Subtractive transformation of cathode materials in spent Li-ion batteries to a low-cobalt 5 V-class cathode material

Direct recycling or upcycling is promising for sustainable battery resource management. Here, the authors report a subtractive transformation strategy for upcycling spent cathode materials to high-performance 5 V-class cathodes, reducing reliance on rare elements for the sustainable Li-ion battery industry.

Circular RNA-mediated inverse prime editing in human cells

Prime editors are restricted to performing precise edits downstream of cleavage sites. Here, authors develop helicase-assisted circular RNA-mediated inverse PEs (ciPEs) to increase editing efficiencies at previously challenging genomic sites, expanding the scope of precise genome editing.

Direct recycling of spent cathode material at ambient conditions via spontaneous lithiation

Direct recycling can facilitate the sustainable management of end-of-life spent cathodes, but is hindered by the harsh operation conditions required. An spontaneous lithiation strategy enables direct recycling of spent cathode material at ambient conditions, with clear economic and environmental benefits.

An oncohistone-driven H3.3K27M/CREB5/ID1 axis maintains the stemness and malignancy of diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma

Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG) is driven by H3K27M oncohistones, but the exact related mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, the authors identify an H3.3K27M oncohistone-driven CREB5/ID1 axis that promotes transcriptional changes and progression in DIPG, which could represent a potential therapeutic target.

An in-situ peptide-antibody self-assembly to block CD47 and CD24 signaling enhances macrophage-mediated phagocytosis and anti-tumor immune responses

Blockade of CD47/SIRPα and CD24/Siglec-10 pathways can promote macrophage-mediated phagocytosis of tumor cells. Here the authors report the design of a peptide-antibody combo-supramolecular in situ assembled CD47 and CD24 bi-target inhibitor that enhances the phagocytic ability of macrophages and improves response to anti-PD-1 in preclinical cancer models.

Concerning the stability of seawater electrolysis: a corrosion mechanism study of halide on Ni-based anode

It is known that chloride anions cause severe anode corrosion during seawater electrolysis. Here we found that bromide in seawater is even more harmful to Ni-based anodes, causing the spalling of the catalyst layer and the formation of shallow-wide pits on the substrate, leading to performance degradation.
