Abstract

Abstract The selective photoreduction of CO2 in aqueous media based on earth-abundant elements only, is today a challenging topic. Here we present the anchoring of discrete molecular catalysts on organic polymeric semiconductors via covalent bonding, generating molecular hybrid materials with well-defined active sites for CO2 photoreduction, exclusively to CO in purely aqueous media. The molecular catalysts are based on aryl substituted Co phthalocyanines that can be coordinated by dangling pyridyl attached to a polymeric covalent triazine framework that acts as a light absorber. This generates a molecular hybrid material that efficiently and selectively achieves the photoreduction of CO2 to CO in KHCO3 aqueous buffer, giving high yields in the range of 22 mmol g−1 (458 μmol g−1 h−1) and turnover numbers above 550 in 48 h, with no deactivation and no detectable H2. The electron transfer mechanism for the activation of the catalyst is proposed based on the combined results from time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy, in situ spectroscopies and quantum chemical calculations.

Abstract

Abstract Electron transfer (ET) is the fundamental redox process of life and element cycling. The ET distance is normally as short as nanometers or micrometers in the subsurface. However, the redox gradient in the subsurface is as long as centimeters or even meters. This gap triggers an intriguing question whether directional long-distance ET from reduced to oxidized zones exists along the redox gradient. By using electron-donating capacity variation as a proxy of ET, we show that ET can last over 10 cm along the redox gradient in sediment columns, through a directional long-distance ET chain from reduced to oxidized zones constituted by a series of short-distance electron hopping reactions. Microbial and chemical processes synergistically mediate the long-distance ET chain, with an estimated flux of 6.73 μmol e−/cm2 per day. This directional long-distance ET represents an overlooked but important “remote” source of electrons for local biogeochemical and environmental processes.

Abstract

Background The number of patients undergoing joint replacement procedures is continuously increasing. Tele-equipment is progressively being employed for postrehabilitation of total hip and knee replacements. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the experiences and requirements of patients undergoing total hip and knee arthroplasty who participate in telerehabilitation can contribute to the enhancement of telerehabilitation programs and the overall rehabilitation and care provided to this specific population. Objective To explore the needs and experiences of total hip and knee arthroplasty patients with telerehabilitation. Design Systematic review and qualitative synthesis. Methods Electronic databases PubMed, Web of Science, The Cochrane Library, Embase, CINAHL, Scopus, ProQuest, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, and SinoMed were systematically searched for information on the needs and experiences of telerehabilitation for patients with total hip arthroplasty and total knee arthroplasty in qualitative studies. The search period was from the creation of the database to March 2024. Literature quality was assessed using the 2016 edition of the Australian Joanna Briggs Institute Centre for Evidence-Based Health Care Quality Assessment Criteria for Qualitative Research. A pooled integration approach was used to integrate the findings inductively. Results A total of 11 studies were included and 4 themes were identified: the desire to communicate and the need to acquire knowledge; accessible, high-quality rehabilitation services; positive psychological experiences; the dilemmas of participating in telerehabilitation. Conclusions This study's findings emphasize that the practical needs and challenges of total hip and knee arthroplasty patients’ participation in telerehabilitation should be continuously focused on, and the advantages of telerehabilitation should be continuously strengthened to guarantee the continuity of patients’ postoperative rehabilitation and to promote their postoperative recovery.

Abstract

Abstract Objective We explored the dietary effects of replacing normal dietary staple foods with supplementary nutritional protein powder, dietary fiber, and fish oil on several metabolic parameters. We examined weight loss, glucose and lipid metabolism, and intestinal flora in obese individuals when compared with individuals on a reduced staple food low carbohydrate diet. Methods From inclusion and exclusion criteria, 99 participants (28 kg/m2 ≤ body mass index (BMI) ≤ 35 kg/m2) were recruited and randomly assigned to control and intervention 1 and 2 groups. Physical examinations and biochemical indices were performed/gathered before the intervention and at 4 and 13 weeks post intervention. After 13 weeks, feces was collected and 16s rDNA sequenced. Results After 13 weeks, when compared with controls, body weight, BMI, waist circumference, hip circumference, systolic blood pressure, and diastolic blood pressure values in intervention group 1 were significantly reduced. In intervention group 2, body weight, BMI, waist circumference, and hip circumference were significantly reduced. Triglyceride (TG) levels in both intervention groups were significantly reduced. Fasting blood glucose, glycosylated hemoglobin, glycosylated albumin, total cholesterol, and apolipoprotein B levels in intervention group 1 were decreased, while high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-c) decreased slightly. Glycosylated albumin, TG, and total cholesterol levels in intervention group 2 decreased, while HDL-c decreased slightly, High sensitive C-reactive protein, MPO, Ox-LDL, LEP, TGF-β1, IL-6, GPLD1, pro NT, GPC-4, and LPS levels in both intervention groups were lower when compared with controls. Adiponectin (ADPN) levels in intervention groups were higher when compared with controls. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) levels in intervention group 1 were lower when compared with controls. There is no obvious difference in α diversity and β diversity between intestinal flora of 3 groups. Among the first 10 species of Phylum, only the control group and the intervention group 2 had significantly higher Patescibacteria than the intervention group 1. Among the first 10 species of Genus, only the number of Agathobacter in intervention group 2 was significantly higher than that in control group and intervention group 1. Conclusions We showed that an LCD, where nutritional protein powder replaced some staple foods and dietary fiber and fish oil were simultaneously supplemented, significantly reduced weight and improved carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in obese individuals when compared with an LCD which reduced staple food intake.

Abstract

The purpose of this study was to preliminarily reveal the changes of ellagic acid in leaves of Rubus berries at different developmental stages. In this study, leaves of 21 varieties of blackberry, raspberry and the hybrids were used to extract the ellagic acid in the leaves by ultrasonic assisted solvent extraction method, and the content of ellagic acid was rapidly detected by UV spectrophotometry. On this basis, five varieties were selected to analyze and evaluate the relationship between antioxidant capacity, antioxidant content, carbohydrate content and ellagic acid content. The results showed that the content of ellagic acid in the tender leaves of blackberry and raspberry was higher, and it showed a downward trend with the development and aging of the leaves. The content of ellagic acid in the tender leaves of blackberry cv. 'Baosen' was the highest up to 39.622 mg/g, and the content of ellagic acid in the aging leaves of raspberry 'Haritez' was the lowest, which was 7.649 mg/g. Furthermore, the antioxidant capacity and antioxidant content of the leaves of the selected five varieties were analyzed. It was found that the change trend was similar to that of ellagic acid, while the change of carbohydrate content in the leaves was negatively correlated with that of ellagic acid. The results would provide some theoretical basis for the functional research and further development and utilization of ellagic acid in blackberry and raspberry leaves.

