12. The behaviour of Sn and W at the magmatic-hydrothermal transition: Insights from natural and synthetic fluid inclusions

Michaud, Julie Anne-Sophie, Holtz, François, and Horn, Ingo
- Abstract
Tin (Sn) and tungsten (W) have been established as strategic metals, whose resources are mainly related to highly evolved, volatile-rich granitic systems and related hydrothermal fluids. Their transport and enrichment results from a combination of melt- and fluid-driven processes. To evaluate the relative importance of these processes, we propose to combine the study of natural and synthetic fluid inclusions (FIs). Natural FIs occurring in early (associated with cassiterite) to late hydrothermal (associated with wolframite) quartz of the Argemela magmatic-hydrothermal system (Central Portugal) are mainly of aqueous (average XH2O = 0.94±0.04) L+V±S type. Raman spectrometry revealed an evolution from V-rich CO2-CH4-N2 to L-rich CO2±N2-CH4 inclusions through the transition and graphite is present in several early inclusions, suggesting relatively reduced conditions and a potential inheritance from the source. In addition, and because further work is needed to understand the fluid/melt partitioning of Sn and W, several experiments were conducted at 700 and 800°C, 200MPa and variable fO2 and salinities to synthetize FIs. A synthetic glass was produced to mimic the major element composition of the Argemela highly peraluminous intrusion and concentrations of W, Sn, P and Li were varied. Inclusion-free quartz were used to trap the fluids. First results prove the feasibility of the study. Microthermometry and LA-ICP-MS analyses are in progress for both natural and synthetic FIs.

International audience; Geological processes leading to lithium-rich rare metal (RM) pegmatites and granites remain poorly constrained. To acknowledge geological processes related to Li-rich melt generation, we applied complementary approaches in the Montagne Noire (MN) and in the Monts d’Ambazac (MA). In the MN, the mineralogy of pegmatite clusters depends of the nature of the migmatitic host rock. Geostatistical studies demonstrate that pegmatite clusters are scattered and do not appear randomly. Lithium isotopes tracing (7Li, ‰) show that the mineralized pegmatites are not fractionated and display likely a crustal signature. Rb/Sr dating on lepidolites shows that their emplacements are synchronous with regional partial melting. In MA, structural studies and 3D modelling suggest the presence of an anatectic dome masked by a granite. Geostatistic studies demonstrate that emplacement of pegmatite clusters are controlled by normal faulting. Lithium isotopes show that the mineralized pegmatites are not fractionated and have a crustal signature. Rb/Sr dating on lepidolites show that pegmatite emplacement postdates the granite emplacement.A compilation of RM intrusions in France has been conducted in the present work and shows that: i) they are usually located in or along antiformal structures; ii) the core of antiformal structures consists of migmatites, amphibolite-grade metasediments or anatectic granites; iii) RM granites are spatially associated with major faults; iv) Li-rich RM pegmatites are absent in the case of LP-HT partial melting. These results point to an anatectic origin of RM pegmatite fields with a strong tectonic control of the intrusions near migmatitic domes. Then, the presence of RM pegmatite indicates presence of an underlying partial melting zone which should be more distal in the case of a granite. Moreover, the absence of Li-rich intrusions in the case of LP melting conditions suggests that pressure has a key role in magma enrichment processes during partial melting.

Soluble fragments of peptidoglycan called muropeptides are released from the cell wall of bacteria as part of their metabolism or as a result of biological stresses. These compounds trigger immune responses in mammals and plants. In bacteria, they play a major role in the induction of antibiotic resistance. The development of efficient methods to produce muropeptides is, therefore, desirable both to address their mechanism of action and to design new antibacterial and immunostimulant agents. Herein, we engineered the peptidoglycan recycling pathway of Escherichia coli to produce N‐acetyl‐β‐D‐glucosaminyl‐(1→4)‐1,6‐anhydro‐N‐acetyl‐β‐D‐muramic acid (GlcNAc‐anhMurNAc), a common precursor of Gram‐negative and Gram‐positive muropeptides. Inactivation of the hexosaminidase nagZ gene allowed the efficient production of this key disaccharide, providing access to Gram‐positive muropeptides through subsequent chemical peptide conjugation. E. coli strains deficient in both NagZ hexosaminidase and amidase activities further enabled the in vivo production of Gram‐negative muropeptides containing meso‐diaminopimelic acid, a rarely available amino acid.

