Accurate and reliable wave significant wave height(SWH) prediction is an important task for marine and engineering applications. This study aims to develop a new deep learning algorithm to accurately predict the SWH of deep and distant ocean. In this study, we combine two methods, Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (EEMD) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), to construct an EEMD-LSTM model, and explore the optimal parameters of the model through experiments. A total of 5328 hours of SWH data from November 30, 2020, to July 9, 2021, are used to train and test the model to predict the SWH for the future 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h, and 18h. The results show that the EEMD-LSTM model has the best results compared with other comparative models for short-term and medium- and long-term predictions. The RMSEs are 0.0204, 0.0279, 0.0452, 0.0941, and 0.1949 for the SWH prediction in the future 1, 3, 6, 12, and 18 h. It can be used as a rapid SWH prediction system to ensure navigation safety to a certain extent, which has great practical significance and application value.

Extract of Styrax japonica attenuates glutamate-induced apoptosis via regulating MAPK signaling pathway in HT22 hippocampal cells - Da Hye Jeong; Song-I Han; Jae-Hoon Kim (Plant Biotechnology Reports, 2023)
Two-thirds of people with dementia suffer from Alzheimer’s disease, and there is a need to develop treatments with fewer side effects. Cholinergic and glutamate-induced brain damage occurs in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease, so substances that suppress these symptoms may be potential candidates for the treatment. Ethanol extracts of 40 kinds of oriental medicine plants were examined whether they have acetylcholine esterase (Ache) inhibitory properties. We next investigated whether the ethanol extracts of six oriental medicine plants showing Ache inhibitory activity could inhibit glutamate-induced HT22 cell death. The ethanol extract of Styrax japonica (EESJ) was found to be relatively superior in both inhibitory activities. MTT and annexin V/PI staining assays confirmed that EESJ inhibited glutamate-induced apoptosis in the HT22 mouse hippocampal cells. EESJ also suppressed glutamate-mediated ROS production and attenuated the phosphorylation levels of MAPK members including ERK, JNK, and p38 kinases. Therefore, EESJ is a suitable candidate for developing a substance of Alzheimer’s disease treatment.

Responses of a semiarid grassland to recurrent drought are linked to community functional composition - Wentao Luo; Taofeek O. Muraina; Robert J. Griffin‐Nolan; Wang Ma; Lin Song; Wei Fu; Qiang Yu; Alan K. Knapp; Zhengwen Wang; Xingguo Han; Scott L. Collins (Ecology, 2023)
Recurrent droughts are an inevitable consequence of climate change, yet how grasslands respond to such events is unclear. We conducted a 6‐year rainfall manipulation experiment in a semiarid grassland that consisted of an initial 2‐year drought (2015–2016), followed by a recovery period (2017–2018) and, finally, a second 2‐year drought (2019–2020). In each year, we estimated aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP), species richness, community‐weighted mean (CWM) plant traits, and several indices of functional diversity. The initial drought led to reduced ANPP, which was primarily driven by limited growth of forbs in the first year and grasses in the second year. Total ANPP completely recovered as the rapid recovery of grass productivity compensated for the slow recovery of forb productivity. The subsequent drought led to a greater reduction in total ANPP than the initial drought due to the greater decline of both grass and forb productivity. The structural equation models revealed that soil moisture influenced ANPP responses directly during the initial drought, and indirectly during the subsequent drought by lowering functional diversity, which resulted in reduced total ANPP. Additionally, ANPP was positively influenced by CWM plant height and leaf nitrogen during the recovery period and recurrent drought, respectively. Overall, the greater impact of the second drought on ecosystem function than the initial drought, as well as the underlying differential mechanism, underscores the need for an understanding of how increased drought frequency may alter semiarid grassland functioning.

Bacterial communities exhibit apparent phosphate concentration-related patterns of community composition, alpha diversity, and phylogenetic structure in the subtropical Daya Bay - Ye Chen; Guibin Ma; Chuangfeng Wu; Yuyang Peng; Xingyu Song; Qinglong L. Wu; Bo-Ping Han; Lijuan Ren (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Increasing anthropogenic activities have caused serious environmental problems and undesirable ecological impacts on bay ecosystems. However, much remains to be learned regarding marine bacterial community assembly and its underlying mechanisms under intensive anthropogenic activities in subtropical bays. In this study, we used the community assembly theory to analyze bacterial community distributions in the subtropical Daya Bay, where the habitats are subject to serious thermal discharge and excessive nutrient load. We found the community assembly of bacterial in the Daya Bay was dominantly shaped by environmental factor of seawater phosphate, followed by temperature, and silicate. High phosphate concentration significantly increased the relative abundance of Actinobacteria , Cyanobacteria , Planctomycetes , and Gammaprotecteria , but reduced the relative abundance of Bacteroidetes and Alphaproteobacteria . Moreover, higher phosphate concentration was found significantly and positively correlated with higher bacterial alpha diversity. Compared with stochastic processes, we found higher phosphate concentration imposed stronger deterministic processes (primarily homogeneous selection) in structuring bacterial community assembly in the subtropical Daya bay, and bacterial communities tended to be higher phylogenetically clustered in higher phosphate-concentration habitats. In summary, we proposed that phosphate is a major environmental determinant in the subtropical Daya Bay and influenced the relative importance of deterministic and stochastic processes in bacterial community assembly.

