A"messenger zone hypothesis"based on the visual three-dimensional spatial distribution of motoneurons innervating deep limb muscles

Coordinated contraction of skeletal muscles relies on selective connections between the muscles and multiple classes of the spinal motoneuro ns.Howeve r,current research on the spatial location of the spinal motoneurons innervating differe nt muscles is limited.In this study,we investigated the spatial distribution and relative position of different motoneurons that control the deep muscles of the mouse hindlimbs,which were innervated by the obturator nerve,femoral nerve,inferior gluteal nerve,deep pe roneal nerve,and tibial nerve.Locations were visualized by combining a multiplex retrograde tracking technique compatible with three-dimensional imaging of solvent-cleared o rgans(3DISCO)and 3-D imaging technology based on lightsheet fluorescence microscopy(LSFM).Additionally,we propose the hypothesis that"messenger zones"exist as interlaced areas between the motoneuron pools that dominate the synergistic or antagonist muscle groups.We hypothesize that these interlaced neurons may participate in muscle coordination as messenger neurons.Analysis revealed the precise mutual positional relationships among the many motoneurons that innervate different deep muscles of the mouse.Not only do these findings update and supplement our knowledge regarding the overall spatial layout of spinal motoneurons that control mouse limb muscles,but they also provide insights into the mechanisms through which muscle activity is coordinated and the architecture of motor circuits.

Regulating the coordination microenvironment of atomic bismuth sites in nitrogen-rich carbon nanosheets as anode for superior potassium-ion batteries

Carbon-based materials are recognized as anodes fulling of promise for potassium ion batteries(PIBs)due to advantages of affordable cost and high conductivity.However,they still face challenges including structural unstability and slow kinetics.It is difficult to achieve efficient potassium storage with unmodified carbonaceous anode.Herein,atomic bismuth(Bi)sites with different atom coordinations anchored on carbon nanosheets(CNSs)have been synthesized through a template method.The properties of prepared multi-doping carbon anodes Bi-N_(3)S_(1)/CNSs,Bi-N_(3)P_(1)/CNSs and Bi-N_(4)/CNSs were probed in PIBs.The configuration Bi-N_(3)S_(1) with stronger charge asymmetry exhibits superior potassium storage performance compared to Bi-N_(3)P_(1) and Bi-N_(4) configurations.The Bi-N_(3)S_(1)/CNSs display a rate capacity of 129.2 mAh g^(-1)even at 10 A g^(-1)and an impressive cyclability characterized by over 5000 cycles at 5 A g^(-1),on account of its optimal coordination environment with more active Bi centers and K^(+)adsorption sites.Notably,assembled potassium-ion full cell Mg-KVO//Bi-N_(3)S_(1)/CNSs also shows an outstanding cycling stability,enduring 3000 cycles at 2 A g^(-1).Therefore,it can be demonstrated that regulating the electronic structure of metallic centre M-N_(4) via changing the type of ligating atom is a feasible strategy for modifying carbon anodes,on the base of co-doping metal and non-metal.

Engineering the coordination structure of Cu for enhanced photocatalytic production of C_(1) chemicals from glucose

Photocatalytic decomposition of sugars is a promising way of providing H_(2),CO,and HCOOH as sus-tainable energy vectors.However,the production of C_(1) chemicals requires the cleavage of robust C−C bonds in sugars with concurrent production of H_(2),which remains challenging.Here,the photo-catalytic activity for glucose decomposition to HCOOH,CO(C_(1) chemicals),and H_(2) on Cu/TiO_(2)was enhanced by nitrogen doping.Owing to nitrogen doping,atomically dispersed and stable Cu sites resistant to light irradiation are formed on Cu/TiO_(2).The electronic interaction between Cu and nitrogen ions originates valence band structure and defect levels composed of N 2p orbit,distinct from undoped Cu/TiO_(2).Therefore,the lifetime of charge carriers is prolonged,resulting in the pro-duction of C_(1) chemicals and H_(2) with productivities 1.7 and 2.1 folds that of Cu/TiO_(2).This work pro-vides a strategy to design coordinatively stable Cu ions for photocatalytic biomass conversion.