Circadian disruptions, including exposure to constant light, are known to produce behavioral and physiological issues. However, sex differences exist in how those problems manifest, as males tend to have increased susceptibility to the negative consequences of circadian disruption. As gonadal hormones play a role in circadian timekeeping, we decided to investigate whether ovariectomized C57BL6/J mice would exhibit increased behavioral and physiological sensitivity to constant light compared to female mice with intact estrogen circulation. Mice, half of which underwent an ovariectomy and the other half received sham surgery, were then placed in either constant light or a 12:12 light-dark cycle. After six weeks of photoperiod exposure, we measured their circadian locomotor activity, anxiety-like behaviors and physiological responses. Mice which underwent ovariectomy and placed into constant light experienced altered glucose levels and reduced robustness of the circadian rhythm, with some becoming arrhythmic, compared to sham surgery animals in constant light. Additionally, ovariectomy led to delayed circadian activity onsets and reduced both home-cage and novelty-induced activity. Meanwhile, constant light produced increases to ambulatory activity in the behavioral assays and reduced circadian home-cage activity. These results indicate that removal of the ovaries can mediate the circadian, behavioral, and physiological responses to continuous light. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

[SDU.STU.AG]Sciences of the Universe [physics]/Earth Sciences/Applied geology - Abstract
International audience; Geological processes that lead to lithium-caesium-tantalum-rich pegmatites remains poorly constrained and understood. This type of rare-metal pegmatites, which sometimes constitutes economic Li±Sn±Ta±Be deposits, are generally encountered in the vicinity of large pegmatite fields frequently focused on migmatitic areas. Two distinct models for pegmatitic melt generation are proposed:1-products of the end-of-crystallization melts of fractionated granites; or2-products of low-rate partial melting of metasedimentary rocks.In order to constrain geological processes related to pegmatitic melt generation, we applied several approaches (field work, statistical spatial analyses, mineralogical, geochemical and isotopic studies) on two well-known areas hosting rare-metal and barren pegmatite fields: 1) the Montagne Noire migmatitic dome; and 2) the Ambazac Mounts.In the Montagne Noire migmatitic area, the mineralogy of pegmatite clusters mimics the host-rocks with biotite-bearing pegmatites mainly hosted by migmatitic paragneisses and muscovite-bearing pegmatites mainly hosted by migmatitic orthogneisses. statistical spatial analyses studies demonstrate that pegmatite clusters are scattered in the center of the dome and do not appear randomly. Lithium isotopes show that the mineralized pegmatites are not fractionated and have likely a crustal signature. Rb/Sr dating on lepidolites shows that pegmatite emplacements are synchronous with the regional partial melting. Secondly, in the Ambazac mounts area, structural studies and 3D modelling suggest that this area may correspond to an anatectic dome masked by a granite, where pegmatite clusters are hosted by the Saint-Sylvestre granite. This granite crops on the border of the dome. Statistical spatial analyses studies demonstrate that emplacement of pegmatite clusters are controlled by normal faulting. Lithium isotopes show that the mineralized pegmatites are not fractionated and have also a crustal signature. Rb/Sr dating on lepidolites shows that pegmatite emplacement postdates the granite emplacement and is coeval with a late regional partial melting event. Following this, a compilation of the geology of rare-metal pegmatites fields of France has been conducted. This compilation underlines several common features between the distinct pegmatites fields: i) they are usually located in or along antiformal structures; ii) the core of antiformal structures consists of migmatites if erosion level is sufficient, otherwise the core consists of metasedimentary rocks or is occupied by anatectic granites; iii) the highest density of pegmatites occurs mainly in migmatites; iv) rare-metal pegmatites seem to be absent in the case of LP-HT partial melting. Thus, these results point to an anatectic origin of pegmatite fields with a strong tectonic control of pegmatite cluster emplacements above migmatitic domes. Then, the presence of pegmatite indicates presence of an underlying partial melting zone. Moreover, the absence of mineralized pegmatites in the case of low-pressure melting conditions suggests that pressure has a key role in magma enrichment processes during partial melting.

