BackgroundTelemedicine has great potential for diabetes management. The COVID-19 pandemic has boosted the development of telemedicine. However, the factors influencing the behavioral intentions to use and use behaviors of telemedicine in patients with diabetes in China are not clear. ObjectiveWe aimed to understand the determinants of behavioral intention to use telemedicine based on an extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model and to identify demographic factors associated with telemedicine use in patients with diabetes in China. MethodsPatients with diabetes who are aged ≥18 years were surveyed from February 1 to February 7, 2023. We distributed the survey link in 3 WeChat groups including a total of 988 patients with diabetes from the outpatient department or patients discharged from Changsha Central Hospital. Structural equation modeling was used to understand the determinants of behavioral intention. A multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the demographic factors associated with telemedicine use. ResultsIn total, 514 questionnaires were collected. Of the respondents, 186 (36.2%) were diagnosed with COVID-19. The measurement model showed acceptable reliability, convergent validity, discriminant validity, and data fit indices. The model explained 63.8% of the variance in behavioral intention. Social influence, performance expectancy, and facilitating conditions positively influenced behavioral intention (β=.463, P.05). The overall use of telemedicine was 20.6% (104/514). After adjusting for the behavioral intention score, the multivariate regression analysis showed that age, education, and family income were associated with telemedicine use. Telemedicine use was higher in the 40 to 59 years and 18 to 39 years age groups than in the ≥60 years age group (odds ratio [OR] 4.35, 95% CI 1.84-10.29, P=.001; OR 9.20, 95% CI 3.40-24.88, P¥100,000 group: OR 4.63, 95% CI 1.41-15.27, P=.01). ConclusionsSocial influence, performance expectancy, and facilitating conditions positively affected the behavioral intention of patients with diabetes to use telemedicine. Young patients, highly educated patients, and patients with high family income use telemedicine more often. Promoting behavioral intention and paying special attention to the needs of older adult patients, patients with low income, and patients with low levels of education are needed to encourage telemedicine use.

Deoxynivalenol (DON) contamination in feed is a global concern that severely threatens the health of animals and humans. Taxifolin (TA) is a natural flavonoid, a member of the polyphenols, that possesses robust antioxidant properties. This study aimed to investigate the effect of TA on DON-induced damage in porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). The cells were pre-incubated with a series of concentrations of TA for 24 h and exposed to DON (0.5 μg/mL) for another 24 h. The results showed that pretreatment with TA (150 μM) significantly inhibited the DON-induced decline in cell viability (p < 0.05) and cell proliferation (p < 0.01). Additionally, 150 μM TA also alleviated DON-induced apoptosis (p < 0.01). Moreover, TA decreased the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by DON (p < 0.01). In addition, TA attenuated DON-induced cell junction damage (p < 0.05). Further experiments showed that TA reversed the DON-induced reduction in antioxidant capacity in the IPEC-J2 cells, probably via activating the Nrf2 signaling pathway (p < 0.05). Collectively, these findings suggest that 150 μM TA can protect against 0.5 μg/mL DON-induced damage to IPEC-J2 cells, potentially via the activation of the Nrf2 signaling pathway. This study provides insight into TA’s potential to act as a green feed additive in the pig farming industry and its efficacy in counteracting DON-induced intestinal damage.

Based on the previous research on the energy absorption of foam metal materials with different structures, a composite blast-resistant energy-absorbing material with a flexible core layer was designed. The material is composed of three different fiber materials (carbon fiber, aramid fiber, and glass fiber) as the core layer and foamed iron–nickel metal as the front and rear panels. The energy absorption characteristics were tested using a self-built gas explosion tube network experimental platform, and the energy absorption effects of different combinations of blast-resistant materials were analyzed. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the performance of blast-resistant materials designed with flexible fiber core layers. The experimental results show that the composite structure blast-resistant material with a flexible core layer has higher energy absorption performance. The work performed in this paper shows that the use of flexible core layer materials has great research potential and engineering research value for improving energy absorption performance, reducing the mass of blast-resistant materials, and reducing production costs. It also provides thoughts for the research of biomimetic energy-absorbing materials.

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).

