In this study, based on the comprehensive evaluation theory of fuzzy membership function, 5-, 10-, 15-, 20-, and 25-year-old Populus cathayana and Populus cathayana+Picea crassifolia forests at the eastern edge of the Gonghe Basin in Qinghai Province were investigated and four indicators that can reflect the basic characteristics of the community, namely, population renewal potential, forest soil fertility, forest productivity, and species diversity, were selected to build an evaluation model for forest community stability. The results indicated that the regeneration potential of the P. cathayana+P. crassifolia forest was higher than that of the P. cathayana forest. Planting P. crassifolia in a 25-year-old P. cathayana forest increased the content of available phosphorus, available potassium in the 0-40 cm soil, and organic matter in the 0-60 cm soil of the forest. Mixed planting enriched the canopy structure, whereas replanting enhanced the biomass of the tree layer. The competitive advantage of trees was greater than that of shrubs. As the forest age increased, the biomass growth rate of the underground part of the tree layer in the P. cathayana+P. crassifolia forest was greater than that of the aboveground part. As the habitat in the forest improved, the underground competition effect of plants increased and allocation of biomass in the underground part increased. The 25-year-old P. cathayana+P. crassifolia forest had the highest species richness as well as diversity index and dominance of the understory herb layer. The stability of the community in different restoration years was the highest in the 25-year-old P. cathayana+P. crassifolia forest, and the evaluation results were consistent with the development of the local P. cathayana forest. Mature P. crassifolia can provide a stable reproductive strategy for positive succession and sustainable development of the community, enabling it to develop a near-natural forest structure. The first generation protection forest built with P. cathayana clone cuttings at the east edge of the Gonghe Basin and similar habitats suggested that replanting of local tree species can improve community stability,achieve natural community development.

Objective To investigate the attitudes and influencing factors of transplantation-related populations towards kidney xenotransplantation. Methods From June 2022 to January 2023, stratified random sampling was performed from patients awaiting kidney transplantation, patients after kidney transplantation, patients' relatives and medical students. Four hundred subjects were collected from each population and 1600 subjects were investigated using a self-designed questionnaire. Baseline data of the respondents, their attitudes towards kidney xenotransplantation and the reasons of rejecting kidney xenotransplantation were analyzed. The influencing factors of attitudes towards kidney xenotransplantation were also identified. Results A total of 1 493 valid questionnaires were collected, and the questionnaire retrieval rate was 93.31%. About 93.10% of the respondents accepted allogeneic kidney transplantation, and 66.78% had heard of kidney xenotransplantation. Seven hundred and ninety-five respondents suggested that they could accept kidney xenotransplantation "when kidney xenotransplantation and allogeneic kidney transplantation yielded the same results and risks". Six hundred and ninety-eight respondents indicated that they were "unable" or "uncertain" whether they could accept kidney xenotransplantation (χ² =16.409, P=0.001). Among these 698 respondents, the proportion of them who were willing to accept kidney xenotransplantation when they did not meet the conditions of allogeneic kidney transplantation was 10.9%. About 35.8% of respondents were willing to accept kidney xenotransplantation if it yielded less risk and better prognosis compared with allogeneic kidney transplantation. If the time of awaiting kidney xenotransplantation was shorter than that of allogeneic kidney transplantation, 21.2% were willing to accept kidney xenotransplantation. If the cost of kidney xenotransplantation was less than that of allogeneic kidney transplantation, 24.5% of them were willing to accept kidney xenotransplantation. The main reasons of rejecting kidney xenotransplantation included surgical risk and other unknown risks. Multivariate analysis showed that respondents residing in cities and towns for a long period of time, those who accept allogeneic kidney transplantation and those who have heard of kidney xenotransplantation showed more positive attitudes towards kidney xenotransplantation. Conclusions Different transplantation-related populations have different attitudes towards kidney xenotransplantation, and the overall attitudes are positive. Active promotion of kidney xenotransplantation research and carrying out relevant popular science education contribute to improving public attitudes towards the acceptance of kidney xenotransplantation.

