Especially, a 1% wt boron-modified cathode delivers a discharge capacity of 211.99 mA h g-1 in the potential range of 3.0-4.3 V at 0.2 C and excellent cycle life with a capacity retention of 89.43% after 200 cycles at 1 C.The GRACE risk score estimates in-hospital and 6-month mortality for patients with acute coronary syndromes.Nearly half of human cancers harbor p53 mutations, and mutant p53 (mutp53) promotes carcinogenesis, metastasis, tumor recurrence and chemoresistance. Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamateammonium mutp53 is observed in 30% of breast carcinomas, including triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), and thus mutp53 is a promising target for treatment of TNBC. In this study, we investigated the effect of a phosphatidylinositide 3 kinase/mammalian target of rapamycin dual inhibitor, NVP-BEZ235 (BEZ235), on two TNBC cell lines with mutp53 MDA-MB-231 and MDA-MB-468. Cell growth, migration and colony-formation abilities were detected by 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-tetrazolium bromide, scratch assay, transwell and soft agar assay, revealing that BEZ235 can inhibit the growth, migration and colony-formation abilities of TNBC cells. In addition, BEZ235 caused degradation of mutp53 in these cells. We investigated the underlying mechanism by inhibiting proteasome function using MG132 and inhibiting autophagy using 3-methyladenine and shRNAs. We observed that BEZ235 may induce autophagy through repression of the Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin signaling pathway. The observed interplay between mutp53 and autophagy in TNBC cells was examined further by knockdown of ATG5 and ATG7, revealing that degradation of mutp53 induced by BEZ235 may be independent of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and autophagy mediated by ATG5 and ATG7. Moreover, we found evidence of positive feedback between mutp53 and autophagy in TNBC cells. In conclusion, BEZ235 may exert antitumor effects against TNBC cells by targeting mutp53, and this may have implications for the development of future therapies. © 2020 The Authors.

METHODS AND RESULTS Patients (128) with LVAD were recruited from the University Department for Cardiac Surgery at Heart Center, Leipzig, Germany. A healthy control group (HC, n = 113) was included. Dental behaviour was assessed with a standardized questionnaire, and to evaluate oral health-related quality of life, the German short form of oral health impact profile was applied. The presence of decayed, missing, and filled teeth; dental treatment need; periodontitis severity; and periodontal treatment need were assessed. These findings were correlated to disease-related and device-related factors. The minority of patients used aids for interdental hygiene (16.4%). For the LVAD patients, a German short form of oral health impact profile sum score of 4.96 ± 8.67 [0.5; 0-6] was assessed. The LVAD group suffered from more missing teeth (11.91 ± 9.13 vs. 3.70 ± 3.77; P less then 0.01) than HC. More severe periodontitis was found in LVAD group (LVAD = 41.4% and HC = 27.4%; P less then 0.01). Periodontal treatment need was high in both groups, without a significant difference (LVAD = 84.4% vs. HC = 86.7%; P = 0.71). LVAD therapy as bridge to transplantation was correlated with periodontal treatment need (odds ratio = 11.48 [1.27; 103.86]; P = 0.03). Further correlations between treatment need and disease specific factors were not detected. CONCLUSIONS Patients with LVAD suffer from a high periodontal treatment need and a lack in oral behaviour. Interdisciplinary special care concepts appear recommendable to improve oral health in LVAD patients. © 2020 The Authors.

In this study, we investigated the histology and pathophysiology of the SCI milieu in a rat model and found that areas of hypoxia were unevenly interspersed in compressed SCI. With this new knowledge, we generated embryonic neural stem cells (NSCs) expressing basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) under the regulation of five hypoxia-responsive elements (5HRE) using a lentiviral vector (LV-5HRE-bFGF-NSCs) to specifically target these hypoxic loci. SCI models treated with bFGF expressed by the LV-5HRE-bFGF-NSCs viral vector demonstrated improved recovery, increased neuronal survival, and inhibited autophagy in spinal cord lesions in the rat model due to the reversal of hypoxic conditions at day 42 after injury. Furthermore, improved functional restoration of SCI with neuron regeneration was achieved in vivo, accompanied by glial scar inhibition and the evidence of axon regeneration across the scar boundary. This is the first study to illustrate the presence of hypoxic clusters throughout the injury site of compressed SCI and the first to show that the transplantation of LV-5HRE-bFGF-NSCs to target this hypoxic microenvironment enhanced the recovery of neurological function after SCI in rats; LV-5HRE-bFGF-NSCs may therefore be a good candidate to evaluate cellular SCI therapy in humans. © 2020 The Authors.

A record solar cell efficiency of 9.50 % under 0.1 sun with an electrode spacing of 1.5 μm is attained in lateral single-crystal perovskite materials. Moreover, successful integration for high-source-power-generation interdigitated electrode units patterned in series (1×4), parallel (4×1), and combination (4 series×4 parallel) configurations is devised and affords maximum efficiencies of 7.99, 8.19, and 7.96 %, respectively. Additionally, the cell performances under various illumination intensities (0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 sun) to mimic daily sunshine angles and an indoor environment at 1000 lux are elucidated for which short-circuit current (JSC ) values (19.60 mA cm-2 and η=7.43 %) under 1.0 sun and a significant efficiency of 8.13 % under indoor conditions are obtained. This work represents a significant step towards next-generation, efficient, lateral photovoltaics for possible module integration.
