Identifying the wetlands of international importance in Beibu Gulf along the East Asian – Australasian Flyway, based on multiple citizen science datasets - Ningxin Tang; Yanju Ma; Sixin Li; Yizhu Yan; Cheng Cheng; Gang Lu; Fei Li; Liuxuan Lv; Peilin Qin; Hoai Bao Nguyen; Quang Hao Nguyen; Trong Trai Le; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The Beibu Gulf (Gulf of Tonkin, Vinh Bac Bo in Vietnamese), located midway along the East Asian-Australasian Flyway (EAAF), is a critical stopover and wintering region for migratory waterbirds. This transboundary coastal region, spanning between China and Vietnam, harbors diverse wetland habitats that provide refuge to waterbird species, including highly threatened species such as the spoon-billed sandpiper (CR) and the black-faced spoonbill (EN). However, the scarcity of comprehensive assessments regarding waterbird abundances, distribution, key wetland habitats, and regional threats hinders our understanding of its conservation significance at the flyway level. Further research is needed to address these knowledge gaps and facilitate effective conservation efforts in the Beibu Gulf. By synthesizing accessible citizen science datasets and published records from wetland sites in south China and northeast Vietnam, we concluded that at least 97 waterbird species used the Gulf’s wetlands during their annual cycle. Among surveys conducted from 2014 to 2022, 5 and 11 waterbird species were considered as first and second class protected species under the National Key Protected Wild Animal List in China; 2 species were listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List, 4 as Endangered and 2 as Vulnerable, underlying the critical importance of the Beibu Gulf for the survival of these species. Our study identified 25 sites in the Beibu Gulf that met the criteria for designation as internationally important wetlands. Alarmingly, less than a quarter (n = 5, or 20%) of these sites benefit from national or international protection. Localized threats, including aquatic resource harvesting, hunting, and aquaculture/fisheries, were widespread in the region. This study provides a crucial scientific baseline for continued waterbird monitoring, site prioritization, and the development of effective habitat management plans to conserve vital coastal wetland habitats in the Beibu Gulf in China and Vietnam.

Aim This study aimed to infer the allocation of belowground net primary productivity (BNPP) to sequential soil depths down to 2 m across the globe at a 1 km resolution and assess underlying environmental drivers. Location Global. Time Period Contemporary (1932–2017). Major Taxa Studied Terrestrial plants. Methods Global datasets including field net primary production (NPP, i.e., the difference between plant assimilated and respired carbon) from 725 soil profiles, root biomass and its depth distribution from 559 soil profiles were compiled and used to infer the depth distribution of BNPP across the globe and digitally map depth‐resolved BNPP globally at 1 km resolution. Drivers of the depth distribution of BNPP were evaluated using machine learning‐based models. Results Global average BNPP allocated to the 0–20 cm soil layer is estimated to be 1.1 Mg C ha −1 yr −1 , accounting for ~60% of total BNPP. Across the globe, the depth distribution of BNPP varies largely, and more BNPP is allocated to deeper layers in hotter and drier regions. Edaphic, climatic and topographic properties (in order of importance) explain >80% of such variability; and the direction and magnitude of the influence of individual properties are soil depth‐ and biome‐dependent. Main Conclusions The findings suggest that mean annual temperature and precipitation are the two most important factors regulating BNPP across the globe. Soil properties such as soil actual evaporation and total nitrogen also play a vital role in regulating the depth distribution of BNPP. The maps of BNPP provide global benchmarks of depth‐resolved BNPP for the prediction of whole‐profile soil carbon dynamics across biomes.

Long-term hypoxia and reoxygenation induced oxidative stress lead to immunosuppression and apoptosis in golden pompano (Trachinotus blochii) - Yue Gu; Jun Long Sun; Fu Cheng Yao; Tian Jiang; Chun Xiu Jin; Li Ping Shi; Shu Kui Sun; Fei Biao Song; Jian Luo (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The fluctuations of dissolved oxygen (DO) often lead to hypoxia in aquaculture, which has a huge adverse impact on fish. This study mainly investigated the effects of long-term hypoxia on oxidative stress, immune response, and cell apoptosis in the liver of golden pompano ( Trachinotus blochii ), which is not tolerant to hypoxia. So we conducted a 14 day low oxygen stress experiment on the golden pompano with a DO of 3.0 ± 0.2 mg/L, then restore the DO to normal levels and continue the 14 day reoxygenation experiment. Results showed that hypoxia and reoxygenation led to significant changes in liver structure. During hypoxia and reoxygenation, the expression of oxidative stress related genes ( SOD1 , SOD2 , GSH-Px , and CAT ) and levels of antioxidant enzymes (CAT and MDA) in the liver were increased. Liver lysozyme activity and the relative expression of the pro-inflammatory factors interleukin ( IL)-1β were significantly increased, but the expression of IL-34 was down-regulated during hypoxia. The expression of IL-12β was significantly increased during reoxygenation. The expression of anti-inflammatory factor IL -11 was decreased duringreoxygenation. The expression of toll like receptors ( TLRs ) -7, -8, and -9 increases after hypoxia and decreases after reoxygenation, indicating that both hypoxia and reoxygenation affect the immune response. In addition, during hypoxia and reoxygenation, TUNEL-positive signals increased, the bcl2/bax ratio decreased, the expression levels of caspases-3 and -8 were significantly up-regulated during hypoxia, and expression levels of caspases-9 was up-regulated during reoxygenation. In summary, hypoxia and reoxygenation can cause oxidative stress, induce inflammatory reactions, inhibit immune processes, activate apoptosis, and lead to liver damage of the golden pompano, which may be irreversible.

