The Chinese government attaches great importance to the ecological restoration of abandoned open-pit mines, increasing the area of cultivated land, and ensuring food security. Soil reconstruction is a crucial step in ecological restoration of abandoned open-pit mines. This study investigated the utilization of hydrophobic sand to create an Air-Permeable Aquiclude (APAC) under the plant root zones, thereby minimizing water infiltration and enhancing soil aeration.

Phototherapy - which includes photothermal therapy (PTT) and photodynamic therapy (PDT) - has evoked interest as a promising cancer treatment modality on account of its noninvasiveness, spatiotemporal precision, and minimal side effects. C. Wang et al.

A critical challenge in ecological restoration of open-pit mine dumps in cold regions with limited topsoil resources is how to rapidly mitigate the plant growth-inhibitory effects of mineral black clay, thereby converting it into arable soil. Leveraging the high degradation capacity of coal seam-associated microorganisms on fossil carbon materials, combined with soil conditioning techniques, this study developed a microbial-based approach for modifying black clay. Seed germination experiments informed both laboratory and field trial designs.

Here, we apply SuperResNET network analysis of dSTORM single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM) to determine how the clathrin endocytosis inhibitors pitstop 2, dynasore and Latrunculin A alter the morphology of clathrin-coated pits. SuperResNET analysis of HeLa and Cos7 cells identifies: small oligomers (Class I); pits and vesicles (Class II); and larger clusters corresponding to fused pits or clathrin plaques (Class III). Pitstop 2 and dynasore induce distinct homogeneous populations of Class II structures in HeLa cells suggesting that they arrest endocytosis at different stages.

Background: Preoperative identification of T-box pituitary transcription factor 19 (TPIT) lineage silent adenomas in non-functioning pituitary adenomas (NFPAs) is important.
Purpose: To compare the clinical, laboratory, and radiological features of the three cell lineages of adenomas in NFPAs and evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of multiple microcysts and clivus invasion on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for TPIT lineage adenomas in NFPAs.
Material And Methods: A total of 405 patients with NFPA were retrospectively enrolled, including steroidogenic factor 1 (SF-1) lineage adenomas (n = 204), TPIT lineage adenomas (n = 111), and pituitary transcription factor 1 (PIT-1) lineage adenomas (n = 90).
