Local temperature increases reduce soil microbial residues and carbon stocks - Xiao‐Min Zeng; Jiao Feng; Dai‐Lin Yu; Shu‐Hai Wen; Qianggong Zhang; Qiaoyun Huang; Manuel Delgado‐Baquerizo; Yu‐Rong Liu (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Warming is known to reduce soil carbon (C) stocks by promoting microbial respiration, which is associated with the decomposition of microbial residue carbon (MRC). However, the relative contribution of MRC to soil organic carbon (SOC) across temperature gradients is poorly understood. Here, we investigated the contribution of MRC to SOC along two independent elevation gradients of our model system (i.e., the Tibetan Plateau and Shennongjia Mountain in China). Our results showed that local temperature increases were negatively correlated with MRC and SOC. Further analyses revealed that rising temperature reduced SOC via decreasing MRC, which helps to explain future reductions in SOC under climate warming. Our findings demonstrate that climate warming has the potential to reduce C sequestration by increasing the decomposition of MRC, exacerbating the positive feedback between rising temperature and CO 2 efflux. Our study also considered the influence of multiple environmental factors such as soil pH and moisture, which were more important in controlling SOC than microbial traits such as microbial life‐style strategies and metabolic efficiency. Together, our work suggests an important mechanism underlying long‐term soil C sequestration, which has important implications for the microbial‐mediated C process in the face of global climate change.

The spatial-temporal consistency of chlorophyll-a and fishery resources in the water of the Zhoushan archipelago revealed by high resolution remote sensing - Lina Cai; Rong Tang; Xiaojun Yan; Yongdong Zhou; Jingjing Jiang; Menghan Yu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Details of the chlorophyll- a (Chl- a ) distribution in the water of the Zhoushan archipelago were analyzed based on data from the panchromatic multispectral sensor (PMS) of the GaoFen-6 (GF-6). A new Chl- a inversion model was built using in-situ Chl- a and the green-red bands of the 2 m spatial resolution GF-6/PMS image. Combined with fishery data, the relationship between Chl- a concentration and fish resources were revealed. The results show that: (1) High Chl- a concentration area was mainly concentrated in the nearshore intensive islands waters, and Chl- a concentration changes obviously with the change of tidal currents. Chl- a concentration around islands increases, especially downstream of islands. Seasonally, Chl- a concentration is higher in spring and summer, lower in autumn, and lowest in winter. (2) The change of fish eggs and larvae in the water of the Zhoushan archipelago shows consistency with the spatial distribution and seasonal variation of Chl- a . (3) The interaction between tidal currents and islands results in the diverse currents (upstream upwelling and downstream vortex currents) around the islands, promoting vertical water exchange and the uplifting of nutrients, resulting in a high overall Chl- a concentration in the waters around the islands. The diverse flow conditions, the ideal nutrient-rich environment, and the abundant phytoplankton attract a large number of fish to gather and breed in the waters around the islands. (4) Chl- a of intensive island waters is an essential indicator for fish spawning grounds.

(Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2022)
microRNA (miRNA) is a type of endogenous short-chain non-coding RNA with regulatory function found in eukaryotes, which is involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular and biological processes. However, the research on the development of cashmere goat secondary hair follicles is still relatively scarce. In this study, small RNA libraries and mRNA libraries of 45 days, 55 days, 65 days, and 75 days of fetal skin of cashmere goats were constructed, and the constructed libraries were sequenced using Illumina Hiseq4000, and the expression profiles of miRNA and mRNA in cashmere goat fetal skin were obtained. The differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs in six control groups were identified and the qRT-PCR experiment shows that the sequencing results are accurate. Sixty-six miRNAs related to secondary hair follicle development were screened, and used TargetScan and miRanda to predict 33 highly expressed miRNA target genes. At the same time, 664 mRNAs related to the development of secondary hair follicles were screened, and GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis were performed. It was found that some miRNA target genes were consistent with the screening results of mRNAs related to secondary hair follicle development and were enriched in Notch signaling pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway. Therefore, miR-145-5p-DLL4, miR-27b-3p-DLL4, miR-30e-5p-DLL4, miR-193b-3p-TGF-β1, miR-181b-5p-NOTCH2, and miR-103-3p-NOTCH2 regulatory network related to the development of secondary hair follicles were constructed and the results of dual-luciferase reporter gene assay indicated that there is a targeted relationship between chi-miR-30e-5p and DLL4, which will provide a basis for molecular mechanism of miRNA-mRNA in the development of the hair follicles in cashmere goats.