Abstract

Abstract Main goal of the JUNO experiment is to determine the neutrino mass ordering using a 20 kt liquid-scintillator detector. Its key feature is an excellent energy resolution of at least 3% at 1 MeV, for which its instruments need to meet a certain quality and thus have to be fully characterized. More than 20,000 20-inch PMTs have been received and assessed by JUNO after a detailed testing program which began in 2017 and elapsed for about four years. Based on this mass characterization and a set of specific requirements, a good quality of all accepted PMTs could be ascertained. This paper presents the performed testing procedure with the designed testing systems as well as the statistical characteristics of all 20-inch PMTs intended to be used in the JUNO experiment, covering more than fifteen performance parameters including the photocathode uniformity. This constitutes the largest sample of 20-inch PMTs ever produced and studied in detail to date, i.e. 15,000 of the newly developed 20-inch MCP-PMTs from Northern Night Vision Technology Co. (NNVT) and 5000 of dynode PMTs from Hamamatsu Photonics K. K.(HPK).

Abstract

The physics potential of detecting ^8 B solar neutrinos will be exploited at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), in a model-independent manner by using three distinct channels of the charged current (CC), neutral current (NC), and elastic scattering (ES) interactions. Due to the largest-ever mass of ^13 C nuclei in the liquid scintillator detectors and the expected low background level, ^8 B solar neutrinos are observable in the CC and NC interactions on ^13 C for the first time. By virtue of optimized event selections and muon veto strategies, backgrounds from the accidental coincidence, muon-induced isotopes, and external backgrounds can be greatly suppressed. Excellent signal-to-background ratios can be achieved in the CC, NC, and ES channels to guarantee the observation of the ^8 B solar neutrinos. From the sensitivity studies performed in this work, we show that JUNO, with 10 yr of data, can reach the 1 σ precision levels of 5%, 8%, and 20% for the ^8 B neutrino flux, ${\sin }^{2}{\theta }_{12}$ , and ${\rm{\Delta }}{m}_{21}^{2}$ , respectively. Probing the details of both solar physics and neutrino physics would be unique and helpful. In addition, when combined with the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory measurement, the world's best precision of 3% is expected for the measurement of the ^8 B neutrino flux.

Abstract

IntroductionGastric cancer is a highly heterogeneous malignant tumor of the digestive system. Anti-HER2 treatment can inhibit downstream signaling pathways and improve clinical treatment and outcomes in patients with HER2 protein overexpression. Currently, two standard methods for evaluating HER2 expression status are immunohistochemistry (IHC) and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). However, these low-throughput assays often produce discordant or equivocal results.MethodsIn this study, we presented a new HER2 protein detection method based on mass spectrometry selected reaction monitoring (MS-SRM) and validated the method. We conducted a retrospective study on 118 formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded (FFPE) tissues from patients with advanced gastric adenocarcinoma in northern China, and we compared the MS-SRM results with those from IHC and correlated them with FISH. ResultsWe established and validated the upper and lower detection limits (300-700 amol/μg) for abnormal HER2 protein expression in advanced gastric cancer. We also found that, among samples with mixed Lauren subtypes, those with a high level of HER2 expression had typical intestinal type features in pathology. DiscussionThis study demonstrated that the MS-SRM method can overcome the limitations and deficiencies of IHC, directly quantify the expression of HER2 protein in tumor cells and be used as a supplement to IHC. It has the potential to be used as a companion diagnosis for new drugs used to treat advanced gastric cancer. Large-scale clinical validation is required.

Abstract

Abstract We study damping signatures at the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO), a medium-baseline reactor neutrino oscillation experiment. These damping signatures are motivated by various new physics models, including quantum decoherence, ν 3 decay, neutrino absorption, and wave packet decoherence. The phenomenological effects of these models can be characterized by exponential damping factors at the probability level. We assess how well JUNO can constrain these damping parameters and how to disentangle these different damping signatures at JUNO. Compared to current experimental limits, JUNO can significantly improve the limits on τ 3/m 3 in the ν 3 decay model, the width of the neutrino wave packet σ x , and the intrinsic relative dispersion of neutrino momentum σ rel.

Abstract

Abstract The OSIRIS detector is a subsystem of the liquid scintillator filling chain of the JUNO reactor neutrino experiment. Its purpose is to validate the radiopurity of the scintillator to assure that all components of the JUNO scintillator system work to specifications and only neutrino-grade scintillator is filled into the JUNO Central Detector. The aspired sensitivity level of $$10^{-16}\hbox { g/g}$$ 10 - 16 g/g of $$^{238}\hbox {U}$$ 238 U and $$^{232}\hbox {Th}$$ 232 Th requires a large ( $$\sim 20\,\hbox {m}^3$$ ∼ 20 m 3 ) detection volume and ultralow background levels. The present paper reports on the design and major components of the OSIRIS detector, the detector simulation as well as the measuring strategies foreseen and the sensitivity levels to U/Th that can be reached in this setup.

Abstract

Abstract JUNO is a massive liquid scintillator detector with a primary scientific goal of determining the neutrino mass ordering by studying the oscillated anti-neutrino flux coming from two nuclear power plants at 53 km distance. The expected signal anti-neutrino interaction rate is only 60 counts per day (cpd), therefore a careful control of the background sources due to radioactivity is critical. In particular, natural radioactivity present in all materials and in the environment represents a serious issue that could impair the sensitivity of the experiment if appropriate countermeasures were not foreseen. In this paper we discuss the background reduction strategies undertaken by the JUNO collaboration to reduce at minimum the impact of natural radioactivity. We describe our efforts for an optimized experimental design, a careful material screening and accurate detector production handling, and a constant control of the expected results through a meticulous Monte Carlo simulation program. We show that all these actions should allow us to keep the background count rate safely below the target value of 10 Hz (i.e. ∼1 cpd accidental background) in the default fiducial volume, above an energy threshold of 0.7 MeV.