Three-Dimensional Ultrasonic Reverse-Time Migration Imaging of Submarine Pipeline Nondestructive Testing in Cylindrical Coordinates - Daicheng Peng; Fei Cheng; Xiaoyu She; Yunpeng Zheng; Yongjie Tang; Zhuo Fan (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Submarine pipelines are a safe and energy-efficient mode of gas transport. However, due to the complex manufacturing process and harsh operating environment, submarine pipelines are subject to fatigue cracks under long-term cyclic loading. A comprehensive and high-precision characterization strategy for submarine pipelines can effectively prevent potential safety hazards and have significant economic and social repercussions. As a matter of fact, pipeline defects cannot be reliably detected with current traditional 2D methods. On the other hand, in ultrasonic testing, cylindrical geometry increases the complexity of the 3D wave field in the submarine pipeline space and significantly influences the accuracy of the detection results. In this paper, we put forward a novel method for 3D ultrasonic image testing that is suitable for cylindrical coordinates. In order to accurately simulate the ultrasonic signal received from pipelines, we generalize the 3D staggered-grid finite-difference method from Cartesian coordinates to cylindrical ones and simulate the full wave field in the 3D pipeline space. Then, signal processing is performed on the ultrasound simulation records, and 3D reverse-time migration imaging of submarine pipeline defects can be effectively achieved using the reverse-time migration method and cross-correlation imaging conditions. The results obtained from simulations and real field data show that the proposed method provides high-quality 3D imaging of defects in pipelines, taking into account multiple scattering and mode conversion information at the bottom of the defects.

Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is a complex disease that affects billions of people worldwide. Currently, effective etiological treatment of COVID-19 is still lacking; COVID-19 also causes damages to various organs that affects therapeutics and mortality of the patients. Surveillance of the treatment responses and organ injury assessment of COVID-19 patients are of high clinical value. In this study, we investigated the characteristic fragmentation patterns and explored the potential in tissue injury assessment of plasma cell-free DNA in COVID-19 patients. Through recruitment of 37 COVID-19 patients, 32 controls and analysis of 208 blood samples upon diagnosis and during treatment, we report gross abnormalities in cfDNA of COVID-19 patients, including elevated GC content, altered molecule size and end motif patterns. More importantly, such cfDNA fragmentation characteristics reflect patient-specific physiological changes during treatment. Further analysis on cfDNA tissue-of-origin tracing reveals frequent tissue injuries in COVID-19 patients, which is supported by clinical diagnoses. Hence, our work demonstrates and extends the translational merit of cfDNA fragmentation pattern as valuable analyte for effective treatment monitoring, as well as tissue injury assessment in COVID-19.

Seasonal distribution of the early life stages of the small yellow croaker ( Larimichthys polyactis ) and its dynamic controls adjacent to the Changjiang River Estuary - Min Xu; Yihe Wang; Zunlei Liu; Yong Liu; Yi Zhang; Linlin Yang; Fei Wang; Hui Wu; Jiahua Cheng (Fisheries Oceanography, 2023)
The distribution of the early life stages of Larimichthys polyactis indicates the availability of suitable spawning and nursing grounds and enables a better understanding of the distribution of its geographic subpopulations and isolation. Large‐scale quantitative ichthyoplankton surveys of L. polyactis were performed from March to July 2018, and a numerical hydrodynamic model was applied to explore the spatiotemporal distribution and habitats of L. polyactis early life stages adjacent to the Changjiang River Estuary. Two distinct early life stage distribution patterns were found. One occurred during March and April in the deep waters seaward of the Changjiang River bottom plume front, to the east and southeast of the Changjiang River Estuary. The other occurred in May and June throughout the entire water column in coastal waters to the east and north of the Changjiang River Estuary. Rising seasonal temperatures, and the local dynamic processes such as the Changjiang River plume, determined the transitions between the two distribution patterns. A potential fish larval migration route from the southern deep shelf waters to the northern coastal waters within the motor‐trawl prohibition line was suggested. This study contributes to our understanding of the mixture of habitats used by the two L. polyactis subpopulations in the southern Yellow Sea and the East China Sea.

