Jiajia Wang et al.

Summary: Converting CO2 to high value-added products through artificial photosynthesis is promising but efficient photocatalyst fabrication remains challenging. In this study, a series of novel core-shell hybrid materials were constructed by in-situ coating Pro-COF-Br on the NH2-UiO-66 core. The hybrid materials had abundant unsaturated metal sites from the core and high surface area, stability, and CO2 capture capacity from the Pro-COF-Br shell. The addition of a porphyrin structure and C=N covalent bonds improved visible light utilization and electron transfer rate, while a Z-scheme heterostructure enhanced electron-hole separation efficiency and improved visible light-driven CO2 reduction. The synthesized product M@C-Br-1 exhibited the highest CO yield and selectivity, offering a facile and effective strategy for constructing core-shell MOFs@COF photocatalysts.

Adverse drug reactions in older adults: a narrative review of the literature

Maria Beatrice Zazzara et al.

Summary: Key points: ADRs are common in frail, multimorbid older adults on polypharmacy, leading to health burden and hospitalization. Age-related factors, such as changes in pharmacokinetics, multimorbidity, polypharmacy, and frailty, increase the risk of ADRs. A multidimensional approach combining pharmaceutical interventions and a global health evaluation can reduce the burden of ADRs in older adults.

Trends in the thermal stability of two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks

Austin M. Evans et al.

Summary: The study compared the thermal stability of ten 2D COFs and found that they generally undergo a two-step thermal degradation process. Boronate ester-linked COFs are generally more thermally stable than comparable imine-linked COFs, while smaller crystalline lattices are more robust to thermal degradation.

Transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation of the pregnane X receptor: a rationale for interindividual variability in drug metabolism

Tomas Smutny et al.

Summary: The pregnane X receptor (PXR) is a key transcription factor known for regulating xenobiotic detoxification, but it is also involved in endogenous metabolism and various pathological states. Non-coding RNAs, especially microRNAs, have been shown to post-transcriptionally regulate PXR expression. In addition, PXR is controlled by multiple transcription factors and genetic polymorphisms, with long non-coding RNAs also playing a role in PXR expression regulation.
