaling pathways and physiological functional analysis, which were similarly observed in downstream GO, KEGG, and Reactome pathway overrepresentation analysis pertaining to muscle structural integrity and contraction, including AMPK and calcium signaling. IPA Upstream regulator analysis identified MAPK1 and PRKACA as candidate kinases and calcineurin as a candidate phosphatase sensitive to estrogen. Our findings highlight key molecular signatures and pathways in contracted muscle suggesting that the similarities identified across both datasets could elucidate molecular mechanisms that may contribute to skeletal muscle strength loss due to estrogen deficiency.

Abstract
Here, we propose phase and interfacial engineering by inserting a functional WO3 layer and selenized it to achieve a 2D-layered WSe2/WO3 heterolayer structure by a plasma-assisted selenization process. The 2D-layered WSe2/WO3 heterolayer was coupled with an Al2O3 film as a resistive switching (RS) layer to form a hybrid structure, with which Pt and W films were used as the top and bottom electrodes, respectively. The device with good uniformity in SET/RESET voltage and high low-/high-resistance window can be obtained by controlling a conversion ratio from a WO3 film to a 2D-layered WSe2 thin film. The Pt/Al2O3/(2D-layered WSe2/WO3)/W structure shows remarkable improvement to the pristine Pt/Al2O3/W and Pt/Al2O3/2D-layered WO3/W in terms of low SET/RESET voltage variability (-20/20)%, multilevel characteristics (uniform LRS/HRS distribution), high on/off ratio (104-105), and retention (∼105 s). The thickness of the obtained WSe2 was tuned at different gas ratios to optimize different 2D-layered WSe2/WO3 (%) ratios, showing a distinctive trend of reduced and uniform SET/RESET voltage variability as 2D-layered WSe2/WO3 (%) changes from 90/10 (%) to 45/55 (%), respectively. The electrical measurements confirm the superior ability of the metallic 1T phase of the 2D-layered WSe2 over the semiconducting 2H phase. Through systemic studies of RS behaviors on the effect of 1T/2H phases and 2D-layered WSe2/WO3 ratios, the low-temperature plasma-assisted selenization offers compatibility with the temperature-limited 3D integration process and also provides much better thickness control over a large area.

Abstract
Multiple anticancer drugs have been proposed to cause cell death, in part, by increasing the steady-state levels of cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, for most of these drugs, exactly how the resultant ROS function and are sensed is poorly understood. It remains unclear which proteins the ROS modify and their roles in drug sensitivity/resistance. To answer these questions, we examined 11 anticancer drugs with an integrated proteogenomic approach identifying not only many unique targets but also shared ones-including ribosomal components, suggesting common mechanisms by which drugs regulate translation. We focus on CHK1 that we find is a nuclear H2O2 sensor that launches a cellular program to dampen ROS. CHK1 phosphorylates the mitochondrial DNA-binding protein SSBP1 to prevent its mitochondrial localization, which in turn decreases nuclear H2O2. Our results reveal a druggable nucleus-to-mitochondria ROS-sensing pathway-required to resolve nuclear H2O2 accumulation and mediate resistance to platinum-based agents in ovarian cancers.

Abstract
Positive and negative economic growth is closely related to the suicide rate. To answer the question whether economic development has a dynamic impact on this rate, we used a panel smooth transition autoregressive model to evaluate the threshold effect of economic growth rate on the persistence of suicide. The research period was from 1994 to 2020, and the results show that the suicide rate had a persistent effect, which varied over time depending on the transition variable within different threshold intervals. However, the persistent effect was manifested in different degrees with the change in the economic growth rate and as the lag period of the suicide rate increased, the effect of the influence gradually decreased. We investigated different lag periods and noted that the impact on the suicide rate was the strongest in the first year after an economic change and then reduced to be only marginal after three years. This means that the growth momentum of the suicide rate within the first two years after a change in the economic growth rate, should be included in policy considerations of how to prevent suicides.

Abstract
Here, the successful transformation of graphitic carbon with a high degree of graphitization and a nanoflake structure from pyrolytic tire carbon black was demonstrated. First, amorphous carbon black with a porous structure was obtained after pyrolysis and simple preacid treatments. Subsequently, the carbon black was converted into a highly graphitic structure at a relatively low temperature (850 °C) through a facile electrochemical route using molten salt, which is ecofriendly and has high potential for large-scale graphitization compared to conventional incineration techniques. Moreover, we further improved the crystallinity and uniformity of the product simultaneously by directly mixing the metal oxide catalyst Fe2O3 with a carbon precursor. The mechanism of this metal-catalyzed electrochemical graphitization has been discussed in detail. To confirm their potential in practical applications, the as-prepared graphitized nanoflakes were used as conductive additives for silicon anodes in lithium-ion batteries, which showed a performance comparable to those utilizing commercial Super-P additives, exhibiting an initial Coulombic efficiency of approximately 79.7% and a high capacity retention of approximately 45.8% after 100 cycles with a reversible capacity of 1220 mAh g-1 at a current rate of 400 mA g-1. Hence, successfully recovered waste-tire-derived carbon black utilizing a low-temperature Fe2O3-catalyzed electrochemical process opens a pathway in low-temperature graphitization toward a sustainable value-added application in the field of energy storage.

Abstract
Multiple cancers regulate oxidative stress by activating the transcription factor NRF2 through mutation of its negative regulator, KEAP1. NRF2 has been studied extensively in KEAP1-mutant cancers; however, the role of this pathway in cancers with wild-type KEAP1 remains poorly understood. To answer this question, we induced NRF2 via pharmacological inactivation of KEAP1 in a panel of 50+ non-small cell lung cancer cell lines. Unexpectedly, marked decreases in viability were observed in >13% of the cell lines-an effect that was rescued by NRF2 ablation. Genome-wide and targeted CRISPR screens revealed that NRF2 induces NADH-reductive stress, through the upregulation of the NAD+-consuming enzyme ALDH3A1. Leveraging these findings, we show that cells treated with KEAP1 inhibitors or those with endogenous KEAP1 mutations are selectively vulnerable to Complex I inhibition, which impairs NADH oxidation capacity and potentiates reductive stress. Thus, we identify reductive stress as a metabolic vulnerability in NRF2-activated lung cancers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND We examined the impact of the weekend effect on the survival outcomes of patients undergoing elective esophagectomy for cancer. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of a nationwide, health administrative dataset that included all patients (n = 3235) who had undergone elective esophagectomy for cancer in Taiwanese hospitals between 2008 and 2015. Patients were categorized according to the day of surgery (weekday group: surgical procedures starting Monday through Friday, n = 3148; weekend group: surgical procedures starting on Saturday or Sunday, n = 87). Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) using the propensity score was used to account for selection bias due to baseline differences. RESULTS After IPTW, patients undergoing esophagectomy on weekends had a higher 90-days mortality rate compared with those undergoing surgery on a weekday (10.5% vs. 5.5%, respectively, P < 0.001). After controlling for potential confounders, weekend surgery was identified as an independent adverse predictor of 2-years, overall survival [hazard ratio (HR) = 1.38, P < 0.001]. Importantly, inferior weekend outcomes were especially evident in certain subgroups, including patients aged > 60 years (HR = 1.61, P < 0.001), as well as those with a high burden of comorbidities (HR = 1.32, P < 0.001), advanced tumor stage (HR = 1.50, P < 0.001), histological diagnosis of squamous cell carcinoma (HR = 1.20, P < 0.001), and treated with minimally invasive esophagectomy (HR = 1.26, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Elective esophagectomy for cancer during weekends has an adverse impact on short- and long-term survival.

