Abstract
Nanostructures composed of liposomes and polydopamine (PDA) have demonstrated efficacy as carriers for delivering plasmids, effectively alleviating renal cell carcinoma. However, their role in acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the effects of the plasmid-encoded lncRNA-OIP5-AS1@PDA nanoparticles (POP-NPs) on renal ischemia/reperfusion (RI/R) injury and explore the underlying mechanisms. RI/R or OGD/R models were established in mice and HK-2 cells, respectively. In vivo, vector or POP-NPs were administered (10 nmol, IV) 48 h after RI/R treatment. In the RI/R mouse model, the OIP5-AS1 and Nrf2/HO-1 expressions were down-regulated, while miR-410-3p expression was upregulated. POP-NPs treatment effectively reversed RI/R-induced renal tissue injury, restoring altered levels of blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, malondialdehyde, inflammatory factors (IL-8, IL-6, TNF-α), ROS, apoptosis, miR-410-3p, as well as the suppressed expression of SOD and Nrf2/HO-1 in the model mice. Similar results were obtained in cell models treated with POP-NPs. Additionally, miR-410-3p mimics could reverse the effects of POP-NPs on cellular models, partially counteracted by Nrf2 agonists. The binding relationship between OIP5-AS1 and miR-410-3p, alongside miR-410-3p and Nrf2, has been substantiated by dual-luciferase reporter and RNA pull-down assays. The study revealed that POP-NPs can attenuate RI/R-induced injury through miR-410-3p/Nrf2 axis. These findings lay the groundwork for future targeted therapeutic approaches utilizing nanoparticles for RI/R-induced AKI.

Abstract
With the rapid development of society, food safety to public health has been a topic that cannot be ignored. In recent years, lanthanide-based materials are studied to be potential candidates in the detection of food samples. Cerium (Ce)-based materials (such as Ce ions, CeO2, Ce-metal organic framework (Ce-MOF), etc.) have also attracted more attention in food detection by virtue of colorimetric, fluorescence, sensing, and other methods. This is because the mixed valence of Ce (Ce3+ and Ce4+), the formation of oxygen vacancies, and their optical and electrochemical properties. In this review, Ce-based materials will be introduced and discussed in the field of food detection, including biogenesis, construction, catalytic mechanisms, combination, and applications. In addition, the current challenges and future development trend of these Ce-based materials in food safety detection are also proposed and discussed. Therefore, it is meaningful to explore the Ce-based materials for detection of biomarkers in food samples.

Abstract
Malachite green (MG) possesses high toxicity, therefore, the detection of MG in fish tissues is of vital importance. A novel core-shell MIPs doped CdTe quantum dots coated silica nanoparticles (CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs) were synthesized via a simple one-pot strategy. The materials were characterized carefully. The resulting CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs were coated on the thin layer chromatography plate, and coupled with miniaturized fluorimeter for fluorescence detection of MG in fish samples. The resulting CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs based system possessed good linearity (0.01 ∼ 20 μmol/L), high recoveries (98.36 %∼101.45 %) and low detection limit (3.7 nmol/L) for MG. Furthermore, CdTe-MIP/SiO2 NPs based system were employed to measure fish samples spiked with MG, meanwhile, HPLC was utilized to evaluate the accuracy and reliability. And the paired t-test was conducted to evaluate differences between fluorescence method and HPLC, P > 0.05 means no significant difference was observed, the results demonstrated that both fluorescence method and HPLC are suitable for MG analysis.

Abstract
Viscosity is a pivotal component in the cell microenvironment, while lysosomal viscosity fluctuation is associated with various human diseases, such as tumors and liver diseases. Herein, a near-infrared fluorescent probe (BIMM) based on merocyanine dyes was designed and synthesized for detecting lysosomal viscosity in live cells and liver tissue. The increase in viscosity restricts the free rotation of single bonds, leading to enhanced fluorescence intensity. BIMM exhibits high sensitivity and good selectivity, and is applicable to a wide pH range. BIMM has near-infrared emission, and the fluorescent intensity shows an excellent linear relationship with viscosity. Furthermore, BIMM possessing excellent lysosomes-targeting ability, and can monitor viscosity changes in live cells stimulated by dexamethasone, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and nigericin, and differentiate between cancer cells and normal cells. Noticeably, BIMM can accurately analyze viscosity changes in various liver disease models with HepG2 cells, and is successfully utilized to visualize variations in viscosity on APAP-induced liver injury. All the results demonstrated that BIMM is a powerful wash-free tool to monitor the viscosity fluctuations in living systems.

Abstract
Asian over-land aerosols are complexities due to a mixture of anthropogenic air pollutants and natural dust. The accuracy of the aerosol optical thickness (AOT) retrieved from the satellite is crucial to their application in the aerosol data assimilation system. Fusion of AOTs with high spatiotemporal resolution from next-generation geostationary satellites such as Fengyun-4B (FY-4B) and Himawari-9, provides a new high-quality dataset capturing the aerosol spatiotemporal variability for data assimilation. This study develops a complete fusion algorithm to estimate the optimal AOT over-land in Asia from September 2022 to August 2023 at 10 km × 10 km resolution with high efficiency. The data fusion involves four steps: (1) investigating the spatiotemporal variability of FY-4B AOT within the past 1 h and 12 km radius calculation domain; (2) utilizing the aerosol spatiotemporal variability characteristics to estimate FY-4B pure and hourly merged AOTs; (3) performing bias corrections for FY-4B and Himwari-9 hourly merged AOT for different observation times and seasons considering pixel-level errors for each satellite; (4) fusing the bias-corrected FY-4B and Himawari-9 hourly merged AOT based on maximum-likelihood estimation (MLE) method. Compared to the original FY-4B AOT, validation with AERONET observation confirms that the root mean square error (RMSE) of hourly merged FY-4B AOT decreases by around 40.6 % and the correlation coefficient (CORR) increases by about 27.8 %. Compared to FY-4B and Himawari-9 merged AOT, the fused AOT significantly decreases (increases) RMSE (CORR) by around 24.7 % (7.3 %) and 20.2 % (5.6 %). In addition, fused AOT is double the number of single-sensor merged AOT. Fusion aerosol map accurately describes the spatial and temporal variations in Asian regions controlled by air pollution and dust storms. Further studies are required for other landscapes with different satellite combinations to promote the application in the data assimilation system.

Abstract
Clay minerals formations are potential geological barrier (host rocks) for the long-rerm storage of uranium tailing in deep geological repositories. However, there are still obstacles to the efficient retardation of uranium because of the competition between negatively charged regions at the clay minerals end face, surface and between layers, as well as low mineralization capacity. Herein, employing a simple method, we used sodium alginate (SA), an inexpensive natural polymer material, polyethylene (PE), and the natural clay minerals montmorillonite (Mt), nontronite (Nt), and beidellite (Bd) to prepare three hydrogel adsorbents, (denoted as Mt/PE-@SA, Nt/PE-@SA, and Bd/PE-@SA), respectively. The application of obtained hydrogel adsorbents further extends to uranium(VI) removal from aqueous. Due to the synergistic action of SA group and PE group, hydrogel adsorbents showed select adsorption and mineralization effect on uranium(VI), among which the maximum uranium(VI) adsorption capacity of Nt/PE-@SA was 133.3 mg·g-1 and Mt/PE-@SA exhibited strong selectivity for uranium(VI) in the presence of coexisting metal ions. Cyclic voltammetry studies indicated the mitigation and immobilization of uranium species onto adsorbents by both reduction and mineralization. Besides, the synergistic adsorption of SA and PE on clay minerals was hypothesized, and the idea was supported by structure optimizations results from Monte Carlo dynamics simulation (MCD). Three obtained hydrogel adsorbents structural model was constructed based on its physicochemical characterization, the low energy adsorption sites and adsorption energies are investigated using MCD simulation. The simulation results show that obtained hydrogel adsorbents have a strong interaction with uranium(VI), which ensures the high adsorption capacity of those materials. Most importantly, this work demonstrates a new strategy for preparing mineral-based hydrogel adsorbents with enough stability and provides a new perspective for uranium(VI) removal in complex environment.

