Environmental quality mediates the ecological dominance of cooperatively breeding birds - Yu‐Heng Lin; Ying‐Yu Chen; Dustin R. Rubenstein; Ming Liu; Mark Liu; Sheng‐Feng Shen (Ecology Letters, 2023)
Although social species as diverse as humans and ants are among the most abundant organisms on Earth, animals cooperate and form groups for many reasons. How these different reasons for grouping affect a species' ecological dominance remains unknown. Here we use a theoretical model to demonstrate that the different fitness benefits that animals receive by forming groups depend on the quality of their environment, which in turn impacts their ecological dominance and resilience to global change. We then test the model's key predictions using phylogenetic comparative analysis of >6500 bird species. As predicted, we find that cooperative breeders occurring in harsh and fluctuating environments have larger ranges and greater abundances than non‐cooperative breeders, but cooperative breeders occurring in benign and stable environments do not. Using our model, we further show that social species living in harsh and fluctuating environments will be less vulnerable to climate change than non‐social species.

Effects of the Carbon Intensity Index Rating System on the Development of the Northeast Passage - Yuh-Ming Tsai; Cherng-Yuan Lin (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
For many years, the Suez Canal (also known as the Suez Route) has been the main route connecting Europe and Asia. However, compared with the Suez Route, the Northeast Passage could save up to 41% of the journey. The ship carbon intensity index (CII) rating system of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) came into effect in 2023. This study took an existing bulk carrier on the Europe–Asia route as an example to calculate the attained CII values at different sailing speeds. It was found that, regardless of external factors, when the ship speed dropped from 14.4 knots (85% maximum continuous rating (MCR)) to 12.6 knots (55% MCR), the corresponding attained CII value decreased from 6.48 g/ton·nm to 5.19 g/ton·nm. Therefore, sailing speed was the key factor influencing the attained CII value, and it was independent of the shipping distance. In addition, when the ship’s sailing output power was between 85% MCR and 75% MCR, for every 5% decrease in MCR, its attained CII value would decrease by 0.13 g/ton·nm, and the fuel consumption amount would decrease by 1 ton/day. However, when the ship sailed at an output power of 75% MCR to 55% MCR, for every 5% decrease in MCR, the attained CII value would decrease even more, up to 0.26 g/ton·nm. In addition, the attained CII value would be reduced by up to 100% and fuel consumption amount would be reduced by up to 1.5 ton/day, resulting in a 50% fuel saving effect. Therefore, to obtain a better CII rating, the optimal ship speed should be set between 75% MCR and 55% MCR according to the wave and wind strengths. However, although slow-speed sailing is the most efficient factor, the number of sailing days would also be extended. Through the ratio created by dividing the distance of the Northeast Passage by the Suez Route, whether the Northeast Passage has the benefit of balancing shipping schedules could be judged. The outcome indicated that a ratio lower than 1 would result in a more balanced shipping schedule. Compared with 2019, the number of ships sailing through the Northeast Passage in 2021 increased significantly by 132%, and the average dead weight tonnage of the ships also rose from 18,846 tons to 23,736 tons. This study found that, with the implementation of the carbon reduction policy of the CII rating, ships sailing through the Northeast Passage could continue to develop toward the trend of large-sized vessels and steady increase in ship number.

A historical overview of water quality in the coastal seas of China - Ming Xin; Xia Sun; Lin-Ping Xie; Bao-Dong Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Using historical data, long-term variations in pollutant sources and water quality in China’s coastal waters over the last three decades are reviewed. The results show that the total area of non-clean water, which reflects state of total water quality, increased rapidly before 2000, but then underwent two stages of decline, with a modest decline by one-quarter between 2001 and 2015, followed by a sharp decline of more than half of that in 2015 since then. Consequently, water quality at present is better than it was at the beginning of the 1990s. The total area of polluted water fluctuated without any trend from the end of the 1990s until 2015, but has declined sharply by nearly two-thirds since 2015, indicating that the water quality in China’s coastal seas has improved substantially. Geographically, the Bohai Sea was the first to see a turning point in water quality, followed by the Yellow Sea and East China Sea, while the South China Sea was the last. The main pollutants that govern the water quality grade and area are dissolved inorganic nitrogen and phosphate as well as petroleum hydrocarbons. As a response to variations in water quality, changes in both the frequency and total area affected by harmful algal blooms were similar to those of water quality over the last three decades, albeit with a slight lag. Analysis showed that variations in water quality were closely related to the land- and sea-sourced pollutant inputs. The combination of shift in the mode of economic growth from high-speed growth to high-quality development and the enforcement of the new, strictest ever Environmental Protection Law resulted in a significant decline of pollutant emissions, inducing a turning point in the water quality in the coastal seas of China in the mid-2010s.

