| 1 | New eolian red clay sequence on the western Chinese Loess Plateau linked to onset of Asian desertification about 25 Ma ago显示文摘The expansion of inland Asia deserts has considerably influenced the environmental, social and economic activities in Asia. Aridification of inland Asia, especially timing of the initiation of Asian desertification, is a contentious topic in paleoclimatology. Late Cenozoic eolian loess-red clay sequences on the Chinese Loess Plateau, which possess abundant paleoclimatic and paleo-environmental information, can be regarded as an indicator of inland Asia desertification. Here we present a detailed magnetostratigraphic investigation of a new red clay sequence about 654 m in Zhuanglang located at the western Chinese Loess Plateau. Sedimentological, geochemical, mineralogical, and quartz morphological lines of evidence show that the red clay is of eolian origin. Magnetostratigraphic correlations indicate that this core sequence spans from 25.6 to 4.8 Ma, and typical eolian red clay appears as early as 25 Ma. This extends the lower limit of the red clay on the Chinese Loess Plateau from the previously thought early Miocene back into the late Oligocene. This new red clay record further implies that the inland Asia desertification was initiated at least by the late Oligocene. This sequence provides a unique high-resolution geological record for understanding the inland Asia desertification process since the late Oligocene. | QIANG XiaoKe AN ZhiSheng SONG YouGui CHANG Hong SUN YouBin LIU WeiGuo AO Hong DONG JiBao FU ChaoFeng WU Feng LU FengYan CAI YanJun ZHOU WeiJian CAO JunJi XU XinWen AI Li | 2011 | Science China Earth Sciences2011,54,1: | 73 |
| 2 | Late Miocene Red River submarine fan,northwestern South China Sea显示文摘A huge submarine fan is discovered through the research of the seismic and borehole data in the binding site of Yinggehai basin and Qiongdongnan basin in northwestern South China Sea.The fan,mainly formed during Late Miocene (Huangliu period) has an area over 10000 km 2 and maximum thickness of over 2000 m.It is characterized by a wedge-shaped oblique progradation configuration on the dip profile and a hummocky bidirectional progradation configuration on the strike profile.The core and Logging data from the well YC35-1-2 located in the front side of the fan indicate that sandy gravity flow deposits are predominant in lower Huangliu Formation and change to interbeds of sand and mud in upper Huangliu Formation.The fan is interpreted as a sand/mud-rich submarine fan in combination with the bathyal geological background of Huangliu period.A preliminary analysis of provenance indicates that neither the Guiren Uplift in the west nor the Hainan Uplift in the north can serve as the major provenance for the submarine fan.The provenance is considered to be from the Red River,based on the sedimentary facies study of the Huangliu Formation in Yinggehai basin.The fan is thus named as 'Red River submarine fan'.The Red River depositional system consists of the Red River submarine fan,the Red River delta,and associated submarine canyons.The discovery of the Red River submarine fan provides important information for the research of the uplift of Tibetan Plateau and the evolvement of Red River Fault Zone.Furthermore,it also points out a new direction for the deepwater hydrocarbon exploration in the northern South China Sea. | WANG YingMin XU Qiang LI Dong HAN JianHui LU Ming WANG YongFeng LI WeiGuo WANG HaiRong | 2011 | Chinese Science Bulletin2011,56,14: | 28 |
| 3 | Carbon isotopic composition of modern soil and paleosol as a response to vegetation change on the Chinese Loess Plateau显示文摘The relationship between the carbon isotopic composition of paleosols and paleovegetation on the Loess Plateau is still unclear. One of the main reasons is that we are short of knowledge about the characteristics of the carbon isotopic composition of modern soil in this area. A preliminary investigation of the carbon isotopic compositions of the modern soil and the loess/paleosol sequence on the Loess Plateau shows that the carbon isotopic composition of modern soil is consistent with the distribution of modern plants on the Loess Plateau, where the ecosystem is dominated by a mixture of C4 and C3 plants. Comparing theδ13C values of modern soil and loess-paleosol sequences from the Xunyi profile, we conclude that C3 plants dominated the landscape during loess sediment stages, while C4 plants expanded during paleosol stages. | LIU Weiguo NING Youfeng AN Zhisheng WU Zhenghai LU Huayu CAO Yunning | 2005 | Science China Earth Sciences2005,48,1: | 24 |
