The efficient electrocatalysts with low cost, high activity and good durability plays a crucial role in the application of direct formic acid fuel cells. Herein, Pd nanoparticles supported on N-doped hollow carbon nanospheres (NHCN) embedded in Ndoped graphene (ng) with three-dimensional (3D) layered porous configuration by a simple and economical method were investigated as direct formic acid fuel cell catalysts. Owing to the unique 3D interconnected layered porous configuration doped with nitrogen atoms, Pd/NHCN@ng catalyst with smaller Pd nanoparticle size shows large catalytic active surface area, superior electrocatalyticactivity,highsteady-statecurrentdensity,strongabilitytoresistCOpoisoning,farsurpassingthoseofconventionalPd/C,Pd/ng,andPd/***/GOratio,itisfoundthatwhenthe HCN/GO mass ratio is 1∶1, Pd/NHCN@ng catalyst has the most outstanding performance in catalytic oxidation of formic acid,with an activity 4.21 times that of Pd/C. This work has developed a superior carbon-based support material for electrocatalysts, which brings broad application prospects for the development of fuel cells.

●AIM:To evaluate the role of semaphorin 7A(Sema7A)and its associated regulatory mechanisms in modulating the barrier function of cultured human corneal epithelial cells(HCEs).●METHODS:Barrier models of HCEs were treated with recombinant human Sema7A at concentrations of 0,125,250,or 500 ng/mL for 24,48,or 72h in *** electrical resistance(TEER)as well as Dextran-fluorescein isothiocyanate(FITC)permeability assays were conducted to assess barrier *** quantify tight junctions(TJs)such as occludin and zonula occludens-1(ZO-1)at the mRNA level,reverse transcriptionpolymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)analysis was *** was used to examine the activity of the nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)signaling pathway and the production of TJs *** analyses were employed to localize the ***-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)and RT-PCR were utilized to observe changes in interleukin(IL)-1β*** investigate the role of NF-κB signaling activation and IL^(-1)βin Sema7A’s anti-barrier mechanism,we employed 0.1μmol/L IκB kinase 2(IKK2)inhibitor IV or 500 ng/mL IL^(-1)receptor(IL-1R)antagonist.●RESULTS:Treatment with Sema7A resulted in decreased TEER and increased permeability of Dextran-FITC in HCEs through down-regulating mRNA and protein levels of TJs in a time-and dose-dependent manner,as well as altering the localization of ***,Sema7A stimulated the activation of inhibitor of kappa B alpha(IκBα)and expression of IL-1β.The anti-barrier function of Sema7A was significantly suppressed by treatment with IKK2 inhibitor IV or IL-1R antagonists.●CONCLUSION:Sema7A disrupts barrier function through its influence on NF-κB-mediated expression of TJ proteins,as well as the expression of IL-1β.These findings suggest that Sema7A could be a potential therapeutic target for the diseases in corneal epithelium.
