Effect mechanism of H3PO4 on the formation and transformation of persistent free radicals in biochar by Yajie Gao, Yuan Gao, Aimin Li

“…Yet, H3PO4 reduced PFRs in biochar at high pyrolysis temperature (≥ 500 °C), since the capture of H∙ or HO∙ by PO∙ and the steric hindrance changed by H3PO4, which caused the rearrangement and polycondensation of carbon structure. H3PO4 also favored carbon-centered PFRs as the dominant type. …”

Macrophage-inherited exosome excise tumor immunosuppression to expedite immune-activated ferroptosis by Yan Liu, Junjie Liu, Qin Wang, Kun Zhang, Chunyan Zhu, Duo Wang, Guanhua Qiu, Xiaoqi Zhu, Chao Fang

“…M1 macrophage-derived exosomes can inherit more functions and genetic substances than nanovesicles since nanovesicles inevitably suffer from substance and function loss caused by extrusion-arised structural damage.Results Inspired by it, spontaneous homing to tumor and M2-like macrophage polarization into M1-like ones are attained, which not only significantly magnify oxidative stress but also mitigate ITM including M2-like macrophage polarization and regulatory T cell decrease, and regulate death pathways.Conclusions All these actions accomplish a synergistic antitumor enhancement against tumor progression, thus paving a general route to mitigate ITM, activate immune responses, and magnify ferroptosis.…”

Gender equity as a key element for agroecological transitions: Neo‐rural women as managers of agroecological initiatives by Beatriz Vizuete, Marina García‐Llorente, Irene Pérez‐Ramírez, Elisa Oteros‐Rozas

“…Few studies have examined this phenomenon and its potential implications for the agri‐food system and in rural areas, where men's experiences are still considered to be universal, from a gender‐focused perspective. We conducted semi‐structured interviews with 15 women leading agroecological initiatives in the Madrid region and performed content and critical discourse analyses of the interview transcripts to examine: (1) the women's motivations for agroecological project initiation; (2) the influences of the project composition, women's marital status and their trajectories in agroecological initiatives; and (3) the barriers they face and strategies they have developed to overcome difficulties. …”
