Abstract
Disrupting the integrity of the sp2-carbon skeleton offers an effective strategy to create active sites for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). In this work, fullerene (C70) molecules, composed of 12 pentagons and 25 hexagons all bonded by sp2-C atoms, are assembled into microrods (C70MRs) at the liquid-liquid interface and then broken down by calcination to generate metal-free fullerene-derived ORR electrocatalysts. The effect of the pyrolysis temperature on C70MRs is investigated, and it is found that pyrolysis at 900 °C effectively unfolds the C70 cages and converts them into a highly porous, defect-rich carbon material (C70MRs-900) with the rod-shaped morphology well-retained. These structural features endow C70MRs-900 with outstanding ORR activity and stability together with remarkable methanol tolerance, better than C70MRs annealed at either lower (800 °C) or higher (1000 °C) temperatures. Furthermore, nitrogen atoms are successfully incorporated into the defective carbon skeleton by annealing C70MRs at 900 °C in the presence of NH4Cl. The resultant N-doped C70MRs-900 exhibits remarkable ORR performance with a half-wave potential of 0.836 V, comparable to that of the commercial 20% Pt/C catalyst. This work presents a simple and effective route of utilizing fullerene molecules as starting materials to develop high-performance metal-free, carbon-based electrocatalysts toward the ORR and even beyond.

Abstract
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 4 (MAP3K4) is a multifunctional mediator of the conserved MAPK signaling pathway that plays essential roles in the regulation of immune responses in mammals. However, the function of teleost MAP3K4s in innate immunity, especially in the intestinal immune system, is still poorly understood. In the current study, we identified a fish MAP3K4 homolog (CiMAP3K4) in Ctenopharyngodon idella as well as its immune function in intestine following bacterial infection in vivo and in vitro. The open reading frame (ORF) of CiMAP3K4 encodes putative peptide of 1544 amino acids containing a predicted serine/threonine protein kinase (S_TKc) domain with high identity with other fish MAP3K4s. Phylogenetic analysis revealed the CiMAP3K4 belonged to the fish cluster and showed the closest relationship to Pimephales promelas. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis revealed that CiMAP3K4 transcripts were widely distributed in all tested tissues, especially with high expression in the muscle and intestine of healthy grass carp. In vitro, CiMAP3K4 gene expression was upregulated by bacterial PAMPs (lipolysaccharide (LPS), peptidoglycan (PGN), L-Ala-γ-D-Glu-meso-diaminopimelic acid (Tri-DAP) and muramyl dipeptide (MDP)) and pathogens (Aeromonas hydrophila and Aeromonas veronii) in primary intestinal cells. In vivo, the mRNA expression levels of CiMAP3K4 in the intestine were significantly induced by bacterial MDP challenge in a time-dependent manner; however, this effect could be inhibited by the bioactive dipeptides β-alanyl-l-histidine (carnosine) and alanyl-glutamine (Ala-Gln). Moreover, CiMAP3K4 was located primarily in the cytoplasm, and its overexpression increased the transcriptional activity of AP-1 in HEK293T cells. Collectively, these results suggested that CiMAP3K4 might play an important role in the intestinal immune response to bacterial infections, which paves the way for a better understanding of the intestinal immune system of grass carp.

Abstract
Cu2+ plays a decisive role for the bio-oxidation in the active center of laccase. In the fermentation-purified process, the loss of Cu2+ reduces the activity and the high cost limits the application of laccase. In this study, a fermentation-permeabilization combined process were developed which based on the regulation of Cu2+ binding time to produce the permeabilized-cells containing laccase, in which Cu2+ can enter the cells freely to greatly improve the laccase activity and reduce the immobilization cost by about 19 times. So, the permeabilized-cells is suitable for biodegradation of antibiotic pollution in the environment, which was applied for the biodegradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and tetracycline-HCl (TCH) and the degradation efficiency reached 95.42% and 98.73%, respectively, with low ecotoxicity of the degradation products. Finally, the degradation mechanism was analyzed theoretically by molecular docking. Therefore, this study provided a low-cost, eco-friendly, and widely applicable method for organic pollutants removal.