Abstract
Ecological compensation is an effective means to reconcile the imbalance of eco-social development between regions and promote enthusiasm for ecological environmental protection. There is some conformity between the theory of ecosystem service flow and ecological compensation, which provides new technical support for the formulation of ecological compensation policy. This study took the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau as the research area, adopted the breaking point model to obtain the spatial characteristics of carbon sequestration flow, and formulated a multilevel ecological compensation policy with Tibet as the design object. The results showed that most of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has a carbon sequestration surplus; the central and eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, western Sichuan are successively carbon sequestration supply areas; the Chengdu Plain and Xinjiang were listed as carbon sequestration benefit areas; and the carbon sequestration tended to flow more closely between supply and benefit areas in proximity to each other. Nyingchi, Chamdo, Naqu and Shannan in Tibet need to receive a total ecological compensation of 393.21 million USD, of which 93.71 % is from the national level, 6.02 % is from carbon sequestration benefit areas in other provinces; furthermore, Lhasa and Shigatse in Tibet need to provide the remaining ecological compensation. This study offers innovations for the formulation of ecological compensation policies and provide a new theory for ecological environment management.

Abstract
Implantable biomaterials and biosensors are integral components of modern medical systems but often encounter hindrances due to the foreign body response (FBR). Herein, we report an albumin coating strategy aimed at addressing this challenge. Using a facile and scalable silane coupling strategy, human serum albumin (HSA) is covalently grafted to the surface of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) implants. This covalently grafted albumin coating remains stable and resistant to displacement by other proteins. Notably, the PDMS with covalently grafted HSA strongly resists the fibrotic capsule formation following a 180-day subcutaneous implantation in C57BL/6 mice. Furthermore, the albumin coating led to reduced recruitment of macrophages and triggered a mild immune activation pattern. Exploration of albumin coatings sourced from various mammalian species has shown that only HSA exhibited a promising anti-FBR effect. The albumin coating method reported here holds the potential to improve and extend the function of silicone-based implants by mitigating the host responses to subcutaneously implanted biomaterials.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aims of this study were to describe the national distribution of depressive symptoms in Chinese children and adolescents, to examine the determinants of depressive symptoms at individual, school and province levels and to assess the gender and age differences in the effect of school factors on depressive symptoms. STUDY DESIGN This was a national cross-sectional study. METHODS A school-based online survey was conducted in mainland China from between December 1, 2021, and January 1, 2022. A total of 398,520 eligible participants were included in the analysis. School-level data were drawn from students, headteachers and Baidu Maps, and province-level data were obtained from the national human development report. The Patient Health Questionnaire-2 was used to measure depressive symptoms. RESULTS Areas with the highest mean scores for depressive symptoms were in the northeastern, inner central and southwestern regions of China. At the individual level, younger age, male sex, being an only child, Han ethnicity, lower body mass index, more days of exercise, less drinking and smoking behaviours, higher subjective family socio-economic status (SES) and popularity in school were related to fewer depressive symptoms; however, objective family SES and maternal education were not related to fewer depressive symptoms. The school-level variables of public status, psychological activities and psychological courses and province-level variable of higher Human Development Index were associated with fewer depressive symptoms. The effect of psychological courses and activities on depressive symptoms was greater in females. CONCLUSIONS The results showed multilevel factors related to depressive symptoms and emphasised the importance of implementing school-based psychological activities to ameliorate depressive symptoms in Chinese children and adolescents across age and gender.

Abstract
Zoogloea sp. MFQ7 achieved excellent denitrification of 91.71% at ferrous to manganous ratio (Fe/Mn) of 3:7, pH of 6.5, nitrate concentration of 25 mg L-1 and carbon to nitrogen ratio of 1.5. As the Fe/Mn ratio increasd, the efficiency of nitrate removal gradually decreased, indicating that strain MFQ7 had a higher affinity for Mn2+ than Fe2+. In situ generated biogenic Fe-Mn oxides (BFMO) contained many iron-manganese oxides (MnO2, Mn3O4, FeO(OH), Fe2O3, and Fe3O4) as well as reactive functional groups, which play an significant part in tetracycline (TC) and cadmium (Cd2+) adsorption. The adsorption of TC and Cd2+ by BFMO can better fit the pseudo-second-order and Langmuir models. In addition, multiple characterization results of before and after adsorption indicated that the removal mechanism of BFMO on TC and Cd2+ was probably surface complexation adsorption and redox reactions.

Abstract
Acute rejection is a life-threatening complication after liver transplantation. Immunosuppressants such as tacrolimus are used to inhibit acute rejection of liver grafts in clinic. However, inefficient intragraft accumulation may reduce the therapeutic outcomes of tacrolimus. Here, an enzyme-responsive nanoparticle is developed to selectively enhance the accumulation of tacrolimus in liver allograft through enzyme-induced aggregation to refine immunotherapeutic efficacy of tacrolimus. The nanoparticles are composed of amphiphilic tacrolimus prodrugs synthesized by covalently conjugating tacrolimus and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9)-cleavable peptide-containing methoxy poly (ethylene glycol) to poly (l-glutamic acid). Upon exposure to MMP9, which is overexpressed in rejected liver allografts, the nanoparticles undergo a morphological transition from spherical micellar nanoparticles to microscale aggregate-like scaffolds. Intravenous administration of MMP9-responsive nanoparticles into a rat model of acute liver graft rejection results in enhanced nanoparticle accumulation in allograft as compared to nonresponsive nanoparticles. Consequently, the MMP9-responsive nanoparticles significantly inhibit intragraft inflammatory cell infiltration and proliferation, maintain intragraft immunosuppressive environment, alleviate graft damage, improve liver allograft function, abate weight loss and prolong recipient survival. This work proves that morphology-switchable enzyme-responsive nanoparticles represent an innovative strategy for selectively enhancing intragraft accumulation of immunosuppressive agents to improve treatment of liver allograft rejection.

Abstract
Mitochondriopathy inspired adenosine triphosphate (ATP) depletions have been recognized as a powerful way for controlling tumor growth. Nevertheless, selective sequestration or exhaustion of ATP under complex biological environments remains a prodigious challenge. Harnessing the advantages of in vivo self-assembled nanomaterials, we designed an Intracellular ATP Sequestration (IAS) system to specifically construct nanofibrous nanostructures on the surface of tumor nuclei with exposed ATP binding sites, leading to highly efficient suppression of bladder cancer by induction of mitochondriopathy-like damages. Briefly, the reported transformable nucleopeptide (NLS-FF-T) self-assembled into nuclear-targeted nanoparticles with ATP binding sites encapsulated inside under aqueous conditions. By interaction with KPNA2, the NLS-FF-T transformed into a nanofibrous-based ATP trapper on the surface of tumor nuclei, which prevented the production of intracellular energy. As a result, multiple bladder tumor cell lines (T24, EJ and RT-112) revealed that the half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) of NLS-FF-T was reduced by approximately 4-fold when compared to NLS-T. Following intravenous administration, NLS-FF-T was found to be dose-dependently accumulated at the tumor site of T24 xenograft mice. More significantly, this IAS system exhibited an extremely antitumor efficacy according to the deterioration of T24 tumors and simultaneously prolonged the overall survival of T24 orthotopic xenograft mice. Together, our findings clearly demonstrated the therapeutic advantages of intracellular ATP sequestration-induced mitochondriopathy-like damages, which provides a potential treatment strategy for malignancies.

