Typhoon-Resistant Performance Assessment of Coastal Rural Residential Keel Brick Walls Reinforced with High Ductility Concrete - Qiang Li; Jun Zhang; Rui Wang; Jing Liu; Ping Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The keel brick wall belongs to the rural residential exterior wall unique to the southeast coastal region of China. The wooden keel inside the wall and the external tie members can improve the stability of the whole wall. However, due to the age of construction, the wooden keel inside the existing residential keel brick walls has basically rotted and lost the tie with the external members, which seriously reduces the stability of the whole wall. Moreover, the collapse of keel brick walls caused by typhoons has become more and more frequent in recent years, seriously endangering the lives and properties of residents. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out reinforcement and repair for the existing residential buildings with keel brick walls. In this paper, the keel brick walls of rural houses in Ningbo area were taken as the research object, a framework for evaluating the performance of keel brick walls against typhoons was established, tests on the lateral force resistance of keel brick walls reinforced with high ductility concrete and mortar were carried out. With the help of typhoon full-track simulation and wind field simulation technology, the 600-year near-surface typhoon wind speeds affecting Ningbo area were obtained. A joint probability distribution model of multi-directional extreme wind speed was constructed using t-Copula function to determine the mixed wind climate of Ningbo area. The extreme wind loads that keel brick walls can withstand under four types of reinforcement were finally given. The results show that the high ductility concrete reinforcement has great advantages over mortar reinforcement and avoids brittle damage of the masonry structure. The keel brick walls reinforced with single-sided mortar can withstand wind loads of a 3-year return period, the keel brick walls reinforced with single-sided high ductile concrete can withstand extreme wind loads of a 110-year return period, while the keel brick walls reinforced with double-sided mortar as well as double-sided high ductile concrete can withstand extreme wind loads of well over a 110-year return period.

Anchor Chain Optimization Design of a Catenary Anchor Leg Mooring System Based on Adaptive Sampling - Qiang Sun; Wenbo Li; Rundong Li; Dongsheng Peng; Qiang Guo; Yan Zhao; Qianjin Yue; Wanxie Zhong (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
A catenary anchor leg mooring system (CALM) is one of the main kinds of offshore transport terminals. Its buoyancy is connected by multiple anchor chains fixed on the seabed. Because a large deformation characterizes the anchor chain, it is prone to fatigue failure under dynamic loads in marine environments. These factors lead to many challenges in the design optimization of anchor chains. This study aims to develop a rapid optimization design framework for a mooring anchor chain with cost minimization as the design objective. In this framework, an approximation model of the mooring analysis is built based on an adaptive sampling method, and a combination of a genetic algorithm and a sequential quadratic programming method is utilized to optimize the established approximation model. The results show that the framework significantly reduces the computation time, and the error of the final optimization result obtained by adaptive sampling is significantly reduced. We found that using a quadratic or elliptic function as an adaptive function is good enough to obtain the optimization result.

RNA-Seq Analysis of the Key Long Noncoding RNAs and mRNAs Related to the Regulation of Hepatic Lipid Metabolism in Oreochromis niloticus - Yifan Tao; Siqi Lu; Tao Zheng; Mingxiao Li; Jun Qiang; Pao Xu (Fishes, 2022)
Genetically improved farmed tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus, GIFT) is prone to hepatic metabolic imbalances and fatty liver disease during intensive farming. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) perform essential roles in various biological processes, including lipid metabolism. However, the lncRNAs involved in hepatic lipid metabolism in tilapia have not yet been identified. In this study, Illumina sequencing and bioinformatic analyses were performed on the liver of juvenile male GIFT fed a high-fat diet (HFD, 18.5% lipid) or a normal-fat diet (NFD, 8% lipid) for 56 days. RNA-seq analyses revealed 299 differentially expressed (DE)-mRNAs and 284 DE-lncRNAs between these two groups. The transcript profiles of 14 candidates (seven DE-mRNA and seven DE-lncRNAs) were verified by qRT-PCR, and the results were consistent with the RNA-seq results. Furthermore, 65 cis target genes and 3610 trans target genes of DE-lncRNAs were predicted. Functional analyses suggested that multiple metabolic pathways are affected by a high fat intake, including the PPAR signaling, fatty acid degradation, and fatty acid metabolism pathways. A co-expression network analysis indicated that many lncRNAs interact with numerous genes involved in lipid metabolism, and that some genes are regulated by multiple lncRNAs. The expression patterns of three lncRNAs (MSTRG.14598.1, MSTRG.6725.3, and MSTRG.13364.2) and their potential target genes (faldh, slc25a48, and fabp7a) in the PPAR signaling pathway were investigated. Our study provides new information about lncRNAs associated with lipid metabolism in tilapia.