Abstract
In this work, a low-power memristor based on vertically stacked two-dimensional (2D) layered materials, achieved by plasma-assisted vapor reaction, as the switching material, with which the copper and gold metals as electrodes featured by reversible polymorphous phase changes from a conducting 1T-phase to a semiconducting 2H-one once copper cations interacted between vertical lamellar layers and vice versa, was demonstrated. Here, molybdenum diselenide was chosen as the switching material, and the reversible polymorphous phase changes activated by the intercalation of Cu cations were confirmed by pseudo-operando Raman scattering, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning photoelectron microscopy under high and low resistance states, respectively. The switching can be activated at about ±1 V with critical currents less than 10 μA with an on/off ratio approaching 100 after 100 cycles and low power consumption of ∼0.1 microwatt as well as linear weight updates controlled by the amount of intercalation. The work provides alternative feasibility of reversible and all-solid-state metal interactions, which benefits monolithic integrations of 2D materials into operative electronic circuits.

Abstract
Protein phosphorylation is important in skeletal muscle development, growth, regeneration, and contractile function. Alterations in the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome due to aging have been reported in males; however, studies in females are lacking. We have demonstrated that estrogen deficiency decreases muscle force, which correlates with decreased myosin regulatory light chain phosphorylation. Thus, we questioned whether the decline of estrogen in females that occurs with aging might alter the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome. C57BL/6J female mice (6 mo) were randomly assigned to a sham-operated (Sham) or ovariectomy (Ovx) group to investigate the effects of estrogen deficiency on skeletal muscle protein phosphorylation in a resting, noncontracting condition. After 16 wk of estrogen deficiency, the tibialis anterior muscle was dissected and prepped for label-free nano-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry phosphoproteomic analysis. We identified 4,780 phosphopeptides in tibialis anterior muscles of ovariectomized (Ovx) and Sham-operated (Sham) control mice. Further analysis revealed 647 differentially regulated phosphopeptides (Benjamini-Hochberg adjusted P value < 0.05 and 1.5-fold change ratio) that corresponded to 130 proteins with 22 proteins differentially phosphorylated (3 unique to Ovx, 2 unique to Sham, 6 upregulated, and 11 downregulated). Differentially phosphorylated proteins associated with the sarcomere, cytoplasm, and metabolic and calcium signaling pathways were identified. Our work provides the first global phosphoproteomic analysis in females and how estrogen deficiency impacts the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of pancreatic lesions in children. Methods: The clinicopathological data of pancreatic lesions in children were analyzed including 42 cases of pancreatic tumors diagnosed from January 2000 to May 2021 in Guangzhou Women's and Children's Medical Center, Guangzhou, China. Histological and immunohistochemical assessments were performed. Related literature was reviewed. Results: The 42 pediatric patients with pancreatic lesions aged 1 day to 12 years (mean, 4.25 years). There were 23 males and 19 females. Clinical presentations included abdominal masses, abdominal pain, vomiting and persistent hypoglycemia after birth. Ultrasound and computerized tomography examination showed space-occupying pancreatic lesions in 31 cases, but no detectable pancreatic lesions in 11 cases. Histologically, among the 42 cases, 22 cases (52.4%) were neoplastic, including 18 cases of epithelial origin. Nine cases of pancreatoblastoma showed that the epithelial tumor cells were arranged in a trabecular pattern, with squamous nests. Six cases of solid-pseudopapillary tumors revealed hemorrhagic and necrotic cysts and monomorphic epithelioid cells arranged in solid sheets, nests or pseudopapillae. Two cases of neuroendocrine tumors showed tumor cells arranged in cords or nests; one case had a mitotic count of about 3/10 high power field, and a Ki-67 index of about 5%, which was consistent with G2 neuroendocrine tumor; the other case showed tumor cells with cytological atypia, brisk mitoses, about 25/10 HPF and a Ki-67 index of about 80%, consistent with small-cell type neuroendocrine carcinoma. The case of acinar cell carcinoma showed high cellularity, tumor cells in solid, cord-like or acinar-like arrangement with little stroma, and monotonous tumor cells with single distinct nucleolus. There were 4 cases of mesenchymal tumors, including 3 cases of Kaposi's hemangioendothelioma and 1 case of inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor. Among the 20 cases (47.6%) of non-neoplastic lesions, there were 11 cases of hyperinsulinism with ATP-sensitive potassium channel abnormality (HAPCA). Severn cases of diffuse type HAPCA in which the islets scattered between the pancreatic acinar tissue, enlarged, and prominent nuclei. Three cases of focal type HAPCA showed pancreatic islet hyperplasia in the form of nested nodules (0.6-1.5 cm). One case of atypical type HAPCA had extensive islet hyperplasia in pancreatic tissue, and scattered proliferation of nest-like nodules was noted. There were also 7 cases of pseudocyst and 2 cases of congenital cyst. Immunohistochemically, pancreatoblastomas were diffusely positive for CKpan, CK8/18, and β-catenin (nuclear staining of squamous nests only). Solid-pseudopapillary tumors expressed CD10, cyclin D1, CD99, vimentin, CD56, and β-catenin (nuclear staining). Neuroendocrine tumors were positive for CK, Syn, NSE, CgA, CD56, and β-catenin (membranous staining). The acinar cell carcinoma was positive for CK8/18, trypsin, and β-catenin (membranous staining). Conclusions: Pancreatic lesions in children have a wide range of histopathological types. HAPCA is the most common lesion of newborns. Pediatric pancreatic tumors are rare and mostly malignant. It is important to recognize them and make correct pathological diagnoses.