Erosion and accretion of salt marsh in extremely shallow water stages - Dezhi Chen; Jieping Tang; Fei Xing; Jun Cheng; Mingliang Li; Yiyi Zhang; Benwei Shi; Lianqiang Shi; Ya Ping Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Salt marshes, which commonly exist on the upper tidal flat, provide a natural barrier against sea level rise and coastal storm. The extremely shallow water stages (water depth< 0.2 m), including the initial stage of flood tides and the last stage of ebb tides, can induce a significant impact on sediment dynamics of saltmarshes and associated tidal flats, despite lasting for only a short time (around 10 min), which has been less studied. In this study, two parallel field sites were established to quantify erosion-accretion processes and morphological changes during extremely shallow water stages in salt marshes within Doulonggang tidal flat along the Jiangsu coast. Our results revealed that obvious accretion occurred during extremely shallow water stages, with a total deposition amount of +33.8 mm in vegetated areas and +20.8 mm in unvegetated areas. In contrast, erosion dominated during deep water stages, with a total erosion amount of -22.3 mm at the vegetated site and -32.7 mm at the unvegetated site. The magnitude of bed-level change during extremely shallow water stages was 7~8 times greater than that during deep water stages, even though the duration of extremely shallow water stages was only about 14~15% of the entire tidal cycle. Furthermore, strong winds significantly impacted deposition during extremely shallow water stages compared to calm weather. During the strong wind period, the average bed level change rate reached +0.15 mm/min and +0.12 mm/min in the vegetated and unvegetated areas, respectively. This is significantly higher than the +0.05 mm/min and +0.01 mm/min during the calm weather period. These results reveal that extremely shallow water stages have substantial impacts on sedimentary processes, which are vital for the maintenance of tidal flat systems.

LncRNA PVT1 influences breast cancer cells glycolysis through sponging miR-145-5p - Huan Qu; Xingxing Li; Fei Chen; Min Zhang; Xun Lu; Yun Gu; Mingming Lv; Cheng Lu (Genes & Genomics, 2023)
Background Long-non-coding RNA PVT1 (lncRNA PVT1) can be used as an oncogenic regulatory non-coding RNA (ncRNA) for many cancers. However, its function and mechanism in breast cancer (BRCA) are still not clearly elucidated. Objective We attempt to explain the mechanism of PVT1’s role in breast cancer from different perspectives. Methods We analyzed the expression of PVT1 and its correlation with the breast cancer related clinical data in the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. We used PVT1 overexpression and knockdown lentivirus to infect breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cell line for cell function verification, in vitro using CCK-8 to measure proliferation, flow cytometry to measure apoptosis, transwell test to measure invasion and migration ability, detecting cell extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) to assess glycolysis metabolism and explore the biological functions of PVT1 in breast cancer cells. Transcriptome sequencing was used to analyze the changes of related genes in cells after overexpression of PVT1. In vivo we used a xenograft model to study the effect of PVT1 on breast cancer. Results PVT1 was up-regulated in breast cancer tissues and was positively correlated with the clinical stage of breast cancer patients. Overexpression of PVT1 in vitro promoted cell proliferation, migration and invasion, and promoted tumor growth in vivo. Knockdown of PVT1 led to the opposite biological consequence. Further bioinformatics analysis showed that PVT1 changes the glycolysis metabolism of tumors through regulation of glycolysis-related genes. In addition, the expression of miR-145-5p is negatively correlated with PVT1. We consider the possibility of PVT1 promoting cell proliferation and metastasis by regulating the aerobic glucose metabolism in breast cancer cells through sponging the miR-145-5p. Conclusion Our results reveal a potential pathway for competing endogenous RNA to regulate breast cancer glucose metabolism. PVT1 regulates glycolysis related genes expression by competitively binding to endogenous miR-145-5p in breast cancer cells to change the metabolic phenotype. This may Provide new ideas for precise molecular therapy targets for breast cancer.

