The Himalaya are among the youngest and highest mountains in world, but exact timing of their uplift origins biodiversity still debate. Himalayan region is a relatively small area with exceptional diversity endemism. One common hypothesis to explain rich montane uplift-driven diversification-that orogeny creates conditions favoring rapid
ABSTRACT Several cell types have been proposed to create the required microenvironment for spermatogenesis. However, expression patterns of key growth factors produced by these somatic cells not systematically studied and no such factor has conditionally deleted from its primary source(s), raising question which type(s) are physiological sources factors. Here, using single-cell RNA sequencing a series fluorescent reporter mice, we found that stem (Scf), one essential spermatogenesis, was...
In August 2022, an unprecedented compound heatwave and drought event (CHDE) lasting 24 days occurred in the Yangtze River valley (YRV), leading to severe reduction of crop, fresh water and power supply. We constructed a joint cumulative probability distribution of intensity, found that lowest probability-based index (PI) of 0.06 2022 was estimated as a 1-in-662-year over 1961–2022 climate. then...
During March to May (MAM) 2023, Southwestern China experienced a prolonged hot and dry spring. This study investigates the role of anthropogenic climate change (ACC) in this extreme event its impact on crop yields, using 525-member ensemble from HadGEM3 atmospheric model WOFOST agricultural model, respectively. Observational results indicate that area-averaged surface air temperature anomaly (TAS) was 1.4°C higher than usual, percentage anomalous precipitation (PAP) nearly 33% below...
Based on both morphological and genetic data, we describe a new cryptic species of Calotes from southeastern Xizang Autonomous Region, China. The was confused with C. paulus, it is morphologically most similar to members the paulus complex (namely sinyik, zolaiking), but shows considerable divergence closely resembled congeners can be diagnosed by having more vertebral crest scales, scale rows at mid body, caudal vertebrae. With description species, also remove reptile fauna
Abstract The pathogenesis of glomerular scarring is multifactional; recent evidence suggests that transforming growth factor β (TGFβ), a pleiotropic cicatricial mediator, may promote mesangial sclerosis by enhancing the production extracellular matrix proteins. We studied effect TGFβ1 and TFGβ2 on collagen type IV fibronectin (FN) synthesis in human cells culture (GMC). Two hours after addition TGFβ, an up to twofold increase abundance mRNA was found, which further increased fivefold within...
Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and skeletal (SSCs) cohabit in the bone marrow. KITL (C-KIT ligand) from LEPR+ adult marrow stromal is pivotal for HSC maintenance. In contrast, it remains unclear whether KITL/C-KIT signaling also regulates SSCs. Here, we lineage traced C-KIT+ found that C-KIT was expressed by fetal, but not postnatal progenitors. Fetal gave rise to 20% of marrow, forming nearly half all osteoblasts. Disruption mTOR fetal impaired formation. Notably, conditional deletion Kitl...
Recent studies have highlighted the underestimated diversity of genus Diploderma Hallowell, 1861 in Hengduan Mountain Region Southwest China, but much region remains poorly surveyed for reptile diversity. In this study we describe two new species from upper Jinsha and middle Yalong River Valley, based on evaluations morphological, genetic, distribution data. The are morphologically most similar to D. angustelinea vela, they can be diagnosed both recognized taxa all remaining congeners by a...
The Plateau Pit Viper, Gloydius strauchi, from southwest and central China has long been considered a single, widespread species despite suspicion that it represents potential complex of distinct evolutionary lineages. Although series works were published on the G. strauchi over last 10 yr, boundaries diagnostic features different members have remained poorly understood. Combining both morphological genetic data, we re-evaluate taxonomic statuses populations in describe eastern Tibetan as...
As the increasing pressure to carbon peak and neutral has brought capture storage (CCS) forefront as an emission mitigation tool, greater attention is being paid potential for injecting dry boiler flue gas (DBFG) into oil reservoirs. With aim directly inject DBFG with steam heavy reservoirs, this study presents results of a laboratory investigation effect on properties composition by viscosity measurement, pressure-volume-temperature high-temperature high-pressure experiment, high-resolution...
Mountain Dragons of the genus Diploderma has experienced rapid taxonomic change in recent years. The fast rate changes often leads to insufficient data for newly described species on their morphological variation, especially regarding sexual dimorphism, as well missing information natural history and conservation status. Limited time works may also result misidentification “new species”. Among these recently species, two taxa from Yalong River Valley Southwest China, namely D. panchi Wang,...
Fundamental investigating and understanding the light harvesting process of natural antenna complexes will inspire encourage us for rational design more efficient artificial devices applications. Here, gold micro-plates have been covalently linked with photosynthetic complexes, strong fluorescent emission enhancement has observed from single micro-plate, significantly their sites can be varied through adjusting concentration complexes. Moreover, intensity excited at 480 nm is over two times...