Abstract

Abstract Atmospheric neutrinos are one of the most relevant natural neutrino sources that can be exploited to infer properties about cosmic rays and neutrino oscillations. The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) experiment, a 20 kton liquid scintillator detector with excellent energy resolution is currently under construction in China. JUNO will be able to detect several atmospheric neutrinos per day given the large volume. A study on the JUNO detection and reconstruction capabilities of atmospheric $$\nu _e$$ ν e and $$\nu _\mu $$ ν μ fluxes is presented in this paper. In this study, a sample of atmospheric neutrino Monte Carlo events has been generated, starting from theoretical models, and then processed by the detector simulation. The excellent timing resolution of the 3” PMT light detection system of JUNO detector and the much higher light yield for scintillation over Cherenkov allow to measure the time structure of the scintillation light with very high precision. Since $$\nu _e$$ ν e and $$\nu _\mu $$ ν μ interactions produce a slightly different light pattern, the different time evolution of light allows to discriminate the flavor of primary neutrinos. A probabilistic unfolding method has been used, in order to infer the primary neutrino energy spectrum from the detector experimental observables. The simulated spectrum has been reconstructed between 100 MeV and 10 GeV, showing a great potential of the detector in the atmospheric low energy region.

Abstract

45.7% of Chinese patients with advanced lung adenocarcinoma were reported to harbour sensitizing epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) mutations. Limited therapeutic options are left for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) harbouring sensitizing EGFR mutations after failure of EGFR-tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) therapy and chemotherapy, finding effective options for them is an unmet clinic need. Herein we reported a case that till January 12, 2021, an 82-year-old female with sensitizing EGFR-mutant advanced lung adenocarcinoma received a surprising progression-free survival (PFS) benefit of over 21 months from the combination therapy of pembrolizumab and anlotinib after her failure of treatments of osimertinib, chemotherapy and anlotinib-monotherapy.

Abstract

Owing to the COVID-19 outbreak, sterilization of deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (DUV LEDs) has attracted increasing attention. Effectively improving the radiative recombination efficiency and mitigating the efficiency degradation, mainly caused by electron leakage and nonradiative recombination, have also emerged as two of the main issues to be addressed. In this study, a DUV LED epitaxial structure with a novel electron-blocking layer (EBL) is proposed. The DUV LED with a luminescence wavelength of ∼297 nm was formed by the stepwise variation of the Al component. Through the simulation and analysis of its performance parameters, we found that, compared to the conventional EBL structure, this new EBL structure not only reduces the electron leakage to the p-region effectively but also increases the hole injection into the active region, resulting in an increase in carrier concentration in the active region, a two-to-three-fold increase in the radiative recombination rate, and a 58% increase in the internal quantum efficiency, thus alleviating the efficiency droop and achieving a more efficient operation at high current densities.

Abstract

Background: Chemotherapy plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) regimen is one of the available approaches to mobilize peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPCs). It causes thrombocytopenia and delays leukapheresis. This study aimed to evaluate the role of recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) before mobilization chemotherapy in facilitating leukapheresis in patients with lymphoma. Methods: In this randomized open-label phase 2 trial, patients were randomly assigned in a 1:2 ratio to receive mobilization with rhTPO plus GCSF in combination with chemotherapy (the rhTPO plus GCSF arm) or GCSF alone in combination with chemotherapy (the GCSF alone arm). The recovery of neutrophils and platelets and the amount of platelet transfusion were monitored. Results: Thirty patients were enrolled in this study between March 2016 and August 2018. Patients in the rhTPO plus GCSF arm (n = 10) had similar platelet nadir after mobilization chemotherapy (P=0.878) and similar amount of platelet transfusion (median 0 vs. 1 unit, P=0.735) when compared with the GCSF alone arm (n = 20). On the day of leukapheresis, the median platelet count was 86 × 109/L (range 18–219) among patients who received rhTPO and 73 × 109/L (range 42–197) among those who received GCSF alone (P=0.982). After the use of rhTPO, the incidence of platelet count

Abstract

Abstract We present the calibration strategy for the 20 kton liquid scintillator central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). By utilizing a comprehensive multiple-source and multiple-positional calibration program, in combination with a novel dual calorimetry technique exploiting two independent photosensors and readout systems, we demonstrate that the JUNO central detector can achieve a better than 1% energy linearity and a 3% effective energy resolution, required by the neutrino mass ordering determination.

Abstract

Several dehydroabietylamine derivatives containing heterocyclic moieties such as thiophene and pyrazine ring were successfully synthesized. The antiproliferative activities of these thiophene-based Schiff-bases, thiophene amides, and pyrazine amides were investigated in vitro against Hela (cervix), MCF-7 (breast), A549 (lung), HepG2 (liver), and HUVEC (umbilical vein) cells by MTT assay. The toxicity of L1−L10 (IC50 = 5.92− >100 μM) was lower than L0 (1.27 μM) and DOX (4.40 μM) in every case. Compound L1 had higher anti-HepG2 (0.66 μM), anti-MCF-7 (5.33 μM), and anti-A549 (2.11 μM) and compound L3 had higher anti-HepG2 (1.63 μM) and anti-MCF-7 (2.65 μM) activities. Both of these compounds were recognized with high efficiency in apoptosis induction in HepG2 cells and intercalated binding modes with DNA. Moreover, with average IC50 values of 0.66 and 5.98 μM, L1 was nine times more effective at suppressing cultured HepG2 cells viability than normal cells (SI = 9). The relative tumor proliferation rate (T/C) was 38.6%, the tumor inhibition rate was up to 61.2%, which indicated that L1 had no significant toxicity but high anti-HepG2 activity in vivo. Thus, it may be a potential antiproliferation drug with nontoxic side effects.

