Although individual carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are superior as constituents to polymer chains, the mechanical and thermal properties of CNT fibers (CNTFs) remain inferior to synthetic fibers due to the failure of embedding CNTs effectively in superstructures. Conventional techniques resulted in a mild improvement of target properties while degrading others. Here, a Double-Drawing technique is developed to rearrange the constituent CNTs in both mesoscale and nanoscale morphology. Consequently, the mechanical and thermal properties of the resulting...

Determining the abundance of N isotope (δ15N) in natural environments is a simple but powerful method for providing integrated information on the N cycling dynamics and status in an ecosystem under exogenous N inputs. However, whether the input of different N compounds could differently impact plant growth and their 15N signatures remains unclear. Here, the response of δ15N signatures and growth of three dominant plants (Leymus chinensis, Carex duriuscula, and Thermopsis lanceolata) to the addition...

In forensic medical examinations, estimating the postmortem interval (PMI) is an important factor. Methamphetamine (MA) is a synthetic stimulant that is commonly abused, and estimation of the PMI after MA abuse has become one of the main tasks in forensic investigation. Microorganisms play a vital role in carrion decomposition. Analysing the bacterial succession patterns can be used as a forensic tool to estimate the PMI. The present study aimed to analyse bacterial succession changes during...

Streptococcus suis can cause severe infections in pigs and humans. The tonsils of pigs are major niches for S. suis, and different serotypes of S. suis can be found in the same tonsil. Pig tonsil colonization by S. suis is believed to be an important source of infection for humans and pigs. However, how S. suis competes for a stable tonsil niche is unknown. Here, we found that S. suis strain WUSS351, isolated from a...

Nucleomodulins are secreted bacterial proteins whose molecular targets are located in host cell nuclei. They are gaining attention as critical virulence factors that either modify the epigenetics of host cells or directly regulate host gene expression. Mycoplasma bovis is a major veterinary pathogen that secretes several potential virulence factors. The aim of this study was to determine whether any of their secreted proteins might function as nucleomodulins. After an initial in silico screening, the nuclear...

Human placenta is key to fetal growth and development as it controls maternal-to-fetal exchanges of endogenous and exogenous substances. Despite numerous studies have investigated prenatal exposure to environmental chemicals and associated effects on adverse pregnancy outcomes (APOs), the role of placenta as a direct target of environmental chemicals and possible driver of pre- and postnatal effects has been largely overlooked. In the present work, we demonstrated that more than 330 environmental chemicals have been reported...

With China already committed to peak carbon dioxide emissions before 2030 and aiming at achieving carbon neutrality before 2060, coal separation has recently become a hot research topic, in particular, gas–solid fluidized separation technology has attracted significant research attention. Coal particles with size of +10 mm can be separated efficiently via currently used technologies; nonetheless, specific scientific problems of fine coal separation still need to be systematically explored. In this study, combined with the properties...

Data underlying the article: "Ultrahigh Dynamic Range and Low Noise Figure Programmable Integrated Microwave Photonic Filter". The data set consists of several different measurement results for the modulation transformer, double injection ring resonator, and microwave photonic filter responses as published in the resource article. All data is stored in files using the CSV-format. The set is structered to give the data per figure (subfigure), where each subfigure has a folder containing a README-file describing the...

Ambient PM2.5 is one of the environmental risk factors and was correlated with senescence-related diseases based on the epidemiologic investigation. However, little is known about senescence induced by PM2.5 as well as the underlying mechanisms. In this study, we demonstrated that PM2.5 exposure aggravated cellular senescence in vivo and in vitro, and disrupted micronuclei (MN) played a vital role in this process. Our results suggested that the nuclear envelope (NE) of PM2.5-induced MN was ruptured....

Diabetes mellitus, metabolic disease, is characterized by chronic hyperglycemia. Patients with diabetes mellitus are susceptible to infection and therefore have a higher prevalence and progression rate of periodontal disease. We aimed to study the effect of insulin and kruppel like factor 10 (KLF10) on osteoblasts proliferation and differentiation, and expression of bone metabolism-related molecules and related signaling pathway molecules of AKT serine/threonine kinase 1 (AKT) and nuclear factor kappa B subunit 1 (NF-κB) through in...

Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC), one of the most common subtypes of lung cancer, is a leading cause of cancer-caused deaths in the world. It has been well demonstrated that a deep understanding of the tumor environment in cancer would be helpful to predict the prognosis of patients. This study aimed to evaluate the tumor environment in LUSC, and to construct an efficient prognosis model involved in specific subtypes. Four expression files were downloaded from...

Bats are reservoir hosts for various zoonotic viruses with pandemdic potential in humans and livestock. In vitro systems for studying bat host–pathogen interactions are of significant interest. Here, we establish protocols to generate bat airway organoids (AOs) and airway epithelial cells differentiated at the air–liquid interface (ALI-AECs) from tracheal tissues of the cave-nectar bat Eonycteris spelaea. In particular, we describe steps which enable laboratories that do not have access to live bats to perform extended...

Gallbladder cancer (GBC) is the common malignancy of the bile tract system with extremely poor clinical outcomes, owing to its metastatic property and intrinsic resistance to the first-line drugs. Although it is well-established that cholesterol abnormity contributes to gallstone formation, a leading risk factor for GBC, the link of cholesterol homeostasis with GBC has not been investigated. The present study systematically examined the genes implicated in cholesterol homeostasis, and revealed altered gene expressions of de...