Abstract
Intestinal proteases mediate digestion and immune signaling, while increased gut proteolytic activity disrupts the intestinal barrier and generates visceral hypersensitivity, which in common in irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). However, the mechanisms controlling protease function are unclear. Here we show that members of the gut microbiota suppress intestinal proteolytic activity through production of unconjugated bilirubin. This occurs via microbial β-glucuronidase-mediated conversion of bilirubin conjugates. Metagenomic analysis of fecal samples from patients with post-infection IBS (n=52) revealed an altered gut microbiota composition, in particular a reduction in Alistipes taxa, and high gut proteolytic activity driven by specific host serine proteases compared to controls. Germ-free mice showed 10-fold higher proteolytic activity compared with conventional mice. Colonization with microbiota from high proteolytic activity IBS patients failed to suppress proteolytic activity in germ-free mice, but suppression of proteolytic activity was achieved with colonization using microbiota from healthy donors. High proteolytic activity mice had higher intestinal permeability, a higher relative abundance of Bacteroides and a reduction in Alistipes taxa compared with low proteolytic activity mice. High proteolytic activity IBS patients had lower fecal β-glucuronidase activity and end-products of bilirubin deconjugation. Mice treated with unconjugated bilirubin and β-glucuronidase overexpressing E. coli, which significantly reduced proteolytic activity, while inhibitors of microbial β-glucuronidases increased proteolytic activity. Together, these data define a disease-relevant mechanism of host-microbial interaction that maintains protease homeostasis in the gut.

Abstract
Objective: To explore the application of multidisciplinary treatment (MDT) and comprehensive management model in the diagnosis and treatment of early-stage lung cancer, and analyze its clinical value and the feasibility and significance of promotion. Methods: A retrospective study of 470 patients in Xijing Hospital who underwent surgery after MDT from January 8, 2018 to December 31, 2019. There were 172 males and 298 females, aged from 23 to 79 (54.46±11.08) years. Basic diagnosis and treatment information as well as postoperative pathology were analyzed, of which 441 cases were recommended for surgery by MDT and 29 cases were subjectively requested for surgery. The patients' general condition, preoperative diagnosis and pathological results were compared, and the specific content of the MDT and comprehensive management model were summarized. We also explored the value of MDT integrated management model in early stage lung cancer treatment in the context of the current lung cancer incidence in China. Results: Among 470 surgical patients, the majority of males had solid nodules (69/172,40.1%), and the majority of females had ground glass nodules (135/298,45.3%). The distribution of nodules showed a trend of more upper lobe(277/470)than lower lobe(161/470) and more right lung(276/470) than left lung(194/470). Among the 441 patients recommended for surgery, 98.11% of males (156/159) and 97.87% of females (276/282) showed malignant pathology after surgery. Adenocarcinoma was the main pathological type (93.59% of males, 146/156; 97.46% of females, 269/276). Among the malignant pathological results, carcinoma in situ (42.31% of males, 66/156; 47.10% of females, 130/276) and stage I lung cancer (50.64% of males, 79/156; 47.46% of females, 131/276) were the most common. In all patients, 1.89% of the males (3/159) and 2.13% of the females (6/282) recommended for surgery showed benign postoperative pathology, of which tuberculosis and fungal infection were the main pathological types (66.67% for each gender, males 2/3, females, 4/6). The postoperative pathology of 29 patients who subjectively requested surgery was also tuberculosis and fungal infection as the main pathological types (69.23% of males, 9/13; 68.75% of females, 11/16). The MDT comprehensive management model made full use of a variety of auxiliary diagnostic technologies and combined the experience advantages of multidisciplinary participation to make up for the limitations of single-diagnosis. The overall diagnosis coincidence rate reached 98.09%, with strong consistency (Kappa>0.81). The positive predictive value (PPV) was 97.96%, the negative predictive value (NPV) was 100%, and the average patient diagnosis and treatment cycle was 24.28-26.51 days. Conclusions: The MDT comprehensive management model meets the consensus requirements. It has great advantages in diagnostic efficiency and diagnosis and treatment cycle, and has a high promotion and application value for the diagnosis and treatment of early-stage lung cancer. At the same time, tuberculosis and fungal infection should be regarded as an important differential diagnosis item.

Abstract
Zinc ion batteries have been extensively studied with an aqueous electrolyte system. However, the batteries suffer from a limited potential window, gas evolution, cathode dissolution, and dendrite formation on the anode. Considering these limitations, we developed an alternative electrolyte system based on deep eutectic solvents (DESs) because of their low cost, high stability, biodegradability, and non-flammability, making them optimal candidates for sustainable batteries. The DES electrolyte enables reversible Zn plating/stripping and effectively suppresses zinc dendrite formation. Furthermore, in-depth characterizations reveal that the energy storage mechanism can be attributed to [ZnCl]+ ion intercalation and the intermediate complex ion plays a pivotal role in electrochemical reactions, which deliver a high reversible capacity of 310 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1and long-term stability (167 mAh g-1 at a current density of 0.3 A g-1 after 300 cycles, Coulombic efficiency: ∼98%). Overall, this work represents our new finding in rechargeable batteries with the DES electrolyte.