Abstract
Glycogen, a complex branched glucose polymer and a blood-sugar reservoir in animals, comprises small β particles joined together into composite α particles. In diabetic animals, α particles fragment more easily than those in healthy animals. Finding evidence for or against postulated mechanisms for α-particle formation is thus important for diabetes research. Insight into this is obtained here using Monte-Carlo simulations, including addition and loss of glucose monomer, branching and debranching, based on earlier simulations which were in acceptable agreement with experiment [Zhang et al., Int J Biol Macromolecules 2018, 116, 264]. One postulated mechanism for α-particle formation is "budding": occasionally a glucan chain temporarily protrudes from the particle, and if its growing end is sufficiently far from its parent particle, it propagates to a new linked particle. We tested this by simulations in which an "artificial" bud (a chain extending well outside the average particle radius) is added to a glycogen molecule in a dynamic steady state, and the system allowed to evolve. In some simulations, the particle reached a new steady state having an irregular dumbbell shape: a rudimentary α particle. Thus 'budding' is a possible mechanism for α particles to form. If no simulations had shown this behaviour, it would have refuted the postulate.

Abstract
Bromodomain-containing protein 4 (BRD4) is the most well-studied BET protein that is important for the innate immune response. We recently revealed that targeting BRD4 triggers apoptosis in tumor-associated macrophages, but its role in synovial macrophages and joint inflammation is largely unknown. Herein, we demonstrated that BRD4 was highly expressed in the iNOS-positive M1 macrophages in the human and mouse osteoarthritis (OA) synovium, and conditional knockout of BRD4 in the myeloid lineage using Lyz2-cre; BRD4flox/flox mice significantly abolished anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT)-induced M1 macrophage accumulation and synovial inflammation. Accordingly, we successfully constructed apoptotic body-inspired phosphatidylserine-containing nanoliposomes (PSLs) loaded with the BRD4 inhibitor JQ1 to regulate inflammatory macrophages. JQ1-loaded PSLs (JQ1@PSLs) exhibited a higher cellular uptake by macrophages than fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) in vitro and in vivo, as well as the reduction in proinflammatory M1 macrophage polarization. Intra-articular injections of JQ1@PSLs showed prolonged retention within the joint, and remarkably reduced synovial inflammation and joint pain via suppressing M1 polarization accompanied by reduced TRPA1 expression by targeted inhibition of BRD4 in the macrophages, thus attenuating cartilage degradation during OA development. The results show that BRD4-inhibiting JQ1@PSLs can targeted-modulate macrophage polarization, which opens a new avenue for efficient OA therapy via a "Trojan horse".

Abstract
This study aimed to provide more information for prognostic stratification for patients through an analysis of the T-cell spatial landscape. It involved analyzing stained tissue sections of 80 patients with stage III lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) using multiplex immunofluorescence and exploring the spatial landscape of T cells and their relationship with prognosis in the center of the tumor (CT) and invasive margin (IM). In this study, multivariate regression suggested that the relative clustering of CT CD4+ conventional T cell (Tconv) to inducible Treg (iTreg), natural regulatory T cell (nTreg) to Tconv, terminal CD8+ T cell (tCD8) to helper T cell (Th), and IM Treg to tCD8 and the relative dispersion of CT nTreg to iTreg, IM nTreg to nTreg were independent risk factors for DFS. Finally, we constructed a spatial immunological score named the GT score, which had stronger prognostic correlation than IMMUNOSCORE® based on CD3/CD8 cell densities. The spatial layout of T cells in the tumor microenvironment and the proposed GT score can reflect the prognosis of patients with stage III LUAD more effectively than T-cell density. The exploration of the T-cell spatial landscape may suggest potential cell-cell interactions and therapeutic targets and better guide clinical decision-making. © 2024 The Pathological Society of Great Britain and Ireland.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The study aimed to investigate the relationship between uric acid (UA) levels and functional outcomes at 3 months in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) who underwent intravenous thrombolysis (IVT). METHODS AND RESULTS This prospective cohort study included 1001 consecutive patients with AIS who underwent IVT. The correlation between UA levels and post-IVT AIS outcomes was examined. Any nonlinear relationship was assessed using a restricted cubic spline function. The nonlinear P value for the association of UA levels with favorable (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score ≤2) and excellent (mRS score ≤1) outcomes at 3 months post-IVT were <0.001 and 0.001, respectively. However, for patients with and without hyperuricemia, no evident nonlinear relationship was observed between UA levels and favorable 3-month post-IVT outcomes, with nonlinear P values of 0.299 and 0.207, respectively. The corresponding interaction analysis yielded a P value of 0.001, indicating significant heterogeneity. Similar results were obtained for excellent outcomes at 3 months post-IVT. In the hyperuricemia group, increased UA levels by 50 μmol/L reduced the odds of a favorable 3-month post-AIS outcome (odds ratio [OR], 0.75 [95% CI, 0.57-0.97]). Conversely, in the nonhyperuricemia group, a similar UA increase was linked to higher favorable outcome odds (OR, 1.31 [95% CI, 1.15-1.50]). CONCLUSIONS An inverted U-shaped nonlinear relationship was observed between UA levels and favorable and excellent outcomes at 3 months in patients with AIS who underwent IVT. Higher UA levels predict favorable outcomes in patients without hyperuricemia but unfavorable outcomes in those with hyperuricemia.

Abstract
The development of efficient defluorination technology is an important issue because the kind of emerging pollutant of hexafluoropropylene oxide dimer acid (GenX) as an alternative to perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) has the higher environmental risks. In the UV/bisulfite system, we first developed a hydrophobic confined α-Fe2O3 nanoparticle layer rich in oxygen vacancies, which accelerated the enrichment of HSO3- and GenX on the surface and pores through electrostatic attraction and hydrophobic interaction, retaining more hydrated electrons (eaq-) and rapidly destroying GenX under UV excitation. Especially, under anaerobic and aerobic conditions, the degradation percentage of GenX obtain nearly 100%, defluorination of GenX to 88 and 57% respectively. It was amazed to find that the three parallel H/F exchange pathways triggered by the rapid reactions of eaq- and GenX, which were unique to anaerobic conditions, improved the efficiency of fluoride removal and weaken the interference of dissolved oxygen and H+. Therefore, this study provided an available material and mechanism for sustainable fluoride removal from wastewater in aerobic and anaerobic conditions.

Abstract
Northwest China has been experiencing severe land degradation for a long time due to various natural and social elements. Evaluating and analyzing the process of occurrence and driving mechanism of land degradation sensitivity in this area is crucial for enhancing the local ecological environment. In this study, 18 social and environmental elements were used to construct a land degradation sensitivity index (LDSI) evaluation system in the area from vegetation, climate, management, soil, and geomorphology five factors. The spatio-temporal characteristics of LDSI in Northwest China from 2000 to 2020 were evaluated on the basis of analyzing the developmental changes of each factor. Correlation analysis and multiscale geographical weighting regression (MGWR) were used to reveal the driving mechanism of land degradation sensitivity. The results indicated a high level of land degradation sensitivity in Northwest China, with >66 % of the area (190.96 × 104 km2) in the critical sensitive class from 2000 to 2020. But the land degradation sensitivity decreased in 18.52 % of the area (53.58 × 104 km2) from 2000 to 2020, the overall trend was weakening. The spatial distribution mainly showed stronger sensitivity in the northwest and weaker sensitivity in the southeast. By exploring the driving mechanism of land degradation sensitivity, it was found that vegetation and climate showed a strong correlation, with a correlation coefficient >0.8. Drought resistance played a strong role in the dynamic process of land degradation. The basic dynamic elements showed some spatial variability in land degradation in different regions. This study is of significance for land degradation prevention and sustainable development in Northwest China.

Abstract
Silicon is expected to be used as a high theoretical capacity anode material in lithium-ion batteries with high energy densities. However, the huge volume change incurred when silicon de-embeds lithium ions, leading to destruction of the electrode structure and a rapid reduction in battery capacity. Although binders play a key role in maintaining the stability of the electrode structure, commonly used binders cannot withstand the large volume expansion of the silicon. To alleviate this problem, we propose a PGC cross-linking reconfiguration binder based on poly(acrylic acid) (PAA), gelatin (GN), and β-cyclodextrin (β-CD). Within PGC, PAA supports the main chain and provides a large number of carboxyl groups (-COOH), GN provides rich carboxyl and amide groups that can form a cross-linking network with PAA, and β-CD offers rich hydroxyl groups and a cone-shaped hollow ring structure that can alleviate stress accumulation in the polymer chain by forming a new dynamic cross-linking coordination conformation during stretching. In the half cell, the silicon negative prepared by the PGC binder exhibited a high specific capacity and capacity maintenance ratio, and the specific capacity of the silicon negative electrode prepared by the PGC binder is still 1809 mAh g-1 and the capacity maintenance ratio is 73.76% following 200 cycles at 2 A g-1 current density, indicating that PGC sufficiently maintains the silicon negative structure during the battery cycle. The PGC binder has a simple preparation method and good capacity retention ability, making it a potential reference for the further development of silicon negative electrodes.

