The Biotoxic Effects of Ag Nanoparticles (AgNPs) on Skeletonema costatum, a Typical Bloom Alga Species in Coastal Areas - Ke Shi; Yuehong Yao; Jianliang Xue; Dongle Cheng; Bo Wang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
With the rapid development of nanotechnology, nanomaterials have been widely utilized in many industries and daily life applications due to their unique properties. However, their potential release and the human health/environmental consequences have raised public concern greatly. In this study, we compared the toxic effects of AgNPs and AgNO3 on Skeletonema costatum in 10, 100, and 500 μg·L−1 Ag treatments. In all the AgNP exposure experiments, cell membrane damage and growth inhibition occurred. However, the cellular damage only obviously appears on exposure to a high concentration of AgNO3. The antioxidant enzyme (SOD and CAT) activities and lipid peroxidation in Skeletonema costatum were also induced significantly in the AgNP treatments. In addition, the percentage of Ag release in seawater increased with the increase in AgNP concentrations (13%, 32% for 100 and 500 μg·L−1 AgNPs). Thus, the biotoxic effects of AgNPs were found to be due to a combination of the solubilization of particles into toxic metal ions and the nature of the nanoparticles. It was worth noting that the induction of oxidative stress and damage to the cell membrane comprised the dominant mechanism of toxicity for AgNPs. Therefore, the behavior of nanometals in seawater affects the biotoxic effect on the phytoplankton. These results shed light on the biological toxicity of nanometals and their possible toxicity mechanism.

Background We compared the bone microstructure and metabolism of the femoral heads in patients with osteoporosis (OP) and non-OP patients to investigate the pathologic mechanism of OP and guide clinical treatment. Methods and results From January 2020 to June 2021, we obtained femoral head samples from 30 patients undergoing hip replacement due to femoral neck fracture. All patients were women aged approximately 67 to 80 years (mean age, 74 years). According to the dual-energy X-ray results, the femoral head samples were divided into the OP (T< − 2.5) and non-OP (T > − 1.5) groups. Microcomputed tomography scanning, bone metrology analysis, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and Masson’s trichrome staining were used to compare the local bone trabecular microstructure changes. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR was performed to identify changes in the osteogenesis-related genes and the osteoclast-related genes in specific regions to reflect osteogenic and osteoclastic activities. Femoral heads with OP showed significant changes in the local bone microstructure. Bone density, bone volume fraction, and the number and thickness of the bone trabeculae decreased. Local bone metabolism was imbalanced in the areas with microstructural changes in femoral heads with OP, with increased osteoclast activity and decreased osteoblast activity. Conclusions Deterioration of bone microstructure is closely related to abnormal bone metabolism associated with the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in osteoporotic femoral heads. Promoting bone formation by improving local bone metabolism, enhancing osteogenic activity and inhibiting osteoclast activity may be a promising way of preventing local OP and osteoporotic fractures.

Global depth distribution of belowground net primary productivity and its drivers - Liujun Xiao; Guocheng Wang; Jinfeng Chang; Yaoyao Chen; Xiaowei Guo; Xiali Mao; Mingming Wang; Shuai Zhang; Zhou Shi; Yiqi Luo; Lei Cheng; Kailiang Yu; et al. (Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2023)
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.

A review of current effective COVID-19 testing methods and quality control - Lijia Cheng; Liang Lan; Murugan Ramalingam; Jianrong He; Yimin Yang; Min Gao; Zheng Shi (Archives of Microbiology, 2023)
COVID-19 is a highly infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which primarily affects the respiratory system and can lead to severe illness. The virus is extremely contagious, early and accurate diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 is crucial to contain its spread, to provide prompt treatment, and to prevent complications. Currently, the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is considered to be the gold standard for detecting COVID-19 in its early stages. In addition, loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LMAP), clustering rule interval short palindromic repeats (CRISPR), colloidal gold immunochromatographic assay (GICA), computed tomography (CT), and electrochemical sensors are also common tests. However, these different methods vary greatly in terms of their detection efficiency, specificity, accuracy, sensitivity, cost, and throughput. Besides, most of the current detection methods are conducted in central hospitals and laboratories, which is a great challenge for remote and underdeveloped areas. Therefore, it is essential to review the advantages and disadvantages of different COVID-19 detection methods, as well as the technology that can enhance detection efficiency and improve detection quality in greater details.