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPAR) are members of the nuclear estrogen receptor family, and they are involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes in the human body and play important roles in cellular metabolism, inflammation, and cancer. At present, there are three known subtypes of PPAR, i.e., α, β/δ, and γ. Studies have shown that PPARs are highly expressed in the liver and are widely involved in various physiological and pathological activities such as liver energy metabolism, oxidative stress, and inflammation, and they are also closely associated with the progression of liver diseases. This article reviews the role of PPAR in common liver diseases such as viral hepatitis, metabolic associated fatty liver disease, cholestatic liver disease, liver fibrosis, and primary liver cancer, and the current status of their application in the treatment of liver diseases.

[Objective] The interaction between fine root distribution and soil environment of middle-aged Picea crassifolia forests was revealed, and the contribution factors of soil nutrients to fine root development under different mingling intensity were clarified in order to provide theoretical basis for the rehabilitation and management of natural forests in Qilian Mountains. Methods] The root samples were collected in F. crassi - folia middle-aged forests with different mingling intensities (0, 0.2, ().4, and ().6) by using soil coring method. The relations between root parameters (fine root biomass density, specific root length, specific root surface area, root surface area density and root length density) and soil properties (soil total nitrogen, total phosphorus, alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen, available phosphorous, available potassium and organic matter) were analyzed. [Results] The fine root biomass was concentrated in the upper 0一20 cm soil layer, and decreased with soil depth. Values of fine root biomass density, root length density, root surface area density, specific root length, and specific root surface area in the soil layer of ()--20 cm were significantly higher than those in 20一4() cm soil layer(p〈().()5). The fine root morphology indices of each soil layer of F. crassifolia forest were all peaked in the mingling of ().4. Total nitrogen, total phosphorus, available potassium and organic matter in each soil layer decreased with the increase of soil depth, while they peaked at the mingling of ().4. Tn the soil layer of 0一4() cm, there were the positive correlations between indices of fine root biomass fine root biomass density, root length density, root surface area density, specific root length, and specific root surface area and soil properties such as total nitrogen, total phosphorus, a 1 ka 1 i-hydro 1 yzab 1 e nitrogen, avaitable phosphorous, organic matter, available potassium. Conclusion] The change of fine root biomass density is mainly affected by the total nitrogen content, mixed F. crassifolia forest with mingling intensity of ().4 has remarkable fine root contribution and better soil fertility, which is more conducive to the development of community stability benefits.

The community of Picea crassifolia planted in the Populus cathayana forest in Huangshatou, Guinan County at the eastern edge of the Gonghe Basin in Qinghai Province in 2019 was taken as the research object, and the non-replanted vegetation community was compared. The structure, community composition, species diversity, and environmental factors in the forest were compared and analyzed. This was undertaken 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 years after afforestation in the dune land of the sandy land to analyze the short-term benefit for forest structure and species diversity from replanted in shelter forest in an alpine desert area. This study has also provided a theoretical basis for stability and sustainable development of the local shelter forest. The results have shown that the replanted forest biomass was significantly higher than the non-replanted forest, and that the 25-year-old Populus cathayana-Picea crassifolia mixed forest was the largest biomass. The Shannon-Wiener index for the shrub layer was the highest in the 20-year-old Populus cathayana-Picea crassifolia mixed forest (0.56), and the Simpson index was the highest in 15-year-old Populus cathayana- Picea crassifolia mixed forest (0.73). The Shannon-Wiener and Simpson index for the herb layer were the highest in the 25-year-old Populus cathayana-Picea crassifolia mixed forest (0.93, 0.53). After replanted, the humidity and soil moisture (10, 30 cm) in the forest were higher than those of the non-replanted forest (P>0.05). There were positive correlations between indices for species richness, Shannon-Wiener index, evenness index, Simpson index and average tree height, average diameter at breast height, canopy density, surface (10 cm), and deep (150, 200 cm) soil moisture content (P<0.05). In the future, Qinghai spruce can be replanted in the 25-year-old Populus cathayana forest during management of the protective forest with Populus cathayana as a pioneer tree. The sexual reproduction ability of native tree species can provide a stable reproductive strategy for positive succession of the vegetation community, which is conducive to sustainable and healthy development of the shelter forest.

