The impacts of extreme marine weather and marine scientific and technological innovation on marine economic development: Evidence form China’s coastal regions - Chenggang Li; Hongye Jia; Yikang Wan; Yongxiang Hu; Bingying Zeng; Wanyue Zhang; Xiangbo Fan; Tao Lin; Guofei Shang; Weiyan Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The extreme marine weather is a very vital factor and has important implications for of marine economic development. However, there is a lack of systematic and quantitative analyses of its impact on the marine economic development. Here, we study the impacts of extreme marine weather on marine economic development of 11 coastal regions in China, using the dynamic panel model. We found that extreme marine weather exerts a significant negative impact on the marine economic development. The marine scientific and technological innovation promotes marine economic development in a prominent manner. The marine scientific and technological innovation slows down the unfavorable impact of extreme marine weather on the marine economy. After considering different industries for marine economic development and heterogeneity, we found that extreme marine weather and marine scientific and technological innovation have a great impact on marine economic development in the tertiary industry and the areas with high development concerning marine economy level, while deliver a small impact on the marine economic development in the primary industry and the areas low development level. This paper empirically studies the relationship between the two variables of marine extreme weather and marine science and technology innovation and its impact on marine economic development, enriches the research perspective of extreme weather on marine economic development, and provides new method evidence for improving the level of marine scientific and technological innovation and promoting the development of marine economy.

Genome-wide identification, structural and evolutionary characteristics, and expression analysis of aquaporin gene family members in Mercenaria mercenaria - Cong Zhou; Zhi-shu Lin; Ying Shi; Jie Feng; Zhi Hu; Mei-jie Yang; Pu Shi; Yong-ren Li; Yong-jun Guo; Tao Zhang; Hao Song (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Aquaporins (AQPs) are highly-selective transmembrane water transporters that are involved in the adaptation to environmental challenges. However, the structure, function, and evolution of AQPs in bivalves remain largely unknown. In this study, AQP gene family members were identified in nine bivalve species, and their abundance rangs from 7 to 15. Nine AQPs (MmAQPs) were identified in the genome of hard clam ( Mercenaria mercenaria ), which is a euryhaline bivalve that has evolved sophisticated osmoregulatory mechanisms and salinity adaptation. Structurally, all MmAQPs contain 6 or 12 transmembrane α-helices, a major intrinsic protein (MIP) domain, and 2 asparagine-proline-alanine (NPA) motifs. MmAQPs were classified into three subfamilies based on phylogenetic analysis: AQP1-like, AQP3-like, and AQP8-like. No AQP11-like subfamily member was identified in the genome of hard clam. Tandem duplication resulted in a lineage-specific expansion in AQP8-like subfamily in hard clams. MmAQP8 genes showed different expression sensitivity to different environmental stressors. The gene expression patterns of three MmAQP8 were similar under heat, hypoxia, and air exposure stress, but differed greatly under salinity stress, indicating that tandem duplication events may accelerate the functional divergence of AQP8 genes in hard clams. AQP3-like members may have undergone gene loss during evolution, resulting in weakened glycerol and urea penetration in hard clams. Three orthologs of MmAQPs were detected in the genomes of Cyclina sinensis and Archivesica marissinica through synteny analyses. Tissue expression profiles showed that MmAQP genes were highly expressed in the foot and hepatopancreas. Under environmental stress, the expression levels of most of the MmAQP genes changed significantly to maintain metabolic homeostasis. Several MmAQP genes were downregulated to reduce water permeability under salinity and air exposure stress. Several MmAQP genes were significantly upregulated to promote the transmembrane transport of ammonia and reactive oxygen species and activate anti-apoptotic responses to resist stress. This study provides a comprehensive understanding of the AQP gene family in hard clams, and lays a foundation for further studies to explore the functions of AQPs in bivalves.

