| 2 | Echinacoside Protects Against MPP+-Induced Neuronal Apoptosis via ROS/ATF3/CHOP Pathway Regulation显示文摘Echinacoside(ECH) is protective in a mouse model of Parkinson's disease(PD) induced by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium ion(MPP^+). To investigate the mechanisms involved, SH-SY5Y neuroblastoma cells were treated with MPP^+or a combination of MPP^+and ECH,and the expression of ATF3(activating transcription factor3), CHOP(C/EBP-homologous protein), SCNA(synuclein alpha), and GDNF(glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor) was assessed. The results showed that ECH significantly improved cell survival by inhibiting the generation of MPP^+-induced reactive oxygen species(ROS). In addition, ECH suppressed the ROS and MPP^+-induced expression of apoptotic genes(ATF3, CHOP, and SCNA). ECH markedly decreased the MPP^+-induced caspase-3 activity in a dose-dependent manner. ATF3-knockdown also decreased the CHOP and cleaved caspase-3 levels and inhibited the apoptosis induced by MPP^+.Interestingly, ECH partially restored the GDNF expression that was down-regulated by MPP^+. ECH also improved dopaminergic neuron survival during MPP^+treatment and protected these neurons against the apoptosis induced by MPTP. Taken together, these data suggest that the ROS/ATF3/CHOP pathway plays a critical role in mechanisms by which ECH protects against MPP^+-induced apoptosis in PD. | Qing Zhao Xiaoyan Yang Dingfang Cai Ling Ye Yuqing Hou Lijun Zhang Jiwei Cheng Yuan Shen Kaizhe Wang Yu Bai | 2016 | Neuroscience Bulletin2016,32,4: | 14 |
| 3 | Recent progress on the recycling technology of Li-ion batteries显示文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)have been widely applied in portable electronic devices and electric vehicles.With the booming of the respective markets,a huge quantity of spent LIBs that typically use either LiFePO_(4) or Li N_(x)Co_(y)Mn_(z)O_(2) cathode materials will be produced in the very near future,imposing significant pressure for the development of suitable disposal/recycling technologies,in terms of both environmental protection and resource reclaiming.In this review,we firstly do a comprehensive summary of the-state-of-art technologies to recycle Li N_(x)Co_(y)Mn_(z)O_(2) and LiFePO_(4)-based LIBs,in the aspects of pretreatment,hydrometallurgical recycling,and direct regeneration of the cathode materials.This closed-loop strategy for cycling cathode materials has been regarded as an ideal approach considering its economic benefit and environmental friendliness.Afterward,as for the exhausted anode materials,we focus on the utilization of exhausted anode materials to obtain other functional materials,such as graphene.Finally,the existing challenges in recycling the LiFePO_(4) and Li N_(x)Co_(y)Mn_(z)O_(2) cathodes and graphite anodes for industrial-scale application are discussed in detail;and the possible strategies for these issues are proposed.We expect this review can provide a roadmap towards better technologies for recycling LIBs,shed light on the future development of novel battery recycling technologies to promote the environmental benignity and economic viability of the battery industry and pave way for the large-scale application of LIBs in industrial fields in the near future. | Yuqing Wang Ning An Lei Wen Lei Wang Xiaotong Jiang Feng Hou Yuxin Yin Ji Liang | 2021 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2021,30,4: | 10 |
| 4 | Genome-wide identification of OSCA gene family and their potential function in the regulation of dehydration and salt stress in Gossypium hirsutum显示文摘Background:Cotton(Gossypium hirsutum) provides the largest natural fiber for the textile manufacturing industries,but its production is on the decline due to the effects of salinity.Soil salt-alkalization leads to damage in cotton growth and a decrease in yields.Hyperosmolality-gated calcium-permeable channels(OSCA) have been found to be involved in the detection of extracellular changes which trigger an increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration.Hyperosmolality-induced calcium ion increases have been widely speculated to be playing a role in osmosensing in