Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of the Transcription Factor Gene Family in Hybrid Tea Rose Under Drought Stress.

Drought stress is an important factor that reduces plant biomass production and quality. The () gene family is widely involved in biological processes such as plant growth, development, and stress response. However, the characteristics of the gene family in hybrid tea rose () and their potential functions in responding to drought stress are still unclear.

Oxygen Evolution Enhancement of Oxalate-Based Nickel-Iron MOF through Bipyridine Coordinated Strategy.

The catalytic performance of oxalate-based Ni-Fe metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) in the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) was investigated via a coordination strategy. The bidentate chelating ligand 2,2'-bpy (2,2'-bipyridine), was utilized to improve the catalytic kinetics under ambient conditions. The results revealed that a MOF-to-MOF transformation including the formation of [M(2,2'-bpy)] (M = Ni/Fe, = 1-3) could boost alkaline OER, giving an impressive ultralow overpotential of 220 mV at a current density of 10 mA/cm in a 1 M KOH solution, surpassing the performance of control group activity of oxalate-based Ni-Fe MOF.

Lactobacillus rhamnosus modulates murine neonatal gut microbiota and inflammation caused by pathogenic Escherichia coli.

Background: Pathogenic Escherichia coli strains produce neonatal septicemia after colonizing the neonatal gut. While the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG (LGG) effectively reduces neonatal sepsis, LGG's effects on the neonatal intestinal microbiota alterations and inflammation triggered by E. coli are incompletely understood.

Compositional variances in petal cuticular wax of eight rose species and their impacts on vase life under water-loss stress.

Cuticular wax is the first barrier between plants and the environment. Here, the densities of cuticular wax crystals on the petals of eight rose cultivars were determined to be sparse; the crystals were mostly granular and only a few rod-shaped crystals were observed in 'Sweet'. The total contents and chemical compositions of waxes were significantly different among the rose varieties.

Aging induces changes in cancer formation and microbial content in a murine model of bladder cancer.

Bladder cancer (BCa) incidence is tightly linked to aging. Older patients with BCa present with higher grade tumors and have worse outcomes on Bacillus-Calmette-Guerin (BCG) immunotherapy. Aging is also known to result in changes in the gut microbiome over mammalian lifespan, with recent studies linking alterations in the gut microbiome to changes in tumor immunity.

A computational study on the coordination modes and electron absorption spectra of the complexes U(iv) with ,,','-tetramethyl-diglycolamide and anions.

Lipophilic ,,','-tetraalkyl-diglycolamides (TRDGAs) are promising extractants for actinides separation in spent nuclear fuel reprocessing. Usually, in the extracted complexes of actinide and lanthanide ions of various oxidation states, the metal ions are completely surrounded by 2 or 3 TRDGA molecules, and the counter anions do not directly coordinate with them. In contrast, the extracted complexes of U(iv) from different media presenting different absorption spectra indicate that the anions (Cl and NO) are directly involved in the coordination with U(iv) in the first inner sphere.

Innovative Family-Based Genetically Informed Series of Analyses of Whole-Exome Data Supports Likely Inheritance for Grammar in Children with Specific Language Impairment.

Individuals with specific language impairment (SLI) struggle with language acquisition despite average non-verbal intelligence and otherwise typical development. One SLI account focuses on grammar acquisition delay. The current study aimed to detect novel rare genetic variants associated with performance on a grammar assessment, the Test of Early Grammatical Impairment (TEGI), in English-speaking children.

Astragaloside IV in Hypoxic Pulmonary Hypertension: an In Vivo and In Vitro Experiments.

The objective of study was to find the actions of astragaloside IV (ASIV) on PAH due to monocrotaline (MCT) in rats. Intraperitoneal injection of 60 mg/ kg MCT was injected to rats, come after by ASIV treatment with doses of 10 mg/kg daily once or 30 mg/kg of dose for twenty one days once daily. RVSP, serum inflammatory cytokines, RVH, and the other pathological parameters of the pulmonary arteries were evaluated.

Speciation analysis the complexation of uranyl nitrate with tri--butyl phosphate in supercritical CO.

The complexation of solid uranyl nitrate with tri--butyl phosphate (TBP) in supercritical CO is quite different from that of a liquid-liquid extraction system because fewer water molecules are involved. Here, the complexation mechanism was investigated by molecular dynamics simulation, emphasising on speciation distribution analysis. In the anhydrous uranyl nitrate system, poly-core uranyl-TBP species [UO(NO)]·3TBP and [UO(NO)]·3TBP were formed in addition to the predominant [UO(NO)]·1TBP and [UO(NO)]·2TBP species.

Investigation on the characteristics and mechanisms of ACE inhibitory peptides by a thorough analysis of all 8000 tripeptides via binding free energy calculation.

Food-derived angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides represent a potential source of new antihypertensive. However, their characteristics and binding mechanisms were not well understood. In this study, novel energy calculation and experimentation were combined to elucidate the characteristics and mechanisms of ACE inhibitory tripeptides.

Ab initio determination of crystal stability of di-p-tolyl disulfide.

With the rapid growth of energy demand and the depletion of existing energy resources, the new materials with superior performances, low costs and environmental friendliness for energy production and storage are explored. Di-p-tolyl disulfide (p-TolS) is a typical lubricating material, which has been applied in the field of energy storage. The conformational properties and phase transformations of p-TolS have been studied by pioneers, but their polymorphs and the polymorphism induced crystal structure changes require further analysis.

In Situ Anchoring of Pyrrhotite on Graphitic Carbon Nitride Nanosheet for Efficient Immobilization of Uranium.

Enrichment of U is an urgent project for nuclear energy development. Herein, magnetic graphitic carbon nitride nanosheets were successfully prepared by in situ anchoring of pyrrhotite (Fe S ) on the graphitic carbon nitride nanosheet (CNNS), which were used for capturing U . The structural characterizations of Fe S /CNNS-1 indicated that the CNNS could prevent the aggregation of Fe S and the saturation magnetization was 4.
