TL;DR: Though immunotherapy of MSCs remains controversial, these clinical trials pave the way for their widespread therapeutic application in immune-based diseases, and the latest research findings and clinical trials on MSC-based immunomodulation are updated.
Abstract: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells characterized by self-renewal, production of clonal cell populations, and multilineage differentiation. They exist in nearly all tissues and play a significant role in tissue repair and regeneration. Additionally, MSCs possess wide immunoregulatory properties via interaction with immune cells in both innate and adaptive immune systems, leading to immunosuppression of various effector functions. Numerous bioactive molecules secreted by MSCs, particularly cytokines, growth factors, and chemokines, exert autocrine/paracrine effects that modulate the physiological processes of MSCs. These invaluable virtues of MSCs provide new insight into potential treatments for tissue damage and inflammation. In particular, their extensive immunosuppressive properties are being explored for promising therapeutic application in immune disorders. Recently, clinical trials for MSC-mediated therapies have rapidly developed for immune-related diseases following reports from preclinical studies declaring their therapeutic safety and efficacy. Though immunotherapy of MSCs remains controversial, these clinical trials pave the way for their widespread therapeutic application in immune-based diseases. In this review, we will summarize and update the latest research findings and clinical trials on MSC-based immunomodulation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show how simply changing the solvent of an electrolyte system can drastically influence the pseudocapacitive charge storage of the two-dimensional titanium carbide, Ti3C2 (a representative member of the MXene family).
Abstract: Pseudocapacitive energy storage in supercapacitor electrodes differs significantly from the electrical double-layer mechanism of porous carbon materials, which requires a change from conventional thinking when choosing appropriate electrolytes. Here we show how simply changing the solvent of an electrolyte system can drastically influence the pseudocapacitive charge storage of the two-dimensional titanium carbide, Ti3C2 (a representative member of the MXene family). Measurements of the charge stored by Ti3C2 in lithium-containing electrolytes with nitrile-, carbonate- and sulfoxide-based solvents show that the use of a carbonate solvent doubles the charge stored by Ti3C2 when compared with the other solvent systems. We find that the chemical nature of the electrolyte solvent has a profound effect on the arrangement of molecules/ions in Ti3C2, which correlates directly to the total charge being stored. Having nearly completely desolvated lithium ions in Ti3C2 for the carbonate-based electrolyte leads to high volumetric capacitance at high charge–discharge rates, demonstrating the importance of considering all aspects of an electrochemical system during development.

TL;DR: It is observed that the ECL intensity is efficiently quenched by trace amounts of Cu(2+), and it is anticipated that g-C(3)N(4) could be a new class of promising material for fabricating ECL sensors.
Abstract: This paper reports for the first time the electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) behavior of graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with K2S2O8 as the coreactant. The possible ECL reaction mechanisms are proposed. The spectral features of the ECL emission and photoluminescence (PL) of g-C3N4 are compared, and their resemblance demonstrates that the excited states of g-C3N4 from both ECL and photoexcitation are the same. The effects of K2S2O8 concentration, pH, g-C3N4/carbon powder ratio, and scan rate on the ECL intensity have been studied in detail. Furthermore, it is observed that the ECL intensity is efficiently quenched by trace amounts of Cu2+. g-C3N4 is thus employed to fabricate an ECL sensor which shows high selectivity to Cu2+ determination. The limit of detection is determined as 0.9 nM. It is anticipated that g-C3N4 could be a new class of promising material for fabricating ECL sensors.

TL;DR: This study provides an exciting new method for the rational design and development of a conductive TCNQ-based nanoarray as an interesting 3D material for advanced electrochemical applications.
Abstract: It is highly desired but still remains challenging to design and develop a Co-based nanoparticle-encapsulated conductive nanoarray at room temperature for high-performance water oxidation electrocatalysis. Here, it is reported that room-temperature anodization of a Co(TCNQ)2 (TCNQ = tetracyanoquinodimethane) nanowire array on copper foam at alkaline pH leads to in situ electrochemcial oxidation of TCNQ- into water-insoluable TCNQ nanoarray embedding Co(OH)2 nanoparticles. Such Co(OH)2 -TCNQ/CF shows superior catalytic activity for water oxidation and demands only a low overpotential of 276 mV to drive a geometrical current density of 25 mA cm-2 in 1.0 m KOH. Notably, it also demonstrates strong long-term electrochemical durability with its activity being retrained for at least 25 h, a high turnover frequency of 0.97 s-1 at an overpotential of 450 mV and 100% Faradic efficiency. This study provides an exciting new method for the rational design and development of a conductive TCNQ-based nanoarray as an interesting 3D material for advanced electrochemical applications.
