The middle reaches of the Yellow River (MRYR) in China are some of the most severely eroded areas in the world. Knowledge of the changes in sediment yield in the MRYR is of great significance for understanding the impact of human activities on soil erosion and sediment transport. Using data from the MRYR and 13 sub-basins, this study aims to evaluate the actual contributions of human activities to sediment yields and to examine whether the widely used Mann-Kendall test has underestimated this contribution.

Introduction: Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a master regulator of allergic inflammation against pathogens at barrier surfaces of the lung, skin, and gut. However, aberrant TSLP activity is implicated in various allergic, chronic inflammation and autoimmune diseases and cancers. Biologics drugs neutralizing excess TSLP activity represented by tezepelumab have been approved for severe asthma and are being evaluated for the treatments of other TSLP-mediated diseases.

As the application of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) continues to expand, its stability and safety issues are receiving more and more attention, especially the interference problem. Interference reduces the signal reception quality of ground terminals and may even lead to the paralysis of GNSS function in severe cases. In recent years, Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites have been highly emphasized for their unique advantages in GNSS interference detection, and related commercial and academic activities have increased rapidly.

In this work, the phenomenological potential-driving model based on the random neck rupture model is used to calculate and evaluate the independent yields and cumulative yields of fission products for the mass/charge distribution in the U(n, f) reaction with an incident neutron energy of 0.5 MeV and 14 MeV. In particular, the energy dependence of independent yields, including Kr, Sr, Zr, Mo, Ru, Xe, Cs, Ba and Ce, is evaluated for an incident neutron energy below 20 MeV and compared with GEFY6.

In clinical specialties focusing on neurological disorders, there is a need for comprehensive and integrated non-invasive, sensitive, and specific testing methods. Both Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy are classified as α-synucleinopathies, characterized by abnormal accumulation of α-synuclein protein, which provides a shared pathological background for their comparative study. In addition, both Parkinson's disease and multiple system atrophy involve neuronal death, a process that may release circulating cell-free DNA (cfDNA) into the bloodstream, leading to specific alterations.

The transgenic maize DBN9936 × DBN9501, which confers resistance to insects and tolerance to herbicides, was developed via conventional cross breeding of transgenic maize DBN9936 and DBN9501. In our present study, a 90-day feeding toxicity study was conducted on Sprague Dawley rats to evaluate the safety of the maize. A total of 140 rats were randomly assigned to seven groups (n = 10/sex/group): one control group, three genetically modified (GM) groups with 17.

Article Synopsis
  • Dietary restriction (DR) can lengthen lifespan in various organisms, and this study uses C. elegans to explore the role of the DEAD-box RNA helicase DDX-23 in healthspan regulation under DR conditions.
  • DDX-23 is crucial for heat and oxidative stress responses and operates in the germline to help mediate the effects of dietary restriction on longevity.
  • The research also shows that DDX-23 negatively influences healthy lifespan extension by increasing miR-231 levels, which inhibits the FOXO transcription factor DAF-16, providing insights into the genetic mechanisms behind DR-induced longevity.

The pH of environmental systems plays a crucial role in determining pollutant behavior, necessitating the development of effective tools for real-time monitoring. This study introduces a novel series of lipophilic HPTS derivatives, developed through a two-step synthesis route, designed as pH-sensitive dyes, characterized by high fluorescence intensity, photostability, dual excitation/single emission, and significant Stokes shifts. We engineered self-ratiometric pH-sensing planar optode foils and investigated the impact of carbon chain length on foil durability.

The specific spatiotemporal distribution of diverse components in tumor microenvironment plays a crucial role in the cancer progression.three-dimensional (3D) tumor models with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) based microfluidic platform have been applied as useful tool to conduct studies from cancer biology to drug screening. However, PDMS has not been welcomed as a standardized commercial application for preclinical screening due to inherent limitations in scale-up production and molecule absorption.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers created a laser system using SbTe nanosheets as saturable absorbers and an acousto-optic modulator (AOM), resulting in a KTiOAsO-based optical parametric oscillator (OPO) powered by a modulated Q-switched laser.
  • Experimental findings revealed that increasing pump power reduces the pulse widths of Q-switched envelopes and the number of mode-locking pulses, ultimately leading to subnanosecond pulse generation.
  • The team also formulated coupled rate equations that describe this process and confirmed that their numerical simulations match the experimental data, highlighting SbTe's potential in optoelectronics.

Histone lysine-specific demethylase 1 (LSD1) is hyperactive in breast cancer, which is associated with the metastasis of the tumor. Current irreversible LSD1 inhibitors are all synthesized by covalently binding to the flavin adenine dinucleotide cofactor, which often have side effects due to the high affinity for a variety of targets. Here, we identified isoforsythiaside (IFA), a natural phenylpropanoid glycoside isolated from , as a novel covalent inhibitor of LSD1.
