Memory effect of gas hydrate: Influencing factors of hydrate reformation and dissociation behaviors
Memory effect of gas hydrate is a double-edged sword in hydrate-based application and natural gas hydrates exploitation. In this work, in order to acquire a comprehensive understanding of memory effect, we conduct a series of experiments on hydrate reformation and dissociation under different grain filling patterns and thermal history conditions. E...
Forest understorey communities respond strongly to light in interaction with forest structure, but not to microclimate w...
...
Forests harbour large spatiotemporal heterogeneity in canopy structure. This variation drives the microclimate and light availability at the forest floor. So far, we do not know how light availability and sub-canopy temperature interactively mediate the impact of macroclimate warming on understorey communities. We therefore assessed the functional ...
Fetal surgery has no additional effect to general anesthesia on brain development in neonatal rabbits
BACKGROUND: Fetal surgery is part of modern fetal medicine, and some procedures, such as fetal spina bifida repair, are performed under general anesthesia. Fetuses are operated on in a time window when the developing brain is extremely vulnerable to external, potentially harmful factors. To date, little is known about the effect of fetal surgery on...
Mutually opposing activity of PIN7 splicing isoforms is required for auxin-mediated tropic responses in Arabidopsis thal...
...Published in The New phytologist
Advanced transcriptome sequencing has revealed that the majority of eukaryotic genes undergo alternative splicing (AS). Nonetheless, little effort has been dedicated to investigating the functional relevance of particular splicing events, even those in the key developmental and hormonal regulators. Combining approaches of genetics, biochemistry and...
Molybdate effectively controls sulphide production in a shrimp pond model.
Published in Environmental research
The production of shrimp is often performed in earthen outdoor ponds in which the high input of feed and faeces on the bottom can result in deterioration of the water quality, which negatively impacts the animals and the environment. Here, we investigate the potential of sodium molybdate (Na₂MoO₄·2H₂O), sodium nitrate (NaNO3) and sodium percarbonat...
Co-cultivation enhanced microbial protein production based on autotrophic nitrogen-fixing hydrogen-oxidizing bacteria
Autotrophic N2-fixing H2-oxidizing communities produced sustainable microbial protein as an alternative to food and feed based on the Haber-Bosch process. Their dynamics and complexity make it challenging to control the composition and evaluate the product safety. Based on the isolates from a previously enriched community and their metabolism, this...
Inflammatory cell-derived CXCL3 promotes pancreatic cancer metastasis through a novel myofibroblast-hijacked cancer esca...
...Published in Gut
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is the most lethal malignancy and lacks effective treatment. We aimed to understand molecular mechanisms of the intertwined interactions between tumour stromal components in metastasis and to provide a new paradigm for PDAC therapy. Two unselected cohorts of 154 and 20 patients with PDAC were subjected to cor...
Life cycle assessment of edible insects (Protaetia brevitarsis seulensis larvae) as a future protein and fat source
Published in Scientific Reports
Because it is important to develop new sustainable sources of edible protein, insects have been recommended as a new protein source. This study applied Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to investigate the environmental impact of small-scale edible insect production unit in South Korea. IMPACT 2002 + was applied as the baseline impact assessment (IA) meth...
Caffey disease is associated with distinct arginine to cysteine substitutions in the proα1(I) chain of type I procollage...
Published in Genetics in medicine : official journal of the American College of Medical Genetics
Infantile Caffey disease is a rare disorder characterized by acute inflammation with subperiosteal new bone formation, associated with fever, pain, and swelling of the overlying soft tissue. Symptoms arise within the first weeks after birth and spontaneously resolve before the age of two years. Many, but not all, affected individuals carry the hete...