The local pig breeds in Guizhou possess exceptional meat quality, robust adaptability, and resilience to harsh feeding conditions, making them ideal for producing high-quality pork. With over 10 local pig breeds in the region, we focused on 7 specific breeds: Baixi pigs (BX), Congjiang Xiang pigs (CJX), Guanling pigs (GL), Jianhe White Xiang pigs (JHBX), Jiangkou Luobo pigs (JKLB), Kele pigs (KL), and Qiandong Hua pigs (QDH). Unfortunately, these breeds face threats such as introduced species and inbreeding, resulting in a decline in population size and numbers. To better protect and utilize these breeds, we employed genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers to investigate the population structure, genetic diversity, and selection characteristics of 283 pigs across these seven breeds. Our findings revealed distinct ancestral sources between Chinese and Western pig breeds, as demonstrated by principal component analysis, adjacent tree analysis, and ADMIXTURE analysis. Notably, JHBX exhibited a distant genetic relationship from the other six local pig breeds in Guizhou province, showcasing unique genetic characteristics. While the genetic diversity of the six Chinese native pig populations, excluding JHBX, was generally moderate in Guizhou province, the JHBX population displayed low genetic diversity. Therefore, it is imperative to intensify selection efforts to prevent inbreeding decline in JHBX while further enhancing the protection measures for the other six pig populations. Additionally, we identified candidate genes influencing the size disparity among pigs in Guizhou province through signal selection. Our study outcomes serve as a reference for developing effective conservation and utilization plans for pig breeds in Guizhou province and deepen our understanding of the genetic mechanisms underlying pig body size.

Solar neutrinos ,Astrophysics ,QB460-466 - 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.

Neutrino Detectors and Telescopes (experiments) ,Nuclear and particle physics. Atomic energy. Radioactivity ,QC770-798 - 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.

IntroductionThe community structure of groundwater microorganisms has a significant impact on groundwater quality. However, the relationships between the microbial communities and environmental variables in groundwater of different recharge and disturbance types are not fully understood.MethodsIn this study, measurements of groundwater physicochemical parameters and 16S rDNA high-throughput sequencing technology were used to assess the interactions between hydrogeochemical conditions and microbial diversity in Longkou coastal aquifer (LK), Cele arid zone aquifer (CL), and Wuhan riverside hyporheic zone aquifer (WH). Redundancy analysis indicated that the primary chemical parameters affecting the microbial community composition were NO3–, Cl–, and HCO3–.ResultsThe species and quantity of microorganisms in the river–groundwater interaction area were considerably higher than those in areas with high salinity [Shannon: WH (6.28) > LK (4.11) > CL (3.96); Chao1: WH (4,868) > CL (1510) > LK (1,222)]. Molecular ecological network analysis demonstrated that the change in microbial interactions caused by evaporation was less than that caused by seawater invasion under high-salinity conditions [(nodes, links): LK (71,192) > CL (51,198)], whereas the scale and nodes of the microbial network were greatly expanded under low-salinity conditions [(nodes, links): WH (279,694)]. Microbial community analysis revealed that distinct differences existed in the classification levels of the different dominant microorganism species in the three aquifers.DiscussionEnvironmental physical and chemical conditions selected the dominant species according to microbial functions. Gallionellaceae, which is associated with iron oxidation, dominated in the arid zones, while Rhodocyclaceae, which is related to denitrification, led in the coastal zones, and Desulfurivibrio, which is related to sulfur conversion, prevailed in the hyporheic zones. Therefore, dominant local bacterial communities can be used as indicators of local environmental conditions.

Science - Abstract
Microglia are resident macrophage cells in the central nervous system that search for pathogens or abnormal neural activities and migrate to resolve the issues. The effective search and targeted motion of macrophages mean dearly to maintaining a healthy brain, yet little is known about their migration dynamics. In this work, we study microglial motion with and without the presence of external mechanostimuli. We discover that the cells are promptly attracted by the applied forces (i.e., mechanotaxis), which is a tactic behavior as yet unconfirmed in microglia. Meanwhile, in both the explorative and the targeted migration, microglia display dynamics that is strikingly analogous to bacterial run-and-tumble motion. A closer examination reveals that microglial run-and-tumble is more sophisticated, e.g., they display a short-term memory when tumbling and rely on active steering during runs to achieve mechanotaxis, probably via the responses of mechanosensitive ion channels. These differences reflect the sharp contrast between microglia and bacteria cells (eukaryotes vs. prokaryotes) and their environments (compact tissue vs. fluid). Further analyses suggest that the reported migration dynamics has an optimal search efficiency and is shared among a subset of immune cells (human monocyte and macrophage). This work reveals a fruitful analogy between the locomotion of 2 remote systems and provides a framework for studying immune cells exploring complex environments.

