Introduction Offshore wind farms (OWFs) are vital for sustainable energy. The underwater foundations of those wind turbines provide a complex structure that creates new habitats and attracts fishes. However, whether OWFs had the same ecological function as purpose-built artificial reef (AR) and how they alter the original fish community remain unclear. Methods To evaluate the spatial and temporal variations in fish assemblages, we conducted a multi-part investigation at the Formosa Wind Farm, located off the coast of Miaoli County, Taiwan. Temporal changes were assessed through SCUBA surveys at turbine foundations in 2017, 2018, and 2025, with the 2025 data allowing for a direct comparison with the nearby existing artificial reefs. To assess spatial effects, pole-and-line surveys were conducted from Apr to Oct in 2024 and 2025 at varying distances from the turbines. Results Our investigation documented 86 species of reef-associated fishes exclusively within 50 m of turbine foundations; none were caught in the surrounding sandy areas or documented in pervious fishery records. The results demonstrated that fish assemblages around the turbine piles changed successively over the years. Although the species composition in 2025 differed between the OWF and the established AR sites, key ecological metrics such as species richness, diversity, and trophic structures showed no significant differences. Discussion These findings demonstrated that the underwater structure of offshore wind turbines can function as AR, creating novel reef habitats and supporting reef-associated fish community within a finite spatial extent. Overall, OWFs may provide ecological benefits in addition to renewable energy, highlighting their potential role in balancing energy development with marine conservation.

Sevoflurane (Sevo) anaesthesia in children is linked to an increased incidence of postoperative emergence agitation (EA) and potential neurotoxicity in developing brains. However, the specific risks of subanaesthetic foetal or neonatal exposure to Sevo remain unclear. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of combining dexmedetomidine (Dex) with Sevo to manage EA in paediatric anaesthesia. A systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized controlled clinical trials involving children under 8 years old revealed that Dex significantly reduces EA incidence when administered via intravenous, perineural, and intranasal routes. Using in utero electroporation, we found that pregnant mice exposed to 2.5% Sevo at embryonic days 14.5 and 15.5 exhibited transient neuronal migration deficits, with 25% of neurons delayed in deeper cortical layers. However, these neurons migrated to the cortex by postnatal day 8. Neonatal mice exposed to 2.5% Sevo experienced a 10% reduction in dendritic spine density in adolescence, associated with impaired somatosensory function, as assessed by the Von Frey test. Remarkably, Dex pretreatment ameliorated these pathological and functional changes. Thus, foetal or neonatal Sevo exposure can delay neuronal migration and reduce dendritic spine density. Dex co-administration effectively mitigates these adverse outcomes, supporting its potential use in paediatric anaesthesia to protect developing brains. Graphical abstract

Experimental Study on Mechanism of Using Complex Nanofluid Dispersions to Enhance Oil Recovery in Tight Offshore Reservoirs - Zhisheng Xing; Xingyuan Liang; Guoqing Han; Fujian Zhou; Kai Yang; Shuping Chang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2026)
Horizontal wells combined with multi-stage fracturing are key techniques for extracting tight oil formation. However, due to the ultra-low permeability and porosity of reservoirs, energy depletion occurs rapidly, necessitating external supplements to sustain production. During the hydraulic fracturing process, large volumes of fracturing fluid are injected into reservoirs, increasing its pressure to a certain extent. However, due to the oil-wet nature of the formation, the fracturing fluid cannot penetrate the rock, failing to enhance oil recovery during the shut-in period. Surfactant-based nanofluids have been introduced as fracturing fluid additives to reverse rock wettability, thereby boosting imbibition-driven recovery. Although the imbibition has been studied to inspire the tight oil recovery, few studies have demonstrated the imbibition in enhanced fossil hydrogen energy, which further promotes the imbibition recovery. In this paper, complex nanofluid dispersions (CND) have been proved to enhance the tight reservoir pressure. Through contact angle and imbibition experiments, it is shown that CND can transform oil-wet rock to water-wet, reduce the adhesion of oil, and improve the ultimate oil recovery through the imbibition effect. Then, core flow testing experiments were conducted to show CND can decrease the flow resistance and improve the swept area of the injected fluid. In the end, pressure transmission tests were conducted to show CND can enhance the formation energy and production after fracturing. Results demonstrate that CND enables the fracturing fluid to travel further away from the hydraulic fractures, thus decreasing the depletion of tight formation pressure and maintaining a higher oil production rate. Results help optimize the design of the hydraulic fracturing of tight offshore reservoirs.