Physiology, metabolism, antibiotic resistance, and genetic diversity of Harveyi clade bacteria isolated from coastal mariculture system in China in the last two decades - Hao Kang; Yongxiang Yu; Meijie Liao; Yingeng Wang; Guanpin Yang; Zheng Zhang; Bin Li; Xiaojun Rong; Chunyuan Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Vibrio bacteria, particularly members of the Harveyi clade, are the most important pathogens of aquatic organisms that cause significant economic losses in the world. It is difficult to provide specific data on taxa of the Harveyi clade for biological research and prevention strategies. Therefore, we conducted an extensive phenotypic and antibiotic resistance study, as well as phylogenetic and molecular typing of 192 isolates of the Harveyi clade collection from 2000 to 2020 with a typical interannual difference from a coastal area in China. The isolates had a significant interspecific genetic and antibiotic resistance diversity. Based on the multilocus sequence analysis (MLSA) of housekeeping genes ( gyrB , pyrH , recA , and atpA ), 192 Harveyi clade isolates were rapidly and accurately classified into 10 species. The population of these isolates was composed of 95 sequence types (STs), of which 92 STs were newly identified, indicating a high degree of genetic diversity. ST327 ranked first, accounting for 11.5% of the total number of isolates (22 out of 192), followed by ST215 with 6.25%, while 63 STs included single isolates. At the metabolic level, the physiological and biochemical experiments revealed that all the Harveyi clade isolates were positive for oxidase and negative for melibiose. The isolates showed a varied tolerance to 11 antibiotics. No isolates were resistant to neomycin. The percentages of sulfadimidine-resistant strains (61 out of 192), sulfadiazine (44 out of 192), sulfamonomethoxine (44 out of 192), sulfamethoxazole (33 out of 192), thiamphenicol (34 out of 192), ciprofloxacin (52 out of 192), and enrofloxacin (31 out of 192) were 31.77%, 22.92%, 22.92%, 17.19%, 17.71%, 27.08%, and 16.15%, respectively. A proportion of 61.8% of the isolates presented a multiple antibiotic resistance index (MARI) lower than 0.1, indicating that the risk of antibiotic resistance transmission of most of the Harveyi clade is low in mariculture systems in China. These results provide substantial data to support further studies on the identification and genetic and metabolic diversity of Harveyi clade isolates in mariculture systems in China.

Antimicrobial Resistance and Genotype Characteristics of Vibrio scophthalmi Isolated from Diseased Mariculture Fish Intestines With Typical Inter-Annual Variability - Yongxiang Yu; Xiao Liu; Yingeng Wang; Meijie Liao; Miaomiao Tang; Xiaojun Rong; Chunyuan Wang; Bin Li; Zheng Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
As an intestinal organism settled long-term within the gut of marine fish, Vibrio scophthalmi is a potential object for the bacterium genetic variation and adaptation research. The genetic diversity, antimicrobial resistance phenotype, and genotype of 33 V. scophthalmi isolated from diseased marine fish intestines between 2002 and 2020 were evaluated. The results showed that all isolates were frequently resistant to penicillins, cephalosporins, aminoglycosides, and macrolides and displayed multidrug-resistant (MDR) phenotype in vitro . Thirty percent of isolates were resistant to more than 20 different drugs. The average insensitive (resistant and intermediate) rate of V. scophthalmi isolates was 49.5%~81.8% between 2002 and 2020, but the t-test revealed that there was no significant difference in the drug-resistance rate of V. scophthalmi isolates with typical interannual variability. Eleven antimicrobial resistance genes ( strB , strA , ant(3 ˝)-I , mphA , blaPSE , qnrS , tetC , tetE , tetM , tetS , and int1 ) were detected in these isolates, but the antimicrobial resistance phenotypes and genotypes of these isolates were not consistent. Enterobacterial repetitive intergenic consensus polymerase chain reaction (ERIC-PCR) analysis indicated that 33 isolates could be divided into two clusters (G1 and G3) and two single isolates (G2 and G4), and the G2 cluster was isolated from South Sea C. undulates with typical geographical species differences. There was no significant correlation between the drug susceptibility and the genetic types of V. scophthalmi isolates. The results reveal the mismatch phenomenon between antimicrobial resistance and genotype of inherent V. scophthalmi in the marine fish intestines, and the antimicrobial susceptibility isolates might be a potential risk source for storage and transmission of resistance genes.