Abstract

Blackberries have high nutritional value and strong biological activities, such as antiproliferative activity. Anthocyanins are important functional components in blackberries. We collected 25 kinds (lines) of blackberries from our nursery to investigate antiproliferative agents in natural foods. Among them, the Shuofeng variety had the highest anthocyanin content, with 2.54 mg/g of fresh fruit, which increased to 357.75 mg/g of dried powder through ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction and macroporous resin adsorption. Additional experiments showed that Shuofeng’s anthocyanin content had high anti-HepG2 activity in vitro and in vivo, as well as activity against Hela (68.62 μg/mL), HepG2 (55.85 μg/mL), MCF-7 (181.21 μg/mL), and A549 cells (82.01 μg/mL), as determined by MTT assay. It also had no apparent toxic effects. The combination of DDP and DOX significantly enhanced the antiproliferative activity of the four cell lines. The IC50 value of Shuofeng’s anthocyanin content combined with DOX in HepG2 cells was the lowest at only 0.08 μg/mL, indicating that the combination of drugs had additive and synergistic effects. Shuofeng’s anthocyanin content might intercalate into DNA and alter or destroy DNA, causing apoptosis and inhibiting cell proliferation. Our results show that blackberry anthocyanins can inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells and their possible mechanisms. However, we must study the deeper mechanism and explore its targeting effects in the future.

Abstract

Blueberries are rich in flavonoids, anthocyanins, phenolic acids, and other bioactive substances. Anthocyanins are important functional components in blueberries. We collected 65 varieties of blueberries to investigate their nutritional and functional values. Among them, Gardenblue had the highest anthocyanin content, with 2.59 mg/g in fresh fruit. After ultrasound-assisted solvent extraction and macroporous resin absorption, the content was increased to 459.81 mg/g in the dried powder. Biological experiments showed that Gardenblue anthocyanins (L1) had antiproliferative effect on cervical cancer cells (Hela, 51.98 μg/mL), liver cancer cells (HepG2, 23.57 μg/mL), breast cancer cells (MCF-7, 113.39 μg/mL), and lung cancer cells (A549, 76.10 μg/mL), and no apparent toxic effects were indicated by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, especially against HepG2 cells both in vitro and in vivo. After combining it with DDP (cisplatin) and DOX (doxorubicin), the antiproliferative effects were enhanced, especially when combined with DOX against HepG2 cells; the IC50 value was 0.02 μg/mL. This was further evidence that L1 could inhibit cell proliferation by inducing apoptosis. The detailed mechanism might be L1 interacting with DNA in an intercalation mode that changes or destroys DNA, causing apoptosis and inhibiting cell proliferation. The findings of this study suggest that L1 extract can be used as a functional agent against hepatoma carcinoma cells.

Abstract

Adolescent behavior is closely related to academic and long-term personal development, and adolescents are vulnerable to the influences from people around them. This study aimed to analyze the factors and mechanisms that influence the behavior of adolescents. It examines the impact of family, teachers, and peers on adolescent prosocial behavior and misconduct. Data were obtained from the China Education Panel Survey (CEPS) follow-up data (2014–2015 school year) and 7835 middle school student participants were used for analysis. Structural equation modeling (SEM) was used to explore the influence and mechanisms of family, teachers, and peers on the development of adolescent social behavior. The findings showed that parental relationships, parental discipline, teacher supervision, and positive peer behavior were positively associated with adolescent prosocial behaviors and reduced the incidence of delinquent behaviors, while frequent home–school contact was associated with misconduct (all p < 0.01). These results remained significant after controlling for gender, residence, only-child status, family financial situation, and paternal education. Significant others in an adolescent’s life play multiple essential roles in forming and developing adolescent behavior and in directly influencing them. To guide the prosocial behaviors of middle school students and reduce delinquent behavior, we should build harmonious parent—child, peer, and teacher–student relationships, teach according to their aptitudes, pay attention to particular groups and strengthen psychological health education to develop their self-esteem and self-confidence.

Abstract

Background: Graves’ disease (GD) is an autoimmune disease that affects more women than men. In our previous study, a potent bioactive androgen, 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) showed a protective effect against GD in female BALB/c mice. Evidence indicates that abnormal oxidative stress and immunosuppressive cytokines (TGF-β, IL-35) play critical roles in the pathogenesis and development of GD. The purpose of this research is to measure these cytokines and oxidative stress markers to explore potential protective mechanisms of DHT in a BALB/c mouse model of GD. Methods: GD was induced in female BALB/c mice by intramuscular injection of an adenovirus expressing the A-subunit of the TSH receptor (Ad-TSHR289). DHT or a matching placebo was injected every 3 days. Mice were sacrificed four weeks after the third virus immunization to obtain blood, thyroid and spleen for further analysis. Results: Thyroid hormones were significantly reduced in DHT treated GD mice. In addition, DHT attenuated thyroid oxidative injuries in GD mice, as shown by decreased total antioxidation capability (TAOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the level of malondialdehyde (MDA). The levels of immunosuppressive cytokines (TGF-β, IL-35) in DHT group were significant higher compared with the GD group. Conclusions: The results demonstrated that DHT could reduce the severity of GD in female BALB/c mice by regulating oxidative stress. The upregulation of immunosuppressive cytokines might be another important protective mechanism.

24. Mitochondrial Fission and Mitophagy Coordinately Restrict High Glucose Toxicity in Cardiomyocytes

Abstract

Hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Injured mitochondrial segments are separated by mitochondrial fission and eliminated by autophagic sequestration and subsequent degradation in the lysosome, a process termed mitophagy. However, it remains poorly understood how high glucose affects the activities of, and the relationship between, mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in cardiomyocytes. In this study, we determined the functional roles of mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in hyperglycemia-induced cardiomyocyte injury. High glucose (30 mM, HG) reduced mitochondrial connectivity and particle size and increased mitochondrial number in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes, suggesting an enhanced mitochondrial fragmentation. SiRNA knockdown of the pro-fission factor dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) restored mitochondrial size but did not affect HG toxicity, and Mdivi-1, a DRP1 inhibitor, even increased HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury, as shown by superoxide production, mitochondrial membrane potential and cell death. However, DRP1 overexpression triggered mitochondrial fragmentation and mitigated HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury, suggesting that the increased mitochondrial fission is beneficial, rather than detrimental, to cardiomyocytes cultured under HG conditions. This is in contrast to the prevailing hypothesis that mitochondrial fragmentation mediates or contributes to HG cardiotoxicity. Meanwhile, HG reduced mitophagy flux as determined by the difference in the levels of mitochondria-associated LC3-II or the numbers of mitophagy foci indicated by the novel dual fluorescent reporter mt-Rosella in the absence and presence of the lysosomal inhibitors. The ability of HG to induce mitochondrial fragmentation and inhibit mitophagy was reproduced in adult mouse cardiomyocytes. Overexpression of Parkin, a positive regulator of mitophagy, or treatment with CCCP, a mitochondrial uncoupler, induced mitophagy and attenuated HG-induced cardiomyocyte death, while Parkin knockdown had opposite effects, suggesting an essential role of mitophagy in cardiomyocyte survival under HG conditions. Strikingly, Parkin overexpression increased mitochondrial fragmentation, while DRP1 overexpression accelerated mitophagy flux, demonstrating a reciprocal activation loop that controls mitochondrial fission and mitophagy. Thus, strategies that promote the mutual positive interaction between mitochondrial fission and mitophagy while simultaneously maintain their levels within the physiological range would be expected to improve mitochondrial health, alleviating hyperglycemic cardiotoxicity.