STAT3 Signaling Mediates Agomelatine Restoration of Prefrontal Cortex Synaptic Plasticity in Chronic Social Defeat Stress Mice - Chi-Wei Lee; Han-Fang Wu; Hsin-Ju Yen; Lun-De Liao; Wei-Chang Mao; Hsun-Shuo Chang; Yih-Fung Chen; Chia-Hsien Lin; Cheng-Ta Li; Hui-Ching Lin (Molecular Neurobiology, 2026)
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a major public health issue worldwide. It not only causes an increased socio-economic burden, but also negatively affects personal lives. It has been shown that depression leads to impairments in synaptic plasticity, such as impaired long-term potentiation (LTP) in the prefrontal cortex (PFC). A recent study reported that administration of agomelatine, a melatonin receptor agonist and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) 2C antagonist, which may be involved in synaptic functions, for 1 week has a rapid antidepressive effect. Moreover, the mechanism of Glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β), regulated by signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), may play an important role in the synapse-related pathological mechanisms of depression. Hence, we used chronic social defeat stress (CSDS) as an animal model of depression, to investigate whether synaptic plasticity impairment in depression, improved by agomelatine, is mediated through the STAT3 mechanism. The results showed that depressive-like behaviors were reversed after 1 week of agomelatine treatment. Moreover, the impairment of LTP and alteration of spine density were reversed by agomelatine in the PFC. We further applied AG490, an inhibitor of STAT3, to demonstrate that the therapeutic mechanism of agomelatine improves synaptic plasticity through STAT3-regulated phosphorylation of GSK3β. Taken together, these results demonstrated that STAT3-regulated downstream molecules are potential therapeutic targets for the rapid action of antidepressants.

Oxymatrine Alleviates Cerebral Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury By Targeting HDAC1 to Regulate Mitochondria-Related Autophagy and Oxidative Stress - Chang-Sheng Ma; Bo Han; Yu-Xi Liu; Chang-Ku Shi; Dong-Lun Li; Jin-Fen Guo; Min Bai; Shu-Chen Meng; Li-Ying Zhang; Meng-Yuan Duan; Mao-Tao He (Molecular Neurobiology, 2026)
Oxymatrine (OMT), a major alkaloid extracted from Sophora flavescens, has been widely recognized for its anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties. However, its precise neuroprotective mechanisms in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we combined in vivo and in vitro models to investigate the therapeutic effects of OMT on cerebral I/R injury and glutamate-induced neuronal toxicity during the reperfusion process. In vivo, a mouse middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model was established to recapitulate I/R injury, whereas glutamate-exposed HT22 hippocampal neurons were utilized as an in vitro model to mimic excitotoxic damage. Bioinformatics analysis, integrated with molecular docking, identified histone deacetylase 1 (HDAC1) as a potential direct target of OMT. Subsequent experimental validation demonstrated that OMT attenuates I/R-induced brain damage by modulating HDAC1-mediated pathways involved in autophagy and oxidative stress regulation. OMT treatment significantly reduced infarct volume and improved neurological function in mice. At the cellular level, OMT suppressed mitochondrial apoptosis and reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, restored mitochondrial membrane integrity, and rebalanced mitochondrial dynamics by downregulating fission-related proteins (Fis1) and upregulating fusion markers (Mfn2). Additionally, OMT inhibited excessive autophagy through modulation of the PINK1/Parkin signaling pathway, as evidenced by decreased expression of LC3-II/I ratio, PINK1, Parkin, and NBR1, along with restored levels of P62.These findings suggest that OMT exerts its neuroprotective effects in cerebral I/R injury by targeting HDAC1, thereby alleviating oxidative stress and excessive autophagy. This study provides new mechanistic insights and supports OMT as a promising therapeutic candidate for ischemic stroke treatment. Graphical Abstract