Factors Influencing Alzheimer’s Disease Risk: Whether and How They are Related to the APOE Genotype - Rong Zhang; Xiaojiao Xu; Hang Yu; Xiaolan Xu; Manli Wang; Weidong Le (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2022)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent neurodegenerative disease featuring progressive cognitive impairment. Although the etiology of late-onset AD remains unclear, the close association of AD with apolipoprotein E (APOE), a gene that mainly regulates lipid metabolism, has been firmly established and may shed light on the exploration of AD pathogenesis and therapy. However, various confounding factors interfere with the APOE -related AD risk, raising questions about our comprehension of the clinical findings concerning APOE . In this review, we summarize the most debated factors interacting with the APOE genotype and AD pathogenesis, depict the extent to which these factors relate to APOE -dependent AD risk, and discuss the possible underlying mechanisms.

Understanding the social impacts of enforcement activities on illegal wildlife trade in China - Sifan Hu; Yu Cheng; Rong Pan; Fasheng Zou; Tien Ming Lee (Ambio, 2022)
Illegal wildlife trade enforcement is a cornerstone conservation strategy worldwide, yet we have a limited understanding on its social impacts. Using Chinese online wildlife seizure news (2003–2018), we evaluated the interactions among enforcement operations, news frequency, and social engagement (i.e., whistle-blowing) frequency. Our results showed that intensive enforcement operations, which commenced after 2012, have social impacts by increasing the frequency of all seizure news significantly by 28% [95% Confidence Interval (CI): 5%, 51%] and those via whistle-blowing by 24% [95% CI: 2%, 45%], when compared to counterfactual models where possible confounding factors were accounted for. Furthermore, we revealed the potential interaction between enforcement seizure news with and without social engagement, and the consequential social feedback process. Of the species identified from ‘whistle-blowing’ news, up to 28% are considered as high conservation priorities. Overall, we expanded our understanding of the enforcement impacts to social dimensions, which could contribute to improving the cost-effectiveness of such conservation efforts.

Circulatory and Metabolic Physiology Disorder in Different Organs of the Subtropical Scallop Species Chlamys nobilis Under Thermal and Hypoxia Stress, Revealed by Doppler Ultrasonography Technique - Yu Hao; Chunyang Sun; Yun Rong; Haiqing Wang; Qiang Xu; Fei Gao; Aimin Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Extremely high temperature and hypoxia are mounting problems affecting the world’s coastal waters under the global warming environment, with severe consequences for marine life. Scallop is one of the most fragile species to hypoxia stress for their high respiration rate and lack of self-protection ability such as long-time shell closing. Circulatory physiology rhythm is sensitive to environmental stress and is an important means for shellfish to quickly respond to environmental stress. Therefore, monitoring the circulatory physiology indexes of Chlamys nobilis under hypoxia and high temperature stress is helpful to quickly diagnose its stress state and reveal the response process of circulatory system to the stress. In this study, using real-time Doppler ultrasonography technique, we continuously monitored the circulatory physiological indexes [heart rate (HR), blood flow volume (FV), blood velocity (PS and ED), resistance index (RI) and S/D ratio) of the scallop organs (gill, mantle and adductor muscle) under hypoxia (mild 4 mg/L DO, moderate 3 mg/L DO and severe 2 mg/L DO)] and fluctuating high temperature stress (29-31°C). Important metabolic function indexes [adenosine triphosphate (ATP), pyruvate kinase (PK) and cytochrome C oxidase (COX)] of various tissues were measured simultaneously. The results show that scallops are very sensitive to the changes of temperature and dissolved oxygen. Both high temperature and hypoxia will increase the HR, and severe hypoxia will bring greater load to the heart of the scallop. Hypoxia stress mainly caused the changes of PS, and the RI and S/D of the gill gradually increased. At 2mg/L DO level, the total blood flow of the mantle and adductor muscle decreased, but the blood flow supply in the gill was stable. The scallop is very sensitive to the change of high temperature and can make adjustments immediately. High temperature increased blood flow in various organs and preferentially supplied to the gill. The RI and S/D of branchial vessels under high temperature were lower than those under hypoxia. The ATP content of the mantle was continuous accumulated under high temperature and was significantly higher than that of the gill and adductor muscle, indicating the specificity of tissue metabolism. The overall circulatory physiological indexes of the gill showed a more positive response to the stress environment than the mantle and adductor muscle. All the results proved that the gill has the best resistance to the hypoxia and high temperature stress. Our study revealed the circulatory physiology regulation mechanism of the noble scallop C. nobilis under environmental stress, and provide effective data and technique supports for the timely diagnose of stress condition of the species, so as to formulate necessary handling strategies for the scallop farm.