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.

Hcprismatin-14 of Hyriopsis cumingii, a novel matrix protein is crucial for framework recognition and crystal deposition during prismatic layer formation - Can Jin; Yihang Zhang; Kang Cheng; Rui Jiang; Shangning Jiang; Yezhong Shi; Gang Ren; Wen Luo (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Mollusk shells are characterized by hierarchical aggregation of calcium carbonate and organic matrix, and matrix protein is considered as a key active ingredient to understand shell biomineralization. In this study, a total of 21 proteins, including a novel matrix protein Hcprismatin-14 were identified in the EDTA-soluble matrix of the prismatic layer of the mussel Hyriopsis cumingii by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). The full length of Hcprismatin-14 cDNA was cloned from the mantle of H. cumingii . Hcprismatin-14 contains a high proportion of Gly, Tyr, Arg and Asp residues, their concentrated distribution forms three structurally characteristic regions: a Gly/Tyr-rich region, a WDD-repeat region and a C-terminal basic tail. Hcprismatin-14 expression was high in mantle edge tissue in a tissue-specific analysis, and during disordered crystal deposition in a saibo transplantation assay. Knocking down Hcprismatin-14 expression with double-stranded RNA induced subgrains deposition inhibition and lost contact with chitinous scaffold. In addition, the WDD-repeat region polypeptide was involved in morphological regulation of calcite and had dose-dependent inhibitory activity against aragonite deposition in vitro . Based on these results, Hcprismatin-14 appears to be a dual-function prismatic-layer matrix protein, responsible for both framework recognition and crystal deposition. These findings contribute to understanding the relationship between the modular structure of matrix protein and their regulation mechanism during shell biomineralization in mollusks.

Quantitative Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Forest Ecosystems - Dan Liu; Hao Yan; Cheng Long Yu; Shi Ping Yin; Cheng Wei Wang; Li Juan Gong (Forest Science, 2023)
Characterizing and predicting the response of terrestrial ecosystems to global change is part of the fundamental challenges of contemporary ecology and ecological conservation. The assessment of climate change impact on forest ecosystems has rarely used a multi-index fusion method for quantitative evaluation. We used forest distribution, net primary productivity, and vegetation coverage to establish an assessment model of the impact of climate change on forest ecosystems. We analyzed the change characteristics of these indicators in the Heilongjiang Province of China. Our results indicate the following: (1) from 2001 to 2019, the forest area in Heilongjiang Province ranged from 234,000 to 246,000 km2. The forest net primary productivity (NPP) ranged from 4.40 to 5.55 MgC·ha-1·yr-1, and the vegetation coverage ranged from 42.42% to 67.64%. The forest NPP and the vegetation coverage showed a significant upward trend. (2) The values of forest ecological roles were significantly positively correlated with the climatic potential. (3) The contribution rate of climate change to forest ecosystem change was negatively correlated with forest coverage, which varied from 4.79% to 18.07% in different regions (cities) of the province. Study Implications: Assessing the influence of climate on forest ecosystems comprehensively and accurately before the government prepares ecological measures is necessary. However, the responses of vegetation coverage and net primary productivity to climate change may not be consistent, so climate studies that consider forest ecosystem change trends by a single indicator may have confounding results. We established a model for evaluating the impact of climate change on forest ecosystems to solve this problem. This knowledge may provide a reference for the response, adaptation, and vulnerability assessment of forest ecosystems to climate change.

