Urban thermal anomalies profoundly impact human society, affecting daily life, public health, and residential comfort. Prior studies linked to urban morphology evolution land use change during urbanization based on multi-indicator quantification of linear regression modeling. However, it remained unclear which elements predominantly dominate whether their is solely linear, understanding the diverse mechanisms through how influences various across seasons remains limited. Therefore, this...
Human activities mostly impact the trend and direction of rainwater, groundwater, other river basin resources in watershed Africa. These alter flows quality usable water supplies at both highlands lowlands. A is indeed a conserved area land that collects rain, sleet snow, empties or penetrates groundwater sources. The act managing around integrated management, which considers social, economic, environmental issues tandem with human, institutional, natural, sustainability systems, are key...
Purpose – Sustainable tourism development and outdoor activities are linked to the effective utilization of open spaces green corridors within city. The regeneration revitalization this landscape vital for emergence a smart, resilient, biophilic city health well-being both residents tourists. This area is part urban fabric essential transportation network interconnectivity metropolitan space. wetland corridor comprise marshes canal drainage routes located setbacks Ikeja, Ojodu, Agidingbi,...
Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs), after surface modification to provide water solubility and biocompatibility, have a promising future in biomedical applications. In this study, dual receptor–targeting dual-modality PET/near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) probe was developed for accurate assessment of the pharmacokinetics tumor-targeting efficacy QDs. <b>Methods:</b> QDs were modified by β-Glu-RGD-BBN (RGD is arginine-glycine-aspartate acid, BBN bombesin) peptides then labeled with...
Abstract A fully automated synthesis of N ‐succinimidyl 4‐[ 18 F]fluorobenzoate ([ F]SFB) was carried out by a convenient three‐step, one‐pot procedure on the modified TRACERlab FX FN synthesizer, including [ F]fluorination ethyl 4‐(trimethylammonium triflate)benzoate as precursor, saponification with aqueous tetrapropylammonium hydroxide instead sodium hydroxide, and conversion salt F]FBA) to F]SFB treated , ′, ′‐tetramethyl‐ O ‐( ‐succinimidyl)uranium tetrafluoroborate (TSTU). The purified...
The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) family of molecular chaperones regulates homeostasis, folding, and degradation. ER-resident Hsp90 isoform, glucose-regulated 94 (Grp94), promotes the aggregation mutant forms myocilin, a associated with primary open-angle glaucoma. While inhibition Grp94 degradation myocilin in vitro, to date no Grp94-selective inhibitors have been investigated vivo. Here, inhibitor facilitated rescued phenotypes transgenic mouse model hereditary Ocular toxicities previously...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of death and disability in the USA world; it constitutes 30% injury-related deaths (Taylor et al., MMWR Surveill Summ 66:1-16, 2017). Contact sports athletes often experience repetitive TBI (rTBI), which exerts cumulative effect later life. Visual impairment common after-effect TBI. Previously, we have shown that C-C chemokine 20 (CCL20) plays critical role neurodegeneration inflammation following (Das J Neuroinflammation 8:148, 2011). receptor 6...
The comprehensive application of ecosystem service value (ESV) and ecological risk index (ERI) assessment can provide better decision support for regional environment protection. Based on the remote sensing image data Wuhu city 1995, 2005 2016, paper analyzed spatial-temporal evolution ESV ERI in its associated characteristics using an ESV, assessments a bivariate spatial autocorrelation method. results showed that (1) total continued to decline from 1995 with decrease US$ 363.664 million....
Abstract Traumatic brain injury is a leading cause of death and disability around the world. So far, drugs are not available to repair damage. Human mesenchymal stem cell (hMSC) transplantation therapy promising approach, although inflammatory microenvironment injured affects efficacy transplanted hMSCs. We hypothesize that reducing inflammation in cerebral by pro-inflammatory chemokines prior hMSC administration will improve therapy. In rat model lateral fluid percussion injury, combined...
S-(11)C-methyl-L-cysteine ((11)C-MCYS), an analog of S-(11)C-methyl-L-methionine ((11)C-MET), can potentially serve as amino acid PET tracer for tumor imaging. The aim this study was to investigate the radiosynthesis and perform a biologic evaluation (11)C-MCYS imaging tracer. results first human are reported.(11)C-MCYS prepared by (11)C-methylation precursor L-cysteine with (11)CH(3)I purification on commercial C18 cartridges. In vitro competitive inhibition experiments were performed...
The existence and functional relevance of efferent optic nerve fibers in mammals have long been debated. While anatomical evidence for cortico-retinal retino-retinal projections is substantial, physiological lacking, as are few number severed studies excised retinal tissue. Here we show that interocular connections contribute to bioelectrical activity adult mammals. Full-field flash electroretinograms (ERGs) were recorded from one or both eyes Brown-Norway rats under dark-adapted ( n = 16)...
“Dock Village” terrain is, as its name implies, a region that contains settlements reminiscent of docks, in terms their elongated shape, outward upward tilt, and location the center low, wide valleys. Dock village features deep, fertile soil suitable for farming. Taihu Lake number classic examples dock villages. villages are relatively independent hidden, characteristics not only play role security defense, but also, more importantly, associated with enhanced climate adaptability, relative...