Case studies of atmospheric moisture sources in the source region of the Yellow River from a Lagrangian perspective - Rong Liu; Jun Wen; Xin Wang; Zuoliang Wang; Yu Liu (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
In this study, atmospheric moisture source regions and transport pathways, which substantially affect extreme summer precipitation events in the source region of the Yellow River (SRYR) of China were investigated using the Lagrangian Flexible Particle Dispersion Model (FLEXPART). Based on the 24‐hour cumulative precipitation data from the China Meteorological Data Service Center, 2012 and 2015 were selected to represent wet and dry years during the period 2007–2016, respectively. The results indicate that potential moisture sources include the northern Tibetan Plateau, the Bay of Bengal, the southern edge of the Himalayas, Sichuan Basin, and the SRYR. In the wet year, moisture from the southern branch was transported along two pathways: (a) moisture from the Arabian Sea was carried by the Somalia jet and entered the SRYR through the Indian Peninsula and Bay of Bengal, and (b) moisture from the South China Sea entered the SRYR through the Sichuan Basin. In the dry year, the moisture primary originated from the northern branch. Moisture from the eastern European Plain or northern Africa was carried by the westerly jet and entered the SRYR. It is estimated that the ratios of moisture from the northern and southern branches contributing to the precipitation in the SRYR were 22.1 and 15.9% in the wet year, while they were 52.9 and 8.4% in the dry year, respectively. Internal moisture recycling contributed ~22.0% to precipitation in the wet year and 11.0% in the dry year. In this study, the transport trajectories of moisture contributing to extreme precipitation events in the SRYR are delineated. The results indicate that the northern branch is the primary contributor of moisture in the SRYR.

Non-vernalization requirement in Chinese kale caused by loss of BoFLC and low expressions of its paralogs - Qiwei Tang; Hanhui Kuang; Changchun Yu; Guanghui An; Rong Tao; Weiyi Zhang; Yue Jia (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2022)
Key message We identified the loss of BoFLC gene as the cause of non-vernalization requirement in B. oleracea . Our developed codominant marker of BoFLC gene can be used for breeding program of B. oleracea crops . Abstract Many species of the Brassicaceae family, including some Brassica crops, require vernalization to avoid pre-winter flowering. Vernalization is an unfavorable trait for Chinese kale ( Brassica oleracea var. chinensis Lei ), a stem vegetable, and therefore it has been lost during its domestication/breeding process. To reveal the genetics of vernalization variation, we constructed an F 2 population through crossing a Chinese kale (a non-vernalization crop) with a kale (a vernalization crop). Using bulked segregant analysis (BSA) and RNA-seq, we identified one major quantitative trait locus (QTL) controlling vernalization and fine-mapped it to a region spanning 80 kb. Synteny analysis and PCR-based sequencing results revealed that compared to that of the kale parent, the candidate region of the Chinese kale parent lost a 9,325-bp fragment containing FLC homolog ( BoFLC ). In addition to the BoFLC gene, there are four other FLC homologs in the genome of B. oleracea , including Bo3g005470 , Bo3g024250 , Bo9g173370, and Bo9g173400 . The qPCR analysis showed that the BoFLC had the highest expression among the five members of the FLC family. Considering the low expression levels of the four paralogs of BoFLC , we speculate that its paralogs cannot compensate the function of the lost BoFLC, therefore the presence/absence (PA) polymorphism of BoFLC determines the vernalization variation. Based on the PA polymorphism of BoFLC , we designed a codominant marker for the vernalization trait, which can be used for breeding programs of B. oleracea crops.

