[Hydro-chemical Characteristics and Ion Origin Analysis of Surface Groundwater at the Shengjin Lake and Yangtze River Interface].

The interface between Shengjin Lake and Yangtze River was selected as the study area. The water chemical composition and hydrogen and oxygen isotope values of different types of water bodies were tested, and their seasonal variation characteristics were analyzed to explore the sources of chemical ions in the surface and groundwater. Finally, the contribution of mixed water sources to chemical ions in groundwater was estimated.

[Remote Sensing Monitoring on Spatial Differentiation of Suspended Sediment Concentration in a River-Lake System Based on Sentinel-2 MSI Imaging:A Case for Shengjin Lake and Connected Yangtze River Section in Anhui Province].

Carrying out monitoring of suspended sediment concentration in river and lake systems is of great significance for understanding the laws of sediment transport in water and formulating policies on water environmental control. Taking Shengjin Lake and the connected Yangtze river section in Anhui province as the study area, band reflectance of a Sentinel-2 MSI sensor is simulated according to field spectral datasets, and the retrieval model is established by statistical regression from the synchronized suspended sediment concentration measurements. Then, the retrieved results from 28 scene MSI images during 2017-2019 are used to analyze the spatiotemporal variation of suspended sediment concentration in rivers and lakes, and the influence of water level variation on their spatial differentiation is also discussed.

Vitexin protects against ischemia/reperfusion-induced brain endothelial permeability.

Brain endothelial permeability plays a crucial role in blood-brain barrier (BBB), but the permeability enhancement in cerebral ischemia reperfusion (I/R). Vitexin has certain neuroprotective effects, but the effect brain endothelial permeability in I/R injury was unknown. In this study, the effects of Vitexin on endothelial permeability and the underlying mechanisms in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEc) I/R injury model were investigated.

[Effects of butylphthalide on the apoptosis of PC-12 cells under the induction of β-amyloid peptide].

Objective: To study the protective effects of butylphthalide (NBP) on the Aβ(25-35)-induced apoptosis in PC-12 cells.

Methods: The apoptosis of PC-12 cell was analyzed by MTT assay, transmission electron microscope and PI method at different concentrations of NBP (0.1, 1.