Neuropilin-2 Signaling Modulates Mossy Fiber Sprouting by Regulating Axon Collateral Formation Through CRMP2 in a Rat Model of Epilepsy - Yuxiang Li; Fangchao Tong; Yiying Zhang; Yiying Cai; Jing Ding; Qiang Wang; Xin Wang (Molecular Neurobiology, 2022)
Programmed neural circuit formation constitutes the foundation for normal brain functions. Axon guidance cues play crucial roles in neural circuit establishment during development. Whether or how they contribute to maintaining the stability of networks in mature brains is seldom studied. Upon injury, neural rewiring could happen in adulthood, of which mossy fiber sprouting (MFS) is a canonical example. Here, we uncovered a novel role of axon guidance molecule family Sema3F/Npn-2 signaling in MFS and epileptogenesis in a rat model of epilepsy. Dentate gyrus-specific Npn-2 knockdown increased seizure activity in epileptic animals along with increased MFS. Hippocampal culture results suggested that Npn-2 signaling modulates MFS via regulating axon outgrowth and collateral formation. In addition, we discovered that Sema3F/Npn-2 signal through CRMP2 by regulating its phosphorylation in the process of MFS. Our work illustrated that Npn-2 signaling in adult epilepsy animals could potentially modulate seizure activity by controlling MFS. MFS constitutes the structural basis for abnormal electric discharge of neurons and recurrent seizures. Therapies targeting Npn-2 signaling could potentially have disease-modifying anti-epileptogenesis effects in epilepsy treatment.

Increased microbial and substrate complexity result in higher molecular diversity of the dissolved organic matter pool - Qi Chen; Christian Lønborg; Feng Chen; Michael Gonsior; Yunyun Li; Ruanhong Cai; Chen He; Jiaxin Chen; Yu Wang; Quan Shi; Nianzhi Jiao; Qiang Zheng (Limnology and Oceanography, 2022)
Marine dissolved organic matter (DOM) represents one of the largest reduced carbon pools on Earth. Diverse microbial metabolic activities play important roles in shaping this pool. However, the links between changing DOM substrates and microbial communities and its influence on the microbial produced DOM remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated how the addition of substrates with different complexity (glucose, laminarin, and Synechococcus ‐derived DOM) impacted the production of new DOM by an individual opportunist Alteromonas strain and a coastal natural microbial community. Our experiments reveal that the microbial complexity was more important than the substrate in shaping the molecular composition of DOM. Furthermore, our results showed that the DOM composition played a larger role in shaping the microbial compositions than the concentrations of DOM and inorganic nutrients. Combined our network analysis revealed that complex substrates resulted in higher molecular diversity of the microbial produced DOM, sustained a higher microbial diversity, and maintained a more diverse association between microbial communities and DOM molecules. Overall, the present study indicate that the microbial diversity contributes to DOM molecular diversity and vice versa, highlighting the importance of microbial–substrate interactions in shaping the marine DOM pool.

Preservation of soil organic carbon in coastal wetlands promoted by glomalin–iron–organic carbon ternary system - Bo Zhao; Yunlong Jia; Shengjie Wu; Lili Wei; Jian Li; Hualong Hong; Chongling Yan; Mark A. Williams; Qiang Wang (Limnology and Oceanography, 2022)
Iron‐bound soil organic carbon (Fe‐bound SOC) and microbial residues are vital for SOC preservation, a process crucial for drawdown of anthropogenic carbon. However, the relative importance of Fe‐bound SOC in coastal wetlands, and its interaction with microbial residues remain poorly understood. Here, we used glomalin as a proxy for microbial residues, with the goal of determining microbial residues binding to Fe and Fe‐bound SOC across a 1000 km coastline of China including seven typical mangrove wetlands. As hypothesized, it was found that the glomalin fraction was strongly associated with and likely bound to Fe‐bound SOC complexes, which accounted for 21.4% ± 1.6% of mangrove SOC. Mean level of Fe‐bound glomalin was 1.2 ± 0.1 mg cm −3 , accounting for 40.6% ± 1.5% of total glomalin and 35.4% ± 3.2% of Fe‐bound SOC in the top 10 cm mangrove soil layer at regional scale. Due to the growing realization that Fe may be a crucial factor of glomalin cycling, we performed multiple chemical characterization techniques to identify the association between Fe and glomalin. Our results suggested that association to Fe was a main stabilization mechanism of glomalin in soils, and glomalin served as organic ligands in the formation of Fe‐bound SOC. We also found that the bulk glomalin extracts were a glomalin–Fe–OC ternary complex, which constituted an important proportion of mangrove SOC. These findings highlight the important effect of glomalin bound to Fe as a major mechanism of SOC persistence in coastal wetlands.

Development and characterization of monoclonal antibodies specific for cyprinid herpesvirus 2 - Lupin Zhao; Wa Gao; Yihua zheng; Liqun Lu; Qiang Li; Yousheng Jiang (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2022)
Infections of Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 in goldfish and farmed crucian carp ( Carassius auratus gibelio ) are still an urgent problem worldwide. Detection and prevention are necessary for the control of haematopoietic necrosis disease caused by CyHV‐2. Although many sensitive molecular diagnostic methods have been developed, effective immunodiagnosis and neutralization approaches based on monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) against CyHV‐2 are still important to CyHV‐2 study. In this experiment, purified CyHV‐2 was used as antigens to produce monoclonal antibodies (Mabs). Six Mabs bound to different proteins were selected by Dot‐blot screening and Western‐blot analysis, and no one had cross‐reactivity with closely related koi herpesvirus. Among them, Mabs 2E1‐B10, 1F5‐A3 and 4C4‐A7 belonged to IgG 1 isotype, while other three Mabs 3G9‐B11, 3B4‐G5 and 4F4‐B7 belonged to IgM isotype. These six Mabs all could specifically detect CyHV‐2 in CyHV‐2 infected caudal fin of Carassius auratus gibelio (GiCF) cells by immunofluorescence assays. Then, the neutralization ability was tested in vitro, and the result showed that all six Mabs can attenuate CPE by CyHV‐2 in vitro among which 2E1‐B10 had the best neutralization ability. The virus proteins recognized by these six Mabs were identified by mass spectrometry identification, and the result showed they probably were ORF88, ORF55R, ORF115 and ORF151R. This study is the first to prepare Mabs by purifying CyHV‐2, which will provide a practical basis for the in‐depth study of CyHV‐2 virus.

