PKD is a common condition affecting approximately 1 in 500 individuals worldwide. The most prevalent type of PKD is autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD). ADPKD is caused by mutations in either the PKD1 or PKD2 genes, which encode for proteins involved in cell growth and differentiation. These mutations lead to the formation of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys, which can eventually lead to kidney failure. In addition to affecting the kidneys, PKD can also cause cysts in other organs, such as the liver, pancreas, and spleen. PKD can also lead to various complications, including high blood pressure, heart valve abnormalities, and brain aneurysms. This review focuses on the inheritance, pathophysiology, and treatment of PKD, with a specific emphasis on its effects on the cardiovascular system. Currently, there is no cure for PKD. However, several treatments are available to manage the symptoms and complications of the disease. These treatments include medications to control blood pressure, pain relievers, antibiotics for infections, and dialysis or kidney transplantation for kidney failure. Tolvaptan is the only FDA-approved drug specifically for ADPKD and has been shown to slow disease progression. In addition to summarizing current treatment options, this review will discuss promising future treatments, such as gene therapy and stem cell therapy.展开更多

文摘Outer-independent Roman domination on graphs originates from the defensive strategy of Ancient Rome,which is that if any city without an army is attacked,a neighboring city with two armies could mobilize an army to support it and any two cities that have no army cannot be adjacent.The outer-independent Roman domination on graphs is an attractive topic in graph theory,and the definition is described as follows.Given a graph G=(V,E),a function f:V(G)→{0,1,2}is an outer-independent Roman dominating function(OIRDF)if f satisfies that every vertex v∈V with f(v)=0 has at least one adjacent vertex u∈N(v)with f(u)=2,where N(v)is the open neighborhood of v,and the set V0={v|f(v)=0}is an independent set.The weight of an OIRDF f is w(f)=∑_(v∈V)f(v).The value of minf w(f)is the outerindependent Roman domination number of G,denoted asγoiR(G).This paper is devoted to the study of the outer-independent Roman domination number of the Cartesian product of paths P_(n)□P_(m).With the help of computer,we find some recursive OIRDFs and then we present an upper bound ofγoiR(P_(n)□P_(m)).Furthermore,we prove the lower bound ofγoiR(P_(n)□P_(m))(n≤3)is equal to the upper bound.Hence,we achieve the exact value ofγoiR(P_(n)□P_(m))for n≤3 and the upper bound ofγoiR(P_(n)□P_(m))for n≥4.

文摘Consider a graph G=(V,E).A perfect double Roman dominating function(PDRDF for short)is a function h:V→{0,1,2,3}that satisfies the condition∑_(y∈NG[x],h(y)≥1)h(y)=|{y∈NG(x):h(y)≥1}|+2 for any x∈V with h(x)≤1.The weightω(h)of this function is∑_(y∈V)h(y).The perfect double Roman domination number(PDRD-number)of G,denoted byγ_(dR)^(p)(G),is defined as the minimum weight among all PDRDFs of G.This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the PDRD-number of connected cographs,demonstrating that it falls within the set{2,3,4,5,6}.Furthermore,it establishes that for any integer i≥7,there is a connected cograph G such that its PDRD-number is equal to i.

文摘In plants,numerous non-Mendelian inherited dominant effects,including over-,incomplete-,and codominance,are frequently observed,yet they remain insufficiently understood.A novel phenotype has been identified in specific soybean transformants overexpressing a single 35S::GmFT2a copy:superearly flowering dominance is exclusively observed in hemizygotes,not in homozygotes.Homozygous individual exhibits si RNA-mediated DNA methylation,causing epigenetic transcriptional silencing,whereas no such effect occurs in hemizygotes.Intriguingly,two distinct rounds of DNA methylation establishment occur,each mediated by a different mechanism.The homozygotes that derived from the hemizygous mother plants carrying 35S::GmFT2a locus was associated with the initiation of CHHcontext DNA methylation at 35S promoters mediated by 21 and 22 nucleotide(nt)si RNAs.Subsequently,24 nt si RNAs contribute to additional CHG-and CG-context DNA methylation at 35S promoters during the homozygosity of genes in plants already homozygous in maternal lineage.Reducing DNA methylation levels can be achieved by generating a hemizygous genotype through a crossing experiment with a recessive genotype.This research has unveiled a phenomenon:hemizygote-dependent dominance resulting from transcriptional silencing in homozygote offsprings.It provides new insights into the molecular mechanism underlying dominant effects.

