RESUMO
Ralstonia solanacearum (Rso) causes destructive bacterial wilt across a broad range of host plants by delivering a repertoire of type III effectors. In the present study, we determined that the deletion of the type III effector RipAF1 resulted in increased virulence on Nicotiana benthamiana, Solanum lycopersicum, and Capsicum annuum plants. RipAF1 showed ADP-ribosylation activity in vivo and in vitro. Transient overexpression of RipAF1 suppressed jasmonic acid (JA) signaling and induced salicylic acid (SA) signaling. The ADP-ribosylation activity of RipAF1 was essential for JA and SA signaling mediation. Host fibrillin FBN1 was identified as a RipAF1-interactor that is ADP-ribosylated by RipAF1 directly. Most importantly, the ADP-ribosylation of conserved residues of FBN1 contributes to its localization to the plasma membrane and leads to the suppression of JA signaling and induction of SA signaling. We concluded that RipAF1 mediates antagonistic crosstalk between JA and SA signaling pathways by ADP-ribosylation of FBN1.
RESUMO
Odontogenic infections can spread to the respiratory tract. Despite the known role of Tannerella forsythia as the primary pathogen in periodontitis, the association between T. forsythia infection and risk of pneumonia or lung abscess remains unknown. In this report, we present a case of lung abscess caused by T. forsythia infection. The pathogen was detected by metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of the patient. The clinical characteristics and possible mechanisms of the infection are discussed. T. forsythia is a conditional pathogen that can cause lung abscess in the presence of helper bacteria and reduced host immune status. The course of treatment should be personalized and might be longer than 3 months.
RESUMO
Artificial intelligence has surged forward with the advent of generative models, which rely heavily on stochastic computing architectures enhanced by true random number generators with adjustable sampling probabilities. In this study, we develop spin-orbit torque magnetic tunnel junctions (SOT-MTJs), investigating their sigmoid-style switching probability as a function of the driving voltage. This feature proves to be ideally suited for stochastic computing algorithms such as the restricted Boltzmann machines (RBM) prevalent in pretraining processes. We exploit SOT-MTJs as both stochastic samplers and network nodes for RBMs, enabling the implementation of RBM-based neural networks to achieve recognition tasks for both handwritten and spoken digits. Moreover, we further harness the weights derived from the preceding image and speech training processes to facilitate cross-modal learning from speech to image generation. Our results clearly demonstrate that these SOT-MTJs are promising candidates for the development of hardware accelerators tailored for Boltzmann neural networks and other stochastic computing architectures.
RESUMO
The incorporation of randomness into stochastic computing can provide ample opportunities for applications such as simulated annealing, non-polynomial hard problem solving, and Bayesian neuron networks. In these cases, a considerable number of random numbers with an accurate and configurable probability distribution function (PDF) are indispensable. Preferably, these random numbers are provided at the hardware level to improve speed, efficiency, and parallelism. In this paper, how spin-orbit torque magnetic tunnel junctions (SOT-MTJs) with high barriers are suitable candidates for the desired true random number generators is demonstrated. Not only do these SOT-MTJs perform excellently in speed and endurance, but their randomness can also be conveniently and precisely controlled by a writing voltage, which makes them a well-performed Bernoulli bit. By utilizing these SOT-MTJ-based Bernoulli bits, any PDF, including Gaussian, uniform, exponential, Chi-square, and even arbitrarily defined distributions can be realized. These PDF-configurable true random number generators can then promise to advance the development of stochastic computing and broaden the applications of the SOT-MTJs.
