Known as the 'third polar region', Qinghai-Tibet Plateau represents one of harshest highland environments in world and yet a number organisms thrive there. Previous studies birds, animals humans have focused on well-differentiated populations later stages phenotypic divergence. The adaptive processes during initial phase adaptation remain poorly understood. We studied human commensal, Eurasian Tree Sparrow, which has followed agriculture to Plateau. Despite strong differentiation at multiple...

Lead (Pb) is well-recognized for its great hazards to human and wildlife health. It has negative influences on multiple organs systems of birds. Especially, lead exposure caused adverse impacts bird reproduction. In this study, one week old female Japanese quails were randomly allocated into four groups each group was respectively fed with 0, 50 ppm, 500 ppm 1000 Pb in drinking water 36 days determine the effects chronic ovarian development function. The results showed that did accumulate...

Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most prevalent malignant brain tumor with poor prognosis. Although chromatin intratumoral heterogeneity a characteristic feature of GBM, current studies are conducted at single site. To investigate GBM-specific 3D genome organization and its heterogeneity, we Hi-C experiments in 21 GBM samples from nine patients, along three normal samples. We identified subcompartmentalization interactions specific to as well extensive intertumoral these levels. copy number...

Background The highly pathogenic H5N1 avian influenza emerged in the year 1996 Asia, and has spread to Europe Africa recently. At present, effective monitoring data analysis of are not sufficient Chinese mainland. Methodology/Principal Findings During period from April 2004 August 2007, we collected 14,472 wild bird samples covering 56 species 10 orders 14 provinces China monitored prevalence flu virus based on RT-PCR specific for subtype. 149 positive involved six orders. Anseriformes had...

Abstract The present study examined the effects of chronic cadmium (Cd) exposure on metamorphosis, body size, thyroid gland, and skeletal development Chinese toad ( Bufo gargarizans ) tadpoles. Tadpoles were exposed to Cd concentrations at 0, 5, 10, 50, 100, 500 μg/L from Gosner stages 26 46 completion metamorphosis. Our results showed that 100 increased mortality decelerated metamorphosis rate. In addition, significant size reduction stage 42 was observed treatments p < 0.01). Average...

The Xinjiang is an important coal production base in China and also a serious fire disaster area. Coal fires not only waste resources, but cause air pollution damage to the ecological environment. Hence, it very identify monitor underground areas accurately efficiently for control of fires. Interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) technology identifies monitors by monitoring surface subsidence caused burned out Compared with traditional technology, InSAR has advantages all-weather...

Since accumulating evidence suggests the application of anesthetics may increase risk Alzheimer's disease (AD), we investigated cytotoxicity inhaled general anesthesia in neurons and its underlying mechanism. Using primary cultured rat hippocampal as study model, here show that isoflurane increases vulnerability to intracellular or extracellular amyloid β with without serum deprivation. This isoflurane-induced effect is mediated by downregulation miR-214 level lead an elevated expression...

The objective of this study is to explore the potential target genes in pathogenesis esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). mRNA expression profile data GSE17351 were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database, including five paired ESCC and normal tissue samples patients. differentially expressed (DEGs) between identified using limma package. DEGs then performed clustering analysis functional enrichment analysis. Additionally, gene–miRNA network, gene-transcription factor...
