Achieving ultraviolet and narrowband emission simultaneously in nondoped organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) remains a tremendous challenge. Here, a "space-crowded donor−acceptor− donor" molecular design strategy is proposed for developing ultraviolet pure organic fluorophores by the nearby substituted positions at the phenyl linker between carbazole and pyridine units. Benefitting from the large steric hindrance effect, multiple intramolecular interactions, and low-frequency vibronic coupling dominated excited state property, all the emitters exhibit excellent fluorescence efficiencies at the solid state as well as the narrow full width at half maximums (FWHMs). Moreover, the effect of different substitution positions of pyridine on the structure−property relationship is also revealed. Consequently, the nondoped OLEDs exhibit an electroluminescence emission peak of 397 nm with FWHMs of 17 and 22 nm. Due to the high-lying reverse intersystem crossing process, external quantum and exciton utilization efficiencies of 3.6 and 54.55%, respectively, have been achieved based on the emitter with para-linkage. These findings may pave an avenue for the development of high-performance narrowband ultraviolet materials and OLEDs.
Gastric cancer (GC) ranks third for cancer-related fatalities worldwide. It is still unclear what causes GC to progress. Using integrated bioinformatics analysis, COL5A2 has been proved to be related to GC development, which may identify the likely pathogenic mechanism. Data from GC patients were gathered using The Cancer Gene Atlas (TCGA) and the gene expression omnibus (GEO). The level of COL5A2 expression was compared between paired GC and normal tissues. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in GC patients with high and low COL5A2 expression were identified using functional enrichment analysis to identify the signature pathways linked to the DEGs. The clinical pathologic traits connected to overall survival (OS) of GC patients were examined utilizing Cox regression and the Kaplan-Meier method. To assess the prognostic significance of COL5A2, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was drawn. How the immune system infiltrate both normal gastric and GC tumor tissues was investigated. Using the human protein atlas (HPA) database, regression, and the Kaplan-Meier method, immunohistochemical analysis of DEG COL5A2 expression in GC tissues was carried out. The correlation between COL5A2 expression and the GC grouping was found to be highly significant. Functional annotations revealed that COL5A2 participates in extracellular matrix structure, collagen metabolism, and other biological processes (BPs). High COL5A2 expression was associated with poor prognostic and clinical features, such as clinical T, N, and M stages. ROC curves exhibited that COL5A2 might predict the occurrence of gastric cancer. The infiltration degree of 21 immune cell subsets, including activated dendritic cells (aDCs), CD8+ T cells, and cytotoxic cells, was found to be dramatically relevant to COL5A2. Immunohistochemical analysis indicated that the expression of COL5A2 in tumor tissues is higher than that in normal tissues. The COL5A2 gene may offer fresh perspectives on the pathogenic mechanism underlying GC, as well as potential biomarkers for estimating GC patient prognosis. As a result, COL5A2 may be a useful biomarker for predicting patient survival.
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.
