Efficient solar-driven freshwater generation through an inner hierarchical porous metal-carbon layer bridging synergistic photothermal evaporation and adsorption photodegradation.

Solar-driven interfacial evaporation has emerged as a promising avenue for clean water production, leveraging solar energy to extract water vapor from salty and polluted water sources. However, a critical challenge remains, during the photothermal evaporation process, organic pollutants and small water-soluble molecules can transfer into distilled steam, degrading the purity of the collected water. Herein, we develop a multifunctional clean water generation system that integrates photothermal conversion, adsorptive filtration and subsequent photocatalytic purification within a unified platform. This system features an inner hierarchical porous metal-carbon layer derived from ZIF-67 carbonization, seamlessly bridging a wood carbon scaffold and BiOBr nanosheets (BiOBr@ZCW) to smoothly facilitate synergistic actions between photothermal evaporation and adsorption-photodegradation processes. This BiOBr@ZCW configuration not only minimizes thermal dissipation, facilitating a high evaporation rate of 1.67 kg m-2 h-1 and an efficiency of 85% under standard solar irradiation but also enhances the photocatalytic degradation of the rhodamine B organic pollutant with a remarkable 98.43% degradation rate within just 20 minutes. This integrated system offers a robust solution to the challenges of water purification by ensuring both high efficiency in solar steam generation and effective pollutant degradation.

Time-restricted feeding relieves high temperature-induced impairment on meat quality by activating the Nrf2/HO-1 pathway, modification of muscle fiber composition, and enriching the polyunsaturated fatty acids in pigs.

To assess the effects of a time-restricted feeding (TRF) regimen on meat quality of pigs exposed to high ambient temperature, a two-month feeding and heat treatment (HT) trial was conducted using a 2 × 2 factorial design. A total of 24 growing pigs (11.0 ± 1.9 kg) were randomly divided into four groups: thermal neutral group (NT, 24 ± 3 °C), HT group (exposed to a high temperature at 35 ± 2 °C from 11:00 to 15:00), TRF group and HT + TRF group (HT and TRF co-treatment group, n = 6 for each group). Pigs in TRF groups got access to feed within 5 h from 9:00 to14:00, while the others were fed at 6:00, 11:30, and 16:00. All pigs received the same diet during the trail. The results showed that HT increased the drip loss, shear force, lightness, and malondialdehyde production in Longissimus thoracis et lumborum (LTL) muscle. TRF reversely reduced the shear force and drip loss, accompanied by decreased intramuscular fat and increased moisture content. Enhanced fiber transformation from type 1 to type 2b and down-regulated expression of muscle growth-related genes were observed by HT, while TRF suppressed the fiber transformation and expression of muscle atrophy-related genes. Furthermore, TRF restored the diminished protein expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 in LTL muscle by chronic HT. Accumulation of HSP70 in muscle of HT group was reduced by treatment of TRF. HT declined the expression of vital genes involved in fatty acids poly-desaturation and the proportion of (polyunsaturated fatty acids) PUFAs, mainly omega-6 in LTL muscle, while TRF group promoted the expression of poly-desaturation pathway and displayed the highest proportion of PUFAs. These results demonstrated that TRF relieved the chronic high temperature affected meat quality by the restored expression of Nrf2/HO-1 anti-oxidative cascade, modified muscle fiber composition, and enriched PUFAs in LTL muscle.

The effect of SGLT2 inhibition on brain-related phenotypes and aging: a drug target Mendelian randomization study.

INTRODUCTION: Observational study suggested SGLT2 inhibitors might promote healthy aging. However, whether brain-related phenotypes mediate this association. We applied Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the effect of SGLT2 inhibition on chronological, biological age and cognition and explore the mediation effects of brain imaging-derived phenotypes (IDPs). METHODS: We selected genetic variants associated with both expression levels of SLC5A2 (GTEx and eQTLGen data; N=129 to 31,684) and HbA1c levels (UK Biobank; N=344,182) and used them to proxy the effect of SGLT2 inhibition. Aging related outcomes, including parental longevity (N=389,166) and epigenetic clocks (N=34,710), and cognitive phenotypes, including cognitive function (N=300,486) and intelligence (N= 269,867) were derived from genome-wide association studies. Two-step MR were conducted to explore the associations between SGLT2 inhibition, IDPs, and aging outcomes, cognition. RESULTS: SGLT2 inhibition was associated with longer father's attained age (years of life increase per SD (6.75 mmol/mol) reduction in HbA1c levels = 6.21, 95%CI 1.95 to 11.15), better cognitive function (beta = 0.17, 95%CI 0.03 to 0.31) and higher intelligence (beta = 0.47, 95%CI 0.19 to 0.75). Two-step MR identified two IDPs as mediators linking SGLT2 inhibition with chronological age (total proportion of mediation = 22.6%), where four and five IDPs were mediators for SGLT2 inhibition on cognitive function and intelligence respectively (total proportion of mediation = 61.6% and 68.6% respectively). CONCLUSIONS: Our study supported that SGLT2 inhibition increases father's attained age, cognitive function and intelligence, which was mediated through brain images of different brain regions. Future studies are needed to investigate whether similar effect could be observed for users of SGLT2 inhibitors.