STM: Spectrogram Transformer Model for Underwater Acoustic Target Recognition - Peng Li; Ji Wu; Yongxian Wang; Qiang Lan; Wenbin Xiao (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
With the evolution of machine learning and deep learning, more and more researchers have utilized these methods in the field of underwater acoustic target recognition. In these studies, convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are the main components of recognition models. In recent years, a neural network model Transformer that uses a self-attention mechanism was proposed and achieved good performance in deep learning. In this paper, we propose a Transformer-based underwater acoustic target recognition model STM. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work to introduce Transformer into the underwater acoustic field. We compared the performance of STM with CNN, ResNet18, and other multi-class algorithm models. Experimental results illustrate that under two commonly used dataset partitioning methods, STM achieves 97.7% and 89.9% recognition accuracy, respectively, which are 13.7% and 50% higher than the CNN Model. STM also outperforms the state-of-the-art model CRNN-9 by 3.1% and ResNet18 by 1.8%.

How is the El Niño–Southern Oscillation signal recorded by tree‐ring oxygen isotopes in southeastern China? - Congxi Fang; Yu Liu; Qiang Li; Huiming Song; Qiufang Cai; Changfeng Sun (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Previous studies universally found that tree‐ring oxygen isotope (δ 18 O TR ) in southeastern China (SEC) significantly recorded the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) signal. However, the correlation between the climate in SEC and ENSO is insignificant, so the local climatic response of SEC δ 18 O TR fails to explain the significant positive correlations between these δ 18 O TR records and ENSO. In this study, based on four δ 18 O TR series from SEC, meteorological data, simulated precipitation oxygen isotope (δ 18 O P ) data, and a moisture uptake atlas deduced from Lagrangian backward trajectory experiments, a conceptual model was established to explain how the ENSO signal is recorded by SEC δ 18 O TR . During the El Niño decaying years, the Northwest Pacific (NWP) convective activity weakens; the convective weakening areas coincide with the main moisture sources for SEC, which enriches 18 O in moisture that is transported to SEC, resulting in positive anomalies of δ 18 O P in SEC; finally, the ENSO‐modulated δ 18 O P signal is inherited by SEC δ 18 O TR . The opposite situations occur in the La Niña events. It was also indicated that the change in the moisture contribution percentage from different sources may not be a primary factor that connects SEC δ 18 O TR with ENSO. These findings contribute to understanding climatic signals represented by δ 18 O TR and δ 18 O P in the East Asian monsoon region.

Storage, patterns and influencing factors for soil organic carbon in coastal wetlands of China - Shaopan Xia; Zhaoliang Song; Lukas Van Zwieten; Laodong Guo; Changxun Yu; Weiqi Wang; Qiang Li; Iain P. Hartley; Yuanhe Yang; Hongyan Liu; Yidong Wang; Xiangbin Ran; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Soil organic carbon (SOC) in coastal wetlands, also known as “blue C,” is an essential component of the global C cycles. To gain a detailed insight into blue C storage and controlling factors, we studied 142 sites across ca. 5000 km of coastal wetlands, covering temperate, subtropical, and tropical climates in China. The wetlands represented six vegetation types ( Phragmites australis , mixed of P. australis and Suaeda , single Suaeda , Spartina alterniflora , mangrove [ Kandelia obovata and Avicennia marina ], tidal flat) and three vegetation types invaded by S. alterniflora ( P. australis , K. obovata , A. marina ). Our results revealed large spatial heterogeneity in SOC density of the top 1‐m ranging 40–200 Mg C ha −1 , with higher values in mid‐latitude regions (25–30° N) compared with those in both low‐ (20°N) and high‐latitude (38–40°N) regions. Vegetation type influenced SOC density, with P. australis and S. alterniflora having the largest SOC density, followed by mangrove, mixed P. australis and Suaeda , single Suaeda and tidal flat. SOC density increased by 6.25 Mg ha −1 following S. alterniflora invasion into P. australis community but decreased by 28.56 and 8.17 Mg ha −1 following invasion into K. obovata and A. marina communities. Based on field measurements and published literature, we calculated a total inventory of 57 × 10 6 Mg C in the top 1‐m soil across China's coastal wetlands. Edaphic variables controlled SOC content, with soil chemical properties explaining the largest variance in SOC content. Climate did not control SOC content but had a strong interactive effect with edaphic variables. Plant biomass and quality traits were a minor contributor in regulating SOC content, highlighting the importance of quantity and quality of OC inputs and the balance between production and degradation within the coastal wetlands. These findings provide new insights into blue C stabilization mechanisms and sequestration capacity in coastal wetlands.

