Miniaturized high signal-to-noise ratio optical air data system using a compact multi-axis parallel transceiver for airborne application.

We have developed a miniaturized multi-channel parallel optical air data system with high signal-to-noise ratio for airborne application. In the system, we designed a fiber amplifier with multi-channel high-energy output that was respectively used as the transmitting signals and a compact multi-axis transceiver with an entrance pupil diameter of 70 mm that was used to receive multi-channel signals simultaneously. We demonstrated the performance of our system both on ground and on board.

Microplastics exposure causes the senescence of human lung epithelial cells and mouse lungs by inducing ROS signaling.

Microplastics (MPs) are environmental pollutants and can be inhaled by humans to threaten health. The lung tissue, responsible for the gas exchange between the body and the environment, is vulnerable to MPs exposure. However, from the perspective of cellular senescence, the effect of MPs on lung cells and tissues has not yet been deeply dissected.

Pea Albumin Attenuates Dextran Sulfate Sodium-Induced Colitis by Regulating NF-κB Signaling and the Intestinal Microbiota in Mice.

Background: Inflammatory bowel disease remains a global burden with rapidly increasing incidence and prevalence in both industrialized countries and developing countries. In this study, we prepared pea albumin from pea seeds and determined its beneficial effects being anti-inflammatory and on gut microbiota modulation in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-challenged mice.

Method: Six-week-old C57BL/6N male mice received an equivalent volume (200 μL) of sterile phosphate balanced solution, 0.

Enzymatic enrichment of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid glycerides by selective hydrolysis.

Most natural oils are low in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFAs) content, which limits their application in health products. In this study, n-3 PUFAs in glyceride form were selectively enriched by lipase-mediated hydrolysis of n-3 PUFA-containing oils. First, commercial lipases were screened, and the lipase AY "Amano" 400SD from Candida cylindracea was the best choice in producing n-3 PUFA glycerides from tuna oil.

Long Noncoding RNA Regulator of Reprogramming Regulates Cell Growth, Metastasis, and Cisplatin Resistance in Gastric Cancer via miR-519d-3p/HMGA2 Axis.

Gastric cancer (GC) is a common tumor found worldwide, and cisplatin is the first-line agent for the treatment of GC. However, the resistance to cisplatin is an obstacle. Here, we explored the biological mechanism of long noncoding RNA regulator of reprogramming (ROR) in the cisplatin resistance of GC.

Linkage of a locus determining familial progressive hyperpigmentation (FPH) to chromosome 19p13.1-pter in a Chinese family.

Familial progressive hyperpigmentation (FPH) is a rare autosomal dominantly inherited disorder characterized by patches of hyperpigmentation in the skin which are present at birth or in early infancy and increase in size and number with age. Although previous studies showed that FPH is a monogenic trait, the genetic basis for this disease is unknown. Using a genome screening with 182 STR markers from autosomes in a three-generation Chinese family with 17 members, including 6 affected individuals, we identified a locus linked to chromosome 19p13.