Strong PD-L1 affect clinical outcomes in advanced NSCLC treated with third-generation EGFR-TKIs.

Background: In first/second generation EGFR-TKIs, strong PD-L1 expression contributes to primary resistance, significantly affecting patient prognosis. The relationship between PD-L1 expression levels and third-generation TKIs remains unclear.Methods: This study analyzed advanced NSCLC who received third-generation EGFR-TKIs as first-line systemic therapy from March 2019 to June 2022. The EGFR and PD-L1 status of the patients was also assessed.Results: Overall, 150 patients were included in this study. PD-L1 expression was negative (PD-L1 tumor proportion score <1%) in 89 cases, weak (1-49%) in 42 cases, and strong (≥50%) in 19 cases. mPFS for patients with negative, weak and strong PD-L1 expressions was 23.60, 26.12 and 16.60 months, respectively. The mPFS for strong PD-L1 expression was significantly shorter than that for with weak PD-L1 expression but was not associated with negativity. The same conclusions were shown in subgroup analyses of mutation types and TKI kinds. In addition, Relative to PD-L1-negative patients, resistance to TKIs may be associated with early progression for patients with strong PD-L1 expression.Conclusion: PD-L1 expression in tumor cells influenced the clinical outcomes of patients with advanced NSCLC treated with third-generation EGFR-TKIs. Stronger PD-L1 expression in TKIs-treated patients with advanced first-line EGFR-mutated NSCLC was associated with worse PFS.

The effect of SGLT2 inhibition on prostate cancer: Mendelian randomization and observational analysis using electronic healthcare and cohort data.

We evaluated the effect of sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibition on prostate cancer by evidence triangulation. Using Mendelian randomization, we found that genetically proxied SGLT2 inhibition reduced the risk of overall (odds ratio = 0.56, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.38 to 0.82; 79,148 prostate cancer cases and 61,106 controls), advanced, and early-onset prostate cancer. Using electronic healthcare data (nSGLT2i = 24,155; nDPP4i = 24,155), we found that the use of SGLT2 inhibitors was associated with a 23% reduced risk of prostate cancer (hazard ratio = 0.77, 95% CI = 0.61 to 0.99) in men with diabetes. Using data from two prospective cohorts (n4C = 57,779; nUK_Biobank = 165,430), we found little evidence to support the association of HbA1c with prostate cancer, implying a non-glycemic effect of SGLT2 inhibition on prostate cancer. In summary, this study provides multiple layers of evidence to support the beneficial effect of SGLT2 inhibition on reducing prostate cancer risk. Future trials are warranted to investigate whether SGLT2 inhibitors can be recommended for prostate cancer prevention.

Illuminating the role of powder carrier materials in shaping sludge aggregation in wastewater treatment: Insights from extended operation performance to microbial response mechanism.

This study uncovered the response of novel micro-granule wastewater treatment technology to different powder carrier materials. Characteristics and distinctions among different systems were assessed based on process performance, sludge aggregation capacity, and microbial metabolism. Zeolite carrier system exhibited remarkable nitrogen removal efficiency of 89.6 ± 0.9 %, while diatomite carriers, in conjunction with intermittent aeration, enhanced simultaneous nitrification and denitrification from 2.6 % to 27.1 %. Iron-based carriers demonstrated efficient phosphorus removal (94.7 ± 1.2 %) through both chemical and microbial pathways. Specific surface area, pore structure and biocompatibility of powder carriers determined the formation and size of micro-granules. Tryptophan-like substances, C-(C/H), and Npr in extracellular polymeric substances strongly correlated with sludge hydrophobicity and granulation. Significant enrichment in norank_Comamonadaceae and Nitrosomonas in zeolite powder carrier system promoted partial nitrification and endogenous denitrification. Differences in metabolic pathways elucidated the up-regulation of amino acid synthesis, energy metabolism, and membrane transport as potential mechanisms driving micro-granule formation and efficient treatment performance.

