Large-bodied pelagic sharks are key regulators of oceanic ecosystem stability, but highly impacted by severe overfishing. One such species, the shortfin mako shark (), a globally widespread, highly migratory predator, has undergone dramatic population reductions and is now Endangered (IUCN Red List), with Atlantic Ocean mako sharks in particular assessed by fishery managers as overfished and in need of urgent, improved management attention. Genomic-scale population assessments for this apex predator species have not been previously available to inform management planning; thus, we investigated the population genetics of mako sharks across the Atlantic using a bi-organelle genomics approach.

BACKGROUND Extracorporeal blood purification strategies were recently developed as adjunctive treatments for sepsis. CytoSorb® is an approved medical device designed to reduce blood levels of inflammatory cytokines. The oXiris high-adsorption membrane filter is used in continuous hemofiltration adsorption.

Nanohybrids combining phenylboronic acid-modified carbon dots (PCDs) and proteinase K have been engineered for addressing the formidable challenges of antimicrobial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) against bacterial biofilm infections, overcoming biofilm barrier obstruction, the limited diffusion of reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the inadequate ROS generation of traditional photosensitizers. PCDs are formulated for superior water solubility and robust singlet oxygen (O) production, mitigating issues related to dispersion and aggregation-induced quenching typical of conventional photosensitizers. The conjugation of phenylboronic acid to CDs not only enhanced O generation through increased electron-hole separation but also imparted strong bacterial binding capabilities to the PCDs, enabling broad-spectrum sterilization by maximizing the ROS-mediated bacterial destruction.

As one of the significant air pollutants, nitrogen oxides (NO = NO + NO) not only pose a great threat to human health, but also contribute to the formation of secondary pollutants such as ozone and nitrate particles. Due to substantial uncertainties in bottom-up emission inventories, simulated concentrations of air pollutants using GEOS-Chem model often largely biased from those of ground-level observations. To address this issue, we developed a new deep learning model to simulate the inverse process of the GEOS-Chem model.