Abstract

Abstract Several experimental collaborations worldwide intend to test sterile neutrino models by measuring the disappearance of antineutrinos produced via isotope decay at rest (IsoDAR). The most advanced of these proposals have very similar setups, in which a proton beam strikes a target yielding neutrons which are absorbed by a high isotopic purity $${}^7\hbox {Li}$$ 7 Li converter, yielding $${}^8\hbox {Li}$$ 8 Li whose resulting decay yields the antineutrinos. In this note, we use FLUKA and GEANT4 simulations to investigate three proposed modifications of this standard proposal. In the first, the $${}^7\hbox {Li}$$ 7 Li is replaced with $${}^7\hbox {Li}$$ 7 Li compounds including a deuterium moderator. In the second, a gap is placed between the target and the converter to reduce the neutron bounce-back. Finally, we consider cooling the converter with liquid nitrogen. We find that these modifications can increase the antineutrino yield by as much as 50%. The first also substantially reduces the quantity of high purity $${}^7\hbox {Li}$$ 7 Li which is needed.

Abstract

Nanoscale oxide layer protected semiconductor photoelectrodes show enhanced stability and performance for solar fuels generation, although the mechanism for the performance enhancement remains unclear due to a lack of understanding of the microscopic interfacial field and its effects. Here, we directly probe the interfacial fields at p-GaP electrodes protected by n-TiO2 and its effect on charge carriers by transient reflectance spectroscopy. Increasing the TiO2 layer thickness from 0 to 35 nm increases the field in the GaP depletion region, enhancing the rate and efficiency of interfacial electron transfer from the GaP to TiO2 on the ps time scale as well as retarding interfacial recombination on the microsecond time scale. This study demonstrates a general method for providing a microscopic view of the photogenerated charge carrier's pathway and loss mechanisms from the bulk of the electrode to the long-lived separated charge at the interface that ultimately drives the photoelectrochemical reactions.

Abstract

Background: Chemotherapy plus granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) regimen is one of the available approaches to mobilize peripheral blood progenitor cells (PBPCs). It causes thrombocytopenia and delays leukapheresis. This study aimed to evaluate the role of recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) before mobilization chemotherapy in facilitating leukapheresis in patients with lymphoma. Methods: In this randomized open-label phase 2 trial, patients were randomly assigned in a 1:2 ratio to receive mobilization with rhTPO plus GCSF in combination with chemotherapy (the rhTPO plus GCSF arm) or GCSF alone in combination with chemotherapy (the GCSF alone arm). The recovery of neutrophils and platelets and the amount of platelet transfusion were monitored. Results: Thirty patients were enrolled in this study between March 2016 and August 2018. Patients in the rhTPO plus GCSF arm (n = 10) had similar platelet nadir after mobilization chemotherapy (P=0.878) and similar amount of platelet transfusion (median 0 vs. 1 unit, P=0.735) when compared with the GCSF alone arm (n = 20). On the day of leukapheresis, the median platelet count was 86 × 109/L (range 18–219) among patients who received rhTPO and 73 × 109/L (range 42–197) among those who received GCSF alone (P=0.982).

Abstract

To identify candidate neuroimaging and genetic biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other brain disorders, especially for little-investigated brain diseases, we advocate a data-driven approach which incorporates an adaptive classifier ensemble model acquired by integrating Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Ensemble Learning (EL) with Genetic Algorithm (GA), i.e., the CNN-EL-GA method, into Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS). Above all, a large number of CNN models as base classifiers were trained using coronal, sagittal, or transverse magnetic resonance imaging slices, respectively, and the CNN models with strong discriminability were then selected to build a single classifier ensemble with the GA for classifying AD, with the help of the CNN-EL-GA method. While the acquired classifier ensemble exhibited the highest generalization capability, the points of intersection were determined with the most discriminative coronal, sagittal, and transverse slices. Finally, we conducted GWAS on the genotype data and the phenotypes, i.e., the gray matter volumes of the top ten most discriminative brain regions, which contained the ten most points of intersection. Six genes of PCDH11X/Y, TPTE2, LOC107985902, MUC16 and LINC01621 as well as Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms, e.g., rs36088804, rs34640393, rs2451078, rs10496214, rs17016520, rs2591597, rs9352767 and rs5941380, were identified. This approach overcomes the limitations associated with the impact of subjective factors and dependence on prior knowledge while adaptively achieving more robust and effective candidate biomarkers in a data-driven way. The approach is promising to facilitate discovering effective candidate genetic biomarkers for brain disorders, as well as to help improve the effectiveness of identified candidate neuroimaging biomarkers for brain diseases.

Following the tracking-by-detection paradigm, we have developed an online piglet tracking network (OPTN) composed of a base network, a detection head and an association head. The unweaned piglets in video images were detected at the region-based detection head, and the piglet central locations were mapped onto the feature maps produced by the base network and extended network to form central feature vectors. Then the exhaustive central feature vector permutations were input to the affinity estimation network to generate an affinity matrix that accounted for the affinity between the video image pair detections. To make full use of the tracking history, we used the Hungarian algorithm to optimise affinity prediction with affinity accumulation and designed a distance-based tracking state adjustment strategy to correct false state prediction and recovered lost IDs. Our method achieved favourable tracking performance with an IDF1 score and MOTA of 96.55% and 97.04%, respectively, and an inference frame rate of 6.89 fps. Our method outperformed popular MOT methods, such as SORT, SST and CenterTrack, in short video clips and a long video episode. OPTN was robust against large illumination variations with a video rate as low as 1 fps. Our computer vision-based piglet tracking method may aid animal tracking-related behaviour analysis as well as piglet surveillance.