Several outbreaks of duck hepatitis A virus type 1 (DHAV-1), which were characterized by yellow coloration and hemorrhage in pancreatic tissues, have occurred in China. The causative agent is called pancreatitis-associated DHAV-1. The mechanisms involved in pancreatitis-associated DHAV-1 infection are still unclear. Transcriptome analysis of duck pancreas infected with classical-type DHAV-1 and pancreatitis-associated DHAV-1 was carried out. Deep sequencing with Illumina-Solexa resulted in a total of 53.9 Gb of clean data from the cDNA library of the pancreas, and a total of 29,597 unigenes with an average length of 993.43 bp were generated by de novo sequence assembly. The expression levels of D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase, phosphoserine aminotransferase, and phosphoserine phosphatase, which are involved in glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism pathways, were significantly downregulated in ducks infected with pancreatitis-associated DHAV-1 compared with those infected with classical-type DHAV-1. These findings provide information regarding differences in expression levels of metabolism-associated genes between ducks infected with pancreatitis-associated DHAV-1 and those infected with classical-type DHAV-1, indicating that intensive metabolism disorders may contribute to the different phenotypes of DHAV-1-infection.

Summary Hypocrealean Trichoderma are the most extensively studied facultative mycoparasites against phytopathogenic fungi. Aerial hyphae of Trichoderma guizhouense can rapidly proliferate over Fusarium oxysporum hyphae, cause sporadic cell death and arrest the growth of the host. The results of the present study demonstrated that a unique short‐chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR), designated as TgSDR1, was expressed at a high level in T . guizhouense challenged by the hosts. Similar to other SDRs family members, the TgSDR1 protein contains a cofactor‐binding motif and a catalytic site. The subcellular localization assay revealed that the TgSDR1::GFP fusion protein translocated to lipid droplets in mycelia and conidia. The data obtained using reverse genetic approach indicated that TgSDR1 is associated with antifungal ability, plays an important role in providing reducing equivalents in the form of NADPH and regulates the amino sugar and nucleotide sugar metabolism in T . guizhouense upon encountering a host. Moreover, the TgSDR1 deletion mutant was defective in conidiation. Thus, TgSDR1 functions as a key metabolic enzyme in T . guizhouense to regulate mycotrophic interactions, defence against other fungi, such as F . oxysporum , and conidiation.

20–40% of lung cancer patients develop bone metastasis (BM) with significantly decreased overall survival. Currently, BM is mainly diagnosed by computerized tomography (CT) scan or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when symptom develops. Novel biomarkers with higher prediction value of BM are needed. Plasma-derived exosomal microRNAs had been isolated and sequenced of total 30 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients including 16 with bone metastasis and 14 without bone metastasis. Hierarchical clustering based on the total miRNA profile can clearly separate cancer patients and healthy individuals (H), but not patients with (BM +) or without (BM−) BM. Weight Co-expression network of miRNAs (WGCNA) analyses identified three consensus clusters (A, B, C) of highly correlated miRNAs, among which cluster B (144 miRNAs) showed significantly differential expression in lung cancer patients, especially in BM + group. Pathway analysis of cluster B miRNAs revealed enrichment in metabolic pathways that may involve in preconditioning of the metastatic niche. Three differentially expressed miRNAs between BM + and BM− patients within cluster B were identified as miR-574-5p, a suppressor of Wnt/β-catenin pathway, was down-regulated, while miR-328-3p and miR-423-3p, two activators of the same pathway, were up-regulated in BM + patients. Cluster A miRNAs (n = 49) also showed trend of upregulation in BM + patients. Interestingly, pathway analysis indicated that 43 of them are associated with chromosome14, which has been suggested to promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and bone metastasis.

