therapy was an option for lung cancer even in cases with ILD in 83% (39/47) of the facilities in Japan. Seventy-eight (3.7%) of 2128 patients who received radiation therapy for lung cancer had ILD. Radiotherapy for ILD-combined lung cancer may induce AE at a substantial rate and AE can be life-threatening. Minimizing the risk of radiation pneumonitis might enable the risk of AE to be reduced. © The Author(s) 2020.

Here we demonstrate quantitatively how thiol speciation at N-terminal cysteines and analogues varies significantly depending upon structure at typical pH values used in NCL.The interfacial properties of the acetonitrile (ACN)-water-silica interface have great implications in both liquid chromatography and heterogeneous catalysis. We have performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of ACN and water binary solutions to give a comprehensive study of the collective effect of silica surface polarity and ACN concentration on interfacial structures and dynamics by tuning both surface charges and ACN concentration. MD simulation results indicate that many properties in the liquid-solid interface region undergo a monotonic change as the silica surface is tuned from polar to apolar due to the weakening of hydrogen bonding, while their dependence on ACN concentration is presumably governed by the preferential adsorption of water at the silica surface over ACN. However, at apolar surfaces, the interfacial structures of both water and ACN behave like the liquid-vapor interface, and this resemblance leads to an enrichment of ACN at the interface as well as accelerated dynamics, which is very different from that in the bulk solution. The organization of ACN molecules at both polar and apolar surfaces can be attributed to the amphiphilic nature of ACN, by which the micro-heterogeneity domain formed can persist both in the bulk and at the liquid-solid interface. Moreover, extending diffusion analysis to the second layer of the interface shows that the interfacial transport pathways at polar surfaces are likely very different from that of apolar surfaces. These simulation results give a full spectrum description of the ACN/water liquid-solid interface at the microscopic level and will be helpful for explaining related spectroscopic experiments and understanding the microscopic mechanisms of separation protocols in current chromatography applications.Convenient strategies to transform regular liposomes or nano-micelles into multifunctional theranostics would be highly valuable in cancer therapy. Herein, we developed an amphiphilic fluorinated porphyrin dendrimer as a multifunctional "add-on" module which would self-assemble onto liposomal drug delivery systems and conveniently transform the liposomes into novel theranostics. Through cancer cells and murine xenograft tumor model assays, the theranostics showed valuable fluorescence/19F magnetic resonance dual modal imaging and highly efficient chemo-photodynamic therapy. The modular strategy facilitates the convenient and standardized preparation of multifunctional theranostics.Combining a plasmonic metal, such as gold, with other popular catalysts, such as Ni or Pt, can extend its benefits to many energy-extensive reactions catalyzed by those metals. The efficiency of a plasmon-enhanced catalytic reaction is mainly determined by the light absorption cross section and the photoexcited charge carrier relaxation dynamics of the nanoparticles. We have investigated the charge carrier relaxation dynamics of gold/nickel (Au/Ni) and gold/platinum (Au/Pt) bimetallic nanoparticles. We found that the addition of Ni or Pt to gold can reduce light absorption in gold nanoparticles. However, electron-phonon coupling rates of Au/Ni and Au/Pt nanoparticles are significantly faster than that of pure Au nanoparticles. This is due to the fact that both Ni and Pt possess significantly larger electron-phonon coupling constants and higher densities of states near the Fermi level in comparison with Au. Additionally, the phonon-phonon coupling rate of bimetallic Au/Pt and Au/Ni nanoparticles was significantly different from that of pure gold nanoparticles, due to the acoustic impedance mismatch at the nanoparticle/substrate interface. Our findings provide important insights into the rational design of bimetallic plasmonic catalysts.One of the long-standing challenges in materials science involves synthesizing biomaterials that recapitulate important features of native biological tissues. Even though, the number of available biomaterials at the moment are virtually limitless, few of them has unlocked all the secrets of the human body by mimicking the combinatorial-like material properties of our tissues and organs. Inspired by the human body, we have developed a polymeric gum, which combines stretchability, toughness, strength, flexibility, and self-healing. It also exhibits a high bioactivity that can target and eliminate bacterial infections fast and reliably. Notably, this material is moldable into almost any complex shape, and therefore suitable as a building block for wearables designed to conform directly with the curved and personalized anatomy of patients. It also exhibits excellent drug retention and release capacity, which altogether makes it suitable for applications in personalized wearable drug-delivery devices.In previous research studies, various types of prismatic cage-shaped molecular containers have been prepared and evaluated in terms of their guest inclusion properties. Tat-beclin 1 Basically, most of these molecular cages have a cationic or electron-deficient nature, and exhibit strong affinity mainly toward electron-rich aromatic guests. On the other hand, there is no report concerning anionic prismatic cages that are expected to recognize cationic polyaromatic guests with various structures and functions. In this manuscript, we present the preparation of hexakis(spiroborate)-type molecular cages, which was achieved by the reaction of phenylene- or biphenylenebis(dihydroxynaphthalene), hexahydroxytriphenylene, and boric acid in N,N-dimethylformamide. Their triangular prismatic hollow structures were confirmed by X-ray crystallographic analysis, and it was found that both phenylene- and biphenylene-bridged spiroborate cages have internal cavities of the corresponding size. It was also revealed that tetra(n-butylammonium) cations located inside the cavity and between the two adjacent spiroborate cages resulted in the formation of a one-dimensional columnar array.