plants.However,the molecular nature of the corresponding calcium ion channels remains unclearly.In this research work,we describe the OSCA genes and their putative function in osmosensing in plants by carrying out genomewide identification,characterization and functional analysis of the significantly up-regulated OSCA gene,GhOSCA1.1 through reverse genetics.Result:A total of 35,21 and 22 OSCA genes were identified in G.hirsutum,G.arboreum,and G.raimondii genomes,respectively,and were classified into four different clades according to their gene structure and phylogenetic relationship.Gene and protein structure analysis indicated that 35 GhOSCA genes contained a conserved RSN17 TM(PF02714) domain.Moreover,the cis-regulatory element analysis indicated that the OSCA genes were involved in response to abiotic stress.Furthermore,the knockdown of one of the highly up-regulated genes,GhOSCA1.1 showed that the virus-induced gene silenced(VIGS) plants were highly sensitive to dehydration and salinity stresses compared with the none VIGS plants as evident with higher concentration levels of oxidant enzymes compared with the antioxidant enzymes on the leaves of the stressed plants.Conclusion:This study provides the first systematic analysis of the OSCA gene family and will be important for understanding the putative functions of the proteins encoded by the OSCA genes in cotton.These results provide a new insight of defense responses in general and lay the foundation for further investigation of the molecular role played by the OSCA genes,thereby providing suitable approaches to improve crop performance under salinity and drought stress conditions. | YANG Xiu XU Yanchao YANG Fangfang MAGWANGA Richard Odongo CAI Xiaoyan WANG Xingxing WANG Yuhong HOU Yuqing WANG Kunbo LIU Fang ZHOU Zhongli | 2019 | Journal of Cotton Research2019,2,2: | 7 |

| 6 | Comments on National guidelines for diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer 2022 in China (English version)显示文摘Thyroid cancer (TC) is the most common endocrine system cancer, of note, the overall survival of TC in China is suboptimal when comparing with the developed countries such as US (84.3%vs.98.3%), posing a great challenge among professionals involved in this field.Standardization of its diagnosis and treatment not only provides the basis for all the care givers to promote the entire level of TC management, but also is helpful in shortening the distance between China and other developed countries. A multidisciplinary team (MDT)should be involved in the comprehensive clinical management of TC, particularly for those advanced or refractory TC, which needs cooperation among members from ultrasonography, radiology, pathology, surgery. | Hao Wang Jian Wang Xiang Wang Yiming Zhu Yuqing Sun Xin Zhang Xiaorong Hou Kun Zheng Shaoyan Liu Yansong Lin | 2022 | Chinese Journal of Cancer Research2022,34,5: | 2 |
| 7 | Special interstitial route can transport nanoparticles to the brain bypassing the blood-brain barrier显示文摘Nowadays,nanoparticles(NPs)are considered to be ideal tools for bioimaging and drug delivery.Although increasing research has focused on NP biodistribution,transportation in the interstitial architecture has been neglected.The entire body is connected by the interstitial architecture,which can provide a long-range and direct pathway for NP biodistribution in a nonvascular system.In this study,we report that 10-nm gold NPs injected directly into the interstitial architecture of the tarsal tunnel of rats(intervaginal space injection(ISI))were delivered to the brain without crossing the blood-brain barrier.Furthermore,NaGdF4 nanoparticles were used to explore the transportation route by magnetic resonance imaging.The results demonstrated that,after ISI,the NaGdF4 nanoparticles were transported through the perivascular interstitial space of the carotid arteries and brain vessels to the brain.This is a special nonvascular transportation route like a stream based on the interstitial architecture that provides an alternative pathway for NP biodistribution. | Nan Hu Xiaoli Shi Qiang Zhang Wentao Liu Yuting Zhu Yuqing Wang Yi Hou Yinglu Ji Yupeng Cao Qian Zeng Zhuo Ao Quanmei Sun Xiaohan Zhou Xiaochun Wu Dong Han | 2019 | Nano Research2019,12,11: | 2 |