TCR repertoire landscape reveals macrophage-mediated clone deletion in endotoxin tolerance - Juanjuan Zhao; Li Jia; YiJing Tao; Xu Zhao; Jing Yang; Yanxin Lu; Yaping Yan; Ling Mao; Lin Hu; Jia Lu; MengMeng Guo; Chao Chen; et al. (Inflammation Research, 2023)
Background Endotoxin tolerance (ET) is a protective mechanism in the process of sepsis, septic shock, and their sequelae including uncontrolled inflammation. Accumulating evidence has shown that peripheral T cells contribute to the induction of ET. However, what and how T-cell development contributes to ET inductions remain unclear. Methods Mice were intraperitoneally injected with LPS at a concentration of 5 mg/kg to establish an LPS tolerance model and were divided into two groups: a group examined 72 h after LPS injection (72-h group) and a group examined 8 days after LPS injection (8-day group). Injection of PBS was used as a control. We performed high-throughput sequencing to analyze the characteristics and changes of CD4 + SP TCR β CDR3 repertoires with respect to V direct to J rearrangement during the ET induction. Moreover, the proportion and proliferation, as well as surface molecules such as CD80 and CD86, of F4/80 + macrophages were analyzed using FCM. Furthermore, ACT assay was designed and administered by the tail vein into murine LPS-induced mouse model to evaluate the role of F4/80 + macrophages on the development of CD4 + SP thymocytes in ET condition. Results We found that the frequency and characteristics of the TCR β chain CDR3 changed obviously under condition of ET, indicating the occurrence of TCR rearrangement and thymocyte diversification. Moreover, the absolute numbers of F4/80 + macrophages, but not other APCs, were increased in thymic medulla at 72-h group, accompanied by the elevated function-related molecules of F4/80 + macrophages. Furthermore, adoptively transferred OVA 332-339 peptide-loaded macrophages into Rag-1 −/− mice induced the clone deletion of OVA-specific CD4 + SP, thereby ameliorating the pathology in lung tissue in LPS challenge. Conclusions These data reveal that the frequency and characteristics of the TCR β chain CDR3 undergo dynamic programming under conditions of LPS tolerance. Furthermore, the peripheral macrophages may be a key factor which carry peripheral antigen to thymic medulla and affect the negative selection of T-cell population, thereby contributing to the formation of ET. These results suggest that the clone selection in thymus in ET may confer protection against microbial sepsis.

Ferroptosis-related NFE2L2 and NOX4 Genes are Potential Risk Prognostic Biomarkers and Correlated with Immunogenic Features in Glioma - Li Lin; Xiaona Li; Shunda Zhu; Qingshan Long; Yongzhen Hu; Liyang Zhang; Zexin Liu; Bo Li; Xuesong Li (Cell Biochemistry and Biophysics, 2023)
Ferroptosis is a newfound mode of regulated cell death that may have potential to associate with prognostic or diagnostic factors in glioma. In this research, 5 genes related to glioma were screened through the FerrDb database, and we analyzed the combination between genes and glioma of survival and prognosis via TCGA, GEPIA, TIMER, and other databases. Survival curve and prognostic analysis showed that the overexpression of NFE2L2 and NOX4 , respectively, has a remarkable link with a worse prognosis in glioma. Then, the association between the expression of the two genes and tumor-infiltrating immune cells level was explored based on the GSCA, and the immunity of NFE2L2 and NOX4 based on the TISIDB database was also investigated. In glioma, especially GBM, there is a strong association between gene expression and immune infiltration, even in macrophages, nTreg, and Th2 cells, which play immunosuppressive functions in TME. In conclusion, these results indicate that NFE2L2 and NOX4 could be risk prognosis biomarkers in glioma, and they bound up with immune infiltration and tumor immunity in tumorigenesis.

Rapid shifts in thermal reaction norms and tolerance of brooded coral larvae following parental heat acclimation - Lei Jiang; Cheng‐Yue Liu; Guoxin Cui; Lin‐Tao Huang; Xiao‐Lei Yu; You‐Fang Sun; Hao‐Ya Tong; Guo‐Wei Zhou; Xiang‐Cheng Yuan; Yi‐Si Hu; Wen‐Liang Zhou; Manuel Aranda; et al. (Molecular Ecology, 2023)
Thermal priming of reef corals can enhance their heat tolerance; however, the legacy effects of heat stress during parental brooding on larval resilience remain understudied. This study investigated whether preconditioning adult coral Pocillopora damicornis to high temperatures (29°C and 32°C) could better prepare their larvae for heat stress. Results showed that heat‐acclimated adults brooded larvae with reduced symbiont density and shifted thermal performance curves. Reciprocal transplant experiments demonstrated higher bleaching resistance and better photosynthetic and autotrophic performance in heat‐exposed larvae from acclimated adults compared to unacclimated adults. RNA‐seq revealed strong cellular stress responses in larvae from heat‐acclimated adults that could have been effective in rescuing host cells from stress, as evidenced by the widespread upregulation of genes involved in cell cycle and mitosis. For symbionts, a molecular coordination between light harvesting, photoprotection and carbon fixation was detected in larvae from heat‐acclimated adults, which may help optimize photosynthetic activity and yield under high temperature. Furthermore, heat acclimation led to opposing regulations of symbiont catabolic and anabolic pathways and favoured nutrient translocation to the host and thus a functional symbiosis. Notwithstanding, the improved heat tolerance was paralleled by reduced light‐enhanced dark respiration, indicating metabolic depression for energy saving. Our findings suggest that adult heat acclimation can rapidly shift thermal tolerance of brooded coral larvae and provide integrated physiological and molecular evidence for this adaptive plasticity, which could increase climate resilience. However, the metabolic depression may be maladaptive for long‐term organismal performance, highlighting the importance of curbing carbon emissions to better protect corals.