Biogeography and potential ecological functions of prokaryotes in the hydrothermal and non-hydrothermal field sediments of the Indian Ocean Ridges - Jing Huang; Ping Chen; Yaxin Zhu; Jian Wang; Lei Song; Xiqiu Han; Ying Huang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
A consensus is emerging on marine microbial biogeography. However, knowledge of the biodiversity and biogeographic patterns of deep-sea microbes and the drivers is far from adequate. In this study, we investigated the diversity and biogeography of prokaryotes at the Indian Ocean Ridges (IOR) using 16S rRNA gene and dsrB sequencing combined with bioinformatics analyses. A total of 39 hydrothermal field sediment (HFS) and non-hydrothermal field sediment (NHFS) samples were collected from the Carlsberg Ridge (CR) and Southwest Indian Ridge (SWIR). Seventy-four prokaryotic phyla were detected in the samples, of which 13 phyla were distributed across all samples. The composition of prokaryotic communities diverged between HFSs and NHFSs, but not between the CR and SWIR. Sixteen phyla were differentially enriched between HFSs and NHFSs. The community structure was significantly correlated to calcium, sulfur, total phosphorus, and total nitrogen, the first three of which were the main distinguishing factors of HFSs and NHFSs. Moreover, a weak distance–decay pattern was observed among the NHFS communities. PICRUSt predictions revealed functional discrepancies in carbon and nitrogen metabolism between the HFS and NHFS communities, and dsrB sequencing analysis indicated higher diversity of sulfate reduction genes and taxa in HFSs than in NHFSs. The diversity and relative abundance of corresponding functional taxa and genes suggested that the nitrogen cycle might be centralized in an energy-generating manner to support the microbial community in NHFSs while the sulfur cycle is more important for the HFS community. These findings provide new insights into microbial biogeography and metabolic differentiation along the IOR that are influenced by hydrothermal activity.

Characterization of the Gut Microbiota of Mackerel Icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari - Hokyung Song; Seungyeon Lee; Dong-Won Han; Jin-Hyoung Kim (Fishes, 2022)
The gut microbiome of Antarctic fish species has rarely been studied due to difficulties in obtaining samples. The mackerel icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari, primary feeds on krill and is one of the key species in the food web of the Southern Ocean. In this study, we characterized the gut microbiota of C. gunnari by sequencing the V3–V4 region of the bacterial 16S rRNA gene based on the Illumina MiSeq sequencing platform. We collected three types of samples: (1) whole intestine, (2) intestinal wall, and (3) intestinal content. The results showed no significant difference in the alpha diversity between different sample types. However, the microbial community composition of intestinal wall samples was distinct from other sample types. The relative abundance of Photobacterium was higher in intestinal content compared with the walls, which could be due to their chitinolytic activity. In contrast, potential pathogens such as Escherichia, Shigella, and Pseudomonas relatively more abundant in the intestinal wall compared with the intestinal contents. Unlike the gut microbiome of other marine fish species, Vibrio and Lactobacillus were nearly absent in the gut microbiome of C. gunnari. Functional gene profile of the gut microbiome predicted by PICRUSt2 showed higher relative abundance of genes related to biodegradation of nutrients in intestinal content. In contrast, the relative abundance of genes related to biosynthesis of important metabolites, such as menaquinols, was higher in intestinal wall. The difference in the microbial community structure of intestinal wall and intestinal content found in our study supports niche separation in the gut environment and emphasizes the importance of collecting intestinal wall samples in addition to intestinal content samples to understand the full picture of gut microbiome. This is the first time that the gut microbiome of mackerel icefish has been characterized using next-generation sequencing.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Marking Juvenile Takifugu obscurus Otoliths with Strontium - Lingling Gu; Hui Zhang; Guangpeng Feng; Yong Liu; Zhiqiang Han; Feng Zhao; Qing Ye; Wangjiao Hu; Chao Song (Fishes, 2022)
Strontium marking technology is commonly used for extensive marking in stock enhancement and releasing activities. In order to explore the feasibility of this technology for juvenile Takifugu obscurus, five different concentrations of strontium (0, 12, 18, 36, and 72 mg/L) were set up by strontium chloride hexahydrate (SrCl2·6H2O) and T. obscurus were immersed for 7 days. Then, T. obscurus were reared in non-additive water for 25 days. The results showed that the survival rate of all groups was 100%, except the 72 mg/L group, after 7 days of immersion. Moreover, the growths of all the marked groups were better than that of the control group. There was no significant difference between the control and marked groups, except for the 18 mg/L group, indicating that the appropriate concentration of strontium might have positive effect for T. obscurus. The strontium to calcium (Sr/Ca) ratios of otoliths in the marked groups increased with increasing concentration and time, which were higher than the baseline, respectively. Then, the Sr/Ca ratios returned to the original level, but the peak value was still retained, suggesting that the success rate of the strontium marking reached 100%. Notably, the residual strontium content of 18 mg/L group was insufficient for causing negative effects for T. obscurus after 25 days. Therefore, in consideration of the growth, survival, and effect of strontium marking on otolith, 18 mg/L is an appropriate concentration for strontium marking of juvenile T. obscurus. This study confirmed the feasibility of strontium marking for T. obscurus and provided a new approach to rationally and scientifically evaluate the stock enhancement and releasing efficiency of T. obscurus.