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.

Neutrino Detectors and Telescopes (experiments) ,Nuclear and particle physics. Atomic energy. Radioactivity ,QC770-798 - 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 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.

Smartphone technology has been recently applied for biomedical image acquisition and data analysis due to its high-quality imaging capability, and flexibility to customize multi-purpose apps. In this work, we developed and characterized a smartphone-microfluidic fluorescence imaging system for studying the physiology of pancreatic islets. We further evaluated the system capability by performing real-time fluorescence imaging on mouse islets labeled with either chemical fluorescence dyes or genetically encoded fluorescent protein indicators (GEFPIs). Our results showed that the system was capable of analyzing key beta-cell insulin stimulator-release coupling factors in response to various stimuli with high-resolution dynamics. Furthermore, the integration of a microfluidics allowed high-resolution detection of insulin secretion at single islet level. When compared to conventional fluorescence microscopes and macro islet perifusion apparatus, the system has the advantages of low cost, portable, and easy to operate. With all of these features, we envision that this smartphone-microfluidic fluorescence imaging system can be applied to study islet physiology and clinical applications.

Given the increasing concerns regarding greenhouse gas emissions associated with livestock production, the need to discover effective strategies to mitigate methane production in ruminants is clear. Marine algal polysaccharides have emerged as a promising research avenue because of their abundance and sustainability. Polysaccharides, such as alginate, laminaran, and fucoidan, which are extracted from marine seaweeds, have demonstrated the potential to reduce methane emissions by influencing the microbial populations in the rumen. This comprehensive review extensively examines the available literature and considers the effectiveness, challenges, and prospects of using marine seaweed polysaccharides as feed additives. The findings emphasise that marine algal polysaccharides can modulate rumen fermentation, promote the growth of beneficial microorganisms, and inhibit methanogenic archaea, ultimately leading to decreases in methane emissions. However, we must understand the long-term effects and address the obstacles to practical implementation. Further research is warranted to optimise dosage levels, evaluate potential effects on animal health, and assess economic feasibility. This critical review provides insights for researchers, policymakers, and industry stakeholders dedicated to advancing sustainable livestock production and methane mitigation.

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a type of heart disease delimited by enlargement and dilation of one or both of the ventricles along with damaged contractility, which is often accompanied by the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) less than 40%. DCM is progressive and always leads to heart failure. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are unique species of noncoding RNAs featuring high cell-type specificity and long-lasting conservation, which normally are involved in the regulation of heart failure and DCM recently. So far, a landscape of various single gene or polygene mutations, which can cause complex human cardiac disorders, has been investigated by human-induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) technology. Furthermore, DCM has been modeled as well, providing new perspectives on the disease study at a cellular level. In addition, current genome editing methods can not only repair defects of some genes, but also rescue the disease phenotype in patient-derived iPSCs, even introduce pathological-related mutations into wild-type strains. In this review, we gather up the aspects of the circRNA expression and mechanism in the DCM disease scenario, facilitating understanding in DCM development and pathophysiology in the molecular level. Also, we offer an update on the most relevant scientific progress in iPSC modeling of gene mutation–induced DCM.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of BMP6 on the function of goat ovarian granulosa cells (GCs). The results showed that the exogenous addition of BMP6 did not affect the EdU-positive ratio of ovarian GCs and had no significant effect on the mRNA and protein expression levels of the proliferation-related gene PCNA (p > 0.05). Meanwhile, BMP6 had no significant effect on the cycle phase distribution of GCs but increased the mRNA expression of CDK4 (p < 0.05) and CCND1 (p < 0.01) and decreased the mRNA expression of CCNE1 (p < 0.01). Moreover, BMP6 had no significant effect on the apoptosis rate of GCs and did not affect the mRNA expression levels of apoptosis-related genes BAX, BCL2, and Caspase3 (p > 0.05). Importantly, BMP6 upregulated the secretion of 17 beta-estradiol (E2) and progesterone (P4) in ovarian GCs (p < 0.01). Further studies found that BMP6 inhibited the mRNA expression of 3β-HSD and steroid synthesis acute regulator (StAR) but significantly promoted the mRNA expression of the E2 synthesis rate-limiting enzyme CYP19A1 and the P4 synthesis rate-limiting enzyme CYP11A1 (p < 0.01). Taken together, these results showed that the exogenous addition of BMP6 did not affect the proliferation, cell cycle, and apoptosis of goat ovarian GCs but promoted the secretion of E2 and progesterone P4 in ovarian GCs by upregulating the mRNA expressions of CYP19A1 and CYP11A1.

