Methods: The expression of the SLC6A8 gene in liver cancer tissues was analyzed using the TCGA database, and its correlation with BNIP3L expression was assessed. RT-PCR and Western blot techniques were employed to detect the expression of SLC6A8 and BNIP3L in human liver cancer Huh-7 and Hep3B cells. Immunofluorescence labeling and CCK-8 assay were used to observe mitochondrial autophagy and cell proliferation rate in SLC6A8-overexpressing Huh-7 and Hep3B cells. Evaluate the proliferation rate of SLC6A8-overexpressing Huh-7 and Hep3B cells after silencing BNIP3L using the CCK-8 detection method. Results: SLC6A8 was significantly overexpressed in liver cancer tissues and positively correlated with BNIP3L expression. Overexpression of SLC6A8 significantly promoted mitochondrial autophagy and proliferation of Huh-7 and Hep3B cells. Additionally, SLC6A8 overexpression significantly enhanced the expression of BNIP3L mRNA and protein. Upon BNIP3L silencing, the proliferative effect of SLC6A8 overexpression on liver cancer cells was reversed. Conclusion: High expression of SLC6A8 in liver cancer tissues is positively correlated with BNIP3L, and overexpression of SLC6A8 promotes mitochondrial autophagy and liver cancer cell proliferation. Silencing BNIP3L can reverses the effect of overexpression of SLC6A8 on liver cancer cell proliferation. This provides new targets and strategies for the treatment of liver cancer.展开更多

A total of 920 Landsat Collection 1 scenes were evaluated against the corresponding Pre-Collection images over a Pseudo-Invariant Site, Railroad Valley Playa Nevada, United States (RVPN). The radiometric performance of the six Landsat solar reflective bands, in terms of both Digital Numbers (DNs) and at-sensor Top of Atmosphere (TOA) reflectance, on the sensor cross-calibration was examined. Results show that absolute radiometric calibration at DNs level was applied to the Landsat-4 and -5 TM (L4 TM and L5 TM) by –1.119% to 0.126%. For L4 TM and L5 TM, the cross-calibration decreased the radiometric measurement level by rescaling at-sensor radiance to DN values. The radiometric changes, –0.77% for L4 TM, 0.95% for L5 TM, –0.26% for L7 ETM+, and –0.01% for L8 OLI, were detected during the cross-calibration stage of converting DNs into TOA reflectance. This study has also indicated that the long-term radiometric performance for the Landsat Collection 1 archive is promising. Supports of these conclusions were demonstrated through the time-series analysis based on the Landsat Collection 1 image stack. Nevertheless, the radiometric changes across the four Landsat sensors raised concerns of the previous Landsat Pre-Collection based results. We suggest that Landsat users should pay attention to differences in results from Pre-Collection and Collection 1 time-series data sets.展开更多
