Vitamin D deficiency can damage the human immune system, and the complement system is a key component of the immune system. This study aimed to elucidate the mechanism by which vitamin D affects the immune system by analyzing the changes in the protein expression of the complement system under different vitamin D levels. We selected 40 participants and divided them into three groups according to their serum levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25(OH)VD): group A, 25(OH)VD ≥ 40 ng/mL; group B, 30 ng/mL ≤ 25(OH)VD < 40 ng/mL; and group C, 25(OH)VD < 30 ng/mL. Serum samples were subjected to biochemical analysis, followed by proteomic analysis using high-throughput untargeted proteomic techniques. Vitamin D deficiency increased the levels of fasting blood sugar, fasting serum insulin, and homeostasis model assessment (HOMA) of insulin resistance and decreased the secretion of HOMA of β-cell function, which led to insulin resistance and glucose metabolism disorder. Moreover, vitamin D deficiency resulted in the abnormal expression of 56 differential proteins, among which the expression levels of complement factor B, complement component C9, inducible co-stimulator ligand, and peptidase inhibitor 16 significantly changed with the decrease in vitamin D content. Functional enrichment analysis of these differential proteins showed that they were mainly concentrated in functions and pathways related to insulin secretion and inflammation. In conclusion, vitamin D deficiency not only contributes to insulin resistance and glucose metabolism disorder but also causes abnormal protein expression, resulting in the abnormal activation of the complement system. This study provides a novel theoretical basis for further studies on the relationship between vitamin D and the immune system.

Estimate of the degradation potentials of cellulose, xylan, and chitin across global prokaryotic communities - Dan‐dan Li; Zheng Zhang; Jia‐ning Wang; Peng Zhang; Ya Liu; Yue‐zhong Li (Environmental Microbiology, 2023)
Complex polysaccharides (e.g. cellulose, xylan, and chitin), the most abundant renewable biomass resources available on Earth, are mainly degraded by microorganisms in nature. However, little is known about the global distribution of the enzymes and microorganisms responsible for the degradation of cellulose, xylan, and chitin in natural environments. Through large‐scale alignments between the sequences released by the Earth Microbiome Project and sequenced prokaryotic genomes, we determined that almost all prokaryotic communities have the functional potentials to degrade cellulose, xylan, and chitin. The median abundances of genes encoding putative cellulases, xylanases, and chitinases in global prokaryotic communities are 0.51 (0.17–1.01), 0.24 (0.05–0.57), and 0.33 (0.11–0.71) genes/cell, respectively, and the composition and abundance of these enzyme systems are environmentally varied. The taxonomic sources of the three enzymes are highly diverse within prokaryotic communities, and the main factor influencing the diversity is the community's alpha diversity index rather than gene abundance. Moreover, there are obvious differences in taxonomic sources among different communities, and most genera with degradation potentials are narrowly distributed. In conclusion, our analysis preliminarily depicts a panorama of cellulose‐, xylan‐, and chitin‐degrading enzymatic systems across global prokaryotic communities.

Diverse variations in middle and high latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere spring phenology sensitivity to diurnal temperature during 1982–2015 - Guorong Deng; Hongyan Zhang; Jianjun Zhao; Xiaoyi Guo; Ehsan Biniyaz; Hang Zhao; Dan Guo; Rihan Wu; Hui Li (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Recent studies have revealed that the influence of diurnal temperature on spring phenology is asymmetric, and the faster night‐time warming in the Northern Hemisphere (NH) has a complex impact on spring phenology. Our understanding from the sensitivity of the start of the growing season (SOS) to daytime (S T _daytime) and night‐time temperatures (S T _night‐time) has urgently needs to be improved. In this study, the SOS sensitivity to diurnal temperature in the middle and high latitudes of the NH (>30°N) from 1982 to 2015 is estimated. The results indicate that although SOS showed stronger sensitivity to daytime than night‐time temperature in most parts of the study areas, the influence of daytime temperature on SOS is decreasing, while the influence of night‐time temperature on SOS is increasing. The variations in S T _daytime and S T _night‐time along the latitude gradient were significantly correlated with the warming rate of the preseason diurnal temperature ( p T _night‐time was higher than S T _daytime at other latitudes due to topography and rapid night‐time warming. On the altitude gradient, the SOS was more sensitive to daytime temperature in areas below 800 and 2,000–4,000 m. S T _night‐time exceeded S T _daytime at other altitudes owing to night‐time warming relief of the severe restrictions on phenological processes and the reduction in frost risk. To reach a comprehensive characterization of the interaction between vegetation and climate systems, the current study suggests more investigation on the response of SOS to diurnal temperature on large scales.

