Article Synopsis
- The artificial solar saltworks fields of Hon Khoi in southern Vietnam are crucial for industry and biodiversity, characterized by extreme conditions like high salinity and intense UV radiation.
- A metabarcoding study was conducted to analyze the unique prokaryotic communities in these saltworks, comparing them with other saline environments in northern Vietnam and Italy.
- Findings revealed significant structural instability in prokaryotic communities due to pond reuse, but also identified specific ultra-small prokaryotic clades unique to Hon Khoi, highlighting the need for further research to explore their ecological and potential biotechnological roles.
The influence of microalgae on the formation of associated prokaryotic assemblages in halophilic microbial communities is currently underestimated. The aim of this study was to characterize shifts in prokaryotic assemblages of halophilic microalgae upon their transition to laboratory cultivation. Monoalgal cultures belonging to the classes Chlorodendrophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Trebouxiophyceae, and Chlorophyceae were isolated from habitats with intermediate salinity, about 100 g/L, nearby Elton Lake (Russia).

- Reactive oxygen species (ROS) from NADPH oxidase (NOX) are crucial for regulating blood vessel contraction during early development, and neonatal hypoxia alters this function.
- Normobaric hypoxia exposure in rat pups leads to significant changes in how NOX-derived ROS influence blood vessel contractions, particularly when triggered by specific agonists.
- Understanding these mechanisms may highlight risks for disorders due to hypoxia during the perinatal period, although the exact programming effects of such conditions remain largely unexplored.
Flexible crystal() structures, which exhibit() single-crystal()-to-single-crystal() (SCSC) transformations(), are attracting attention() in many applied aspects: magnetic() switches, catalysis, ferroelectrics and sorption. Acid treatment() for titanosilicate material() AM-4 and natural() compounds with the same structures led to SCSC transformation() by loss() Na, Li and Zn cations with large structural() changes (20% of the unit()-cell() volume()). The conservation() of crystallinity through complex() transformation() is possible due() to the formation() of a strong hydrogen bonding() system().

Single irradiation with a beam of protons or carbon ions had no significant effects on the relative number of cancer stem cells (CSC). The effects of combined irradiation in a total equieffective dose of 4 Gy depended on the sequence of exposure to ionizing radiations: the relative number of CSC did not change after irradiation with carbon ions and then with protons, but increased in the case of the reverse sequence.