Antibacterial Activity of Bacillus Strains against Acute Hepatopancreatic Necrosis Disease-Causing Vibrio campbellii in Pacific White Leg Shrimp - Hye Jin Jeon; Jae Won Song; Chorong Lee; Bumkeun Kim; Seon Young Park; Ji Hyung Kim; Jee Eun Han; Jae Hak Park (Fishes, 2022)
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is a bacterial disease caused by Vibrioparahaemolyticus. Currently, various Vibrio strains, including V. campbellii, V. owensii, and V. harveyi, have been reported as causative pathogens. Thus, controlling AHPND to maintain high production in shrimp aquaculture is difficult. We evaluated the antimicrobial activity of five Bacillus strains (B1, B3, B5, B7, and B8)—isolated from seawater in Jeju, South Korea—against 12 Vibrio strains (10 AHPND strains and 2 non-AHPND strains). All tested Bacillus strains inhibited the growth of at least one of the tested Vibrio strains in the dot-spot method. Among them, B1 and B3, the most effective Bacillus strains against the Vibrio strains, particularly against AHPND-causing V. campbellii (VcAHPND), were further used in a challenge test. After 48–60 h of VcAHPND immersion, a significantly higher survival rate was observed in the B1-treated group (100%) than in the non-Bacillus-treated group (64.3%). Based on the qPCR analysis of AHPND, the cycle threshold values were 31.63 ± 0.2 (B1-treated group) and 38.04 ± 0.58 (B3-treated group), versus 28.70 ± 0.42 in the control group. Genome sequencing and phylogenetic analysis revealed that B1 and B3 were classified as B. velezensis. The 16S rRNA sequences and complete genome sequences of B1 and B3 were deposited in GenBank.

A significant wave height prediction method based on deep learning combining the correlation between wind and wind waves - Tao Song; Runsheng Han; Fan Meng; Jiarong Wang; Wei Wei; Shiqiu Peng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Accurate wave height prediction is significant in ports, energy, fisheries, and other offshore operations. In this study, a regional significant wave height prediction model with a high spatial and temporal resolution is proposed based on the ConvLSTM algorithm. The model learns the intrinsic correlations of the data generated by the numerical model, making it possible to combine the correlations between wind and wind waves to improve the predictions. In addition, this study also optimizes the long-term prediction ability of the model through the proposed Mask method and Replace mechanism. The experimental results show that the introduction of the wind field can significantly improve the significant wave height prediction results. The research on the prediction effect of the entire study area and two separate stations shows that the prediction performance of the proposed model is better than the existing methods. The model makes full use of the physical correlation between wind and wind waves, and the validity is up to 24 hours. The 24-hour forecast R² reached 0.69.