Seasonal pollution and surface characteristics of microplastics in surface water in the Wanzhou section of the Three Gorges Reservoir, China - Ying He; Qian Huang; Qilong Wang; Mingfeng Tang; Xiaoyu Lu; Fei Cheng; Guosheng Xiao (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2023)
The pollution of freshwater environments with microplastics (MPs) has attracted increasing attention owing to their threats to aquatic ecosystems and human health. Here, we sampled and analyzed MPs from mainstream, tributary, and backwater areas in the Wanzhou section of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) in impoundment and flood periods. Microplastic pollution was the most severe in the backwater areas. The average abundance of MPs reached the highest value in the flood period (5.27±3.47×10 7 items km −2 ), which was 3–5 times that in the impoundment period. In the 0.3–5 mm size class, the 1–5 mm fraction was the most abundant, accounting for more than 81% in the flood period and 68% of the total MP particle abundance in the impoundment period in the mainstream and backwater areas. However, 0.3–1 mm MPs contributed more than 50% in the tributaries during the impoundment period. Polystyrene, polypropylene, and polyethylene MPs were detected in foam, fragment, sheet, and line-shaped MP particles. White, opaque, foamed polystyrene MPs contributed 32–81% to total MP particle abundance in the watershed. Microplastic particle surfaces showed signs of damage and oxidation, and ten different elements were found. Oxygen was clustered on the surface of foam and fragment MPs. Microplastic pollution was severe in the Wanzhou watershed. Especially in the backwater areas, oxidized MPs of variable shapes derived mainly from surface runoff in the flood period and sewage discharge in the impoundment period were abundant. The results of this study contribute to understanding seasonal pollution patterns and surface characteristics of MPs in the TGR and similar watersheds.

Claims surrounding exceptional longevity are sometimes disputed or dismissed for lack of credible evidence. Here, we present three DNA methylation-based age estimators (epigenetic clocks) for verifying age claims of centenarians. The three centenarian clocks were developed based on n = 7039 blood and saliva samples from individuals older than 40, including n = 184 samples from centenarians, 122 samples from semi-supercentenarians (aged 105 +), and 25 samples from supercentenarians (aged 110 +). The oldest individual was 115 years old. Our most accurate centenarian clock resulted from applying a neural network model to a training set composed of individuals older than 40. An epigenome-wide association study of age in different age groups revealed that age effects in young individuals (age < 40) are correlated ( r = 0.55) with age effects in old individuals (age > 90). We present a chromatin state analysis of age effects in centenarians. The centenarian clocks are expected to be useful for validating claims surrounding exceptional old age.

Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of highly stable and closed-loop noncoding RNA that are involved in the occurrence and development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, little is known about the therapeutic role of circRNAs in HCC. We found that high circ_0058051 expression was negatively correlated with the prognosis of HCC patients. Circ_0058051 knockdown attenuated the proliferation and colony formation, meanwhile inhibited migration of HCC cells. Circ_0058051 may be used as a target for HCC gene therapy. We synthesized a novel small interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery system, PEG-PCL-PEI-C14-SPIONs (PPPCSs), based on superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs). PPPCSs protected the siRNA of circ_0058051 from degradation in serum and effectively delivered siRNA into SMMC-7721 cells. Meanwhile, intravenous injection of the PPPCSs/siRNA complex could inhibit tumor growth in the subcutaneous tumor model. In addition, the nanocomposite is not toxic to the organs of nude mice. The above results show that PPPCSs/si-circ_0058051 complex may provide a novel and promising method of HCC treatment. Graphical abstract

The deep-sea lander is an important equipment for in-situ detection and monitoring. It is of great significance to understand the benthic boundary layer’s physical, chemical, and ecological environment. A 6000-meter double decelerating lander was created to meet the deployment requirements of underwater detection and monitoring, allowing for long-term in-situ monitoring of several benthic boundary layer components. Protection of the installed ocean bottom seismometer (OBS) is required due to the lander’s and OBS’s different impact resistances. The double decelerating unit enables the OBS to avoid colliding with the seabed when the lander lands and then collides with the seabed at a slow speed rather than the speed at which the lander falls, which is intended to safeguard OBS from damage. To ensure a safe deployment, the lander’s static analysis and simulation were performed using ANSYS, and the motion characteristics of the application process were derived. Numerous data have been obtained after the lander’s successful application in the South China Sea. The lander provides an investigation approach for marine science and geochemistry, complementing a technical approach to marine environmental investigations.