RESUMO
Ultrastrong and deep-strong coupling are two coupling regimes rich in intriguing physical phenomena. Recently, hybrid magnonic systems have emerged as promising candidates for exploring these regimes, owing to their unique advantages in quantum engineering. However, because of the relatively weak coupling between magnons and other quasiparticles, ultrastrong coupling is predominantly realized at cryogenic temperatures, while deep-strong coupling remains to be explored. In our work, we achieve both theoretical and experimental realization of room-temperature ultrastrong magnon-magnon coupling in synthetic antiferromagnets with intrinsic asymmetry of magnetic anisotropy. Unlike most ultrastrong coupling systems, where the counter-rotating coupling strength g2 is strictly equal to the co-rotating coupling strength g1, our systems allow for highly tunable g1 and g2. This high degree of freedom also enables the realization of normalized g1 or g2 larger than 0.5. Particularly, our experimental findings reveal that the maximum observed g1 is nearly identical to the bare frequency, with g1/ω0 = 0.963, indicating a close realization of deep-strong coupling within our hybrid magnonic systems. Our results highlight synthetic antiferromagnets as platforms for exploring unconventional ultrastrong and even deep-strong coupling regimes, facilitating the further exploration of quantum phenomena.
RESUMO
An electrical-controllable antiferromagnet tunnel junction is a key goal in spintronics, holding immense promise for ultradense and ultrastable antiferromagnetic memory with high processing speed for modern information technology. Here, we have advanced toward this goal by achieving an electrical-controllable antiferromagnet-based tunnel junction of Pt/Co/Pt/Co/IrMn/MgO/Pt. The exchange coupling between antiferromagnetic IrMn and Co/Pt perpendicular magnetic multilayers results in the formation of an interfacial exchange bias and exchange spring in IrMn. Encoding information states "0" and "1" is realized through the exchange spring in IrMn, which can be electrically written by spin-orbit torque switching with high cyclability and electrically read by antiferromagnetic tunneling anisotropic magnetoresistance. Combining spin-orbit torque switching of both exchange spring and exchange bias, a 16 Boolean logic operation is successfully demonstrated. With both memory and logic functionalities integrated into our electrically controllable antiferromagnetic-based tunnel junction, we chart the course toward high-performance antiferromagnetic logic-in-memory.
RESUMO
Microwave ablation (MWA) is a key alternative therapy to conventional surgery for the treatment of lung cancer. In addition to eliminating local tumors, MWA may promote antitumor immunological responses, such as abscopal effects in distant lesions. However, the intensity of MWA is limited and the underlying mechanisms are not well-defined. The present study assessed the impact of MWA on immune cell subsets and cytokines in patients with lung cancer. A total of 45 patients with lung cancer who underwent percutaneous lung tumor MWA were enrolled. Peripheral blood samples were collected before and 24 h after MWA and changes in immune cell subsets [lymphocytes, CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ T cells, B cells and natural killer (NK) cells] and serum cytokine levels (IL-1ß, IL-2, IL-4-6, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12p70, IL-17A and F, IL-22, TNF-α, TNF-ß and IFN-γ) were assessed by flow cytometry and ELISA. The number of total lymphocytes, CD4+ T and NK cells in the peripheral blood significantly decreased 24 h after MWA, while number of CD8+ T cells remained stable, leading to a higher proportion of CD8+ T cells. In addition, the serum levels of IL-2, IL-1ß, IL-6, IL-12p70, IL-22, TNF-α and IFN-γ were significantly increased 24 h after MWA, indicating a T helper 1 type immune response. The immune response in patients with advanced stage disease was comparable with patients in the early stage group; however, the number of total lymphocytes and CD3+ T cells significantly decreased and the ratio of CD4/CD8 and IL-2 levels significantly increased. The early immune response after MWA may contribute to systemic antitumor immunity in patients with both early and advanced disease. Thus, MWA may exhibit potential as a local therapy and trigger abscopal effects in distant lesions in patients with lung cancer.
RESUMO
Potato is one of the most important crops worldwide, to feed a fast-growing population. In addition to providing energy, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, potato storage proteins are considered as one of the most valuable sources of non-animal proteins due to their high essential amino acid (EAA) index. However, low tuber protein content and limited knowledge about potato storage proteins restrict their widespread utilization in the food industry. Here, we report a proof-of-concept study, using deep learning-based protein design tools, to characterize the biological and chemical characteristics of patatins, the major potato storage proteins. This knowledge was then employed to design multiple cysteines on the patatin surface to build polymers linked by disulfide bonds, which significantly improved viscidity and nutrient of potato flour dough. Our study shows that deep learning-based protein design strategies are efficient to characterize and to create novel proteins for future food sources.

