摘要:Disentangling inputs of aeolian dust, ice- rafted debris (IRD), and eroded continental detritus delivered by ocean currents to marine sediments provide important insights into Earth System processes and climate. This study uses Sr-Nd-Pb isotope ratios of the continent- derived (lithogenic) fraction in deep- sea core TN057-6 from the subantarctic Southern Ocean southwest of Africa over the past 150,000 y to identify source regions and quantify their relative contributions and fluxes utilizing a...

摘要:Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of autism spectrum disorder engendered by transcriptional silencing of the fragile X messenger ribonucleoprotein 1 ( FMR1 ) gene. Given the early onset of behavioral and molecular changes, it is imperative to know the optimal timing for therapeutic intervention. Case reports documented benefits of metformin treatment in FXS children between 2 and 14 y old. In this study, we administered metformin from birth to Fmr1-/y mice which correct...

摘要:Invertebrates mainly rely on sequence- specific RNA interference (RNAi) to resist viral infections. Increasing studies show that double- stranded RNA (dsRNA) can induce sequence- independent protection and that Dicer- 2, the key RNAi player that cleaves long dsRNA into small interfering RNA (siRNA), is necessary for this protection. However, how this protection occurs remains unknown. Herein, we report that it is caused by adenosine triphosphate (ATP)- hydrolysis accompanying the dsRNA- cleava...

摘要:Androgen receptor (AR) is a main driver for castration- resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). c-Myc is an oncogene underlying prostate tumorigenesis. Here, we find that the deubiquitinase USP11 targets both AR and c-Myc in prostate cancer (PCa). USP11 expression was up- regulated in metastatic PCa and CRPC. USP11 knockdown (KD) significantly inhibited PCa cell growth. Our RNA-seq studies revealed AR and c-Myc as the top transcription factors altered after USP11 KD. ChIP-seq analysis showed that ei...

摘要:Influenza viruses pose a significant burden on global human health. Influenza has a broad cellular tropism in the airway, but how infection of different epithelial cell types impacts replication kinetics and burden in the airways is not fully understood. Using primary human airway cultures, which recapitulate the diverse epithelial cell landscape of the human airways, we investigated the impact of cell type composition on virus tropism and replication kinetics. Cultures were highly diverse acr...

摘要:The seemingly straightforward task of tying one's shoes requires a sophisticated interplay of joints, muscles, and neural pathways, posing a formidable challenge for researchers studying the intricacies of coordination. A widely accepted framework for measuring coordinated behavior is the Haken-Kelso-Bunz (HKB) model. However, a significant limitation of this model is its lack of accounting for the diverse variability structures inherent in the coordinated systems it frequently models. Variabi...

摘要:Modulation of neuronal firing rates by the spatial locations of physical objects is a widespread phenomenon in the brain. However, little is known about how neuronal responses to the actions of biological entities are spatially tuned and whether such spatially tuned responses are affected by social contexts. These issues are of key importance for understanding the neural basis of embodied social cognition, such as imitation and perspective- taking. Here, we show that spatial representation of ...

摘要:We developed a generally applicable method, CRISPR/Cas9- targeted long- read sequencing (CTLR-Seq), to resolve, haplotype- specifically, the large and complex regions in the human genome that had been previously impenetrable to sequencing analysis, such as large segmental duplications (SegDups) and their associated genome rearrangements. CTLR-Seq combines in vitro Cas9- mediated cutting of the genome and pulse- field gel electrophoresis to isolate intact large (i.e., up to 2,000 kb) genomic re...

摘要:This work establishes a different paradigm on digital molecular spaces and their efficient navigation by exploiting sigma profiles. To do so, the remarkable capability of Gaussian processes (GPs), a type of stochastic machine learning model, to correlate and predict physicochemical properties from sigma profiles is demonstrated, outperforming state- of- the- art neural networks previously published. The amount of chemical information encoded in sigma profiles eases the learning burden of machi...

摘要:The g tensor, which determines the reaction of Kramers-degenerate states to an applied magnetic field, is of increasing importance in the current design of spin qubits. It is affected by details of heterostructure composition, disorder, and electric fields, but it inherits much of its structure from the effect of the spin-orbit interaction working at the crystal-lattice level. Here, we uncover interesting symmetry and topological features of g = gL + gS for important valence and conduction ban...