Abstract
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) prevalence is rising globally with no pharmacotherapies approved. Hepatic steatosis is closely associated with progression and prognosis of NAFLD. Dapagliflozin, kind of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor, was found to improve NAFLD in clinical trials, while the underlying mechanism remains poorly elucidated. Here, we reported that dapagliflozin effectively mitigated liver injury and relieved lipid metabolism disorders in vivo. Further investigation showed that dapagliflozin markedly suppressed Liver X Receptor α (LXRα)-mediated synthesis of de novo lipids and bile acids (BAs). In AML12 cells, our results proved dapagliflozin decreased lipid contents via inhibiting the expression of LXRα and downstream liposynthesis genes. Proteosome inhibitor MG132 eliminated the effect of dapagliflozin on LXRα-mediated signaling pathway, which suggested that dapagliflozin downregulated LXRα expression through increasing LXRα degradation. Knockdown of LXRα with siRNA abolished the reduction of lipogenesis from dapagliflozin treatment, indicating that LXRα might be the pivotal target for dapagliflozin to exhibit the aforementioned benefits. Furthermore, the data showed that dapagliflozin reversed gut dysbiosis induced by BAs disruption and altered gut microbiota profile to reduce intestinal lipids absorption. Together, our study deciphered a novel mechanism by which dapagliflozin relieved hepatic steatosis and highlighted the potential benefit of dapagliflozin in treating NAFLD.

Abstract
Background The heavy burden of non-communicable chronic diseases (NCDs) and the deficiency of health behaviours (HB) are threatening the middle- and older-aged population in China. However, little is known about the relational mechanism between health shocks (HS) and HBs, while the importance of patients' perception of lifestyle advice (PPLA) to initiate HB is insufficiently emphasised. In this study, we aimed to examine this perception as a mediator between HS and HB and the variety of mediation effects caused by the different contents of lifestyle advice. Methods We retrieved panel data from the two latest waves of a nationally representative cohort, the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS). After constructing well-balanced groups through propensity score matching, we conducted descriptive and multilevel logistic regression analyses to analyse the state of and factors influencing PPLA. We employed the Preacher's Sobel test with 1000 replications bootstrap to examine the mediating effect of PPLA. Results On a sample of 7922 respondents (post-propensity score matching), we found that HSs had a positive direct effect on HB, with observed decreases in smoking and drinking and increases in exercise. A limited and selected perception of lifestyle advice showed a gap between the advice given by providers and perceived by patients, with gender, education level, social support inside the family, self-reported health, comorbidity, treatment regimens, and utilisation of family doctors being significant influencing factors. Nevertheless, any content of lifestyle advice partially mediated the relationship in which HS increases non-addictive HB (exercise), while only the targeted and detailed content of lifestyle advice about corresponding behaviours partially mediated the effect between HS and addictive HB (smoking and drinking). Conclusions This study provides the first evidence that PPLA partially mediates the positive effect of HS on HB. Personalised chronic disease management; targeted advice and interventions; and multiple social resources COULD BE beneficial for patients with HS to initiate HB.

Abstract
In dinitrogen (N2 ) fixation chemistry, bimetallic end-on bridging N2 complexes M(μ-η1 : η1 -N2 )M can split N2 into terminal nitrides and hence attract great attention. To date, only 4d and 5d transition complexes, but none of 3d counterparts, could realize such a transformation. Likewise, complexes {[Cp*Cr(dmpe)]2 (μ-N2 )}0/1+/2+ (1-3) are incapable to cleave N2 , in contrast to their Mo congeners. Remarkably, cross this series the N-N bond length of the N2 ligand and the N-N stretching frequency exhibit unprecedented nonmonotonic variations, and complexes 1 and 2 in both solid and solution states display rare thermally activated ligand-mediated two-center spin transitions, distinct from discrete dinuclear spin crossovers. In-depth analyses using wave function based ab initio calculations reveal that the Cr-N2 -Cr bonding in complexes 1-3 is distinguished by strong multireference character and cannot be described by solely one electron configuration or Lewis structure, and that all intriguing spectroscopic observations originate in their sophisticate multireference electronic structures. More critical is that such multireference bonding of complexes 1-3 is at least a key factor that contributes to their kinetic inertness toward N2 splitting. The mechanistic understanding is then used to rationalize the disparate reactivity of related 3d M(μ-η1 : η1 -N2 )M complexes compared to their 4d and 5d analogs.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION To present the surgical technique and clinical outcomes of modified ileal conduit for pelvic lipomatosis (PL). METHODS From 2020 to 2022, we prospectively enrolled 9 patients with PL undergoing modified ileal conduit. The patient characteristics, perioperative variables, and follow-up outcomes as well as the description of surgical technique were reported. RESULTS All 9 patients successfully completed the operation. Two patients had perioperative complications of Clavien-Dindo grade I. The mean operation time and bleeding volumes were 253±51.4 min and 238.9±196.9 ml, with a mean postoperative follow-up time of 13.0±5.6 months. The postoperative 3-month and 1-year creatinine values were significantly decreased versus the preoperative (P=0.006 and P=0.024). The postoperative 3-month and 1-year eGFR values were significantly increased comapred with those before operation (P=0.0002 and P=0.018). The separation value of left renal pelvis collection system after operation were significantly reduced compared with preoperative evaluation (P=0.023 at 3 month and P=0.042 at 1 year) and so was the right side (P=0.019 and P=0.023). CONCLUSION Modified ileal conduit is safe and feasible for PL. A large sample cohort with long-term follow-up is needed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of PL.

Abstract
Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) artificial ligaments, renowned for their superior mechanical properties, have been extensively adopted in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgeries. However, the inherent bio-inertness of PET introduces formidable barriers to graft-bone integration, a critical aspect of rehabilitation. Previous interventions, ranging from surface roughening to chemical modifications, have aimed to address this challenge; however, consistently effective techniques for inducing graft-bone integration remain scarce. Our study employed advanced surface-coating methodologies to introduce strontium-doped hydroxyapatite (SrHA) onto PET ligaments. Detailed scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examinations revealed a uniform and integrative coating of SrHA on PET fibers. Furthermore, spectroscopic analysis confirmed the steady release of strontium ions from the coated surface under physiological conditions. In-depth cellular studies proved that extracellular strontium emanating from SrHA-coated PET (PET@SrHA) ligaments actively steers the M2 macrophage polarization. Additionally, macrophages (Mφs) manifested a heightened secretion of prohealing cytokines when exposed to PET@SrHA. Subsequent investigations showed that these cytokines acted as mediators, activating integrin signaling pathways among macrophages, vascular endothelial cells, and osteoblasts. As a direct consequence, an increased rate of angiogenesis and osteogenic differentiation was observed, vital for graft-bone integration following ACL reconstruction with PET@SrHA ligaments. From a biochemical standpoint, our results pinpoint strontium ions as influential immunomodulators, sculpting the graft-bone interface's immune environment. This insight presents the SrHA-coating technique as a viable therapeutic strategy, holding sound promise for improving angiogenesis and osseointegration outcomes during ACL reconstruction using PET-based grafts.