Rare metal granites result from the crystallization of highly evolved magmas enriched in volatiles and fluxing elements (F, Li, P, B) and in metals such as Sn, Nb, Ta and W. In the Western Europe Variscan belt, these granites are attributed to a late orogenic episode of rare metal magmatism. Since the 60’s, numerous studies have focused on the specific geochemical signature of rare metal granites and several models have been proposed for their genesis. However, several questions remain and, in particular, the context and mechanisms of magma emplacement have been only rarely addressed. In order to build a comprehensive understanding of magmatic, hydrothermal and tectonic processes and mechanisms responsible for (i) rare metal magma generation, (ii) magma emplacement and geometry, (iii) specific geochemical signature and metal enrichment, a multi-approach and multi-scale study has been performed on the example of the rare metal granite of Argemela (Central Iberian Zone, Portugal). It has been complemented by an experimental study on the genesis of rare metal magmas. Results of the structural analysis highlighted the special structural context of emplacement of the Argemela intrusion. Several criteria suggest a fast vertical and channelled magma ascent up to shallow subvolcanic levels. The petrological and geochemical study of the granite and related mineralization allow the identification of key events and processes involved during the magmatic-hydrothermal transition. Mechanisms of concentration/transportation and deposition of metals have been also specified. The experimental study indicates that a single step low degree partial melting is not efficient enough to produce rare metal magmas, since most are sequestered into the restite. However, remelting of enriched restitic assemblages, a mechanism which remains to be tested, could well produce the required rare metal concentrations. Finally, this study demonstrates the necessity to combine several approaches, since processes and mechanisms are interrelated in these mineralized systems.; Les granites à métaux rares sont issus de la cristallisation de magmas très évolués enrichis en volatiles et fondants (F, Li, P, B) et en métaux tels que Sn, Nb, Ta et W. Dans la chaîne Varisque d’Europe de l’Ouest, ils résultent d’un magmatisme tardi-orogénique spécifique. Depuis les années 60, de nombreuses études se sont intéressées à la signature géochimique de ces granites et différents modèles de genèse ont pu être proposés. Malgré cela, plusieurs questions subsistent; le contexte et les mécanismes de mise en place de ces granites particuliers ne sont que rarement abordés. Afin d’avoir une vision complète des processus et mécanismes responsables de (i) la genèse des magmas à métaux rares, (ii) la géométrie et la mise en place de ces granites, (iii) leur signature géochimique et leur enrichissement en métaux, une étude multi-approches et multi-échelles a été menée sur l’exemple du granite à métaux rares d’Argemela (Zone Centro-Ibérique, Portugal). Elle a été complétée par une étude expérimentale portant sur la genèse des magmas. Les résultats de l’étude structurale montrent que l’intrusion d’Argemela se met en place dans un contexte particulier. Plusieurs critères suggèrent une remontée verticale rapide et chenalisée du magma jusqu’à un niveau très superficiel, subvolcanique. L’étude pétrologique et géochimique du granite et des minéralisations associées a permis de mettre en évidence les évènements clés et les processus mis en jeu durant la transition magmatique-hydrothermale. Ceci a également permis d’appréhender les processus de concentration/transport des métaux et les mécanismes de dépôt des minéralisations. L’étude expérimentale indique qu’un seul stade de fusion partielle à faible taux ne permet pas de générer des magmas suffisamment enrichis en métaux. Cependant, un mécanisme de refusion de restites enrichies, qui reste encore à tester, pourrait produire les concentrations en métaux requises. Enfin, cette étude démontre la nécessité de combiner les approches car l’ensemble des processus sont interdépendants dans ce type de systèmes minéralisés.

PSEUDOMONAS aeruginosa , *BIOSYNTHESIS , *DENITRIFICATION , *UBIQUINONES , *BENZOQUINONES , *DIVISION of labor - Abstract
Many proteobacteria, such as Escherichia coli, contain two main types of quinones: benzoquinones, represented by ubiquinone (UQ) and naphthoquinones, such as menaquinone (MK), and dimethyl-menaquinone (DMK). MK and DMK function predominantly in anaerobic respiratory chains, whereas UQ is the major electron carrier in the reduction of dioxygen. However, this division of labor is probably not very strict. Indeed, a pathway that produces UQ under anaerobic conditions in an UbiU-, UbiV-, and UbiT-dependent manner has been discovered recently in E. coli. Its physiological relevance is not yet understood, because MK and DMK are also present in E. coli. Here, we established that UQ9 is the major quinone of Pseudomonas aeruginosa and is required for growth under anaerobic respiration (i.e. denitrification). We demonstrate that the ORFs PA3911, PA3912, and PA3913, which are homologs of the E. coli ubiT, ubiV, and ubiU genes, respectively, are essential for UQ9 biosynthesis and, thus, for denitrification in P. aeruginosa. These three genes here are called ubiTPa, ubiVPa, and ubiUPa. We show that UbiVPa accommodates an iron-sulfur [4Fe-4S] cluster. Moreover, we report that UbiUPa and UbiTPa can bind UQ and that the isoprenoid tail of UQ is the structural determinant required for recognition by these two Ubi proteins. Since the denitrification metabolism of P. aeruginosa is believed to be important for the pathogenicity of this bacterium in individuals with cystic fibrosis, our results highlight that the O2-independent UQ biosynthetic pathway may represent a target for antibiotics development tomanage P. aeruginosa infections.