Heritability estimates for gonadal development traits and their genetic correlations with growth and heat tolerance traits in the Fujian Oyster Crassostrea angulata - Ziqiang Han; Xiang Guo; Zuoliang Lu; Yiheng Song; Ruimin Chen; Xiaojie Han; Shiqi Yu; Kang Tu; Liangjie Liu; Huayong Que (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Improving the progress of breeding is the main purpose of breeders, and shorting the reproductive cycle is one of the ways to improve the breeding progress. Although the reproductive cycle of Crassostrea angulata can be shortened from one year to half a year by selecting precocious individuals, little is known about whether this selection will accelerate their gonadal development or disturb their selection for productive traits. Here, the heritability of gonadal development traits (gametogenic stage and egg diameter) and their genetic correlations with both growth traits (shell height at 4 and 12 months and total body weight at 12 months) and heat tolerance trait were estimated. The heritability for gametogenic stage was low (0.18 ± 0.09), while the egg diameter showed a high heritability (0.78 ± 0.30). These results suggest that selection for precocious individuals has little effect on the rate of gonadal development in the C. angulata , despite the effect may be greater in females than in males. The genetic correlations between gonadal development traits and both growth (-0.02–0.30) and heat tolerance traits (-0.08–0.34) were low and non-significant. These results suggest that selection for precocious individuals has negligible effects on their productive traits. Therefore, it is feasible to double the breeding efficiency of C. angulata by halving their reproductive cycle.

Revealing Selection in Breeding and Genetic Characteristics of Economically Important Traits of New Species of Apostichopus Japonicas Based on Genome Resequencing and GWAS Analysis - Chao Guo; Yuanxin Li; Jiahui Xie; Lingshu Han; Youquan Wang; Xianglei Zhang; YangLei Wu; Jian Song; Yaqing Chang; Jun Ding (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Apostichopus japonicas is an economically important species with high nutritional value. However, our knowledge of its genetic diversity and the genetic changes that occurred during its domestication or trait selection is quite limited. In this study, the whole genomes of 254 A . japonicas samples were resequenced. Analyses of the population genetic structure revealed that the genetic diversity of A. japonicas in the north of China is generally high, there was no difference in the population structure among the six cultured populations, and they were divided into two subpopulations together with AY-1 (new species). The results also showed that the genetic diversity of the AY-1 population was relatively low, the degree of linkage of alleles was high, and this population had been subjected to more positive selection. Based on Tajima’s D, F ST analysis, and ROD analysis, the selected intervals and genes of the AY-1 population were identified, with some of the candidate intervals being related to an economically important trait and breeding target, namely, the number of parapodia. Gene Ontology analysis of the candidate genes revealed that the two subpopulations differed in their immune function, protein synthesis, decomposition, and transport, among others. Using GWAS, we identified 39 candidate genes for four economically important traits of A. japonicas , and we verified that those genes contained non-synonymous SNPs. Through this verification, BSL78_00022 and BSL78_00023 were found to be key genes for the number of parapodia in A. japonicas . Of these two genes, BSL78_00022 encodes a protein related to cell differentiation and proliferation, so it was assumed that three non-synonymous substitutions (Ser-Phe, Glu-Asp, and Ala-Val) in this gene are related to the changes in the number of parapodia. Meanwhile, the pleiotropic gene BSL78_04631, which is related to body weight and body wall weight, and promotes protein synthesis and cell growth, has a non-synonymous substitution (IlE-Val), which is assumed to be the reason for the difference in body weight and body wall weight of A. japonicas . These results provide a new perspective for explaining the genetic structure characteristics of A. japonicas and analyzing the selection and economically important traits in the breeding of new species.

BACKGROUND : The use of mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (mBMSCs) represents a promising strategy for performing preclinical studies in the field of cell-based regenerative medicine; however, mBMSCs obtained via conventional isolation methods have two drawbacks, i.e., (i) they are heterogeneous due to frequent macrophage contamination, and (ii) they require long-term culturing for expansion. METHODS : In the present study, we report a novel strategy to generate highly pure mBMSCs using liposomal clodronate. This approach is based on the properties of the two cell populations, i.e., BMSCs (to adhere to the plasticware in culture dishes) and macrophages (to phagocytose liposomes). RESULTS : Liposomal clodronate added during the first passage of whole bone marrow culture was selectively engulfed by macrophages in the heterogeneous cell population, resulting in their effective elimination without affecting the MSCs. This method allowed the generation of numerous high-purity Sca-1 + CD44 + F4/80 − mBMSCs (> 95%) with just one passaging. Comparative studies with mBMSCs obtained using conventional methods revealed that the mBMSCs obtained in the present study had remarkably improved experimental utilities, as demonstrated by in vitro multilineage differentiation and in vivo ectopic bone formation assays. CONCLUSION : Our newly developed method, which enables the isolation of mBMSCs using simple and convenient protocol, will aid preclinical studies based on the use of MSCs.