Benchmarking the Quality of Chinese to English Geotourism Interpretation: the SSC Model Based on Eco-translatology - Qiang Jason Li; Fangzhou Noah Zhu; Young Ng (Geoheritage, 2022)
The global growth of geotourism has increased the demand and quality for geotourism interpretation. However, in its pioneer stage, geotourism interpretation has much ineffective interpretation, which hinders the informative purpose of geotourism. Moreover, geotourism interpretation lacks a systematic quality evaluation model. Such a model is essential to the future of reliable interpretation and the minimising of ineffective interpretation. This paper exams whether the currently proposed SSC model (Semantic, Style and Cultural Equivalence) for translation benchmarking purposes can effectively ensure the quality of geotourism interpretation. The SSC model is built on the three geotourism categories (ABC-Abiotic, Biotic and Culture), the unique principles of geotourism interpretation (which are determined by its objectives) and the theory of Eco-translatology. To enhance corpus research, the digital auxiliary tools, Tmxmall (2014) and Sketch Engine (2003), were used. The detailed SSC model was shaped through corpus-based contrastive analysis. The model contains a total of eight criteria that the interpreter should follow, including four for semantic equivalence: linguistic accuracy, scientific accuracy of terminology, reader acceptability of terminology, and semantic completeness of geo-information; and three for style equivalence: logical syntax, concise syntax and appropriate voice syntax. The final criterion is an accurate connotation in cultural elements. The main research findings were that the SSC model can minimise ineffective interpretation of Chinese to English geodata and guarantee accurate transmission of data for geotourism in Chinese UNESCO Global Geoparks.

Negative air ion exposure ameliorates depression-like behaviors induced by chronic mild stress in mice - Yun-Qing Hu; Ting-Ting Niu; Jian-ming Xu; Li Peng; Qing-Hua Sun; Ying Huang; Ji Zhou; Yu-Qiang Ding (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022)
The presence of negative air ions (NAI) is suggested to be a beneficial factor in improving psychological status and used in treating depression as an alternative approach. However, more biological evidence from animal models is needed to ensure the effects of NAI on the mood regulation, through which can facilitate identification of possible underlying mechanisms. In this study, the chronic mild stress (CMS) protocol was used to induce depressive-like behaviors in mice, and the effects of NAI exposure on CMS-induced depression-like behaviors were examined. Thirty-day NAI exposure prevented the CMS-induced depression-like behaviors as shown by the restoration of sucrose preference and reduced immobility time in the tail suspension test. In addition, the elevation of serous corticosterone was present in CMS-treated mice but not existed in those with the NAI exposure. Furthermore, we observed altered ratios of some cytokines secreted by type 1 T helper (Th1) cells and Th2 cells in CMS-treated mice, but it could be restored after NAI exposure. In conclusion, NAI intervention is able to ameliorate CMS-induced depression-like behaviors in mice, and this effect is associated with the alteration of corticosterone and functional rebalance between Th1 and Th2 cells.

Novel SNPs in the 3′UTR Region of GHRb Gene Associated with Growth Traits in Striped Catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus), a Valuable Aquaculture Species - Liang-Sen Jiang; Zhuo-Hao Ruan; Zhi-Qiang Lu; Yi-Fu Li; Yuan-Yuan Luo; Xi-Quan Zhang; Wen-Sheng Liu (Fishes, 2022)
The striped catfish, Pangasianodon hypophthalmus is an important freshwater aquaculture species in Southeast Asian countries due to its rapid growth. The growth hormone receptor (GHR) is a significant regulatory factor for the growth axis and has great potential applications in animal genetic breeding. This study aims to characterize the GHRb cDNA of the striped catfish and analyze the distribution of its mRNA. Screening of single nucleotide polymorphisms’ (SNPs) loci and diplotypes was performed to provide basic information for the assisted selection of molecular markers in genetic breeding. The results showed that the GHRb cDNA of striped catfish had 2791 bp, which encoded for 569 amino acids. In a phylogenyic study, the ghrb of the striped catfish was clustered with those of other catfish and they were highly homologous. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) experiments showed that GHRb mRNA was expressed in ten different organs of the striped catfish, with the highest expression level in the liver. Five SNP and a haplotype block were identified in the 3′UTR of the GHRb gene using the direct sequencing of 307 individuals. Three haplotypes were found and four diplotypes were constructed. The association analysis revealed that these polymorphisms were significantly associated with growth traits in the striped catfish (p

Tree‐ring oxygen isotope recorded precipitation variations over the past two centuries in the northeast Chinese Loess Plateau - Lu Wang; Yu Liu; Qiang Li; Huiming Song; Qiufang Cai (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
It was shown in previous studies that tree‐ring oxygen isotope (δ 18 O TR ) was a proxy of regional precipitation. Using two δ 18 O TR chronologies of Pinus tabulaeformis Carr. in northeast Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP), we synthesized a master series which had a high correlation with regional precipitation from previous‐year September to current‐year August ( P SA ) ( r = −0.650, N = 52, p P SA over the past two centuries (AD 1808–2009) for the northeast CLP. The results of calibration–verification tests indicated that the precipitation reconstruction was stable and reliable. Compared with reconstructions based on the tree‐ring width and historical documents, the P SA reconstruction reserved more decadal low‐frequency climate signals such as the drying trend since the 1930s. Superposed epoch analysis (SEA) showed that the large tropical volcanic eruptions significantly reduced P SA in the first year after the eruptions. The contrast of the regional precipitation reconstructions in the west, northeast, and southeast CLP demonstrated that spatial and temporal differences of precipitation variation. In terms of extreme climate events, major droughts in the mid‐to‐late 1920s were recorded in all three regional precipitation records, while the Ding‐Wu Disaster (AD 1876–1878) was only found in the southeast CLP. Under the background of the weakening Asian monsoon and global warming, CLP was more prone to droughts in the last five decades.

