The pearl oyster Pinctada fucata, the noble scallop Chlamys nobilis, and the green-lipped mussel Perna viridis are species of economic and ecological importance along the southern coast of China. We evaluated the effects of seawater acidification on clearance, respiration, and excretion rates in these three species. The animals were reared in seawater at pH 8.1 (control), 7.7, or 7.4. The clearance rate was highest at pH 7.7 for P. fucata and at pH 8.1 for C. nobilis and P. viridis. The pH had little effecton the respiration rate of P. fucata and P. viridis. In contrast, the respiration rate was significantly lower atpH 7.4 in C. nobilis. The excretion rate was significantly lower at pH 7.4 than pH 8.1 for all species. Theresults indicate that the reduction in seawater pH likely affected the metabolic process (food intake, oxygenconsumption, and ammonia excretion) of these bivalves. Different species respond differently to seawateracidification. Further studies are needed to demonstrate the exact mechanisms for this effect and evaluateadaptability of these bivalves to future acidified oceans.展开更多

Genomic analyses define the molecular architecture of GBM and highlight a central function for mechanistic target of rapamycin (roTOR) signaling, roTOR kinase exists in two multi- protein complexes, namely, mTORC 1 and mTORC2. These complexes differ in terms of function, regulation and rapamycin sensitivity, mTORC 1 is well established as a cancer drug target, whereas the functions of mTORC2 in cancer, including GBM, remains poorly understood. This study reviews the recent findings that demonstrate a central function ofmTORC2 in regulating tumor growth, metabolic reprogramming, and targeted therapy resistance in GBM, which makes mTORCZ as a critical GBM drug target.展开更多

The aqueous infusion was prepared adding 93.5 g of cracked soursop seeds in 1,875 mL of boiled water and let stand for 12 h. Crossbred ewes were randomly assigned to receive every 19 days: (1) 10 mL of cracked soursop infusion orally (n = 27), (2) 15 mL of cracked soursop infusion orally (n = 27), and (3) 2 mL of Febendazole subcutaneously (n = 26). Feces (2-5 g) were collected directly from the rectum of each animal on the following days: 0, 19, 38 and 57 days post treatment. Nematode egg population was determined using the technique of McMaster. Statistical analysis was done using ANOVA (analysis of variance). There was a reduction overtime (P = 0.05) in all treatments in parasite egg population. There were no differences (P = 0.10) in egg population across treatments. In conclusion, aqueous infusion of soursop cracked seeds proved to be an environmentally friendly and effective alternative in the control of gastrointestinal parasites in crossbred hair sheep in the region of northern Veracruz.展开更多

We refer to four parenting styles: authoritarian, authoritative, permissive and neglectful; the "parental authority" domain relates to parental authority exhibited toward children in all four styles. The study used a quantitative method, and 110 Jewish and Arab-Muslim mothers in Israel filled out self-report questionnaires on two generations. The findings are: intergenerational transmission of parenting style and parental authority exist; national-ethnic origin and level of religiosity do not influence intergenerational transmission of parenting style and parental authority.展开更多

The metabolic model applied in this study includes the Embden-Meyerhof-Parnas pathway,the pentose phosphate pathway,the tricarboxylic acid cycle,CO2 anaplerotic reactions,ethanol and acetate formation,and pathways involved in amino acid synthesis. The approach of hybridized genetic algorithm combined with the sequential simplex technique was used to optimize a quadratic error function without the requirement of the information on the partial derivatives. The impact of some key pa-rameters on the algorithm was studied. This approach was proved to be rapid and numerically stable in the analysis of the central metabolism of S.cerevisiae.展开更多

It has an AOX (alcohol oxidase) protein which has been characterised to be a strong and tightly methanol-inducible dependent promoter. Metabolomics is the systematic study and inclusive analysis of small molecules called metabolites in a biological system. Metabolomics plays an important part in connecting the phenotype and genotype gap because it magnifies the modifications in the proteome and provides a better phenotype representation of an organism. This quantitative study has provided a new perception on the metabolic burden derived from the overexpression of recombinant protein in methylotrophic yeast. In this review, we discuss the fundamental aspect of metabolomics in methylotrophic yeast followed by their latest developments.展开更多