Abstract
Abstract
Breast cancer cells express Type 1 Insulin-like Growth Factor Receptor (IGF1R) and Insulin Receptor (IR). These receptors have a role in breast cancer biology and mediate metabolism, proliferation, survival, and motility. IR gene undergoes differential splicing that generates two IR isoforms, IRA (exclusion of exon 11) and IRB. High levels of IRA expression in prenatal growth and development are observed, whereas IRB expression is more highly expressed in adult insulin responsive tissues. IRA overexpression is the predominant receptor isoform expressed in breast cancer specimens obtained from patients with endocrine resistant disease. To measure levels of IRA and IRB mRNA expression, we utilized IR isoform specific primers in quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR). The validation of IRA and IRB primers was determined via using IRA and IRB overexpressing clones of MCF7 cells. IRA and IRB mRNA expression was also studied in human adipose and liver tissues that majorly express the adult IRB isoform. Over 40 breast cancer cell lines and 20 ER+ patient tumor samples were studied to determine IRA and IRB mRNA expression. Total IR, IGF1R, IRS1, and IRS2 were also analyzed in cell lines and patient samples. Across the ATCC breast cancer cell lines and ER+ patient tumors, heterogeneity was found among all targeted genes. Using MCF-7 cells as control, we found one of the breast cancer cell lines, Du4475, has very high IRA mRNA expression level (200-fold of that in MCF-7). Using mass spectrometry technology, we quantified levels of IR isoform expression in Du4475 cells. Briefly, IR immunoprecipitates were subjected to SDS-PAGE gels and the IRA protein gel band was submitted for mass spectrometry. Since IRA does not contain exon 11, the identified unique peptide consistent with its expression is TFEDYLHNVVFVPRPS. After this IRA specific peptide was determined, the heavy-labeled (C13- and N15-containing) IRA peptide was used as an internal injection control to quantify the IRA level. Quantitative results of IRA peptode sequence were proportional to the mRNA levels previously detected in Du4475 cell lysate. Using MCF-7 IRB overexpression cell line MCF7L-IRB-C5, we identified two IRB peptides, KTSSGTGAEDPRPSR and TSSGTGAEDPRPSR at exon 11 region by mass spectrometry. Cell membrane and total cell lysates could also be used to detect IR protein isoforms by mass spectrometry analysis. Further measurement of IRA and IRB level on other breast cancer cell lines is ongoing. In summary, we are the first to use mass spectrometry to validate protein expression of IR isoforms at levels that correlate with mRNA expression. IRA mRNA and protein expression levels in breast cancer cell lines may serve as biomarkers to screen patients for targeted therapy.

Abstract
A multifunctional ion-sensitive floating gate Fin field-effect transistor (ISFGFinFET) for hydrogen and sodium detection is demonstrated. The ISFGFinFET comprises a FGFET and a sensing film, both of which are used to detect and improve sensitivity. The sensitivity of the ISFGFinFET can be adjusted by modulating the coupling effect of the FG. A nanoseaweed structure is fabricated via glancing angle deposition (GLAD) technology to obtain a large sensing area to enhance the sensitivity for hydrogen ion detection. A sensitivity of 266 mV per pH can be obtained using a surface area of 3.28 mm2 . In terms of sodium ion detection, a calix[4]arene sensing film to monitor sodium ions, obtaining a Na+ sensitivity of 432.7 mV per pNa, is used. In addition, the ISFGFinFET demonstrates the functionality of multiple ions detection simultaneously. The sensor arrays composed of 3 × 3 pixels are demonstrated, each of which comprise of an FGFET sensor and a transistor. Furthermore, 16 × 16 arrays with a decoder and other peripheral circuits are constructed and simulated. The performance of the proposed ISFGFinFET is competitive with that of other state-of-the-art ion sensors.

Abstract
Dynapenia, the age-related loss of skeletal muscle strength without the loss of muscle mass, significantly impacts the activities and quality of life of the aging population. Studies have shown that dynapenia occurs earlier in females than males in both human and rodent studies. Moreover, in females, estrogen deficiency has been shown to contribute to the loss of skeletal muscle strength as well as blunted recovery of strength after injury. The maintenance of skeletal muscle contractile function is vital to the overall health of women, especially as women live 1/3 of their life in an estrogen deficient state. Reversible protein phosphorylation is an indispensable post-translational modification, playing a key role in signal transduction pathways. Phosphorylation of skeletal muscle proteins have been shown to regulate sarcomeric function, excitation-contraction coupling, energy metabolism, and fiber-type composition. To define the physiological changes in the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome associated with estrogen deficiency, we used an ovariectomy model coupled with mass spectrometry. We identified, in total, 5,424 unique phosphorylation sites and 1,177 phosphoproteins in the tibialis anterior muscle. Ingenuity Pathway Analysis show decreased phosphorylation of contractile proteins and significant predicted inhibition of the upstream kinase, CDK6 (z-score -2.0) in ovariectomized compared to control muscles. Our results suggest that estrogen deficiency remodels the skeletal muscle phosphoproteome which may alter phosphorylation signaling that might contribute to the loss of strength in females.

Abstract
A conductive-bridge random access memory (CBRAM) has been considered a promising candidate for the next-generation nonvolatile memory technology because of its excellent performance, for which the resistive switching behavior depends on the formation/dissolution of conducting filaments in an electrolyte layer originated by the cation injection from the active electrode with electrochemical reactions. Typically, the controllability of cations into the electrolyte layer is a main issue, leading to stable switching reliability. In this work, an architecture combining spike-shaped Ag electrodes created by Al2O3 nanopillar arrays as a physical diffusion barrier by glancing angle deposition technology was proposed to localize Ag cation injection for the formation of controllable filaments inside TiOx as the switching layer. Interestingly, the dimension of the Ag plugs defined by the topography of Al2O3 nanopillar arrays can control Ag cation injection to influence the dimensionality of conductive filaments. Compared to the typical planar-Ag/TiOx/Pt device, the spiked-Ag/Al2O3 nanopillar arrays/TiOx/Pt device shows improvement of endurance and voltage disturbance. With enhanced multilevel characteristics, the spiked active-metal-based CBRAM device can be expected to serve as an analogue synapse for neuromorphic applications.

Abstract
A new type of two-dimensional (2D) SnO2 semiconductor-based gate-tunable memristor, that is, a memtransistor, an integrated device of a memristor and a transistor, was demonstrated to advance next-generation neuromorphic computing technology. The polycrystalline 2D-SnO2 memristors derived from a low-temperature and vacuum-free liquid metal process offer several interesting resistive switching properties such as excellent digital/analog resistive switching, multistate storage, and gate-tunability function of resistance switching states. Significantly, the gate tunability function that is not achievable in conventional two-terminal memristors provides the capability to implement heterosynaptic analog switching by regulating gate bias for enabling complex neuromorphic learning. We successfully demonstrated that the gate-tunable synaptic device dynamically modulated the analog switching behavior with good linearity and an improved conductance change ratio for high recognition accuracy learning. The presented gate-tunable 2D-oxide memtransistor will advance neuromorphic device technology and open up new opportunities to design learning schemes with an extra degree of freedom.