Sensitive-stage embryo irradiation affects embryonic neuroblasts and adult motor function - Ram Wagle; Young-Han Song (Molecular & Cellular Toxicology, 2022)
Background Cranial radiation therapy for treating childhood malignancies in the central nervous system or accidental radiation exposure may result in neurological side effects in surviving adults. As tissue homeostasis is maintained by stem cells, understanding the effect of radiation on neural stem cells will provide clues for managing the neurological effects. Drosophila embryos were used as a model system whose sensitivity to irradiation-induced cell death changes from the sensitive to resistant stage during development. Objective Drosophila embryos at the radiation-sensitive stage were irradiated at various doses and the radiation sensitivity was tested regarding the appearance of apoptotic cells in the embryos and the embryonic lethality. Cell fates of the neural stem cells called neuroblasts (NBs) and adult motor function after irradiation were also investigated. Result Irradiation of Drosophila embryos at the radiation-sensitive stage resulted in a dose-dependent increase in the number of embryos containing apoptotic cells 75 min after treatment starting at 3 Gy. Embryonic lethality assayed by hatch rate was induced by 1 Gy irradiation, which did not induce cell death. Notably, no apoptosis was detected in NBs up to 2 h after irradiation at doses as high as 40 Gy. At 3 h after irradiation, as low as 3 Gy, the number of NBs marked by Dpn and Klu was decreased by an unidentified mechanism regardless of the cell death status of the embryo. Furthermore, embryonic irradiation at 3 Gy, but not 1 Gy, resulted in locomotor defects in surviving adults. Conclusion Embryonic NBs survived irradiation at doses as high as 40 Gy, while cells in other parts of the embryos underwent apoptosis at doses higher than 3 Gy within 2 h after treatment. Three hours after exposure to a minimum dose of 3 Gy, the number of NBs marked by Dpn and Klu decreased, and the surviving adults exhibited defects in locomotor ability.

Unexpected role of electron‐transfer hub in direct degradation of pollutants by exoelectrogenic bacteria - Ting‐Ting Zhu; Zhou‐Hua Cheng; Sheng‐Song Yu; Wen‐Wei Li; Dong‐Feng Liu; Han‐Qing Yu (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary Exoelectrogenic bacteria (EEB) are capable of anaerobic respiration with diverse extracellular electron acceptors including insoluble minerals, electrodes and flavins, but the detailed electron transfer pathways and reaction mechanisms remain elusive. Here, we discover that CymA, which is usually considered to solely serve as an inner‐membrane electron transfer hub in Shewanella oneidensis MR‐1 (a model EEB), might also function as a reductase for direct reducing diverse nitroaromatic compounds (e.g. 2,4‐dichloronitrobenzene) and azo dyes. Such a process can be accelerated by dosing anthraquinone‐2,6‐disulfonate. The CymA‐based reduction pathways in S . oneidensis MR‐1 for different contaminants could be functionally reconstructed and strengthened in Escherichia coli . The direct reduction of lowly polar contaminants by quinol oxidases like CymA homologues might be universal in diverse microbes. This work offers new insights into the pollutant reduction mechanisms of EEB and unveils a new function of CymA to act as a terminal reductase.

Identification of Melanin in the Mantle of the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas - Yijing Han; Chaoyi Xie; Nini Fan; Hongce Song; Xiaomei Wang; Yanxin Zheng; Meiwei Zhang; Yaqiong Liu; Baoyu Huang; Lei Wei; Xiaotong Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The Pacific oyster, Crassostrea gigas , is widely distributed and is substantially important to shellfish cultivation. Oysters with melanin-colored shells and soft parts are increasingly popular and are of high economic value. However, the distribution and synthesis of melanin in C. gigas remains unclear and there have been only few relevant studies on it. In this study, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to observe melanin in the epidermis of dark mantle tissue. Melanocytes containing melanosomes were observed below the epidermis, suggesting the possibility of a gradual transfer of melanin from the mantle tissue to the epithelium. The frozen section technique and three melanin staining methods were used to confirm the presence of melanin. The results suggest that enzyme identification (DOPA) is a suitable method of melanin staining in the mantle tissues of C. gigas . This study preliminarily identified the existence of melanin in the mantle tissues of C. gigas and is a foundation for the study of melanin synthesis. Furthermore, it provides new insights into the mechanism of shell color formation.

