  • Publication number: 20240100066
    Abstract: Provided is an oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug containing a 3-bromopyruvate as an axial ligand, with a molecular formula of cis,trans,cis-[Pt(1R,2R-diaminocyclohexane)(OH)(3-bromopyruvate)(C2O4)]. It is a prodrug of oxaliplatin and 3-bromopyruvic acid is a small molecular glycolysis inhibitor. The prodrug is able to simultaneously act on DNA replication and glycolytic pathways of cancer cells, giving full play to the advantage of double-acting targets. The oral Pt(IV) anticancer prodrug is synthesized by using oxaliplatin as a starting material, performing axial oxidation with H2O2 and neutralizing the oxidized product with 3-bromopyruvic acid.

  • Publication number: 20240063830
    Abstract: The solution can provide a switch-configurable diplexer architecture for dual-band communication. A first diplexer can have a first band for an interlink connection between an access point and a device and a second band for an intralink connection between the device and a second device. The first band and the pass band can be separated by a first gap. A second diplexer can have a third band for the first interlink and a fourth band for the intralink. The third band and the fourth band can be separated by a second gap. The first band and the third band, as well as the second band and the fourth band, can partially overlap. A processor can identify that the access point has selected, for the interlink connection, a first channel corresponding to the second gap and determine, responsive to the identification, to use the second diplexer for the intralink connection.

  • Publication number: 20240034892
    Abstract: Disclosed are a coating composition, a preparation method therefor and use thereof. The coating composition comprises a composition of at least 60% heat-expandable microspheres having a wall thickness of less than or equal to 5 ?m, a water-based thermoplastic resin, a water-based thermosetting resin, and a hot-melt filling resin. By means of the coating composition of the present invention, thin-shell spheres can be quickly softened and destroyed within a short time in the heat-expansion process, and with the volatilization of an organic solvent, the coating composition cross-links, on the surface and inside of the coating, with a resin matrix in the coating to form a cross-linked network structure, thus strengthening the gap support of the coating, and enabling the coating to achieve stepped expansion, and after expansion, some polymer materials wrap an airbag and harden to form a stable hollow structure.

  • Patent number: 10433307
    Abstract: A head-mounted display (HMD) is wirelessly coupled to a console or a relay depending on the relative positions of the HMD, the console, and the relay. The HMD communicates wirelessly with the console using a beam that is oriented in a particular direction. As the position of the HMD changes, the quality of the communication link between the HMD and the console may degrade. In response to the degradation, the HMD forms a communication link with a relay, which operates as an intermediary between the HMD and the console. The relay communicates with the HMD over a dedicated communication channel that is isolated from the communication channel over which the relay communicates with the console.
