“The role of Candida auris extracellular vesicles on pathogenesis and treatment” Submitted by Walton Man To Chan for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the University of Hong Kong in August 2022 Candida auris is an emergent pathogenic fungus prominently known for its unusual transmissibility, environmental persistence, and multidrug resistance. It is the only fungi to be listed in the highest priority for the American Centers for Disease Control’s Antimicrobial Resistance Threats List. Until...

Obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are hallmarked by aberrant lipid accumulation, persistent chronic inflammation and hyperactive endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress. Warburg effect of aerobic glycolysis in hepatic M1 macrophages is a major cause for metabolic dysfunction and inflammatory stress NAFLD. Plant-derived triterpene celastrol markedly inhibited macrophage M1 polarization and adipocyte hypertrophy in obesity. The present study was designed to identify the celastrol-bound proteins which reprogrammed metabolic and inflammatory pathways in M1 macrophages. On...

We developed a gridded global proportional urban extent dataset (2015-2100, 5-year interval) at 1km spatial resolution under various future development pathways. Unlike the commonly used binary (0-non-urban, 1-urban) urban products, this dataset provides the fractional information (i.e., ISA from 0 to 1) within each 1km pixel. Here, each .zip file represents one of eight scenarios, containing 17 GEOTIFF files (2015-2100, 5-year interval), which can be opened by ArcMap or QGIS. Questions about this dataset can...

These datasets contain the raw and/or compiled data that were analyzed in the thesis "The survival strategies of the high shore limpet Lottia dorsuosa to withstand summer in Hong Kong: The interplay of physiology and behaviour". Using these data, the population dynamics, allometry, thermal performance, physiological energetics, diet composition and local species distribution of Lottia dorsuosa were analyzed.

Additional file 10. Differential expression analysis details. For conciseness, the labels of pairwise comparisons were coded in two letters: the first one represents the phenotype (M: mothers, F: fathers, P: paternal males, A: attackers), whereas the second one represents the structure (M: MPOA, N: NAc, L: LS). For instance, PLvAL refers to the comparison between the Paternal and Attackers phenotypes in the LS. DE: differentially expressed.

Additional file 14. Functional enrichment of genes differentially expressed in the medial preoptic area (MPOA), the nucleus accumbens (NAc), or the lateral septum (LS). For each pairwise comparison, the functional enrichments in gene ontologies of the biological processes (BP), cellular components (CC), and molecular functions (MF) categories as well as in pathways from the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) were tested for the differentially expressed genes up- or down-regulated (UP, and DOWN, respectively)....

Introduction HKU956 is a multimodal dataset for analyzing listeners’ emotions and physiological responses induced by music. Five kinds of peripheral physiological signals (i.e., heart rate, electrodermal activity, blood volume pulse, inter-beat interval, and skin temperature) of 30 participants (18 females) were recorded as they listened to music within a period of 40 minutes. Each participant listened to 10 or more songs, and their physiological signals were aligned with the 956 listening records. Participants reported their...

Components identification of Huoxiang Suling Shuanghua Decoction (HSSD) by using UPLC/Q-TOF MS analysis Components identification of HSSD were performed by UPLC/Q-TOF MS analysis including two parts of detection. We firstly identified the ingredients of HSSD using HSSD solution, then the analysis of serum sample after HSSD taken orally in rat was performed subsequently to identified the ingredients of HSSD absorbing into blood. Raw data of UPLC/Q-TOF MS were shown here.

This dataset includes data collected for a PhD project, which adopts the design-based research (DBR) approach to formulate guidelines for carrying out CLIL pedagogical planning and implementation. The dataset consists of data collected from three case schools. The data include transcripts generated from interviews with teachers and students, class materials co-designed by the teachers and researcher and used during the implementation phase, and student artefacts in different forms such as posters, comic strips, food diaries,...

My research is the dialect of Yangshan Cantonese. On the basis of this research, two survey materials were designed. The first is "survey and interview", which mainly interviews some native language backgrounds of the speakers and their local languages. The second one is "vocabulary list", which is mainly to let the pronunciation person read the following words, while I record their pronunciation based on the reading of the pronunciation person. The results of the two...

After analysis, data can be...

The data for this study are drawn from the data collected for a larger project entitled “A Systematic Study of Labour Dynamics in the Greater Bay Area” funded by Our Hong Kong Foundation.
This specific data set looks at the labour migration of highly educated Mainland Chinese in Hong Kong with the data collected between fall of 2019 to spring of 2020 with 3,012 respondents. My research draws from this data set and examine...

This study aims to characterize the functional role of ΔNp63α in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. ΔNp63α is the predominant isoform of p63 in normal esophgeal and ESCC. Moreover, ΔNp63α is often overexpressed in ESCC patients, therefore, depletion of p63 was used to study the functional role of the specific p63 isoform, ΔNp63α, in ESCC, since other p63 isoforms are barely expressed in ESCC.
Effect of p63 depletion on tumor growth was examined by using...

Complete list of samples collected from wildlife and confiscated animals examined as part of research work led by Brian M. Worthington and conducted in Hong Kong. Samples collected as part of this One Health suveillance program were subjected to virological investigation paired with metatranscriptomic profiling for virus discovery and characterization. Phylogenomic methods were applied to alucidate host-virus relationships and to infer cross-species transmission events.