Analyses of growth performance and realized heritability of the second generation of Indo‐Pacific Pampus argenteus - Xiang Huang; Cheng Zhang; Jiabao Hu; Shunshun Tao; Jie Tang; Lin Huang; Chunjing Zheng; Shanliang Xu; Yajun Wang (Journal of Fish Biology, 2023)
Silver pomfret ( Pampus argenteus ) is one of the most important fishery products in the Indo‐Pacific Ocean. Nonetheless, little is known about the genetic parameters of economic traits. To determine whether the selective breeding programme would improve economic traits, the authors evaluated the growth performance of the selected group and the control group at 60, 90 and 120 days, and the growth performance parameters of the selected group were higher than those of the control group. Through Pearson correlation analysis, the authors found that the morphological traits that are highly related to the weight of P. argenteus are body length and body height. Genetic gain and realized heritability for body weight were highest at day 90, which were 12.72% and 0.23%, respectively. Therefore, the authors speculate that day 90 may be a critical time for screening. The average coefficient of variation for body weight reached over 30%. All three morphological traits reached moderate realized heritability at day 90 after hatching. These implied that selective breeding has the potential to improve the growth traits of P. argenteus. In addition, the reproductive performance of P. argenteus parent fish was obviously improved after gonadal strengthening. These results provide important information for future breeding programmes for P. argenteus.

Towards effective wildlife protection law for marine species in China: A stakeholders’ perspective - Kit Yue Kwan; Ruifang Chen; Chun-Chieh Wang; Shuhao Lin; Lv Wu; Xiaoyong Xie; Zhaohong Weng; Menghong Hu; Haichao Zhou; Zhou Wu; Yijian Fu; Wenquan Zhen; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Introduction As one of the megadiverse countries, the effectiveness of wildlife protection in China is of great significance to global biodiversity conservation. With continued evolution and revisions, China’s Wildlife Protection Law has listed over 140 marine species; however, it is still inclined toward terrestrial animals. Methods To narrow the gap between compliance and enforcement, we collected 1,309 effective responses from various coastal cities of China through an anonymous online questionnaire survey, to investigate their exposure, understanding and attitudes toward Wildlife Protection Law for marine species (mWPL). Results Most respondents demonstrated an overall good understanding about the context, necessity and effectiveness of mWPL. The fisher communities were found to be more aware of the dissemination and implementation of mWPL. However, they understood less of the penal system, and exhibited negative attitudes toward the necessity and punishment of the legislation, probably due to the conflicts between resource utilizations and legislative interventions. The participants also indicated that seahorses, horseshoe crabs and corals were commonly subjected to illegal exploitations. Discussion While most respondents suggested greater fines, tighter laws and better public enforcement, we advocate the exploration of bottom-up options such as community engagement and environmental education to improve compliance and implementation of mWPL for the benefit of marine wildlife conservation in China.

Vitamin D regulates ion regulation by affecting the ionocyte differentiation in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae - Chia-Hao Lin; Hung-Chi Chang; Sian-Tai Liu; Huei-Jyun Hu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Freshwater teleosts frequently face the stress of varied ion and pH levels; therefore, they have developed related defense mechanisms to maintain the homeostasis of body-fluid ion and acid-base balance. The different subtypes of ionocytes expressed in the branchial epithelium of adult fish or the skin of larvae are the major sites for fish ion regulation. 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 ), the bioactive form of vitamin D, is a steroid hormone that is involved in the regulation of Ca 2+ uptake and acid secretion in teleosts. Our results revealed that 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 levels were not changed in zebrafish larvae upon exposure to low Na + freshwater compared to normal freshwater. In contrast, 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 levels were substantially higher in fish exposed to acidic and low Ca 2+ freshwater than in those exposed to normal freshwater. Some hormones regulate ion regulation and acid secretion by modulating ionocyte differentiation and/or proliferation in teleosts; however, the role of vitamin D in this process is unclear. Zebrafish larvae were used as a model in the present study to explore the effect of vitamin D on ionocyte proliferation and/or differentiation. The present study indicated that 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 treatment increased the number of foxi3a -positive cells, ionocyte progenitors, and mature ionocytes. However, the number of P63-positive epidermal stem cells did not change in the zebrafish larvae treated with 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 . These results revealed that vitamin D exerts a positive effect on the number of ionocytes by increasing the differentiation of ionocytes. Increased ionocyte differentiation by vitamin D is suggested to elevate the capacity of ion regulation and acid secretion in zebrafish to cope with external stress. The present findings indicate the role of vitamin D in the regulation of ionocyte differentiation and provide new insights into the mechanisms of stress adaptation of fish.

Study on the Low-Frequency and Broadband Sound Absorption Performance of an Underwater Anechoic Layer with Novel Design - Jinshun Hu; Yongshui Lin; Zhiwei Zhou; Xiaofei Cao; Qingjia Chi; Weiguo Wu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
To further improve the low-frequency broadband sound absorption capability of the underwater anechoic layer (UAL) on the surface of marine equipment, a novel sound absorption structure with cavities (NSSC) is designed by adding resonators and honeycombs to the traditional sound absorption structure with cavities (SSC). Based on the principle of shear dissipation, the original intention of the design is to allow more parts of the viscoelastic material to participate the dissipation of acoustic energy. The approximate multilayer sound absorption theoretical model based on the modified transfer matrix method is used to verify the accuracy of finite element calculations. In the frequency range of 1100 Hz–10,000 Hz, the sound absorption coefficient (α) of NSSC can reach 0.8. The effects of the presence and size of cylindrical oscillators and honeycomb structures on sound absorption are discussed in detail. The results show that expanding the effective sound absorption range of the damping area of the structure is the key to improve the wideband sound absorption effect. This design concept could guide the structural design of the UAL.