Systematic Engineering to Enhance ß-Myrcene Production in Yeast.

ß-Myrcene is an important monoterpene compound widely used in the fragrance, agricultural, and food industries. The microbial production of ß-myrcene conforms to the trend of green biological manufacturing, which has great potential for development. The poor catalytic activity of ß-myrcene synthase (MS) and the insufficient supply of precursors are considered to be the bottlenecks of ß-myrcene production. Here, source screening, subcellular localization, enzyme fusion, and precursor-enhancing strategies were integrated for ß-myrcene biosynthesis with Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The ß-myrcene titer gradually increased by 218-fold (up to 63.59 mg/L) compared to that of the initial titer of the shake flask. Moreover, the titer reached 66.82 mg/L after the addition of antioxidants (1 mM glutathione, GSH, and 1% butylated hydroxytoluene, BHT). Ultimately, 142.64 mg/L ß-myrcene in S. cerevisiae was achieved in 5.0 L of fed-batch fermentation under a carbon restriction strategy, which was the highest reported titer in yeast thus far. This study not only established a platform for ß-myrcene production but also provided a reference for the efficient biosynthesis of other monoterpene compounds.

Enhancing proton-coupled electron transfer drives efficient methanogenesis in anaerobic digestion.

The enhancement of electron or proton transfer between syntrophic microbes has been widely recognised as a means for improving methane generation. However, the uncoupled supplementation of electrons and protons in multiphase anaerobic environment hinders the balanced uptake of electrons and protons in the cytoplasm of methanogens, limiting methanogenesis efficiency. Herein, the cooperative effect of a proton-conductive material (PM) and an electron-conductive material (EM) in enhancing proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET) and driving efficient methanogenesis in anaerobic digestion was investigated. The cooperation of the PM and EM significantly increased methane production and the maximum methane generation rate by 78.9 % and 103.5 %, respectively, indicating enhanced methanogenesis efficiency. Analysis of the physicochemical properties, biochemical components, and microbial dynamics revealed that the cooperation of the PM and EM improved the metabolism of syntrophic microbes, which was critically dependent on electron and proton transfer. This enhancement was primarily due to the improvement in PCET, as mainly supported by hydrogen/deuterium kinetic isotope effect measurements, multi-omics integration analyses and reaction thermodynamics and kinetics analyses. Our findings suggest that the PCET enhancement stimulated efficient membrane-bound enzymatic reactions related to electron-driven proton translocation and facilitated electron and proton supply for CO2 reduction to realise highly efficient methane generation. These findings are expected to provide a new insight into effective electron and proton coupling transfer for methanogenic metabolism in multiphase anaerobic environments.

Insights into the interplay between gut microbiota and lipid metabolism in the obesity management of canines and felines.

Obesity is a prevalent chronic disease that has significant negative impacts on humans and our companion animals, including dogs and cats. Obesity occurs with multiple comorbidities, such as diabetes, hypertension, heart disease and osteoarthritis in dogs and cats. A direct link between lipid metabolism dysregulation and obesity-associated diseases has been implicated. However, the understanding of such pathophysiology in companion animals is limited. This review aims to address the role of lipid metabolism in various metabolic disorders associated with obesity, emphasizing the involvement of the gut microbiota. Furthermore, we also discuss the management of obesity, including approaches like nutritional interventions, thus providing novel insights into obesity prevention and treatment for canines and felines.

Extracellular-proton-transfer driving high energy-conserving methanogenesis in anaerobic digestion.

