In this work, the electrochemical properties of a MnO 2 nanocomposite electrode were investigated in 1butyl-3-methyl-imidazolium hexafluorophosphate ([Bmim]PF 6 )/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) electrolyte. The [Bmim]PF 6 /DMF electrolyte with different volume fractions exhibits significant influence on the electrochemical properties of the electrode. When the volume ratio of [Bmim]PF 6 and DMF was 1 : 1, the electrode showed the best electrochemical performance. The operation potential window of the MnO 2 nanocomposite electrode in ionic liquids was 2.1 V and the specific capacitance according to the mass of MnO 2 was 523.3 F g À1 at 3 A g À1 . Then, a high-voltage (3 V) MnO 2 asymmetric supercapacitor was successfully fabricated, using the MnO 2 nanocomposite electrode, activated carbon and [Bmim]PF 6 /DMF as the positive electrode, negative electrode and electrolyte, respectively. The MnO 2 asymmetric supercapacitor displayed a maximum specific energy of 67.5 W h kg À1 at a specific power of 593.8 W kg À1 and a maximum specific power of 20.4 kW kg À1 at a specific energy of 8.5 W h kg À1 . The impressive results showed that [Bmim]PF 6 /DMF could be a promising electrolyte for MnO 2 supercapacitors.
Chronic stress could induce cancer metastasis by constant activation of the sympathetic nervous system, while cellular mechanism remains obscure. The aim of this research is to explore the metastasis associated negative effect of chronic stress. The analysis of transcriptome sequencing implied that activation of STAT3 signaling pathway by downregulated miR-337-3p might be a potential mechanism to induce epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) of cancer cell and promote metastasis under chronic stress. We also verified this biological process in further experiments. Downregulation of miR-337-3p could downregulate E-cadherin expression and upregulate vimentin expression in vitro and in vivo. STAT3, related signal pathways of which are involved in metastasis regulation, was directly targeted by miR-337-3p. In conclusion, the above results denoted that activation of miR-337-3p/STAT3 axis might be a potential pathway for the increasing metastasis of breast cancer under chronic stress.
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.