Potential millennial‐scale avian declines by humans in southern China - Feng Dong; Qiang Zhang; Yi‐Lin Chen; Fu‐Min Lei; Shou‐Hsien Li; Fei Wu; Xiao‐Jun Yang (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Mounting observational records demonstrate human‐caused faunal decline in recent decades, while accumulating archaeological evidence suggests an early biodiversity impact of human activities during the Holocene. A fundamental question arises concerning whether modern wildlife population declines began during early human disturbance. Here, we performed a population genomic analysis of six common forest birds in East Asia to address this question. For five of them, demographic history inference based on 25–33 genomes of each species revealed dramatic population declines by 4‐ to 48‐fold over millennia (e.g. 2000–5000 thousand years ago). Nevertheless, summary statistics detected nonsignificant correlations between these population size trajectories and Holocene temperature variations, and ecological niche models explicitly predicted extensive range persistence during the Holocene, implying limited demographic consequence of Holocene climate change. Further analyses suggest high negative correlations between the reconstructed population declines and human disturbance intensities and indicate a potential driver of human activities. These findings provide a deep‐time and large‐scale insight into the recently recognized avifaunal decline and support an early origin hypothesis of human effects on biodiversity. Overall, our study sheds light on the current biodiversity crisis in the context of long‐term human–environment interactions and offers a multi‐evidential framework for quantitatively assessing the ecological consequences of human disturbance.

Microbial phylogenetic relatedness links to distinct successional patterns of bacterial and fungal communities - Qiang Lin; Francisco Dini‐Andreote; Travis B. Meador; Roey Angel; Lenka Meszárošová; Petr Heděnec; Lingjuan Li; Petr Baldrian; Jan Frouz (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary The mechanisms underlying microbial community dynamics and co‐occurrence patterns along ecological succession are crucial for understanding ecosystem recovery but remain largely unexplored. Here, we investigated community dynamics and taxa co‐occurrence patterns in bacterial and fungal communities across a well‐established chronosequence of post‐mining lands spanning 54 years of recovery. Bacterial community structures became increasingly phylogenetically clustered with soil age at early successional stages and varied less at later successional stages. The dynamics of bacterial community phylogenetic structures were determined by the changes in the soil vegetation cover along succession. The dynamics of fungal community phylogenetic structures did not significantly correlate with soil age, soil properties or vegetation cover, and were mainly attributed to stochastic processes. Along succession, the common decrease in the bacterial co‐occurrence complexity and in the average pairwise phylogenetic distances between co‐occurring bacteria implied a decrease in potential bacterial cooperation. The increased complexity of fungal co‐occurrence along succession was independent of phylogenetic relatedness between co‐occurring fungi. This study provides new sights into ecological mechanisms underlying bacterial and fungal community succession.

Schizophrenia which is an abnormally developmental disease has been widely reported to show abnormal brain structure and function. Enhanced functional integration is a predominant neural marker for brain mature. Abnormal development of structure and functional integration may be a biomarker for early diagnosis of schizophrenia. Fifty-five patients with early onset schizophrenia (EOS) and 79 healthy controls were enrolled in this study. Voxel-based morphometry (VBM) and functional connectivity density (FCD) were performed to explore gray matter volume (GMV) lesion, abnormal functional integration, and concurrent structural and functional abnormalities in the brain. Furthermore, the relationships between abnormalities structural and function and clinical characteristics were evaluated in EOS. Compared with healthy controls, EOS showed significantly decreased GMV in the bilateral OFC, frontal, temporal, occipital, parietal and limbic system. EOS also showed decreased FCD in precuneus and increased FCD in cerebellum. Moreover, we found concurrent changes of structure and function in left lateral orbitofrontal cortex (lOFC). Finally, correlation analyses did not find significant correlation between abnormal neural measurements and clinical characteristic in EOS. The results reveal disassociated and bound structural and functional abnormalities patterns in EOS suggesting structural and functional measurements play different roles in delineating the abnormal patterns of EOS. The concurrent structural and functional changes in lOFC may be a biomarker for early diagnosis of schizophrenia. Our findings will deepen our understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms in EOS.

Effect of Siberian Ginseng Water Extract as a Dietary Additive on Growth Performance, Blood Biochemical Indexes, Lipid Metabolism, and Expression of PPARs Pathway-Related Genes in Genetically Improved Farmed Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) - Mingxiao Li; Jun Qiang; Xiaowen Zhu; Jingwen Bao; Yifan Tao; Haojun Zhu (Fishes, 2022)
Overnutrition in high-density aquaculture can negatively affect the health of farmed fish. The Chinese herbal medicine Siberian ginseng (Acanthopanax senticosus, AS) can promote animal growth and immunity, and regulate lipid metabolism. Therefore, we conducted an 8-week experiment, in which Oreochromis niloticus was fed with a diet supplemented with different concentrations of AS water extract (ASW) (0‰, 0.1‰, 0.2‰, 0.4‰, 0.8‰, and 1.6‰). The ASW improved the growth performance and increased the specific growth rate (SGR). Linear regression analysis based on the SGR estimated that the optimal ASW amount was 0.74‰. Dietary supplementation with 0.4–0.8‰ ASW reduced the triglyceride and total cholesterol levels in the serum and liver, and regulated lipid transport by increasing the high-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration and lowering the low-density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration. Dietary supplementation with ASW increased the activities of superoxide dismutase and catalase in the liver, thereby improving the antioxidant capacity. Moreover, ASW modulated the transcription of genes in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor signaling pathway in the liver (upregulation of PPARα, APOA1b, and FABP10a and downregulation of PPARγ), thereby regulating fatty acid synthesis and metabolism and slowing fat deposition. These results showed that 0.4–0.8‰ ASW can slow fat deposition and protected the liver from cell damage and abnormal lipid metabolism.