Abstract
The ability of laccase to oxidize polyphenols arouses our interest that laccase can be applied for protein-polyphenol cross-linking. In this study, laccase promoted the cross-linking of gallic acid (GA) and soy protein isolate (SPI) under neutral pH. SPI-GA complexes changed the secondary structures with a decrease in β-fold and an increase in α-helix and β-turn. The free-radical scavenging activity and reducing power determination results suggested that GA elevated the SPI antioxidant activity significantly. Specifically, DPPH free radical scavenging rate and ABTS free radical scavenging ability increased almost 5- and 1.5-fold compared with unmodified SPI, respectively. Moreover, the reducing power had more than 3-fold compared to the SPI control. This study provided a novel enzyme-induced approach to modulate the physicochemical properties of SPI binding polyphenol.

Abstract
Testosterone (TS) is a critical androgenic steroid that regulates human metabolism and maintains secondary sexual characteristics. The biotransformation from 4-androstene-3,17-done (4-AD) to TS is limited by the poor catalytic activity of 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 3 (17β-HSD3). Herein, we explored the structural characteristics and catalytic mechanism of 17β-HSD3 and adopted the rational design strategy to improve its catalytic activity. Molecular docking and molecular dynamics simulations revealed the substrate-binding pocket and the binding mode of 4-AD to 17β-HSD3. We located the pivotal residues and regulated their hydrophobicity and polarity. The obtained G186R/Y195W variant formed additional electrostatic interaction and hydrogen bond with 4-AD, increasing the binding affinity between the variant and 4-AD. Therefore, the G186R/Y195W variant produced 3.98 g/L of TS, which increased to 297%. The combination of structural and mechanism resolution drives the implementation of the rational design strategy, which provides guidance for bioproduction of TS catalyzed by 17β-HSD3.

Abstract
β-Farnesene can replace petroleum products as specialty fuel to solve the global fuel energy crisis, but its production by Escherichia coli (E.coli) using glucose and isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) is costly. Hence, we developed a new strategy to produce β-farnesene by engineered E.coli strain F13 with bifunctional utilization of whey powder. The utilization of whey powder as a substrate ensured the growth of the strain F13, while whey powder could also replace IPTG to induce the production of β-farnesene. In shake flasks, β-farnesene production reached 2.41 g/L by the bifunctional utilization of whey powder as a substrate and inducer, 65.1% higher than that with IPTG and glucose. In the 7 L bioreactor, β-farnesene production reached 4.74 g/L using whey powder, which was 197% of that in shake flasks. Therefore, this new strategy might be an attractive route to broaden the applications of whey powder and achieve the economical production of β-farnesene.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis is a prevalent degenerative joint disease characterized by progressive articular cartilage loss and destruction. The resultant increase in friction causes severe pain. The collagen I matrix (COL I) has been used clinically for cartilage repair; however, how COL I acts at cartilage surfaces is unclear. Here, we studied adsorption and lubrication of synovial fluid components, albumin, γ-globulin, and the phospholipid DPPC, on COL I under physiological conditions using surface plasmon resonance and an in situ sensing surface force apparatus. Our results revealed COL I had poor lubrication ability, a fairly high coefficient of friction (COF, μ = 0.651 ± 0.013), and surface damage under a 7 mN load. DPPC formed an improved lubricating layer on COL I (μ = 0.072 ± 0.016). In sharp contrast, albumin and γ-globulin exhibited poor lubrication with an order of magnitude higher COF but still provided benefits by protecting COL I from wear. Hence, DPPC on COL I may help optimize COL I implantation design.