Baroclinic Effect on Inner-Port Circulation in a Macro-Tidal Estuary: A Case Study of Incheon North Port, Korea - Jae-Soon Jeong; Seung-Buhm Woo; Han Soo Lee; Bon-Ho Gu; Jong Wook Kim; Jin Il Song (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
This study investigated the flow patterns and affecting factors in the North Port of Incheon, South Korea, to understand the inner-port circulation characteristics by applying an unstructured grid finite volume community ocean model (FVCOM) together with a field survey. The FVCOM considered the tide, river discharge, surface winds, and atmospheric pressure with the highest resolution of 50 m around the port. The model results were validated with current velocity and salinity observations. In the main channel, the difference in salinity between the sea surface and bottom increased during the neap tide due to weakened tidal currents, thus strengthening the stratification. However, at the inner port, strong stratification was observed during spring tide as the near-surface freshwater from upstream of the estuary moved relatively farther south of the port than that during the neap tide. Freshwater flowed into the port during the flood current and was trapped in the semi-closed geometry of the inner port. The horizontal salinity gradient between the trapped fresher water in the port and saltier water in the main channel increased during the flood current. As a result, density-driven circulations associated with near-bed currents towards the port were maintained for more than 3 h after high tide. This result implies that the baroclinic effect, mainly due to the salinity gradient in the North Port, could significantly affect residual circulation at the inner harbor in a macro-tidal environment and the mass transport mechanism, such as sediment transport. In general, such enhanced baroclinic effects due to salinity and tides are not limited to the North Port and can have greater effects on inner-port circulation in other macro-tidal harbors that suffer from severe sedimentation problems.

MSC secreted extracellular vesicles carrying TGF-beta upregulate Smad 6 expression and promote the regrowth of neurons in spinal cord injured rats - Tianyu Han; Peiwen Song; Zuomeng Wu; Xia Xiang; Yunlei Liu; Ying Wang; Huang Fang; Yang Niu; Cailiang Shen (Stem Cell Reviews and Reports, 2022)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) constitute a promising therapy for spinal cord injury (SCI) because they can provide a favorable environment for the regrowth of neurons by inhibiting receptor-regulated Smads (R-Smads) expression in endogenous neural stem cells (NSCs). However, their mechanism of action and effect on the expression of inhibitory Smads (I-Smads) remain unclear. Herein, we demonstrated that extracellular vesicles (EVs) from MSCs were able to upregulate the Smad 6 expression by carrying TGF-β, and the Smad 6 knockdown in NSCs partially weakened the bone marrow MSC (BMSC)-EV-induced effect on neural differentiation. We found that the expression of Smad 6 did not reduced owing to the TGF-β type I receptor kinase inhibitor, SB 431,542, treatment in the acute phase of injury in rats with SCI, thereby indicating that the Smad 6 expression was not only mediated by TGF-β, but also by the inflammatory factors and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) as well. However, in the later phase of SCI, the Smad 6 expression decreased by the addition of SB 431,542, suggesting that TGF-β plays a key role in the mediation of Smad 6 expression in this phase. In addition, immunohistochemistry staining; hematoxylin–eosin staining; and the Basso, Beattie, and Bresnahan (BBB) scores revealed that the early inhibition of TGF-β did not increase neuron regrowth. However, this inhibition increased the cavity and the caspase-3 expression at 24 h post-injury, leading to a worse functional outcome. Conversely, the later treatment with the TGF-β inhibitor promoted the regrowth of neurons around the cavity, resulting in a better neurological outcome. Together, these results indicate that Smad 6 acts as a feedback regulator to prevent the over-differentiation of NSCs to astrocytes and that BMSC-EVs can upregulate Smad 6 expression by carrying TGF-β.

A New Scheme for Capturing Global Conditional Nonlinear Optimal Perturbation - Siyuan Liu; Qi Shao; Wei Li; Guijun Han; Kangzhuang Liang; Yantian Gong; Ru Wang; Hanyu Liu; Song Hu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Conditional nonlinear optimal perturbation (CNOP) represents the initial perturbation that satisfies a certain physical constraint condition, and leads to a maximum prediction error at the moment of prediction. The CNOP method is a useful tool in studying atmosphere and ocean predictability problems. Generally, the optimization algorithm based on the gradient of the cost function to compute CNOP requires an initial guess. The traditional scheme randomly chooses the initial guess of CNOP within the constraint range and therefore this scheme is called RIG-CNOP. However, the RIG-CNOP scheme reduces the probability of capturing the global CNOP in many cases, such as the prediction model is strongly nonlinear or long-term prediction is performed, or multiple extreme values existed in the cost function. Considering the limitations of the RIG-CNOP scheme, we propose a new initial guess selection scheme. In this scheme, we first pre-analyze a series of random initial guesses, and then, an optimal initial guess is selected. The above process replaces the initial guess selection scheme in the traditional scheme, which is called PAIG-CNOP. Numerical experiments are conducted utilizing the Lorenz-63 model. Also, to compare the performance of the PAIG-CNOP method with the RIG-CNOP method in capturing global CNOP, the CNOP and the maximum cost function value (MCFV) obtained by the filtering method (FM) are used as benchmarks (this value is called FMMCFV in brief). The experimental results show that even the prediction model is strongly nonlinear or the prediction time is long, or the cost function has multiple extreme values, the PAIG-CNOP method can capture the global CNOP with a high probability. The results show that the PAIG-CNOP method has a higher probability of capturing the global CNOP than the RIG-CNOP method. In addition, we use an ensemble-based technique in the computation of gradients, thus avoiding the use of adjoint techniques in the maximization process. Due to the attractive features of the new method, the PAIG-CNOP method is an efficient and useful method for solving CNOP, it can be more easily applied to obtain the global CNOP of operational prediction models.

