Whether the summer fishing moratorium can improve the status of fisheries resources in the yellow sea and Bohai Sea.

The China government has introduced many strategies in fisheries management of the Yellow Sea and the Bohai Sea, the most stringent of which is the summer fishing moratorium. Whether the summer fishing moratorium can restore fishery resources has always been a concern. In this study, we selected eight representative commercial fish species the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea, including , , , , , , and , and used the JABBA method to study their historical exploited dynamics and current stock status.

Inhibition of spastin impairs motor function recovery after spinal cord injury.

Promoting axonal regeneration is an effective strategy for recovery from traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI). Spastin, a microtubule-severing protein, modulates axonal outgrowth and branch formation by regulating microtubule dynamics. However, the exact role of spastin during recovery from SCI remains unknown.

Phosphorylation mutation impairs the promoting effect of spastin on neurite outgrowth without affecting its microtubule severing ability.

Spastin, a microtubule-severing enzyme, is known to be important for neurite outgrowth. However, the role of spastin post-translational modification, particularly its phosphorylation regulation in neuronal outgrowth, remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of eliminating spastin phosphorylation on the neurite outgrowth of rat hippocampal neurons.

[Spatio-temporal variations in species composition and diversity of fish communities in the adjacent waters of Changshan Islands, China].

In order to understand species composition and diversity of fish communities in the ecotone between the Yellow Sea and Bohai Sea, we examined species composition and temporal and spatial variations of fish species diversity using the relative importance index (IRI), species diversity index and dominance curve based on bottom trawl survey data of fish resources in the adjacent waters of the Changshan Islands in October 2016, January, May and August 2017. The results showed that 77 fish species were captured, mainly temperate water fishes, demersal fishes and migratory fishes. The dominant species exhibited obvious seasonal variation.

Development and validation of a nomogram to predict the 30-day mortality risk of patients with intracerebral hemorrhage.

Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a stroke syndrome with an unfavorable prognosis. Currently, there is no comprehensive clinical indicator for mortality prediction of ICH patients. The purpose of our study was to construct and evaluate a nomogram for predicting the 30-day mortality risk of ICH patients.

SUMOylation of microtubule-cleaving enzyme KATNA1 promotes microtubule severing and neurite outgrowth.

Katanin p60 ATPase-containing subunit A1 (KATNA1) is a microtubule-cleaving enzyme that regulates the development of neural protrusions through cytoskeletal rearrangements. However, the mechanism underlying the linkage of the small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) protein to KATNA1 and how this modification regulates the development of neural protrusions is unclear. Here we discovered, using mass spectrometry analysis, that SUMO-conjugating enzyme UBC9, an enzyme necessary for the SUMOylation process, was present in the KATNA1 interactome.

Copper-Catalyzed Aminoarylation of Alkenes via Aminyl Radical Addition and Aryl Migration.

We describe a new strategy for aminoarylation of alkenes by copper-catalyzed smiles rearrangement using -benzoylhydroxylamines as the amine reagent. This method affords various β-amino amide derivatives possessing a quaternary carbon center with wide functional group tolerance and high regioselectivity. The mechanistic studies indicate that the transformation can involve aminyl radical intermediates under acid-free condition.

Different fusion tags affect the activity of ubiquitin overexpression on spastin protein stability.

Spastin is one of the proteins which lead to hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP), whose dysfunction towards microtubule severing and membrane transporting is critically important. The present study is to elucidate the mechanisms of the protein stability regulation of spastin. The ubiquitin encoding plasmids are transfected into COS-7 cells with different fusion tags including Green Fluorescent Protein (GFP), mCherry and Flag.

Photoredox-catalyzed redox-neutral difluoroalkylation to construct perfluoroketones with difluoroenoxysilanes.

A mild and facile approach to construct various perfluoroketones photo-catalyzed difluoroalkylation of difluoroenoxysilanes is developed. The reaction includes a strategy of combination of two fluorine-containing functional groups, which confers the reaction with characteristics like high efficiency, mild conditions, and broad scope. A variety of fluoroalkyl halides including perfluoroalkyl iodides, bromo difluoro esters and amides can be employed as radical precursors.

Investigation of normal knees kinematics in walking and running at different speeds using a portable motion analysis system.

Walking and running at different speeds are common in daily life. This study investigated 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) kinematics of normal knees of Chinese during walking and running. Forty healthy were investigated in 4 conditions: comfortable walking, normal walking, slow running and ordinary running.

The lncRNA MALAT1/miR-30/Spastin Axis Regulates Hippocampal Neurite Outgrowth.

Spastin, a microtubule-severing enzyme, is important for neurite outgrowth. However, the mechanisms underlying the post-transcriptional regulation of spastin during microtubule-related processes are largely unknown. We demonstrated that the spastin expression level is controlled by a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) metastasis-associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1)/microRNA-30 (miR-30) axis during neurite outgrowth.

Progress of co-culture systems in cartilage regeneration.

Introduction: Cartilage tissue engineering has rapidly developed in recent decades, exhibiting promising potential to regenerate and repair cartilage. However, the origin of a large amount of a suitable seed cell source is the major bottleneck for the further clinical application of cartilage tissue engineering. The use of a monoculture of passaged chondrocytes or mesenchymal stem cells results in undesired outcomes, such as fibrocartilage formation and hypertrophy.