Abstract
Tungsten carbide (W2C) has emerged as a potential alternative to noble-metal catalysts toward hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) owing to its Pt-like electronic configuration. However, unsatisfactory activity, dilatory electron transfer, and inefficient synthesizing methods, especially for nanoscale particles, have severely hindered its large-scale applications. Herein, a novel heterostructure composed of W2C and tungsten phosphide (WP) embedded in nitrogen-decorated carbon (W2C/WP@NC) was constructed as an efficient HER electrocatalyst. The as-prepared W2C/WP@NC catalyst exhibits remarkable electrocatalytic activity and robust durability toward HER both in acids and bases. More notably, the W2C/WP@NC catalyst demonstrates low overpotentials of 116.37 and 196.2 mV to afford a current density of 10 mA cm-2 and reveals slight potential decays of about 6.4 and 7.64% over 12 h continuous operation in bases and acids, respectively. The overall water-splitting performance was further evaluated using the W2C/WP@NC catalyst as the cathode and commercial RuO2 as the anode in an electrolyzer, which can realize an overall current density of 10 mA cm-2 and maintain long durability of more than 12 h with a small cell voltage of 1.723 V. This work opens up new opportunities for exploring cost-efficient electrocatalysts in sustainable energy conversion.

Abstract
In this article, meso-tetrakis (4-carboxyphenyl) porphyrins modified with different amino acids were designed, synthesized, and researched. The chiral self-assembly behavior of these porphyrin-amino acid molecules can be precisely controlled by adjusting the pH, constituent amino acids, and temperature, thereby giving rise to chiral nanostructures with precisely tailored helical pitch and handedness. This research provides a certain reference for the design and preparation of chiral nanomaterials and has potential application prospects in chiral resolution and chiral catalysis.

Abstract
In this study, the biodegradation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in soil washing solution containing Tween 80 was conducted using native mixed bacteria (Pseudomonas sp. Z1, Sphingobacterium sp. Z2, and Klebsiella sp. K) embedded in polyvinyl alcohol-sodium alginate-nano alumina (PVA-SA-ALNPs) gel beads. The optimal dosage of immobilized beads and embedded biomass for the biodegradation of phenanthrene (PHE), fluoranthene (FLU), and pyrene (PYR) were 10 % (v/v) and 20 % (v/v), respectively. SEM analysis showed that the porous structure of the immobilized beads was a cross-linked network with abundant pores that provided many potential adhesion sites for microorganisms. The beads with the immobilized mixed bacteria maintained a high activity during batch experiments and could even be reused for 3 cycles (90 d). Compared with the beads containing individual immobilized strain, the immobilized mixed bacteria showed a more efficient biodegradation of PHE (91.67 %), FLU (88.6 %), and PYR (88.5 %) in synthetic soil washing effluent within 30 d. The first-order kinetic model suitably described the degradation process of the three target PAHs. By adding Tween 80 to the synthetic eluent, the degradation of PHE, FLU, and PYR increased by 16.39 %, 22.25 %, and 21.29 %, respectively, indicating that Tween 80 promoted PAHs biodegradation, even though it was also rapidly degraded during the reaction cycle. These findings suggest that the developed mixed bacteria embedded in PVA-SA-ALNPs gel beads has great potential for PAHs remediation.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the impact of water pollutants, water levels and meteorological factors on the Oncomelania hupensis density in Eastern Dongting Lake regions, so as to provide insights into schistosomiasis control. METHODS O. hupensis snails were surveyed using a systematic sampling method in snail-infested marshlands in Eastern Dongting Lake regions from 2007 to 2014, and data pertaining to water pollutants, water levels and meteorological factors were collected. The duration of submergence and the date of the start of submergence were calculated. The snail density and its influencing factors were descriptively analyzed, and a linear mixed model was generated to examine the impacts of variables on the snail density. In addition, smooth curves were fitted to investigate the relationship between snail density and variables. RESULTS The snail density appeared a fluctuation in Eastern Dongting Lake regions during the period from 2007 to 2014, with the highest density on October, 2010 (52.79 snails/0.1 m2) and the lowest density on January 2009 (2.15 snails/0.1 m2). Linear mixed-model analysis showed that permanganate index, total phosphorus and the date of the start of submergence affected the snail density (t = 6.386, -2.920 and -3.892, all P values < 0.01). Smooth curve analysis revealed that the associations of the snail density with the permanganate index and total phosphorus appeared an approximately quadratic curve. After the end of April, the earlier date of the start of submergence resulted in a higher snail density. CONCLUSIONS Permenganate index, total phosphorus and the date of the start of submergence affect the O. hupensis snail density in Eastern Dongting Lake regions.