Abstract
Atomically thin oxide semiconductors are significantly expected for next-generation cost-effective, energy-efficient electronics. A high-performance p-channel oxide thin-film transistor (TFT) was developed using an atomically thin p-type tin monoxide, SnO channel with a thickness of ∼1 nm, which was grown by a vacuum-free, solvent-free, metal-liquid printing process at low temperatures, as low as 250 °C in an ambient atmosphere. By performing oxygen-vacancy defect termination for the bulk-channel and back-channel surface of the ultrathin SnO channel, the presented p-channel SnO TFT exhibited good device performances with a reasonable TFT mobility of ∼0.47 cm2 V-1 s-1, a high on/off current ratio of ∼106, low off current of <10-12 A, and a subthreshold swing of ∼2.5 V decade-1, which was improved compared with the conventional p-channel SnO TFTs. We also fabricated metal-liquid printing-based n-channel oxide TFTs such as n-channel SnO2 and In2O3-TFTs and developed ultrathin-channel oxide-TFT-based low-power complementary inverter circuits with the developed p-channel SnO TFTs. The full swing of voltage-transfer characteristics with a voltage gain of ∼10 and a power dissipation of <4 nW for p-SnO/n-SnO2 and ∼120 and <2 nW for p-SnO/n-In2O3-CMOS inverters were successfully demonstrated.

Abstract
Esophageal cancer survival has improved owing to improvements in surgical techniques and preoperative chemoradiation. Excessive alcohol consumption is a shared risk factor for esophageal cancer and chronic alcoholic pancreatitis. Puestow's procedure is a treatment choice for pain relief and pancreatic duct decompression. It is logical to perform Puestow's procedure on patients undergoing esophagectomy with underlying chronic pancreatitis to preserve pancreatic function and restore quality of life in the setting of improved esophageal cancer overall survival. Herein, we report our preliminary experience with two patients who underwent both of these procedures during the same operation and achieved acceptable outcomes.

Abstract
In the failing heart, the cardiac myocyte microtubule network is remodeled, which contributes to cellular contractile failure and patient death. However, the origins of this deleterious cytoskeletal reorganization are unknown. We now find that oxidative stress, a condition characteristic of heart failure, leads to cysteine oxidation of microtubules. Our electron and fluorescence microscopy experiments revealed regions of structural damage within the microtubule lattice that occurred at locations of oxidized tubulin. The incorporation of GTP-tubulin into these damaged, oxidized regions led to stabilized "hot spots" within the microtubule lattice, which suppressed the shortening of dynamic microtubules. Thus, oxidative stress may act inside of cardiac myocytes to facilitate a pathogenic shift from a sparse microtubule network into a dense, aligned network. Our results demonstrate how a disease condition characterized by oxidative stress can trigger a molecular oxidation event, which likely contributes to a toxic cellular-scale transformation of the cardiac myocyte microtubule network.

Abstract
Interactions between charged amino acids significantly influence the structure and function of proteins. The encoded charged amino acids Asp, Glu, Arg, and Lys have different number of hydrophobic methylenes linking the backbone to the charged functionality. It remains to be fully understood how does this difference in the number of methylenes affect protein structure stability. Protein secondary structures are the fundamental three-dimensional building blocks of protein structures. β-Sheet structures are particularly interesting, because these structures have been associated with a number of protein misfolding diseases. Herein, we report the effect of charged amino acid side chain length at two β-strand positions individually on the stability of a β-hairpin. The charged amino acids include side chains with a carboxylate, an ammonium, or a guanidinium group. The experimental peptides, fully folded reference peptides, and fully unfolded reference peptides were synthesized by solid phase peptide synthesis and analyzed by 2D NMR methods including TOCSY, DQF-COSY, and ROESY. Sequence specific assignments were performed for all peptides. The chemical shift data were used to derive the fraction folded population and the folding free energy for the experimental peptides. Results showed that the fraction folded population increased with increasing charged amino acid side chain length. These results should be useful for developing functional peptides that adopt the β-conformation.

Abstract
Single crystal wafers, such as silicon, are the fundamental carriers of advanced electronic devices. However, these wafers exhibit rigidity without mechanical flexibility, limiting their applications in flexible electronics. Here, we propose a new approach to fabricate 1.5 in. flexible functional zinc oxide (ZnO) single crystal wafers with high electron mobility (>100 cm2 V-1 s-1) and optical transparency (>80%) by a combination of thin-film deposition, a chemical solution method, and surficial treatment. The uniformity of the flexible single crystal wafers is examined by an advanced scanning X-ray diffraction technique and photoluminescence spectroscopy. The transport properties of ZnO flexible single crystal wafers retain their pristine states under various bending conditions, including cyclability and endurability. This approach demonstrates a breakthrough in the fabrication of the flexible single crystal wafers for future flexible optoelectronic applications.

Abstract
Here, a current-accelerated phase cycling by an in situ current-induced oxidation process was demonstrated to reversibly switch the local metallic Cu and semiconducting Cu2O phases of patterned polycrystalline copper nanobelts. Once the Cu nanobelts were applied by a direct-current bias of ∼0.5 to 1 V in air with opposite polarities, the resistance between several hundred ohms and more than MΩ can be manipulated. In practice, the thickness of 60 nm with a moderate grain size inhibiting both electromigration and permanent oxidation is the optimized condition for reversible switching when the oxygen supply is sufficient. More than 40% of the copper localized beneath the positively biased electrode was oxidized assisted by the Joule heating, blocking the current flow. On the contrary, the reduction reaction of Cu2O was activated by the thermally assisted electromigration of Cu atoms penetrating the interlayer at the reverse bias. Finally, based on a high on/off ratio, the fast switching and the scalable production, reusable feasibility based on copper nanobelts such as the memristor array was demonstrated.

Abstract
Real-time, daily health monitoring can provide large amounts of patient data, which may greatly improve the likelihood of diagnosing health conditions at an early stage. One potential sensor is a flexible humidity sensor to monitor moisture and humidity information such as dehydration. However, achieving a durable functional nanomaterial-based flexible humidity sensor remains a challenge due to partial desorption of water molecules during the recovery process, especially at high humidities. In this work, we demonstrate a highly stable resistive-type Pd/HNb3O8 humidity sensor, which exhibits a perdurable performance for over 100 h of cycle tests under a 90% relative humidity (RH) without significant performance degradation. One notable advantage of the Pd/HNb3O8 humidity sensor is its ability to regulate hydroniums due to the strong reducibility of H atoms dissociated on the Pd surface. This feature realizes a high stability even at a high humidity (99.9% RH). Using this superior performance, the Pd/HNb3O8 humidity sensor realizes wireless monitoring of the changes in the fingertip humidity of an adult under different physiological states, demonstrating a facile and reliable path for dehydration diagnosis.