AMPK Activation by ENERGI Ameliorates Behavioral and Synaptic Deficits in a Mouse Model of Autism - Ming-Chia Chu; Chi-Chun Wu; Yueh-Jung Chung; Chieh-Yu Chang; Han-Fang Wu; Sze-Chi Tsai; Tzu-Ning Peng; Tzu-Jung Yang; Hui-Ching Lin (Molecular Neurobiology, 2026)
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a neurodevelopmental disorder, is characterized by synaptic dysregulation as its underlying pathophysiological mechanism. AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), an intracellular energy sensor, plays a pivotal role in regulating synaptic integrity and function. Current treatments for ASD exhibit limited benefits in alleviating the core symptoms of ASD. Consequently, we investigated the therapeutic potential of ENERGI, a novel AMPK-activating compound, in a valproate (VPA)-induced mouse model of ASD. ENERGI was administered via drinking water to VPA-induced ASD offspring. After 7 days of treatment, ENERGI gradually alleviated social defects, repetitive behaviors, and emotional comorbidities in VPA-induced ASD offspring. At the synaptic level, ENERGI treatment restored aberrant plasticity, spine structure, and dendritic arborization in the hippocampus of VPA-induced ASD offspring. Notably, the curative effects of ENERGI in VPA-induced ASD offspring were equivalent to those of D-cycloserine (DCS), a known therapeutic candidate for ASD. Moreover, ENERGI demonstrated superior efficacy in restoring spine abnormalities than DCS. Mechanistically, 7-day ENERGI treatment reversed the reduction in AMPK phosphorylation, and normalized the elevated PSD95 and synaptic GluA2 levels in VPA-induced ASD offspring, whereas DCS treatment only rescued the synaptic GluA2 levels. Overall, these findings suggest that AMPK activation by ENERGI effectively reverses behavioral and synaptic deficits in a preclinical ASD model, supporting AMPK as a promising target for developing novel ASD therapies.

Age-dependent modulations of hemispheric small-world networks in different eye states: resting-state electroencephalogram research - Chang Xu; Chuqiao Li; Tong Cui; Shaoqi Li; Xiaodong Han; Boye Wen; Cuibai Wei (GeroScience, 2025)
Normal aging triggers substantial topological transformation within resting-state electroencephalography (rs-EEG) networks. Given that the small-world (SW) architecture of hemispheric EEG networks may reflect an evolutionarily and developmentally optimized organization, investigating their modulations with age offers critical insights into the dynamic reorganization of functional connectivity (FC) patterns throughout adulthood. Utilizing rs-EEG data from a single-site public repository collected under eyes-closed and eyes-open conditions, we employed graph-theory methods to delineate age-related alterations in the SW architecture of hemispheric functional networks across a broad adult age range (20–70 years). In 539 cognitively intact individuals, undirected weighted FC networks were constructed using eLORETA-based lagged linear connectivity for each hemisphere and three subnetworks: default mode network (DMN), frontal network (FN), and attentional network (AN). Further quantitative analyses revealed that age-related changes in SW metrics were observed exclusively in the right hemisphere, evident during eyes-closed rest and in network reconfiguration upon eye opening (ΔSW). Right-hemispheric SW and ΔSW showed frequency- and network-specific modulation with age: in the alpha2 band, all three subnetworks exhibited increasing trends, with U-shaped trajectories in DMN and AN and a linear rise in FN. In other frequency bands, specific SW metrics displayed an inverted-U curve relationship with age (DMN: alpha1 SW, delta ΔSW; FN: gamma SW; AN: theta, alpha1, gamma SW, theta ΔSW) in later adulthood, whereas beta2 SW and gamma ΔSW in FN decreased linearly. These findings revealed a right-lateralized pattern of age-related changes in intrinsic SW architecture and provided an eyes-state-dependent baseline for evaluating hemispheric network impairments in age-related neuropsychiatric disorders.