A Decision-Support Model for the Generation of Marine Green Tide Disaster Emergency Disposal Plans - Bo Ai; Dan Zhang; Maoxin Jia; Xiaoliang Wang; Jingxia Gao; Lei Wang; Benshuai Li; Hengshuai Shang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Green tide is a harmful marine ecological phenomenon caused by the explosive proliferation or high aggregation of some macroalgae, and can cause significant impacts on ecological environments and economies. An effective emergency disposal plan can significantly improve disposal capacity and reduce total costs. At present, the formulation of emergency disposal plans for green tide disasters usually depends on subjective experience. The primary purpose of this paper is to develop a decision-support model based on intelligent algorithms to optimize the type and number of resources when making emergency disposal plans so as to improve the reliability and efficiency of decision making. In order to simulate the decision-making environment more realistically, the drift motion of green tide is considered in this model. Two intelligent algorithms, the Genetic Algorithm (GA) and the improved Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm-II (IMNSGA-II), are used to solve the model and find appropriate emergency disposal plans. Finally, a case study on the green tide disaster that occurred in Qingdao (Yellow Sea, China) is conducted to demonstrate the effectiveness and optimization of the proposed model. Through the model proposed in this paper, the overall response time and cost can be reduced in green tide disaster emergency operations.

Effects of Dietary Vegetable Oils Replacing Fish Oil on Fatty Acid Composition, Lipid Metabolism and Inflammatory Response in Adipose Tissue of Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea) - Dan Xu; Xiaojun Xiang; Xueshan Li; Ning Xu; Wencong Zhang; Kangsen Mai; Qinghui Ai (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary vegetable oils (VOs) replacing fish oil (FO) on fatty acid composition, lipid metabolism and inflammatory response in adipose tissue (AT) of large yellow croaker (Larimichthys crocea). The initial body weight of a large yellow croaker was 10.07 ± 0.13 g. Three iso-nitrogenous and iso-lipidic diets were formulated by replacing FO with 0% (the control group), 100% soybean oil (SO) and 100% linseed oil (LO). Results showed that the contents of C18:2n-6 and C18:3n-3 were significantly increased in AT of fish fed the SO and LO diets compared with the FO diet, respectively. The proportion of n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) was increased in SO and LO diets, while the proportions of saturated fatty acid and n-3 LC-PUFA were decreased. Moreover, dietary SO and LO significantly induced excess fat accumulation of AT by increasing the triglyceride content and the hypertrophy of adipocytes. Dietary SO and LO significantly increased lipogenesis-related gene expressions (dagt2, fabp10, srebp1, cebpα and pparγ), while decreasing the gene expression of lpl. Meanwhile, dietary SO increased the expression of genes related to fatty acid β-oxidation (cpt1 and aco), while LO showed no differences. Furthermore, dietary SO and LO increased the pro-inflammatory gene expressions and decreased the anti-inflammatory gene il10 expression. The phosphorylation levels of p38 MAPK and NF-κB were significantly upregulated by dietary SO and LO. In addition, there was a significant increase in macrophage infiltration and M1 polarization in AT of fish fed SO and LO diets. In conclusion, the present study revealed that dietary SO and LO replacing FO affected fatty acid composition and induced lipid dysmetabolism and inflammatory response in the adipose tissue of large yellow croaker.

Overexpression of transcriptional regulator and tailoring enzyme leads to the discovery of anti-inflammatory meroterpenoids from marine-derived fungus Alternaria alternata JJY-32 - Guowei Liu; Dan Liu; Zongyuan Li; Jieying Jiao; Xuewen Hou; Xiaomin Zhang; Qian Che; Tianjiao Zhu; Dehai Li; Guojian Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Four new ACTG-toxins like meroterpenoids tricycloalternarenes O-R were discovered from a marine-derived fungus Alternaria alternata JJY-32 by the overexpression of a LaeA-like global transcriptional regulator and a MpaB-like biosynthetic tailoring enzyme. Among those structures, tricycloalternarene O possesses a non-canonical cyclohexanone-pyran fused furan ring structure and tricycloalternarene R contains a truncated isoprenoid terminal. The structures were elucidated based on comprehensive 1D and 2D NMR data and assisted by ECD calculations. Tricycloalternarenes O-R showed potent anti-inflammatory activity in TLR4-transfected microphage cells (RAW264.7).

Despite the apparent absence of physical barriers in the ocean to prevent dispersal, recent studies have highlighted the importance of biological, geographical, physical, and historical barriers in the genetic structuring of marine species populations. This representation is essential for the sustainable exploitation of natural marine resources and for the setup of efficient protected area networks for the conservation of marine species. In this study, we used extensive sampling of Sebastiscus marmoratus , a commercially important inshore rockfish with high site fidelity, to characterize their population genetic structure along the China–Japan coast and to determine the effect of past geological and current biological–physical barriers on the current genetic footprint. A 461-bp fragment of the mtDNA hypervariable portion control region was sequenced for 675 individuals from 15 geographical locations. A total of 292 haplotypes were identified. The population of S. marmoratus showed high haplotype and nucleotide diversity. Pairwise fixation index ( F ST ) and analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) revealed significant genetic differentiation among populations. The Bayesian skyline plots and neutrality statistics showed a sudden expansion of the S. marmoratus population around the Pleistocene. The Beibu Gulf group had the lowest mean number of pairwise differences, the lowest significant genetic differentiation, and the lowest haplotype and nucleotide diversity, and should be prioritized for protection in the future. Ocean currents, seascape discontinuity, geographical distance, and ecological characteristics may play an important role in shaping the contemporary phylogeographical patterns and population structures of S. marmoratus .