Abstract
Eukaryotic initiation translation factor 3 subunit h (EIF3H) plays critical roles in regulating translational initiation and predicts poor cancer prognosis, but the mechanism underlying EIF3H tumorigenesis remains to be further elucidated. Here, we report that EIF3H is overexpressed in colorectal cancer (CRC) and correlates with poor prognosis. Conditional Eif3h deletion suppresses colorectal tumorigenesis in AOM/DSS model. Mechanistically, EIF3H functions as a deubiquitinase for HAX1 and stabilizes HAX1 via antagonizing βTrCP-mediated ubiquitination, which enhances the interaction between RAF1, MEK1 and ERK1, thereby potentiating phosphorylation of ERK1/2. In addition, activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling induces EIF3H expression. EIF3H/HAX1 axis promotes CRC tumorigenesis and metastasis in mouse orthotopic cancer model. Significantly, combined targeting Wnt and RAF1-ERK1/2 signaling synergistically inhibits tumor growth in EIF3H-high patient-derived xenografts. These results uncover the important roles of EIF3H in mediating CRC progression through regulating HAX1 and RAF1-ERK1/2 signaling. EIF3H represents a promising therapeutic target and prognostic marker in CRC.

Abstract
Biological cell membrane featuring smart mass-transport channels and sub-10 nm thickness was viewed as the benchmark inspiring the design of separation membranes; however, constructing highly connective and adaptive pore channels over large-area membranes less than 10 nm in thickness is still a huge challenge. Here, we report the design and fabrication of sub-8 nm networked cage nanofilms that comprise of tunable, responsive organic cage-based water channels via a free-interface-confined self-assembly and crosslinking strategy. These cage-bearing composite membranes display outstanding water permeability at the 10-5 cm2 s-1 scale, which is 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than that of traditional polymeric membranes. Furthermore, the channel microenvironments including hydrophilicity and steric hindrance can be manipulated by a simple anion exchange strategy. In particular, through ionically associating light-responsive anions to cage windows, such 'smart' membrane can even perform graded molecular sieving. The emergence of these networked cage-nanofilms provides an avenue for developing bio-inspired ultrathin membranes toward smart separation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To investigate the role of C-reactive protein (CRP), procalcitonin (PCT), and interleukin-6 (IL-6) as early predictors of infectious complications after laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery. METHODS Patients who underwent laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery between January 2020 and June 2022 were retrospectively enrolled. IL-6, PCT, and CRP levels were assessed before surgery and on postoperative days (PODs) 3 and 5. Differences in serum IL-6, PCT, and CRP levels between the infected and non-infected groups were compared. The diagnostic accuracy was determined using the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). RESULTS A total of 206 patients were enrolled, and 21 patients (10.19%) developed postoperative infections. Serum IL-6, PCT, and CRP levels in the infected group were significantly higher than those in the non-infected group on PODs 3 and 5. IL-6 with an optimal cutoff value of 84.00 pg/mL (AUC 0.84), PCT with an optimal cutoff value of 1.39 ng/mL (AUC 0.80), CRP with an optimal cutoff value of 150.00 mg/L (AUC 0.76) on POD 3 had superior diagnostic accuracy in predicting postoperative infections. Multivariate analysis identified PCT and IL-6 levels on POD 3 as independent risk factors, the AUC of the combination of IL-6 and PCT was 0.89. The Delong test showed no difference between the AUC of IL-6 alone and IL-6 combined with PCT prediction (P = 0.07, Z = 1.81). CONCLUSIONS IL-6 level on POD 3 is an excellent predictor of infectious complications following laparoscopic gastric cancer surgery. Patients with IL-6 levels lower than 84.00 pg/mL on POD 3 can ensure safe early discharge with a low probability of infection.

Abstract
Abrus precatorius is an herbaceous, flowering plant that is widely distributed in tropical and subtropical regions. Its toxic component, known as abrin, is classified as one of the potentially significant biological warfare agents and bioterrorism tools due to its high toxicity. Abrin poisoning can be utilized to cause accidents, suicides, and homicides, which necessitates attention from clinicians and forensic scientists. Although a few studies have recently identified the toxicological and pharmacological mechanisms of abrin, the exact mechanism remains unclear. Furthermore, the clinical symptoms and pathological changes induced by abrin poisoning have not been fully characterized, and there is a lack of standardized methods for jkjl; 'sdfkidentifying biological samples of the toxin. Therefore, there is an urgent need for further toxicopathologic studies and the development of detection methods for abrin in the field of forensic medicine. This review provides an overview of the clinical symptoms, pathological changes, metabolic changes, toxicologic mechanisms, and detection methods of abrin poisoning from the perspective of forensic toxicology. Additionally, the evidence on abrin in the field of forensic toxicology and forensic pathology is discussed. Overall, this review serves as a reference for understanding the toxicological mechanism of abrin, highlighting the clinical applications of the toxin, and aiding in the diagnosis and forensic identification of toxin poisoning.

Abstract
Phase separation inside mammalian cells regulates the formation of the biomolecular condensates that are related to gene expression, signalling, development and disease. However, a large population of endogenous condensates and their candidate phase-separating proteins have yet to be discovered in a quantitative and high-throughput manner. Here we demonstrate that endogenously expressed biomolecular condensates can be identified across a cell's proteome by sorting proteins across varying oligomeric states. We employ volumetric compression to modulate the concentrations of intracellular proteins and the degree of crowdedness, which are physical regulators of cellular biomolecular condensates. The changes in degree of the partition of proteins into condensates or phase separation led to varying oligomeric states of the proteins, which can be detected by coupling density gradient ultracentrifugation and quantitative mass spectrometry. In total, we identified 1,518 endogenous condensate proteins, of which 538 have not been reported before. Furthermore, we demonstrate that our strategy can identify condensate proteins that respond to specific biological processes.

Abstract
Herein, two Laves intermetallic series, ZrCo1.75M0.25 and NbCo1.75M0.25 (M = Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Rh, Pd, Os, Ir, and Pt), were synthesized, and their hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activities were examined to reveal the influence of d electrons to the corresponding HER activities. Owing to the different electronegativity between Zr and Nb (χZr = 1.33; χNb = 1.60), Co and/or M elements receive more electrons in ZrCo1.75M0.25 than that of the Nb one. This leads to the overall weak H adsorption energy (ΔGHad) of ZrCo1.75M0.25 series compared to that of NbCo1.75M0.25 and rationalizes well the superior HER activity of the Rh member compared to that of the Pt one in the ZrCo1.75M0.25 series. Under industrial conditions (333 K, 6.0 M KOH), ZrCo1.75Rh0.25 only requires an overpotential of 110 mV to reach the current density of 500 mA/cm2 and can be operated at high current density over 400 h. This work demonstrates that with a proper combination between elements in intermetallic phases, one can manipulate d electrons of the active metal to be closer to the sweet spot (ΔGHad = 0). The Pt member may no longer exhibit the best HER activity in series, and all elements exhibit the potential to outperform the Pt member in the HER with careful control of the d electron population.

Abstract
The utilization of enteroviruses engineered with reporter genes serves as a valuable tool for advancing our understanding of enterovirus biology and its applications, enabling the development of effective therapeutic and preventive strategies. In this study, our initial attempts to introduce a NanoLuc luciferase (NLuc) reporter gene into recombinant enteroviruses were unsuccessful in rescuing viable progenies. We hypothesized that the size of the inserted tag might be a determining factor in the rescue of the virus. Therefore, we successfully inserted the 11-amino-acid HiBiT tag into the genomes of enterovirus A71 (EV-A71), coxsackievirus A10 (CVA10), coxsackievirus A7 (CVA7), coxsackievirus A16(CVA16), namely EV-A71-HiBiT, CVA16-HiBiT, CVA10-HiBiT, CVA7-HiBiT, and observed that the HiBiT-tagged viruses exhibited remarkably high rescue efficiency. Notably, the HiBiT-tagged enteroviruses displayed comparable characteristics to the wild-type viruses. A direct comparison between CVA16-NLuc and CVA16-HiBiT recombinant viruses revealed that the tiny HiBiT insertion had minimal impact on virus infectivity and replication kinetics. Moreover, these HiBiT-tagged enteroviruses demonstrated high genetic stability in different cell lines over multiple passages. In addition, the HiBiT-tagged viruses were successfully tested in antiviral drug assays, and the sensitivity of the viruses to drugs was not affected by the HiBiT tag. Ultimately, our findings provide definitive evidence that the integration of HiBiT into enteroviruses presents a universal, convenient, and invaluable method for advancing research in the realm of enterovirus virology. Furthermore, HiBiT-tagged enteroviruses exhibit great potential for diverse applications, including the development of antivirals and the elucidation of viral infection mechanisms.