Abstract

In recent years, the prevalence and incidence of diabetes mellitus (DM) have increased sharply worldwide. In order to evaluate the effect of chromium supplementation on patients with type 2 diabetes, a meta-analysis was conducted by searching the relevant literature. Randomized controlled trials on the effects of chromium supplements on glucose metabolism or lipid profile in patients with type 2 diabetes were retrieved from multiple databases. Literature screening, quality evaluation, and data extraction were conducted according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and Review Manager 5.4.0 was used for data analysis. A total of 10 randomized controlled trials involving 509 patients were included, including 269 cases in the experimental group and 240 cases in the placebo control group. Statistical analysis was conducted on the glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), fasting plasma glucose (FPG), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and high-density lipoprotein (HDL) to evaluate the blood glucose and lipid levels. Meta-analysis results showed that the differences between the experimental group and the control group in only one indicator of HbA1c were statistically significant, while there were no statistically significant differences in other indicators. The use of chromium supplements can reduce the glycosylated hemoglobin of type 2 diabetic patients to a certain extent, but it cannot effectively improve the fasting blood glucose and blood lipid levels of type 2 diabetic patients.

Abstract

Aim The aim of the study was to compare the therapeutic strategies and prognostic factors of patients with primary intestinal diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (PI-DLBCL). Methods A total of 50 PI-DLBCL patients who accepted standard first-line treatment at National Cancer Center in China were included in this retrospective study. Survival analysis was performed to evaluate the prognostic risk factors. Results The 3-year overall survival (OS) and 3-year progression-free survival (PFS) for the entire group were 76.0% and 65.9%, respectively. Univariate analysis showed that B symptom, advanced Lugano stage, elevated LDH status, poor ECOG PS and immunochemotherapy alone were significantly correlated with a poor PFS. Elevated LDH status, poor ECOG PS, advanced Lugano stage, high IPI score and immunochemotherapy alone were significantly correlated with a poor OS. Multivariate analysis revealed that ECOG PS (P= 0.035; HR = 0.233; 95% CI, 0.060-0.905), LDH level (P = 0.010; HR = 0.223; 95% CI, 0.072-0.693) and surgery (P = 0.002; HR = 5.584; 95% CI, 1.883-16.563) were independent prognostic factors for OS. LDH level (P = 0.035; HR = 0.210; 95% CI, 0.049-0.894) and surgery (P = 0.003; HR = 6.410; 95% CI, 1.903-21.593) were independent risk factors for PFS in PI-DLBCL. R-CHOP immunochemotherapy combined surgery treatment was also associated with a lower rate of refractory/relapsed (R/R) disease (P = 0.004). Furthermore, stratified analysis revealed that partial resection or radical resection combined with immunochemotherapy had no significantly difference which affect OS (P = 0.338) and PFS (P = 0.207). Conclusion R-CHOP immunochemotherapy plus surgery was associated with a superior prognosis compared with R-CHOP alone in Chinese PI-DLBCL population.

38. Surface-State-Controlled Fluence-Dependent Apce Behavior of p-GaAs-TiO2-Pt Water Reduction Photocathode

Abstract

The demand for reform in energy production and reduction in carbon dioxide emission lays emphasis on the development and mechanistic study of photocatalytic water splitting photoelectrodes. Understanding the bottlenecks of the photoelectrochemical (PEC) conversion efficiency in photocatalytic water splitting systems is essential to impart guidance to material selection and photoelectrode design. Absorbed photon-to-current conversion efficiency (APCE), which represents the fraction of absorbed photons converted into electrons in photocurrents, is the key metric in the evaluation of PEC performance. A large portion of studies have reported an illumination fluence-independent APCE under continuous wave (CW) illumination with power densities around 10~100 mW/cm2, whereas few cases have reported the fluence-dependent APCE performance. In the present work, we observe a rarely reported fluence-dependent APCE performance in the p-GaAs/5 nm TiO2/2 nm Pt photocathode under a low-excitation intensity regime. The APCE reaches close to unity at 0.005 mW/cm2 and gradually decreases to 60% at 1 mW/cm2. However, a theoretical explanation for this fluence-dependent APCE reduction is not established. We develop a steady-state kinetic model with the least parameters to decipher such a phenomenon. In this model, the surface electrons in the GaAs/TiO2/Pt photocathode are consumed by three pathways: 1) transferred to redox active species in solution via the conduction band, 2) trapped into surface states that serve as the reaction sites, which competes with the electron-hole recombination at such surface states, and 3) directly recombining with the surface holes. The APCE decrease at higher illumination intensity is attributed to the increasing recombination between the GaAs holes and the TiO2 electrons caused by the saturation of surface sites. A detailed parametric survey shows that the interfacial electron transfer rate, ks, from the trap states to solution redox species is the only parameter that tunes the extent of the APCE reduction. With higher ks, APCE displays a smaller reduction in response to increasing fluences. Thus, the fluence-dependent feature of the APCE is an indicator that the surface reaction is the efficiency-determining step. Through this work, we establish a kinetic model for the semiconductor photoelectrode with catalyst layer and successfully explain the cause to the fluence-dependent APCE performance. These significant findings can be universally applied to address the function of catalytic layer (nanoparticle or molecular) and surface modifier in hybrid photoelectrode systems that exhibit fluence-dependent APCE.