Growth Heterogeneity of Chub Mackerel (Scomber japonicus) in the Northwest Pacific Ocean - Kai Cai; Richard Kindong; Qiuyun Ma; Xiaobin Han; Song Qin (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) is a pelagic fish widely distributed in temperate and subtropical zones throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans and is commercially exploited, particularly in the North Pacific. Although highly targeted in this region, little is known about their life history aspects. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the growth heterogeneities and ageing analysis of this species. We describe the length-at-age, weight-at-length, relative condition factor relationships, spatiotemporal heterogeneity and compare estimated growth parameter values to those reported from other regions. This study used data obtained from Chinese fishing vessels collected from 2016–2020 in the northwest Pacific Ocean. Length-weight data from 2686 specimens (40–294 mm, fork length; 0.8–311.8 g body weight) were analyzed, and the Length-weight relationship was W = (1.41 × 10−6) × FL3.37. Seven linear mixed-effects models (LMEM) were used to analyze the heterogeneity of length-weight relationships of Chub mackerel. The Length-weight relationships for Chub mackerel were best described by a model with random effects with both year and season (spring, summer, autumn) with the scalar parameter a. Age estimates were obtained from 175 specimens, and the length-at-estimated ages relationship was described using three non-linear candidate growth models. The von Bertalanffy growth model fit the data best for Chub mackerel in the northwest Pacific Ocean. Comparing the results to that of previous studies, we observed that individual Chub mackerel exhibited a slower growth rate than that observed in previous studies. In addition, relative condition factors varied among years, seasons, and regions. Information presented in this study provides an effective scientific basis for stock assessment and fishery management of Chub mackerel in the northwest Pacific Ocean.

Polyploid breeding is widely used in aquaculture as an important area of new research. We have previously grown Apostichopus japonicus triploids with a growth advantage. The body length, body weight, and aestivation time of triploid and diploid A. japonicus were measured in this study, and the transcriptome and metabolome were used to examine the growth advantage of triploids A. japonicus . The results showed that the proportion of triploid A. japonicus with a body length of 6–12 cm and 12–18 cm was significantly higher than that of diploid A. japonicus , and triploid A. japonicus had a shorter aestivation time (39 days) than diploid (63 days). We discovered 3296 differentially expressed genes (DEGs); 13 DEGs (for example, cyclin-dependent kinase 2 ) related to growth advantage, immune regulation, and energy storage were screened as potential candidates. According to Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis, DEGs were significantly enriched in the cytoplasm (cellular component), ATP binding process (molecular function), oxidation–reduction process (biological process), and other pathways. According to the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment data, DEGs were significantly enriched in ribosome production and other areas. We discovered 414 significant differential metabolites (SDMs), with 11 important SDMs (for example, nocodazole) linked to a growth advantage. SDMs are significantly enriched in metabolic pathways, as well as other pathways, according to the KEGG enrichment results. According to a combined transcriptome and metabolome analysis, 6 DEGs have regulatory relationships with 11 SDMs, which act on 11 metabolic pathways together. Our results further enrich the biological data of triploid A. japonicus and provide useful resources for genetic improvement of this species.

Unsupervised Machine Learning for Improved Delaunay Triangulation - Tao Song; Jiarong Wang; Danya Xu; Wei Wei; Runsheng Han; Fan Meng; Ying Li; Pengfei Xie (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Physical oceanography models rely heavily on grid discretization. It is known that unstructured grids perform well in dealing with boundary fitting problems in complex nearshore regions. However, it is time-consuming to find a set of unstructured grids in specific ocean areas, particularly in the case of land areas that are frequently changed by human construction. In this work, an attempt was made to use machine learning for the optimization of the unstructured triangular meshes formed with Delaunay triangulation in the global ocean field, so that the triangles in the triangular mesh were closer to equilateral triangles, the long, narrow triangles in the triangular mesh were reduced, and the mesh quality was improved. Specifically, we used Delaunay triangulation to generate the unstructured grid, and then developed a K-means clustering-based algorithm to optimize the unstructured grid. With the proposed method, unstructured meshes were generated and optimized for global oceans, small sea areas, and the South China Sea estuary to carry out data experiments. The results suggested that the proportion of triangles with a triangle shape factor greater than 0.7 amounted to 77.80%, 79.78%, and 79.78%, respectively, in the unstructured mesh. Meanwhile, the proportion of long, narrow triangles in the unstructured mesh was decreased to 8.99%, 3.46%, and 4.12%, respectively.

