摘要:Acetyl- TAG (3- acetyl- 1,2- diacylglycerol), unique triacylglycerols (TAG) possessing an acetate group at the sn-3 position, exhibit valuable properties, such as reduced viscosity and freezing points. Previous attempts to engineer acetyl- TAG production in oilseed crops did not achieve the high levels found in naturally producing Euonymus seeds. Here, we demonstrate the successful generation of camelina and pennycress transgenic lines accumulating nearly pure acetyl- TAG at 93 mol% and 98 mol...

摘要:The glucocorticoid , mineralocorticoid receptors (GR and MR, respectively) have distinct, yet overlapping physiological and pathophysiological functions. There are indi- cations that both receptors interact functionally and physically, but the precise role of this interdependence is poorly understood. Here, we analyzed the impact of GR coex- pression on MR genome- wide- wide transcriptional responses and chromatin binding upon activation by aldosterone and glucocorticoids, both physiological l...

摘要:Mining of electronic health records (EHR) promises to automate the identification of comprehensive disease phenotypes. However, the realization of this promise is hindered by the unavailability of generalizable ground-truth information, data incompleteness and heterogeneity, and the lack of generalization to multiple cohorts. We present here a data-driven approach to identify clinical states that we implement for 585 critical care patients with suspected pneumonia recruited by the SCRIPT study...

摘要:Ethanol, a natural by- product of sugar fermentation, can be found in various fruits and nectar. Although many animals routinely consume ethanol in low concentrations as part of their natural diets, its inherent toxicity can cause severe damage. Even species particularly well adapted to ethanol consumption face detrimental effects when exposed to concentrations above 4%. Here, we investigated the metabolism of ethanol and its impact on survival and behavior in the Oriental hornet ( Vespa orien...

摘要:The dominance of beneficial mutations is a key evolutionary parameter affecting the rate and genetic basis of adaptation, yet it is notoriously difficult to estimate. A leading method to infer it is to compare the relative rates of adaptive substitution for X- linked and autosomal genes, which-according to a classic model by Charlesworth et al. (1987)-is a simple function of the dominance of new beneficial mutations. Recent evidence that rates of adaptive substitution are faster for X- linked ...

摘要:Epidemiological studies show a strong correlation between air pollution and fetal growth restriction (FGR), but existing results are controversial due to inherent limitations, such as causality of specific pollutants, developmental origin, and maternal-fetal transmission. To address this controversy, we first conducted a retrospective analysis of 28,796 newborns and revealed that maternal nitrogen dioxide (NO2) exposure during the second trimester was positively associated with FGR, with an ad...
