Scaffold-mediated sustained, non-viral delivery of miR-219/miR-338 promotes CNS remyelination by Milbreta, Ulla, Lin, Junquan, Pinese, Coline, Ong, William, Chin, Jiah Shin, Shirahama, Hitomi, Mi, Ruifa, Williams, Anna, Bechler, Marie E., Wang, Jun, ffrench-Constant, Charles, Hoke, Ahmet, Chew, Sing Yian

“…Using spinal cord injury as a proof-of-concept, we further demonstrate that miR-219/miR-338 could also be delivered non-virally in vivo using an aligned fiber-hydrogel scaffold to enhance remyelination after a hemi-incision injury at C5 level of Sprague-Dawley rats. Specifically, miR-219/miR-338 mimics were incorporated as complexes with the carrier, TransIT-TKO (TKO), together with neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) within hybrid scaffolds that comprised poly(caprolactone-co-ethyl ethylene phosphate) (PCLEEP)-aligned fibers and collagen hydrogel. …”

Amidinato Isopropylmethylamidosilylene-catalyzed hydroboration of carbonyl compounds by Lee, Jiawen, Fan, Jun, Koh, An-Ping, Cheang, Joslyn Wan-Jun, Yang, Ming-Chung, Su, Ming-Der, So, Cheuk-Wai

“…This study describes the use of an amidinato isopropylmethylamidosilylene [LSiN(Me)iPr] (1, L = PhC(NtBu)2) to catalyze hydroboration of carbonyl compounds. Compound 1 (loading: 5 – 10 mol%) was shown to be an efficient catalyst for the chemoselective hydroboration of aldehydes (average yield = 97 %, average TOF = 8.8 h-1) and ketones (average yield = 97 %, average TOF = 1.7 h-1) with pinacolborane (HBpin) in C6D6 at 90 oC to form borate esters. …”

“…Experimental results revealed that the temperature sensitivity of the CSIs was up to 43.13 nm/°C, which was enhanced about 5 times compared to the single NLC SI. The designed optical fiber temperature sensor possessed the merits of compact structure, high stability, ultrahigh sensitivity, low hysteresis effect and high resolution, showing a promising application prospect in some scientific filed requiring accurate temperature measurement, such as biomolecules, medicine and other filed.…”