Purpose Neutralizing antibodies, administrated through intravenous infusion, have shown to be highly efficacious in treating mild and moderate COVID-19 caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection in the lung. However, antibodies do not transport across the plasma-lung barrier efficiently, and up to 100 mg/kg dose was used in human causing significant supply and cost burdens. This study was to explore the feasibility of nebulized antibodies inhalation delivery as an alternative route. Methods HB27, a potent RBD-specific humanized monoclonal antibody (Zhu et al. in National Sci Rev. 8:nwaa297, 2020), showed excellent protection against SARS-CoV-2 in animal model and good safety profile in clinical studies. The pharmacokinetics and preliminary safety of HB27 administrated through the respiratory tract were studied in mice and cynomolgus monkeys here. Results At a single 5 mg/kg dose, the peak HB27 concentration in mice pulmonary epithelial lining fluid (ELF) reached 857.8 μg/mL, 670-fold higher than the PRNT 90 value of 1.28 μg/mL, and maintained above PRNT 90 over 240 h. In contrast, when administrated by intravenous injection at a 5 mg/kg dose, the antibody concentrations in mice ELF were below PRNT 90 value throughout, and were about 50-fold lower than that in the serum. In cynomolgus monkeys administrated with a single dose through inhalation, the antibody concentration in ELF remained high within 3 days. No drug-related safety concerns were observed in the studies. Conclusions The study demonstrated that nebulized neutralizing antibody delivery though inhalation could be a more efficient and efficacious alternative approach for treating COVID-19 and other respiratory infectious diseases, and warrants further evaluation in clinical studies.

Estrogen Receptor-A in Medial Preoptic Area Contributes to Sex Difference of Mice in Response to Sevoflurane Anesthesia - Yunyun Zhang; Huiming Li; Xinxin Zhang; Sa Wang; Dan Wang; Jiajia Wang; Tingting Tong; Zhen Zhang; Qianzi Yang; Hailong Dong (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2022)
A growing number of studies have identified sex differences in response to general anesthesia; however, the underlying neural mechanisms are unclear. The medial preoptic area (MPA), an important sexually dimorphic structure and a critical hub for regulating consciousness transition, is enriched with estrogen receptor alpha (ERα), particularly in neuronal clusters that participate in regulating sleep. We found that male mice were more sensitive to sevoflurane. Pharmacological inhibition of ERα in the MPA abolished the sex differences in sevoflurane anesthesia, in particular by extending the induction time and facilitating emergence in males but not in females. Suppression of ERα in vitro inhibited GABAergic and glutamatergic neurons of the MPA in males but not in females. Furthermore, ERα knockdown in GABAergic neurons of the male MPA was sufficient to eliminate sex differences during sevoflurane anesthesia. Collectively, MPA ERα positively regulates the activity of MPA GABAergic neurons in males but not in females, which contributes to the sex difference of mice in sevoflurane anesthesia.

Potential Application of Biosurfactant-Producing Bacteria for Bioremediation of Oil Polluted Marine Intertidal Sediments - Ping Guo; Wei-Wei Xu; Dan-Na Wei; Man-Xia Zhang; Jin Zhang; Shi Tang; Bin-Xia Cao; Jian-Guo Lin; Wei Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The removal of oil contaminants in marine intertidal sediments under cold climate is an urgent issue. Although the bioavailability of petroleum hydrocarbons decreases at low temperatures, biosurfactants can promote oil biodegradation. In this study, characteristics of biosurfactants produced by cold-adapted oil-degrading bacteria Planococcus sp. XW-1 were studied. Adding the XW-1 biosurfactant could effectively facilitate the solubility of phenanthrene, pyrene, diesel oil, and crude oil. The solubilization was limited by the number of rings and the molecular weight (WSRphenanthrene = 0.0234; WSRpyrene = 0.0165; WSRdiesel oil = 0.0027; WSRcrude oil = 0.0015). Additional biosurfactants significantly washed out crude oil adsorbed to the sand (reduction from 17.1%, 22.7% to 87.9% and 94.28% in 24 h). With the increase in particle size, the removal efficiency increased from 87.9% to 94.28%. After the addition of biosurfactant, the effect of degradation increased by 20% in 20 days. The results suggest that the biosurfactant-producing bacteria Planococcus sp. XW-1 is a promising candidate used in the in situ bioremediation of petroleum-contaminated intertidal sediment.