Temporal Variation of Summer Hypoxia off Changjiang Estuary During 1997–2014 and Its Association With ENSO - Xiao Ma; Anqi Liu; Qiang Zhao; Bin Wang; Di Tian; Qicheng Meng; Dingyong Zeng; Jia Li; Daji Huang; Feng Zhou (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Temporal variation of summer hypoxia, along a repeated hydrographic section from the Changjiang River mouth to Cheju Island, is investigated using cruise data during 1997–2014. The climatological mean of dissolved oxygen (DO) presents a “dual-core structure” below the oxycline, associated with two hypoxic centers near the river mouth and offshore of the Changjiang Bank, respectively. The DO value is highly variable from year to year, with dramatic interannual variation but an insignificant linear trend during 1997–2014. Composite analysis indicates that the interannual variation of DO and associated hypoxia events are strongly affected by the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle. In the El Niño decaying summer, large river discharge and relatively strong stratification, combined with calm climatic and hydrographic conditions, enhance DO depletion off the Changjiang Estuary. It is likely that El Niño is not a prerequisite for hypoxia occurrences. However, El Niño did enhance bottom hypoxia probability off the Changjiang Estuary during 1997–2014.

The long non-coding RNA LIMT inhibits metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma and is suppressed by EGF signaling - Yu Hu; Hao Li; Hongwei Zhang; Qiang Tang; Guangtan Zhang; Xiqing Li; Fei Xue (Molecular Biology Reports, 2022)
Background The long non-coding RNA LIMT (lncRNA inhibiting metastasis) acts as a tumor suppressor factor in some cancers. However, the biological role of LIMT in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has not been explored. Methods and Results Quantitative real-time PCR was performed to evaluate the expression of LIMT in HCC tissue. The effects of LIMT on tumor growth and metastasis were assessed by in vitro experiments, including colony formation and transwell assays, and in vivo in nude mouse models. Western blot analysis was used to evaluate the expression levels of proteins associated with epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). LIMT expression was significantly lower in HCC than in normal liver tissue. Functionally, overexpression of LIMT repressed the proliferation, invasion, and EMT of HCC cells, while LIMT knockdown increased proliferation, invasion, and EMT of HCC cells in vitro . Furthermore, LIMT overexpression suppressed HCC growth and metastasis while silencing of LIMT had an opposite effect in vivo . Finally, LIMT overexpression reversed EGF-induced EMT. Conclusions Our results suggest that LIMT could play an anti-cancer effect in HCC and might be a potential novel therapeutic target in HCC.

lncRNA BDNF-AS Attenuates Propofol-Induced Apoptosis in HT22 Cells by Modulating the BDNF/TrkB Pathway - Yu-Hai Xu; Yuan Luo; Jiang-Bei Cao; Yan-Hong Liu; Yu-Xiang Song; Xiao-Ying Zhang; Qiang Fu; Wei-Dong Mi; Hao Li (Molecular Neurobiology, 2022)
Propofol is widely used as an intravenous anesthetic in clinical practice. Previous studies have indicated that propofol induces apoptosis in neurons. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), a neurotrophic factor, is associated with neuronal apoptosis. BDNF-AS, a relatively conserved long non-coding RNA, can reverse the transcription of BDNF. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of BDNF-AS in propofol-induced apoptosis in HT22 cells. HT22 cells were treated with various concentrations of propofol at different time points. BDNF-AS was silenced using BDNF-AS-targeting siRNA. TrkB was antagonized by the TrkB inhibitor, ANA-12. Flow cytometry, quantitative reverse-transcription PCR, and western blotting were performed to analyze apoptosis and the expression of genes and proteins, respectively. In propofol-treated HT22 cells, BDNF-AS was upregulated, and BDNF was downregulated in a time- and dose-dependent manner. BDNF-AS downregulation mediated by siRNA mitigated apoptosis, upregulated the expression of Bcl-2, and downregulated the expression of Bax and caspase-3, 7, and 9. ANA-12 downregulated the expression of Bcl-2, upregulated the expression of Bax and caspase-3, 7, and 9, and increased apoptosis. Our study implied that inhibition of BDNF-AS can decrease propofol-induced apoptosis by activating the BDNF/TrkB pathway. Thus, the BDNF-AS-BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway may be a valuable target for treating propofol-induced neurotoxicity.

Quantifying urban mass gain and loss by a GIS‐based material stocks and flows analysis - Yupeng Liu; Jiajia Li; Wei‐Qiang Chen; Lulu Song; Shaoqing Dai (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2022)
Rapid urbanization generates substantial demand, use, and demolition waste of construction materials. However, the existing top‐down or bottom‐up frameworks combining material flow analysis (MFA) and geographic information system (GIS) tend to underestimate both input and output of construction material flows due to insufficient descriptions of key processes in building construction and demolition. To address this limitation, this study identifies four important and complementary processes—construction, demolition, replacement, and maintenance, and integrates them into an improved framework to capture all material flows. We take Xiamen, a rapidly urbanizing city, as a case study to verify this framework. The results show that ∼40% of material inputs and ∼65% of outputs are underestimated by previous frameworks because they fail to capture material inputs in building maintenance and outputs in construction. These findings indicate a better estimation of such key flows in the modeling framework helps to accurately characterize building material metabolism. Based on systematic counting of material stocks and flows, the improved framework can help design effective policies for urban resource management by explicitly recognizing the spatiotemporal patterns and processes of material metabolism.