| 8 | Sparse reconstruction for fluorescence molecular tomography via a fast iterative algorithm显示文摘Fluorescence molecular tomography(FMT)is a fast-developing optical imaging modalitythat has great potential in early diagnosis of disease and drugs development.However,recon-struction algorithms have to address a highly ill-posed problem to fulfll 3D reconstruction inFMT.In this contribution,we propose an efficient iterative algorithm to solve the large-scalereconstruction problem,in which the sparsity of fluorescent targets is taken as useful a prioriinformation in designing the reconstruction algorithm.In the implementation,a fast sparseapproximation scheme combined with a stage-wise learning strategy enable the algorithm to dealwith the ill-posed inverse problem at reduced computational costs.We validate the proposed fastiterative method with numerical simulation on a digital mouse model.Experimental results demonstrate that our method is robust for different finite element meshes and different Poissonnoise levels. | Jingjing Yu Jingxing Cheng Yuqing Hou Xiaowei He | 2014 | Journal of Innovative Optical Health Sciences2014,7,3: | 2 |

| 10 | Efficacy and safety of darbepoetin alfa injection replacing epoetin alfa injection for the treatment of renal anemia in Chinese hemodialysis patients:A randomized,open-label,parallel-group,noninferiority phase III trial显示文摘Background:This study was to explore the clinical efficacy and safety of darbepoetin alfa injection replacing epoetin alfa injection(recombinant human erythropoietin injection,rHuEPO)for the treatment of anemia associated with chronic kidney failure in Chinese patients undergoing hemodialysis.Method:This study was a multicenter,randomized,open-label,intergroup parallel control phase III noninferiority trial from April 19,2013 to September 9,2014 at 25 sites.In this study,the members of the darbepoetin alfa group underwent intravenous administration once per week or once every two weeks.The members of the control drug epoetin alfa group underwent intravenous administration two or three times per week.All subjects underwent epoetin alfa administration during the 8-week baseline period.After that,subjects were randomly assigned to the darbepoetin alfa group or epoetin alfa group.The noninferiority in the changes of the average Hb concentrations from the baseline to the end of the evaluation period(noninferiority threshold:-1.0 g/dl)was tested between the two treatments.The time-dependent hemoglobin(Hb)concentration and the maintenance rate of the target Hb concentration(the proportion of subjects with Hb concentrations between 10.0 and 12.0 g/dl)were also evaluated.Iron metabolism,including changes in the serum iron,total iron-binding capacity,ferritin,transferrin saturation,and comparisons of the dose adjustments between the two groups during the treatment period were analyzed further.Adverse events(AEs)were also observed and compared,and the safety was analyzed between the two treatment groups.The conversion rate switching from epoetin alfa to darbepoetin alfa was also discussed.SAS?software version 9.2 was used to perform all statistical analyses.Descriptive statistics were used for all efficacy,safety,and demographic variable analyses,including for the primary efficacy indicators.Results:Four hundred and sixty-six patients were enrolled in this study,and ultimately 384 cases were analyzed for safety,including 267 cases in the darbepoetin alfa group and 117 cases in the epoetin alfa group.There were 211 cases in the per-protocol set,including 152 cases in the darbepoetin alfa group and 59 cases in the epoetin alfa group.The changes in the average Hb concentrations from the baseline to the end of the evaluation period were-0.07 and-0.15 g/dl in the darbepoetin alfa group and epoetin alfa group respectively.The difference between the two groups was 0.08 g/dl(95%confidence interval[CI]:-0.22 to 0.39),and the lower limit of the 95%CI was-0.22>-1.0 g/dl.The average Hb concentrations of the two groups were 10.88-11.43 g/dl(darbepoetin alfa)and 10.91-11.38 g/dl(epoetin alfa)during the study period of Weeks 0-28,with the