Identification of the highly active Zn-N_(4) sites with pyrrole/pyridine-N synergistic coordination by dz^(2)+s-band center for electrocatalytic H_(2)O_(2) production

Single metal atoms anchored on nitrogen-doped carbon materials(M-N_(4))have been identified as effective active sites for catalyzing the two-electron oxygen reduction reaction(2e-ORR).However,the relationship between the local atomic/electronic environments of the M-N_(4) sites(metal atoms coordinated with different types of N species)and their catalytic activity for 2e-ORR has rarely been elaborated clearly,which imposes significant ambiguity for the rational design of catalysts.Herein,guided by the comprehensive density-functional theory calculations and predictions,a series of Zn-N_(4) single-atom catalysts(SACs)are designed with pyrrole/pyridine-N(N_(Po)/N_(Pd))synergistic coordination and prepared by controlling the pyrolysis temperature(600,700,and 800℃),Among them,the dominated Zn-N_(4) configurations with rationally combined N_(Po)/N_(Pd)coordination show~*OOH adsorption strength close to the optimal value,much superior to those with mono N species.Thus,the as-prepared catalyst exhibits a high H_(2)O_(2) selectivity of over 90%both in neutral and alkaline environments,with a superb H_(2)O_(2) yield of up to 33.63 mol g^(-1)h^(-1)in an alkaline with flow cell.More importantly,a new descriptor,dz^(2)+s band center,has been proposed,which is especially feasible for predicting the activity for metal types with fully occupied s and d orbitals.This work thus presents clear guidance for the rational design of highly active SACs toward ORR and provides a complement to the d-band theory for more accurately predicting the catalytic activity of the materials.

Unraveling the coordination behavior and transformation mechanism of Cr^(3+) in Fe–Cr redox flow battery electrolytes

Currently,the iron chromium redox flow battery(ICRFB)has become a research hotspot in the energy storage field owing to its low cost and easily-scaled-up.However,the activity of electrolyte is still ambiguous due to its complicated solution environment.Herein,we performed a pioneering investigation on the coordination behavior and transformation mechanism of Cr^(3+)in electrolyte and prediction of impurity ions impact through quantum chemistry computations.Based on the structure and symmetry of electrostatic potential distribution,the activity of different Cr^(3+)complex ions is confirmed as[Cr(H2O)5Cl]^(2+)>[Cr(H2O)4Cl2]+>[Cr(H2O)6]^(3+).The transformation mechanism between[Cr(H2O)6]^(3+)and[Cr(H2O)5Cl]^(2+)is revealed.We find the metal impurity ions(especially Mg^(2+))can exacerbate the electrolyte deactivation by reducing the transformation energy barrier from[Cr(H2O)5Cl]^(2+)(24.38 kcal mol^(−1))to[Cr(H2O)6]^(3+)(16.23 kcal mol^(−1)).The solvent radial distribution and mean square displacement in different solvent environments are discussed and we conclude that the coordination configuration limits the diffusivity of Cr^(3+).This work provides new insights into the activity of electrolyte,laying a fundamental sense for the electrolyte in ICRFB.

Impact of coupling coordination development of port and city environments on urban economic competitiveness:Evidence from the coastal port cities in eastern China

Promoting the coupling coordination development of port and its hinterland city environments is an important way to improve urban economic competitiveness.Based on relevant data of 13 coastal port cities in eastern China from 2000 to 2018,this study explores the coupling coordination development of port and city environments and its impact on urban economic competitiveness by constructing the coupling coordination degree model and the panel threshold model.The research results show that:(1)In terms of the coupling coordination development of port and city environments,most coastal ports and their hinterland cities are in a state of moderate or serious disorder.Overall,the degree of coupling coordination of port and city environments needs to be further improved;(2)The coupling coordination degree of port and city environments has a significant impact on urban economic competitiveness,and this effect gradually increases with the development of the ports and the urban economy.Among the variables that impact the urban economic competitiveness,fixed assets investment and foreign trade are significant factors that can enhance urban economic competitiveness.(3)At present,there is a“U-shaped”relationship between the coupling coordination degree of port-city environments and the urban economic competitiveness.This relationship lies on the right side of the inflection point of the“U-shaped”curve.Therefore,following the concept of assigning priority to ecological development,expanding fixed assets investment and actively developing foreign trade can further enhance the urban economic competitiveness.