Genomic architecture underlying morphological and physiological adaptation to high elevation in a songbird - Chia‐Wei Lu; Shih‐Ting Huang; Shun‐Jen Cheng; Chen‐Tau Lin; Yu‐Cheng Hsu; Cheng‐Te Yao; Feng Dong; Chih‐Ming Hung; Hao‐Chih Kuo (Molecular Ecology, 2023)
Organisms often acquire physiological and morphological modifications to conquer ecological challenges when colonizing new environments which lead to their adaptive evolution. However, deciphering the genomic mechanism of ecological adaptation is difficult because ecological environments are often too complex for straightforward interpretation. Thus, we examined the adaptation of a widespread songbird—the rufous‐capped babbler ( Cyanoderma ruficeps )—to a relatively simple system: distinct environments across elevational gradients on the mountainous island of Taiwan. We focused on the genomic sequences of 43 birds from five populations to show that the Taiwan group split from its sister group in mainland China around 1–2 million years ago (Ma) and colonized the montane habitats of Taiwan at least twice around 0.03–0.22 Ma. The montane and lowland Taiwan populations diverged with gene flow between them, suggesting strong selection associated with different elevations. We found that the montane babblers had smaller beaks than the lowland ones, consistent with Allen's rule, and identified candidate genes— COL9A1 and SOX11 —underlying the beak size changes. We also found that altitudinally divergent mutations were mostly located in noncoding regions and tended to accumulate in chromosomal inversions and autosomes. The altitudinally divergent mutations might regulate genes related to haematopoietic, metabolic, immune, auditory and vision functions, as well as cerebrum morphology and plumage development. The results reveal the genomic bases of morphological and physiological adaptation in this species to the low temperature, hypoxia and high UV light environment at high elevation. These findings improve our understanding of how ecological adaptation drives population divergence from the perspective of genomic architecture.

Effects of vegetation type differences induced by human disturbance on the nutrition strategy and gut microbiota of Siberian roe deer - Zi‐ao Yuan; Lin‐qiang Zhong; Hai‐rong Du; Jia‐nan Feng; Xin‐xin Liu; Hong‐yi Yuan; Jin‐hao Guo; Peng Liu; Ming‐hai Zhang (Molecular Ecology, 2023)
The Siberian roe deer ( Capreolus pygargus ) is a widely distributed ungulate in northeast China. Due to a series of human disturbance activities such as large‐scale forest cutting, deforestation and reclamation, road construction in the past, the appearance and internal structure of forest vegetation in the habitat of Siberian roe have changed significantly. At the same time, Siberian roe population had a series of ecological adaptation responses in the face of such habitat changes. Therefore, two typical vegetation types with differences were selected in the Muling Forest, China. We used nutritional ecology and microbial metagenomic analysis techniques to compare the nutritional selection strategy and the structure and functional characteristics of faecal microbiota of Siberian roe groups in two vegetation types. The results showed that the α diversity of dietary and gut microbes of deer in Natural Forest was higher than that in Plantation Forest. However, the gut microbes of the Plantation Forest group contained more unique enzymes in the functional pathways of carbon metabolism and biosynthesis of amino acids. This study suggests that habitat type is associated with plant community composition, and contributes to changes in the intake proportions of major macronutrients by altering the availability, quality, and composition of certain edible plants. Feeding behaviour may be an important regulatory factor of gut microbiota structure and function of deer. The metabolic function of gut microbiota to different nutrients may affect the microbial community structure. Therefore, our results suggest that the gut microbes of Siberian roe may have coevolved with their diets, and reflect the adaptability of deer populations to environmental changes (e.g., vegetation type). Our study provides new insights into how spatial heterogeneity affects nutrition and microecosystems by describing the interactions among the environment, diet, and symbiotic gut microbes in wild ungulates.

