Rectangular Improvement Method for Plan View Pattern of Plates During the Angular Rolling Process.

The effect of the angular rolling process on the plan view pattern of a plate was studied, and the rectangular influencing factors and improvement methods for this process were proposed in this paper. DEFORM (v11.0) finite element software was used to simulate the processes of conventional rolling and angular rolling, and the degree of rectangularity of plates under different rolling process conditions was compared.

DRN facilitates WUS transcriptional regulatory activity by chromatin remodeling to regulate shoot stem cell homeostasis in Arabidopsis.

Shoot stem cells, harbored in the shoot apical meristem (SAM), play key roles during post-embryonic development of Arabidopsis and function as the origin of plant aerial tissues. Multiple transcription factors are involved in the sophisticated transcriptional regulation of stem cell homeostasis, with the WUSCHEL (WUS)/CLAVATA3 (CLV3) negative feedback loop playing a central role. WUS acts as a master regulator in maintaining stem cells through its transcriptional regulatory activity including repressive and activating abilities.

Heat stress-induced decapping of WUSCHEL mRNA enhances stem cell thermotolerance in Arabidopsis.

The plasticity of stem cells in response to environmental change is critical for multicellular organisms. Here, we show that MYB3R-like directly activates the key plant stem-cell regulator WUSCHEL (WUS) by recruiting the methyltransferase ROOT INITIATION DEFECTIVE 2 (RID2), which functions in m7G methylation of the 5' cap of WUS mRNA to protect it from degradation. Transcriptomic and molecular analyses showed that protein-folding genes are repressed by WUS to maintain precise protein synthesis in stem cells by preventing the reuse of misfolded proteins.

Surface-enhanced Raman scatting microfluidic chip based on the identification competition strategy were used for rapid and simultaneous detection of liver cancer related proteins.

Biomarker testing plays a crucial role in the early detection of liver cancer. Herein, we developed a dual-signal amplification approach utilizing magnetic aggregation and a recognition competition strategy for the simultaneous detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) and manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) in serum. 4-MBA@AuNPs@H1 and DTNB@AuNPs@H2 were synthesized by functionalizing Raman signaling molecules and aptamer complementary chains onto the surface of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).

Control of DNA demethylation by superoxide anion in plant stem cells.

Superoxide anion is thought to be a natural by-product with strong oxidizing ability in all living organisms and was recently found to accumulate in plant meristems to maintain stem cells in the shoot and undifferentiated meristematic cells in the root. Here we show that the DNA demethylase repressor of silencing 1 (ROS1) is one of the direct targets of superoxide in stem cells. The Fe-S clusters in ROS1 are oxidized by superoxide to activate its DNA glycosylase/lyase activity.

Molecular Diversity of Ectomycorrhizal Fungi in Relation to the Diversity of Neighboring Plant Species.

(1) Background: Plant diversity has long been assumed to predict soil microbial diversity. The mutualistic symbiosis between forest trees and ectomycorrhizal (EM) fungi favors strong correlations of EM fungal diversity with host density in terrestrial ecosystems. Nevertheless, in contrast with host tree effects, neighboring plant effects are less well studied.

The Effect of Lidocaine-Prilocaine Cream Combined with or Without Remimazolam on VAS and APAIS Anxiety Score in Patient Undergoing Spinal Anesthesia.

Methods: Patients undergoing spinal anesthesia were divided into control, lidocaine-prilocaine cream, and lidocaine-prilocaine cream with remimazolam groups. A questionnaire consisting of The Amsterdam Preoperative Anxiety and Information Scale (APAIS) and patient's concerns and Visual Analog Scale (VAS) was used to evaluate patient's anxiety and pain.

Fast flow field prediction of pollutant leakage diffusion based on deep learning.

Predicting pollutant leakage and diffusion processes is crucial for ensuring people's safety. While the deep learning method offers high simulation efficiency and superior generalization, there is currently a lack of research on predicting pollutant leakage and diffusion flow field using deep learning. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct further studies in this area.

Atypical and variable attention patterns reveal reduced contextual priors in children with autism spectrum disorder.

Accumulating evidence suggests that individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) show impairments in using contextual priors to predict others' actions and make intention inference. Yet less is known about whether and how children with ASD acquire contextual priors during action observation and how contextual priors relate to their action prediction and intention inference. To form proper contextual priors, individuals need to observe the social scenes in a reliable manner and focus on socially relevant information.