Predicting Sex-Related Transcripts in the Chinese Giant Salamander (Andrias davidianus): A Transcriptomics Study, Selection Gender for Preservation, Breeding and Reintroduction - Hu Zhao; Jiqin Huang; Cheng Fang; Hongying Ma; Han Zhang; Jie Deng; Wei Jiang; Fei Kong; Hongxing Zhang; Hong Liu; Qijun Wang (Fishes, 2022)
The Chinese giant salamander (Andrias davidianus) is the biggest extant and endangered amphibian, which has an incongruous sex ratio during the artificial breeding process and is sex indistinguishable in appearance. The sex development mechanism of this rare species thus needs to be explored. We therefore conducted this study to explore the molecular mechanisms of sex hallmarks or gonad maintenance genes for CGS. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the sexually mature male and female gonads of Chinese giant salamanders (CGSs) using RNA-seq technology and found a total of 15,063 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the testicular and ovarian tissues, of which 7973 (52.93%) were expressed in testicular and 7090 (47.07%) in ovarian tissues. Thirteen gonad DEGs were selected based on gene expression abundance and quantified in the muscle and skin tissues of both male and female CGSs. The results showed that these 13 DEGS, out of the 20 analyzed DEGs, were expressed in both the muscle and skin tissues and only two of them (Bmp15 and ZP3) were consistent in the muscle and skin compared to the gonads of CGSs of the two sexes. Overall, our study should provide an important reference for the sex-characteristics-related genes in this type of species, shedding new light on future research on this topic.

Three Mitochondrial Markers Reveal Genetic Diversity and Structure of Rock Carp (Procypris rabaudi) Endemic to the Upper Yangtze: Implications for Pre-release Genetic Assessment - Wenping He; Zhiling Dong; Tingting Ma; Huiguo Yan; Zhenxin Chen; Weizhi Yao; Fei Cheng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Rock carp, Procypris rabaudi, is a vulnerable carp endemic to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and included in the National Key Protected Wildlife in 2021 as a second-class aquatic animal. Evaluating the genetic makeup of released individuals before a restocking activity is carried out is essential, and a molecular marker with simple, rapid, and universal characteristics will be helpful to the evaluation. In this study, the genetic diversity and structure of rock carp from two representative hatcheries [Yibin (YB) and Wanzhou (WZ)] and a section of the upper Yangtze [Zhuyang (ZY)] were investigated using three mtDNA markers to select one marker instead of genetic evaluation of release. The results of three mtDNA markers revealed basically the same, indicating that the level of genetic diversity in rock carp was low, and there was significant genetic differentiation between the ZY and YB. Except for Cyt b–labeled YZ (0.81) and D-loop–labeled WZ (0.59), most of the haplotypic diversity values (h) were below 0.5, the nucleotide diversity values (π) of each group were lower than 0.5 × 10-2, and the haplotype number of rock carp is 1 to 4. Among the three mtDNA markers selected, D-loop marker detected higher diversity, more haplotypes, and private haplotypes, and significant differences between the YB and WZ. The results in this study pointed out the importance of pre-release genetic evaluation and the urgency of protecting the genetic diversity of rock carp, and the D-loop marker was preferentially selected in the pre-release genetic evaluation of fish. Hatchery release is the main strategy for the recovery of rock carp populations, similar to more than 20 endemic fish species in the upper Yangtze River. This study has guiding significance for the protection and restoration of other endemic fishes in the Yangtze River by hatchery release.

Molecular Cloning of Heat Shock Protein 60 (SpHSP60) from Schizothorax prenanti and the Gene Expressions of Four SpHSPs during Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) Infection - Jianlu Zhang; Jiqin Huang; Cheng Fang; Wanchun Li; Hu Zhao; Fei Kong; Han Zhang; Hongxing Zhang; Qijun Wang (Fishes, 2022)
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play a key role in anti-stress and immune processes and are associated with autoimmune diseases. In order to explore the immunological role of HSPs from Schizothorax prenanti (S. prenanti), SpHSP60 was cloned for the first time in this study, and the gene expressions of SpHSP27, SpHSP60, SpHSP70 and SpHSP90 in the hepatopancreas, head kidney, hindgut and spleen were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR) after treatment with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). The open reading frame of the SpHSP60 gene (GenBank accession number ON245159) is 1728 bp. It encodes a protein of 575 amino acids. Its C-terminus is a highly conserved and repeated glycine sequence, which is an important cofactor in ATP binding. Compared with the control group, most of the SpHSPs were significantly upregulated in the tissues examined at 12 or 24 h after LPS challenge. The most abundant expression of SpHSP70 was found in the head kidney at 24 h after LPS injection, followed by SpHSP27 in the spleen at 24 h; both of these SpHSPs displayed strong expression under the LPS stresses, about 20–70 fold more than that of SpHSP60 and SpHSP90. The temporal expression patterns of the four SpHSP genes were different in the four tissues examined. Taken together, the results suggest that SpHSP27, SpHSP60, SpHSP70 and SpHSP90 participate in innate immunity stimulated by LPS, and the response intensity of the SpHSPs was organ-specific, indicating they could provide early warning information against bacterial infection. The findings in our study will contribute to better understanding the biological processes and important roles of SpHSPs involved in defending against pathogenic bacterial challenge.

