Non-volatile voltage-controlled magnetization in single-phase multiferroic ceramics at room temperature by Zimeng Hu, Gavin B.G. Stenning, Hangfeng Zhang, Yu Shi, Vladimir Koval, Wanting Hu, Zhiyong Zhou, Chenglong Jia, Isaac Abrahams, Haixue Yan

“…The polarization arises from the cooperative displacement of both Fe3+ and Ti4+ relative to the oxygen sublattice in the tetragonally distorted perovskite structure, and the magnetization stems from indirect exchange magnetic interaction between adjacent iron ions. A switchable voltage-controlled magnetization was confirmed by a change of the coercive magnetic field, Hc, and remnant magnetization, Mr, in the x = 0.4 component subjected to an external electric field at room temperature and was possibly attributed to a strain-mediated ME coupling effect. …”

Polydatin protects against DSS-induced ulcerative colitis via Nrf2/Slc7a11/Gpx4-dependent inhibition of ferroptosis signalling activation by Shimin Zheng, Jianbin Yin, Bingbing Wang, Qiujuan Ye, Jialuo Huang, Xinzhi Liang, Junfeng Wu, Hui Yue, Ting Zhang

“…Ferroptosis was determined by MDA levels, SOD levels, mitochondrial iron accumulation and ROS production. Ferroptosis-related proteins Slc7a11, Nrf2 and Gpx4 levels were measured by western blot, immunohistochemical and immunofluorescence staining.ResultsPD mitigated the DSS-induced increases in pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, TNF-α, and IL-1β), alleviated colon length shortening, reduced morphological damage to the intestinal mucosa, and preserved tight junction proteins (TJ) occludin and Zonula occludens-1 (ZO-1) in both caco-2 cells and murine models of colitis. …”