RNA-seq analysis reveals the effect of the metamorphic cue (juvenile oysters) on the Rapana venosa larvae - Mei-Jie Yang; Ying Shi; Zhi-Shu Lin; Pu Shi; Zhi Hu; Cong Zhou; Peng-Peng Hu; Zheng-Lin Yu; Tao Zhang; Hao Song (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
As a vital developmental event, metamorphosis controls the population dynamics of most marine invertebrates and affects the breeding of economic shellfish. Rapana venosa is an economically important species in China, but artificial aquaculture has hampered its metamorphosis process. Previous studies have found that juvenile oysters can effectively induce the metamorphosis of R. venosa , but the specific induction mechanism is not clear. Here, we investigated the mechanism underlying the response of R. venosa to juvenile oysters through the RNA-seq analysis. In this study, the gene set responses to metamorphosis cues (juvenile oysters) in R. venosa were identified, and GO and KEGG enrichment analyses were further performed on these gene sets. The results showed that the expression of the prototype of the class of immediate early genes, the transcription factor AP-1, was rapidly and significantly increased, and the molecular chaperone of NOS, HSP90, exhibited lower expression in the M12 group than in the control group. In contrast, the expression of inhibitors of apoptosis (IAPs) was significantly increased upon exposure to juvenile oysters. Additionally, the Wnt signaling pathway and MAPK signaling pathway were enriched in the trend analysis. These pathways may also play critical regulatory roles in the response to juvenile oysters. Taken together, the results show that competent larvae rapidly respond to the inducing effects of oysters via some immediate early genes, such as the transcription factor AP-1, which may further regulate downstream pathways such as the MAPK signaling pathway to cause subsequent changes, including a decrease in HSP90 and an increase in IAPs. These changes together may regulate the metamorphosis of R. venosa . This study provides further evidence that juvenile oysters are the metamorphosis cues of R. venosa , which may enhance our understanding of the metamorphosis mechanism in this marine invertebrate.

Reproductive Characteristics of Pseudecheneis sulcatus (Siluriforms: Sisoridae) in the Lower Yarlung Zangbo River, Tibet - Pengcheng Lin; Huaming Hu; Zheng Gong; Jian Wang; Xin Gao (Fishes, 2023)
The present research offers novel understandings of the reproductive biology of Pseudecheneis sulcatus (McClelland, 1842) found in the Yarlung Zangbo Grand Canyon, a biodiversity hotspot. Reproductive characteristics of Pseudecheneis sulcatus, including their maturation age, fertility, spawning season, and maximum body size, constitute important aspects of its life-history traits. We collected a total of 310 specimens from the Yarlung Zangbo River’s Motuo reach between March and November 2016 and found the male-to-female ratio to be 0.73:1, markedly different from the anticipated 1:1. The total length of individuals ranged from 72 to 207 mm, while overall weight ranged from 2.5 to 65.0 g. Their length at first maturity was estimated as 131 mm in males and 132 mm in females. Based on the adult proportion and fluctuation in the monthly gonadosomatic index (GSI) and size distribution of oocytes, spawning was determined to occur from March to June. The absolute fecundity ranged between 247 and 2886 eggs, while the fluctuation in average relative fertility ranged between 16.8 and 77.1 eggs/g of fish. The fecundity of P. sulcatus was linearly correlated to the overall weight and length of the fish along with the ovarian weight. In conclusion, P. sulcatus spawned synchronously in spring and early summer, exhibiting low fecundity and large oocytes. Our results provided basic information in understanding how this species adapted well to the unique canyon environment, which may be useful for developing a sustainable conservation plan for P. sulcatus at the lower reach of the Yarlung Zangbo River.