Quinoline, with the active site of 8‐hydroxyl, efficiently inhibits Micropterus salmoides rhabdovirus (MSRV) infection in vitro and in vivo - Bo‐Yang Li; Fei Yang; Zhong‐Yu Zhang; Yu‐Feng Shen; Tao Wang; Liang Zhao; Jia‐Cheng Qin; Fei Ling; Gao‐Xue Wang (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2022)
Micropterus salmoides rhabdovirus (MSRV) is an significant pathogen that causes high mortality and related economic losses in bass aquaculture. There is no effective or approved therapy to date. In this study, we evaluated the anti‐MSRV effects of 22 quinoline derivatives in grass carp ovary (GCO) cells. Among these compounds, 8‐hydroxyquinoline exhibited valid inhibition in decreasing MSRV nucleoprotein gene expression levels of 99.3% with a half‐maximal inhibitory concentrations (IC 50 ) value of 4.66 μM at 48 h. Moreover, 8‐hydroxyquinoline significantly enhanced a protective effect in GCO cells by reducing the cytopathic effect (CPE). By comparing the anti‐MSRV activity of 22 quinoline derivatives, we found that 8‐hydroxyquinoline possessed the efficient active site of 8‐hydroxyl and inhibited MSRV infection in vitro. For in vivo studies, 8‐hydroxyquinoline via intraperitoneal injection exhibited an antiviral effect in MSRV‐infected largemouth bass by substantially enhancing the survival rate by 15.0%. Importantly, the viral loads in the infected largemouth bass notably reduced in the spleen on the third days post‐infection. Overall, 8‐hydroxyquinoline was considered to be an efficient agent against MSRV in aquaculture.

The Effects of Ground and Treadmill Running on Energy Metabolism and Muscle Contractile Properties: A Randomized Cross-Over Study - Yuan Zhou; Jian-gang Chen; Xiao-long Li; Xin-liang Pan; Yi-zheng Zhou; Zheng-ao Li; Zhi-cheng Liang; Jia-min Long; Ming-ze Qin; Jing Zhang; Bing Shi; Bing-jun Wan; et al. (Journal of Science in Sport and Exercise, 2022)
Purpose This study aimed to compare the effects of ground and treadmill running on energy metabolism and muscle contractile properties, providing a basis for the general public to choose running venues. Methods Ten male college students (age, 20.10 ± 1.53 years; height, 176.20 ± 5.49 cm; weight, 72.14 ± 8.25 kg; body fat percent, 12.41% ± 4.65%) were recruited in this study. Energy expenditure (EE) was measured using the accelerometer (GT9X) combined with specific estimation equations. Average heart rate (HR) was measured using a heart rate band (Polar). Muscle contractile properties were assessed by measuring muscle displacement (Dm) and contraction velocity (Vc) using tensiomyography (TMG-S1). Blood glucose (Glu) and lactate (Lac) were measured by portable devices (eB-G and Lactate Scout). The running speed was 9 km/h and the duration was 25 min. Two-way ANOVA (protocol × time) was used to analyze the effect of running protocols on energy metabolism and muscle contractile properties. Results EE of treadmill running was significantly higher than EE of ground running (protocol main effect, P < 0.001), and HR of treadmill running was significantly higher than that of ground running in the first testing time (protocol simple effect, P = 0.026; protocol × time interaction P = 0.043). The decrease in Dm of the rectus femoris after treadmill running was significantly higher than that of ground running (protocol main effect, P = 0.009). The interaction of different running protocols and testing times on Lac was significant ( P = 0.025), but all results of the simple effects analysis were not statistically significant ( P > 0.05). Conclusion Our study found a difference in energy expenditure between treadmill and ground running at 9 km/h with duration of 25 min. In addition, treadmills are more likely to cause a decrease in muscle displacement distance of the rectus femoris measured after exercise than ground running. Future studies are needed to further investigate whether the differences are induced by internal metabolism or the environmental conditions of running.