Superionic halides have aroused interests in field of solid electrolytes such as Li2 ZrCl6 . However, they are still facing challenges including poor air stability which lacks in-depth investigation. Here, moisture instability of Li2 ZrCl6 is demonstrated and decomposition mechanism in air is clearly revealed. Li2 ZrCl6 decomposes into Li2 ZrO3 , ZrOCl2 ·xH2 O and LiCl during initial stage as halides upon moisture exposure. Later, these side products evolve into LiCl(H2 O) and Li6 Zr2 O7 after longer time exposure. More importantly, structure of destroyed halides cannot be recovered after postheating. Later, Indium is doped into Li2 ZrCl6 (9.7 × 10-5 S cm-1 ) to explore its effect on structure and properties. Crystal structure of ball-milled In-doped Li2 ZrCl6 electrolytes is converted from the Li3 YCl6 -like to Li3 InCl6 -like with increasing In content and ionic conductivity can also be enhanced (0.768-1.13) × 10-3 S cm-1 ). More importantly, good air stability of optimal Li2.8 Zr0.2 In0.8 Cl6 is achieved since halide hydrates are formed after air exposure instead of total decomposition and the hydrates can be restored to Li2.8 Zr0.2 In0.8 Cl6 after postheating. Moreover, reheated Li2.8 Zr0.2 In0.8 Cl6 after air exposure is successfully applied in solid-state LiNi0.8 Co0.1 Mn0.1 O2 /halides/Li6 PS5 Cl/Li-In battery. The results in this work can provide insights into air instability of Li2 ZrCl6 and effective strategy to regulate air stability of halides.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Asthma is a chronic airway inflammatory disease characterized by airway inflammation, mucus hypersecretion, airway hyper-reactivity. Sanzi Yangqin Decoction (SZYQD) is widely prescribed for asthma treatment. Its anti-asthma activities have been reported in animal model, but the exact mechanism and targets of SZYQD in asthma treatment have not been fully elucidated. METHODS: A network pharmacological approach was used to predict the active components, targets, and signalling pathways of SZYQD in asthma, including potential target prediction, proteinâprotein interaction (PPI) network construction and analysis, and Gene Ont (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. The active ingredients were identified from the SZYQD, and were molecular docked according to the results of network pharmacology. A mouse model of asthma induced by ovalbumin (OVA) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was constructed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of SZYQD. Furthermore, the effects of SZYQD and its active ingredients were tested in vitro for regulating inflammation and MUC5AC expression (two main pathophysiologic abnormalities of asthma) in macrophages and airway epithelial cells by using Real-time PCR and western blotting. RESULTS: A total of 28 active ingredients and 111 HUB genes were screened in the relevant databases, including three key ingredients (luteolin, ß-carotene, and Sinapine) and nine core target genes (JUN, CTNNB1, IL10, TP53, AKT1, STAT3, TNF, IL6 and EGFR). KEGG and GO analysis indicated that the potential anti-asthmatic mechanisms of SZYQD were related to PI3K-Akt signalling pathway and response to lipopolysaccharide, etc. In the in vivo asthmatic model, our findings demonstrated that SZYQD exerted a protective effect against asthmatic mice induced by OVA and LPS through the inhibition of inflammation and mucus overproduction. Consistently, cell experiments showed that the SZYQD extract or the key active ingredients luteolin significantly decreased lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced IL-6 expression and activation of the NF-κB pathway in macrophages. In addition, SZYQD extract or luteolin inhibited activation of the AKT pathway and expression of MUC5AC induced by EGF in airway epithelial cells. CONCLUSION: The anti-asthmatic mechanism of SZYQD might be associated with inhibiting inflammation and airway mucus hypersecretion by regulating the NF-κB and AKT signalling pathways as predicted by network pharmacology, which provides more evidence for the application of SZYQD in asthma treatment.

Here, we report the complete genome sequence of Proteiniborus sp. MB09-C3 (= BCRC 81405), isolated from the feces of black soldier fly (Hermetia illucens) larvae. The genome of strain MB09-C3 was selected for further species delineation and comparative genomic analysis.