The Responses of Sediment Bacterial Communities in Chinese Mitten Crab (Eriocheir sinensis) Culture Ponds to Changes in Physicochemical Properties Caused by Sediment Improvement - Tianheng Gao; Nannan Li; Wenlei Xue; Yuning Hu; Hai Lin (Fishes, 2023)
The interaction between nutrients, heavy metals, and sediment bacterial communities play a key role in the health of crabs and the biogeochemical cycles of aquaculture systems. However, the effects of sediment improvement activities in crab culture on nutrients and heavy metals and the response of bacterial communities to the relevant changes are unclear. In this study, 24 water and sediment samples were collected from two aquaculture sites (total of 12 ponds, 6 at each site). High-throughput sequencing was used to determine the structure of the bacterial community and the diversity in water and sediment samples. The relationship between nutrients, heavy metals, and bacterial communities and the changes of the three before and after the improvement of the sediment were analyzed. The results showed that Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Acidobacteria, Chloroflexi, and Firmicutes were predominant at the phylum level of sediment. Sediment improvement has an effect on NH4+-N, sulfide, total organic carbon (TOC), and heavy metals in sediments to varying degrees. In addition, redundancy analysis found that NH4+-N, NO3−-N, TP, and heavy metals were key drivers in crab culture pond sediments. The results of functional prediction showed that carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur metabolism were the dominant processes in the two crab farming areas. Overall, changes in nutrients and heavy metals caused by sediment improvement further affected the structure and function of bacterial communities and may affect biogeochemical cycles. Our study has deepened the understanding of the effects of sediment improvement on nutrients, heavy metals, and bacterial communities in crab culture ponds.

Laboratory Studies of Internal Solitary Waves Propagating and Breaking over Submarine Canyons - Ying-Tien Lin; Ling Liu; Biyun Sheng; Yeping Yuan; Keke Hu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
This paper carried out laboratory experiments to study evolution of internal solitary waves (ISWs) over submarine canyons with a combination of PIV (particle image velocimetry) and PLIF (planar laser-induced fluorescence) techniques. Taking canyon angle θ and collapse height ∆H as variables, Froude number Fr, head position, energy loss, vorticity field and turbulence intensity when ISWs propagate to the canyon were analyzed. According to the Froude number Fr values, the study cases can be divided into three types: Fr > 1.7 means complete internal hydraulic jump (IHJ); 1

The Impacts of Dietary Curcumin on Innate Immune Responses and Antioxidant Status in Greater Amberjack (Seriola dumerili) under Ammonia Stress - Chuanpeng Zhou; Zhong Huang; Shengjie Zhou; Jing Hu; Rui Yang; Jun Wang; Yun Wang; Wei Yu; Heizhao Lin; Zhenhua Ma (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
In this study, we investigated the effect of dietary curcumin on non-specific immune responses and antioxidative ability in Seriola dumerili under ammonia stress and post-recovery. Three diets were prepared to contain 0, 75, and 150 mg/kg of curcumin. A total of 225 greater amberjack (initial weight: 100.90 ± 0.03 g) were distributed into nine cylindrical tanks, constituting an experimental design with three treatments and three replicates. After 56 days of feeding, plasma, intestinal, and hepatic enzyme activities were evaluated. Then, an acute ammonia challenge experiment was conducted. Ten fish per tank were subjected to acute ammonia stress (total ammonia-N: 1000 mg/L) for eight minutes followed by six minutes of recovery. The results indicated that dietary curcumin significantly promoted intestinal and hepatic alkaline phosphatase (ALP) and acid phosphatase (ACP) levels as well as hepatic antioxidative enzymes such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), reduced glutathione (GSH), and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px) of greater amberjack. In addition, curcumin addition improved the activities of antioxidant enzymes, such as SOD, T-AOC, GSH, GSH-Px, and catalase (CAT), and reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) content in liver, spleen, head kidney, and brain tissues after post-recovery. The indexes related to immunity and antioxidant enzymes in the liver, gill, and spleen rose again to some extent, but they showed the worst recovery ability in the head kidney and brain tissue samples. These results indicate that dietary curcumin supplementation could increase non-specific immune responses, antioxidant ability, and enhance resistance to high ammonia stress in juvenile S. dumerili.

Spatial scale‐dependent dilution effects of biodiversity on plant diseases in grasslands - Xiang Liu; Yao Xiao; Ziyuan Lin; Xingxing Wang; Kui Hu; Mu Liu; Yimin Zhao; Yanwen Qi; Shurong Zhou (Ecology, 2023)
The rapid biodiversity losses of the Anthropocene have motivated ecologists to understand how biodiversity affects infectious diseases. Spatial scale is thought to moderate negative biodiversity–disease relationships (i.e., dilution effects) in zoonotic diseases, whereas evidence from plant communities for an effect of scale remains limited, especially at local scales where the mechanisms (e.g., encounter reduction) underlying dilution effects actually work. Here, we tested how spatial scale affects the direction and magnitude of biodiversity–disease relationships. We utilized a 10‐year‐old nitrogen addition experiment in a Tibetan alpine meadow, with 0, 5, 10, and 15 g/m 2 nitrogen addition treatments. Within the treatment plots, we arranged a total of 216 quadrats (of either 0.125 × 0.125 m, 0.25 × 0.25 m or 0.5 × 0.5 m size) to test how the sample area affects the relationship between plant species richness and foliar fungal disease severity. We found that the dilution effects were stronger in the 0.125 × 0.125 m and 0.25 × 0.25 m quadrats, compared with 0.5 × 0.5 m quadrats. There was a significant interaction between species richness and nitrogen addition in the 0.125 × 0.125 m and 0.25 × 0.25 m quadrats, indicating that a dilution effect was more easily observed under higher levels of nitrogen addition. Based on multigroup structural equation models, we found that even accounting for the direct impact of nitrogen addition (i.e., “nitrogen‐disease hypothesis”), the dilution effect still worked at the 0.125 × 0.125 m scale. Overall, these findings suggest that spatial scale directly determines the occurrence of dilution effects, and can partly explain the observed variation in biodiversity–disease relationships in grasslands. Next‐generation frameworks for predicting infectious diseases under rapid biodiversity loss scenarios need to incorporate spatial information.