Paeoniflorin ameliorates cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease via JNK/p53 signaling - Zhu-qing He; Peng-fei Huan; Li Wang; Jian-cheng He (Metabolic Brain Disease, 2022)
Paeoniflorin (PF) has numerous benefits, including anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptosis effects. However, it is not clear if it has neuroprotective effects against cognitive impairment (CI) in Parkinson’s disease (PD). Through network pharmacology, we identified probable targets as well as signal pathways through which PF might affect CI in PD. Then, we experimentally validated our findings. The core genes of the protein-protein interactions (PPI) network include MAPK8 (JNK), TP53, CASP3 (caspase-3), postsynaptic density protein-95 (PSD-95) and synaptophysin (SYN). Pathway enrichment analysis revealed that genes involved in apoptosis and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling were significantly enriched. Because JNK is a key mediator of p53-induced apoptosis, we wondered if JNK/p53 pathway influences the effects of PF against apoptosis in mouse model of PD. Molecular docking analysis showed that PF had good affinity for JNK/p53. The results of the experiments indicated that PF ameliorated behavioral impairments and upregulated the expression of the dopamine (DA) neurons, suppressed cell apoptosis in substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) of PD. Additionally, PF improved 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced neuronal injury by inhibiting apoptosis in hippocampal neurons of the CA1 and CA3, and upregulating PSD-95 as well as SYN protein levels. Similar protective effects were observed upon JNK/p53 pathway inhibition using SP600125. Overall, PF improved CI in PD by inhibiting JNK/p53 pathway.

Influence of the NAO on Wintertime Surface Air Temperature over East Asia: Multidecadal Variability and Decadal Prediction - Jianping Li; Tiejun Xie; Xinxin Tang; Hao Wang; Cheng Sun; Juan Feng; Fei Zheng; Ruiqiang Ding (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2022)
In this paper, we investigate the influence of the winter NAO on the multidecadal variability of winter East Asian surface air temperature (EASAT) and EASAT decadal prediction. The observational analysis shows that the winter EASAT and East Asian minimum SAT (EAmSAT) display strong in-phase fluctuations and a significant 60–80-year multidecadal variability, apart from a long-term warming trend. The winter EASAT experienced a decreasing trend in the last two decades, which is consistent with the occurrence of extremely cold events in East Asia winters in recent years. The winter NAO leads the detrended winter EASAT by 12–18 years with the greatest significant positive correlation at the lead time of 15 years. Further analysis shows that ENSO may affect winter EASAT interannual variability, but does not affect the robust lead relationship between the winter NAO and EASAT. We present the coupled oceanic-atmospheric bridge (COAB) mechanism of the NAO influences on winter EASAT multidecadal variability through its accumulated delayed effect of ∼15 years on the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) and Africa–Asia multidecadal teleconnection (AAMT) pattern. An NAO-based linear model for predicting winter decadal EASAT is constructed on the principle of the COAB mechanism, with good hindcast performance. The winter EASAT for 2020–34 is predicted to keep on fluctuating downward until ∼2025, implying a high probability of occurrence of extremely cold events in coming winters in East Asia, followed by a sudden turn towards sharp warming. The predicted 2020/21 winter EASAT is almost the same as the 2019/20 winter.

Ecdysis Triggering Hormone, Eclosion Hormone, and Crustacean Cardioactive Peptide Play Essential but Different Roles in the Molting Process of Mud Crab, Scylla paramamosain - Yan-Fei Zhao; Qi-Qiao Wen; Chun-Mei Ao; Wei Wang; Li-Li Shi; Cheng-Gui Wang; Siuming-Francis Chan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Molting behavior in insects is controlled by the ecdysis triggering hormone (ETH), eclosion hormone (EH) and the crustacean cardioactive peptide (CCAP). At present, the regulation of molting behavior in crustaceans remains unclear. Here, we studied the roles of ETH , EH , and CCAP in the molt regulation of the crab, Scylla paramamosain from their expression pattern and in vivo assays. The results showed that transcripts of ETH , EH , and CCAP were mainly localized in thoracic ganglia and fluctuated periodically with the molting cycle. When ETH or CCAP was knockdown at early premolt stage (D0), molting of crabs was interrupted and all animals died at late premolt stage (D2). While the EH gene was knock-down, most crabs were dead before D2. Injection of synthetic peptide for ETH or CCAP rescued ETH - or CCAP -gene knock-down crabs separately. However, none of peptides could rescue dsEH -injected crabs. At D0 stage, knockdown of ETH down-regulated the transcriptions of EH and CCAP ; while ETH was up-regulated when EH was knockdown. At D2 stage, ETH transcripts levels were reduced with the injection of dsEH but increased with the same dose of dsETH as crabs at D0 stage. Co-injection of ds ETH and ds EH down-regulated ETH at D2 stage. Results showed that ETH , EH , and CCAP play essential but different roles in molt regulation in mud crab. In summary, the result of this study contributes to the discovery of different molecular mechanisms between Insecta and Crustacea and may provide insight to develop fishery drugs that helps aquacultured crustaceans to molt successfully.