The secondary metabolite regulator, BbSmr1 , is a central regulator of conidiation via the BrlA‐AbaA‐WetA pathway in Beauveria bassiana - Jin‐Feng Chen; Yu Liu; Gui‐Rong Tang; Dan Jin; Xi Chen; Yan Pei; Yan‐Hua Fan (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary The filamentous fungus Beauveria bassiana , an insect fungal pathogen, is widely used for pest biocontrol. Aerial conidia are infectious propagules, and their yield and viability greatly affect the field application of this fungus; however, little is known about the molecular regulatory mechanism of the triggered conidiation. In the present study, we find that the secondary metabolite regulator BbSmr1 is involved in the regulation of asexual conidiation development and stress response in B. bassiana . A deficiency in Bbsmr1 results in a prominent fluffy‐like phenotype on solid medium, decreased conidial yield, accelerated conidial germination, as well as increased tolerance to H 2 O 2 stress and cell wall inhibitors. The deletion of Bbsmr1 also leads to thickened conidial cell walls and changed cell epitopes. Overexpressing either BbbrlA or BbabaA in the ∆Bbsmr1 strain can rescue the phenotypes of conidial development and stress response. BbSmr1 activates BbbrlA transcription by directly binding to the A4GA3 sequence of the BbbrlA promoter. BbBrlA in turn binds to the promoter of Bbsmr1 and negatively regulates the expression of Bbsmr1 . These results indicate that BbSmr1 positively regulates conidial development in B. bassiana by activating the central development pathway BrlA‐AbaA‐WetA and provides insights into the developmental regulatory mechanism of entomopathogenic fungi.

Climate‐induced nonlinearity in pelagic communities and non‐stationary relationships with physical drivers in the Kuroshio ecosystem - Shuyang Ma; Yongjun Tian; Caihong Fu; Haiqing Yu; Jianchao Li; Yang Liu; Jiahua Cheng; Rong Wan; Yoshiro Watanabe (Fish and Fisheries, 2021)
Climate‐induced nonlinearity in biological variability and non‐stationary relationships with physical drivers are crucial to understand responses of marine organisms to climate variability. These phenomena have raised concerns in the northeastern North Pacific, but are out of the spotlight in the northwestern North Pacific in spite of potential implications for this productive system under increased climate variability. Pelagic communities in the Kuroshio ecosystem have both ecological and economic importance. However, patterns of climate‐induced nonlinearity in pelagic communities are not well understood, and existence of non‐stationarity in their relationships with physical drivers remains obscure. Here, we compile large numbers of climatic, oceanic and biological long‐term time‐series data and employ diverse statistical techniques to reveal such climate‐induced nonlinearity and non‐stationarity. Results show that pelagic communities in the Tsushima and Pacific areas (major areas in the Kuroshio ecosystem) had regime shifts in the late 1990s and late 1980s, respectively. Winter sea surface temperatures in the Kuroshio Current path and in the eastern part of East China Sea, which are respectively affected by the Kuroshio Current and Siberian High, correlate with dominant variability patterns in their pelagic communities. Furthermore, non‐stationarity was identified with threshold years in the 1990s in the Tsushima area and in the 1980s in the Pacific area as a possible result of the declined variances in the Siberian High and Aleutian Low, respectively. Our findings provide insights on spatial differentiation of climate‐induced nonlinearity and non‐stationarity, which are valuable for the management of pelagic communities in the northwestern North Pacific under changing climatic conditions.