maintenance rates of the target Hb concentration ranging within 71%-87%and 78%-95%in the darbepoetin alfa group and epoetin alfa group respectively.During the period of comparison between the two groups,the incidence of AEs in the darbepoetin alfa group was 61.42%,while in the epoetin alfa group it was 56.41%.All of the adverse events and reactions in the study were those commonly associated with hemodialysis.Conclusion:The overall efficacy and safety of darbepoetin alfa for the treatment of Chinese renal anemia patients undergoing hemodialysis are consistent with those of epoetin alfa. | Bicheng Liu Nan Chen Jinghong Zhao Aiping Yin Xiongfei Wu Changying Xing Gengru Jiang Junzhou Fu Mei Wang Rong Wang Jianying Niu Ping Fu Zhaohui Ni Fanfan Hou Jiuyang Zhao Jing Chen Yuqing Chen Wei Shi Jianghua Chen Wenge Li Gang Xu Ling Zhong Wenhu Liu Guohua Ding Yuichiro Kondo Changhe Yue Changlin Mei | 2022 | Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine2022,8,2: | 1 |
| 11 | Laser direct writing derived robust carbon nitride films with efficient photon-to-electron conversion for multifunctional photoelectrical applications显示文摘Carbon nitride,an emerging polymeric semiconductor,has attracted attention in research ranging from photocatalysis to photodetection due to its favorable visible light response and high physicochemical stability.For its practical device application,the fabrication of high-quality carbon nitride films on substrates is essential.However,conventional methodologies to achieve high polymerization of carbon nitride are often accompanied by its decomposition,significantly compromising the film quality.Herein,we report an ultrafast fabrication of carbon nitride film by laser direct writing(LDW).The instantaneous high temperature and pressure during LDW can efficiently boost the polymerization of carbon nitride and suppress its decomposition,resulting in high-quality carbon nitride film with excellent mechanical stability with the substrate.Due to the efficient photon-to-electron conversion,it exhibits an outstanding photoelectrochemical water splitting and optoelectronic detection capability,even under strong acid/alkaline conditions.This study thus offers a facile and efficient LDW strategy for the rapid fabrication of carbon nitride film photoelectrodes,demonstrating its great feasibility in multifunctional photoelectrical applications,including but not limited to photoelectrochemical water splitting and optoelectronic detection. | Haotian Tan Wenping Si Wei Peng Yuqing Wang Daolan Liu Liqun Wang Chongyun Jiang Lu Di Ji Liang Feng Hou | 2022 | Carbon Energy2022,4,6: | 1 |
| 12 | Thermo-kinetic connectivity by integrating thermo-kinetic correlation and generalized stability显示文摘Designing structured materials with optimized mechanical properties generally focuses on engineering microstructures,which are closely determined by the processing routes,such as phase transformations(PTs)and plastic deformations(PDs).Both PTs and PDs follow inherent trade-off relation between thermodynamic driving force ΔG and kinetic energy barrier Q,i.e.,so-called thermo-kinetic correlation.By analyzing nucleation and growth and proposing a conception of negative driving force integrating strain energy,interface energy and any kind of energy that equivalently inhibits the PT itself,ΔG^(S),unified expressions for the thermo-kinetic correlation and generalized stability(GS)were derived for three kinds of PTs,i.e.,diffusive PTs with simultaneously decreasedΔG and increased Q,diffusive PTs with simultaneously increasedΔG and decreased Q,and displacive PTs with simultaneously increased ΔG and decreased Q.This leads to so-called thermo-kinetic connectivity by integrating the thermo-kinetic correlation and the GS,where,by application in typical PTs,it was clearly shown,a criterion of high ΔG-high GS can be predicted by modulating chemical driving force,negative driving force and kinetic energy barrier for diffusion or nucleation.Following thermo-kinetic connectivity,analogous procedure for dislocation evolution upon PDs was performed,and materials design in terms of the highΔG-high GS criterion was discussed and prospected. | Yuqing He Shaojie Song Jinglian Du Haoran Peng Zhigang Ding Huaiyu Hou Linke Huang Yongchang Liu Feng Liu | 2022 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2022,,32: | 1 |