文摘Background Crossbreeding is widely promoted as an efficient strategy to improve the productivity in agriculture.The molecular mechanism underlying heterosis for egg production is always intriguing in chicken.The transcriptional dynamic changes play a crucial role in the formation of heterosis,but little is known for the egg production traits.Results In present study,we measured the continuous manifestation of heterosis ranging from 2.67%to 10.24%for egg number in the crossbreds generated by reciprocal crossing White Leghorn and Beijing You chicken.The high-quality transcriptomes of ovary for purebreds(WW and YY)and crossbreds(WY and YW)in 5 laying stages were sequenced and integrated to identify regulatory networks relevant to the heterosis.We found highly conserved transcriptional features among 4 genetic groups.By using weighted gene co-expression network analysis(WGCNA),we obtained multiple gene co-expression modules that were significantly correlated with egg number for each group.The common KEGG pathways including apelin signaling pathway,cell cycle,ribosome,spliceosome and oxidative phosphorylation,were screened for the 2 crossbreds.Then,we identified consensus co-expression modules(CMs)that showed divergent expression pattern among crossbred(WY or YW)and purebreds(WW and YY).The hub genes of CMs were again overrepresented in the cell cycle pathway,and the crossbreds exhibited temporally complementary dominance of hub genes in the 5 laying stages.These results suggested that the crossbreds inherited from both parents to maintain the ovary function by cell cycle-related genes,contributing to the persistent heterosis for egg production.Furthermore,the dominant genes including MAD2L1,CHEK2 and E2F1 were demonstrated to function in ovarian follicle development and maturation and could be the candidate genes for egg production heterosis.Conclusion Our study characterized the dynamic profile of genome-wide gene expression in ovary and highlighted the role of dominant expression of cell cycle pathway genes in heterosis.These findings provided new insights for the molecular mechanism of egg production heterosis,which would facilitate the rational choice of suitable parents for producing crossbred chickens with higher egg production.

文摘This study systematically investigates the concentration of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids and the distribution of geothermal radon mineral water in Shandong Province,with the aim of elucidating formation mechanisms and influencing factors.The findings indicate that the overall abundance of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids across the region is relatively low.Geothermal radon mineral water is primarily located within banded thermal reservoirs associated with bedrock fracture structures in the Ludong and Luxi uplift geothermal zones.The study reveals that the ionic composition,radioactivity intensity,and extent of water-rock interactions exert only effects in the concentration of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids.The formation of geothermal radon mineral water is predominantly governed by“fracture-controlled”mechanisms,with thermal reservoir lithology,fracture tectonics,and seismic activity serving as key determinants.Additionally,the enrichment of ^(222)Rn in geothermal fluids is influenced by factors such as geothermal fluid temperature,depth of occurrence,cap rock thickness,and alteration processes.The genetic mechanisms of geothermal radon mineral water can be categorized into two types:„native‟and„composite‟.These findings provide critical insights into the exploration and development of geothermal radon mineral water resources in Shandong and similar regions.

