To investigate critical micronutrient interaction in zinc deficiency and zinc sufficient in soil, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications was conducted in 2023. Six wheat cultivars with different Zn efficiency were used. The cultivars were grown under Zn deficiency and adequate conditions. Results showed that in Zn deficiency conditions, with increasing Zn concentration in the roots, Fe concentrations were increased too, while the Cu and Mn concentrations decreased. In the same condition and with increasing Zn concentration in shoots, the concentrations of Fe and Mn decreased, while Cu were increased. However, by increasing Zn concentration, Fe, Cu, and Mn concentrations were increased in Zn deficiency condition in grains, as well as Zn sufficient conditions. RST (root to shoot micronutrient translocation) comparison of cultivars showed that in lack of Zn, the ability of translocation of Zn, Fe, and Mn in Zn-inefficient cultivar from root to shoot was higher than inefficient cultivar. In the same conditions, the capability of Zn-inefficient cultivar in Cu translocation from root to shoot was lower than other cultivars. In general, it seems that in Zn deficiency conditions, there are antagonistic effects among Zn, Cu and Mn and synergistic effects between Zn and Fe in the root. Also, in Zn sufficient conditions, there were synergistic effects among all studies micronutrients which include Zn, Fe, Cu, and Mn.展开更多

The participants were a 17-year-old young lady with ASD and intellectual deficit, and a control participant: a preadolescent with ASD but no intellectual deficit (Asperger syndrome). The game is comprised of four phases: greetings, pairing, imitation, and closing. Field educators were involved, playing specific roles: visual or physical inciter. The use of a robot allows for catching the participants’ attention, playing the imitation game for a longer period of time than with a human partner, and preventing the game partner’s negative facial expressions resulting from tiredness, impatience, or boredom. The participants’ behavior was observed in terms of initial approach towards the robot, positioning relative to the robot in terms of distance and orientation, reactions to the robot’s voice or moves, signs of happiness, and imitation attempts. Results suggest a more and more natural approach towards the robot during the sessions, as well as a higher level of social interaction, based on the variations of the parameters listed above. We use these preliminary results to draw the next steps of our research work as well as identify further perspectives, with this aim in mind: improving social interactions with adolescents with ASD and intellectual deficit, allowing for better integration of these people into our societies.展开更多

Fo...The concept of neuroimmune interactions has shown significant advancements over the years. Modern research has revealed many areas of connection between fields, which were previously viewed as distinct disciplines. For example, the nervous system can sense changes in the external environment and convey these changes through molecules and mediators with receptors in the immune system to modulate immune responses. Neuromediators can act on different receptors in the same group of cells, producing antipodal effects. Identification of the anti-inflammatory role of glucocorticoids highlighted that the body functions properly in an integrated manner. These interactions and crosstalk are not unidirectional, as the immune system can also influence various aspects of the nervous system, such as synaptic plasticity and fever. Strict integration of neuro-immuno-endocrine circuits is indispensable for homeostasis. Understanding these circuits and molecules can lead to advances in the understanding of various immune diseases, which will offer promising therapeutic options.展开更多

By irradiating the methane molecule with an elliptically polarized laser pulse polarized in the x–y plane, we observed significant even-order harmonic emission in the z-direction. By analyzing the electron dynamics in the electric field and the multi-orbital effects of the molecule, we revealed that electron recombination near specific atoms in methane is the primary source of highorder harmonic generation in the z-direction. Furthermore, we identified the dominant molecular orbitals responsible for the enhancement of harmonics in this direction and demonstrated the critical role played by multi-orbital effects in this process.展开更多

However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.展开更多

We use these preliminary results to draw the next steps of our research work as well as identify further perspectives, with this aim in mind: improving social interactions with adolescents with ASD and intellectual deficit, allowing for better integration of these people into our societies.
文摘This study investigates the establishment of scientific links between the People's Republic of China(PRC)and the United Kingdom(UK)in the mid-2Oth century,focusing on the early development of China's nuclear industry.Sino-British scientific interactions took place across multiple dimensions,involving various institutions and individuals.Around 1949,UK-trained Chinese nuclear scientists returned to China,bringing advanced technological knowledge and extensive practical experience.The PRC regarded the UK as a crucial gateway to overcoming the technological blockade imposed by the United States(and later the Soviet Union)and sought to establish scientific relations with the UK through semi-official and unofficial channels.Specifically,these connections manifested in the interactions between the Chinese Academy of Sciences(CAS)and the Royal Society of London,the guiding role of the Chinese Charge d'Affaires Office in London in facilitating scientific and technological exchanges,and the technology investigations led by the Ministry of Foreign Trade in the name of trade.Additionally,the Sino-British scientific network extended to the international arena,allowing China to engage in nuclear-related global organizations and events.This study highlights the significant British influence on the early development of China's nuclear industry,revealing the extent of its British influence.It argues that China's urgent need for nuclear science and industrial advancement was a key driver of its scientific engagement withthe UK.
文摘The concept of neuroimmune interactions has shown significant advancements over the years. Modern research has revealed many areas of connection between fields, which were previously viewed as distinct disciplines. For example, the nervous system can sense changes in the external environment and convey these changes through molecules and mediators with receptors in the immune system to modulate immune responses. Neuromediators can act on different receptors in the same group of cells, producing antipodal effects. Identification of the anti-inflammatory role of glucocorticoids highlighted that the body functions properly in an integrated manner. These interactions and crosstalk are not unidirectional, as the immune system can also influence various aspects of the nervous system, such as synaptic plasticity and fever. Strict integration of neuro-immuno-endocrine circuits is indispensable for homeostasis. Understanding these circuits and molecules can lead to advances in the understanding of various immune diseases, which will offer promising therapeutic options.

