摘要:In a world where teams serve as the backbone of collaboration and innovation, women must feel safe when contributing to teamwork. Unfortunately, an increasing number of women report experiencing sexual harassment in workplaces and other collective settings. This research included an examination of how exposure to sexist insults affects collaborative efforts. We argue that in addition to its well- documented effects on individuals, sexism within teams undermines team performance. Hence, emotion...

摘要:In the common cellular space, hundreds of binding reactions occur reliably and enable this remarkable compatibility have not yet been adequately elucidated. In order to delineate these principles, we consider the intracellular sensing of transition metals in bacteria-an integral part of cellular metal homeostasis. Protein cytosolic sensors typically interact with metals through three types of lateral chain residues, containing oxygen, nitrogen, or sulfur. The very existence of complete sets of...

摘要:Constructing single-cell atlases requires preserving differences attributable to biological variables, such as cell types, tissue origins, and disease states, while eliminating batch effects. However, existing methods are inadequate in explicitly modeling these biological variables. Here, we introduce SIGNAL, a general framework that leverages biological variables to disentangle biological and technical effects, thereby linking these metadata to data integration. SIGNAL employs a variant of pr...

摘要:Contrary to all terrestrial rocks, planets and meteorites exhibit oxygen isotope variations decorrelated with the mass difference of their atomic nuclei. It has been proposed that, in the protosolar nebula (PSN), these variations could result from mass independent isotopic fractionation (MIF) either during specific chemical reactions similar to those responsible for the formation of ozone in the Earth's atmosphere or during ultraviolet (UV)- photolysis of carbon monoxide (CO) gas in the PSN. H...

摘要:Spermatogenesis is a key developmental process underlying the origination of newly evolved genes. However, rapid cell type-specific transcriptomic divergence of the Drosophila germline has posed a significant technical barrier for comparative single- cell RNA- sequencing studies. By quantifying a surprisingly strong correlation between species- and cell type-specific divergence in three closely related Drosophila species, we apply a statistical procedure to identify a core set of 198 genes tha...

摘要:The direct reprogramming of cells has tremendous potential in in vitro neurological studies. Previous attempts to convert blood cells into induced neurons have presented several challenges, necessitating a less invasive, efficient, rapid, and convenient approach. The current study introduces an optimized method for converting somatic cells into neurons using a nonsurgical approach that employs peripheral blood cells as an alternative source to fibroblasts. We have demonstrated the efficacy of ...

摘要:Air pollution is a global health crisis that disproportionately affects lower- and middle-income countries. We examine global air quality monitoring data, highlighting persistent inequalities in high-exposure regions, and assess the potential of emerging technologies to improve data utility for mitigation. Improving air quality, however, does not need to wait for more data, nor will monitoring alone drive action. Immediate mitigation measures with broad cobenefits are needed now to reduce poll...

摘要:Aneuploidy is observed as gains or losses of whole chromosomes or chromosome arms and is a common hallmark of cancer. Whereas models for the generation of aneuploidy in cancer invoke mitotic chromosome segregation errors, whole-arm losses might occur simply as a result of centromere breakage. We recently showed that elevated RNA Polymerase II level over the S-phase-dependent histone genes predicts rapid recurrence of human meningioma and is correlated with total whole-arm losses relative to ga...

摘要:Primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in one of at least 50 different genes that encode proteins involved in the biogenesis, structure, or function of motile cilia. Genetically inherited defects in motile cilia cause PCD, a debilitating respiratory disease for which there is no approved therapy. The dynein axonemal intermediate chain 1 (DNAI1) protein is a key structural element of the ciliary outer dynein arm (ODA) critical for normal ciliary ...

摘要:Increasing educational attainment is one of the most important and effective strategies for health and economic improvements. The extent to which extreme climate events disrupt education, resulting in reduced educational attainment, remains understudied. Children in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) may be uniquely vulnerable to losing schooling after disasters due to the poor physical condition of schools and the lack of resources to mitigate unexpected household shocks. Our analysis a...