The emergence of prolonged deadly humid heatwaves - Xiang‐Sheng Wang; Lei He; Xiao‐Hu Ma; Qiang Bie; Lin Luo; You‐Cai Xiong; Jian‐Sheng Ye (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Deadly humid heat conditions exceeding human thermoregulatory capacity have been reported; however, whether and where the deadly humid heat events occur consecutively across the land surface are largely unknown. We calculate the maximum consecutive days of deadly humid heat, defined as daily maximum wet‐bulb temperature (TWmax) ≥35°C, for observations of 9,278 meteorological stations and for simulations of 14 global climate models. We further define short and long deadly humid heatwaves as a period of 3–4 and ≥5 consecutive days with daily TWmax ≥35°C, respectively. Our analyses show that six stations in some subtropical regions have experienced deadly humid heat with daily TWmax ≥35°C, but only occurs in individual days. Deadly humid heatwaves increase exponentially as the global mean temperature rising. When limiting global warming within 1.5°C, long deadly humid heatwaves will not occur across the land surface, and short deadly humid heatwaves will only emerge in some drylands but not in humid areas. Under 2°C warming, 0.09% of the global land, 0.42% of the human population, and 0.56% of the global centres of crop diversity are projected to be exposed to long deadly humid heatwaves. Meanwhile, 18% of the deadly humid heatwaves lasting ≥3 consecutive days will occur in humid areas; the fractions are projected to rapidly increase in humid areas as temperature rising further. At the end of the century, the percentage of land areas and human population exposed to deadly humid heatwaves lasting ≥3 consecutive days are expected to be 76‐times higher than that under 1.5°C warming level. Our finding suggests that keeping global warming within 1.5°C will significantly constrain the emergence of prolonged deadly humid heatwaves and thus reduce the risk of the human population especially outdoor agricultural workers.

Administration of the Potential Probiotic Paenibacillus ehimensis NPUST1 Enhances Expression of Indicator Genes Associated with Nutrient Metabolism, Growth and Innate Immunity against Aeromonas hydrophila and Streptococcus indie Infections in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) - Pei-Hui Lin; Sai-Wei Chen; Zhi-Hong Wen; Shao-Yang Hu (Fishes, 2022)
Probiotics as antibiotic alternatives for preventing and controlling infectious diseases are a relatively eco-friendly strategy in aquaculture. The bacteriocin-producing probiotic Paenibacillus ehimensis NPUST1 was isolated from tilapia culture pond water in our previous study. The present study demonstrated that P. ehimensis NPUST1 produced hydrolytic enzymes, including protease, amylase, cellulase, xylanase and lipase. The effects of P. ehimensis NPUST1 on zebrafish nutrient metabolism, growth performance and innate immunity were evaluated by measuring the expression of indicator genes in zebrafish after feeding P. ehimensis NPUST1 at doses of 106 and 107 CFU/g for 8 weeks. There was an obvious increase in the hepatic mRNA expression of carbohydrate metabolism-related genes, including glucokinase, hexokinase 1, glucose-6-phosphatase, and pyruvate kinase, and growth-related genes, including the growth hormone receptor and insulin-like growth factor-1. The expression of the innate immune-related genes including interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-15, tumor necrosis factor-α, toll-like receptor (TLR)-1, TLR-4, complement component C3b and lysozyme were significantly increased in P. ehimensis NPUST1-supplemented fish. A significant reduction in cumulative mortality was exhibited in P. ehimensis NPUST1-supplemented fish after infection with Aeromonas hydrophila and Streptococcus iniae. In conclusion, our data suggested that P. ehimensis NPUST1 supplementation in feed could potentially improve nutrient metabolism and growth in addition to enhancing innate immunity and disease resistance against A. hydrophila and S. iniae in zebrafish.

An Underwater Inductive Power Transfer System with a Compact Receiver and Reduced Eddy Current Loss - Zhengchao Yan; Chenxu Zhao; Qianyu Hu; Min Wu; Lin Qiao; Kehan Zhang; Yuli Hu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Inductive power transfer (IPT) technology is widely used in autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) to achieve safety and flexibility. However, the eddy current loss (ECL) will be generated in the seawater due to the high-frequency alternating current in the transmitter and receiver. An underwater IPT system with a series-none (SN) compensation topology is proposed in this paper to achieve a compact receiver for AUVs and reduce the ECL. The analytical model of the IPT system is built to analyze its transfer performance. The phase difference between the transmitter and receiver current of the SN compensation topology is larger than 90° compared to that of the conventional series-series (SS) topology, which can significantly decrease the magnitude of the electric field caused by coil currents; thus, the eddy current loss is reduced. Moreover, the optimal load resistance of the seawater IPT system is lower than that in the air, and the SN compensation topology has a more compact receiver with no compensation capacitor in the receiving side, which can save the internal space in the AUVs. An experimental prototype based on the SN topology is built, and the experimental results have verified the analysis.