Numerical and Experimental Investigations on Non-Linear Wave Action on Offshore Wind Turbine Monopile Foundation - Sijia Deng; Ming Qin; Dezhi Ning; Lin Lin; Songxiong Wu; Chongwei Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Monopiles are commonly utilized in offshore wind farms but are prone to non-linear wave loads and run-ups, significantly affecting their engineering design. Therefore, it is crucial to pursue a complete understanding of the non-linear wave action on monopile foundations. Both numerical and experimental investigations on the non-linear wave loads and run-ups on an offshore wind turbine monopile foundation are performed in this paper. The experiment is carried out at a scale of 1/30 in a wave flume at the State Key Laboratory of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, Dalian University of Technology, in which the wave loads and run-ups along the monopile are measured. Based on the second-order potential flow model and time-domain higher-order boundary element method (HOBEM), the related numerical tests are conducted to study the non-linear effects further. It is found that the present non-linear potential theory is sufficient for the simulation of wave force and run-ups on the monopile in the range of wave slope kA

The diversity of mycorrhiza‐associated fungi and trees shapes subtropical mountain forest ecosystem functioning - Ya‐Huang Luo; Liang‐Liang Ma; Sebastian Seibold; Marc W. Cadotte; Kevin S. Burgess; Shao‐Lin Tan; Lin‐Jiang Ye; Wei Zheng; Jia‐Yun Zou; Zhi‐Fa Chen; De‐Tuan Liu; Guang‐Fu Zhu; et al. (Journal of Biogeography, 2023)
Aim Mycorrhiza play key roles for ecosystem structure and functioning in forests. However, how different mycorrhizal types influence mountain forest biodiversity–ecosystem functioning (BEF) relationships are largely unknown. We evaluate how the diversity of distinct mycorrhiza‐associated fungi and trees shapes forest carbon storage along elevational gradients. Location Gaoligong Mountains within Hengduan Mountains, Southwest China. Taxon Seed plants and mycorrhizal fungi. Methods We used the data from 31 subtropical forest plots along elevational gradients on two aspects (east and west) of the mountain. We quantified species richness of trees and symbiotic fungi and assigned both to their mycorrhizal type (arbuscular mycorrhiza [AM], ectomycorrhiza [EcM] and ericoid mycorrhiza [ErM]). We then examined the diversity effects of mycorrhiza‐associated fungi and trees on above‐ground carbon stored in trees and organic carbon stored in soils. Results Species richness was highest for AM trees (79.5%), followed by ErM trees (13.4%) and then EcM trees (7.1%). Species richness of AM‐associated trees and fungi decreased with increasing elevation, while ErM‐associated trees and fungi showed an opposite trend. EcM‐associated diversity followed a hump‐shaped relationship with elevation. Positive relationships between diversity and above‐ground carbon were detected in all three mycorrhizal associations, but despite low species number, canopy‐dominating EcM trees comprised 64.4% of the amount of above‐ground carbon. Furthermore, community‐weighted means of height exhibited positive correlations with forest above‐ground carbon, indicating that positive selection effects occur. Soil organic carbon was positively related to EcM‐associated fungi diversity, above‐ground carbon mass and soil nitrogen availability, with the latter having strongest direct effects. Main Conclusions The distributions of forest biodiversity and carbon storage can be modulated by distinct mycorrhizal fungi and trees. Moreover, future global changes (e.g. climate warming, intensifying nitrogen deposition) could alter the mycorrhizal‐mediated BEF relationships in mountain forests.

Distribution and physical–biological controls of dimethylsulfide in the western tropical Indian Ocean during winter monsoon - Shi-Mei Liang; Xing Zhai; Cheng-Xuan Li; Ming Xin; Ping Sun; Xuan-Li Liu; Lin Liu; Bao-Dong Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
New field observation on distribution, turnover, and sea–air flux of three dimethylated sulfur compounds (dimethylsulfide (DMS), dimethylsulfoniopropionate, and dimethylsulfoxide) in the western tropical Indian Ocean (WTIO; 4°N–10°S, 61°–65°E) were conducted under the major Global Change and Air–Sea Interaction Program during the 2021/2022 Northeast Monsoon (December 21, 2021 to January 11, 2022). Significantly high surface concentrations of DMS were identified in the region of the Seychelles–Chagos Thermocline Ridge (SCTR; 5°–10°S). This occurred because the shallow thermocline/nitracline and associated upwelling fueled biological production of DMS in the subsurface, which was brought to the surface through vertical mixing. The calculated sea–air DMS flux was also significantly strong in the SCTR region during the Northeast Monsoon owing to combination of high wind speed and high surface concentration of DMS. This finding is similar to results obtained previously during the Southwest Monsoon, suggesting that the SCTR region is an area of active DMS emission during both the Northeast Monsoon and the Southwest Monsoon. Microbial consumption was the dominant pathway of DMS removal, accounting for 74.4% of the total, whereas the processes of photolysis (17.7%) and ventilation (7.9%) were less important. Future work should be undertaken in the WTIO to establish how DMS emission is linked to aerosol properties and climate change.