Recently, amorphous InGaZnO ultraviolet photo thin-film transistors have exhibited great potential for application in future display technologies. Nevertheless, the transmittance of amorphous InGaZnO (~80%) is still not high enough, resulting in the relatively large sacrifice of aperture ratio for each sensor pixel. In this work, the ultraviolet photo thin-film transistor based on amorphous InGaMgO, which processes a larger bandgap and higher transmission compared to amorphous InGaZnO, was proposed and investigated. Furthermore, the effects of post-deposition annealing in oxygen on both the material and ultraviolet detection characteristics of amorphous InGaMgO were also comprehensively studied. It was found that oxygen post-deposition annealing can effectively reduce oxygen vacancies, leading to an optimized device performance, including lower dark current, higher sensitivity, and larger responsivity. We attributed it to the combined effect of the reduction in donor states and recombination centers, both of which are related to oxygen vacancies. As a result, the 240-min annealed device exhibited the lowest dark current of 1.7 × 10−10 A, the highest photosensitivity of 3.9 × 106, and the largest responsivity of 1.5 × 104 A/W. Therefore, our findings have revealed that amorphous InGaMgO photo thin-film transistors are a very promising alternative for UV detection, especially for application in touch-free interactive displays.

The significance of biochemical cues in the tumor immune microenvironment in affecting cancer metastasis is well established, but the role of physical factors in the microenvironment remains largely unexplored. In this article, we investigated how the mechanical interaction between cancer cells and immune cells, mediated by extracellular matrix (ECM), influences immune escape of cancer cells. We focus on the mechanical regulation of macrophages' targeting ability on two distinct types of colorectal carcinoma (CRC) cells with different metastatic potentials. Our results show that macrophages can effectively target CRC cells with low metastatic potential, due to the strong contraction exhibited by the cancer cells on the ECM, and that cancer cells with high metastatic potential demonstrated weakened contractions on the ECM and can thus evade macrophage attack to achieve immune escape. Our findings regarding the intricate mechanical interactions between immune cells and cancer cells can serve as a crucial reference for further exploration of cancer immunotherapy strategies.

Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is produced by ovarian granulosa cells (GCs)and plays a major role in inhibiting the recruitment of primordial follicles and reducing the sensitivity of growing follicles to follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH). Bone morphogenetic protein 6 (BMP6) has similar spatiotemporal expression to AMH during follicular development, suggesting that BMP6 may regulate AMH expression. However, the specific mechanism by which BMP6 regulates AMH expression remains unclear. The objectives of this study were to examine the molecular pathway by which BMP6 regulates AMH expression. The results showed that BMP6 promoted the secretion and expression of AMH in goat ovarian GCs. Mechanistically, BMP6 upregulated the expression of sex-determining region Y-box 9 (SOX9) and GATA-binding factor 4 (GATA4), which was associated with the transcriptional initiation of AMH. AMH expression was significantly decreased by GATA4 knockdown. Moreover, BMP6 treatment promoted the phosphorylation of SMAD1/5/8, whereas inhibiting the SMAD1/5/8 signaling pathway significantly abolished BMP6-induced upregulation of AMH and GATA4 expression. Interestingly, the activation of SMAD1/5/8 alone did not affect the expression of AMH or GATA4. The results suggested that BMP6 upregulated GATA4 through the SMAD1/5/8 signaling pathway, which in turn promoted AMH expression.