Revision of the Armoreye dory genus Zenion (Zeiformes: Zeniontidae) in the South China Sea, with a description of a new species - Yen‐Ting Lin; Chia‐Hao Chang; Yu‐San Han; Chien‐Hsiang Lin (Journal of Fish Biology, 2025)
This study describes a new species of armoreye dory, Zenion boops sp. nov., from Dongsha Island, Taiwan, as part of a comprehensive revision of the genus Zenion in the South China Sea. The new species is clearly distinguishable from its tropical congeners, Z. hololepis and Z. japonicum , based on a combination of distinct morphological features, meristic counts, otolith morphology and c oxidase subunit I ( COI ) gene sequences. Z. boops is characterized by a smooth second dorsal spine, a long first dorsal spine, 30–35% of second (longest) dorsal spine, a small and narrow notch at the symphysis of the maxilla, and a relatively large eye diameter, 55–61% of head length. Furthermore, otolith morphology and phylogenetic analyses based on partial sequences of the cytochrome COI gene reveal significant genetic divergence between this new species and its congeners. With the addition of Z. boops , the genus Zenion now includes four valid species. We also present an identification key for all Zenion species and provide detailed descriptions of their otoliths. Also, we provide data that show that Z . hololepis is restricted to the Atlantic Ocean.

Drivers of Sea Level Variability in the Yellow Sea and East Sea (1993–2021): A 29-Year Decomposition Using Satellite Altimetry and Reanalysis Data - MyeongHee Han; Yeon S. Chang; Jeseon Yoo; Hak Soo Lim (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
Understanding and monitoring regional sea level (SL) variability in semi-enclosed marginal seas such as the Yellow Sea (YS) and East Sea (ES) are essential for climate impact assessment, coastal risk management, and regional model validation. This study presents a 29-year (1993–2021) observational analysis of SL and sea level differences (SLDs) around the Korean Peninsula, primarily based on gridded satellite altimetry and complemented by atmospheric and ocean reanalysis datasets. We implemented a reproducible decomposition framework that partitions satellite-derived monthly SL variations into two primary components: a local steric term driven by surface net heat flux, and a residual term representing lateral oceanic transport and other dynamic effects. Results derived from absolute dynamic topography (ADT) climatology revealed pronounced seasonal variability in SLDs between the YS and ES, with peaks in September and a minimum in December. In September, lateral transport contributed to SL increases of approximately 2.1 cm in the YS and 2.8 cm in the ES, whereas in December, atmospheric cooling and enhanced eastward wind stress dominated SL decline in the ES, accompanied by transport-related SL reduction observed in the YS. Furthermore, the relationship between monthly mean SL and inferred volume transport through the Korea, Tsugaru, and Soya Straits revealed region-specific correlations that highlight the spatial complexity of marginal sea dynamics. By integrating multiple freely available datasets and emphasizing seasonal-to-interannual climatology, this study provides a transparent and transferable framework for decomposing sea level variability in the Northwest Pacific.