Provenance and paleoenvironmental significance of sediments in the Beipo seamount of the northern South China Sea during the last deglaciation - Xu Tian; Xilin Zhang; Jinli Wang; Zhilei Sun; Ming Liu; Jinhuan Zhao; Lin Zhang; Dejiang Fan; Fangjian Xu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The sedimentary processes of seamount regions are closely related to climate change and ocean evolution. The clay minerals, grain size and 14 C ages of core SCS18-1, which was collected from the Beipo seamount in the northern South China Sea (SCS) were analyzed to discuss the provenance and paleoenvironmental conditions during the last deglaciation. The sediments of core SCS18-1 are dominated by clayey silt, which is mainly composed of illite (55.2~62.1%) and chlorite (17.1~22.5%), with subordinate kaolinite (9.5~12.6%) and smectite (7.3~15.1%). The illite chemical index and illite crystallinity indicate strong physical weathering conditions. The results of the end-member modeling algorithm (EMMA) suggest that the sediments of core SCS18-1 consist of three end-members containing EM1 (0.98 μm), EM2 (9.29 μm) and EM3 (44.19 μm), with average contents of 3%, 66% and 31%, respectively. The finest endmember represents fluvial mud, the middle and coarsest endmembers are considered fluvial fine silt and eolian dust, respectively. The mean grain size is mainly controlled by the coarser fraction EM3. Based on the clay minerals, grain size and SEM analysis, we can conclude that since the onset of the last deglaciation (16.1 ka BP), the sediments of core SCS18-1 mainly originate from fluvial input, and eolian material also contributed to the sediments. The clay mineral assemblages of core SCS18-1 are stable and originate mainly from Taiwan. Additionally, the Pearl River appears to be a secondary contributor of clay minerals. Further, the Luzon Islands only account for a small proportion. Major kaolinite and moderate illite and chlorite are thought to originate from the Pearl River, predominant illite and chlorite from Taiwan, and principal smectite from the Luzon Islands. Both the relative content of EM1+ EM2 and the illite chemical index effectively represent the variation of East Asia summer monsoon (EASM) strength. Meanwhile, the relative content of EM3 effectively represents the East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) change. The material supply of core SCS18-1 is mainly controlled by solar radiation in the Northern Hemisphere.

Improving the genome and proteome annotations of the marine model diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana using a proteogenomics strategy - Xiao-Huang Chen; Ming-Kun Yang; Yuan-Yuan Li; Zhang-Xian Xie; Shu-Feng Zhang; Mats Töpel; Shady A. Amin; Lin Lin; Feng Ge; Da-Zhi Wang (Marine Life Science & Technology, 2023)
Diatoms are unicellular eukaryotic phytoplankton that account for approximately 20% of global carbon fixation and 40% of marine primary productivity; thus, they are essential for global carbon biogeochemical cycling and climate. The availability of ten diatom genome sequences has facilitated evolutionary, biological and ecological research over the past decade; however, a complimentary map of the diatom proteome with direct measurements of proteins and peptides is still lacking. Here, we present a proteome map of the model marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana using high-resolution mass spectrometry combined with a proteogenomic strategy. In-depth proteomic profiling of three different growth phases and three nutrient-deficient samples identified 9526 proteins, accounting for ~ 81% of the predicted protein-coding genes. Proteogenomic analysis identified 1235 novel genes, 975 revised genes, 104 splice variants and 234 single amino acid variants. Furthermore, our quantitative proteomic analysis experimentally demonstrated that a considerable number of novel genes were differentially translated under different nutrient conditions. These findings substantially improve the genome annotation of T. pseudonana and provide insights into new biological functions of diatoms. This relatively comprehensive diatom proteome catalog will complement available diatom genome and transcriptome data to advance biological and ecological research of marine diatoms.