Hippocampal radiomic features (HRFs) can serve as biomarkers in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, how different hippocampal segmentation methods affect HRFs in AD is still unknown. The aim of the study was to investigate how different segmentation methods affect HRF accuracy in AD analysis.A total of 1650 subjects were identified from the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative database (ADNI). The mini-mental state examination (MMSE) and Alzheimer's disease assessment scale (ADAS-cog13) were also adopted. After calculating the HRFs of intensity, shape, and textural features from each side of the hippocampus in structural magnetic resonance imaging (sMRI), the consistency of HRFs calculated from 7 different hippocampal segmentation methods was validated, and the performance of machine learning-based classification of AD vs. normal control (NC) adopting the different HRFs was also examined. Additional 571 subjects from the European DTI Study on Dementia database (EDSD) were to validate the consistency of results.Between different segmentations, HRFs showed a high measurement consistency (R0.7), a high significant consistency between NC, mild cognitive impairment (MCI), and AD (T-value plot, R0.8), and consistent significant correlations between HRFs and MMSE/ADAS-cog13 (p0.05). The best NC vs. AD classification was obtained when the hippocampus was sufficiently segmented by primitive majority voting (threshold = 0.2). High consistent results were reproduced from independent EDSD cohort.HRFs exhibited high consistency across different hippocampal segmentation methods, and the best performance in AD classification was obtained when HRFs were extracted by the naïve majority voting method with a more sufficient segmentation and relatively low hippocampus segmentation accuracy.• The hippocampal radiomic features exhibited high measurement/statistical/clinical consistency across different hippocampal segmentation methods. • The best performance in AD classification was obtained when hippocampal radiomics were extracted by the naïve majority voting method with a more sufficient segmentation and relatively low hippocampus segmentation accuracy.

The NanoLuc luciferase (NLuc) and its furimazine (FRZ) substrate have revolutionized bioluminescence (BL) assays and imaging. However, the use of the NLuc-FRZ luciferase-luciferin pair for mammalian tissue imaging is hindered by the low tissue penetration of the emitting blue photons. Here, we present the development of an NLuc mutant, QLuc, which catalyzes the oxidation of a synthetic QTZ luciferin for bright and red-shifted emission peaking at ∼585 nm. Compared to other small single-domain NLuc mutants, this amber-light-emitting luciferase exhibited improved performance for imaging deep-tissue targets in live mice. Leveraging this novel bioluminescent reporter, we further pursued

Fatty acids (FAs) are essential substances for the growth and development of the fetus and placenta. The growing fetus and placenta must obtain adequate FAs received from the maternal circulation and facilitated by various placental FA carriers, including FA transport proteins (FATPs), FA translocase (FAT/CD36), and cytoplasmic FA binding proteins (FABPs). Placental nutrition transport was regulated by imprinted genes H19 and insulin-like growth factor 2 (IGF2). Nevertheless, the relationship between the expression patterns of H19/IGF2 and placental fatty acid metabolism throughout pig pregnancy remains poorly studied and unclear. We investigated the placental fatty acid profile, expression patterns of FA carriers, and H19/IGF2 in the placentae on Days 40 (D40), 65 (D65), and 95 (D95) of pregnancy. The results showed that the width of the placental folds and the number of trophoblast cells of D65 placentae were significantly increased than those of D40 placentae. Several important long-chain FAs (LCFAs), including oleic acid, linoleic acid, arachidonatic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid, and docosatetraenoic acid, in the pig placenta showed dramatically increased levels throughout pregnancy. The pig placenta possessed higher expression levels of CD36, FATP4, and FABP5 compared with other FA carriers, and their expression levels had significantly upregulated 2.8-, 5.6-, and 12.0-fold from D40 to D95, respectively. The transcription level of IGF2 was dramatically upregulated and there were corresponding lower DNA methylation levels in the IGF2 DMR2 in D95 placentae relative to D65 placentae. Moreover, in vitro experimentation revealed that the overexpression of IGF2 resulted in a significant increase in fatty acid uptake and expression levels of CD36, FATP4, and FABP5 in PTr2 cells. In conclusion, our results indicate that CD36, FATP4, and FABP5 may be important regulators that enhance the transport of LCFAs in the pig placenta and that IGF2 may be involved in FA metabolism by affecting the FA carriers expression to support the growth of the fetus and placenta during late pregnancy in pigs.

