Two representative thermophilic bacterial strains (T1 and T2) were isolated from a one-stage autothermal thermophilic aerobic digestion pilot-scale reactor. 16S rRNA gene analysis indicated that they were Hydrogenophilaceae and Xanthomonodaceae. These isolated strains were inoculated separately and/or jointly in sewage sludge, to investigate their effects on sludge stabilization under thermophilic aerobic digestion condition. Four digestion conditions were tested for 480 h. Digestion without inoculation and inoculation with strain T2, as well as joint- inoculation with strains T1 and T2, achieved 32.6%, 43.0%, and 38.2% volatile solids (VS) removal, respectively. Removal in a digester inoculated with stain T1 only reached 27.2%. For the first 144 h, the three inoculated digesters all experienced higher VS removal than the digester without inoculations. Both specific thermophilic strains and micro-environment significantly affected the VS removal. DGGE profiles revealed that the isolated strains T1 and T2 can successfully establish in the thermophilic digesters. Other viable bacteria (including anaerobic or facultative microbes) also appeared in the digestion system, enhancing the microbial activity.

Proteomics analysis is crucial for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying muscle adaptations to different types of exercise, such as concentric and eccentric training. Traditional methods like two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and standard mass spectrometry have been used to analyze muscle protein content and modifications. This protocol details the preparation of muscle samples for proteomics analysis using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC).

Physical exercise is beneficial to keep physical and mental health. The molecular mechanisms underlying exercise are still worth exploring. The healthy adult mice after six weeks of moderate-intensity exercise (experimental group) and sedentary mice (control group) were used to perform transcriptomic, proteomic, lactylation modification, and metabolomics analysis.

Background: Lithium (Li) is widely used in the treatment of bipolar disorder, but it may lead to toxicity in the reproductive system. Considering the harmful effect of Li consumption on fertility and the positive effect of magnesium sulfate (MgSo) and moderate-intensity training (MIT) on improving the quality of men's sperm, the current research was conducted to determine the impact of MIT and MgSo on infertility caused by Li.
Materials And Methods: Seventy-two male rats were divided into 12 groups, control, Li10 mg/kg/day/ip, MgSo 80 mg/kg/day/ip; MIT; Li40 mg/kg/day/ip; Li10+MgSo; Li10+MIT; Li10+MgSo+MIT; Li40+MgSo; Li40+MIT; Li40+MgSo+MIT.

Maternal obesity decreases infant energy expenditure, subsequently predisposing infants to greater adiposity and weight gain. Conversely, some findings suggest that maternal exercise may increase infant energy expenditure; however, the impact of maternal exercise mode (i.e.