Central sensitization is essential in maintaining chronic pain induced by chronic pancreatitis (CP), but cortical modulation of painful CP remains elusive. Here, we examined the role of the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) in the pathogenesis of abdominal hyperalgesia in a rat model of CP induced by intraductal administration of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). TNBS treatment resulted in long-term abdominal hyperalgesia and anxiety in rats. Morphological data indicated that painful CP induced a significant increase in FOS-expressing neurons in the nucleus tractus solitarii (NTS) and ACC, and some FOS-expressing neurons in the NTS projected to the ACC. In addition, a larger portion of ascending fibers from the NTS innervated pyramidal neurons, the neural subpopulation primarily expressing FOS under the condition of painful CP, rather than GABAergic neurons within the ACC. CP rats showed increased expression of vesicular glutamate transporter 1, and increased membrane trafficking and phosphorylation of the N -methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) subunit NR2B and the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid receptor (AMPAR) subunit GluR1 within the ACC. Microinjection of NMDAR and AMPAR antagonists into the ACC to block excitatory synaptic transmission significantly attenuated abdominal hyperalgesia in CP rats, which was similar to the analgesic effect of endomorphins injected into the ACC. Specifically inhibiting the excitability of ACC pyramidal cells via chemogenetics reduced both hyperalgesia and comorbid anxiety, whereas activating these neurons via optogenetics failed to aggravate hyperalgesia and anxiety in CP rats. Taken together, these findings provide neurocircuit, biochemical, and behavioral evidence for involvement of the ACC in hyperalgesia and anxiety in CP rats, as well as novel insights into the cortical modulation of painful CP, and highlights the ACC as a potential target for neuromodulatory interventions in the treatment of painful CP.

Zkscan3 affects erythroblast development by regulating the transcriptional activity of GATA1 and KLF1 in mice - Zixuan Li; Binjie Sheng; Tingting Zhang; Tian Wang; Dan Chen; Gangli An; Xingbing Wang; Huimin Meng; Lin Yang (Journal of Molecular Histology, 2022)
ZKSCAN3 encodes a zinc-finger transcription factor that regulates the expression of important genes and plays a significant role in tumor development, pathogenesis, and metastasis. However, its biological functions under normal physiological conditions remain largely unknown. In our previous studies, using flow cytometry, we found that the deletion of Zkscan3 may cause abnormal erythropoiesis. In this study, we found that, in a Zkscan3 knockout mice model, the number of splenic early-stage (basophilic-erythroblasts) and late-stage (chromatophilic-erythroblasts to polychromatophilic-erythroblasts through orthochromatophilic-erythroblasts) erythroblasts increased, whereas the number of late erythroblasts in the bone marrow decreased. Moreover, the phenotype was exacerbated after treating mice with phenylhydrazine (PHZ), which causes severe hemolytic anemia. In the knockout mice treated with PHZ, the percentage of reticulocyte in the peripheral blood conspicuously increased, whereas MCHC and red blood cells decreased. Then, we performed RNA-seq and quantitative-polymerase chain reaction assay and found that the expression of GATA1 and Tiam1 in erythroblasts were upregulated, whereas KLF1 was downregulated. Luciferase assays showed that Zkscan3 inhibited the transcription of GATA1 and Tiam1 and promoted the expression of KLF1 . Additionally, ChIP and CO-IP results confirmed that Zkscan3 directly interacts with GATA1 and inhibits its transcriptional activity in MEL cells. Our results demonstrate, for the first time, the significant role of Zkscan3 in physiological erythropoiesis through the interaction with GATA1, both at the DNA and protein level, and with Tiam1 and KLF1 at the DNA level.

Summary Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has caused high number of infections and deaths of healthcare workers globally. Distribution and possible transmission route of SARS‐CoV‐2 in hospital environment should be clarified. We herein collected 431 environmental (391 surface and 40 air) samples in the intensive care unit (ICU) and general wards (GWs) of three hospitals in Wuhan, China from February 21 to March 4, 2020, and detected SARS‐CoV‐2 RNA by real‐time quantitative PCR. The viral positive rate in the contaminated areas was 17.8% (28/157), whereas there was no virus detected in the clean areas. Higher positive rate (22/59, 37.3%) was found in ICU than that in GWs (3/63, 4.8%). The surfaces of computer keyboards and mouse in the ICU were the most contaminated (8/10, 80.0%), followed by the ground (6/9, 66.7%) and outer glove (2/5, 40.0%). From 17 air samples in the contaminated areas, only one sample collected at a distance of around 30 cm from the patient was positive. Enhanced surface disinfection and hand hygiene effectively decontaminated the virus from the environment. This finding might help understand the transmission route and contamination risk of SARS‐CoV‐2 and evaluate the effectiveness of infection prevention and control measures in healthcare facilities.