Somatostatin-Positive Neurons in the Rostral Zona Incerta Modulate Innate Fear-Induced Defensive Response in Mice - Shan Lin; Meng-Yue Zhu; Meng-Yu Tang; Mi Wang; Xiao-Dan Yu; Yi Zhu; Shi-Ze Xie; Dan Yang; Jiadong Chen; Xiao-Ming Li (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2023)
Defensive behaviors induced by innate fear or Pavlovian fear conditioning are crucial for animals to avoid threats and ensure survival. The zona incerta (ZI) has been demonstrated to play important roles in fear learning and fear memory, as well as modulating auditory-induced innate defensive behavior. However, whether the neuronal subtypes in the ZI and specific circuits can mediate the innate fear response is largely unknown. Here, we found that somatostatin (SST)-positive neurons in the rostral ZI of mice were activated by a visual innate fear stimulus. Optogenetic inhibition of SST-positive neurons in the rostral ZI resulted in reduced flight responses to an overhead looming stimulus. Optogenetic activation of SST-positive neurons in the rostral ZI induced fear-like defensive behavior including increased immobility and bradycardia. In addition, we demonstrated that manipulation of the GABAergic projections from SST-positive neurons in the rostral ZI to the downstream nucleus reuniens (Re) mediated fear-like defensive behavior. Retrograde trans-synaptic tracing also revealed looming stimulus-activated neurons in the superior colliculus (SC) that projected to the Re-projecting SST-positive neurons in the rostral ZI (SC-ZIr SST -Re pathway). Together, our study elucidates the function of SST-positive neurons in the rostral ZI and the SC-ZIr SST -Re tri-synaptic circuit in mediating the innate fear response.

The onset process of the 2018/2019 Indonesian–Australian summer monsoon: The importance of the air–sea interaction - Yongliang Duan; Hongwei Liu; Ming Feng; Xiangzhou Song; Kuiping Li; Lin Liu; Baochao Liu; Guang Yang; Weidong Yu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) and its associated air–sea interactions during the onset process of the 2018/2019 Indonesian–Australian summer monsoon (IASM) are investigated based on the in situ data from a moored buoy off the coast of northwest Australia, along with ERA5 reanalysis and satellite data. The results verify that the IASM onset in mid-December 2018 was triggered by the first-branch eastward-propagating MJO (FEMJO) originating from the tropical Indian Ocean. However, the strong negative SST anomaly (SSTA) was evident off northwest Australia, which weakens FEMJO over northern Australia and shifts the convective center further northward. The mixed layer heat budget analysis based on the buoy observations reveals that the increased latent heat loss that occurred before the arrival of the FEMJO convection was primarily attributed to the large air–sea temperature difference and strong winds, resulting in the pronounced SSTA.

Andrographolide ameliorates hepatic steatosis by suppressing FATP2-mediated fatty acid uptake in mice with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease - Li-Sha Ran; Ya-Zeng Wu; Yi-Wen Gan; Hong-Lian Wang; Li-Juan Wu; Chun-Mei Zheng; Yao Ming; Ran Xiong; Yong-Lin Li; Shi-Hang Lei; Xue Wang; Xiao-Qing Lao; et al. (Journal of Natural Medicines, 2023)
Excessive intrahepatocellular lipid accumulation or steatosis is caused by abnormal lipid metabolism and a common character of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which may progress into cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. Andrographolide (Andro) is the primary active ingredient extracted from Andrographis paniculata , showing a protective role against dietary steatosis with the mechanism not fully understood. In this study, we showed that administration of Andro (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day for 8 weeks, respectively) attenuated obesity and metabolic syndrome in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice with improved glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and reduced hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. HFD-fed mice presented hepatic steatosis, which was significantly prevented by Andro. In vitro, Andro decreased the intracellular lipid droplets in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells. The selected RT-PCR array revealed a robust expression suppression of the fatty acid transport proteins (FATPs) by Andro treatment. Most importantly, we found that Andro consistently reduced the expression of FATP2 in both the oleic acid-treated LO2 cells and liver tissues of HFD-fed mice. Overexpression of FATP2 abolished the lipid-lowering effect of Andro in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells. Andro treatment also reduced the fatty acid uptake in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells, which was blunted by FATP2 overexpression. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel mechanism underlying the anti-steatosis effect of Andro by suppressing FATP2-mediated fatty acid uptake, suggesting the potential therapeutic application of Andro in the treatment of NAFLD.