| 13 | Darbepoetin alfa injection versus epoetin alfa injection for treating anemia of Chinese hemodialysis patients with chronic kidney failure:A randomized,open-label,parallel-group,non-inferiority Phase III trail显示文摘Background:Erythropoietin is a glycoprotein that mainly regulates erythropoiesis.In patients with chronic renal failure with anemia,darbepoetin alfa can stimulate erythropoiesis,correct anemia,and maintain hemoglobin levels.This study was designed to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of darbepoetin alfa injections as being not inferior to epoetin alfa injections(Recombinant Human Erythropoietin injection,rHuEPO)when maintaining hemoglobin(Hb)levels within the target range(10.0-12.0 g/dL)for the treatment of renal anemia.Methods:Ninety-five patients were enrolled in this study from April 15,2013 to April 10,2014 at 25 sites.In this study,patients(n=95)aged 18-70 years were randomized into a once per week intravenous darbepoetin alfa group(n=56)and a twice or three times per week intravenous epoetin alfa group(n=39)for 28 weeks,who had anemia with hemoglobin levels between 6 g/dL and 10 g/dL due to chronic kidney disease(CKD)and were undergoing hemodialysis or hemofiltration with ESA-naive(erythropoiesis stimulating agent-naive).The primary efficacy profile was the mean Hb level(the non-inferiority margin was-1.0 g/dL,week 21-28);the secondary efficacy profiles were the Hb increase rate(week 0-4),the target Hb achievement cumulative rate and time,the change trends of the Hb levels,and the target Hb maintenance ratio.Adverse events(AEs)were observed and compared,and the efficacy and safety were analyzed between the two treatment groups.Additionally,the frequencies of dose adjustments between the darbepoetin alfa and epoetin alfa groups were compared during the treatment period.SAS?software version 9.2 was used to perform all statistical analyses.Descriptive statistics were used for all efficacy,safety,and demographic variable analyses,including for the primary efficacy indicators.Results:The mean Hb level was 11.3 g/dL in the darbepoetin alfa group and 10.7 g/dL in the epoetin alfa group,respectively;the difference of the lower limits of the 95%confidence intervals(CI)between the two groups was 0.1 g/dL(>-1.0 g/dL),and non-inferiority was proven;the Hb levels started to increase in the first four weeks at a similar increase rate;no obvious differences were observed between the groups in the target Hb achievement cumulative rates,and the Hb levels as well as the target Hb level maintenance rate changed over time.The incidence of AEs was 62.5%in the darbepoetin alfa group and 76.9%in the epoetin alfa group.All the adverse events observed in the study were those commonly associated with hemodialysis.Conclusion:Darbepoetin alfa intravenously once per week can effectively increase Hb levels and maintain the target Hb levels well,which makes it not inferior to epoetin alfa intravenously twice or three times per week.Darbepoetin alfa shows an efficacy and safety comparable to epoetin alfa for the treatment of renal anemia. | Nan Chen Changying Xing Jianying Niu Bicheng Liu Junzhou Fu Jiuyang Zhao Zhaohui Ni Mei Wang Wenhu Liu Jinghong Zhao Ling Zhong Xiongfei Wu Wenge Li Yuqing Chen Wei Shi Jianghua Chen Aiping Yin Ping Fu Rong Wang Gengru Jiang Fanfan Hou Guohua Ding Jing Chen Gang Xu Yuichiro Kondo Yuliang Su Changlin Mei | 2022 | Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine2022,8,1: | 1 |
