Study on the response mechanism of MicroRNA novel-13 and novel-44 to Vibrio parahaemolyticus infection in Pinctada fucata martensii.

Pinctada fucata martensii (P. f. martensii) is one of the main pearl oysters cultured in artificial seawater in China.

Dispersal patterns and population genetic structure of Aedes albopictus (Diptera: Culicidae) in three different climatic regions of China.

Background: Aedes albopictus is an indigenous primary vector for dengue and Zika viruses in China. Compared with its insecticide resistance, biology and vector competence, little is known about its genetic variation, which corresponds to environmental variations. Thus, the present study examines how Ae.

ESIPT-Modulated Emission of Lanthanide Complexes: Different Energy-Transfer Pathways and Multiple Responses.

Two series of isostructural lanthanide coordination complexes, namely, LIFM-42(Ln) (Ln=Eu, Tb, Gd, in which LIFM stands for the Lehn Institute of Functional Materials) and LIFM-43(Ln) (Ln=Er, Yb), were synthesized through the self-assembly of an excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) ligand, 5-[2-(5-fluoro-2-hydroxyphenyl)-4,5-bis(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-imidazol-1-yl]isophthalic acid (H hpi2cf), with different lanthanide ions. In the coordination structures linked by the ligands and oxo-bridged Ln clusters (for LIFM-42(Ln) series) or isolated Ln ions (for LIFM-43(Ln) series), the ESIPT ligand can serve as both the host and antenna for protecting and sensitizing the photoluminescence (PL) of Ln ions. Meanwhile, the -OH⋅⋅⋅N active sites on the ligands are vacant, which provides availability to systematically explore the PL behavior of Ln complexes with ESIPT interference.

[Kinetic study on dissociation of amylose/salicylic acid compound using non-isothermal method].

The inclusion compound of amylose and salicylic acid (SA) was prepared by a sealed temperature control method, and the formation of the inclusion compound was confirmed by IR spectrum and powder X-ray diffraction. The kinetic parameters of dissociation of amylose/SA compound were studied by the nonisothermal method which was defined as a relationship between the dissociation ratio and time. The values of activation energy (Ea) and frequency factors (InA) were calculated by a nonlinear least-square method.

Collection, mapping, and annotation of over 28,000 cDNA clones from japonica rice.

We collected and completely sequenced 28,469 full-length complementary DNA clones from Oryza sativa L. ssp. japonica cv.

Effect of 1-O-ethyl-3-butylcyclohexanol on the skin permeation of drugs with different physicochemical characteristics.

The effects of 1-O-ethyl-3-butylcyclohexanol (OEBC) on the in vitro skin permeation of ten model drugs with different physicochemical properties across excised rat skin were evaluated. The results showed that the addition of OEBC significantly improved the in vitro skin permeation of the model drugs compared with the control (without OEBC). To clarify the promoting mechanism of OEBC, a multiple regression analysis was employed.
