Characterisation and Expression Analysis of LdSERK1, a Somatic Embryogenesis Gene in var. .

The Lanzhou lily ( var. ) is a variant of the Sichuan lily of the lily family and is a unique Chinese 'medicinal and food' sweet lily. Somatic cell embryogenesis of has played an important role in providing technical support for germplasm conservation, bulb propagation and improvement of genetic traits.

Effects of greater erythroid Cl/HCO transporter (band 3) expression on ventilation and gas exchange during exhaustive exercise.

Band 3 protein is a Cl/[Formula: see text] transporter on the red blood cell (RBC) surface with an important role in CO excretion. Greater band 3 expression by roughly 20% is found in people with the GP.Mur blood type.

Relationships between perceived measures of internal load and wellness status during overseas futsal training camps.

Exercise and sport practitioners frequently utilize rating of perceived exertion (RPE) to evaluate the players' psychophysiological strains during training sessions. The subjective rating of physical exertion level during sports training has been shown to have a reciprocal relationship with wellness status during periodic training or competitive seasons. However, the relationship between subjective physical exertions and wellness status during short-term overseas training camps (OTCs) has not been extensively investigated.

Quantification of Respiratory and Muscular Perceived Exertions as Perceived Measures of Internal Loads During Domestic and Overseas Training Camps in Elite Futsal Players.

Background: The rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scales with respiratory and muscular illustrations are recognized as simple and practical methods to understand individual psychometric characteristics in breathing and muscle exertion during exercise. However, the implementation of respiratory and muscular RPE to quantify training load in futsal training camps has not been examined. This study investigates respiratory and muscular RPE relationships during domestic training camps (DTC) and overseas training camps (OTC) in an under 20 futsal national team.

Dynamic Optical Visualization of Proton Transport Pathways at Water-Solid Interfaces.

Probing proton transport is of vital importance for understanding cellular transport, surface catalysis and fuel cells. Conventional proton transport measurements rely on the use of electrochemical conductivity and do not allow for the direct visualization of proton transport pathways. The development of novel experimental techniques to spatiotemporally resolve proton transport is in high demand.

Direct imaging of single-molecule electrochemical reactions in solution.

Chemical reactions tend to be conceptualized in terms of individual molecules transforming into products, but are usually observed in experiments that probe the average behaviour of the ensemble. Single-molecule methods move beyond ensemble averages and reveal the statistical distribution of reaction positions, pathways and dynamics. This has been shown with optical traps and scanning probe microscopy manipulating and observing individual reactions at defined locations with high spatial resolution, and with modern optical methods using ultrasensitive photodetectors that enable high-throughput single-molecule measurements.

Psychobiological Changes during National Futsal Team Training Camps and Their Relationship with Training Load.

The aim of this study was two-fold: (1) to analyze the within-week variations of heart rate, session-rated of perceived exertion (sRPE), total distance, distance in 8.0-11.99 km/h, recovery distance in 12.

Ultra-short-term and Short-term Heart Rate Variability Recording during Training Camps and an International Tournament in U-20 National Futsal Players.

The aim of this study was to examine ultra-short-term and short-term heart rate variability (HRV) in under-20 (U-20) national futsal players during pre-tournament training camps and an official tournament. Fourteen male U-20 national futsal players (age = 18.07 ± 0.

Deoxyelephantopin suppresses hepatic stellate cells activation associated with inhibition of aerobic glycolysis via hedgehog pathway.

Accumulating evidence suggests that hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) adopt aerobic glycolysis during activation. Hedgehog (Hh) pathway plays a vital role in the process of HSCs activation by regulating metabolism, and activation of the Hh pathway promotes transdifferentiation of HSCs into myofibroblasts. Deoxyelephantopin (DET), a naturally occurring sesquiterpene lactone from Elephantopus scaber, has been shown to exert hepatoprotective as well as anticancer effects.

Removal of all mosaic grating errors in a single-interferometer system by a phase-difference reference window.

An interference method to remove all mosaic grating errors using a phase-difference reference window without compensation for coupled mosaic errors or analyzing the far-field diffraction intensity patterns is proposed. The reference window is achieved by adding a small-aperture prism; therefore, the incident light on the mosaic gratings contains two different angles of incidence and optical paths, eliminating the uncertainty of longitudinal mosaic error in the interferometer. The mathematical model of the method is established and optical arrangement is presented.

High-accuracy spectral reduction algorithm for the échelle spectrometer.

A spectral reduction algorithm for an échelle spectrometer with spherical mirrors that builds a one-to-one correspondence between the wavelength and pixel position is proposed. The algorithm accuracy is improved by calculating the offset distance of the principal ray from the center of the image plane in the two-dimensional vertical direction and compensating the spectral line bending from the reflecting prism. The simulation and experimental results verify that the maximum deviation of the entire image plane is less than one pixel.
