Simultaneous removal of methylene blue and Cd(II) by pecan shell–based activated carbon: adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and physicochemical characterization

The coexistence of organic dyes and heavy metals in wastewater requires efficient and sustainable adsorbents capable of simultaneous contaminant removal. In this study, pecan shell–based activated carbons (PSC-0–PSC-3) were prepared by KOH activation using different impregnation...

Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Pediatric Patients With Long QT Syndrome: A Korean Multicenter Cohort Study

This multicenter nationwide cohort study comprehensively analyzed the clinical features, genetic architecture, and outcomes of Korean pediatric patients with long QT syndrome (LQTS).Prolonged QT intervals, fetal arrhythmia, and LQT2/3 genotypes compared to LQT1 were independent r...

TMEM135 deficiency prevents intestinal lipid accumulation by coordinating lipid uptake and oxidation through ELOVL6-mediated PPARα activation

Abstract Excessive lipid accumulation impairs digestion and gastrointestinal function. Transmembrane protein 135 (TMEM135) is involved in lipid metabolism of various tissues. Here, TMEM135 deficiency increased intestinal lipid absorption through ELOVL6-dependent oleoylethanolamid...

Doxorubicin-Incorporated Nanoparticles Composed of Ce6-Conjugated Hyaluronic Acid-b-poly(ethylene glycol) Copolymer for Overcoming Doxorubicin Resistance of Breast Cancer Cells

Oxidative stress in the tumor microenvironment, which is its own intrinsic property, is frequently utilized to deal with the drug-targeting issue in the nanoparticle drug delivery system. For this purpose, reactive oxygen species (ROS)-sensitive nanoparticles encapsulating doxoru...