Brain regions differences in amyloid-β and gene expression in early APP/PS1 mice and identification ofNpas4 as a key molecule in Alzheimer's disease.

Distinct brain regions are differentially affected during the various stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). While the hippocampus and cortex are known to play significant roles, the involvement of the cerebellum has received less attention. Understanding the changes in diverse brain regions is essential to unravel the neuropathological mechanism in early-stage AD.

Using individualized structural covariance networks to analyze the heterogeneity of cerebral small vessel disease with cognitive impairment.

Background: Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) includes vascular disorders characterized by heterogeneous pathomechanisms and different neuropathological clinical manifestations. Cognitive dysfunction in CSVD is associated with reductions in structural covariance networks (SCNs). A majority of research conducted on SCNs focused on group-level analysis.

OsNLP3 enhances grain weight and reduces grain chalkiness in rice.

Grain weight, a key determinant of yield in rice (Oryza sativa L.), is governed primarily by genetic factors, whereas grain chalkiness, a detriment to grain quality, is intertwined with environmental factors such as mineral nutrients. Nitrogen (N) is recognized for its effect on grain chalkiness, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain to be clarified.

Plant regeneration in the new era: from molecular mechanisms to biotechnology applications.

Plants or tissues can be regenerated through various pathways. Like animal regeneration, cell totipotency and pluripotency are the molecular basis of plant regeneration. Detailed systematic studies on Arabidopsis thaliana gradually unravel the fundamental mechanisms and principles underlying plant regeneration.

[Machine learning algorithms for identifying autism spectrum disorder through eye-tracking in different intention videos].

Objectives: To investigate the differences in visual perception between children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and typically developing (TD) children when watching different intention videos, and to explore the feasibility of machine learning algorithms in objectively distinguishing between ASD children and TD children.

Methods: A total of 58 children with ASD and 50 TD children were enrolled and were asked to watch the videos containing joint intention and non-joint intention, and the gaze duration and frequency in different areas of interest were used as original indicators to construct classifier-based models. The models were evaluated in terms of the indicators such as accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity.

Migration and transformation of Pb, Cu, and Zn during co-combustion of high-chlorine-alkaline coal and Si/Al dominated coal.

Shaerhu (SEH) coal is abundant in Xinjiang, China. The utilization of SEH suffers from severe ash deposition, slagging, and fouling problems due to its high-chlorine-alkaline characteristics. The co-combustion of high-alkaline coal and other type coals containing high Si/Al oxides has been proven to be a simple and effective method that will alleviate ash-related problems, but the risk of heavy metals (HMs) contamination in this process is nonnegligible.

Root-specific photoreception directs early root development by HY5-regulated ROS balance.

Root development is tightly controlled by light, and the response is thought to depend on signal transmission from the shoot. Here, we show that the root apical meristem perceives light independently from aboveground organs to activate the light-regulated transcription factor (). The ROS balance between HO and superoxide anion in the root is disturbed under darkness with increased HO.

Tipping the balance: The dynamics of stem cell maintenance and stress responses in plant meristems.

Plant meristems contain pools of dividing stem cells that produce new organs for plant growth and development. Environmental factors, including biotic and abiotic stresses and nutrient availability, affect meristem activity and thus the architecture of roots and shoots; understanding how meristems react to changing environmental conditions will shed light on how plants optimize nutrient acquisition and acclimate to different environmental conditions. This review highlights recent exciting advances in this field, mainly in Arabidopsis.

Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is the result of an autoimmune process that occurs as a rapidly advancing encephalopathy. Autoimmune encephalitis was commonly linked to herpes simplex virus 1 (HSV-1) as the most frequently identified virus. The main areas affected by this invasion are the temporal lobe, frontal lobe, and limbic system.

Identification of differentially expressed exosome proteins in serum as potential biomarkers for cognitive impairments in cerebral small vessel disease.

Background: Cognitive impairment arising from cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) represents a critical subtype of vascular cognitive impairments (VCI) and is the primary cause of vascular dementia. However, identifying reliable clinical and laboratory indicators for this disease remain elusive. We hypothesize that plasma exosome proteins hold the potential to serve as biomarkers for the onset of cognitive dysfunction associated with cerebrovascular diseases.