The corresponding hemodynamic changes of the internal carotid artery (ICA) after the revascularization surgery for moyamoya disease (MMD) remain unclear. The aim of this study was to analyze the hemodynamic changes of the ipsilateral ICA after the combined direct and indirect extracranial-intracranial (EC-IC) bypass. MMD patients undergoing combined EC-IC bypass were retrospectively reviewed. The mean transit time (MTT) of ICA was evaluated by color-coding angiography before revascularization and at follow-up. The MTT defined as the blood transit time between the end of cervical portion (C1) and the C7 segment of ICA. The clinical prognosis was assessed with Matsushima grading system, moyamoya vessel reduction system, and modified Rankin Scale (mRS). The correlation between hemodynamic parameter and prognosis was analyzed. Subgroup analysis was conducted between different presentations and different ages. Fifty-one patients were identified and the mean imaging follow-up interval was 5.5 months. The ICA-MTT was increased after the combined revascularization ( P < 0.001) compared with contralateral ICA. Faster preoperative ICA-MTT was significantly associated with improved mRS in the ischemic group ( P = 0.05). The increased ICA-MTT was significantly associated with favorable neoangiogenesis ( P = 0.04), moyamoya vessel reduction (> 50%) ( P = 0.023), and improved mRS score ( P = 0.008). In subgroup analysis, the correlation in the ischemic subgroup and adult subgroup remained significant. In this cohort, the ICA-MTT increased after the combined EC-IC bypass, and there was a positive correlation between the increased blood transit time and favorable outcomes. Color-coding DSA proved to be useful as a quantitative and serial method to monitor postoperative courses after revascularization in MMD.

The impact of particulate matter 2.5 on the risk of preeclampsia: an updated systematic review and meta-analysis - Hongbiao Yu; Yangxue Yin; Jiashuo Zhang; Rong Zhou (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020)
There is increasing and inconsistent evidence of a linkage between maternal exposure to particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) and preeclampsia. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate this relationship. Electronic databases including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library were searched to identify articles published from inception to March 23, 2020, which showed a correlation between PM2.5 and preeclampsia. Finally, 9 of 523 initial studies were deemed eligible for inclusion. A random effect model was adopted to calculate the standardized odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence interval (CI). Based on potential effect modification, subgroup analyses were further performed. Meta-analysis showed that maternal exposure to PM2.5 (per 10 μg/m 3 increment) elevated the risk of preeclampsia (OR = 1.32, 95% CI 1.10 to 1.58%). Compared with other pregnancy trimesters, the third trimester of pregnancy seems to be the period in which women are more susceptible to PM2.5. Significant effect modification of the correlation between PM2.5 exposure and preeclampsia according to multiple pregnancies, pregnancy stage, maternal-related disease history, and sample size was not observed. The results demonstrated that maternal exposure to PM2.5 may predispose pregnant women to develop preeclampsia, especially in the third trimester of pregnancy. Therefore, more efforts should be made to improve air quality to maintain the health of pregnant women.

Purinergic signaling as a basis of acupuncture-induced analgesia - Jin-Rong He; Shu-Guang Yu; Yong Tang; Peter Illes (Purinergic Signalling, 2020)
This review summarizes experimental evidence indicating that purinergic mechanisms are causally involved in acupuncture (AP)-induced analgesia. Electroacupuncture (EAP) and manual AP release at pain-relevant acupoints ATP which may activate purinergic P2X receptors (Rs) especially of the P2X3 type situated at local sensory nerve endings (peripheral terminals of dorsal root ganglion [DRG] neurons); the central processes of these neurons are thought to inhibit via collaterals of ascending dorsal horn spinal cord neurons, pain-relevant pathways projecting to higher centers of the brain. In addition, during AP/EAP non-neuronal P2X4 and/or P2X7Rs localized at microglial cells of the CNS become activated at the spinal or supraspinal levels. In consequence, these microglia secrete bioactive compounds such as growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, reactive oxygen, and nitrogen species, which modulate the ascending neuronal pathways conducting painful stimuli. Alternatively, ATP released at acupoints by AP/EAP may be enzymatically degraded to adenosine, stimulating in loco presynaptic A1Rs exerting an inhibitory influence on the primary afferent fibers (the above mentioned pain-sensing peripheral terminals of DRG neurons) which thereby fail to conduct action potentials to the spinal cord dorsal horn. The net effect of the stimulation of P2X3, P2X4, P2X7, and A1Rs by the AP/EAP-induced release of ATP/adenosine at certain acupoints will be analgesia.