Divergence in the Aquilegia ecalcarata complex is correlated with geography and climate oscillations: Evidence from plastid genome data - Cheng Xue; Fang‐Dong Geng; Jiao‐Jie Li; Dan‐Qing Zhang; Fei Gao; Lei Huang; Xiao‐Hui Zhang; Ju‐Qing Kang; Jian‐Qiang Zhang; Yi Ren (Molecular Ecology, 2021)
Quaternary climate oscillations and geographical heterogeneity play important roles in determining species and genetic diversity distribution patterns, but how these factors affect the migration and differentiation of East Asian plants species at the population level remains poorly understood. The Aquilegia ecalcarata complex, a group that originated in the Late Tertiary and is widely distributed throughout East Asia, displays high genetic variation that is suitable for studying elaborate phylogeographic patterns and demographic history related to the impact of Quaternary climate and geography. We used plastid genome data from 322 individuals in 60 populations of the A . ecalcarata complex to thoroughly explore the impact of Quaternary climate oscillations and geography on the phylogeographic patterns and demographic history of the A . ecalcarata complex through a series of phylogenetic, divergence time estimation, and demographic history analyses. The dry, cold climate and frequent climate oscillations that occurred during the early Pleistocene and the Mid‐Pleistocene transition led to the differentiation of the A . ecalcarata complex, which was isolated in various areas. Geographically, the A . ecalcarata complex can be divided into Eastern and Western Clades and five subclades, which conform to the divergence of the East Asian flora. Our results clearly show the impact of Quaternary climate and geography on evolutionary history at the population level. These findings promote the understanding of the relationship between plant genetic differentiation and climate and geographical factors of East Asia at the population level.

Phosphorus rather than nitrogen regulates ecosystem carbon dynamics after permafrost thaw - Guibiao Yang; Yunfeng Peng; Benjamin W. Abbott; Christina Biasi; Bin Wei; Dianye Zhang; Jun Wang; Jianchun Yu; Fei Li; Guanqin Wang; Dan Kou; Futing Liu; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2021)
Ecosystem carbon (C) dynamics after permafrost thaw depends on more than just climate change since soil nutrient status may also impact ecosystem C balance. It has been advocated that nitrogen (N) release upon permafrost thaw could promote plant growth and thus offset soil C loss. However, compared with the widely accepted C‐N interactions, little is known about the potential role of soil phosphorus (P) availability. We combined 3‐year field observations along a thaw sequence (constituted by four thaw stages, i.e., non‐collapse and 5, 14, and 22 years since collapse) with an in‐situ fertilization experiment (included N and P additions at the level of 10 g N m −2 year −1 and 10 g P m −2 year −1 ) to evaluate ecosystem C‐nutrient interactions upon permafrost thaw. We found that changes in soil P availability rather than N availability played an important role in regulating gross primary productivity and net ecosystem productivity along the thaw sequence. The fertilization experiment confirmed that P addition had stronger effects on plant growth than N addition in this permafrost ecosystem. These two lines of evidence highlight the crucial role of soil P availability in altering the trajectory of permafrost C cycle under climate warming.

AUV Obstacle Avoidance Planning Based on Deep Reinforcement Learning - Jianya Yuan; Hongjian Wang; Honghan Zhang; Changjian Lin; Dan Yu; Chengfeng Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
In a complex underwater environment, finding a viable, collision-free path for an autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) is a challenging task. The purpose of this paper is to establish a safe, real-time, and robust method of collision avoidance that improves the autonomy of AUVs. We propose a method based on active sonar, which utilizes a deep reinforcement learning algorithm to learn the processed sonar information to navigate the AUV in an uncertain environment. We compare the performance of double deep Q-network algorithms with that of a genetic algorithm and deep learning. We propose a line-of-sight guidance method to mitigate abrupt changes in the yaw direction and smooth the heading changes when the AUV switches trajectory. The different experimental results show that the double deep Q-network algorithms ensure excellent collision avoidance performance. The effectiveness of the algorithm proposed in this paper was verified in three environments: random static, mixed static, and complex dynamic. The results show that the proposed algorithm has significant advantages over other algorithms in terms of success rate, collision avoidance performance, and generalization ability. The double deep Q-network algorithm proposed in this paper is superior to the genetic algorithm and deep learning in terms of the running time, total path, performance in avoiding collisions with moving obstacles, and planning time for each step. After the algorithm is trained in a simulated environment, it can still perform online learning according to the information of the environment after deployment and adjust the weight of the network in real-time. These results demonstrate that the proposed approach has significant potential for practical applications.

