Spectroscopic aspects of underwater digital holography of plankton.

Sci Rep

January 2025

Laboratory for Radiophysical and Optical Methods of Environmental Research, National Research Tomsk State University, Tomsk, Russia, 634050.

Monitoring the parameters and behavior of plankton makes it possible to assess the state of the aquatic ecosystem and detect the beginning of an environmental disaster at an early stage. In this respect, the most informative method for the in situ plankton study is underwater digital holography. This method allows obtaining information on the size, shape, and location of plankton individuals, as well as performing their classification and biotesting according to their behavioral responses using a submersible holographic camera non-invasively, in real time, and in the automatic mode.

Approaches to mitigate the severity of infections and of immune responses are still needed for the treatment of cystic fibrosis (CF) even with the success of highly effective modulator therapies. Previous studies identified reduced levels of melatonin in a CF mouse model related to circadian rhythm dysregulation. Melatonin is known to have immunomodulatory properties and it was hypothesized that treatment with melatonin would improve responses to bacterial infection in CF mice.

[Berberine regulates glucose and lipid metabolism via clock-controlled genes to ameliorate insulin resistance of hepatocytes].

Jiangxi Province Key Laboratory of Traditional Chinese Medicine Etiopathogenisis & Research Center for Differentiation and Development of Traditional Chinese Medicine Basic Theory, Jiangxi University of Chinese Medicine Nanchang 330004,China.

This study aims to investigate the mechanism of berberine in regulating the metabolism network via clock-controlled genes represented by brain and muscle arnt-like 1(BMAL1) to ameliorate insulin resistance(IR) of hepatocytes in vitro. The HepG2 cell model of dexamethasone-induced IR(IR-HepG2) was established and treated with 5, 10, and 20 μmol·L~(-1) berberine, respectively, for 24 h. The glucose oxidase method and cell counting kit-8(CCK-8) assay were employed to measure extracellular glucose concentration and cell viability, respectively.

Menstrual variations of sleep-wake rhythms in healthy women.

Sleep Biol Rhythms

January 2025

Laboratory of Animal Physiology, School of Agriculture, Meiji University, 1-1-1 Higashimita, Tama-Ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa 214-8571 Japan.

The ovarian steroid hormones, estrogen and progesterone, the levels of which fluctuate dynamically with the estrous cycle, alter circadian behavioral rhythms in mammals. However, it remains unclear whether the sleep-wake rhythm fluctuates with the menstrual cycle in humans. To ascertain the relationship between the menstrual cycle and sleep-wake rhythms, we evaluated the objective and long-term sleep-wake rhythms of ten healthy women using a recently developed wearable device.

Aim: Exposure to light at night and meal time misaligned with the light/dark (LD) cycle-typical features of daily life in modern 24/7 society-are associated with negative effects on health. To understand the mechanism, we developed a novel protocol of complex chronodisruption (CD) in which we exposed female rats to four weekly cycles consisting of 5-day intervals of constant light and 2-day intervals of food access restricted to the light phase of the 12:12 LD cycle.

Methods: We examined the effects of CD on behavior, estrous cycle, sleep patterns, glucose homeostasis and profiles of clock- and metabolism-related gene expression (using RT qPCR) and liver metabolome and lipidome (using untargeted metabolomic and lipidomic profiling).