Comparative Analysis on the Evolution of Seepage Parameters in Methane Hydrate Production under Depressurization of Clayey Silt Reservoir and Sandy Reservoir - Yaobin Li; Xin Xin; Tianfu Xu; Huixing Zhu; Haibin Wang; Qiang Chen; Bo Yang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Gas hydrates are likely to become an important strategic resource with commercial development prospects. It is therefore of great significance to realize the long-term and efficient production of methane hydrate reservoirs. Previous studies have shown that the lithological characteristics of hydrate reservoirs have a significant impact on reservoir productivity by influencing the evolution of seepage parameters in the process of hydrate production. The porosity (Φ) and initial hydrate saturation (SH) affect the amount of hydrate decomposition and pressure transfer, and also indirectly affect the reservoir temperature field. The permeability (k) directly affects the rate of pressure-drop transmission and methane gas discharge. Due to the differences in seepage parameters caused by different reservoir lithology, a sandy hydrate reservoir (SHR) in Japan and a clayey silt hydrate reservoir (CHR) in China were found to have different gas production rates and the spatial evolution characteristics of the temperature and pressure fields varied in gas hydrate production tests. Therefore, to ensure the long-term and efficient production of the CHR in China, two models were established for a comparative analysis based on a numerical simulation. The two models were depressurizing models of the CHR of the W11 drilling site in the Shenhu Sea area of the South China Sea and the SHR of the AT1 drilling site in the Eastern Nankai Trough of Japan. Both models considered the heterogeneity of seepage parameters, and the TOUGH+HYDARATE (T+H) code was used in subsequent calculations. Four key results were obtained: (a) The order of the significance levels of the lithological parameters on productivity was k > SH > Φ in the CHR and SH > k > Φ in the SHR. (b) The heat conduction and heat convection in the CHR were weaker than in the SHR, which made it difficult to recover the low-temperature area caused by hydrate decomposition. (c) The exploitation of a high k hydrate reservoir should be given priority when the other initial conditions were the same in both the CHR and SHR. (d) The exploitation of both the CHR and SHR should not only rely on the hydrate content or seepage capacity to determine the reservoir exploitation potential, but the combined effect of the two parameters should be fully considered.

Research Progress on Global Marine Gas Hydrate Resistivity Logging and Electrical Property Experiments - Qiang Chen; Nengyou Wu; Changling Liu; Changchun Zou; Yang Liu; Jianye Sun; Yanlong Li; Gaowei Hu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Natural gas hydrate is widely spread in marine environments around the world. It has great energy potential due to its high methane gas content. High-precision exploration and evaluation of marine gas hydrate still face great challenges as it is affected by the complex reservoir control mechanisms and distribution characteristics. Resistivity is widely used in geophysical logging and theoretical research on gas hydrate-bearing reservoirs by utilizing the high sensitivity electrical response. In this paper, based on the examination of the global marine gas hydrate occurrences, resistivity logging results are summarized. Then the key remaining gas hydrate resistivity experimental concerns are reviewed. In summary, resistivity properties are a reliable means to derive the gas hydrate reservoir characteristics, despite the effect induced by the anisotropic properties of hydrate reservoirs and drilling technology. The overall resistivity change associated with the occurrence of pore filling gas hydrate in reservoirs are relatively small, and the specific value is affected by sediment lithology and hydrate saturation. On the other hand, fracture filling hydrate reservoirs have strong anisotropy, and massive hydrate occurrences (i.e., layers of gas hydrate with no sediment) section shows very high resistivity variation. Clay minerals are an important factor restricting the accurate estimation of gas hydrate saturations from in situ resistivity measurements. Many experimental studies have proposed the correction of Archie empirical formula, but widely representative models have not yet been developed. It is worth noting that more complex resistivity measurements may be able to provide additional electrical response information on various gas hydrate systems.

Diurnal variations of rainfall affected by complex topography based on high-density observation in Chongqing over southwest China - Qiang Li; Yongguang Zheng; Guobing Zhou; Yan Zhu; Chao Liu; Yan Liu (Theoretical and Applied Climatology, 2022)
Located in the eastern edge of the Sichuan Basin (SCB) in the southwest China, Chongqing is a mountainous region with typical complex topographic features. Using the hourly rainfall observation data of high-density 1686 meteorological stations in Chongqing during warm season from 2009 to 2016, we investigated the diurnal characteristics of precipitation affected by complex topography. The complex mountainous terrain has a significant impact on diurnal variations and distinct regional features of rainfall amount, frequency, and intensity. The stations located in the higher complex mountainous areas have greater rainfall amount, frequency, and intensity than those in the lower surrounding areas. In addition, the detailed characteristics of the rainfall amount and frequency in the four study regions further show that the rainfall amount and frequency significantly increase with the rise of elevation, especially in the area that terrain height sharply increases along the mountain extending direction. The diurnal variation of the rainfall amount is characterized by a bimodal structure with a dominant early-morning peak occurring at approximately 0700 LST (23 UTC) and a weaker secondary late-afternoon peak at approximately 1600 LST (08 UTC), while the rainfall frequency has a single early-morning peak. The terrain height has a significant impact on the proportions of the early-morning rainfall. With the elevation increasing in the four study regions, the proportions of rainfall amount (frequency) that occurs during early-morning period decrease.