Contributions of natural climate variability on the trends of seasonal precipitation extremes over China - Fuqiang Cao; Tao Gao; Li Dan; Fengxia Zhao; Xiang Gong; Xinyu Zhang; Xiaoyu Long; Junjie Zhan (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
The increased trends of extreme precipitation events over China have been partially attributed to global warming, while it is unclear how the natural climate variability affect these variations in extreme rainfall trends. Here we examine the contributions of large‐scale modes climate variability from the Pacific Ocean, which are represented by El Niño‐Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO), on the trends of seasonal extreme events across China. Results show that the effects of climate variability modes on precipitation extremes exhibit evidently spatiotemporal characteristics at the seasonal scale. A significant positive trend is found over southeastern and northwestern China in four seasons, and substantial increases in two types of extreme events are also seen over northwestern China in spring and winter. Most of the seasonal trends of extreme precipitation events can be explained by the trends of the principal components. El Niño (La Niña) and PDO–like sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies over the Pacific have a close linkage with the variations in precipitation extremes. By modulating the large‐scale atmospheric circulations, these Pacific SST anomalies associated with climatic oscillations, such as ENSO and PDO, provide the conducive conditions responsible for the occurrences of seasonal precipitation extremes across China. The seasonal trends of extreme events can be largely explained by the variability of the ENSO and PDO episodes, with a relatively larger modulation of PDO as compared to ENSO. These researches have important implications for improving seasonal flood disaster predictability and climate model performances.

Lateral Hypothalamic Area Glutamatergic Neurons and Their Projections to the Lateral Habenula Modulate the Anesthetic Potency of Isoflurane in Mice - Shiyi Zhao; Rui Li; Huiming Li; Sa Wang; Xinxin Zhang; Dan Wang; Juan Guo; Huihui Li; Ao Li; Tingting Tong; Haixing Zhong; Qianzi Yang; et al. (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2021)
The lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) plays a pivotal role in regulating consciousness transition, in which orexinergic neurons, GABAergic neurons, and melanin-concentrating hormone neurons are involved. Glutamatergic neurons have a large population in the LHA, but their anesthesia-related effect has not been explored. Here, we found that genetic ablation of LHA glutamatergic neurons shortened the induction time and prolonged the recovery time of isoflurane anesthesia in mice. In contrast, chemogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons increased the time to anesthesia and decreased the time to recovery. Optogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons during the maintenance of anesthesia reduced the burst suppression pattern of the electroencephalogram (EEG) and shifted EEG features to an arousal pattern. Photostimulation of LHA glutamatergic projections to the lateral habenula (LHb) also facilitated the emergence from anesthesia and the transition of anesthesia depth to a lighter level. Collectively, LHA glutamatergic neurons and their projections to the LHb regulate anesthetic potency and EEG features.

Regional consumption, material flows, and their driving forces: A case study of China's Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (Jing–Jin–Ji) urban agglomeration - Yanxian Li; Jiawen Wang; Dan Xian; Yan Zhang; Xiangyi Yu (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2021)
Continuous urbanization and a coordinated regional development strategy have gradually shaped urban agglomerations as new and massive centers of resource consumption in China. Therefore, understanding the material consumption status and the underlying mechanisms for typical Chinese urban agglomerations will support efforts to promote regional resource‐utilization sustainability. In this study, we analyzed material consumption and its structure in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (Jing–Jin–Ji) urban agglomeration from 2000 to 2015 and traced the sources of material consumption and underlying processes from a metabolic perspective. We also identified the main contributors and key drivers behind the changes of consumption during this period. The urban agglomeration's total consumption increased 2.2 times compared to the 2,000 level during the study period, with metallic minerals accounting for the largest proportion. Highly developed cities, including Beijing, Tianjin, Shijiazhuang, Tangshan, and Handan, consumed the largest amounts of materials and generated the most wastes. These cities also relied heavily on both internal and external resources and exchanged materials frequently among their metabolic compartments. Economic activity was the strongest contributor to the increased material consumption, followed by the population increase, whereas decreasing material‐consumption intensity (increased efficiency) restrained the growth of material consumption somewhat. Our application of the material‐flow accounting framework at the scale of an urban agglomeration provides support for future research on material consumption in other typical urban agglomerations, where it can provide support for policy development to alleviate regional resource shortages.

Diversity and potential biogeochemical impacts of viruses in bulk and rhizosphere soils - Li Bi; Dan‐Ting Yu; Shuai Du; Li‐Mei Zhang; Li‐Yu Zhang; Chuan‐Fa Wu; Chao Xiong; Li‐Li Han; Ji‐Zheng He (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Viruses can affect microbial dynamics, metabolism and biogeochemical cycles in aquatic ecosystems. However, viral diversity and functions in agricultural soils are poorly known, especially in the rhizosphere. We used virome analysis of eight rhizosphere and bulk soils to study viral diversity and potential biogeochemical impacts in an agro‐ecosystem. The order Caudovirales was the predominant viral type in agricultural soils, with Siphoviridae being the most abundant family. Phylogenetic analysis of the terminase large subunit of Caudovirales identified high viral diversity and three novel groups. Viral community composition differed significantly between bulk and rhizosphere soils. Soil pH was the main environmental driver of the viral community structure. Remarkably, abundant auxiliary carbohydrate‐active enzyme (CAZyme) genes were detected in viromes, including glycoside hydrolases, carbohydrate esterases and carbohydrate‐binding modules. These results demonstrate that virus‐encoded putative auxiliary metabolic genes or metabolic genes that may change bacterial metabolism and indirectly contribute to biogeochemical cycling, especially carbon cycling, in agricultural soil.