39. Direct in Situ Observation of Surface Charge Accumulation Under Water Oxidation Conditions By Electric Field Induced Second Harmonic Generation Measurements

Author

Abstract

The water oxidation reaction is considered as the bottleneck and rate-determining step in photoelectrochemical water-splitting processes. To achieve efficient water oxidation on the photoanode, sufficient built-in potential on semiconductors under light illumination needs to be maintained. Herein, we introduced the in-situ Electric Field Induced Second Harmonic Generation (EFISH) technique to probe the change of built-in potential under the water oxidation reaction process of a single-crystal rutile TiO2 photoanode. Under the dark condition, parabolic relation between the second harmonic generation signal and applied potential is observed in TiO2 depletion region. Under UV illumination, the EFISH signal decreased compared to dark at the photocurrent saturation potential region. Change in the signal is attributed to the decrease of built-in potential in TiO2. The amount of built-in potential change increased with light illumination and saturated at 520 mV under 15mW/cm2 360 nm UV illumination in an unbuffered solution. This light-induced band edge unpinning effect can be explained by the accumulation of holes at surface states and surface protons at Helmholtz layer that are generated under illumination. Kinetic isotope EFISH experiments suggest that proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) is the rate-determining step in water oxidation process. Screening of built-in potential under illumination can be mitigated by adding buffer ions, suggesting that the rate-determining step can be altered by changing the solution microenvironment.

Abstract

The protein kinase mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) performs diverse cellular functions through 2 distinct multiprotein complexes, mTOR complex (mTORC)1 and 2. Numerous studies using rapamycin, an mTORC1 inhibitor, have implicated a role for mTORC1 in several types of heart disease. People with diabetes are more susceptible to heart failure. mTORC1 activity is increased in the diabetic heart, but its functional significance remains controversial. To investigate the role of mTORC1 in the diabetic heart, we crossed OVE26 type 1 diabetic mice with transgenic mice expressing a constitutively active mTOR (mTORca) or kinase-dead mTOR (mTORkd) in the heart. The expression of mTORca or mTORkd affected only mTORC1 but not mTORC2 activities, with corresponding changes in the activities of autophagy, a cellular degradation pathway negatively regulated by mTORC1. Diabetic cardiac damage in OVE26 mice was dramatically reduced by mTORca but exacerbated by mTORkd expression as assessed by changes in cardiac function, oxidative stress, and myocyte apoptosis. These findings demonstrated that the enhanced mTORC1 signaling in the OVE26 diabetic heart was an adaptive response that limited cardiac dysfunction, suggesting that manipulations that enhance mTORC1 activity may reduce diabetic cardiac injury, in sharp contrast to the results previously obtained with rapamycin.-Xu, X., Kobayashi, S., Timm, D., Huang, Y., Zhao, F., Shou, W., Liang, Q.

Abstract

Doxorubicin (Dox) is a widely used antineoplastic agent that can cause heart failure. Dox cardiotoxicity is closely associated with mitochondrial damage. Mitochondrial fission and mitophagy are quality control mechanisms that normally help maintain a pool of healthy mitochondria. However, unchecked mitochondrial fission and mitophagy may compromise the viability of cardiomyocytes, predisposing them to cell death. Here, we tested this possibility by using Dox-treated H9c2 cardiac myoblast cells expressing either the mitochondria-targeted fluorescent protein MitoDsRed or the novel dual-fluorescent mitophagy reporter mt-Rosella. Dox induced mitochondrial fragmentation as shown by reduced form factor, aspect ratio, and mean mitochondrial size. This effect was abolished by short interference RNA-mediated knockdown of dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), a major regulator of fission. Importantly, DRP1 knockdown decreased cell death as indicated by the reduced number of propidium iodide-positive cells and the cleavage of caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase. Moreover, DRP1-deficient mice were protected from Dox-induced cardiac damage, strongly supporting a role for DRP1-dependent mitochondrial fragmentation in Dox cardiotoxicity. In addition, Dox accelerated mitophagy flux, which was attenuated by DRP1 knockdown, as assessed by the mitophagy reporter mt-Rosella, suggesting the necessity of mitochondrial fragmentation in Dox-induced mitophagy. Knockdown of parkin, a positive regulator of mitophagy, dramatically diminished Dox-induced cell death, whereas overexpression of parkin had the opposite effect. Together, these results suggested that Dox cardiotoxicity was mediated, at least in part, by the increased mitochondrial fragmentation and accelerated mitochondrial degradation by the lysosome. Strategies that limit mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in the physiologic range may help reduce Dox cardiotoxicity.-Catanzaro, M. P., Weiner, A., Kaminaris, A., Li, C., Cai, F., Zhao, F., Kobayashi, S., Kobayashi, T., Huang, Y., Sesaki, H., Liang, Q.

Abstract

The association between subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH) and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been widely discussed. This study aimed to conduct an update and comprehensive meta-analysis to reveal the risk of MetS and its components in SCH. PubMed, Embase and ISI Web of Knowledge were searched to identify relevant studies through February 20th, 2020. Review Manager 5.3 and Stata 14.0 were used to conduct the meta-analysis. Both fixed-effects and random-effects models were used. In total, 18 articles (19 studies) incorporating 79,727 participants were included. The pooled OR for MetS comparing subjects with SCH with euthyroid subjects was 1.28 (95% CI: 1.19 to 1.39, p = 0.04, I2 = 40%). Subgroup analysis results showed significant associations of SCH and MetS in the adult subgroup (OR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.18-1.40), Asian population subgroup (OR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.19-1.42) and cross-sectional study design subgroup (OR = 1.31, 95% CI: 1.16-1.47). Significant associations of SCH and MetS also existed in all MetS definition criteria subgroups except the Chinese Diabetes Society (CDS) subgroup. SCH was correlated with MetS and was not affected by the subgroup analysis stratified by the proportion of females in the total population, the TSH cutoff value in SCH diagnostic criteria, or the adjustment for confounding factors. SCH was identified to be associated with an increased risk of obesity, hypertension, high triglyceride (TG) levels and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels. In conclusion, SCH is significantly associated with an increased risk of MetS and four out of five components of MetS.

