Moreover, during long-term industrial applications of bioleaching, many regulatory enhancements and technological methods are used to accelerate the interfacial reactions. With advances in microbial genetic and sequencing technologies, bacterial communities and their mechanisms in bioleaching systems have been revealed gradually. The bacterial proliferation and dissolution of sulfide ores by a bacterial community depends on the pH, temperature, oxygen, reaction product regulation, additives, and passivation substances, among other factors. The internal relationship among the influencing factors and the succession of microorganism diversity are discussed and reviewed in this paper. This paper is intended to provide a good reference for studies related to enhanced bioleaching.展开更多

On the basis of the theories ...To solve the problem of low permeability and lower extraction rates of high-mud ores, a surfactant was added as a penetrant to the pregnant leaching solution during column leaching tests. On the basis of the theories of physical chemistry and seepage flow mechanics, the mechanism by which seepage is enhanced under the effects of the surfactant was analyzed. The results show that the action modes of the surfactant were divided into four aspects: changing the wettability of the ore, reducing the viscosity of the leaching solution, adsorbing onto the surface of ore, and enhancing the permeability effect. The findings of column leaching tests demonstrated that permeability was substantially improved by the surfactant. In the later period of leaching, the permeability coefficient was two times higher than that of the control group. Meanwhile, the ore extraction rate increased by approximately 10%. During the leaching process, the surface tension of the solution did not substantially change, and that of the solution with surfactant increased slightly. The kinetics analysis of ore column leaching illustrated that the leaching processes were controlled by both internal diffusion(principal factor) and chemical reaction.展开更多

Recently, a RICE6K SNP array has been developed based on the Illumina Bead Array platform and Infinium SNP assay technology for genome-wide evaluation of allelic variations and breeding applications. In this study, the RICE6K SNP array was used to genotype a recombinant inbred line （RIL） population derived from the cross between the indica variety, Zhenshan 97, and the japonica variety, Xizang 2. A total of 3324 SNP markers of high quality were identified and were grouped into 1495 recombination bins in the RIL population. A high-density linkage map, consisting of the 1495 bins, was developed, covering 1591.2 cM and with average length ofl.1 cM per bin. Segregation distortions were observed in 24 regions of the 11 chromosomes in the RILs. One half of the distorted regions contained fertility genes that had been previously reported. A total of 23 QTLs were identified for yield. Seven QTLs were firstly detected in this study. The positive alleles from about half of the identified QTLs came from Zhenshan 97 and they had lower phenotypic values than Xizang 2. This indicated that favorable alleles for breeding were dispersed in both parents and pyramiding favorable alleles could develop elite lines. The size of the mapping population for QTL analysis using high throughput SNP genotyping platform is also discussed.展开更多