The biological transformation of ammonium and urea in a eutrophic estuarine system in Southern China - Jin-Ming Tang; Min Nina Xu; Yuxuan Lin; Huangxin Chen; Haoquan Jin; Li-Li Han; Wenbin Zou; Shuh-Ji Kao (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Estuaries channel large amounts of anthropogenic nitrogen (N) from continents to the offshore where productivity is widely limited by N and phosphorus. Ammonium and urea, two reduced forms of anthropogenic N commonly observed, are the preferred substrates for various microorganisms (e.g., uptake by phytoplankton or bacteria and oxidation by nitrifier). Yet, it remains underexplored how they transform and their concentrations vary during transport in the estuary which may influence the offshore microbial community. We applied 15 N isotope tracer incubation techniques to determine the two main bio-consumption processes, i.e., uptake and oxidation, of ammonium and urea, in the dark for the Jiulong River Estuary, a eutrophic estuary in southeastern China. Results showed that light penetration depth ranged from 0.8-3.3 m leaving 76% of estuary water bodies to stay in dark situations throughout a day. Ammonia oxidation, which favors dark conditions, dominates the estuarine regenerated-N cycle, showing the rank: ammonia oxidation > ammonium uptake >> urea uptake ≈ urea oxidation. By compiling the reported case studies, we found the relatively low ratio of urea oxidation to ammonia oxidation was accompanied by a relatively high ammonium concentration. Microorganisms’ high preference for ammonium over urea may lead to an inhibitory-like phenomenon. An analogous effect was evident by the increased urea uptake at downstream when ammonium was down to a few µM. The obstructed urea utilization resulted in 10 times longer lifetime for urea relative to ammonium (surface: 19 ± 9 days; bottom 12 ± 7 days). Such an inhibitory-like effect allows urea to be preserved in the estuary and allows urea to be transported farther offshore to stimulate microorganisms capable of utilizing urea, which may have significant impacts on offshore ecology.

Huang (Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, 2022)
Background: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are derived from internal cellular compartments, and have potential as a diagnostic and therapeutic tool in degenerative disease associated with aging. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have become a promising tool for functional EVs production. This study investigated the efficacy of EVs and its effect on differentiation capacity. Methods: The characteristics of MSCs were evaluated by flow cytometry and stem cell differentiation analysis, and a production mode of functional EVs was scaled from MSCs. The concentration and size of EVs were quantitated by Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA). Western blot analysis was used to assess the protein expression of exosome-specific markers. The effects of MSC-derived EVs were assessed by chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation analyses and histological observation. Results: The range of the particle size of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs)- and Wharton’s jelly -MSCs-derived EVs were from 130 to 150 nm as measured by NTA, which showed positive expression of exosomal markers. The chondrogenic induction ability was weakened in the absence of EVs in vitro . Interestingly, after EV administration, type II collagen, a major component in the cartilage extracellular matrix, was upregulated compared to the EV-free condition. Moreover, EVs decreased the lipid accumulation rate during adipogenic induction. Conclusion: The results indicated that the production model could facilitate production of effective EVs and further demonstrated the role of MSC-derived EVs in cell differentiation.

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

Comparison of ticagrelor and clopidogrel on platelet function and prognosis in unstable angina - Chun Li; Ming Liu; Weixiang Chen; Tingbo Jiang; Lin Ling (European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2022)
Purpose This study aims to compare the effects of ticagrelor and clopidogrel on platelet function, cardiovascular prognosis, and bleeding in patients with unstable angina pectoris. Methods Patients with unstable angina pectoris undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled (January 2018–December 2019). In total, 212 patients were treated with ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) and 210 patients were treated with clopidogrel (75 mg once daily). Thromboelastography and light transmission aggregometry were used to measure the platelet aggregation rate (PAR). High-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT), pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), and heart-type fatty acid–binding protein (h-FABP) were measured to assess myocardial injury after PCI. Cardiovascular prognosis and bleeding events were evaluated in hospital and 12 months after discharge. Results The PAR was significantly slower with ticagrelor ( P < 0.001). hs-TnT, NT-proBNP, CRP, and h-FABP increased after compared with before PCI in both groups ( P < 0.05). hs-TnT ( P < 0.001) and h-FABP ( P < 0.001) increased more significantly with clopidogrel. The in-hospital and 12-month major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rates were not significantly different between the two groups. The in-hospital total bleeding event rate was higher with ticagrelor ( P < 0.05). Minor bleeding and total bleeding were more frequent at the 12-month follow-up in the ticagrelor group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Ticagrelor was more effective in suppressing the PAR than clopidogrel and reduced PCI-induced myocardial injury in patients with unstable angina pectoris. However, it increased in-hospital and 12-month bleeding events and had no benefit on in-hospital and 12-month MACEs.