RESUMO
Racetrack memories with magnetic skyrmions have recently been proposed as a promising storage technology. To be appealing, several challenges must still be faced for the deterministic generation of skyrmions, their high-fidelity transfer, and accurate reading. Here, we realize the first proof-of-concept of a 9-bit skyrmion racetrack memory with all-electrical controllable functionalities implemented in the same device. The key ingredient is the generation of a tailored nonuniform distribution of magnetic anisotropy via laser irradiation in order to (i) create a well-defined skyrmion nucleation center, (ii) define the memory cells hosting the information coded as the presence/absence of skyrmions, and (iii) improve the signal-to-noise ratio of anomalous Hall resistance measurements. This work introduces a strategy to unify previous findings and predictions for the development of a generation of racetrack memories with robust control of skyrmion nucleation and position, as well as effective skyrmion electrical detection.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: Femur head necrosis (FHN) is a challenging clinical disease with unclear underlying mechanism, which pathologically is associated with disordered metabolism. However, the disordered metabolism in cancellous bone of FHN was never analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). OBJECTIVES: To elucidate altered metabolism pathways in FHN and identify putative biomarkers for the detection of FHN. METHODS: We recruited 26 patients with femur head necrosis and 22 patients with femur neck fracture in this study. Cancellous bone tissues from the femoral heads were collected after the surgery and were analyzed by GC-MS based untargeted metabolomics approach. The resulting data were analyzed via uni- and multivariate statistical approaches. The changed metabolites were used for the pathway analysis and potential biomarker identification. RESULTS: Thirty-seven metabolites distinctly changed in FHN group were identified. Among them, 32 metabolites were upregulated and 5 were downregulated in FHN. The pathway analysis showed that linoleic acid metabolism were the most relevant to FHN pathology. On the basis of metabolites network, L-lysine, L-glutamine and L-serine were deemed as the junctions of the whole metabolites. Finally, 9,12-octadecadienoic acid, inosine, L-proline and octadecanoic acid were considered as the potential biomarkers of FHN. CONCLUSION: This study provides a new insight into the pathogenesis of FHN and confirms linoleic acid metabolism as the core.

Background: The pathogenesis of COVID-19, including thrombocytopenia, has not been fully clarified. The lungs are a major organ of platelet production and thrombocytopenia induced by severe COVID-19 was proposed. Methods: the change of platelet level was analysed with clinical parameters in 95 hospitalized COVID-19 patients in Wuhan Third Hospital. The production of platelets in the lungs was explored in an ARDS rat model. Results: The level of platelets was negatively correlated with disease severity and was recovered with disease improvement. The non-survivors were accompanied by lower levels of platelet. The odds ratio (OR) of the valley level of the platelet count (PLTlow) was greater than 1, suggesting that PLTlow could be a death exposure factor. The platelet/lymphocyte ratio (PLR) was positively associated with severity of COVID-19, and the platelet/lymphocyte ratio threshold of 248.5 was best correlated with death risk (sensitivity 0.641 and specificity 0.815). To demonstrate the possible biogenesis aberration of platelet in lungs, an LPS-induced ARDS rat model was applied. Lower level of platelet in peripheral and less production of platelet from lungs in ARDS were demonstrated. Though megakaryocyte (MK) number in ARDS lungs is higher than controls, the immature platelet fraction (IPF) in postpulmonary blood is still at the same level as prepulmonary in ARDS rat, indicating that ARDS rats generated fewer platelets in lungs. Conclusion: Our data suggested that COVID-19-induced severe lung inflammation may impair platelet production in the lung. Thrombocytopenia may be mainly caused by platelet consumption for multiorgan thrombosis; however, biogenesis aberration of platelet in the lung induced by diffuse interstitial pulmonary damage cannot be ruled out.