Abstract
Diclofenac (DCF) is a widely-used nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug that is routinely found in surface water bodies. While ozonation and ultraviolet (UV) radiation are commonly employed as disinfection methods in water treatment processes, the degradation of DCF in these processes occurs due to the strong oxidizing activity of the reactive oxygen species produced during both ozonation and UV radiation. Despite extensive studies reporting the removal and transformation of DCF through ozone and UV treatments, the potential hidden hazards of toxicity arising from these processes as well as the identification of the toxic transformation products have often been overlooked. In this study, various toxicities including microtoxicity, genotoxicity and antiestrogenicity were evaluated using multiple in-vitro bioassays. The transformation products were identified via ultra-performance liquid chromatography equipped with mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS). Correlation analysis was employed to gain deeper insight into the contributions of degradation products to overall toxicity. The results revealed that DCF possessed significant genotoxic and antiestrogenic effects, but displayed minimal microtoxicity. Microtoxic products such as those containing carbazole were generated during DCF degradation with ozone, UVA and UVC. Antiestrogenic products with dichloroaniline structures were observed in DCF ozonation but not in photodegradation by UVA and UVC. These findings highlighted the hidden risks associated with the disinfection of water containing micropollutants such as DCF.

Abstract
Intercropping legume with grass has potential to increase biomass and protein yield via biological N2-fixation (BNF) benefits, whereas the joint effects of biochar (BC) coupled with deficit irrigation on intercropping systems remain elusive. A 15N isotope-labelled experiment was implemented to investigate morpho-physiological responses of faba bean-ryegrass intercrops on low- (550 °C, LTBC) or high-temperature BC (800 °C, HTBC) amended sandy-loam soil under full (FI), deficit (DI) and partial root-zone drying irrigation (PRD). LTBC and HTBC significantly reduced intrinsic water-use efficiency (WUE) by 12 and 14 %, and instantaneous WUE by 8 and 16 %, respectively, in faba bean leaves, despite improved photosynthetic (An) and transpiration rate (Tr), and stomatal conductance (gs). Compared to FI, DI and PRD lowered faba bean An, gs and Tr, but enhanced leaf-scale and time-integrated WUE as proxied by the diminished shoots Δ13C. PRD enhanced WUE as lower gs, Tr and guard cell length than DI-plants. Despite higher carbon ([C]) and N concentration ([N]) in faba bean shoots amended by BC, the aboveground C- and N-pool of faba bean were reduced, while these pools increased for ryegrass. The N-use efficiency (NUE) in faba bean shoots was reduced by 9 and 14 % for LTBC and HTBC, respectively, but not for ryegrass. Interestingly, ryegrass shoots had 52 % higher NUE than faba bean shoots. The N derived from atmosphere (% Ndfa) was increased by 2 and 9 % under LTBC and HTBC, respectively, while it decreased slightly by reduced irrigation. Quantity of BNF in faba bean aboveground biomass decreased with HTBC coupled with reduced irrigation, mainly towards decreased biomass and soil N uptake by faba bean. Therefore, HTBC might not be a feasible option to improve WUE and BNF in faba bean-ryegrass intercropping, but PRD is permissible as the clear trade-off between BC and PRD.

Abstract
Background Monocytes play an essential role in developing autoimmune diseases; however, their association with myasthenia gravis (MG) development is unclear. Methods We performed a two-sample Mendelian randomization analysis to assess the causal relationship between monocyte-associated traits and MG, reviewing summary statistics of genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Results Using the inverse variance weighted method, the following were found to be causally associated with MG: HLA-DR on monocytes (OR, 1.363; 95% CI, 1.158-1.605; P = 2E-04), HLA-DR on CD14+ monocytes (OR, 1.324; 95% CI, 1.183-1.482; P = 1.08E-06), HLA-DR on CD14+CD16- monocytes (OR, 1.313; 95% CI, 1.177-1.465; P = 1.07E-06), CD40 on monocytes (OR, 1.135; 95% CI, 1.012-1.272; P < 0.05), CD40 on CD14+CD16- monocytes (OR, 1.142; 95% CI, 1.015-1.285; P < 0.05), CD40 on CD14+CD16+ monocytes (OR, 1.142; 95% CI, 1.021-1.278; P < 0.05), CD64 on CD14+CD16+ monocytes (OR, 1.286; 95% CI, 1.019-1.623; P < 0.05). Conclusions The present study suggests a causal relationship between the upregulation of CD40, HLA-DR, and CD64 on monocytes and the development of MG. Altered monocyte function may potentially be a risk factor for MG and a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Saltwater intrusion in estuarine ecosystems alters microbial communities as well as biogeochemical cycling processes and has become a worldwide problem. However, the impact of salinity intrusion on the dynamics of nitrous oxide (N2O) and associated microbial community are understudied. Here, we conducted field microcosms in a tidal estuary during different months (December, April and August) using dialysis bags, and microbes inside the bags encountered a change in salinity in natural setting. We then compared N2O dynamics in the microcosms with that in natural water. Regardless of incubation environment, saltwater intrusion altered the dissolved N2O depending on the initial saturation rates of N2O. While the impact of saltwater intrusion on N2O dynamics was consistent across months, the dissolved N2O was higher in summer than in winter. The N-related microbial communities following saltwater intrusion were dominated by denitrifers, with fewer nitrifiers and bacterial taxa involved in dissimilatory nitrate reduction to ammonium. While denitrification was a significant driver of N2O dynamics in the studied estuary, nitrifier-involved denitrification contributed to the additional production of N2O, evidenced by the strong associations with amoA genes and the abundance of Nitrospira. Higher N2O concentrations in the field microcosms than in natural water limited N2O consumption in the former, given the lack of an association with nosZ gene abundance. The differences in the N2O dynamics observed between the microcosms and natural water could be that the latter comprised not only indigenous microbes but also those accompanied with saltwater intrusion, and that immigrants might be functionally rich individuals and able to perform N transformation in multiple pathways. Our work provides the first quantitative assessment of in situ N2O concentrations in an estuary subjected to a saltwater intrusion. The results highlight the importance of ecosystem size and microbial connectivity in the source-sink dynamics of N2O in changing environments.

Abstract
The treatment of polluted water contaminated by nitrate, antibiotics, and heavy metals is a difficult problem in the current water treatment process. In this study, MnFe2O4 modified illite was mixed with sodium alginate (SA) to prepare a biological carrier illite@MnFe2O4@SA (IMFSA), which was used to immobilize strain Zoogloea sp. MFQ7 and construct a bioreactor. The bioreactor can use sodium acetate as a carbon source as well as ferrous and manganese ions as additional electron donors to achieve efficient nitrate removal. The denitrification capability of bioreactor was considerably enhanced by the addition of illite@MnFe2O4 (IMF) in comparison to SA biological carrier. The bioreactor was able to achieve a nitrate removal efficiency of 97.2% when hydraulic retention time is 5.0 h, C/N ratio is 2.0, and the concentration of Fe2+ and Mn2+ were 5.0 mg L-1. Furthermore, the bioreactor can achieve efficient removal of oxytetracycline (91.8%) and copper (85.6%) through the adsorption by IMF and biological iron-manganese precipitates. High-throughput sequencing results indicated that Zoogloea was successfully immobilized into the biocarrier. According to the KEGG database, it is suggested that the addition of modified IMF enhances denitrification and stimulates the expression of genes associated with the iron-manganese redox cycle.