Evaluation of the Potential of the Hard Clam (Meretrix meretrix) Shell Which Can Be Used as the Bioindicator for Heavy Metal Accumulation - Yen-Ting Lin; Fang-Chi Chang; Ming-Tsung Chung; Ze-Kai Li; Chang-Chuan Chan; Ying-Sheng Huang; Kuo-Fang Huang; Yu-San Han (Fishes, 2022)
Clams, Meretrix meretrix, were one of the favorite aquatic products in Taiwan and the world. It was reported that the water pollutants such as heavy metals and chemicals might accumulate in the clam body and shell through filter-feeding behavior. Thus, the bivalves could be used as bioindicators in the aquatic environment. The present study analyzed 20 trace elements, Mg, Sr, Li, Cd, Ba, Mn, Al, U, Ti, Pb, Nd, B, S, Zn, Fe, P, Na, K, Cu, and Ni, in the shells of the clams collected from the wild coastal area and cultured ponds to evaluate which elements have the potential to be biomarkers. The concentrations of 20 elements were detected by Solution-Based Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (SB-ICPMS). Among them, Cd, Al, U, Ti, Nd, S, and K were below the detection limit. The remaining elements were analyzed for accumulation. The levels of Zn, Fe, and Ni possess high variation in an identical environment; so, a PCA was conducted without these three elements to reduce noise. The PCA result proved that the clam could absorb specific trace elements from the habitat. After a period of time, the contents of the absorption in the shells of the clams living in an identical environment became more similar. The analyzed element, Pb, was not found with a special difference in this study. The levels of Na, Sr, Mg, B, Mn, P, Ba, Li, and Cu reflected different sampling sites, which suggested that these elements in the species M. meretrix had the potential to be used as biomarkers for assessing heavy metal accumulation in the environment.

Gregarious larval settlement mediates the responses of new recruits of the reef coral Acropora austera to ocean warming and acidification - Lei Jiang; Yu-Yang Zhang; Cheng-Yue Liu; Lin-Tao Huang; Hao-Ya Tong; Guo-Wei Zhou; Ming-Lan Guo; Tao Yuan; Hui Huang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Gregarious larval settlement represents an important window for chimera formation in reef corals, yet it remains largely unknown how aggregated settlement and early chimerism could modify the performance and responses of coral recruits under elevated temperature and p CO 2 . In this study, single and aggregated recruits of the broadcast spawning coral Acropora austera were exposed to contrasts of two temperatures (28 versus 30.5°C) and p CO 2 levels (~500 versus 1000 μatm) for two weeks, and algal symbiont infection success, survivorship and growth were assessed. Results showed that symbiont infection success was mainly affected by temperature and recruit type, with reduced symbiont infection at increased temperature and consistently higher infection success in chimeric recruits compared to single recruits. Furthermore, although chimeric recruits with larger areal size had significantly higher survivorship in all treatments, the polyp-specific growth rates were considerably lower in chimeric entities than individual recruits. More importantly, the recruit type significantly influenced the responses of recruit polyp-specific growth rates to elevated temperature, with chimeras exhibiting lowered skeletal lateral growth under elevated temperature. These results demonstrate the benefits and costs associated with gregarious larval settlement for juvenile corals under ocean warming and acidification, and highlight the ecological role of larval settlement behavior in mediating the responses of coral recruits to climate change stressors.

Physiological Recordings of the Cerebellum in Movement Disorders - Ami Kumar; Chih-Chun Lin; Sheng-Han Kuo; Ming-Kai Pan (The Cerebellum, 2022)
The cerebellum plays an important role in movement disorders, specifically in symptoms of ataxia, tremor, and dystonia. Understanding the physiological signals of the cerebellum contributes to insights into the pathophysiology of these movement disorders and holds promise in advancing therapeutic development. Non-invasive techniques such as electroencephalogram and magnetoencephalogram can record neural signals with high temporal resolution at the millisecond level, which is uniquely suitable to interrogate cerebellar physiology. These techniques have recently been implemented to study cerebellar physiology in healthy subjects as well as individuals with movement disorders. In the present review, we focus on the current understanding of cerebellar physiology using these techniques to study movement disorders.