| 14 | Emergent superconducting fluctuations in compressed kagome superconductor CsV_(3)Sb_(5)显示文摘The recent discovery of superconductivity(SC)and charge density wave(CDW)in kagome metals AV3Sb5(A=K,Rb,Cs)provides an ideal playground for the study of emergent electronic orders.Application of moderate pressure leads to a two-dome-shaped SC phase regime in CsV_(3)Sb_(5) accompanied by the destabilizing of CDW phase.Nonetheless,the nature of this pressure-tuned SC state and its interplay with the CDW are yet to be explored.Here,we perform soft point-contact spectroscopy(SPCS)measurements in CsV_(3)Sb_(5) to investigate the evolution of superconducting order parameter with pressure.Surprisingly,we find that the superconducting gap is significantly enhanced between the two SC domes,at which the zero-resistance temperature is suppressed and the transition is remarkably broadened.Moreover,the temperature-dependence of the SC gap in this pressure range severely deviates from the conventional Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer(BCS)behavior,evidencing for strong Cooper pair phase fluctuations.These findings reveal the complex intertwining of the CDW with SC in the compressed CsV_(3)Sb_(5),suggesting striking parallel to the cuprate superconductor La2xBaxCuO4.Our results point to the essential role of charge degree of freedom in the development of intertwining electronic orders,and thus provide new constraints for theories. | Xikai Wen Fanghang Yu Zhigang Gui Yuqing Zhang Xingyuan Hou Lei Shan Tao Wu Ziji Xiang Zhenyu Wang Jianjun Ying Xianhui Chen | 2023 | Science Bulletin2023,,3: | 1 |
| 15 | Genome-wide identification and analysis of the CNGC gene family in upland cotton under multiple stress conditions显示文摘Background The cyclic nucleotide-gated channel(CNGC)gene family plays a significant role in the uptake of both essential and toxic cations,and has a role in enhancing tolerance to various forms of abiotic stresses as well as the modulation of the heavy metal toxicity to plant through the absorption of heavy metals.Results A complete genome-wide identification and functional characterization of the cotton CNGC genes was carried out,in which 55,28,and 29 CNGC genes were identified in Gossypium hirsutum,G.raimondii,and G.arboreum,respectively.The protein encoded by the CNGC genes exhibited GRAVY value below zero,indicating their hydrophilic property.CNGC genes were unevenly distributed in 19 out of 26 chromosomes,in which the highest density were observed on Ah05,with 8 genes.High gene coverage was observed among the diploid cotton species,with CNGC genes mapped on all A chromosomes and on 11 out of 13 of D chromosomes.The majority of CNGC proteins were localized in the endoplasmic reticulum,nucleus,and plasma membrane.Gene expression analysis revealed the up-regulation of Gh_A01G0520(CNGC4)and Gh_D13G1974(CNGC5)across various forms of abiotic stresses.Moreover,down-regulation of Gh_A01G0520(CNGC4)and Gh_D13G1974(CNGC5)in CNGCs silenced plants caused the significantly reduced ability to tolerate drought and salt stresses.All CNGCs silenced plants were recorded to have significantly low content of antioxidants but relatively higher content of oxidant,including MDA and H_(2)O_(2).Furthermore,SPAD,CMS(cell membrane stability),ELWL(excised leaf water loss),SDW(shoot dry matter weight),and RDW(root dry matter weight)were all lower in CNGCs silenced plants compared with the wild type plants.Conclusion Significant reduction in antioxidant content and negative effects of physiological and morphological characters in CNGCs silenced plants has revealed the novel role of CNGC genes in enhancing cell integrity under abiotic stress conditions.These results provide vital information that will expand our understanding of the CNGC gene family in cotton and other plants,thus promoting the integration of these genes in the development of the environmental resilient plants. | KIRUNGU Joy Nyangasi MAGWANGA Richard Odongo SHIRAKU Margaret Linyerera OKUTO Erick CAI Xiaoyan XU Yanchao HOU Yuqing AGONG' Stephen Gaya WANG Kunbo WANG Yuhong ZHOU Zhongli LIU Fang | 2023 | Journal of Cotton Research2023,6,3: | 0 |
