Cell-to-cell communication via Delta-Notch signaling is widely used in various tissues and organs to regulate development patterning; however, the mechanisms regulating Notch for precise cell fate decisions remain poorly understood. Similar mammals, intestinal stem cells (ISCs) adult Drosophila midgut generate both absorptive secretory progeny, guided by differential levels of activation. Here we performed a forward genetic screen identified glucosylceramide synthase (GlcT), rate-limiting...
Somatosensory neurons (SSNs) that detect and transduce mechanical, thermal, chemical stimuli densely innervate an animal’s skin. However, although epidermal cells provide the first point of contact for sensory stimuli. our understanding roles play in SSN function, particularly nociception, remains limited. Here, we show stimulating Drosophila elicits activation SSNs including nociceptors triggers a variety behavior outputs, avoidance escape. Further, find are intrinsically mechanosensitive...
We conducted an analog sampling expedition under simulated mission constraints to areas dominated by basaltic tephra of the Eldfell and Fimmvörðuháls lava fields (Iceland). Sites were selected be "homogeneous" at a coarse remote sensing resolution (10–100 m) in apparent color, morphology, moisture, grain size, with best-effort realism numbers locations replicates. Three different biomarker assays (counting nucleic-acid-stained cells via fluorescent microscopy, luciferin/luciferase assay for...
Mosquito-borne diseases account for nearly 1 million human deaths annually, yet we have a limited understanding of developmental events that influence host-seeking behavior and pathogen transmission in mosquitoes. pathogens are transmitted during blood meals, hence adult mosquito physiology been intensely studied. However, larval development shape traits, larvae respond to many the same sensory cues as adults, susceptible infection by disease-causing agents adults. Hence, better will...
Large White pigs are extensively utilized in China for their remarkable characteristics of rapid growth and the high proportion lean meat. The economic traits pigs, comprising reproductive meat quality traits, play a vital role swine production. In this study, 2295 individuals, representing three different genetic backgrounds pig populations were used: 500 from Canadian line, 295 Danish 1500 American line. GeneSeek 50K GGP porcine HD array was employed to genotype populations. Firstly,...
The flexibility and reduced harmonics have made Modular Multilevel Converters (MMC) a popular candidate in FACTS (Flexible AC Technology) applications network reinforcement. However, few publications so far address the inherent problems such as voltage imbalance across each arm. Voltage balancing control is an essential element safeguarding device reliability power quality by reducing variations between submodules output harmonics. accepted method using current sensor to measure flowing into...
An animal’s skin provides a first point of contact with the sensory environment, including noxious cues that elicit protective behavioral responses. Nociceptive somatosensory neurons densely innervate and intimately interact epidermal cells to receive these cues, however mechanisms by which interactions shape processing inputs is still poorly understood. Here, we identify role for dendrite intercalation between in tuning sensitivity Drosophila larvae mechanical stimuli. In wild-type larvae,...

Mizuhopecten yessoensis, one of the most highly favored scallops on international market, has suffered from massive summer mortalities. Water temperature is an important environmental stressor which significant effects physiological and biochemical response scallops. Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) plays a key role in defense against various stresses that could damage cellular molecular structure cells. In this study, characterization expression HSP90 M. yessoensis (designated MyHSP90) were...

As a potent greenhouse gas, soil nitrous oxide (N2O) is strongly stimulated by rising temperature, triggering positive feedback effect of global warming. However, its temperature sensitivity varies greatly among soils with different physical and chemical characteristics, while associated mechanisms remain unknown. Here we performed meta-analysis the warming on N2O emission found distinctions in response to increase textures. Then, conducted an incubation experiment 11 arable varying textures...
The reliability is one issue of great importance for the modular multilevel converters (MMCs). capacitor weakest components in MMC. To estimate health status capacitors, condition monitoring (CM) considered as an effective method and has been widely applied many MMC applications. This paper proposed a with improved accuracy, which considers effect voltage measurement unit. employs dc shift control (DVSC) to ensures low capacitance estimation error. Finally, simulation experimental...
Background: Beetroot juice (BRJ) is a dietary supplement containing high levels of nitrate and other nutrients. We previously reported that oral intake BRJ protects against cardiotoxicity doxorubicin (DOX) - widely used anticancer drug. diminished cell injury (indicated by significantly lower serum cardiac troponin I) ventricular dysfunction caused DOX. However, it remains unknown if modulates autophagy critical endogenous cellular quality control damaged organelles removal mechanism,...