Phenotypic plasticity of light use favors a plant invader in nitrogen‐enriched ecosystems - Xiao Xu; Chenhao Zhou; Qiang He; Shiyun Qiu; Yan Zhang; Ji Yang; Bo Li; Ming Nie (Ecology, 2022)
Eutrophication is believed to promote plant invasion, resulting in high growth performances of invasive plants and, therefore, the great potential for growth‐induced intraspecific competition for light. Current hypotheses predict how eutrophication promotes plant invasion but fail to explain how great invasiveness is maintained under eutrophic conditions. In diverse native communities, co‐occurring plants of varying sizes can avoid light competition by exploiting light complementarily; however, whether this mechanism applies to intraspecific competition in invasive plant populations remains unknown. Using a 2‐year field nitrogen (N)‐enrichment experiment on one of the global invasive plants, Spartina alterniflora , we found that the plasticity of light use reduced intraspecific competition and increased biomass production in S. alterniflora . This plasticity effect was enhanced when S. alterniflora had no nutrient limitations. In the N‐enrichment treatments, the height difference among S. alterniflora ramets increased as light intensity decreased under the canopy. Compared with ambient N, under N enrichment, shorter individuals increased their light‐use efficiency and specific leaf area in response to the reduced light intensity under the canopy. However, such ecophysiological plasticity was not found for taller individuals. Our findings revealed that the light‐use plasticity of short individuals can be envisaged as a novel mechanism by which an invasive plant alleviates intraspecific competition and increases its invasiveness, challenging the prevailing perspective that the invasiveness of exotic plants is constrained by intraspecific competition.

(Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2022)
Key message We developed the ZDX1 high-throughput functional soybean array for high accuracy evaluation and selection of both parents and progeny, which can greatly accelerate soybean breeding. Abstract Microarray technology facilitates rapid, accurate, and economical genotyping. Here, using resequencing data from 2214 representative soybean accessions, we developed the high-throughput functional array ZDX1, containing 158,959 SNPs, covering 90.92% of soybean genes and sites related to important traits. By application of the array, a total of 817 accessions were genotyped, including three subpopulations of candidate parental lines, parental lines and their progeny from practical breeding. The fixed SNPs were identified in progeny, indicating artificial selection during the breeding process. By identifying functional sites of target traits, novel soybean cyst nematode-resistant progeny and maturity-related novel sources were identified by allele combinations, demonstrating that functional sites provide an efficient method for the rapid screening of desirable traits or gene sources. Notably, we found that the breeding index (BI) was a good indicator for progeny selection. Superior progeny were derived from the combination of distantly related parents, with at least one parent having a higher BI. Furthermore, new combinations based on good performance were proposed for further breeding after excluding redundant and closely related parents. Genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) analysis was the best analysis method and achieved the highest accuracy in predicting four traits when comparing SNPs in genic regions rather than whole genomic or intergenic SNPs. The prediction accuracy was improved by 32.1% by using progeny to expand the training population. Collectively, a versatile assay demonstrated that the functional ZDX1 array provided efficient information for the design and optimization of a breeding pipeline for accelerated soybean breeding.

Exosome-Derived lncRNA NEAT1 Exacerbates Sepsis-Associated Encephalopathy by Promoting Ferroptosis Through Regulating miR-9-5p/TFRC and GOT1 Axis - Xue-biao Wei; Wen-qiang Jiang; Ju-hao Zeng; Lin-qiang Huang; Hong-guang Ding; Yuan-wen Jing; Yong-li Han; Yi-chen Li; Sheng-long Chen (Molecular Neurobiology, 2022)
Sepsis can cause sepsis-associated encephalopathy (SAE), but whether SAE was induced or exacerbated by ferroptosis remains unknown. In this study, the rat sepsis model was constructed using the cecal ligation and puncture method. The blood–brain barrier (BBB) permeability was measured by Evans blue dye (EBD) in vivo. The levels of ROS, Fe ion, MDA, GSH, and GPX4 were assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The exosomes isolated from serum were cultured with bEnd.3 cells for the in vitro analysis. Moreover, bEnd.3 cells cultured with 100 μM FeCl3 (iron-rich) were to simulate ferroptosis stress. The cell viability was evaluated by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) assay. A dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to confirm the relationship between miR-9-5p with NEAT1, TFRC , and GOT1 . In vivo, it is found that BBB permeability was damaged in model rats. Level of ROS, Fe ion, and MDA was increased, and level of GSH and GPX4 was decreased, which means ferroptosis was induced by sepsis. Exosome-packaged NEAT1 in serum was significantly upregulated in model rats. In vitro, it is found that NEAT1 functions as a ceRNA for miR-9-5p to facilitate TFRC and GOT1 expression. Overexpression of NEAT1 enhanced ferroptosis stress in bEnd.3 cells. Increased miR-9-5p alleviated sepsis-induced ferroptosis by suppressing the expression of TFRC and GOT1 both in vivo and in vitro. In conclusion, these findings suggest that sepsis induced high expression of serous exosome-derived NEAT1, and it might exacerbate SAE by promoting ferroptosis through regulating miR-9-5p/ TFRC and GOT1 axis.