文摘Sortilin-related receptor 1(SORL1)is a critical gene associated with late-onset Alzheimer’s disease.SORL1 contributes to the development and progression of this neurodegenerative condition by affecting the transport and metabolism of intracellularβ-amyloid precursor protein.To better understand the underlying mechanisms of SORL1 in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer s disease,in this study,we established a mouse model of SorI1 gene knockout using cluste red regularly inters paced short palindro mic repeats-associated protein 9 technology.We found that Sorl1-knocko ut mice displayed deficits in learning and memory.Furthermore,the expression of brain-derived neurotrophic factor was significantly downregulated in the hippocampus and co rtex,and amyloidβ-protein deposits were observed in the brains of 5orl1-knockout mice.In vitro,hippocampal neuronal cell synapses from homozygous Sorl1-knockout mice were impaired.The expression of synaptic proteins,including Drebrin and NR2B,was significantly reduced,and also their colocalization.Additionally,by knocking out the Sorl1 gene in N2a cells,we found that expression of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor,NR2B,and cyclic adenosine monophosphate-response element binding protein was also inhibited.These findings suggest that SORL1 participates in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer s disease by regulating the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor NR2B/cyclic adenosine monophosphate-response element binding protein signaling axis.
文摘In this study,two Ru/TiO_(2)samples with different TiO_(2)facets were prepared to investigate their photo-thermal catalytic CO_(2)+H_(2)reaction behavior.Without UV irradiation,the Ru/TiO_(2)with 67%{001}facet(3 RT)displayed improved thermal catalytic activity for CO_(2)methanation than that of Ru/TiO_(2)with 30%{001}facet(0 RT).After H_(2)pretreatment,both samples exhibited enhanced thermal catalytic activities,but the H_(2)-treated 3 RT(3 RT-H)exhibited superior activity to that of the H_(2)-treated 0 RT(0 RT-H).Under UV irradiation,3 RT-H exhibited apparent photo-promoted thermal catalytic activity and stability,but the enhanced catalytic activity was lower than that of 0 RT-H.Based on the characterization results,it is proposed that both the surface oxygen vacancies(Vos)(activating CO_(2))and the metallic Ru nanoparticles(activating H_(2))were mainly responsible for CO_(2)methanation.For 0 RT,H_(2)pretreatment and subsequent UV irradiation did not promote the formation of Vos,resulting in low catalytic activity.For 3 RT,on the one hand,H_(2)pretreatment promoted the formation of Vos,which were regenerated under UV irradiation;on the other hand,the photogenerated electrons from TiO_(2)transferred to Ru to maintain the metallic Ru nanoparticles.Both behaviors promoted the activation of CO_(2)and H_(2)and enhanced CO_(2)methanation.Moreover,the photogenerated holes favored the dissociated H at Ru migrating to TiO_(2),also promoting CO_(2)methanation.These behaviors occurring on 3 RT-H may be attributed to the suitable metal-support interaction between the Ru nanoparticles and TiO_(2){001},resulting in the easy activation of lattice oxygen in TiO_(2)to Vos.With reference to the analysis of intermediates,a photo-thermal reaction mechanism is proposed for the Ru/TiO_(2){001}facet sample.

文摘High-throughput SNP genotyping is widely used for plant genetic studies. Recently, a RICE6K SNP array has been developed based on the Illumina Bead Array platform and Infinium SNP assay technology for genome-wide evaluation of allelic variations and breeding applications. In this study, the RICE6K SNP array was used to genotype a recombinant inbred line （RIL） population derived from the cross between the indica variety, Zhenshan 97, and the japonica variety, Xizang 2. A total of 3324 SNP markers of high quality were identified and were grouped into 1495 recombination bins in the RIL population. A high-density linkage map, consisting of the 1495 bins, was developed, covering 1591.2 cM and with average length ofl.1 cM per bin. Segregation distortions were observed in 24 regions of the 11 chromosomes in the RILs. One half of the distorted regions contained fertility genes that had been previously reported. A total of 23 QTLs were identified for yield. Seven QTLs were firstly detected in this study. The positive alleles from about half of the identified QTLs came from Zhenshan 97 and they had lower phenotypic values than Xizang 2. This indicated that favorable alleles for breeding were dispersed in both parents and pyramiding favorable alleles could develop elite lines. The size of the mapping population for QTL analysis using high throughput SNP genotyping platform is also discussed.
文摘BACKGROUND Geleophysic dysplasia(GD)presents the characterized clinical manifestations of acromelic dysplasia,including extremely short stature,short limbs,small hands and feet,stubby fingers and toes,joint stiffness and others.It is clinically distinct from the other acromelic dysplasia in terms of symptoms such as cardiac valvular abnormalities,progressive hepatomegaly and tracheal stenosis.CASE SUMMARY We report on a Chinese 9-year-old girl with GD with the c.5243G>T(p.C1748F)mutation in FBN1(fibrillin 1,OMIM 134797).She was born in Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region of China.The patient presented with typical clinical features of GD and recurrent respiratory tract infections over 6 years.Laboratory studies and chest computed tomography(CT)scan indicated bronchopneumonia.Her echocardiography revealed mild mitral valve thickening with regurgitation.Laryngopharyngeal CT and electronic bronchoscopy revealed severe glottic stenosis.Echocardiography examination displayed mild mitral valve thickening and regurgitation.Ophthalmic examination did not reveal myopia or lens dislocation.Treated with ceftriaxone sodium and methylprednisolone sodium succinate for injection as well as methylprednisolone orally,patient’s symptoms had improved.CONCLUSION GD is a rare genetic condition that can cause life-threatening cardiovascular and respiratory problems.This study also found that the identified genotype of GD could be related to different clinical phenotypes.