文摘Utilizing the Standardized Precipitation Evapotranspiration Index(SPEI)and ERA5 reanalysis data,this study investigates the variability of spring drought in southern China from 1979 to 2022 and its associated drivers.The results indicate that southern China experienced interdecadal changes in SPEI over the past several decades,which can be concluded that drought severity intensified from 1979 to 2010,whereas a transition shift towards increased wetness occurred from 2010 to 2022.The first Empirical Orthogonal Function(EOF1)mode of SPEI variability in southern China accounts for 44.37%of the total variance,reflecting a uniform variation of SPEI across the region.In contrast,the second Empirical Orthogonal Function(EOF2),which explains 24.41%of the total variance,reveals a west-east dipole pattern in SPEI variability.Further analysis indicates that the positive phase of EOF1 is primarily driven by warm sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs)in the tropical eastern Pacific.These anomalies induce an anomalous anticyclone over the Philippine Sea,enhancing water vapor transport to southern China during spring.The positive phase of EOF2 is jointly influenced by warm SSTAs in the tropical Indian Ocean and the central Pacific;the latter induces anticyclonic anomalies over the Philippine Sea,which enhance water vapor transport from the western Pacific and increase precipitation in the eastern part of southern China.However,the warm SSTAs in the tropical Indian Ocean trigger an anomalous anticyclone over South Asia,inhibiting water vapor transport from the Bay of Bengal to the western part of southern China and thus reducing precipitation there.
文摘Hereditary alpha tryptasemia was first described in 2016 and is the most common(up to 72%)cause of elevated serum basal tryptase(TPS).The clinical presentation of this condition,which is caused by copy number gains in the TPSAB1 gene encoding serumαTPS,is variable for each patient.Some patients are asymptomatic,whereas in others,especially those with increased mast cell activation,it has been associated with a higher risk of anaphylaxis.Better characterization of this entity is important to identify atrisk patients and to develop new treatment strategies.This review provided an overview of hereditary alpha tryptasemia and increased awareness of this condition by discussing the current information in the literature.

文摘In floristic research,the grid mapping method is a crucial and highly effective tool for investigating the flora of specific regions.This methodology aids in the collection of comprehensive data,thereby promoting a thorough understanding of regional plant diversity.This paper presents findings from a grid mapping study conducted in the Surkhan-Sherabad botanical-geographic region(SShBGR),acknowledged as one of the major floristic areas in southwestern Uzbekistan.Using an expansive dataset of 14,317 records comprised of herbarium specimens and field diary entries collected from 1897 to 2023,we evaluated the stages and seasonal dynamics of data accumulation,species richness(SR),and collection density(CD)within 5 km×5 km grid cells.We further examined the taxonomic and life form composition of the region's flora.Our analysis revealed that the grid mapping phase(2021–2023)produced a significantly greater volume of specimens and taxonomic diversity compared with other periods(1897–1940,1941–1993,and 1994–2020).Field research spanned 206 grid cells during 2021–2023,resulting in 11,883 samples,including 6469 herbarium specimens and 5414 field records.Overall,fieldwork covered 251 of the 253 grid cells within the SShBGR.Notably,the highest species diversity was documented in the B198 grid cell,recording 160 species.In terms of collection density,the E198 grid cell produced 475 samples.Overall,we identified 1053 species distributed across 439 genera and 78 families in the SShBGR.The flora of this region aligned significantly with the dominant families commonly found in the Holarctic,highlighting vital ecological connections.Among our findings,the Asteraceae family was the most polymorphic,with 147 species,followed by the continually stable and diverse Poaceae,Fabaceae,Brassicaceae,and Amaranthaceae.Besides,our analysis revealed a predominance of therophyte life forms,which constituted 52%(552 species)of the total flora.The findings underscore the necessity for continual data collection efforts to further enhance our understanding of the biodiversity in the SShBGR.The results of this study demonstrated that the application of grid-based mapping in floristic studies proves to be an effective tool for assessing biodiversity and identifying key taxonomic groups.