文摘By simplifying catalyst-product separation and reducing phosphorus waste,heterogeneous hydroformylation offers a more sustainable alternative to homogeneous processes.However,heterogeneous hydroformylation catalysts developed thus far still suffer from the issues of much lower activity and metal leaching,which severely hinder their practical application.Here,we demonstrate that incorporating phosphorus(P)atoms into graphitic carbon nitride(PCN)supports facilitates charge transfer from Rh to the PCN support,thus largely enhancing electronic metal-support interactions(EMSIs).In the styrene hydroformylation reaction,the activity of Rh_(1)/PCN single-atom catalysts(SACs)with varying P contents exhibited a volcano-shaped relationship with P doping,where the Rh_(1)/PCN SAC with optimal P doping showed exceptional activity,approximately 5.8-and 3.3-fold greater than that of the Rh_(1)/g-C_(3)N_(4)SAC without P doping and the industrial homogeneous catalyst HRh(CO)(PPh_(3))_(3),respectively.In addition,the optimal Rh_(1)/PCN SAC catalyst also demonstrated largely enhanced multicycle stability without any visible metal aggregation owing to the increased EMSIs,which sharply differed from the severe metal aggregation of large nanoparticles on the Rh_(1)/g-C_(3)N_(4)SAC.Mechan-istic studies revealed that the enhanced catalytic performance could be attributed to electron-deficient Rh species,which reduced CO adsorption while simultaneously promoting alkene adsorption through increased EMSIs.These findings suggest that tuning EMSIs is an effective way to achieve SACs with high activity and durability.

文摘Background:Triple-negative breast cancer(TNBC),characterized by its lack of traditional hormone receptors and HER2,presents a significant challenge in oncology due to its poor response to conventional therapies.Autophagy is an important process for maintaining cellular homeostasis,and there are currently autophagy biomarkers that play an effective role in the clinical treatment of tumors.In contrast to targeting protein activity,intervention with proteinprotein interaction(PPI)can avoid unrelated crosstalk and regulate the autophagy process with minimal interference pathways.Methods:Here,we employed Naive Bayes,Decision Tree,and k-Nearest Neighbors to elucidate the complex PPI network associated with autophagy in TNBC,aiming to uncover novel therapeutic targets.Meanwhile,the candidate proteins interacting with Beclin 2 were initially screened in MDA-MB-231 cells using Beclin 2 as bait protein by immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry assay,and the interaction relationship was verified by molecular docking and CO-IP experiments after intersection.Colony formation,cellular immunofluorescence,cell scratch and 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide(MTT)tests were used to predict the clinical therapeutic effects of manipulating candidate PPI.Results:By developing three PPI classification models and analyzing over 13,000 datasets,we identified 3733 previously unknown autophagy-related PPIs.Our network analysis revealed the central role of Beclin 2 in autophagy regulation,uncovering its interactions with 39 newly identified proteins.Notably,the CO-IP studies identified the substantial interaction between Beclin 2 and Ubiquilin 1,which was anticipated by our model and discovered in immunoprecipitation-mass spectrometry assay results.Subsequently,in vitro investigations showed that overexpressing Beclin 2 increased Ubiquilin 1,promoted autophagy-dependent cell death,and inhibited proliferation and metastasis in MDA-MB-231 cells.Conclusions:This study not only enhances our understanding of autophagy regulation in TNBC but also identifies the Beclin 2-Ubiquilin 1 axis as a promising target for precision therapy.These findings open new avenues for drug discovery and offer inspiration for more effective treatments for this aggressive cancer subtype.
文摘Nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR)serves as a powerful tool for studying both the structure and dynamics of proteins.The NOE method,alongside residual dipolar;coupling,paramagnetic effects,J-coupling,and other related techniques,has reached a level of maturity that allows for the determination of protein structures.Furthermore,NMR relaxation methods prove to be highly effective in characterizing protein dynamics across various timescales.The properties of protein systems are dictated by intra-and intermo-lecular interactions among atoms,which involve covalent bonds,hydrogen bonds(H-bonds),electrostatic interactions,and van der Waals forces.Multiple NMR approaches have been developed to measure noncovalent interactions,and this paper offers a concise overview of noncovalent interaction measurements using NMR,with a specific emphasis on the advancements accomplished in our laboratory.