Global warming may alter microbially mediated ecosystem functions through reshaping of microbial diversity and modified microbial interactions. Here, we examined the effects of 5‐year experimental warming on different microbial hierarchical groups in a coastal nontidal soil ecosystem, including prokaryotes (i.e., bacteria and archaea), fungi, and Cercozoa, which is a widespread phylum of protists. Warming significantly altered the diversity and structure of prokaryotic and fungal communities in soil and additionally decreased the complexity of the prokaryotic network and fragmented the cercozoan network. By using the Inter‐Domain Ecological Network approach, the cross‐trophic interactions among prokaryotes, fungi, and Cercozoa were further investigated. Under warming, cercozoan–prokaryotic and fungal–prokaryotic bipartite networks were simplified, whereas the cercozoan–fungal network became slightly more complex. Despite simplification of the fungal–prokaryotic network, the strengthened synergistic interactions between saprotrophic fungi and certain prokaryotic groups, such as the Bacteroidetes, retained these phyla within the network under warming. In addition, the interactions within the fungal community were quite stable under warming conditions, which stabilized the interactions between fungi and prokaryotes or protists. Additionally, we found the microbial hierarchical interactions were affected by environmental stress (i.e., salinity and pH) and soil nutrients. Interestingly, the relevant microbial groups could respond to different soil properties under ambient conditions, whereas under warming these two groups tended to respond to similar soil properties, suggesting network hub species responded to certain environmental changes related to warming, and then transferred this response to their partners through trophic interactions. Finally, warming strengthened the network modules’ negative association with soil organic matters through some fungal hub species, which might trigger soil carbon loss in this ecosystem. Our study provides new insights into the response and feedback of microbial hierarchical interactions under warming scenario.

Identification of plant materials containing ephedrine alkaloids based on DNA barcoding and TaqMan real-time PCR assay - Yaqin Zheng; Han Gao; Ming Song; Yunhan Lin; Jiajia Fan; Yaqin Zhang; Xia Liu (Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2021)
An intentional or inadvertent mixing of plant materials containing ephedrine alkaloids, especially Ephedra , is illegal. In order to better detect plant materials containing ephedrine alkaloids in export and smuggling, DNA barcoding combined with a TaqMan real-time PCR-based assay were used in this study. We collected 201 samples from 18 species belonging to four genera distributed in three families to amplify two barcoding markers, internal transcribed spacer 2 (ITS2) and psb A -trn H. 175 ITS2 sequences and 136 psb A- trn H sequences were obtained. Alignments and the neighbor-joining tree indicated that ITS2 showed a better discrimination of species than psb A -trn H. In addition, based on the sequence comparison of the ITS2 region from 18 species, three sets of primer/probes were designed using the real-time PCR assay platform. A sensitivity test showed the above primer/probe sets were specific and sensitive (as little as 0.0050 ng/μL target DNA) to identify species containing ephedrine alkaloids. Hence, the combination of novel DNA barcoding and the TaqMan real-time PCR-based technique are promising tools for the identification of plant materials containing ephedrine alkaloids. It is beneficial to standardize market circulation and detection of plant materials containing ephedrine alkaloids.

Fractionation Analysis of Iron in Coastal Rivers to Yantai Sishili Bay with a Bismuth Microrods-Based Electrochemical Sensor - Xueping Hu; Haitao Han; Chenchen Wang; Xingliang Song (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
As an essential metal micronutrient, Fe plays an important role in the marine biogeochemical cycling process, and the bioavailability of Fe has a direct relationship with its fractions in water. The fractionation analysis of iron in main coastal rivers to Yantai Sishili Bay was achieved with an electrochemical sensor based on bismuth microrods (BiMRs). The sensor was characterized by scanning electron microscope and electrochemical methods, and the reliability of the sensor was verified by the determination of the standard samples. Different fractions of iron in coastal river waters, including total iron (TFe), total dissolved iron (TDFe) and particulate iron (PFe), have been determined by combining simple sample pretreatments and cathodic stripping voltammetry with the BiMRs-based sensor. The average concentrations of TFe in Guangdang River, Xin’an River and Yuniao River were 4.02, 3.66 and 4.42 μmol L−1, respectively. The main fractionation of iron in three rivers was PFe, which accounts for 84.46%, 87.56% and 92.34%, respectively. Furthermore, the relationships between iron concentration and tidal action, salinity, dissolved oxygen and other factors were also investigated.