Anaerobic digestion (AD) is a promising technology to realize the conversion from organic matters to methane, which is highly mediated by syntrophic microbial community via mutualistic interactions. However, small energy available in methanogenic conversion usually limits the metabolic activity. To adapt such energy-limited environment, efficient energy conservation is critical to support active physiological functions of anaerobic consortia for methanogenic metabolism. In this study, the contribution of extracellular proton transfer (EPT) enhancement to achieving energy-conserving methanogenesis in AD was explored. Proton-conductive medium (PCM) was applied to construct efficient proton transport pathway, and a large number of protons from extracellular water were found available to upregulate methanogenesis in AD, as indicated by the increase in the content of 2H (D) in methane molecules (over 40.7%), among which CO2-reduction-to-CH4 was effectively enhanced. The increases of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) concentration (+54.1%) and gene expression activities related to ATPase (+100.0%) and proton pump (+580.1%) revealed that enhanced EPT by PCM promoted transmembrane proton motive force generation to facilitate ATP synthesis. Based on genome-centric metatranscriptomic analyses, MAG14, MAG63 and MAG61 with high energy conservation activity displayed most pronounced positive response to the EPT enhancement. In these core MAGs, the metabolic pathway reconstruction and the key genes activity identification further proved that EPT enhancement-driven efficient ATP synthesis stimulated the cross-feeding of carbon and proton/electron to facilitate microbial mutualism, thereby resulting in the high energy-conserving methanogenesis. Overall, our work provides new insights into how EPT enhancement drives high energy-conserving methanogenesis, expanding our understanding of the ecological role of EPT in AD.

Ooceraeahainingensis sp. nov.: A new Chinese Ooceraea (Hymenoptera, Formicidae, Dorylinae) species with a dealate queen, closely allied to the queenless clonal raider ant O.biroi.

The clonal raider ant, Ooceraeabiroi, is a queenless species that reproduces asexually, and these traits make it an attractive model system for laboratory research. However, it is unclear where on the ant phylogeny these traits evolved, partly because few closely related species have been described and studied. Here, we describe a new raider ant species, Ooceraeahainingensis sp. nov., from Zhejiang, China. This species is closely related to O.biroi but can be distinguished by the following features: 1) workers of O.hainingensis sp. nov. have an obvious promesonotal suture and a metanotal groove, whereas these characters are ambiguous in O.biroi; and 2) the subpetiolar process of O.hainingensis is prominent and anteroventrally directed like a thumb with sublinear posteroventral margin, while in O.biroi, it is anteroventrally directed but slightly backward-bent. Molecular phylogenetic analyses confirm that O.hainingensis is genetically distinct from O.biroi. Importantly, unlike O.biroi, O.hainingensis has a queen caste with wings and well-developed eyes. This suggests that the loss of the queen caste and transition to asexual reproduction by workers is specific to O.biroi and occurred after that species diverged from closely related congeneric species.

Screening, identification, and characterization of molds for brewing rice wine: Scale-up production in a bioreactor.

Rice wine, well known for its unique flavor, rich nutritional value, and health benefits, has potential for extensive market development. Rhizopus and Aspergillus are among several microorganisms used in rice wine brewing and are crucial for determining rice wine quality. The strains were isolated via Rose Bengal and starch as a combined separation medium, followed by oenological property and sensory evaluation screening. The strain exhibiting the best performance can be screened using the traditional rice wine Qu. The strains YM-8, YM-10, and YM-16, which exhibited strong saccharification and fermentation performance along with good flavor and taste, were obtained from traditional rice wine Qu. Based on ITS genetic sequence analysis, the YM-8, YM-10, and YM-16 strains were identified as Rhizopus microsporus, Rhizopus arrhizus, and Aspergillus oryzae. The optimum growth temperature of each of the three strains was 30°C, 32°C, and 30°C, and the optimum initial pH was 6.0, 6.5, and 6.5, respectively. The activities of α-amylase, glucoamylase, and protease of YM-16 were highest at 220.23±1.88, 1,269.04±30.32, and 175.16±1.81 U/g, respectively. The amino acid content of rice wine fermented in a 20-L bioreactor with the three mold strains was higher than that of the control group, except for arginine, which was significantly lower than that of the control group. The total amino acid content and the total content of each type of amino acid were ranked as YM-16 > YM-8 > YM-10 > control group, and the amino acid content varied greatly among the strains. The control group had a higher content, whereas YM-8 and YM-16 had lower contents of volatile aroma components than the control group and had the basic flavor substances needed for rice wine, which is conducive to the formation of rice wine aroma. This selected strain, YM-16, has strong saccharification and fermentation ability, is a rich enzyme system, and improves the flavor of rice wine, thereby demonstrating its suitability as a production strain for brewing.

The toxins' effects are extensive, potentially harming the immune system, liver, kidneys, and skin, and are associated with serious conditions such as cancer, hormonal changes, genetic mutations, bleeding, birth defects, and neurological issues. Natural products have shown potential anticancer, anti-tumor, antioxidant, immunomodulatory, and antitoxic properties. Discussion: The review underscores the emerging therapeutic strategy of targeting gut microbial modulation. It identifies knowledge gaps and suggests future research directions to deepen our understanding of natural products' role in gut-x axis health and to mitigate the global health impact of mycotoxin-induced diseases.