文摘We investigate theoretically the effects of chirped laser pulses on high-order harmonic generation(HHG)from solids.We find that the harmonic spectra display redshifts for the driving laser pulses with negative chirp and blueshifts for those with positive chirp,which is due to the change in the instantaneous frequency of the driving laser for different chirped pulses.The analysis of crystal-momentum-resolved(k-resolved)HHG reveals that the frequency shifts are equal for the harmonics generated by different crystal momentum channels.The frequency shifts in the cutoff region are larger than those in the plateau region.With the increase of the absolute value of the chirp parameters,the frequency shifts of HHG become more significant,leading to the shifts from odd-to even-order harmonics.We also demonstrate that the frequency shifts of harmonic spectra are related to the duration of the chirped laser field,but are insensitive to the laser intensity and dephasing time.

文摘Characterized by the quasi-conically symmetric flow field,κshock wave system,and highly three-dimensional separation structures,the swept shock-wave/boundarylayer interaction(SBLI)induced by sharp fins is one of the most important phenomena in supersonic flights.An aerothermoelastic analysis is conducted on the interactions between thin-walled panels and swept SBLIs.The results of rigid wall condition,aeroelastic analysis and aerothermoelastic analysis are compared to highlight the significant influence of fluid-thermal-structural interactions on the structure and the flow field of swept SBLIs.The results show that in the aeroelastic analysis,for the material applied to the panel,although a dynamic structural response is observed,the deformation is minor and has a limited influence on the flow field.However,in the aerothermoelastic analysis,the consideration of aerodynamic heating has a significant impact on the structural response and the flow field.The deformation is an order of magnitude larger than that in the aeroelastic analysis with high vibration frequency and various main frequencies at different locations.As a result,the flow field is no longer quasi-conically symmetric.Theλshock wave system and separation structures are completely disrupted by multiple shock and expansion waves induced by the large structural deformation and become much more complex with highly three-dimensional features.This research highlights the significance of investigations on complex three-dimensional aerothermoelastic problems for supersonic flight vehicles.

文摘Thermal expansion is crucial for various industrial processes and is increasingly the focus of research endeavors aimed at improving material performance.However,it is the continuous advancements in first-principles calculations that have enabled researchers to understand the microscopic origins of thermal expansion.In this study,we propose a coefficient of thermal expansion(CTE)calculation scheme based on self-consistent phonon theory,incorporating the fourth-order anharmonicity.We selected four structures(Si,CaZrF_(6),SrTiO_(3),NaBr)to investigate high-order anharmonicity’s impact on their CTEs,based on bonding types.The results indicate that our method goes beyond the second-order quasi-harmonic approximation and the third-order perturbation theory,aligning closely with experimental data.Furthermore,we observed that an increase in the ionicity of the structures leads to a more pronounced influence of high-order anharmonicity on CTE,with this effect primarily manifesting in variations of the Grüneisen parameter.Our research provides a theoretical foundation for accurately predicting and regulating the thermal expansion behavior of materials.

文摘An efficient and accurate scalar auxiliary variable(SAV)scheme for numerically solving nonlinear parabolic integro-differential equation(PIDE)is developed in this paper.The original equation is first transformed into an equivalent system,and the k-order backward differentiation formula(BDF k)and central difference formula are used to discretize the temporal and spatial derivatives,respectively.Different from the traditional discrete method that adopts full implicit or full explicit for the nonlinear integral terms,the proposed scheme is based on the SAV idea and can be treated semi-implicitly,taking into account both accuracy and effectiveness.Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the high-order convergence(up to fourth-order)of the developed schemes and it is computationally efficient in long-time computations.

文摘We present a comprehensive study on the role of various excited states in high-order harmonic generation of hydrogen atoms driven by a long-wavelength(1500 nm)laser field.By numerically solving the time-dependent Schrodinger equation(TDSE)and performing a time-frequency analysis,we investigate the influence of individual excited states on the harmonic spectrum.Our results reveal that the 2s excited state primarily contributes to the enhancement of high-energy harmonic yields by facilitating long electron trajectories,while the 2p excited state predominantly suppresses harmonic yields in the lower-energy region(20th-50th orders)by altering the contributions of electron trajectories.Our results highlight the critical role of the excited states in the HHG process,even at longer laser wavelengths.