文摘Microbial participation in biofortification can improve the availability of selenium(Se)in soil and contribute to the enrichment of Se in crops.In this study,a selenite(Se(IV))reducing strain was isolated from Se-rich soil,and its Se transformation and bio-enhancement ability were studied.The strain was identified as Bacillus pseudomycoides and could reduce more than 93.48%of 1.0 m M Se(IV)in 54 h.The results of scanning electron microscope(SEM)and energy dispersive Xray spectrometry(EDS)showed that Se(IV)was reduced to Se(0),and Se nanoparticles(Se NPs)were eventually formed.In pot experiments,B.pseudomycoides SA14 could promote the bioavailable Se in soils and the concentration of Se in Brassica chinensis L..The concentrations of watersoluble Se,ion exchange Se and carbonate-binding Se in soil were increased by 23.13%,22.05%and 30.89%,respectively.The Se concentration of Brassica chinensis L.in pot experiments was increased by 145.05%.The relative abundance of Bacillus in soil increased from 0.97%to 2.08%in the pot experiments.As far as we know,this is the first report of Se reduction by B.pseudomycoides.This study might provide a prospective strategy for microbial fortification of Se in crops.
文摘Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder that causes the formation of multiple cysts in the kidneys, leading to kidney failure. PKD is a common condition affecting approximately 1 in 500 individuals worldwide. The most prevalent type of PKD is autosomal dominant PKD (ADPKD). ADPKD is caused by mutations in either the PKD1 or PKD2 genes, which encode for proteins involved in cell growth and differentiation. These mutations lead to the formation of fluid-filled cysts in the kidneys, which can eventually lead to kidney failure. In addition to affecting the kidneys, PKD can also cause cysts in other organs, such as the liver, pancreas, and spleen. PKD can also lead to various complications, including high blood pressure, heart valve abnormalities, and brain aneurysms. This review focuses on the inheritance, pathophysiology, and treatment of PKD, with a specific emphasis on its effects on the cardiovascular system. Currently, there is no cure for PKD. However, several treatments are available to manage the symptoms and complications of the disease. These treatments include medications to control blood pressure, pain relievers, antibiotics for infections, and dialysis or kidney transplantation for kidney failure. Tolvaptan is the only FDA-approved drug specifically for ADPKD and has been shown to slow disease progression. In addition to summarizing current treatment options, this review will discuss promising future treatments, such as gene therapy and stem cell therapy.

文摘Plant community composition typically undergoes progressive changes along environmental gradients.However,most experimental studies have focused on individual communities,so it remains unclear how exogenous nutrient inputs affect the stability of plant communities along environmental gradients.Along a rainfall gradient on the northern Tibetan Plateau,we conducted an 8-year nitrogen(N)addition experiment in four alpine grasslands:alpine desert steppe(ADS),alpine steppe(AS),alpine meadow steppe(AMS),alpine meadow(AM),and we used twoway ANOVA to examine the effects of N addition on the temporal stability of these different alpine grasslands.We found that community aboveground biomass showed saturation trends in AM and AMS with increasing N gradients,while there was no change in AS and a gradual increase in ADS.The temporal stability showed different patterns of gradual decreases in ADS and AM,and a unimodal trend in AMS with increasing N gradients.However,N addition had no effect on the temporal stability of AS.Dominant species stability was the controlling factor for alpine grasslands along the transect,while the effect of asynchrony gradually increased with decreasing precipitation.These findings highlight that community composition,especially the dominant species,along the environmental gradient can mediate the effects of N inputs on community temporal stability.Thus,the conservation and restoration of the dominant species are particularly important under future scenarios of increased atmospheric N deposition.

文摘In recent years,many studies have focused on the effects of global climate warming and increased nitrogen deposition on the structure and function of grassland ecosystem.However,there are still significant uncertainties in the response mechanism of stability of plant community biomass in alpine meadows of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau,China to these two major climate factors.Given this,based on field control experiments,this study systematically evaluated the effects of different levels of climate warming(W0(no warming),W1(air temperature increased by 0.47℃ or soil temperature increased by 0.61℃),W2(air temperature increased by 0.92℃ or soil temperature increased by 1.09℃),W3(air temperature increased by 1.44℃ or soil temperature increased by 1.95℃)),nitrogen deposition(N0(0 kg N/(hm^(2)·a)),N16(16 kg N/(hm^(2)·a)),and N32(32 kg N/(hm^(2)·a))),and their interactions on plant community biomass and its temporal stability,and explored its potential regulatory mechanisms.The results showed that the biomass of total community,Gramineae,and dominant species increased significantly with increasing temperature,but the biomass of common and rare species decreased significantly.Nitrogen deposition also significantly promoted the biomass accumulation of community and gramineous plants.Under the treatment of W3N32,the biomass of plant community,Gramineae,and dominant species reached the highest values,indicating that there was a synergistic effect under this treatment.Structural equation model showed that increasing temperature significantly decreased the stability of plant community biomass by reducing the stability of grass and dominant species biomass and weakening species asynchronism.Interaction of increased nitrogen deposition and temperature increased the biomass fluctuation of grass functional group,thus amplifying its negative influence on community stability.More attention should be paid to the response and regulatory mechanisms of dominant species and functional groups under global climate change.This study provides a theoretical basis for revealing the stability maintenance mechanism of alpine grassland and also provides scientific support for the development of future grassland ecosystem management and assessment.