Focal Mechanism of 2020–2025 Mw > 5.0 Earthquake Sequence in Bárðarbunga Volcanic Zone, Iceland, and Its Implications for Magma Inflow Activity - Benhao Hou; Han Li; Xu Chang; Jinlai Hao; Suxiang Zhang; Qing Ye (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
Iceland is an emergent segment of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, and the Bárðarbunga volcano lies in central Iceland beneath the Vatnajökull glacier, the largest glacier in Europe. Geodetic and seismic observations indicate persistent post-eruptive inflation since the 2014–2015 intense volcanic eruption at Bárðarbunga, revealing ongoing subsurface magmatic activity. To investigate details of the magma inflow process and monitor possible volcanic eruption, we studied focal mechanisms of seven earthquakes (with moment magnitude Mw > 5.0) that occurred from 2020 to 2025 in the Bárðarbunga volcanic zone, using the generalized Cut and Paste (gCAP) moment tensor inversion method. All inversions were checked and examined using the bootstrap uncertainty analysis. According to the results, all seven events exhibit significant positive non-double-couple components (35–58%), with centroid depths ranging from 3 to 9 km, within the typical brittle–ductile transition zone in Iceland. Our results correspond with the GNSS deformation data and the focal mechanism study of previous earthquakes at Bárðarbunga. We also find that focal mechanisms in the Bárðarbunga volcano region may vary with depth: shallow (≤7 km) events result from magma chamber pressurization or tensile fracturing due to magma intrusion, and deep (~9 km) activity reflects magma emplacement or overpressure accumulation.

Dietary Clostridium butyricum and Alanyl-Glutamine Modulate Low-Fishmeal-Induced Growth Reduction, Intestinal Microbiota Disorders, Intestinal Inflammatory Injury, and Resistance Against Aeromonas salmonicida in Triploid Oncorhynchus mykiss - Siyuan Liu; Li Chen; Shuze Zhang; Yaling Wang; Shaoxia Lu; Shicheng Han; Haibo Jiang; Hongbai Liu; Chang’an Wang (Fishes, 2025)
Low-fishmeal feed is increasingly being adopted across the global aquaculture industry. This study evaluated dietary Clostridium butyricum and alanyl-glutamine (Ala-Gln) supplementation in juvenile triploid rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with a low-fishmeal diet. Four diets were tested: basal diet (SBM, 15% fishmeal and 21.6% soybean meal), SBM + 0.5% C. butyricum (CB), SBM + 1.0% Ala-Gln, and SBM + 0.5% C. butyricum + 1.0% Ala-Gln (CB-AG). Fish were fed in 500 L tanks in recirculating aquaculture systems for 8 weeks (62.52 ± 0.47 g). Each group comprised three tanks, with each tank housing 30 fish. Then 10 fish per tank were challenged with Aeromonas salmonicida. CB-AG showed significantly higher weight gain and specific growth rates than the SBM group (p

Hanging drop culture reprograms mesenchymal stem cell transcriptome to enhance cell delivery efficiency via attenuated pulmonary entrapment - Hsiang-Tzu Lee; Sheng-Yung Fu; Wei-Han Weng; Wei-Chen Chao; Yu-Pao Hsu; Nan-Ping Yang; Yu-Hsu Chen; Shau-Kwaun Chen; Chien-Wen Chang (Drug Delivery and Translational Research, 2025)
The three-dimensional (3D) culture system has emerged as an indispensable platform for modulating stem cell function in biomedicine, drug screening, and cell therapy. Despite a few studies confirming the functionality of 3D culture, the molecular factors underlying this process remain obscure. Here, we have utilized a hanging drop method to generate 3D spheroid-derived mesenchymal stem cells (3D MSCs) and compared them to conventionally 2D-cultured MSCs. The results showed that 3D MSCs exhibited distinct phenotypic features than 2D-cultured MSCs and expressed different transcriptional responses, as found from RNA-Seq analysis. Gene ontology (GO) annotations and KEGG pathway mapping pinpointed that the 3D MSCs responded more actively to incoming signals as they upregulated receptors and cytokine production while downregulating proteolysis-, cytoskeletal-, extracellular matrix-, and adhesion-related genes. Functionally, these MSCs also displayed enhanced chemotaxis and improved pulmonary transgression post-intravenous injection. This study provides mechanistic insights on addressing a significant limitation of MSC therapy: pulmonary entrapment after systemic delivery. Moreover, upregulated pluripotency-associated genes, such as Oct4, Sox2, and Nanog, suggest that the 3D MSCs possessed enhanced stemness and regenerative capacity. The results indicate that 3D spheroid culture reshapes MSC transcriptomic and functional profiles and emerges as a promising strategy for improving their therapeutic potential in regenerative medicine.