Rotational spectra of small-sized (H2)N-OCS clusters with N=2–7 were measured using a pulsed-jet Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. These include spectra of pure (para-H2)N-OCS clusters, pure (ortho-H2)N-OCS clusters, and mixed ortho-H2 and para-H2 containing clusters. The rotational lines of ortho-H2 molecules containing clusters show proton spin-proton spin hyperfine structure, and the pattern evolves as the number of ortho-H2 molecules in the cluster increases. Various isotopologues of the clusters were investigated, including those with O13CS, OC33S, OC34S, and O13C34S. Nuclear quadrupole hyperfine structures of rotational transitions were observed for 33S (nuclear spin quantum number I=3/2) containing isotopologues. The 33S nuclear quadrupole coupling constants are compared to the corresponding constant of the OCS monomer and those of the HeN-OCS clusters. The assignment of the number of solvating hydrogen molecules N is supported by the analyses of the proton spin-proton spin hyperfine structures of the mixed clusters, the dependence of line intensities on sample conditions (pressure and concentrations), and the agreement of the (para-H2)N-OCS and (ortho-H2)N-OCS rotational constants with those from a previous infrared study [J. Tang and A. R. W. McKellar, J. Chem. Phys. 121, 3087 (2004)]. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

National audience; Les pegmatites sont des objets crustaux d’origine magmatiqueaux caractéristiques exceptionnelles : il s’agit toujours d’amasd’injections de très petits volumes enrichis à extrêmement enrichisen fluides et éléments incompatibles par rapport aux granitescrustaux. Leur variabilité géochimique et les différents contextesdans lesquels on peut les observer font des pegmatites des objetsd’intérêt tout particulier du point de vue du traçage de l’histoiredes circulations magmatiques et des fluides au travers de la croûte.Cependant, les processus de genèse, migration et mise en place deschamps de pegmatites restent mal connus, ceci étant illustré pardeux modèles diamétralement opposés : (i) les pegmatites dérivantd’un processus de fractionnement long à partir d’une chambremagmatique moins fractionnée et considérée être la source de cesliquides granitiques, (ii) les magmas formant les pegmatites directementextraits de sources de fusion partielle de bas taux dansla croûte continentale ; les mécanismes d’extraction, de remontéeet de mise en place des pegmatites devant alors fortement êtrecontrôlés par la localisation de la déformation dans la croûte continentale.Nous développons ici une approche d’analyse spatiale statistiquesur la répartition de pegmatites dans plusieurs champs de la ChaîneVarisque. En effet, alors que l’analyse des distributions spatialesd’objets en carte est souvent restreinte à une analyse purementvisuelle, des outils et méthodes de cartographie numérique permettentde quantifier les tendances de répartition ou d’associationspatiale entre objets. Dans le détail, les objets cartographiquesd’intérêt sont considérés comme jeu de données d’apprentissage.Différents calculs de paramètres sont alors possibles pour quantifierleur répartition cartographique et en particulier leur degré deregroupement/dispersion sur une gamme d’échelles continue.Un second objectif consiste à quantifier le degré de recouvrementou de proximité des pegmatites avec les granites et/ou les structures.Même si ces relations spatiales peuvent parfois paraîtreévidentes à la simple lecture d’une carte, les configurations cartographiquesne permettent pas toujours de bien appréhender lesassociations spatiales. Différents outils d’analyse spatiale peuventêtre appliqués afin de pouvoir formaliser la quantification du degréd’association entre les objets cartographiques.Les résultats montrent une caractéristique des pegmatites enrichiesen Li à former des regroupements à plusieurs échellescomme dans le champ de Barroso-Alvão (Portugal). En outre,la dispersion cartographique et l’alignement des corps pegmatitiquesminéralisés des Monts d’Ambazac (France) montrent uncontrôle clair de structures régionales.

- Abstract
The rotational spectra of seven isotopomers of XeCuF and eight isotopomers of XeCuCl have been measured in the range of 7-22 GHz using a pulsed jet cavity Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. The molecules were prepared by laser ablation of a Cu metal rod with a pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 1064 nm and allowing the plasma to react with appropriate precursors (Xe and SF6 or CI2) entrained in a carrier gas of Ar. Rotational constants, centrifugal distortion constants, internuclear distances, vibration frequencies, and Xe, Cu and CI hyperfme coupling constants have been evaluated. The Xe-Cu bonds are short and the molecules are rigid. The 1 3 1Xe nuclear quadrupole coupling constants in both XeCuF and XeCuCl are large (-87.8 and -81.4 MHz, respectively). The Cu nuclear quadrupole coupling constants differ radically from those of uncomplexed CuF and CuCl molecules. Ab initio calculations have supported the experimental results with short NgM bonds and rigid molecules. Mulliken populations and MOLDEN plots have also been calculated and both are consistent with strong interactions between the noble gas and the noble metal. The local energy densities were calculated to be negative and indicate the presence of a covalent XeCu bond. Both experimental and theoretical results are consistent with those reported earlier for other noble gas - noble metal halide molecules. The evidence is convincing for chemical bonding present between the noble gas and the noble metal in all NgMX molecules.