Mesoscale eddies play an important role in ocean energy and material transport. However, the effect of eddies on bacterial and eukaryotic community and their ecological effects remains unclear, regarding anticyclonic eddies (ACE). In this study, bacterial and eukaryotic community composition was examined across an ACE in the South China Sea, using high-throughput sequencing of the 16S rRNA and 18S rRNA gene. Environmental variables reflected the hydrographic characteristics of the ACE, which enhanced bacterial diversity and eukaryotic diversity in most water layers, relative to adjacent regions. Principal component analysis (PCoA) showed that bacterial and eukaryotic communities had certain different compositions between inside and outside the eddy above 75 m water. An obvious effect of the ACE was the increase in abundance and depth distribution of small photosynthetic and heterotrophic bacteria, such as SAR11, Prochlorococcus , Rhodospirillales and Oceanospirillales. While ACE decreased the relative abundance of nutrient-rich phytoplankton (Bacillariophyta and Mamiellophyceae), resulted in more growth space for other eukaryotes that prefer oligotrophic environment (especially Fungi, Dictyochophyceae, and Synurophyceae). Canonical correlation analysis (CCA) showed temperature, salinity, nitrate, phosphate and nitrite had significantly affected on microbial community. The special environment of ACE (especially temperature) shaped the composition of its specific microbe. This study shed important light on the effect of ACEs on environmental conditions to impact marine ecosystem structure.

A Physics-Informed Neural Network for the Prediction of Unmanned Surface Vehicle Dynamics - Peng-Fei Xu; Chen-Bo Han; Hong-Xia Cheng; Chen Cheng; Tong Ge (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
A three-degrees-of-freedom model, including surge, sway and yaw motion, with differential thrusters is proposed to describe unmanned surface vehicle (USV) dynamics in this study. The experiment is carried out in the Qing Huai River and the data obtained from different zigzag trajectories are filtered by a Gaussian filtering method. A physics-informed neural network (PINN) is proposed to identify the dynamic models of the USV. PINNs combine the advantages of data-driven machine learning and physical models. They can also embed the speed and steering models into the loss function, which can significantly retain all types of information. Compared with traditional neural networks, the results show that the PINN has better generalization ability in predicting the surge and sway velocities and rotation speed with only limited training data.

Distribution of Coomassie Blue Stainable Particles in the Pearl River Estuary, China, Insight Into the Nitrogen Cycling in Estuarine System - Cui-Ci Sun; Wei-Zhong Yue; You-Shao Wang; Wei-Hong He; Yi-Guo Hong; Fu-Lin Sun; Hao Cheng; Mei-Lin Wu; Zhao-Yu Jiang; Fei Jiao; Yu-Tu Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Distributions of Coomassie Blue stainable particles (CSP), the sources and transports, as well as their implications for nitrogen biogeochemical cycles in the Pearl River estuary (PRE) were investigated during two cruises in August 2016 and January 2017. CSP color concentrations (CSP concentration determined spectrophotometrically) were 73.7–685.3 μg BSA eq L –1 [μg Bovine serum albumin (BSA) equivalent liter –1 ] in August 2016 and 100.6–396.4 μg BSA eq L –1 in January 2017, respectively. CSP concentrations were high in low-salinity waters (<5), and declined from the river to the middle estuary by 80% in the wet season and 55.6% in the dry season, respectively, then increased again in the lower estuary due to high primary production. CSP concentrations were mainly associated with chlorophyll a (Chl a ) concentration except for the turbid mixing zone, suggesting that autochthonous phytoplankton production served as the primary source of CSP in the PRE. The concentrations of nitrogen (N) as CSP in the PRE were comparable to the nitrogen content of particulate hydrolysable amino acids (PHAA). Pictures of CSP taken by microscopy and the correlation between composition of PHAA and the ratio of Chl a /CSP color showed that CSP were relatively degraded due to delivery of old terrestrial protein to river section and extensive microbial degradation during mixing at the upper and middle parts of the estuary, whereas CSP in lower estuary appeared to be more labile due to higher fresh algal production. The contribution of CSP nitrogen (CSP-N) to the particulate nitrogen (PN) pool was 34.98% in summer and 30.8% in winter. The conservative estimate of CSP-N input flux in the Pearl River Delta was about 6 × 10 6 mol N d –1 . These results suggested that CSP was a significant pool of organic nitrogen in the PRE. The study of CSP composition in terms of nitrogen provides new insight into the roles of CSP on nitrogen biogeochemical processes in the turbid and productive estuarine system.
