The topically administered PRDX6 maintained the homeostasis of corneal cells, reduced inflammation, and suppressed neovascularization and apoptosis under ultraviolet irradiation.
Using (γ-methacrylpropyl)-trimethoxysilane (MPMS) modified with various amounts of tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) and titanium tetrabutoxide (TTB), two kinds of hybrid films, film-MPMS-silsesquioxane (SSO)-TEOS (f-MSTE) and film-MPMS-SSO-TTB (f-MSTT), were prepared. The average transparency (AT) of the modified films, about 90-94%, was measured in the ranges of the VIS light region (400-750 nm) and in the NIR region (750-2500 nm), indicating that these high-AT films can provide crops with growth energy and improvement of the photosynthetic process efficiency. Both TEOS and TTB adequate additions resulted in a hybrid structure (containing SiO2and TiO2), and an addition can cause an increase in the AT radiation from sunlight. However, the AT of f-MSTE is higher than that of f-MSTT, which was validated using molecular dynamic simulation and calculation of the states density and the energy-band structure of MPMS-SSO, SiO2and TiO2building blocks.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
