Despite the development of advanced technologies for interventional coronary reperfusion after myocardial infarction, a substantial number of patients experience high mortality due to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (MI/R) injury. An in-depth understanding of the mechanisms underlying MI/R injury can provide crucial strategies for mitigating myocardial damage and improving patient survival. Here, it is discovered that the 4-hydroxy-2-nonenal (4-HNE) accumulates during MI/R, accompanied by high rates of myocardial ferroptosis.

The results showed that the contents of MBC in Betula platyphila and Quercus mongolica leaf litter treatments in home environment (Bh and Qh treatments) were significant higher than that in B. platyphlla and Q.

The results showed that the average contents of MBC in 0-20 cm soil layer were 124.84, 325.

The objectives of this study were to examine the biomass and C pools of the major ecosystem components in a replicated age sequence of P. tabulaeformis secondary forest stands in Northern China.