文摘Patterns and drivers of species–genetic diversity correlations(SGDCs)have been broadly examined across taxa and ecosystems and greatly deepen our understanding of how biodiversity is maintained.However,few studies have examined the role of canopy structural heterogeneity,which is a defining feature of forests,in shaping SGDCs.Here,we determine what factors contribute toα-andβ-species–genetic diversity correlations(i.e.,α-andβ-SGDCs)in a Chinese subtropical forest.For this purpose,we used neutral molecular markers to assess genetic variation in almost all adult individuals of the dominant tree species,Lithocarpus xylocarpus,across plots in the Ailaoshan National Natural Reserve.We also quantified microhabitat variation by quantifying canopy structure heterogeneity with airborne laser scanning on 201-ha subtropical forest plots.We found that speciesα-diversity was negatively correlated with geneticα-diversity.Canopy structural heterogeneity was positively correlated with speciesα-diversity but negatively correlated with geneticα-diversity.These contrasting effects contributed to the formation of a negativeα-SGDC.Further,we found that canopy structural heterogeneity increases speciesα-diversity and decreases geneticα-diversity by reducing the population size of target species.Speciesβ-diversity,in contrast,was positively correlated with geneticβ-diversity.Differences in canopy structural heterogeneity between plots had non-linear parallel effects on the two levels ofβ-diversity,while geographic distance had a relatively weak effect onβ-SGDC.Our study indicates that canopy structural heterogeneity simultaneously affects plot-level community species diversity and population genetic diversity,and species and genetic turnover across plots,thus drivingα-andβ-SGDCs.

文摘Volcanic reservoirs demonstrate strong heterogeneity and substantial variations in productivity due to the complexity of volcanic eruption and lithology.The main types of reservoir space are not clear,and the dominant lithofacies distribution,particularly the favorable areas for high-quality reservoirs,remains to be determined.In this paper,the Huoshiling Formation in the Dehui faulted depression,Songliao Basin is taken as an example to carry out the multi-scale joint characterization of its pore throat structure,establish a reservoir evaluation standard that considers both the gas content and seepage capacity,and perform reservoir evaluation and play fairway mapping under facies control.The results show that the storage space types of the gas-bearing reservoirs in the faulted depression can be ascribed into three categories and six subcategories according to the pore throat and pore characteristics.In terms of pore sizes,volcaniclastic lava rank the first,followed by volcaniclastic rocks,sedimentary volcaniclastic rocks and volcanic lava.The comprehensive evaluation parameter(Φ·K·Sg,whereΦis porosity,K permeability,and Sggas saturation)of high-quality reservoirs are all greater than 0.1.The volcanic reservoirs in the Stage-III strata are the highest in quality and largest in area of play fairways.The thermal debris flow sub-facies developed at Stage III are mainly seen along the western strike-slip fault zone in the Debei sub-sag and the southwest Nong'an tectonic belt,while those developed at Stage I are distributed along the central and eastern fault zones in the southeastern Baojia sub-sag.The favorable layer evaluation and favorable area delineation under facies control will be of certain reference significance for subsequent exploration and development of volcanic gas reservoirs.