Rotational spectra of the H2-HCCCN complex were studied using a pulsed-nozzle Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. Complexes containing the main and several minor isotopologues of cyanoacetylene (HCCC13 N, DCCCN, and various 13C containing isotopologues) and the two spin isomers of the H2 molecule (paraH2 and orthoH2) were investigated. Transitions of complexes with 13N and D containing isotopologues have nuclear quadrupole hyperfine structures, which were measured and analyzed Transitions of orthoH2 molecule containing complexes show additional hyperfine structures due to nuclear magnetic proton spin-proton spin coupling of the hydrogen nuclei in the H2 molecule. For orthoH2--HCCCN, both strong α- and weaker β-type transitions were measured and analyzed using a semirigid asymmetric rotor model For the paraH2-HCCCN complex, only α-type transitions could be observed. The dimer complexes are floppy and have near T-shaped structures. Intermoiecular interaction potential energy surfaces were calculated for H2--HCCCN using the coupled-duster method with single and double excitations and noniterative inclusion of triple excitations [CCSD(T)]. Three orientations of the hydrogen molecule within the complex were considered. Equal weighting of the surfaces corresponding to the three hydrogen orientations provided an averaged potential energy surface. Bound-state rotational energy levels supported by the surfaces were determined for the different hydrogen orientations, as well as for the averaged surface. Simple scaling of the surfaces improved the agreement with the experimental results and produced surfaces with near spectroscopic accuracy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Exposure to artificial light during the night is known to promote disruption to the biological clock, which can lead to impaired mood and metabolism. Metabolic hormone secretion is modulated by the circadian pacemaker and recent research has shown that hormones such as insulin and leptin can also directly affect behavioral outcomes and the circadian clock. In turn, obesity itself is known to modulate the circadian rhythm and alter emotionality. This study investigated the behavioral and metabolic effects of constant light exposure in two models of obesity - a leptin null mutant (OB) and diet-induced obesity via high-fat diet. For both experiments, mice were placed into either a standard Light:Dark cycle (LD) or constant light (LL) and their circadian locomotor rhythms were continuously monitored. After 10 weeks of exposure to their respective lighting conditions, all mice were subjected to an open field assay to assess their explorative behaviors. Their metabolic hormone levels and inflammation levels were also measured. Behaviorally, exposure to constant light led to increased period lengthening and open field activity in the lean mice compared to both obesity models. Metabolically, LL led to increased cytokine levels and poorer metabolic outcomes in both lean and obese mice, sometimes exacerbating the metabolic issues in the obese mice, independent of weight gain. This study illustrates that LL can produce altered behavioral and physiological outcomes, even in lean mice. These results also indicate that obesity induced by different reasons can lead to shortened circadian rhythmicity and exploratory activity when exposed to chronic light., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare no competing financial interests., (Copyright © 2024.

- Abstract
Opioid use disorder (OUD) has emerged as a severe, ongoing public health emergency. Current, frontline addiction treatment strategies fail to produce lasting abstinence in most users. This underscores the lasting effects of chronic opioid exposure and emphasizes the need to understand the molecular mechanisms of drug seeking and taking, but also how those alterations persist through acute and protracted withdrawal. Here, we used RNA sequencing in post-mortem human tissue from males (n=10) and females (n=10) with OUD and age and sex-matched comparison subjects. We compared molecular alterations in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) between humans with OUD and rodent models across distinct stages of opioid use and withdrawal (acute and prolonged) using differential gene expression and network-based approaches. We found that the molecular signature in the NAc of females with OUD mirrored effects seen in the NAc of female mice at all stages of exposure. Conversely, males with OUD showed strong overlap in expression profile with rats in acute withdrawal. Co-expression networks involved in post-transcriptional modification of RNA and epigenetic modification of chromatin state. This study provides fundamental insight into the converging molecular pathways altered by opioids across species. Further, this work helps to disentangle which alterations observed in humans with OUD are driven by acute drug exposure and which alterations are consequences of chronic exposure.

Many proteobacteria, such as Escherichia coli , contain two main types of quinones: benzoquinones, represented by ubiquinone (UQ) and naphthoquinones, such as menaquinone (MK), and dimethyl-menaquinone (DMK).
