Analyze the impact of lignin depolymerization process and its products on humic substance formation.

This study aimed to identify types of lignin depolymerization products (LDP) and their role in humic substances (HS) formation, and little research has revealed which LDP could participate into HS formation during composting. Therefore, rice straw (RS), peanut straw (PS) and pine needles (PN) were selected for their different lignin structures to qualitatively and quantitative analyze LDP firstly. Qualitative results indicated that RS, PS and PN mainly produced LDP with G-type, common group and dimer structure.

Gaining insight into the effect of laccase expression on humic substance formation during lignocellulosic biomass composting.

The aim is to enhance lignin humification by promoting laccase activities which can promote lignin depolymerization and reaggregation during composting. 1-Hydroxybenzotriazole (HBT) is employed to conduct laccase mediator system (LMS), application of oxidized graphene (GO) in combination to strengthen LMS. Compared with control, the addition of GO, HBT, and GH (GO coupled with HBT) significantly improved laccase expression and activities (P < 0.

Deferoxamine Induces Autophagy Following Traumatic Brain Injury via TREM2 on Microglia.

Previous studies have indicated that iron disorder, inflammation, and autophagy play an important role in traumatic brain injury (TBI). The triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2 (TREM2), an immunoglobulin superfamily transmembrane receptor, is involved in inflammation. However, the role of TREM2 in modulating the microglia response in TBI has been rarely investigated.

Lignite drove phenol precursors to participate in the formation of humic acid during chicken manure composting.

This study set out to explore the impact of lignite on preserving organic matter and promoting the formation of humic acid (HA) during chicken manure composting. Composting test was carried out for control (CK), 5 % lignite addition treatment (L1), 10 % addition treatment (L2) and 15 % addition treatment (L3). The results demonstrated that lignite addition effectively reduced the loss of organic matter.

Role of TREM2 in the Development of Neurodegenerative Diseases After Traumatic Brain Injury.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) has been found as the primary cause of morbidity and disability worldwide, which has posed a significant social and economic burden. The first stage of TBI produces brain edema, axonal damage, and hypoxia, thus having an effect on the blood-brain barrier function, promoting inflammatory responses, and increasing oxidative stress. Patients with TBI are more likely to develop post-traumatic epilepsy, behavioral issues, as well as mental illnesses.

Effect of bisphosphonate on hip fracture in patients with osteoporosis or osteopenia according to age: a meta-analysis and systematic review.

This meta-analysis and systematic review investigated the efficacy of bisphosphonates on the incidence of hip fracture (IHF) in patients of different ages with osteoporosis or osteopenia. We searched Web of Science, Embase, the Cochrane Database, and PubMed from inception to January 10, 2021, for trials reporting the effects of bisphosphonates on the IHF. We included only randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trials.

Manganese dioxide driven the carbon and nitrogen transformation by activating the complementary effects of core bacteria in composting.

This study revealed core bacterial metabolic mechanisms involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in composting with adding MnO. Two tests (control group (CK), adding MnO (M)) were performed. The results indicated that the MnO accelerated the transformation of carbon and nitrogen in composting.

Evaluating the phytotoxicity of dissolved organic matter derived from black carbon.

Dissolved organic matter (DOM) derived from black carbon (BC) can migrate from soil to river by rainfall or snow melting in nature. Because of the incomplete biomass combustion, BC produced at various temperatures is mixed, which is hard to divide the DOM at single temperature. Then it is difficult to explore the properties and risks of DOM in detail.

Effects of various decellularization methods on histological and biomechanical properties of rabbit tendons.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of various decellularization methods on the histological and biomechanical properties of rabbit tendons. In total, six chemical reagents, including 1% t-octyl-phenoxypolyethoxyethanol (Triton-X 100), 0.5% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), 1% tri-n-butyl phosphate (TnBP), 1% Triton-X 100 + 0.

[An assistant artificial hip joint].

The assistant artificial hip joint (AAHJ) is a new impermanent hip support implanted in the body. It is used for treatment of ischemic necrosis of the femoral head at the early stage. It reserves the natural femoral head, increases its containment and decreases its load, thus makes the recovery of the necrosed femoral head.