Multidisciplinary - Abstract
Synaptic zinc ion (Zn 2+ ) has emerged as a key neuromodulator in the brain. However, the lack of research tools for directly tracking synaptic Zn 2+ in the brain of awake animals hinders our rigorous understanding of the physiological and pathological roles of synaptic Zn 2+ . In this study, we developed a genetically encoded far-red fluorescent indicator for monitoring synaptic Zn 2+ dynamics in the nervous system. Our engineered far-red fluorescent indicator for synaptic Zn 2+ (FRISZ) displayed a substantial Zn 2+ -specific turn-on response and low-micromolar affinity. We genetically anchored FRISZ to the mammalian extracellular membrane via a transmembrane (TM) ⍺ helix and characterized the resultant FRISZ-TM construct at the mammalian cell surface. We used FRISZ-TM to image synaptic Zn 2+ in the auditory cortex in acute brain slices and awake mice in response to electric and sound stimuli, respectively. Thus, this study establishes a technology for studying the roles of synaptic Zn 2+ in the nervous system.

- Abstract
BACKGROUND The outbreak of COVID-19 caused a major public health care crisis worldwide On December 7th, 2022, China lifted the “zero tolerance” policy, and the number of patients with COVID-19 infection rose rapidly. Diabetes is a risk factor for severe COVID-19 infection and increased mortality. Telemedicine shows great potential for diabetes management. However, the influencing factors of diabetic patients' behavioral intention to use telemedicine are not clear. OBJECTIVE We aimed to understand determinants of behavioral intention based on an extended Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model and to find factors associated with telemedicine use in patients with diabetes in China. METHODS Patients with diabetes aged >18 years were surveyed from February 1, 2023 to February 7, 2023. We distributed the survey link in three WeChat groups including a total of 988 patients with diabetes from the outpatient department or discharge of Changsha Central Hospital. Structural equation modeling was used to understand determinants of behavioral intention. A multivariate regression analysis was used to identify factors associated with telemedicine usage. RESULTS A total of 514 qualified questionnaires were collected. Of these respondents, 186 (36.2%) had been diagnosed with COVID-19. The results of the measurement model showed acceptable reliability, convergent validity, discriminant validity, and data fit indexes. The model explained 63.8% of the variance in behavioral intention. Social influence, performance expectancy and facilitating conditions positively influenced behavioral intention (β=0.467, P.05). The overall use of telemedicine was 104/514 (20.6%). After adjusting the behavioral intention score, the multivariate regression analysis showed that age, education and family income were associated with telemedicine usage. Compared with the patients aged ≥60, telemedicine usage in the 40-59 years group and 18-39 years group was higher (OR=4.35, 95% CI 1.84-10.29, P=.001; OR=9.20, 95% CI 3.40-24.88, P100,000 group OR=4.63, 95% CI 1.41-15.27, P=.01, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Social influence, performance expectancy and facilitating conditions positively affect the behavioral intention of patients with diabetes to use telemedicine. Young patients, highly educated patients, and patients with high family income use telemedicine more often. Promoting behavioral intention and paying special attention to the needs of elderly patients, patients with low incomes and patients with low levels of education are needed to encourage telemedicine usage.

- Abstract
Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR) is a severe complication in swine production. Placental insufficiency is responsible for inadequate fetal growth, but the specific etiology of placental dysfunction-induced IUGR in pigs remains poorly understood. In this work, placenta samples supplying the lightest-weight (LW) and mean-weight (MW) pig fetuses in the litter at day 65 (D65) of gestation were collected, and the relationship between fetal growth and placental morphologies and functions was investigated using histomorphological analysis, RNA sequencing, quantitative polymerase chain reaction, and in-vitro experiment in LW and MW placentas. Results showed that the folded structure of the epithelial bilayer of LW placentas followed a poor and incomplete development compared with that of MW placentas. A total of 632 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out between the LW and MW placentas, and RACK1 was found to be downregulated in LW placentas. The DEGs were mainly enriched in translation, ribosome, protein synthesis, and mTOR signaling pathway according to GO and KEGG enrichment analyses. In-vitro experiments indicated that the decreased RACK1 in LW placentas may be involved in abnormal development of placental folds (PFs) by inhibiting the proliferation and migration of porcine trophoblast cells. Taken together, these results revealed that RACK1 may be a vital regulator in the development of PFs via regulating trophoblast ribosome function, proliferation, and migration in pigs.