The formation age and petrogenesis of the granite are determined, and the regional tectonic background is discussed. Zircons from the granite are euhe-dral-subhedral in shape, and display fine-scale oscillatory growth zoning, indicating a magmatie origin. LA- ICP-MS zircon U-Pb dating result indicates that the garnet-bearing muscovite monzogranites formed in the mid-dle Triassic (243 Ma ). The garnet-bearing muscovite monzogranites have high SiO2 (SiO2 = 74.1%- 76.49% ), rich aluminum (A1203 = 14.47%-14.68% ) and alkali ( NazO + K20 = 4.31%-7.9% ), low Fe203T and MgO (MgO =0.1%-0. 13% , Fe203T =0.46%-1.02% ). The ratio of CaO/Na20 is between 0.17--0. 21. The garnet-bearing muscovite monzogranites in Yitong region are relatively enriched in light rare earth elements (LREEs) and large ion lithophile elements (LILEs) , and depleted of heavy rare earth elements (HREEs) and high field strength elements (HFSEs). They are characterized by high Sr and Ba, poor Rb and Y, and negative Eu abnormally (δEu =0.48-0.62) , with Rb/Sr 〈 1. The εHf(t) values and TDM2 of zircons range from + 6. 10 to + 8.00 and from 725 Ma to 814 Ma, respectively. The above features indicate that gar- net-bearing muscovite monzogranites in Yitong area were derived from partial melting of metasedimentary rock. These granites have high Sr/Y ratios, which suggest they formed in a thickened continental crust. Combined with the coeval granitic rocks in central Jilin Province, we suggested that a significant eollisional and thickening event took place during the Middle Triassic.展开更多

Sixty Large White × Landrace primiparous sows were divided into four groups (fifteen sows per group). The control group was fed with basal diet, the others were fed with basal diet supplemented with 0.02%, 0.04% and 0.06% PFA, respectively. Compared with the control, the sows in 0.04% PFA group had higher feed intake during lactation and higher litter weaning weight (P 〈 0.05). At farrowing, glucose level in 0.04% PFA sows was higher than the control and sows in 0.02% PFA had the highest IgG content among the treatments (P 〈 0.05). On day 7 of lactation, serum urea nitrogen contents were lower in response to PFA supplementation compared to the control (P 〈 0.05). At the same time, sows fed the 0.06% PFA diet increased the lysozyme activity (P 〈 0.05). The levels of milk lactose and IgG were increased in 0.02% and 0.04% PFA groups (P 〈 0.05). In conclusion, feeding PFA improved sows and litter performance, serum metabolite concentrations, lgG level and lysozyme activity at postpartum and milk quality.展开更多

However, the production of second-generation ethanol from lignocellulosic biomass, which is abundantly available worldwide, remains under development. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possibility of using the Musa cavendischii banana tree pseudostem as a substrate for alcoholic fermentation. Hydrolisis methods using dilute sulfuric acid (1% and 2% H2SO4; 15 and 30 min; 90 ℃, 100 ℃ and 120 ℃) and enzymes (pH 5.5; and 45 ℃ for 24 h reaction time) were evaluated both separately and in combination. The effect of chemical pre-treatment of the substrate using 1% and 3% m/m NaOH (120 ℃, 15 min) was verified for both methods. The highest yield coefficient of fermentable sugars from dry biomass (Yrs = 74%) was obtained using enzymatic hydrolysis and pre-treatment with 3% NaOH. Using acid hydrolysis, the maximum yield obtained was 22% (1% H2SO4, 120 ℃, 30 min). Fermentation of the hydrolysates was satisfactory, and the maximum yield of ethanol formed per unit of substrate consumed, total productivity and efficiency values were 0.35 g, 0.90 g ethanol L^-1·h^-1 and 65.9%, respectively. This demonstrates the utility of banana tree pseudostems in second-generation ethanol production.展开更多

Se-yeast (Selenium-enriched yeast) is a common form of selenium used to supplement dietary intake of this important trace mineral. In the present study, we tried to prepare an organic selenocystine using locally isolated bread yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). A novel locally prepared date extract media enriched by addition of 0.2% KH2PO4 (potassium phosphate), 0.6% ammonium sulfate was adopted as alternative culture media. Differences concentrations of selenium salt (30, 60, 120 and 240 lag/mL) were added to the yeast culture media. While the best concentration of selenium added was 30Bg/mL, it achieved optimal conditions for the growth of yeast and the production of red yeast growth identical to the standard. The products (organic selenocystine) were analyzed by HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography) and AAS (Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer) comparing with authentic standard obtained from Sigma. Results confirmed the formation of similar selenocystine products.展开更多

The results indicate that the Songjianghe biotite monzogranite was formed in the Middle Jurassic with an age of 168. 2 ± 2. 0 Ma( MSWD = 0. 93). The monzogranite was characterized by high alkali and low Ca O and Mg O,belonging to high-potassium calc-alkaline,metaluminous I-type granite. The rock is enriched in large ion lithophile elements such as Rb,Ba,and K and strongly depleted high field strength elements such as P,Ti,Nb,and Ta. It is concluded that the Songjianghe biotite monzogranite was derived from partial melting of amphibolite facies metamorphism mafic lower-crust and its formation was controlled by the Pacific Plate subduction.展开更多