Multitrophic diversity and biotic associations influence subalpine forest ecosystem multifunctionality - Ya‐Huang Luo; Marc W. Cadotte; Jie Liu; Kevin S. Burgess; Shao‐Lin Tan; Lin‐Jiang Ye; Jia‐Yun Zou; Zhong‐Zheng Chen; Xue‐Long Jiang; Juan Li; Kun Xu; De‐Zhu Li; et al. (Ecology, 2022)
Biodiversity across multiple trophic levels is required to maintain multiple ecosystem functions. Yet it remains unclear how multitrophic diversity and species interactions regulate ecosystem multifunctionality. Here, combining data from 9 different trophic groups (including trees, shrubs, herbs, leaf mites, small mammals, bacteria, pathogenic fungi, saprophytic fungi, and symbiotic fungi) and 13 ecosystem functions related to supporting, provisioning, and regulating services, we used a multitrophic perspective to evaluate the effects of elevation, diversity, and network complexity on scale‐dependent subalpine forest multifunctionality. Our results demonstrated that elevation and soil pH significantly modified species composition and richness across multitrophic groups and influenced multiple functions simultaneously. We present evidence that species richness across multiple trophic groups had stronger effects on multifunctionality than species richness at any single trophic level. Moreover, biotic associations, indicating the complexity of trophic networks, were positively associated with multifunctionality. The relative effects of diversity on multifunctionality increased at the scale of the larger community compared to a scale accounting for neighboring interactions. Our results highlight the paramount importance of scale‐ and context‐dependent multitrophic diversity and interactions for a better understanding of mountain ecosystem multifunctionality in a changing world.

Systematic contributions of CFEM domain‐containing proteins to iron acquisition are essential for interspecies interaction of the filamentous pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana - Yue‐Jin Peng; Jia Hou; Hao Zhang; Jia‐Hui Lei; Hai‐Yan Lin; Jin‐Li Ding; Ming‐Guang Feng; Sheng‐Hua Ying (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary Common in fungal extracellular membrane (CFEM) domain is unique in fungal proteins and some of which contribute to iron acquisition in yeast. However, their roles in iron acquisition remain largely unknown in filamentous fungi. In this study, 12 CFEM‐containing proteins were bioinformatically identified in the filamentous entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana , and the roles of 11 genes were genetically characterized. Transmembrane helices were critical for their association with intracellular membranes, and their number varied among proteins. Eleven CFEM genes significantly contribute to vegetative growth under iron starvation and virulence. Notably, the virulence of most disruptants could be significantly weakened by a decrease in iron availability, in which the virulence of Δ Bbcfem7 and 8 strains was partially recovered by exogenous hemin. Δ Bbcfem7 and 8 mutants displayed defective competitiveness against the sister entomopathogenic fungus Beauveria brongniartii . All 11 disruptants displayed impaired growth in the antagonistic assay with the saprotrophic fungus Aspergillus niger , which could be repressed by exogenous ferric ions. These findings not only reveal the systematic contributions of CFEM proteins to acquire two forms of iron (i.e. heme and ferric ion) in the entire lifecycle of entomopathogenic fungi but also help to better understand the mechanisms of fungus–host and inter–fungus interactions.

Growth of non‐English‐language literature on biodiversity conservation - Shawan Chowdhury; Kristofer Gonzalez; M. Çisel Kemahlı Aytekin; Seung‐Yun Baek; Michał Bełcik; Sandro Bertolino; Sjoerd Duijns; Yuqing Han; Kerstin Jantke; Ryosuke Katayose; Mu‐Ming Lin; Elham Nourani; et al. (Conservation Biology, 2022)
English is widely recognized as the language of science, and English‐language publications (ELPs) are rapidly increasing. It is often assumed that the number of non‐ELPs is decreasing. This assumption contributes to the underuse of non‐ELPs in conservation science, practice, and policy, especially at the international level. However, the number of conservation articles published in different languages is poorly documented. Using local and international search systems, we searched for scientific articles on biodiversity conservation published from 1980 to 2018 in English and 15 non‐English languages. We compared the growth rate in publications across languages. In 12 of the 15 non‐English languages, published conservation articles significantly increased every year over the past 39 years, at a rate similar to English‐language articles. The other three languages showed contrasting results, depending on the search system. Since the 1990s, conservation science articles in most languages increased exponentially. The variation in the number of non‐English‐language articles identified among the search systems differed markedly (e.g., for simplified Chinese, 11,148 articles returned with local search system and 803 with Scopus). Google Scholar and local literature search systems returned the most articles for 11 and 4 non‐English languages, respectively. However, the proportion of peer‐reviewed conservation articles published in non‐English languages was highest in Scopus, followed by Web of Science and local search systems, and lowest in Google Scholar. About 20% of the sampled non‐English‐language articles provided no title or abstract in English; thus, in theory, they were undiscoverable with English keywords. Possible reasons for this include language barriers and the need to disseminate research in countries where English is not widely spoken. Given the known biases in statistical methods and study characteristics between English‐ and non‐English‐language studies, non‐English‐language articles will continue to play an important role in improving the understanding of biodiversity and its conservation.