文摘Chemical communication in plant–microbiome and intra-microbiome interactions weaves a complex network,critically shaping ecosystem stability and agricultural productivity.This non-contact interaction is driven by small-molecule signals that orchestrate crosstalk dynamics and beneficial association.Plants leverage these signals to distinguish between pathogens and beneficial microbes,dynamically modulate immune responses,and secrete exudates to recruit a beneficial microbiome,while microbes in turn influence plant nutrient acquisition and stress resilience.Such bidirectional chemical dialogues underpin nutrient cycling,co-evolution,microbiome assembly,and plant resistance.However,knowledge gaps persist regarding validating the key molecules involved in plant–microbe interactions.Interpreting chemical communication requires multi-omics integration to predict key information,genome editing and click chemistry to verify the function of biomolecules,and artificial intelligence(AI)models to improve resolution and accuracy.This review helps advance the understanding of chemical communication and provides theoretical support for agriculture to cope with food insecurity and climate challenges.

文摘We performed real-time and real-space numerical simulations of high-order harmonic generation in the threedimensional structured molecule methane(CH_(4)) using time-dependent density functional theory. By irradiating the methane molecule with an elliptically polarized laser pulse polarized in the x–y plane, we observed significant even-order harmonic emission in the z-direction. By analyzing the electron dynamics in the electric field and the multi-orbital effects of the molecule, we revealed that electron recombination near specific atoms in methane is the primary source of highorder harmonic generation in the z-direction. Furthermore, we identified the dominant molecular orbitals responsible for the enhancement of harmonics in this direction and demonstrated the critical role played by multi-orbital effects in this process.

文摘The high-speed development of space defense technology demands a high state estimation capacity for spacecraft tracking methods.However,reentry flight is accompanied by complex flight environments,which brings to the uncertain,complex,and strongly coupled non-Gaussian detection noise.As a result,there are several intractable considerations on the problem of state estimation tasks corrupted by complex non-Gaussian outliers for non-linear dynamics systems in practical application.To address these issues,a new iterated rational quadratic(RQ)kernel high-order unscented Kalman filtering(IRQHUKF)algorithm via capturing the statistics to break through the limitations of the Gaussian assumption is proposed.Firstly,the characteristic analysis of the RQ kernel is investigated in detail,which is the first attempt to carry out an exploration of the heavy-tailed characteristic and the ability on capturing highorder moments of the RQ kernel.Subsequently,the RQ kernel method is first introduced into the UKF algorithm as an error optimization criterion,termed the iterated RQ kernel-UKF(RQ-UKF)algorithm by derived analytically,which not only retains the high-order moments propagation process but also enhances the approximation capacity in the non-Gaussian noise problem for its ability in capturing highorder moments and heavy-tailed characteristics.Meanwhile,to tackle the limitations of the Gaussian distribution assumption in the linearization process of the non-linear systems,the high-order Sigma Points(SP)as a subsidiary role in propagating the state high-order statistics is devised by the moments matching method to improve the RQ-UKF.Finally,to further improve the flexibility of the IRQ-HUKF algorithm in practical application,an adaptive kernel parameter is derived analytically grounded in the Kullback-Leibler divergence(KLD)method and parametric sensitivity analysis of the RQ kernel.The simulation results demonstrate that the novel IRQ-HUKF algorithm is more robust and outperforms the existing advanced UKF with respect to the kernel method in reentry vehicle tracking scenarios under various noise environments.

文摘Cowl-induced incident Shock Wave/Boundary Layer Interactions (SWBLI) under the influence of gradual expansion waves are frequently observed in supersonic inlets. However, the analysis and prediction of interaction lengths have not been sufficiently investigated. First, this study presents a theoretical scaling analysis and validates it through wind tunnel experiments. It conducts detailed control volume analysis of mass conservation, considering the differences between inviscid and viscous cases. Then, three models for analysing interaction length under gradual expansion waves are derived. Related experiments using schlieren photography are conducted to validate the models in a Mach 2.73 flow. The interaction scales are captured at various relative distances between the shock impingement location and the expansion regions with wedge angles ranging from 12° to 15° and expansion angles of 9°, 12°, and 15°. Three trend lines are plotted based on different expansion angles to depict the relationship between normalised interaction length and normalised interaction strength metric. In addition, the relationship between the coefficients of the trend line and the expansion angles is introduced to predict the interaction length influenced by gradual expansion waves. Finally, the estimation of normalised interaction length is derived for various coefficients within a unified form.