Abstract
Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) have recently attracted a tremendous amount of attention owing to their superior optical and electrical properties as well as the interesting and various nanostructures that are created by different synthesis processes. However, the atomic thickness of TMDCs limits the light absorption and results in the weak performance of optoelectronic devices, such as photodetectors. Here, we demonstrate the approach to increase the surface area of TMDCs by a one-step synthesis process of TMDC nanowalls from WOx into three-dimensional (3D) WS2 nanowalls. By utilizing a rapid heating and rapid cooling process, the formation of 3D nanowalls with a height of approximately 150 nm standing perpendicularly on top of the substrate can be achieved. The combination of core-shell colloidal quantum dots (QDs) with three different emission wavelengths and 3D WS2 nanowalls further improves the performance of WS2-based photodetector devices, including a photocurrent enhancement of 320-470% and shorter response time. The significant results of the core-shell QD-WS2 hybrid devices can be contributed by the high nonradiative energy transfer efficiency between core-shell QDs and the nanostructured material, which is caused by the spectral overlap between the emission of core-shell QDs and the absorption of WS2. Besides, outstanding NO2 gas-sensing performance of core-shell QDs/WS2 devices can be achieved with an extremely low detection limit of 50 ppb and a fast response time of 26.8 s because of local p-n junctions generated by p-type 3D WS2 nanowalls and n-type core-shell CdSe-ZnS QDs. Our work successfully reveals the energy transfer phenomenon in core-shell QD-WS2 hybrid devices and shows great potential in commercial multifunctional sensing applications.

Abstract
The presence of two-dimensional (2D) layer-stacking heterostructures that can efficiently tune the interface properties by stacking desirable materials provides a platform to investigate some physical phenomena, such as the proximity effect and magnetic exchange coupling. Here, we report the observation of antisymmetric magnetoresistance in a van der Waals (vdW) antiferromagnetic/ferromagnetic (AFM/FM) heterostructure of MnPS3/Fe3GeTe2 when the temperature is below the Neel temperature of MnPS3. Distinguished from two resistance states in conventional giant magnetoresistance, the magnetoresistance in the MnPS3/Fe3GeTe2 heterostructure exhibits three states, of high, intermediate, and low resistance. This antisymmetric magnetoresistance spike is determined by an unsynchronized magnetic switching between the AFM/FM interface layer and the bulk of Fe3GeTe2 during magnetization reversal. Our work highlights that the artificial vdW stacking structure holds potential to explore some physical phenomena and spintronic device applications.

Abstract
The rechargeable aluminum-ion battery (AIB) is a promising candidate for next-generation high-performance batteries, but its cathode materials require more development to improve their capacity and cycling life. We have demonstrated the growth of MoSe2 three-dimensional helical nanorod arrays on a polyimide substrate by the deposition of Mo helical nanorod arrays followed by a low-temperature plasma-assisted selenization process to form novel cathodes for AIBs. The binder-free 3D MoSe2-based AIB shows a high specific capacity of 753 mAh g-1 at a current density of 0.3 A g-1 and can maintain a high specific capacity of 138 mAh g-1 at a current density of 5 A g-1 with 10 000 cycles. Ex situ Raman, XPS, and TEM characterization results of the electrodes under different states confirm the reversible alloying conversion and intercalation hybrid mechanism during the discharge and charge cycles. All possible chemical reactions were proposed by the electrochemical curves and characterization. Further exploratory works on interdigital flexible AIBs and stretchable AIBs were demonstrated, exhibiting a steady output capacity under different bending and stretching states. This method provides a controllable strategy for selenide nanostructure-based AIBs for use in future applications of energy-storage devices in flexible and wearable electronics.

Abstract
Aluminum-sulfur batteries (ASBs) have attracted substantial interest due to their high theoretical specific energy density, low cost, and environmental friendliness, while the traditional sulfur cathode and ionic liquid have very fast capacity decay, limiting cycling performance because of the sluggishly electrochemical reaction and side reactions with the electrolyte. Herein, we demonstrate, for the first time, excellent rechargeable aluminum-selenium batteries (ASeBs) using a new deep eutectic solvent, thiourea-AlCl3, as an electrolyte and Se nanowires grown directly on a flexible carbon cloth substrate (Se NWs@CC) by a low-temperature selenization process as a cathode. Selenium (Se) is a chemical analogue of sulfur with higher electronic conductivity and lower ionization potential that can improve the battery kinetics on the sluggishly electrochemical reaction and the reduction of the polarization where the thiourea-AlCl3 electrolyte can stabilize the side reaction during the reversible conversion reaction of Al-Se alloying processes during the charge-discharge process, yielding a high specific capacity of 260 mAh g-1 at 50 mA g-1 and a long cycling life of 100 times with a high Coulombic efficiency of nearly 93% at 100 mA g-1. The working mechanism based on the reversible conversion reaction of the Al-Se alloying processes, confirmed by the ex situ Raman, XRD, and XPS measurements, was proposed. This work provides new insights into the development of rechargeable aluminum-chalcogenide (S, Se, and Te) batteries.

Abstract
Three-dimensional (3D) CuO/TiO2 hybrid heterostructure nanorod arrays (NRs) with noble-metal-free composition, fabricated by template-assisted low-cost processes, were used as the photo-Fenton-like catalyst for dye degradation. Here, CuO NRs were deposited into anodic aluminum oxide templates by electrodeposition method annealed at various temperatures, followed by deposition of TiO2 thin films through E-gun evaporation, resulting in the formation of CuO/TiO2 p-n heterojunction. The distribution of elements and compositions of the CuO/TiO2 p-n heterojunction were analyzed by EDS mapping and EELS profiles, respectively. In the presence of H2O2, CuO/TiO2 hybrid structure performed more efficiently than CuO NRs for Rhodamine B degradation under the irradiation of 500-W mercury-xenon arc lamp. This study demonstrated the effect of length of CuO NRs, on the photo-degradation performance of CuO NRs as well as CuO/TiO2 heterostructure. The optimized CuO/TiO2 hybrid NR array structure exhibited the highest photo-degradation activity, and the mechanism and role of photo-Fenton acting as the catalyst in photo-degradation of dye was also investigated.

