A detailed investigation of the spin-lattice relaxation time, T1, for 207Pb in solid lead nitrate has been undertaken in an effort to understand the mechanism of relaxation. The results show that the 207Pb T1 is independent of magnetic field strength and inversely proportional to the square of the temperature. These are signatures of relaxation by a spin-phonon Raman scattering mechanism. Nuclear spin-lattice relaxation in solid lead salts is more efficient for sites with smaller magnetic shielding anisotropy. A coupling mechanism is proposed whereby phonons create a local magnetic field by modulating the valence electron shell motion relative to the nuclear/electron core. Literature data suggest that spin-phonon scattering is a common relaxation pathway for other spin-1/2 heavy nuclei in solids.

With the intensification of climate change coupled with the inadequate agricultural management in certain regions, plants face numerous challenges due to various abiotic stresses. Stress associated proteins (SAPs) are essential functional genes in plants for coping with stress. This research provides a functional analysis of OsSAP17, a protein belonging to the SAP family in rice.

Background: The hypothalamus is involved in stress regulation and reward processing, with its various nuclei exhibiting unique functions and connections. However, human neuroimaging studies on the hypothalamic subregions are limited in drug addiction. This study examined the volumes and functional connectivity of hypothalamic subregions in individuals with alcohol use disorder (AUD).

Direct chemical vapor deposition growth of high-quality graphene on dielectric substrates is a great challenge. Graphene growth on dielectrics always suffers from the issues of a high nucleation density and poor quality. Herein, a premelted-substrate-promoted selective etching (PSE) strategy was proposed.

Previous studies have demonstrated that γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) effectively alleviates heavy metal stresses by maintaining the redox balance and reducing the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). However, little is known about the role of GABA on programmed cell death (PCD) under Cd treatments in plants. The present study investigated the effects of GABA on Cd-induced PCD in two species, oilseed rape (, ), and black mustard (, ).

Diacylglycerol kinase δ (DGKδ) phosphorylates diacylglycerol to produce phosphatidic acid. Previously, we demonstrated that down-regulation of DGKδ suppresses the myogenic differentiation of C2C12 myoblasts. However, the myogenic roles of DGKδ in vivo remain unclear.
