Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a "climate change laboratory" for China and the world. Driven by climate change, net primary productivity (NPP) in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has significant variations. Using the data of normalized difference vegetation index, digital elevation, annual precipitation, and annual temperature, we explored the temporal and spatial variation characteristics of NPP and its correlation with climate factors on the Qinghai Tibet Plateau from 2000 to 2020. The results showed that NPP of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau increased significantly from 2000 to 2020, with an increase rate of 1.67 g C·m·a. The NPP was significantly positively correlated with temperature and precipitation. The climate trend of warming and wetting was an important driving force to promote the significant increase of NPP. The increases of NPP would continue if the climate become warmer and wetter.

Quinoa, rich in pharmacologically active ingredients, possesses the potential benefit in preventing cognitive impairments induced by hypoxia. In this study, the efficacy of quinoa ethanol extracts (QEE) consumption (200 and 500 mg/kg/d, respectively) against hypobaric hypoxia (HH)-induced cognitive deficits in mice was investigated. QEE significantly ameliorated hypoxic stress induced by HH, as evidenced by improvements in baseline indices and reductions in hypoxia-inducible factor 1α levels.

Trifluralin (FLL) is extensively used in rapeseed fields in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) region. However, the degradation kinetics of FLL in this area and its impact on environmental microbial communities are not yet known. To investigate the degradation patterns and ecological benefits of FLL, this study established a comprehensive method for detecting FLL residues and selected efficient degrading bacterial strains.

The magnetization strategy of isoquinoline alkaloids has been successfully used in the extraction and isolation, but the effect of the magnetization on biological activities of those alkaloids still deserves further investigation. Therefore, the antibacterial, lipid-lowering and antioxidant activities of five isoquinoline alkaloids (berberine, tetrahydroberberine, palmatine, tetrahydropalmatine and tetrahydropapavine) before and after magnetization were compared in this study, and the results showed that the relevant activities were enhanced after magnetization. Additionally, among the five magnetic derivatives studied, berberine magnetic derivative ([Ber·H][FeCl]) had the best antibacterial effect on S.

Nitric oxide (NO) has been highlighted as a key gaseous signaling molecule in the body, playing a central role in various physiological and pathological processes. However, a comprehensive analysis of NO metabolism dynamics in living cells remains a significant challenge. To address this, we have developed and characterized a novel genetically encoded NO fluorescence sensor, GefiNO, to investigate NO metabolism dynamics in living cells and subcellular organelles.