BACKGROUND: Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are covalently closed single-stranded RNAs with multiple biological functions. CircRNA.0007127 is derived from the carbon catabolite repression 4-negative on TATA-less (CCR4-NOT) complex subunit 2 (CNOT2), which was found to regulate tumor cell apoptosis through caspase pathway. METHODS: Potential circRNA.0007127 target microRNAs (miRNAs) were analyzed by miRanda, TargetScan, and RNAhybrid software, and the miRNAs with binding sites for apoptosis-related genes were screened. The roles of circRNA.0007127 and its downstream target, microRNA (miR)-513a-5p, were validated by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), flow cytometry, mitochondrial membrane potential, immunofluorescence, western blot, and caspase-8 (CASP8) protein activity in vitro in H(2)O(2)-induced K-562 cells. The circRNA.0007127‒miR-513a-5p and CASP8‒miR-513a-5p interactions were verified by luciferase reporter assays. RESULTS: Silencing circRNA.0007127 decreased cell apoptosis by inhibiting CASP8 pathway activation in K-562 cells. Compared with the control group, the expression of CASP8 was reduced by 50% and the 43-kD fragment of CASP8 protein was significantly reduced (P≤0.05). The luciferase reporting assay showed that circRNA.0007127 combined with miR-513a-5p or CASP8, with extremely significant differences (P≤0.001). The overexpression of miR-513a-5p inhibited the gene expression level of CASP8 in a human myeloid leukemia cell model (75% change) and the level of a 43-kD fragment of CASP8 protein (P≤0.01). The rescue experiment showed that cotransfection with circRNA.0007127 small-interfering RNA (siRNA) and the miR-513a-5p inhibitor increased CASP8 gene expression and the apoptosis rate, suggesting that the miR-513a-5p inhibitor is a circRNA.0007127 siRNA antagonist. CONCLUSIONS: CircRNA.0007127 regulates K-562 cell apoptosis through the miR-513a-5p/CASP8 axis, which can serve as a novel powerful molecular target for K-562 cells.

Physics::Instrumentation and Detectors ,High Energy Physics::Experiment - Abstract
The coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering process (CEνNS) is a powerful probe of the possible new neutral boson in the theory beyond the standard model, which is a possible explanation of the muon (g−2)μanomaly. CEνNS was first observed in 2017 at the COHERENT experiment by the cesium-iodide (CsI) detector and later in 2020 at the argon (Ar) detector. Recently, the new result of the CsI detector is also updated in 2021. In this poster, we present the constraints on the parameters of several light boson mediator models obtained from the combined analysis of the latest data of the COHERENT CEνNS experiment. We consider a variety of vector boson mediator models and also a model with a new light scalar boson mediator. We compare these constraints with the limits obtained in other experiments, and with the values that can explain the muon(g−2)μanomaly in the models where the muon couples to the new boson mediator.

- Abstract
The NanoLuc luciferase (NLuc) and its furimazine (FRZ) substrate have revolutionized bioluminescence (BL) assays and imaging. However, the use of the NLuc-FRZ luciferase-luciferin pair for mammalian tissue imaging is hindered by the low tissue penetration of the emitting blue photons. Here, we present the development of an NLuc mutant, QLuc, which catalyzes the oxidation of a synthetic QTZ luciferin for bright and red-shifted emission peaking at ∼ 585 nm. This amber-light-emitting luciferase-luciferin pair exhibited improved performance for imaging deep-tissue targets in live mice. Leveraging this novel bioluminescent reporter, we further pursued in vivo immunobioluminescence imaging (immunoBLI), which used a fusion protein of a single-chain variable antibody fragment (scFv) and QLuc for molecular imaging of tumor-associated antigens in a xenograft mouse model. As one of the most red-shifted NLuc variants, we expect QLuc to find broad applications in noninvasive imaging in mammals. Moreover, the immunoBLI method complements immunofluorescence imaging and immuno-positron emission tomography (immunoPET), serving as a convenient and nonradioactive molecular imaging tool for animal models in basic and preclinical research.