Carbon monoxide (CO) is the main component of vehicle exhaust in highway tunnels, which is one of the important parameters for the design of ventilation in road tunnels. It is very necessary to predict the CO concentration accurately and quickly to provide a reference for tunnel ventilation system control and mitigating the concentration of CO timely and to ensure the health and safety of the people in the tunnel. At the same time, it is beneficial to the green and energy-saving operation of the tunnel. Based on the field monitoring data of the road tunnel, random forest (RF) model of CO concentration prediction was established with the four influencing factors, i. e., monitor position, traffic, vehicle speed, wind speed. The model was employed to predict the concentration of CO in a 3 300-long road tunnel and the predictive values were compared with the real values. The results show that the CO concentration prediction model based on Random Forest has good prediction accuracy, which can predict the concentration of CO accurately. The RMSE and R 2 of the testing dataset is 0. 497 4 and 0. 943 7, respectively, which is significantly better than those of the linear regression model and support vector machine (SVM) model. The prediction model can be extended to predict the CO concentration of another tunnel. The RMSE and R 2 of the validation dataset is 0. 909 5 and 0. 729 5, respectively. That is, the CO concentration in the tunnel can be predicted under the condition of known monitor position, traffic, vehicle speed, wind speed. The model provides a reference for tunnel ventilation system control or safety warning. The position of monitor point has the greatest influence on the CO concentration in the tunnel, and the CO gas concentration is the highest at the exit of the tunnel. With the increase of wind speed, the concentration of CO gas in the tunnel gradually decreases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To investigate the impact of METTL3 on EMT and invasion ability in colorectal cancer cells. Methods: TGFβ was used to induce EMT in HCT116 and SW480 cells. Wound scratch assay and Transwell-matrigeal assay were used to evaluate the invasion ability of CRC cells. qPCR was used to measure the expression of target genes. SiRNAs were used to knockdown METTL3 in CRC cells. Results: The healing area in the TGFβ treated cells was larger than control cells P<0.0001, while TGFβ plus METTL3 knockdown groups cells showed smaller healing area than TGFβ treated cells P<0.0001 . Transwell-Matrigeal showed the penetrated cells in the TGFβ treated cells was more than control cells P<0.0001, while TGFβ plus METTL3 knockdown groups cells showed less penetrated cells than TGFβ treated cells P<0.0001 . TGFβ treatment induced EMT, while expression of snail1, ZEB1, VIM and MET- TL3 was up-regulated and CHD1 was down-regulated. TGFβ plus METTL3 knockdown groups cells showed less expression of snail1 and ZEB1 than TGFβ treated cells. Conclusions: METTL3 plays key role in the TGFβ induced EMT. Knockdown of METTL3 can impair TGFβs effect, which provides novel target for blocking metastasis in CRC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective·To explore the potential key genes and the gene expression characteristics of microsatellite instability-high (MSI-H) colorectal cancer (CRC) with metastasis at the transcriptome level, and establish a metastasis prediction gene model. Methods·The transcriptome data of MSI-H CRC patients was obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas database. The patients were divided into metastatic group (21 patients) and non-metastatic group (42 patients). The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the two groups were analyzed by Gene Ontology (GO) and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) to annotate, and cluster DEGs and enrich the signaling pathways. STRING and Cytoscape were used to select the hub genes. Nomogram was drawn based on the selected DEGs. The cross validation of the model was performed by Bootstrap method. Survival analysis was done to explore the influences of each gene in the nomogram on progression-free survival (PFS) of MSI-H CRC. Results·A total of 245 DEGs were obtained from the metastatic group and non-metastatic group, among which 204 genes were up-regulated and 41 genes were down-regulated. GO analysis showed that DEGs were mainly clustered in ion transmembrane transport, chloride transmembrane transport and chloride channel activity in terms of biological process and molecular function. In terms of cellular component, DEGs were mainly clustered in extracellular region and extracellular space. GSEA showed that the neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction and metabolic pathways were enriched in the up-regulated genes. The top 10 hub genes in the protein-protein interaction network of the up-regulated genes were screened by Cytoscape. The metastasis prediction gene model, which was set up based on the top 10 DEGs with the lowest adjusted P value and high physiological relevance to tumor, had certain predictive efficiency [area under curve (AUC)=0.975 for training, AUC=0.920 for validation]. The expression levels of AC078993.1 and IGLJ2 (immunoglobulin lambda joining 2) were significantly negatively correlated with PFS of MSI-H CRC (P=0.011, P=0.005). Conclusion·The changes in ion channels and extracellular environment may have important impacts on metastasis of MSI-H CRC. Neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction and metabolic pathways may be two important signaling pathways for metastasis of MSI-H CRC.
