A great deal has been learned over the past 30 years regarding both the intrinsic factors and the environmental factors that regulate axon growth, but this large body of information has not yet resulted in clinically available thera- peutics. This therapeutic bottleneck has many root causes, but a consensus is emerging that one contributing factor is a lack of standards for experi- mental design and reporting. The absence of reporting standards, and even of commonly accepted definitions of key words, also make data mining and bioinformatics analysis of neural plasticity and regeneration difficult, if not impossible. This short review will consider relevant background and poten- tial solutions to this problem in the axon regeneration domain.展开更多

The Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (hereinafter referred to as the forum) is a plat-form for collective dialogue and mechanism of practical cooperation jointly created by China and African countries at the turn of the century, with the aim of establishing a new type of China-Africa strategic partnership for long-term stability and mutual benefits in the 21st century The Chinese government's promotion of the strategic importance of relations with Africa is due to a variety of factors, the most important of which is the change in demand for Africa triggered by the sustained and rapid growth of China's economy against the backdrop of globalization. Thanks to the effective operation of the forum mechanism, China-Africa relations have shown a good trend of comprehensive and rapid development.展开更多

The data came from three sources: her essays, reflective journals, and my semi-structured interviews with her. Major findings can be summed up as follows: 1) at the initial stage, the participant was weak in rational thinking; 2) as she had more writing practice, she made progress in ideas and organization of ideas but not in expression of ideas; and 3) factors facilitating or constraining her development primarily include language input, cultural identification, teacher feedback and motivation.展开更多

文摘Progress in developing robust therapies for spinal cord injury (SCI), trau- matic brain injury (TBI) and peripheral nerve injury has been slow. A great deal has been learned over the past 30 years regarding both the intrinsic factors and the environmental factors that regulate axon growth, but this large body of information has not yet resulted in clinically available thera- peutics. This therapeutic bottleneck has many root causes, but a consensus is emerging that one contributing factor is a lack of standards for experi- mental design and reporting. The absence of reporting standards, and even of commonly accepted definitions of key words, also make data mining and bioinformatics analysis of neural plasticity and regeneration difficult, if not impossible. This short review will consider relevant background and poten- tial solutions to this problem in the axon regeneration domain.

文摘Major facilitator superfamily(MFS)transporters are secondary active membrane transporters that play an important role in solute interchange and energy metabolism.Peronophythora litchii causes the most destructive disease on lichi,litchi downy blight.PlM90 was reported as a key oosporogenesis regulator.Here,we identified an MFS transporter gene PlMFS1,which is up-regulated during oospore formation at the late infection stage,while down-regulated in the PlM90 mutant.To investigate PlMFS1 function,we generated PlMFS1knockout mutants using CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genome editing technology.Compared with the wild-type strain SHS3,PlMFS1 deletion impaired mycelium growth,zoospore release,oospore production and pathogenicity.Furthermore,PlMFS1 deletion significantly affected P.litchii utilization of fructose,lactose and maltose,and may be the PlMFS1 mechanism involved in mycelial growth.PlMFS1 gene deletion also led to deceased laccase activity,laccase-encoding gene downregulation and impaired P.litchii pathogenicity.To our knowledge,this is the first report of an MFS transporter involved in sugar utilization,sexual reproduction,asexual reproduction and pathogenesis in oomycetes.

文摘Sulfate transporters(SULTRs)facilitate sulfate uptake and transport in plants.In plants,SULTRs can be classified into four distinct functional groups,among which SULTR3 members are the least characterized,and their functions have not yet been confirmed,especially for SULTR3 in rice.In this study,we analyzed the expression patterns,subcellular localization,and inorganic phosphate(Pi)transporter activity of SULTR3 proteins in yeast.Except for OsSULTR3.4,which localized to the plasma membrane,other OsSULTR3 members were localized to the endoplasmic reticulum(ER)membrane in rice protoplast cells.
文摘BACKGROUND Enhancing work engagement among physical education(PE)teachers is crucial for building a strong sports nation and fostering educational advancement.However,PE teachers frequently experience conflicts between work and family roles,significantly impacting their professional involvement.The concept of work-family facilitation,highlighting mutual facilitation between work and family domains,has considerable theoretical and practical significance but remains underexplored in this context.This study integrates ecosystem theory,spillover theory,social exchange theory,and two-factor theory to systematically explore the mechanism through which work-family facilitation influences work engagement.Specifically,it investigates the roles of psychological resilience and job satisfaction in this relationship,providing a novel theoretical perspective and empirical evidence.AIM To systematically explore the mechanism through which work-family facilitation influences work engagement among PE teachers.METHODS A cross-sectional questionnaire survey was conducted among 436 PE teachers.Structural equation modeling was used to examine relationships among variables and assess mediating effects.RESULTS Work-family facilitation positively correlated with psychological resilience,job satisfaction,and work engagement(r=0.323-0.705,P<0.001).Psychological resilience and job satisfaction fully mediated the relationship between work-family facilitation and work engagement,demonstrating a significant chain mediation effect.CONCLUSION This study confirms that promoting work-family facilitation enhances psychological resilience and job satisfaction,thereby significantly boosting work engagement among PE teachers.These findings underline the importance of targeted interventions to enhance work-family resources,psychological resilience,and job satisfaction,contributing to theoretical advancements and practical implications for educational management.