There is more than a decade-long history of using static analysis to find bugs in systems such as Linux. Most of the existing static analyses developed for these systems are simple checkers that find bugs based on pattern matching. Despite the presence of many sophisticated interprocedural analyses, few of them have been employed to improve checkers for systems code due to their complex implementations and poor scalability. In this article, we revisit the scalability problem of interprocedural static analysis from a “Big Data” perspective. That is, we turn sophisticated code analysis into Big Data analytics and leverage novel data processing techniques to solve this traditional programming language problem. We propose Graspan , a disk-based parallel graph system that uses an edge-pair centric computation model to compute dynamic transitive closures on very large program graphs. We develop two backends for Graspan, namely, Graspan-C running on CPUs and Graspan-G on GPUs, and present their designs in the article. Graspan-C can analyze large-scale systems code on any commodity PC, while, if GPUs are available, Graspan-G can be readily used to achieve orders of magnitude speedup by harnessing a GPU’s massive parallelism. We have implemented fully context-sensitive pointer/alias and dataflow analyses on Graspan. An evaluation of these analyses on large codebases written in multiple languages such as Linux and Apache Hadoop demonstrates that their Graspan implementations are language-independent, scale to millions of lines of code, and are much simpler than their original implementations. Moreover, we show that these analyses can be used to uncover many real-world bugs in large-scale systems code.

Oxidative stress is important for the etiology and pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Research tools that can conveniently evaluate oxidative stress in AD models are expected to catalyze and accelerate research on AD. This study explored the use of genetically encoded fluorescent indicators (GEFIs) to detect mitochondrial oxidative stress in organotypic brain slices and AD mouse models. To enable ratiometric normalization and avoid tissue autofluorescence, we genetically fused a green fluorescent hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) indicator, HyPer7, with each of two selected, bright red fluorescent proteins (RFPs), mScarlet-I and tdTomato. The resultant indicators, namely HyPerGR(S) and HyPerGR(T), were tagged with mitochondrial targeting sequences and examined for localization and function in cultured HeLa cells and primary mouse neurons. We further utilized HyPerGR(T), which is a genetic fusion of HyPer7 with tdTomato, to monitor mitochondrial H(2)O(2) in response to human β-amyloid 1–42 isoform (Aβ(42)) in cultured brain slices and an AD mouse model. Owning to the high sensitivity and low autofluorescence interference resulting from HyPerGR(T), we successfully detected Aβ(42)-mediated mitochondrial H(2)O(2) in these AD models. The results suggest that HyPerGR(T) is a valuable tool for studying mitochondrial oxidative stress in tissues and animals.

General Medicine - Abstract
As the channel spreads the Chinese voice and promotes Chinese culture, the status of political document translation is self-evident with the deepening of global communication. Taking the English translation of the reports of the 20th and the 19th CPC National Congress as examples, this paper makes a contrastive study of their lexical features in a corpus-based way. With the assistance of corpus analysis software such as AntConc, TagAnt and WordSmith4.0, the author investigates TTR (type-token ratio), lexical density, average sentence length, high-frequency words, and keywords between two reports. It is found that the report of the 20th CPC Nation Congress has more diversified and native expressions with fewer words used, which provides a guiding significance for the English translation of political documents.

- Abstract
Genetically encoded fluorescent indicators have been broadly used to monitor neuronal activity in live animals, but invasive surgical procedures are required. This study presents a functional bioluminescence imaging (fBLI) method for recording the activity of neuronal ensembles in the brain in awake mice. We developed a luciferase prosubstrate activatable in vivo by nonspecific esterase to enhance the brain delivery of the luciferin. We further engineered a bright, bioluminescent indicator with robust responsiveness to calcium ions (Ca2+) and appreciable emission above 600 nm. Integration of these advantageous components enabled the imaging of Ca2+ dynamics in awake mice minimally invasively with excellent signal- to-background and subsecond temporal resolution. This study thus establishes a new paradigm for studying brain functions in health and disease.
