FT-IR raw data from Highly efficient triazolone/metal ion/polydopamine/MCM-41 sustained release system with pH sensitive for pesticide delivery

MCM-41 was prepared through the sol–gel method and encapsulated by polydopamine (PDA) before coordinated with metal ion to form a highly efficient sustained release system (M-PDA–MCM-41) for triazolone delivery. The characterization results confirmed the existence of the coordination bond between the PDA layer and triazolone through the bridge effect from metal ion, which enhanced the interaction between PDA–MCM-41 and triazolone. The adsorption capacity (AC) of Fe-PDA–MCM-41 increased up to 173 mg g^–1, which was 160% more than that of MCM-41. The sustained release performance of M-PDA–MCM-41 in different pH values was investigated. Under the conditions of pH ≤7, the release speed of triazolone increased with pH decreasing. Whereas its release speed in the weak base condition was slower than in the neutral condition. Therefore, the as-synthesized system showed significant pH-sensitivity in the sustained release process, indicating that the sustained release system can be well stored in the neutral or basic environment and activated in the acid environment. Their sustained release curves described by Korsmeyer–Peppas equation at pH 7 showed the same behaviour, indicating that PDA decoration or metal ion coordination only increases the steric hindrance and the interaction between carrier and triazolone instead of changing the original structure of the pure MCM material in accordance with XRD and BET analysis results

Large Ultrathin Polyoxomolybdate-Decorated Boron Nitride Nanosheets with Enhanced Antibacterial Activity for Infection Control

To address the challenges in bacterial infection for killing germs without using antibiotics, the development of an efficient and safe antibacterial nanomaterial to control severe bacterial infection has become a critical issue. Herein, ionic liquid (IL)-promoted simultaneous exfoliation and conjugation of boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) with ammonium dimolybdate (ADM) are developed. Such an approach provides large ultrathin nanosheets with three to four layers and micron lateral dimensions and facilitates intercalation with a molybdenum (Mo) content of 6.25%. BNNS-IL-ADM provides nanoconfinement inducing capability for sustained release of Mo ions to decelerate the cumulative release rate by 30.45%. BNNS-IL-ADM imparts a superior antibacterial effect especially at a low concentration level of bioactive components, which improves the antibacterial efficiency by 92.00% against Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus in comparison with ADM. The enhanced antibacterial performance is strongly dependent on the synergistic effect between the BN nanocarrier and bioactive ADM, in which the bacterial cell adhesion induced by the inherent hydrophobic property of the BNNS and the nanochannels within BNNS-IL-ADM protecting the bioactive ingredient and achieving a sustained release play significant roles. BNNS-IL-ADM can serve as a safe and efficient antibacterial agent with very low cytotoxicity. Such features offer a feasible strategy for simultaneous exfoliation and functionalization of boron nitride nanosheets as a promising platform for the delivery of bioactive ingredients against bacterial infections

Table_1_Butylphthalide Combined With Conventional Treatment Attenuates MMP-9 Levels and Increases VEGF Levels in Patients With Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study.docx

Background and Purpose: Butylphtalide increases the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and decreases matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in animal models of stroke and might be of use in the management of stroke. To explore whether butylphthalide combined with conventional treatment can change the levels of MMP-9 and VEGF and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores of patients with stroke.Methods: This was a prospective cohort study involving inpatients admitted to the Jiangxi Provincial People's Hospital (January–June 2019) due to acute cerebral infarction. The patients received conventional treatments with or without butylphthalide. The changes in the NIHSS scores were compared between groups. Plasma MMP-9 and VEGF were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results: A total of 24 patients were included in the conventional treatment group and 46 in the butylphthalide group. The butylphthalide group showed lower MMP-9 (130 ± 59 vs. 188 ± 65, p = 0.001) and higher VEGF (441 ± 121 vs. 378 ± 70, p = 0.034) levels on day 6 compared with the conventional treatment group. The changes in MMP-9 and VEGF were significant, starting on day 3 in the butylphthalide group but on day 6 in the conventional treatment group. There were no differences between the two groups in the NIHSS scores at admission and at discharge (p > 0.05). The overall response rate was higher in the butylphthalide group compared with the conventional treatment group (63.0 vs. 37.5%, p = 0.042).Conclusion: Butylphthalide combined with conventional treatment can decrease MMP-9 levels and increase VEGF levels. The patients showed the reduced NIHSS scores, possibly suggesting some improvement in prognosis after stroke. Still, the conclusions need to be confirmed in a larger sample and in different etiological subtypes of stroke.</p

Two Cu(II) and Co(II)-based coordination polymers based on the N,S-mixed donor ligand: structural characterization and anti-endometrial cancer activity

In this study, two new coordination polymers based on Cu(II) and Co(II) ions as the metal nodes, {Cu(3-PPT)2]·H2O}n (1) and {[Co(3-PPT)2]·3CH3OH·H2O}n (2), have been successfully constructed from a pyridine-substituted N-heterocyclic thioamide ligand, namely 3-HPPT (3-HPPT = 4-(3-pyridinyl)-pyrimidine-2-thiol). Furthermore, the treatment activity of complexes 1–2 against HEC-1 endometrial cancer cells was evaluated. First, the CCK-8 assay was performed and the inhibitory effect of compounds 1–2 on HEC-1 cells were determined. Then, the Annexin V-FITC/PI method was performed and the induction activity of the compounds on the cancer cell apoptosis was evaluated. Finally, the PI3K/AKT pathway activation was also measured with western blot.</p