| 16 | Establishment of correlation between reaction kinetics and carbon structures in the char gasification process显示文摘For a gasification process,the char-CO_(2)gasification is the controlling step worthwhile to be deeply investigated.The article chosen corn stalk(CS),poplar sawdust(PS)and bagasse residue(BR)as the typical waste species derived from agricultural,forestal and industrial sources.The char-CO_(2)gasification behavior,reaction kinetics and carbon structure were studied to reveal the intrinsic factors determining the reaction kinetics.Generally,the carbon conversion and maximum conversion rate were influenced by the feedstocks species and char preparation temperatures,as influenced by ash proportion,potassium content in ash and carbon structure of char.The char-CO_(2)reaction for CS was subject more to the catalytic effect of alkali compositions,while pore structure affected more the gasification reaction for PS char.The isoconversional kinetic analysis indicated that the gasification reaction became stable at carbon conversion of 0.5.Subsequently,sectionalized kinetic parameters were calculated for the initial gasification temperature to the temperature reaching 50%conversion.The result showed that high initial gasification temperature increased the char-CO_(2)gasification barrier to hardly start the reaction but accelerate the reaction rate.The carbon structure analyses further clarified that the reaction activation energy was highly related to the microcrystalline structure of carbon,while the reaction rate was more determined by carbon pore structure. | Zefeng Ge Xi Cao Zhenting Zha Yuna Ma Mingxun Zeng Yuqing Wu Zenghui Hou Huiyan Zhang | 2023 | Carbon Resources Conversion2023,6,2: | 0 |
| 17 | High-Performance Ionic Thermoelectric Supercapacitor for Integrated Energy Conversion-Storage显示文摘Converting low-grade waste heat into usable electricity and storing it simultaneously requires a new technology that realize the directional migration of electrons or ions under temperature difference and enrichment on the electrodes.Although the urgent demand of energy conversion-storage(ECS)has emerged in the field of wearable electronic,achieving the integrated bi-functional device remains challenge due to the different mechanisms of electrical transportation and storage.Here,we report an ionic thermoelectric supercapacitor that relies on the synergistic functions of thermoelectricity and supercapacitor in the thermoelectric ionogel electrolyte and high-performance hydrogel electrodes to enhance the ECS performance under a thermal gradient.The thermoelectric electrolyte is composed of polyacrylamide hydrogel and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose(PMSC),possessing cross-linked network with excellent cation selectivity,while the ionic thermoelectric properties are further improved in the presence of NaCl.The corresponding Seebeck coefficient and ionic conductivity of the NaCl–PMSC electrolyte reach 17.1 mV K^(-1)and 26.8 mS cm^(-1),respectively.Owing to good stretchability of both gel-based electrolyte and electrode,the fullstretchable integrated ECS device,termed ionic thermoelectric supercapacitor,presents promising thermal-charge storage capability(~1.3 mC,ΔT≈10 K),thus holds promise for wearable energy harvesting. | Xinyu Yang Yuqing Tian Bo Wu Wei Jia Chengyi Hou Qinghong Zhang Yaogang Li Hongzhi Wang | 2022 | Energy & Environmental Materials2022,5,3: | 0 |
| 18 | PKCαphosphorylation of GLT-1 at Ser562/563 induces glutamate excitotoxicity in ischemia in mice显示文摘Dear Editor,Glutamate excitotoxicity due to its accumulation in the extracellular space is a major factor to the brain damage that occurs during the early stages of cerebral ischemia1.GLT-1 is mainly expressed in astrocytes,and it is responsible for almost 90%of glutamate uptake in the brain2.Although GLT-1 upregulation under the administration of ceftriaxone reduces ischemic brain damage,translational application of ceftriaxone in acute ischemia treatment is limited because several days are needed for the upregulation of GLT-1^(3),which misses the critical time window during which suppression of excitotoxicity will be effective. | Yuqing Wang Jun Du Shanshan Lu Xia Li Yifei Chen Chao Yuan Sheng-Tao Hou Yizheng Wang | 2022 | Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2022,7,4: | 0 |