RESUMO
Synthetic antiferromagnet (SAF) is an outstanding system for controlling magnetic coupling via tuning the layer thickness and material composition. Here, we control the interlayer exchange coupling (IEC) in a perpendicularly magnetized SAF Pt/Co/Ir/CoFeB/MgO multilayer, which is tuned by varying the nonmagnetic layer Ir thickness and the magnetic layer Co thickness. And we study the spin-orbit torque (SOT) driven magnetization switching of the SAF. In the SAF with a weak IEC, the SOT-driven switching behavior is similar to that of a single ferromagnet system, which is dominated by the external magnetic field. In contrast, in the SAF with an ultra-strong IEC, the saturation magnetic field is large than 50 kOe, and the SOT-driven switching behavior is decided by the effective magnetic field. The effective field is correlated to the external magnetic field, the IEC field, magnetic moments of CoFeB and Co, and magnetic anisotropy. These results may advance the understanding of SOT switching of perpendicular SAFs and promote the applications of SAFs with low stray fields and lower power in spintronic devices.
RESUMO
RNA interference (RNAi)-mediated control of the notorious pest Henosepilachna vigintioctopunctata is an emerging environment friendly research area. However, the characterization of key target genes in H. vigintioctopunctata is crucial for this. Additionally, assessing the risk of RNAi to nontarget organisms (NTOs) is necessary for environmental safety. In this study, the potential of RNAi technology in controlling H. vigintioctopunctata infestation has been investigated by the oral delivery of double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). The results revealed that the silencing of six genes, including HvABCH1, HvHel25E, HvProsbeta5, HvProsalpha6, HvProsbeta6, and HvSrp54k, was highly lethal to H. vigintioctopunctata. The LC50 values of the dsRNAs used to silence these six genes were found to be less than 13 ng/µL. Moreover, the use of the bacterially expressed dsRNAs caused high mortality in the lab and field populations of H. vigintioctopunctata. Further, administration of HvHel25E and HvSrp54k dsRNAs in the predatory lady beetle Propylea japonica confirmed no transcriptional or organismal levels effects. This risk-assessment result ensured no off-target RNAi effects on the NTOs. Overall, the findings of the study suggested that HvABCH1, HvHel25E, HvProsbeta5, HvProsalpha6, HvProsbeta6, and HvSrp54k can be novel promising molecular targets with high specificity for H. vigintioctopunctata management with negligible effects on the NTOs.
RESUMO
Superionic halides have returned to the spotlight of solid electrolytes because of their satisfactory ionic conductivity, soft texture, and stability toward high-voltage electrode materials. Among them, Li2ZrCl6 has aroused interests since abundant Zr element can reduce the cost of large-scale synthesis. However, the related research is very limited, including the detailed parameters during synthesis and the possible strategies for enhancing ionic conductivity. In this work, we have systematically investigated the effects of synthesis parameters on the structure and ionic conductivity of Li2ZrCl6 during the ball-milling annealing process. It is found that mild heat treatment (100 °C) can largely enhance the ionic conductivity of ball-milled electrolytes by 2-3 times, which has not been previously reported. Such enhancement is mainly attributed to the network-like micromorphology composed of nanorods, nanowires, or nanoballs, which is beneficial for lithium ion migration. Finally, the modified Li2ZrCl6 (4.46 × 10-4 S cm-1 @ RT) is also proved to be applicable in LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2/ Li2ZrCl6/ Li6PS5Cl/Li-In all-solid-state lithium metal batteries (ASSLMBs). It presents high initial charge capacity of 176.4 mAh g-1 and satisfactory cycle stability since a discharge capacity of 90.8 mAh g-1 is maintained after 40 cycles at 0.1 C. The Li2ZrCl6 electrolytes synthesized via the mechanochemical method is promising to be applied in the high-voltage ASSLMBs, and its ionic conductivity can be enhanced by the strategies provided in our work.