Abstract
Abstract
BACKGROUND
An effective therapeutic method still hasn’t been devised for lethal high grade glioma. Thus, a method with high anti-tumoral efficiency, tumoral targeting, and acceptable side effect needs to be designed. Oncolytic virotherapy which can specifically lyse tumor cells via mass replication and deleting nucleotide metabolism related gene, like TK, required in viral replication and overexpressed in tumor cells, provides hope for patients. However, the virus only contained TK deletion is unable to show sufficient specificity of anti-tumoral response in tumor cells. Here, the adapted strain of vaccinia virus with high tumoral specificity due to TK and RR deletion and FUC1 insertion, named T601, is chosen in this project. In clinical application, intra-tumoral injection showed improved anti-tumoral efficiency and acceptable side effect. However, intra-tumoral viral injection in orthotropic glioma model is rare. In this project, various biosafety and antitumoral efficiency parameter would be tested for confirming the biosafety and reliability of intra-tumoral T601 viral injection for future clinical trials.
MATERIAL AND METHODS
For measuring the IC50 of T601, 10 different amounts of virus was tested in vitro via calculating cell viability with CCK-8(cell counting kit-8). For measuring the further antitumoral response of FCU1, different concentration of the 5-FC was added into the medium with IC50 viral amount. To ensure the biosafety of T601, MTD (maximum tolerance dose) was measured. Based on the MTD result, for evaluating the anti-tumoral efficiency, 106 pfu,105 pfu,104 pfu of virus was intra-tumoral injected in orthotopic GBM bearing mice. Tumor size was measured once a week through in vivo bioimaging system.
RESULTS
0.022 MOI, the IC50 of T601, showed high cytotoxicity of T601. Moreover, the significantly decreased cell viability under the combined treatment of 5-FC and 0.22MOI T601 showed intact anti-tumoral function. In MTD assay, except for 107 group, no significant weight loss was found. However, in 107 pfu group, mean body weight decreased around 10% and animal fatality happened on day 9. According to the MTD result, certain amount of virus was intra-tumorally injected. In all treatment group, the tumor size was significantly shrined. At the same time, the survival rate of mice under viral treatment was significantly extended.
CONCLUSION
In summary, T601 exhibited efficient anti-tumoral function and acceptable side effect. T601 treatment prolonged the survival period of GBM mice with acceptable neurotoxicity, demonstrating that T601 contains necessary criterial for intra-tumoral injection. Ultimately, this project provided basic reference information of dose for future clinical trial.

Abstract
Biofouling represents great challenges in many applications, and zwitterionic peptides have been a promising candidate due to their biocompatibility and excellent antifouling performance. Inspired by lubricin, we designed a loop-like zwitterionic peptide and investigated the effect of conformation (linear or loop) on the antifouling properties using a combination of surface plasma resonance (SPR), surface force apparatus (SFA), and all atomistic molecular dynamics (MD) simulation techniques. Our results demonstrate that the loop-like zwitterionic peptides perform better in resisting the adsorption of proteins and bacteria. SFA measurements show that the loop-like peptides reduce the adhesion between the modified surface and the modeling foulant lysozyme. All atomistic MD simulations reveal that the loop-like zwitterionic peptides are more rigid than the linear-like zwitterionic peptides and avoid the penetration of the terminus into the foulants, which lower the interaction between the zwitterionic peptides and foulants. Besides, the loop-like zwitterionic peptides avoid the aggregation of the chains and bind more water, improving the hydrophilicity and antifouling performance. Altogether, this study provides a more comprehensive understanding of the conformation effect of zwitterionic peptides on their antifouling properties, which may contribute to designing novel antifouling materials in various biomedical applications.