Transcranial Direct-Current Stimulation Regulates MCT1-PPA-PTEN-LONP1 Signaling to Confer Neuroprotection After Rat Cerebral Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury - Xiangyi Kong; Wenjie Hu; Yu Cui; Jingchen Gao; Xujin Yao; Jinyang Ren; Tao Lin; Jiangdong Sun; Yunyi Gao; Xiaohua Li; Hui Wang; Huanting Li; et al. (Molecular Neurobiology, 2022)
Propionic acid (PPA) is a critical metabolite involved in microbial fermentation, which functions to reduce fat production, inhibit inflammation, and reduce serum cholesterol levels. The role of PPA in the context of cerebral ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) injury has yet to be clarified. Increasing evidence indicate that transcranial direct-current stimulation (tDCS) is a safe approach that confers neuroprotection in cerebral ischemia injury. Here, we show that the levels of PPA were reduced in the ischemic brain following a rat cerebral I/R injury and in the cultured rat cortical neurons after oxygen–glucose deprivation (OGD), an in vitro model of ischemic injury. We found that the decreased levels of transporter protein monocarboxylate transporter-1 (MCT1) were responsible for the OGD-induced reduction of PPA. Supplementing PPA reduced ischemia-induced neuronal death after I/R. Moreover, our results revealed that the neuroprotective effect of PPA is mediated through downregulation of phosphatase PTEN and subsequent upregulation of Lon protease 1 (LONP1). We demonstrated that direct-current stimulation (DCS) increased MCT1 expression and PPA level in OGD-insulted neurons, while tDCS decreased the brain infarct volume in the MCAO rats via increasing the levels of MCT1 expression and PPA. This study supports a potential application of tDCS in ischemic stroke.

Purpose Reduced physical activity is reported in the elderly, especially in institutional residents. Institutionalized older adults exhibit a high prevalence of frailty. In this work, we developed an artificial intelligence of things (AIoT)-based feedback assistive strengthening ergometer (AIFASE), for the physical strengthening of the elderly with intelligent assistance. Methods We conducted a 12-week intervention in a long-term care facility. In total, 16 participants (84.38 ± 6.0 years; 4 males and 12 females) were recruited with 1:1 randomization of exercise to control groups. The muscle strength of the lower extremities, timed up and go test (TUG), and Short-form Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) of the participants were measured. The AIFASE system allows the clinical staff to record the personal physical performance of the elderly and generates personalized exercise prescriptions accordingly. AIFASE also displays the current usage status of all ergometers and the users’ physiological conditions. The algorithms were developed to generate warning alerts when the training workload was too large by personal physiological detection. AIFASE automatically customized the exercise prescription according to the user’s exercise performance. Results After a 12-week AIFASE intervention, the intervention group exhibited significant improvements in the strength of the hip flexor, Semi-Tandem Stand, and Tandem Stand. Conclusion In this study, we developed an AIoT ergometer that delivered customized physical training prescriptions to improve the physical performance of long-term care facility residents. We believe that the application of AIFASE will help improve the quality of institutional care.

Forecasts of MJO during DYNAMO in a coupled tropical channel model, Part I: Impact of parameterization schemes - Yun Hu; Xiaochun Wang; Jing‐Jia Luo; Dongxiao Wang; Huiping Yan; Chaoxia Yuan; Xia Lin (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
A coupled tropical channel model is developed to forecast the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) event during the Dynamics of the MJO (DYNAMO) campaign period. Eight sets of 30‐day hindcast experiments are performed using different combinations of cumulus parameterization and planetary boundary layer (PBL) schemes. The results indicate that a well‐simulated mean state is a prerequisite for MJO forecast, and the model's ability to reproduce the mean state is sensitive to the parameterization schemes. The experiment with Tiedtke (TDK) cumulus parameterization and University of Washington (UW) PBL schemes can successfully predict the MJO event. Over the equatorial Indian Ocean, this experiment has a good representation of zonal sea surface temperature (SST) gradient and low‐level westerly wind, favouring a reasonable atmospheric circulation. As a result of boundary‐layer convergence in the eastern Indian Ocean, more water vapour is gathered in the low‐middle troposphere by updrafts, contributing to the PBL moistening ahead of the MJO convection and the eastward‐propagation of MJO precipitation. Further analysis reveals that the high cloud is accompanied by strong convection. A better simulation in tropical high cloud fraction helps trap the cloud radiation heating to warm middle‐upper troposphere, which promotes the MJO propagation. Our results suggest that the selection of proper parameterization schemes with a better‐simulated mean state is crucial to predicting the MJO event in the tropical channel model.