Key message Genomic selection with a multiple-year training population dataset could accelerate early-stage testcross testing by skipping the first-stage yield testing, which significantly saves the time and cost of early-stage testcross testing. Abstract With the development of doubled haploid (DH) technology, the main task for a maize breeder is to estimate the breeding values of thousands of DH lines annually. In early-stage testcross testing, genomic selection (GS) offers the opportunity of replacing expensive multiple-environment phenotyping and phenotypic selection with lower-cost genotyping and genomic estimated breeding value (GEBV)-based selection. In the present study, a total of 1528 maize DH lines, phenotyped in multiple-environment trials in three consecutive years and genotyped with a low-cost per-sample genotyping platform of rAmpSeq, were used to explore how to implement GS to accelerate early-stage testcross testing. Results showed that the average prediction accuracy estimated from the cross-validation schemes was above 0.60 across all the scenarios. The average prediction accuracies estimated from the independent validation schemes ranged from 0.23 to 0.32 across all the scenarios, when the one-year datasets were used as training population (TRN) to predict the other year data as testing population (TST). The average prediction accuracies increased to a range from 0.31 to 0.42 across all the scenarios, when the two-years datasets were used as TRN. The prediction accuracies increased to a range from 0.50 to 0.56, when the TRN consisted of two-years of breeding data and 50% of third year’s data converted from TST to TRN. This information showed that GS with a multiple-year TRN set offers the opportunity to accelerate early-stage testcross testing by skipping the first-stage yield testing, which significantly saves the time and cost of early-stage testcross testing.

Understanding diversity patterns requires accounting for the roles of both historical and contemporary factors in the assembly of communities. Here, we compared diversity patterns of two moth assemblages sampled from Taihang and Yanshan mountains in Northern China and performed ancestral range reconstructions using the Multi‐State Speciation and Extinction model, to track the origins of these patterns. Further, we estimated diversification rates of the two moth assemblages and explored the effects of contemporary ecological factors. From 7,788 specimens we identified 835 species belonging to 23 families, using both DNA barcode analysis and morphology. Moths in Yanshan mountains showed higher species diversity than in Taihang mountains. Ancestral range analysis indicated Yanshan as the origin, with significant historical dispersals from Yanshan to Taihang. Asymmetrical diversification, population expansion, along with frequent and considerable gene flow were detected between communities. Moreover, dispersal limitation or the joint effect of environment filtering and dispersal limitation were inferred as main driving forces shaping current diversity patterns. In summary, we demonstrate that a multiscale (community, population and species level) analysis incorporating both historical and contemporary factors can be useful in delineating factors contributing to community assembly and patterning in diversity.

Plastic pollution is a global concern given its prevalence in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Studies have been conducted on the distribution and impact of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems, but little is known on terrestrial ecosystems. Plastic mulch has been widely used to increase crop yields worldwide, yet the impact of plastic residues in cropland soils to soil health and crop production in the long term remained unclear. In this paper, using a global meta‐analysis, we found that the use of plastic mulch can indeed increase crop yields on average by 25%–42% in the immediate season due to the increase of soil temperature (+8%) and moisture (+17%). However, the unabated accumulation of film residues in the field negatively impacts its physicochemical properties linked to healthy soil and threatens food production in the long term. It has multiple negative impacts on plant growth including crop yield (at the mean rate of −3% for every additional 100 kg/ha of film residue), plant height (−2%) and root weight (−5%), and soil properties including soil water evaporation capacity (−2%), soil water infiltration rate (−8%), soil organic matter (−0.8%) and soil available phosphorus (−5%) based on meta‐regression. Using a nationwide field survey of China, the largest user of plastic mulch worldwide, we found that plastic residue accumulation in cropland soils has reached 550,800 tonnes, with an estimated 6%–10% reduction in cotton yield in some polluted sites based on current level of plastic residue content. Immediate actions should be taken to ensure the recovery of plastic film mulch and limit further increase in film residue loading to maintain the sustainability of these croplands.