RESUMO
Vancomycin remains the mainstay of treatment for methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) pneumonia. This study assessed risk factors for vancomycin failure in 63 patients with MRSA pneumonia through detailed clinical, microbiological, pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic, and genetic analyses of prospective multicenter studies conducted from February 2012 to July 2018. Therapeutic drug monitoring was performed during vancomycin treatment, and the 24-h area under the curve (AUC0-24) was calculated. All baseline strains were collected for MIC determination, heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate S. aureus (hVISA) screening, and biofilm determination. Whole-genome sequencing was performed on the isolates to analyze their molecular typing and virulence and adhesion genes. Clinical signs and symptoms improved in 44 patients (44/63, 69.8%), with vancomycin daily dose (P = 0.045), peak concentration (P = 0.020), and sdrC (P = 0.047) being significant factors. Isolates were eradicated in 51 patients (51/63, 81.0%), with vancomycin daily dose (P = 0.009), cardiovascular disease (P = 0.043), sequence type 5 (ST5; P = 0.017), tst (P = 0.050), and sec gene (P = 0.044) associated with bacteriological failure. Although the AUC0-24/MIC was higher in the groups with bacterial eradication, the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.108). Multivariate analysis showed that no variables were associated with clinical efficacy; ST5 was a risk factor for bacterial persistence (adjusted odds ratio, 4.449; 95% confidence interval, 1.103 to 17.943; P = 0.036). ST5 strains had higher frequencies of the hVISA phenotype, biofilm expression, and presence of some adhesion and virulence genes such as fnbB, tst, and sec than non-ST5 strains. Our study suggests that ST5 is a possible predictor of bacterial persistence in MRSA pneumonia treated with vancomycin. IMPORTANCE Few studies have simultaneously examined the influence of clinical characteristics of patients with pneumonia, the vancomycin pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (PK/PD) index, and the phenotypic and genetic characteristics of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains. We assessed risk factors for vancomycin failure in patients with MRSA pneumonia by analyzing these influences in a prospective multicenter study. Sequence type 5 (ST5) was a possible predictor of bacterial persistence in adult patients with MRSA pneumonia (adjusted odds ratio, 4.449). We found that this may be related to ST5 strains having higher levels of vancomycin heterogeneous resistance, biofilms, and the presence of adhesion and virulence genes such as fnbB, tst, and sec.

Perpendicularly magnetized structures that are switchable using a spin current under field-free conditions can potentially be applied in spin-orbit torque magnetic random-access memory (SOT-MRAM). Several structures have been developed; however, new structures with a simple stack structure and MRAM compatibility are urgently needed. Herein, a typical structure in a perpendicular spin-transfer torque MRAM, the Pt/Co multilayer and its synthetic antiferromagnetic counterpart with perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, was observed to possess an intrinsic interlayer chiral interaction between neighboring magnetic layers, namely, the interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI) effect. Furthermore, using a current parallel to the eigenvector of the interlayer DMI, we switched the perpendicular magnetization of both structures without a magnetic field, owing to the additional symmetry breaking introduced by the interlayer DMI. This SOT switching scheme realized in the Pt/Co multilayer and its synthetic antiferromagnet structure may open a new avenue toward practical perpendicular SOT-MRAM and other SOT devices.
RESUMO
Halide electrolytes are rising stars among inorganic solid-state electrolytes due to their high ionic conductivity and good compatibility with high-voltage electrodes. However, their traditional synthesis methods including ball-milling annealing are usually energy-intensive and time-consuming compared with liquid-mediated routes. What's more, the only method in aqueous solution is not perfect considering detrimental effect of trace water for battery performances. Here, we propose a novel ethanol-mediated synthesis route for superionic Li3InCl6 electrolyte via energy-friendly dissolution and post-treatment. The organics in ethanol-mediated precursor disappear in form of light gas during post-treatment. And Li3InCl6 with best thermal stability and ionic conductivity (0.79 mS cm-1, 20 °C) can be successfully prepared after postheating for 3 h at 200 °C. Besides, it is also found that the ionic conductivity of Li3InCl6 is positively correlated with peak intensity ratio of (131) plane/(001) plane since crystal plane and preferred orientation can directly affect polyhedrons through which lithium ions migrate in crystalline conductors. The assembled LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2/Li3InCl6/Li10GeP2S12/Li-In cell presents high initial charge capacity of 174.8 mAh g-1 at 0.05 C and a good rate performance of 122.9 mAh g-1 at 1 C. Especially, the retention rate of charge capacity can reach 94.8% after 200 cycles. The ethanol-mediated synthesized Li3InCl6 is a novel promising electrolyte which can be coupled with high-voltage cathode for the application of all-solid-state lithium-metal batteries.