A Mysterious Asian Firefly Genus, Oculogryphus Jeng, Engel & Yang (Coleoptera, Lampyridae): The First Complete Mitochondrial Genome and Its Phylogenetic Implications.

The firefly genus Oculogryphus Jeng, Engel & Yang, 2007 is a rare-species group endemic to Asia. Since its establishment, its position has been controversial but never rigorously tested. To address this perplexing issue, we are the first to present the complete mitochondrial sequence of Oculogryphus, using the material of O. chenghoiyanae Yiu & Jeng, 2018 determined through a comprehensive morphological identification. Our analyses demonstrate that its mitogenome exhibits similar characteristics to that of Stenocladius, including a rearranged gene order between trnC and trnW, and a long intergenic spacer (702 bp) between the two rearranged genes, within which six remnants (29 bp) of trnW were identified. Further, we incorporated this sequence into phylogenetic analyses of Lampyridae based on different molecular markers and datasets using ML and BI analyses. The results consistently place Oculogryphus within the same clade as Stenocladius in all topologies, and the gene rearrangement is a synapomorphy for this clade. It suggests that Oculogryphus should be classified together with Stenocladius in the subfamily Ototretinae at the moment. This study provides molecular evidence confirming the close relationship between Oculogryphus and Stenocladius and discovers a new phylogenetic marker helpful in clarifying the monophyly of Ototretinae, which also sheds a new light on firefly evolution.

Improvement of insulin sensitivity by dietary fiber consumption during late pregnant sows is associated with gut microbiota regulation of tryptophan metabolism.

BACKGROUND: Dietary fiber (DF) consumption was reported to improve insulin sensitivity, change the tryptophan metabolism, and alter the gut microbiota. Herein, this study aimed to investigate the effects of DF consumption on insulin sensitivity, tryptophan metabolism, and gut microbiota composition in sows during late pregnancy, and explore the relationship between tryptophan metabolites and insulin sensitivity regulated by DF supplementation. RESULTS: Twelve sows were randomly assigned to two dietary treatment groups (six/group): the low-fiber (LF) group, which was fed a basal diet, and the high-fiber (HF) group, which was fed the basal diet supplemented with 22.60 g/kg inulin and 181.60 g/kg cellulose. During late pregnancy, meal test, glucose tolerance test, and insulin challenge test were used to investigate the insulin sensitivity of sows, using the percutaneous brachiocephalic vein catheterization technique. High DF consumption resulted in improved insulin sensitivity, especially during the second and third trimesters, and promoted serotonin production from tryptophan. Additionally, plasma serotonin concentration was positively correlated with the insulin sensitivity index during late pregnancy. Moreover, DF consumption elevated fecal short-chain fatty acid (SCFA) concentrations, altered fecal microbial diversity, and increased the abundances of Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group, Alloprevotella, Parabacteroides, Roseburia, and Sphaerochaeta, which were positively correlated to plasma serotonin concentration. CONCLUSIONS: DF consumption improved insulin sensitivity during late pregnancy in sows, which improved microbial diversity in fecal samples and increased fecal SCFA concentrations, resulting in a positive correlation with plasma serotonin level.

Superionic Conduction in K3SbS4 Enabled by Cl-Modified Anion Lattice.

All-solid-state potassium batteries emerge as promising alternatives to lithium batteries, leveraging their high natural abundance and cost-effectiveness. Developing potassium solid electrolytes (SEs) with high room-temperature ionic conductivity is critical for realizing efficient potassium batteries. In this study, we present the synthesis of K2.98Sb0.91S3.53Cl0.47, showcasing a room-temperature ionic conductivity of 0.32 mS/cm and a low activation energy of 0.26 eV. This represents an increase of over two orders of magnitude compared to the parent compound K3SbS4, marking the highest reported ionic conductivity for non-oxide potassium SEs. Solid-state 39K magic-angle-spinning nuclear magnetic resonance on K2.98Sb0.91S3.53Cl0.47 reveals an increased population of mobile K+ ions with fast dynamics. Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations further confirm a delocalized K+ density and significantly enhanced K+ diffusion. This work demonstrates diversification of the anion sublattice as an effective approach to enhance ion transport and highlights K2.98Sb0.91S3.53Cl0.47 as a promising SE for all-solid-state potassium batteries.