RIG-I aggravates interstitial fibrosis via c-Myc-mediated fibroblast activation in UUO mice - Zhuanli Zhou; Jiayun Ni; Jingyao Li; Chuanbing Huo; Naijun Miao; Fan Yin; Qian Cheng; Dan Xu; Hongyan Xie; Panpan Chen; Peiqing Zheng; Yingying Zhang; et al. (Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2020)
Progressive tubulointerstitial fibrosis is the common final outcome for all kidney diseases evolving into chronic kidney disease (CKD), whereas molecular mechanisms driving fibrogenesis remain elusive. Retinoic acid-inducible gene-I (RIG-I), an intracellular pattern recognition receptor, is originally identified participating in immune response by recognizing virus RNA. Here, we revealed for the first time that RIG-I was induced in unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) and folic acid (FA) renal fibrosis models and moderate-degree renal fibrosis patients. Besides, we found RIG-I was mainly located in renal tubular epithelial cells and promoted the production and release of inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-6 through activation of NF-κB. Inflammatory cytokines released by tubular epithelial cells activated c-Myc-mediated TGF-β/Smad signaling in fibroblasts, which in turn aggravated interstitial fibrosis by promoting fibroblast activation and production of extracellular matrix components (ECM). Deficiency of RIG-I attenuated renal fibrosis by the regulation of inflammatory responses, c-Myc expression, and fibroblast activation. Besides, gene silencing of RIG-I reduced inflammatory cytokines in cultured tubular epithelial cells treated with Angiotensin II. Knockdown of c-Myc or c-Myc inhibitor blocked IL-1β-induced fibroblast activation. Collectively, our study demonstrates that RIG-I plays a significant role in the progress of renal fibrosis via regulating c-Myc-mediated fibroblast activation. Key messages • RIG-I was constantly elevated in kidneys from renal fibrotic mice. • RIG-I facilitated inflammatory cytokine production in tubular epithelial cells. • RIG-I aggravated renal fibrosis via c-Myc-mediated TGF-β/Smad activation.

Water and heat availability are drivers of the aboveground plant carbon accumulation rate in alpine grasslands on the Tibetan Plateau - Jian Sun; Tian‐Cai Zhou; Miao Liu; You‐Chao Chen; Guo‐Hua Liu; Ming Xu; Pei‐Li Shi; Fei Peng; Atsushi Tsunekawa; Yu Liu; Xiao‐Dan Wang; Shi‐Kui Dong; et al. (Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2020)
Aim Climate change is expected to have important effects on plant phenology and carbon storage, with further shifts predicted in the future. Therefore, we proposed the community carbon accumulation rate (CAR) from the start of the growing season (SOS) to the peak of the growing season (POS) to fill the gap that the dynamic interactions between plant phenology and plant carbon research. Location Tibetan Plateau. Major taxa Alpine grassland plants. Time period 2015. Methods We conducted a transect survey across grasslands to measure community aboveground net primary production and carbon concentration. Additionally, phenology indicator data (SOS and POS) were extracted from the Global Inventory Modeling and Mapping Studies (GIMMS) normalized difference vegetation index version 3 database. Next, we used ‘ changepoint ’ analysis to detect the patterns of CARs, and performed linear regression and one‐way ANOVA to explore the variability of CARs in response to the environmental factors. Ultimately, the total effects of environmental factors on CARs were illustrated by a structural equation model. Results Our results indicated that three CAR patterns were detected, which are low‐CAR (0.15 g/m 2 /day), medium‐CAR (0.31 g/m 2 /day) and high‐CAR (0.84 g/m 2 /day) patterns. We found that the availabilities of water and heat mediated CARs by regulating soil nutrition variability, and that drought climate and insufficient soil resources co‐constrained the community CAR at long time‐scales. In contrast, high CAR could be explained by more water and heat availability via either direct or indirect effects on soil moisture and soil nutrients. Main conclusions Our findings highlight that water and heat availability are critical driving factors in ecological carbon accumulation processes undergoing climate change. Meanwhile, the vegetative phenology also has important effect on carbon accumulation. Consequently, we propose incorporating the dynamic interactions between plant phenology and plant carbon into the ecological carbon cycle model to improve our understanding of resource utilization and survival strategies of plants under environmental change.

Summary Verticillium dahliae is a soil‐borne fungus that causes vascular wilt on numerous plants worldwide. The fungus survives in the soil for up to 14 years by producing melanized microsclerotia. The protective function of melanin in abiotic stresses is well documented. Here, we found that the V . dahliae tetraspan transmembrane protein VdSho1, a homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sho1, acts as an osmosensor, and is required for plant penetration and melanin biosynthesis. The deletion mutant Δ Sho1 was incubated on a cellophane membrane substrate that mimics the plant epidermis, revealing that the penetration of Δ Sho1 strain was reduced compared to the wild‐type strain. Furthermore, VdSho1 regulates melanin biosynthesis by a signalling mechanism requiring a kinase‐kinase signalling module of Vst50‐Vst11‐Vst7. Strains, Δ Vst50 , Δ Vst7 and Δ Vst11 also displayed defective penetration and melanin production like the Δ Sho1 strain. Defects in penetration and melanin production in Δ Sho1 were restored by overexpression of Vst50 , suggesting that Vst50 lies downstream of VdSho1 in the regulatory pathway governing penetration and melanin biosynthesis. Data analyses revealed that the transmembrane portion of VdSho1 was essential for both membrane penetration and melanin production. This study demonstrates that Vst50‐Vst11‐Vst7 module regulates VdSho1‐mediated plant penetration and melanin production in V . dahliae , contributing to virulence.
