SiC-Al2O3 hetero-structural nanofibers have been synthesized by the chemical solution approach at 200 ° C. The diameters of nanofibers are in the range of 60-100 nm while the lengths are from tens of micrometers to hundreds of micrometers. The microstructural analysis shows that the fibers possess a like-epitaxial relationship between (104) of hexagonal Al2O3 and (111) of cubic SiC. Additionally, the optical investigation of the nanofibers suggests there are some defects in the low annealing temperature synthesized SiC-Al2O3 nanofibers.
In-band full-duplex (IBFD) is a theoretically effective solution to increase the overall throughput for the future wireless communications system by enabling transmission and reception over the same time-frequency resources. However, reliable source reconstruction remains a great challenge in the practical IBFD systems due to the non-ideal elimination of the self-interference and the inherent limitations of the separate source and channel coding methods. On the other hand, artificial intelligence-enabled semantic communication can provide a viable direction for the optimization of the IBFD system. This article introduces a novel IBFD paradigm with the guidance of semantic communication called semantics-division duplexing (SDD). It utilizes semantic domain processing to further suppress self-interference, distinguish the expected semantic information, and recover the desired sources. Further integration of the digital and semantic domain processing can be implemented so as to achieve intelligent and concise communications. We present the advantages of the SDD paradigm with theoretical explanations and provide some visualized results to verify its effectiveness.
Abstract Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has been huge threaten for people health and finding effective target therapy is urgent and important. WWP2, as one of E3 ubiquitin ligase, is involved in many biological processes by specifically binding to substrates. PARP1 plays a role in cell apoptosis and is considered as a therapeutic target of certain cancers. In this study, we firstly tested WWP2 expression in patients and normal people and analyzed the relationship with clinicopathologic factors. We demonstrated WWP2 was involved in ALL apoptosis and knockout WWP2 alleviated ALL apoptosis induced by Dox in vitro and vivo. WWP2 negatively regulated and interacted with PARP1 in vitro and vivo and WWP2 mechanically degraded PARP1 through polyubiquitin-proteasome pathway. These findings suggested WWP2 played a role in ALL apoptosis and displayed a regulatory pathway of PARP1, which provide a new potential therapeutic target for the treatment of ALL.
Transparent p-type nickel oxide (NiO) thin films have been epitaxially grown on (0001) Al2O3 substrates by a chemical solution method of polymer-assisted deposition for the first time. The films have a high optical transparency of above 95% in the wavelength range of 350-900 nm.
Klarer Schnitt: Für die Titelreaktion wurde O2, das ideale Oxidans, als einziges Oxitationsmittel verwendet. Das Dimerintermediat (siehe Schema) und Isotopenmarkierungsexperimente mit 18O2 konnten teilweise den Reaktionsmechanismus aufklären.

Conductive polymer hydrogels (CPHs) are widely employed in emerging flexible electronic devices because they possess both the electrical conductivity of conductors and the mechanical properties of hydrogels. However, the poor compatibility between conductive polymers and the hydrogel matrix, as well as the swelling behavior in humid environments, greatly compromises the mechanical and electrical properties of CPHs, limiting their applications in wearable electronic devices. Herein, a supramolecular strategy to develop a strong and tough CPH with excellent anti-swelling properties by incorporating hydrogen, coordination bonds, and cation-π interactions between a rigid conducting polymer and a soft hydrogel matrix is reported. Benefiting from the effective interactions between the polymer networks, the obtained supramolecular hydrogel has homogeneous structural integrity, exhibiting remarkable tensile strength (1.63 MPa), superior elongation at break (453%), and remarkable toughness (5.5 MJ m-3 ). As a strain sensor, the hydrogel possesses high electrical conductivity (2.16 S m-1 ), a wide strain linear detection range (0-400%), and excellent sensitivity (gauge factor = 4.1), sufficient to monitor human activities with different strain windows. Furthermore, this hydrogel with high swelling resistance has been successfully applied to underwater sensors for monitoring frog swimming and underwater communication. These results reveal new possibilities for amphibious applications of wearable sensors.