Abstract
One or a few layers of van der Waals (vdW) materials are promising for applications in nanoscale electronics. Established properties include high mobility in graphene, a large direct gap in monolayer MoS2, the quantum spin Hall effect in monolayer WTe2 and so on. These exciting properties arise from electron quantum confinement in the two-dimensional limit. Here, we use angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to reveal directional massless Dirac fermions due to one-dimensional confinement of carriers in the layered vdW material NbSi0.45Te2. The one-dimensional directional massless Dirac fermions are protected by non-symmorphic symmetry, and emerge from a stripe-like structural modulation with long-range translational symmetry only along the stripe direction as we show using scanning tunnelling microscopy. Our work not only provides a playground for investigating further the properties of directional massless Dirac fermions, but also introduces a unique component with one-dimensional long-range order for engineering nano-electronic devices based on heterostructures of vdW materials.

Abstract
In this study, biomass of rice straw (RS) and wood (WD) and their torrefied biomass (RST and WDT) were used as solid biofuel (SBF) for co-firing individually with coal in a commercial continuous chain-grate steam boiler system, which was conducted at fixed input rate of heating value of mixture of SBF and coal and at fixed airflow rate. The effects of key system parameters on the gaseous and particulate pollutions and ash were examined. These include SBF type and blending ratio (RBL) of biomass (i.e., SBF) in the mixture of coal and biomass based on heating values for co-firing.The results indicated that wood, which possesses high heating value while less amount of ash, is more suitable for co-firing with coal than rice straw. Torrefaction can increase the heating value of biomass and homogenize its property, being beneficial to co-firing. Also, torrefaction can decompose the hydroxyl group of biomass, which makes biomass tending to possess hydrophobicity. This, in turn, helps the storage and transportation of biomass. Generally, adding the RS (with RBL = 5-10%), WD (2-15%), RST (2-10%) and WDT (2-20%), respectively, with coal decreases the emissions of NOx and SO2, but increases that of CO (except RST). The emission of HCl is little. The addition of biomass also increases the emission of fine particulate matters (PM) especially PM2.5 in the flue gases, raising PM2.5/PM100 from 34.87 to 78.35 wt.% (Case 50%WDT). These emissions for the Cases tested satisfy with Taiwanese emission standards of stationary sources which set limitations of NOx, SO2, CO and HCl < 350, 300, 2000 and 80 ppmv, while PM < 50 mg/m3, respectively. The results support the use of RS, WD, RST and WDT for co-firing with coal.Implications: This study examined the suitability of using solid bio-fuels to co-fire with coal in an industrial chain-grate steam boiler system with a capacity of 100 kW, in order to achieve carbon-free emissions. Both biomass and torrefied biomass of solid bio-fuel were tested. The findings would be useful for proper design and rational operation of solid bio-fuel/coal co-firing combustion matching the appeal of sustainable material management and circular economy of biomass, and of adaptation of global warming induced by greenhouse gases. It also provides information for policy-makers to promote the co-firing application of biomass and related bio-waste materials.

Abstract
Summary Chiari malformation type Ⅰ(CMI) is a disorder characterized by tonsilla cerebelli herniating into an underdeveloped posterior cranial fossa, hearing loss is often covered by more striking neurological symptoms. Hearing loss in this syndrome is not specific in terms of gender side, degree, age of onset, and progression. The hearing improvement after posterior fossa decompression is controversial on the basis of literature, while satisfactory result was obtained after cochlear implantation in the patient reported here, who was diagnosed as CMI with hearing loss as the main symptom. Therefore, after ensuring the integrity of the auditory pathway, cochlear implantation may be considered in CMI patients with bilateral severe or profound without other severe neurological symptoms.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinases are important for many cellular processes and disruption of their regulation is a factor in diseases like cancer, therefore they are a major target of anticancer drugs. There are many ways to measure tyrosine kinase activity in cells by monitoring endogenous substrate phosphorylation, or by using peptide substrates and incubating them with cell lysates containing active kinases. However, most of these strategies rely on antibodies and/or are limited in how accurately they model the intracellular environment. In cases in which activity needs to be measured in cells, but endogenous substrates are not known and/or suitable phosphospecific antibodies are not available, cell-deliverable peptide substrates can be an alternative and can provide information on activation and inhibition of kinases in intact, live cells. In this chapter, we review this methodology and provide a protocol for measuring Abl kinase activity in human cells using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) with a generic antiphosphotyrosine antibody for detection.

Abstract
Semiconductor heterostructures have enabled numerous applications in diodes, photodetectors, junction field-effect transistors, and memory devices. Two-dimensional (2D) materials and III-V compound semiconductors are two representative materials providing excellent heterojunction platforms for the fabrication of heterostructure devices. The marriage between these semiconductors with completely different crystal structures may enable a new heterojunction with unprecedented physical properties. In this study, we demonstrate a multifunctional heterostructure device based on 2D black phosphorus and n-InGaAs nanomembrane semiconductors that exhibit gate-tunable, photoresponsive, and programmable diode characteristics. The device exhibits clear rectification with a large gate-tunable forward current, which displays rectification and switching with a maximum rectification ratio of 4600 and an on/off ratio exceeding 105, respectively. The device also offers nonvolatile memory properties, including large hysteresis and stable retention of storage charges. By combining the memory and gate-tunable rectifying properties, the rectification ratio of the device can be controlled and memorized from 0.06 to 400. Moreover, the device can generate three different electrical signals by combining a photoresponsivity of 0.704 A/W with the gate-tunable property, offering potential applications, for example, multiple logic operator. This work presents a heterostructure design based on 2D and III-V compound semiconductors, showing unique physical properties for the development of multifunctional heterostructure devices.