The widespread of different NDM variants in clinical Enterobacterales isolates poses a serious public health concern, which requires continuous monitoring. In this study, three E. coli strains carrying two novel bla NDM variants of bla NDM-36, -37 were identified from a patient with refractory urinary tract infection (UTI) in China. We conducted antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST), enzyme kinetics analysis, conjugation experiment, whole-genome sequencing (WGS), and bioinformatics analysis to characterize the bla NDM-36, -37 enzymes and their carrying strains. The bla NDM-36, -37 harboring E. coli isolates belonged to ST227, O9:H10 serotype and exhibited intermediate or resistance to all β-lactams tested except aztreonam and aztreonam/avibactam. The genes of bla NDM-36, -37 were located on a conjugative IncHI2-type plasmid. NDM-37 differed from NDM-5 by a single amino acid substitution (His261Tyr). NDM-36 differed from NDM-37 by an additional missense mutation (Ala233Val). NDM-36 had increased hydrolytic activity toward ampicillin and cefotaxime relative to NDM-37 and NDM-5, while NDM-37 and NDM-36 had lower catalytic activity toward imipenem but higher activity against meropenem in comparison to NDM-5. This is the first report of co-occurrence of two novel bla NDM variants in E. coli isolated from the same patient. The work provides insights into the enzymatic function and demonstrates the ongoing evolution of NDM enzymes.

Orbital‐ to millennial‐scale variation of the speleothem δ 18 O record during Marine Isotope Stages 5 to 3 on the southeast Chinese Loess Plateau and its climatic and environmental implications - YANJUN CAI; HAI CHENG; XING CHENG; ZHENGGUO SHI; YANBIN LU; LE MA; CARLOS PÉREZ‐MEJÍAS; HAIWEI ZHANG; YINGYING WEI; GANG XUE; HANYING LI; MEI HE; et al. (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2023)
The Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) is located in northern China, a region climatically dominated by the East Asian monsoon. Speleothem records from this region are crucial to fully understand the variability of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and reconcile the disparity seen between loess records and speleothem δ 18 O records for the EASM. Here, we present an absolutely dated stalagmite isotope record spanning most of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5 to MIS 3 from Xiaotian Cave, southeast CLP. The Xiaotian speleothem δ 18 O record is dominated by precessional variations and punctuated by notable millennial‐scale oscillations; in particular, the δ 18 O values in MIS 5e, 5c and 5a were in the same range, consistent with other speleothem δ 18 O records from the EASM region within quoted errors, verifying the difference between speleothem δ 18 O and loess records (e.g. magnetic susceptibility) and the proposition that those two archives may record different aspects of the EASM changes. The similar values in MIS 5e, 5c and 5a observed from the speleothem δ 18 O records in EASM regions, incompatible with the relatively higher North Hemisphere Summer Insolation (NHSI) during MIS 5e, were probably caused by an equivalent or even increased contribution of 18 O‐enriched moisture from the South China Sea and North Pacific, implying that an El Niño‐like state existed during MIS 5e. The Xiaotian δ 18 O values increased abruptly at ~121.7 thousand years (kyr) before the present ( bp , present refers to ad 1950), consistent with the trend seen in previously reported Chinese speleothem δ 18 O records, indicating an abrupt regime shift in atmospheric circulations or hydroclimate conditions in the Asian monsoon systems. It cannot be definitely ruled out that an increase in sea ice extent in the northern North Atlantic, responding to a decrease of NHSI, reached a threshold to have led to abrupt changes in the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) through rapid shifts in the position of circulation of the westerlies and/or in the position of Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Here, we hypothesized that sea surface cooling in the tropical Indian and Pacific Ocean caused by the decreased summer insolation reached a threshold that eventually resulted in an abrupt shift to more positive precipitation δ 18 O, either through weakened convection over the tropical ocean, or through abrupt shifts in moisture transport and cycling of tropical moisture sources for the ASM. The Xiaotian speleothem δ 18 O record also shows centennial‐scale variability with amplitude up to 3‰ within MIS 5e. These changes are similar to variations recorded by the speleothem δ 18 O record from Tianmen Cave on the south‐central Tibetan Plateau and Shangxiaofeng Cave in Shandong Province, northern China, suggesting a heightened sensitivity of precipitation δ 18 O to climate changes at the marginal zone of the ASM even during the warm and humid MIS 5e interglacial. Climatic oscillations during MIS 5e appear to be comparable to those typical of the Holocene, implying rather unstable climate conditions during the Last Interglacial.
