Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is considered the primary causes of end-stage renal disease (ESRD) and is related to abnormal glycolipid metabolism, hemodynamic abnormalities, oxidative stress and chronic inflammation.Antagonism of vascular endothelial growth factor B (VEGF-B) could efficiently ameliorate DN by reducing renal lipotoxicity.However, this p
Corrosion behavior of nanostructured ferritic stainless steel by the generation of LIPSS with ultrashort laser pulses
Femtosecond ultra-short laser pulses can induce various micro- and nanostructural changes in the surface of stainless steel, paving the way for new functionalities in the application of these materials.In this work, UV, visible, and IR femtosecond laser pulses have been utilized on ferritic stainless steel under differing conditions of fluence, pul