Abstract
Doping nonmetal atoms into layered transition metal dichalcogenide MX2 structures has emerged as a promising strategy for enhancing their catalytic activities for the hydrogen evolution reaction. In this study, we developed a new and efficient one-step approach that involves simultaneous plasma-induced doping and exfoliating of MX2 bulk into nanosheets-such as MoSe2, WSe2, MoS2, and WS2 nanosheets-within a short time and at a low temperature (ca. 80 °C). Specifically, by utilizing active plasma that is generated with an asymmetric electrical field during the electrochemical reaction at the surface of the submerged cathode tip, we are able to achieve doping of nitrogen atoms, from the electrolytes, into the semiconducting 2H-MX2 structures during their exfoliation process from the bulk states, forming N-doped MX2. We selected N-doped MoS2 nanosheets for demonstrating their catalytic hydrogen evolution potential. We modulated the electronic and transport properties of the MoS2 structure with the synergy of nitrogen doping and exfoliating for enhancing their catalytic activity. We found that the nitrogen concentration of 5.2 atom % at N-doped MoS2 nanosheets have an excellent catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction, where a low overpotential of 164 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and a small Tafel slope of 71 dec mV-1-much lower than those of exfoliated MoS2 nanosheets (207 mV, 82 dec mV-1) and bulk MoS2 (602 mV, 198 dec mV-1)-as well as an extraordinary long-term stability of >25 h in 0.5 M H2SO4 can be achieved.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the therapeutic effect of Jin Long Capsule (JLC) combined with neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the invasive breast cancer, and to explore the mechanism of JLC in inhibiting multidrug resistance of breast cancer. Methods: 200 patients were divided into experimental group and control group (100 cases per group). The control group used TEC regimen for neoadjuvant chemotherapy. And the experimental group was treated with TEC regimen combined with oral JLC. According to the Miller & Payne grading system (MP), the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy was evaluated based on histopathological changes of breast cancer after neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Adverse effect was evaluated according to the classification criteria of the National Cancer Institute of the United States-The Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) version 3.0. The expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), glutathione thiol transferase (GST)-π and topoisomerase Ⅱα (TopoⅡα) in breast cancer tissues before and after neoadjuvant chemotherapy were detected by immunohistochemical staining. Results: There were 83 effective cases (83%) in the experimental group, which was higher than that in the control group (65.0%, P<0.05). The incidence of leukopenia, gastrointestinal reactions and alopecia in grade 3 to 4 of the experimental group were lower than those of the control group (all P<0.05). The positive rates of P-gp, GST-π and TopoⅡα expression in the control group were 65.0% (65/100), 61.0% (61/100) and 69.0% (69/100), respectively, and they were 80.6% (75/93), 78.5% (73/93) and 37.6% (35/93) after chemotherapy. The positive rates of P-gp and GST-π expression were significantly higher than those before chemotherapy (both P<0.05), whereas the positive rate of TopoⅡα expression was significantly lower than that before chemotherapy (P<0.05). In the experimental group, the positive rates of P-gp, GST-π and TopoⅡα expression before chemotherapy were 62.0% (62/100), 63.0% (63/100) and 69.0% (69/100), respectively, while after chemotherapy, they were 68.2% (60/88), 67.0% (59/88) and 63.6% (56/88). There was no significant difference in the positive rates and expression intensity of P-gp, GST-π and TopoⅡα before and after the chemotherapy (P>0.05). Conclusion: Jin Long Capsule (JLC) can inhibit multidrug resistance, improve the efficacy of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and reduce adverse reactions of breast cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To develop and verify a CMOS bone-guided cochlear implant (BGCI) microsystem with electrodes placed on the bone surface of the cochlea and the outside of round window for treating high-frequency hearing loss. METHODS The BGCI microsystem consists of an external unit and an implanted unit. The external system-on-chip is designed to process acoustic signals through an acquisition circuit and an acoustic DSP processor to generate stimulation patterns and commands that are transmitted to the implanted unit through a 13.56 MHz wireless power and bidirectional data telemetry. In the wireless power telemetry, a voltage doubler/tripler (2X/3X) active rectifier is used to enhance the power conversion efficiency and generate 2 and 3 V output voltages. In the wireless data telemetry, phase-locked loop based binary phase-shift keying and load-shift keying modulators/demodulators are adopted for the downlink and uplink data through high-Q coils, respectively. The implanted chip with four-channel high-voltage-tolerant stimulator generates biphasic stimulation currents up to 800 μA. RESULTS Electrical tests on the fabricated BGCI microsystem have been performed to verify the chip functions. The in vivo animal tests in guinea pigs have shown the evoked third wave of electrically evoked auditory brainstem response waveforms. It is verified that auditory nerves can be successfully stimulated and acoustic hearing can be partially preserved. CONCLUSION AND SIGNIFICANCE Different from traditional cochlear implants, the proposed BGCI microsystem is less invasive, preserves partially acoustic hearing, and provides an effective alternative for treating high-frequency hearing loss.

Abstract
Resistance to chemotherapy can occur through a wide variety of mechanisms. Resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) often arises from kinase mutations-however, "off-target" resistance occurs but is poorly understood. Previously, we established cell line resistance models for three TKIs used in chronic myeloid leukemia treatment, and found that resistance was not attributed entirely to failure of kinase inhibition. Here, we performed global, integrated proteomic and transcriptomic profiling of these cell lines to describe mechanisms of resistance at the protein and gene expression level. We used whole transcriptome sequencing and SWATH-based data-independent acquisition mass spectrometry (DIA-MS), which does not require isotopic labels and provides quantitative measurements of proteins in a comprehensive, unbiased fashion. The proteomic and transcriptional data were correlated to generate an integrated understanding of the gene expression and protein alterations associated with TKI resistance. We defined mechanisms of resistance and two novel markers, CA1 and alpha-synuclein, that were common to all TKIs tested. Resistance to all of the TKIs was associated with oxidative stress responses, hypoxia signatures, and apparent metabolic reprogramming of the cells. Metabolite profiling and glucose-dependence experiments showed that resistant cells had routed their metabolism through glycolysis (particularly through the pentose phosphate pathway) and exhibited disruptions in mitochondrial metabolism. These experiments are the first to report a global, integrated proteomic, transcriptomic, and metabolic analysis of TKI resistance. These data suggest that although the mechanisms are complex, targeting metabolic pathways along with TKI treatment may overcome pan-TKI resistance.

Abstract
A facile approach for the synthesis of Au- and Pt-decorated CuInS2 nanocrystals (CIS NCs) as sensitizer materials on the top of MoS2 bilayers is demonstrated. A single surfactant (oleylamine) is used to prepare such heterostructured noble metal decorated CIS NCs from the pristine CIS. Such a feasible way to synthesize heterostructured noble metal decorated CIS NCs from the single surfactant can stimulate the development of the functionalized heterostructured NCs in large scale for practical applications such as solar cells and photodetectors. Photodetectors based on MoS2 bilayers with the synthesized nanocrystals display enhanced photocurrent, almost 20-40 times higher responsivity and the On/Off ratio is enlarged one order of magnitude compared with the pristine MoS2 bilayers-based photodetectors. Remarkably, by using Pt- or Au-decorated CIS NCs, the photocurrent enhancement of MoS2 photodetectors can be tuned between blue (405 nm) to green (532 nm). The strategy described here acts as a perspective to significantly improve the performance of MoS2 -based photodetectors with the controllable absorption wavelengths in the visible light range, showing the feasibility of the possible color detection.