Aridity differentially alters the stability of soil bacterial and fungal networks in coastal and inland areas of Australia - Qing‐Lin Chen; Qian Xiang; An‐Qi Sun; Hang‐Wei Hu (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Despite the importance of soil bacterial and fungal communities for ecosystem services and human welfare, how their ecological networks respond to climatic aridity have yet been evaluated. Here, we collected soil samples from 47 sites across 2500 km in coastal and inland areas of eastern Australia with contrasting status of aridity. We found that the diversity of both bacteria and fungi significantly differed between inland and coastal soils. Despite the significant differences in soil nutrient availability and stoichiometry between the inland and coastal regions, aridity was the most important predictor of bacterial and fungal community compositions. Aridity has altered the potential microbial migration rates and further impacted the microbial assembly processes by increasing the importance of stochasticity in bacterial and fungal communities. More importantly, ecological network analysis indicated that aridity enhanced the complexity and stability of the bacterial network but reduced that of the fungal network, possibly due to the contrasting impacts of aridity on the community‐level habitat niche breadth and overlaps. Our work paves the way towards a more comprehensive understanding of how climate changes will alter soil microbial communities, which is integral to predicting their long‐term consequences for ecosystem sustainability and resilience to future disturbances.

Uncertainty in Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation derived from different observed datasets and their possible causes - Bowen Zhao; Pengfei Lin; Aixue Hu; Hailong Liu; Mengrong Ding; Zipeng Yu; Yongqiang Yu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
As a leading mode of sea surface temperature (SST) variability over the North Atlantic in both observations and model simulations, the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation (AMO) can have a substantial influence on regional and global climate. By using Low-Frequency Component Analysis, we explore the uncertainties of the resulting AMO indices and the corresponding spatial patterns derived from three observational SST datasets. We found that the known coherent spatial pattern of the AMO at the basin scale over the North Atlantic appears in two out of the three datasets. Further analysis indicates that both the warming trend and the different techniques used to construct these observed gridded SSTs contribute to the AMO’s spatial coherence over the North Atlantic, especially during periods of sparse data sampling. The SST in the Extended Reconstructed SST dataset version 5 (ERSSTv5), changes from being systematically below the other datasets during the dense sampling periods on either side of the Second World War (WWII), to systematically above the other datasets during WWII, thereby introducing an artificial 10–20-year variability that affects the AMO’s spatial coherence. This coherence in the AMO’s spatial pattern is also affected by bias adjustment in ERSSTv5 at relative cool (i.e., non-summer) seasons, and by the heterogeneous North Atlantic warming pattern. The different AMO patterns can induce the different effects of wind, surface heat fluxes, and then drive ocean circulation and its heat transport convergence, especially for some seasons. For AMO indices, both the different detrending methods and different observational data result in uncertainty for the period 1935–1950. Such SST uncertainty is important to detect the relative role of the atmosphere and ocean in shaping the AMO.

Vitamin D regulates transepithelial acid secretion in zebrafish (Danio rerio) larvae - Chia-Hao Lin; Sian-Tai Liu; Yu-Chun Wang; Yi-Ling Tsou; Huei-Jyun Hu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Maintenance of an acid-base balance is essential for normal physiological processes in vertebrates. Freshwater fishes live in an aquatic environment with variable pH, and their buffering capacity for acid-base balance in body fluids is weak. Thus, after acid exposure, fishes secrete excess acid to prevent internal acidosis. Acid-secreting ionocytes present in the adult gills and embryonic skin are primarily responsible for acid secretion, and H + -ATPase and Na + /H + exchanger 3 (NHE3) are the two main transporters responsible for apical acid secretion. Vitamin D is a well-known hormone involved in the maintenance of Ca 2+ homeostasis and is suggested to be involved in acid-base regulation by modulating the activity and/or mRNA expression of NHE3 in mammalian models. It remains unclear whether vitamin D is involved in acid secretion in fishes. The aim of the present study was to use zebrafish as a model to determine whether vitamin D and its receptors influence acid secretion. Our results indicated that the levels of 1α, 25-dihydroxyvitamin D 3 (1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 ), the bioactive vitamin D, were significantly increased in 3 days post-fertilization zebrafish larvae after exposure to acidic freshwater (AFW, pH 4.0). Exogenous 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 (20 μg/L) incubation substantially enhanced the mRNA expression of acid-secreting transporters and acid secretion at the skin of the entire body and each H + -ATPase-rich cell (HRC), a type of acid-secreting ionocyte. Furthermore, the expression of vitamin D receptors (VDRs) was identified in HRCs of zebrafish. When both VDRa and VDRb were knocked down, acid secretion and the mRNA expression of acid-secreting transporters were significantly decreased. Moreover, double knockdown of VDRa/b prevented the increase in acid secretion induced by AFW and 1α,25(OH) 2 D 3 treatment. This study is the first to indicate that vitamin D is involved in acid secretion in fish.