Abstract
Coupling of spin and charge currents to structural chirality in non-magnetic materials, known as chirality-induced spin selectivity, is promising for application in spintronic devices at room temperature. Although the chirality-induced spin selectivity effect has been identified in various chiral materials, its Onsager reciprocal process, the inverse chirality-induced spin selectivity effect, remains unexplored. Here we report the observation of the inverse chirality-induced spin selectivity effect in chiral assemblies of π-conjugated polymers. Using spin-pumping techniques, the inverse chirality-induced spin selectivity effect enables quantification of the magnitude of the longitudinal spin-to-charge conversion driven by chirality-induced spin selectivity in different chiral polymers. By widely tuning conductivities and supramolecular chiral structures via a printing method, we found a very long spin relaxation time of up to several nanoseconds parallel to the chiral axis. Our demonstration of the inverse chirality-induced spin selectivity effect suggests possibilities for elucidating the puzzling interplay between spin and chirality, and opens a route for spintronic applications using printable chiral assemblies.

Abstract
Glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) reside in hypoxic periarteriolar niches of glioblastoma micro-environment, however, the crosstalk of GSCs with macrophages on regulating tumor angiogenesis and progression are not fully elucidated. GSCs-derived exosomes (GSCs-exos) are essential mediators during tumor immune-microenvironment remodeling initiated by GSCs, resulting in M2 polarization of tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) as we reported previously. Our data disclosed aberrant upregulation of miR-374b-3p in both clinical glioblastoma specimens and human cell lines of GSCs. MiR-374b-3p level was high in GSCs-exos and can be internalized by macrophages. Mechanistically, GSCs exosomal miR-374b-3p induced M2 polarization of macrophages by downregulating phosphatase and tensin expression, thereby promoting migration and tube formation of vascular endothelial cells after coculture with M2 macrophages. Cumulatively, these data indicated that GSCs exosomal miR-374b-3p can enhance tumor angiogenesis by inducing M2 polarization of macrophages, as well as promote malignant progression of glioblastoma. Targeting exosomal miR-374b-3p may serve as a potential target against glioblastoma.

Abstract
Understanding the dynamics of tree recovery after drought is critical for predicting the state of tree growth in the context of future climate change. While there has been a great deal of researches showing that drought events can cause numerous significant negative effects on tree growth, the positive effects of post-drought wetting events on tree growth remain unclear. Therefore, we analyzed the effect of wet and dry events on the radial growth of trees in Central Asia using data on the width of tree rings. The results showed that 1) Drought is the main limiting factor for radial growth of trees in Central Asia, and that as the intensity and sensitivity of drought increases, tree resistance decreases and recovery rises, and more frequent droughts reduce tree resistance. 2) Tree radial growth varied significantly with wet and dry conditions, with wet events before and after drought events significantly enhancing tree radial growth. 3) When drought is followed by a wetting event, the relationship between tree resistance and recovery is closer to the "line of full resilience", with a significant increase in recovery, and compensatory growth is more likely to occur. Thus, wetting events have a significant positive effect on tree radial growth and are a key factor in rapid tree growth recovery after drought.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The construction of the ordered health delivery system in China aims to enhance equity and optimize the efficient use of medical resources by rationally allocating patients to different levels of medical institutions based on the severity of their condition. However, superior hospitals have been overcrowded, and primary healthcare facilities have been underutilized in recent years. China has developed a new case-based payment method called "Diagnostic Intervention Package" (DIP). The government is trying to use this economic lever to encourage medical institutions to actively assume treatment tasks consistent with their functional positioning and service capabilities. METHODS This study takes Tai'an, a DIP pilot city, as a case study and uses an interrupted time series analysis to analyze the impact of DIP reform on the case severity and service scope of medical institutions at different levels. RESULTS The results show that after the DIP reform, the proportion of patients receiving complicated procedures (tertiary hospitals: β3 = 0.197, P < 0.001; secondary hospitals: β3 = 0.132, P = 0.020) and the case mix index (tertiary hospitals: β3 = 0.022, P < 0.001; secondary hospitals: β3 = 0.008, P < 0.001) in tertiary and secondary hospitals increased, and the proportion of primary-DIP-groups cases decreased (tertiary hospitals: β3 = -0.290, P < 0.001; secondary hospitals: β3 = -1.200, P < 0.001), aligning with the anticipated policy objectives. However, the proportion of patients receiving complicated procedures (β3 = 0.186, P = 0.002) and the case mix index (β3 = 0.002, P < 0.001) in primary healthcare facilities increased after the reform, while the proportion of primary-DIP-groups cases (β3 = -0.515, P = 0.005) and primary-DIP-groups coverage (β3 = -2.011, P < 0.001) decreased, which will reduce the utilization efficiency of medical resources and increase inequity. CONCLUSION The DIP reform did not effectively promote the construction of the ordered health delivery system. Policymakers need to adjust economic incentives and implement restraint mechanisms to regulate the behavior of medical institutions.

Abstract
Palaeogeological events and climate oscillations profoundly impact the demographics and distributions of small-range species, increasing the extinction risk. The largest water strider worldwide, Gigantometra gigas (Hemiptera: Gerridae), exhibits restricted distributions in Vietnam and southern China. Herein, we generated three genomic datasets (mitogenomes, 146 nuclear protein-coding genes and single nucleotide polymorphisms) with ecological niche modelling (ENM) to explicitly test whether the present-day distribution of G. gigas actually resulted from geographical and climatic effects. We found that the origin of this largest water strider reached the divergence time of the genus within Gerridae, providing a greater opportunity to explore its response to geographic movements. The right-lateral motion of the Red River Fault facilitated the divergence of two phylogeographic lineages, resulting in the "north-south component" genetic pattern in G. gigas. The Hainan and southeast Vietnam populations of the southern linage were completely separated by the Beibu Gulf but exhibited similar genetic compositions, confirming that Hainan had a continental origin and that Hainan Island joined with the Indo-China Peninsula to promote gene exchange among populations. Additionally, we noticed the low genetic diversity but long demographic history of the northern lineage, which displayed population dynamics opposite to those of other organisms. Integrating the demographic changes and ENM findings revealed that suitable habitat contraction and rapid demographic decline during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) triggered the low genetic diversity of the northern lineage. Overall, the demographic history of the largest water strider was mainly shaped by geographical features, and first provided evidence from the phylogeographic perspective of aquatic insects to support the hypothesis of Hainan Island shifting.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early diagnosis of atrial fibrillation (AF) is important for preventing stroke and other complications. Predicting AF risk in advance can improve early diagnostic efficiency. Deep learning has been used for disease risk prediction; however, it lacks adherence to evidence-based medicine standards. Identifying the underlying mechanisms behind disease risk prediction is important and required. METHODS We developed an explainable deep learning model called HBBI-AI to predict AF risk using only heart beat-to-beat intervals (HBBIs) during sinus rhythm. We proposed a possible AF mechanism based on the model's explainability and verified this conjecture using confirmed AF risk factors while also examining new AF risk factors. Finally, we investigated the changes in clinicians' ability to predict AF risk using only HBBIs before and after learning the model's explainability. FINDINGS HBBI-AI consistently performed well across large in-house and external public datasets. HBBIs with large changes or extreme stability were critical predictors for increased AF risk, and the underlying cause was autonomic imbalance. We verified various AF risk factors and discovered that autonomic imbalance was associated with all these factors. Finally, cardiologists effectively understood and learned from these findings to improve their abilities in AF risk prediction. CONCLUSIONS HBBI-AI effectively predicted AF risk using only HBBI information through evaluating autonomic imbalance. Autonomic imbalance may play an important role in many risk factors of AF rather than in a limited number of risk factors.

