Biotic Interaction Underpins the Assembly Processes of the Bacterial Community Across the Sediment-Water Interface in a Subalpine Lake.

The sediment-water interface is the most active region for biogeochemical processes and biological communities in aquatic ecosystems. As the main drivers of biogeochemical cycles, the assembly mechanisms and the distribution characteristics of microbial communities at this boundary remain unclear. This study investigated the microbial communities across the sediment-water interface in a natural subalpine lake in China.

Modeling the spatiotemporal distribution, bioaccumulation, and ecological risk assessment of microplastics in aquatic ecosystems: A review.

Microplastic (MP) pollution poses a significant threat to aquatic ecosystems. Numerical modeling has emerged as an effective tool for predicting the distribution, accumulation, and risk assessment of MPs in aquatic ecosystems. However, published work has not systematically assessed the strengths and weaknesses of various modeling approaches.

KLF7 Promotes Hepatocellular Carcinoma Progression Through Regulating SLC1A5-Mediated Tryptophan Metabolism.

Krüppel-like factor 7 is a transcriptional activator and acts as an oncogene in human cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Tryptophan metabolism is important for HCC cell proliferation, metastasis, and invasion. It is unclear whether KLF7 could regulate Trp metabolism in HCC.

An Evaluation of the Usage of Internet Resources by Patients with Lung Cancer.

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer mortality. Meanwhile, the Internet remains a remarkably popular source of health information. This study characterizes how patients with lung cancer utilize online resources including social media and examines how this online health information-seeking behaviour (HISB) influences their healthcare journeys.