Abstract

Background Recently, the relationship between thyroid hormones (THs) across the euthyroid ranges and metabolic syndrome (MetS) has been widely discussed. This study aimed to present specific cutoff values of THs to assess the association between THs and MetS in a euthyroid cohort. Methods Data of 2694 subjects, aged 18–80 years, who attended health examination in Xi’an Electric Power Central Hospital from April 2011 to December 2015 were collected and analyzed. The first cohort enrolled 929 participants (followed up by 2221 person-years totally) to assess correlations between serum thyrotropin (TSH), triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) levels and MetS. The second cohort included 698 participants (followed up by 1709 person-years totally) to evaluate relationships between serum free triiodothyronine (FT3), free thyroxine (FT4) levels and MetS. MetS was defined according to the criteria of the American Heart Association/National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (AHA/NHLBI) scientific statements of 2009. Euthyroidism was defined as serum TSH, FT3 and FT4 levels within the reference ranges without taking any thyroid medication. Results The cutoff values for TSH, T3, T4, FT3 and FT4 were 2.0mIU/L, 1.9 nmol/L, 117 nmol/L, 4.3 pmol/L and 16 pmol/L, respectively. Participants were categorized into two groups according to cutoff values: the lower-THs group and the higher-THs group. There was no significant difference in the risk of MetS between two groups in TSH, T3, T4 and FT3. The incidence of MetS was significantly higher in lower-FT4 group than higher-FT4 group (1.00 vs 0.622 (0.458, 0.846), P = 0.002). The lower-FT4/higher-TSH group had the highest hazard ratios of MetS. (2.131vs 1.0 (1.380,3.291), P = 0.006). Conclusions Lower normal FT4 (FT4 ≤ 16.0 pmol/L) is an independent risk factor for MetS, and lower normal thyroid function (TSH > 2.0 mIU/L and FT4 ≤ 16.0 pmol/L) is associated with a higher risk of developing MetS.

Abstract

We present the calibration strategy for the 20 kton liquid scintillator central detector of the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO). By utilizing a comprehensive multiple-source and multiple-positional calibration program, in combination with a novel dual calorimetry technique exploiting two independent photosensors and readout systems, we demonstrate that the JUNO central detector can achieve a better than 1% energy linearity and a 3% effective energy resolution, required by the neutrino mass ordering determination.

Abstract

To identify candidate neuroimaging and genetic biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD) and other brain disorders, especially for little-investigated brain diseases, we advocate a data-driven approach which incorporates an adaptive classifier ensemble model acquired by integrating Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Ensemble Learning (EL) with Genetic Algorithm (GA), i.e., the CNN-EL-GA method, into Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS).Above all, a large number of CNN models as base classifiers were trained using coronal, sagittal, or transverse magnetic resonance imaging slices, respectively, and the CNN models with strong discriminability were then selected to build a single classifier ensemble with the GA for classifying AD, with the help of the CNN-EL-GA method. While the acquired classifier ensemble exhibited the highest generalization capability, the points of intersection were determined with the most discriminative coronal, sagittal, and transverse slices. Finally, we conducted GWAS on the genotype data and the phenotypes, i.e., the gray matter volumes of the top ten most discriminative brain regions, which contained the ten most points of intersection.Six genes of PCDH11X/Y, TPTE2, LOC107985902, MUC16 and LINC01621 as well as Single-Nucleotide Polymorphisms, e.g., rs36088804, rs34640393, rs2451078, rs10496214, rs17016520, rs2591597, rs9352767 and rs5941380, were identified.This approach overcomes the limitations associated with the impact of subjective factors and dependence on prior knowledge while adaptively achieving more robust and effective candidate biomarkers in a data-driven way.The approach is promising to facilitate discovering effective candidate genetic biomarkers for brain disorders, as well as to help improve the effectiveness of identified candidate neuroimaging biomarkers for brain diseases.

Abstract

A well-designed heteroleptic ruthenium(ii) polypyridyl complex demonstrated stable target-specific in vitro Golgi apparatus imaging abilities in HeLa cell lines. After utilizing photodynamic therapy via UV excitation, the Ru-SL complex could be triggered to generate singlet oxygen (1O2) and red fluorescence signals. 1O2 was highly cytotoxic and could induce DNA damage and the disappearance of the Golgi apparatus. The red fluorescence signals disappeared gradually, suggesting that the live or dead state of the cells can be estimated from the fluorescence signal intensity.

Abstract

Hyperglycemia-induced mitochondrial dysfunction plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy. Injured mitochondrial segments are separated by mitochondrial fission and eliminated by autophagic sequestration and subsequent degradation in the lysosome, a process termed mitophagy. However, it remains poorly understood how high glucose affects the activities of, and the relationship between, mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in cardiomyocytes. In this study, we determined the functional roles of mitochondrial fission and mitophagy in hyperglycemia-induced cardiomyocyte injury. High glucose (30 mM, HG) reduced mitochondrial connectivity and particle size and increased mitochondrial number in neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes, suggesting an enhanced mitochondrial fragmentation. SiRNA knockdown of the pro-fission factor dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) restored mitochondrial size but did not affect HG toxicity, and Mdivi-1, a DRP1 inhibitor, even increased HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury, as shown by superoxide production, mitochondrial membrane potential and cell death. However, DRP1 overexpression triggered mitochondrial fragmentation and mitigated HG-induced cardiomyocyte injury, suggesting that the increased mitochondrial fission is beneficial, rather than detrimental, to cardiomyocytes cultured under HG conditions. This is in contrast to the prevailing hypothesis that mitochondrial fragmentation mediates or contributes to HG cardiotoxicity. Meanwhile, HG reduced mitophagy flux as determined by the difference in the levels of mitochondria-associated LC3-II or the numbers of mitophagy foci indicated by the novel dual fluorescent reporter mt-Rosella in the absence and presence of the lysosomal inhibitors. The ability of HG to induce mitochondrial fragmentation and inhibit mitophagy was reproduced in adult mouse cardiomyocytes. Overexpression of Parkin, a positive regulator of mitophagy, or treatment with CCCP, a mitochondrial uncoupler, induced mitophagy and attenuated HG-induced cardiomyocyte death, while Parkin knockdown had opposite effects, suggesting an essential role of mitophagy in cardiomyocyte survival under HG conditions. Strikingly, Parkin overexpression increased mitochondrial fragmentation, while DRP1 overexpression accelerated mitophagy flux, demonstrating a reciprocal activation loop that controls mitochondrial fission and mitophagy. Thus, strategies that promote the mutual positive interaction between mitochondrial fission and mitophagy while simultaneously maintain their levels within the physiological range would be expected to improve mitochondrial health, alleviating hyperglycemic cardiotoxicity.