The Joubert Syndrome Gene arl13b is Critical for Early Cerebellar Development in Zebrafish - Jian Zhu; Han-Tsing Wang; Yu-Rong Chen; Ling-Ya Yan; Ying-Ying Han; Ling-Yan Liu; Ying Cao; Zhi-Zhi Liu; Hong A. Xu (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2020)
Joubert syndrome is characterized by unique malformation of the cerebellar vermis. More than thirty Joubert syndrome genes have been identified, including ARL13B . However, its role in cerebellar development remains unexplored. We found that knockdown or knockout of arl13b impaired balance and locomotion in zebrafish larvae. Granule cells were selectively reduced in the corpus cerebelli, a structure homologous to the mammalian vermis. Purkinje cell progenitors were also selectively disturbed dorsomedially. The expression of atoh1 and ptf1 , proneural genes of granule and Purkinje cells, respectively, were selectively down-regulated along the dorsal midline of the cerebellum. Moreover, wnt1 , which is transiently expressed early in cerebellar development, was selectively reduced. Intriguingly, activating Wnt signaling partially rescued the granule cell defects in arl13b mutants. These findings suggested that Arl13b is necessary for the early development of cerebellar granule and Purkinje cells. The arl13b -deficient zebrafish can serve as a model organism for studying Joubert syndrome.

The effects of mesoscale oceanographic structures and ambient conditions on the catch of albacore tuna in the South Pacific longline fishery - Cheng Zhou; Pingguo He; Liuxiong Xu; Pascal Bach; Xuefang Wang; Rong Wan; Hao Tang; Yu Zhang (Fisheries Oceanography, 2020)
Albacore tuna ( Thunnus alalunga ) exhibit patchy concentrations associated with biological process at a wide range of spatial scales, resulting in variations in their catchability by fishing gears. Here, we investigated the association of catch variation for pelagic longlines in the South Pacific Ocean with oceanographic mesoscale structures (in horizontal dimension) and ambient conditions (in vertical dimension). The distribution of albacore tuna as indicated by catch per unit effort (CPUE) of longlines was significantly related to the presence of mesoscale structures, with higher CPUE found at locations closer to thermal fronts and with greater gradient magnitudes, as well as areas marked by peripheral contour line of the anticyclone indicated by Sea Surface Height Anomalies ~0.05 m. Surface mesoscale current velocity had the negative effect on the catch, probably as a result of decreased catchability by shoaling the hook depth. Vertical distribution of albacore in the survey region of South Pacific Ocean was hardly restricted by ambient temperature and oxygen concentration, though effect of ambient temperature was relevant and showed a negatively linear correlation with CPUE at the range of 20–24°C. On the contrary, albacore distribution was evidently dominated by the water depth and showed strong preference on water depth of 200 m, which was likely a representative feeding layer. The presence of prey resources and their accessibility by albacore revealed by mesoscale structures in the biological and physical processes, and catchability determined by the location of the baited hooks comprehensively contribute to the variability of catch.

Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima Blume) - Zhi-lin Sun; Xiao Li; Wan Zhou; Jun-di Yan; Yue-rong Gao; Xiao-wei Li; Jia-chen Sun; Ke-feng Fang; Qing Zhang; Yu Xing; Ling Qin; Qing-qin Cao (Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture (PCTOC), 2020)
Chinese chestnut ( Castanea mollissima ) is an important germplasm resource for the breeding of Castanea species worldwide with vital ecological and economic value. Biotechnology overcomes the limitations of traditional breeding and accelerates germplasm improvement. However, a genetic transformation system for Chinese chestnut has not yet been established. In this study, a stable and efficient Agrobacterium -mediated genetic transformation method for Chinese chestnut is described. Embryogenic calli of C. mollissima cv. ‘Yanshanhongli’ were used as the target material. The sensitivity of embryogenic calli to kanamycin was determined, whereby the proliferation of non-transformed calli was completely inhibited at 180 mg/L. Antibiotic inhibition results for Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli showed that 50 mg/L cefotaxime and 500 μM timentin completely inhibited the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens but did not affect the normal growth of Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli. When embryogenic calli were co-cultured for 2 days with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1 harboring the PBI121-EGFP plasmid, an embryogenic callus transformation efficiency of 4.55% was obtained, and two transgenic chimera were acquired. This Agrobacterium -mediated transformation system for Chinese chestnut provides a fundamental platform for genetic improvement of core germplasm and for further verification of gene function.