Developing a segment anything model-based framework for automated plot extraction - Han Sae Kim; Ismail Olaniyi; Anjin Chang; Jinha Jung (Precision Agriculture, 2025)
Purpose Automated plot extraction in agronomic research field trials is essential for high-throughput phenotyping and precision agriculture. Accurate delineation of plot boundaries enables reliable crop type classification, yield estimation, and crop health monitoring. However, traditional plot extraction methods rely heavily on manual digitization, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and prone to inconsistencies. This study aims to develop a Segment Anything Model (SAM)-based framework that automates plot extraction while maintaining high accuracy across diverse agricultural field conditions. Methods The proposed framework consists of mask generation, plot orientation estimation, and plot refinement. SAM is leveraged to generate plot masks, which are subsequently filtered and refined to ensure precise boundary delineation. The method is designed to function without the need for model training or fine-tuning, making it highly adaptable across different datasets. Results The framework was validated on five datasets, demonstrating robust performance under varying field conditions. The pixel-based evaluation yielded an average F1 score of 89.54%. For polygon-based evaluation, the framework achieved 99.71% precision at IoU=50% and an average precision of 68.51% across IoU thresholds from 50 to 95%, confirming its ability to accurately extract plot boundaries. A Canopeo-based regression analysis further demonstrated that the extracted plots provide more reliable phenotypic estimates compared to manually digitized ground reference data. Conclusions The proposed framework significantly reduces manual effort while ensuring high precision and scalability for large-scale phenotyping applications. By relying solely on RGB imagery and zero-shot segmentation, it enhances accessibility for real-world agricultural research. Future work will focus on extending the framework to irregular plot structures, diverse crop types, and computational optimizations for large-scale implementation.

CIDNet: A Maritime Ship Detection Model Based on ISAR Remote Sensing - Fei Liu; Boyang Liu; Hang Zhou; Song Han; Kunlin Zou; Wenjie Lv; Chang Liu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
Inverse synthetic aperture radar (ISAR) ship target detection is of great significance and has broad application prospects in scenarios such as protecting marine resources and maintaining maritime order. Existing ship target detection techniques, especially target detection methods and detection models in complex settings, have problems such as long inference time and unstable robustness, meaning that they can easily miss the best time for detecting ship targets and cause intelligence loss. To solve these problems, this study proposes a new ISAR target detection model for ships based on deep learning—Complex ISAR Detection Net (CIDNet). The model is based on the Boundary Box Efficient Transformer (BETR) architecture, which combines super-resolution preprocessing, a deep feature extraction network, a feature fusion technique, and a coordinate maintenance mechanism to improve the detection accuracy and real-time performance of ship targets in complex settings. The CIDNet improves the resolution of the input image via the super-resolution preprocessing technique, which enhances the rendering of details of ship targets in the image. The feature extraction part of the model combines the efficient feature extraction capability of YOLOv10 with the global attention mechanism of BETR. It efficiently combines information from different scales and levels through a feature fusion strategy. In addition, the model integrates a coordinated attention mechanism to enhance the focus on the target region and optimize the detection accuracy. The experimental results show that CIDNet exhibits stable performance on the test dataset. Compared with existing models such as YOLOv10 and Faster R-CNN, CIDNet improves precision, recall, and the F1 score, especially when dealing with smaller targets and complex background conditions. In addition, CIDNet achieves a detection frame rate of 63, demonstrating its fine real-time processing capabilities.