Abstract
The Bangiales represent an ancient lineage within red algae that are characterized by a life history featuring a special transitional stage from diploid to haploid known as the conchosporangia stage. However, the regulatory mechanisms governing the initiation of this stage by changes in environmental conditions are not well understood. This study analyzed the changes in phytohormones and H2O2 content during the development of conchosporangia. It also compared the gene expression changes in the early development of conchosporangia through transcriptome analysis. The findings revealed that H2O2 was shown to be the key signal initiating the transition from conchocelis to conchosporangia in Pyropia haitanensis. Phytohormone analysis showed a significant increase in 1-aminocylopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) levels during conchosporangia maturation, while changes in environmental conditions were found to promote the rapid release of H2O2. H2O2 induction led to conchosporangia development, and ACC enhanced both H2O2 production and conchosporangia development. This promotive effect was inhibited by the NADPH oxidase inhibitor diphenylene iodonium and the H2O2 scavenger N, N'-dimethylthiourea. The balance of oxidative-antioxidative mechanisms was maintained by regulating the activities and transcriptional levels of enzymes involved in H2O2 production and scavenging. Transcriptome analysis in conjunction with evaluation of enzyme and transcription level changes revealed upregulation of protein and sugar synthesis along with modulation of energy supply under the conditions that induced maturation, and exogenous ACC was found to enhance the entire process. Overall, this study demonstrates that ACC enhances H2O2 promotion of the life cycle switch responsible for the transition from a vegetative conchocelis to a meiosis-preceding conchosporangia stage in Bangiales species.

Abstract
Metal-free carbon material-mediated nonradical oxidation processes (C-NOPs) have emerged as a research hotspot due to their excellent performance in selectively eliminating organic pollutants in aqueous environments. However, the selective oxidation mechanisms of C-NOPs remain obscure due to the diversity of organic pollutants and nonradical active species. Herein, quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) models were employed to unveil the origins of C-NOP selectivity toward organic pollutants in different oxidant systems. QSAR analysis based on adsorption and oxidation descriptors revealed that C-NOP selectivity depends on the oxidation potentials of organic pollutants rather than on adsorption interactions. However, the dominance of electronic effects in selective oxidation decreases with increasing structural complexity of organic pollutants. Moreover, the oxidation threshold solely depends on the inherent electronic nature of organic pollutants and not on the reactivity of nonradical active species. Notably, the accuracy of substituent descriptors (Hammett constants) and theoretical descriptors (e.g., highest occupied molecular orbital energy, ionization potential, and single-electron oxidation potential) is significantly influenced by the complexity and molecular state of organic pollutants. Overall, the study findings reveal the origins of organic pollutant-oriented selective oxidation and provide insight into the application of descriptors in QSAR analysis.

Effects of typhoon events on coastal hydrology, nutrients, and algal bloom dynamics: Insights from continuous observation and machine learning in semi-enclosed Zhanjiang Bay, China.

Abstract
Typhoons can induce variations in hydrodynamic conditions and biogeochemical processes, potentially escalating the risk of algal bloom occurrences impacting coastal ecosystems. However, the impacts of typhoons on instantaneous changes and the mechanisms behind typhoon-induced algal blooms remain poorly understood. This study utilized high-frequency in situ observation and machine learning model to track the dynamic variations in meteorological, hydrological, physicochemical, and Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) levels through the complete Typhoon Talim landing in Zhanjiang Bay (ZJB) in July 2023. The results showed that a delayed onset of algal bloom occurring 10 days after typhoon's arrival. Subsequently, as temperatures reached a suitable range, with an ample supply of nutrients and water stability, Chl-a peaked at 121.49 μg L-1 in algal bloom period. Additionally, water temperature and air temperature decreased by 1.61 °C and 2.8 °C during the typhoon, respectively. In addition, wind speed and flow speed increased by 1.34 and 0.015 m s-1 h-1 to peak values, respectively. Moreover, the slow decline of 8.2 % in salinity suggested a substantial freshwater input, leading to an increase in nutrients. For instance, the mean DIN and DIP were 2.2 and 8.5 times higher than those of the pre-typhoon period, resulting in a decrease in DIN/DIP (closer to16) and the alleviation of P limitation. Furthermore, pH and dissolved oxygen (DO) were both low during the typhoon period and then peaked at 8.93 and 19.05 mg L-1 during the algal bloom period, respectively, but subsequently decreased, remaining lower than those of the pre-typhoon period. A preliminary learning machine model was established to predict Chl-a and exhibited good accuracy, with R2 of 0.73. This study revealed the mechanisms of eutrophication status formation and algal blooms occurrence in the coastal waters, providing insights into the effects of typhoon events on tropical coastal biogeochemistry and ecology.

Abstract
Penetrating keratoplasty remains the most common treatment to restore vision for corneal diseases. Immune rejection after corneal transplantation is one of the major causes of graft failure. In recent years, Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK) inhibitors have been found to be associated with the activation of the STATs pathway and are widely studied in autoimmune diseases. Therefore, it may be possible that the ROCK inhibitors also participate in the local and systemic immune regulation in corneal transplantation through activation of the STATs pathway and affect the CD4+ T cell differentiation. This study aimed to explore the role of ROCK-STATs pathway in the occurrence of immune rejection in corneal transplantation by applying Y27632, a ROCK inhibitor, to the recipient mice and peripheral CD4+ T cells. We found that Y27632 significantly up-regulated the phosphorylation level of STAT5 in both spleen and lymph nodes, down-regulated the phosphorylation level of STAT3 in the CD4+ T cells in the spleen. It also increased the proportion of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Helios+ Tregs while decreased CD4+IL17A+ -Th17 cells. Moreover, Y27632 also reduced the proportion of dendritic cells in both spleen and lymph nodes, as well as the expression level of CD86 on their surfaces in the spleen, while the proportion of macrophages was not affected. The expression levels of ROCK1, ROCK2, CD11c and IL-17A mRNA were also found to be low in the graft tissue while the expression of Helios was upregulated. Rho-kinase inhibitor can modulate the balance of Tregs/Th17 by regulating the phosphorylation levels of both STAT3 and STAT5, thereby inhibiting the occurrence of immune rejection in allogeneic corneal transplantation.

Abstract
2D materials, with advantages of atomic thickness and novel physical/chemical characteristics, have emerged as the vital building blocks for advanced lamellar membranes which possess promising potential in energy storage, ion separation, and catalysis. When 2D materials are stacked together, the van der Waals (vdW) force generated between adjacent layered nanosheets induces the construction of an ordered lamellar membrane. By regulating the interlayer spacing down to the nanometer or even sub-nanometer scale, rapid and selective ion transport can be achieved through such vdW gaps. The further improvement and application of qualified 2D materials-based lamellar membranes (2DLMs) can be fulfilled by the rational design of nanochannels and the intelligent micro-environment regulation under different stimuli. Focusing on the newly emerging advances of 2DLMs, in this review, the common top-down and bottom-up synthesis approaches of 2D nanosheets and the design strategy of functional 2DLMs are briefly introduced. Two essential ion transport mechanisms within vdW gaps are also involved. Subsequently, the responsive 2DLMs based on different types of external stimuli and their unique applications in nanofluid transport, membrane-based filters, and energy storage are presented. Based on the above analysis, the existing challenges and future developing prospects of 2DLMs are further proposed.

Abstract
Using (10087±44)×10^{6} J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector, numerous Ξ^{-} and Λ decay asymmetry parameters are simultaneously determined from the process J/ψ→Ξ^{-}Ξ[over ¯]^{+}→Λ(pπ^{-})π^{-}Λ[over ¯](n[over ¯]π^{0})π^{+} and its charge-conjugate channel. The precisions of α_{Λ0} for Λ→nπ^{0} and α[over ¯]_{Λ0} for Λ[over ¯]→n[over ¯]π^{0} compared to world averages are improved by factors of 4 and 1.7, respectively. The ratio of decay asymmetry parameters of Λ→nπ^{0} to that of Λ→pπ^{-}, ⟨α_{Λ0}⟩/⟨α_{Λ-}⟩, is determined to be 0.873±0.012_{-0.010}^{+0.011}, where the first and the second uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. The ratio is smaller than unity more than 5σ, which signifies the existence of the ΔI=3/2 transition in Λ for the first time. Besides, we test for CP symmetry in Ξ^{-}→Λπ^{-} and in Λ→nπ^{0} with the best precision to date.