| 19 | The ionome and proteome landscape of aging in laying hens and relation to egg white quality显示文摘The ionome is essential for maintaining body function and health status by participating in diverse key biological processes.Nevertheless, the distribution and utilization of ionome among different organs and how aging impacts the ionome leading to a decline in egg white quality remain unknown. Thus, we used inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(ICP-MS) to analyze 35 elements and their isotopic contents in eight organs of laying hens at 35, 72, and 100 weeks. Moreover, the magnum proteome, amino acids in egg white, and egg white quality were analyzed in laying hens at three different ages using 4D proteomics techniques, an amino acid analyzer, and an egg quality analyzer. Across the organs, we identified varying distribution patterns among macroelements(Mg24, Ca43/44, K39, and P31), transition metals(Zn64/66, Cu63/65, Fe56/57, and Mn55), and toxic elements(Pb208, Ba137, and Sr86). We observed an organ-specific aging pattern characterized by the accumulation of toxic elements(Pb208, Ba137, and Sr86) and calcification in the small intestine. Additionally, a decrease in the utilization of essential trace elements selenium(Se78/82) and manganese(Mn55) was noted in the oviduct. By analyzing ionome in tandem with egg quality, egg white amino acids, and proteome, we unveiled that the reduction of selenium and manganese concentrations in the magnum during the aging process affected amino acid metabolism, particularly tryptophan metabolism, thereby inhibiting the amino acid synthesis in the magnum. Furthermore, it accelerated the senescence of magnum cells through necroptosis activation, leading to a decline in the albumen secretion function of the magnum and subsequently reducing egg white quality.Overall, this study provides insights into the evolution of 35 elements and their isotopes across 8 organs of laying hens with age.It also reveals the elemental composition, interactions, and utilization patterns of these organs, as well as their correlation with egg white quality. The present study highlights the significance of ionome and offers a comprehensive perspective on the selection of ionome for regulating the aging of laying hens. | Guang Li Yuqing Feng Jian Cui Qihang Hou Tanfang Li Meiting Jia Zhengtian lv Qiuyu Jiang Ying Wang Ming Zhang Lin Wang Zengpeng Lv Junyou Li Yuming Guo Bingkun Zhang | 2023 | Science China(Life Sciences)2023,66,9: | 0 |
| 20 | The morphological diversity of pollen in the genus Gossypium显示文摘Background Plant pollen has diverse morphological characteristics that can be consistently passed down from generation to generation.Information on pollen morphology is thus immensely important for plant classification and identification.In the genus Gossypium,however,in-depth research on pollen morphology is lacking,with only few reports on limited cotton species.To evaluate the diversity of pollen in Gossypium,we therefore conducted a comprehensive analysis of the pollen morphology of 33 cotton species and varieties using scanning electron microscopy.Results The 33 analyzed cotton samples exhibited common pollen morphological features,including spherical shapes,radial symmetry,echination,panporation,and operculation,while the pollen size,spine shape,spine density and length showed distinctive features.Pollen size varied significantly among species,with diameters ranging from62.43 μm in G.harknessii to 103.41 μm in G.barbadense.The exine had an echinate sculptural texture,and spines were mostly conical or sharply conical but occasionally rod-like.Spine density varied from 173 in G.incanum to 54 in G.gossypioides,while spine length ranged from 3.53 μm in G.herbaceum to 9.47 μm in G.barbadense.In addition,the 33cotton species and varieties were grouped at a genetic distance of 3.83 into three clusters.Cluster Ⅰ comprised five allotetraploid AD-genome cotton species,four D-genome species,and one K-genome species.Cluster Ⅱ included 13diploid species from A,B,D,E,and G genomes,whereas Cluster Ⅲ only consisted one E-genome species G.incanum.Conclusions Although pollen characteristics alone are not enough to resolve taxonomic and systematic relationships within the genus Gossypium,our results add to knowledge on palynomorphology and contribute to phenological information on these taxa.Our findings should aid future systematic and phylogenetic studies of the Gossypium genus. | CAI Xiaoyan HOU Yuqing MUHAMMAD Umer Jawad WANG Heng XU Yanchao ZHENG Jie WANG Yuhong LIU Fang ZHOU Zhongli HUA Jinping WANG Kunbo | 2023 | Journal of Cotton Research2023,6,1: | 0 |