| 4 | Response of tree-ring width to rainfall gradient along the Tianshan Mountains of northwestern China显示文摘By comparing the long-term tree-ring growths at various geographic scales, we can make clear the effects of environmental variations on tree growth, and get an understanding of the responses of forest ecosystems to the possible changes in global and regional climate. Radial tree-ring growth of Picea schrenkiana and its relationship to air temperature and precipitation were investigated across longi- tude transects on the north slopes of the Tianshan Mountains in northwestern China. Tree-ring samples were collected and residual chronologies were developed for three different regions along a gradient of decreasing precipitation from west to east. Response-function analysis was conducted to quantify the relationships between tree-ring chronologies and climate variables, such as monthly mean temperature and monthly precipitation from 1961 to 1998, using the PRECON software program. The statistical characteristics of the chronologies showed that the three chronologies constructed in this study con- tained significant environmental signals and were well suitable to reveal the impacts of climatic change on tree growth and forest productivity. Annual ring-width variations were similar among the three sites, but the variability was greatest in the east. This research showed that the growth trends of Picea schrenkiana in the Tianshan Mountains have not followed a uniform pattern. Response-function analy- sis indicated that there were significant correlations between tree growth and climatic factors in all the three regions, among which precipitation was the principal. With decreasing precipitation, the response of tree-ring widths to increasing temperature changed from a positive to a negative correlation. As for precipitation, the positive relationship to tree-ring width always dominates. It could be expected that with increased temperature and decreased precipitation, the importance of precipitation to tree growth would increase, and the response of tree growth to environmental changes would also increase. This study emphasizes the importance of regional-scale investigations into the biosphere-climate interac- tions. The results of this research indicated a substantial increment of tree-ring radial growth as a re- sult of warmer and wetter climate in the eastern regions. However, climate change will have less effect on forest growth and primary production in the western regions. | SANG WeiGuo WANG YunXia SU HongXin LU ZhaoHua | 2007 | Chinese Science Bulletin2007,52,21: | 12 |
| 5 | Uncertainty analysis of hydrological model parameters based on the bootstrap method:A case study of the SWAT model applied to the Dongliao River Watershed,Jilin Province,Northeastern China显示文摘As an important tool for the description and analysis of hydrological processes,the watershed hydrological model has been increasingly applied to watershed hydrological simulations and water resource management.However,in most cases,model parameters are only determined in a calibration scheme which fits the modeled data to observations,thus significant uncertainties exist in the model parameters.How to quantitatively evaluate the uncertainties in model parameters and the resulting uncertainty impacts on model simulations has always been a question which has attracted much attention.In this study,two methods based on the bootstrap method(specifically,the model-based bootstrap and block bootstrap)are used to analyze the parameter uncertainties in the case of the SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)model applied to a hydrological simulation of the Dongliao River Watershed.Then,the uncertainty ranges of five sensitivity parameters are obtained.The calculated variation coefficients and the variable parameter contributions show that,among the five parameters,ESCO and CN2 have relatively high uncertainties:the variation coefficients and contribution rates are 23.98 and 70%,14.43 and 18%,respectively.The three remaining parameters have relatively low uncertainties.We compare the two uncertainty ranges of parameters acquired by the two bootstrap methods,and find that the uncertainty ranges of parameters acquired by the block bootstrap are narrower than those acquired by the model-based bootstrap.Further analysis of the effects of parameter uncertainties on the model simulation reveals that the parameter uncertainties have great impacts on results of the model simulation,and in the model calibration stage 60%70%of runoff observations were within the corresponding 95%confidence interval.The uncertainty in the model simulation during the flood season(i.e.the wet period)is relatively higher than that during the dry season. | ZHANG Zheng LU WenXi CHU HaiBo CHENG WeiGuo ZHAO Ying | 2014 | Science China(Technological Sciences)2014,57,1: | 9 |
| 6 | Lotus seed skin proanthocyanidin extract exhibits potent antioxidant property via activation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway显示文摘Lotus seed is well known as traditional food and medicine,but its skin is usually discarded.Recent studies have shown that lotus seed skin contains a high concentration of proanthocyanidins that have multi-functions,such as antioxidation,anti-inflammation,and anti-cancer effects.In the present study,we aimed to isolate and purify the proanthocyanidins from lotus seed skin by acetone extraction and rotary evaporation,identify their chemical structures by HPLC-MS-MS and NMR,and further investigate the antioxidant properties of the extract purified by macroporous resin (PMR) from lotus seed skin both in vitro and in vivo.The results showed that PMR mainly contained oligomeric proanthocyanidins,especially dimeric procyanidin B1 (PB1),procyanidin B2 and procyanidin B4.Although it had limited ability to directly scavenge radicals in vitro,PMR could significantly enhance the expressions of antioxidant proteins via activation of nuclear factory-related factor 2 (Nrf2)-antioxidant response element (ARE) pathway in HepG2 cells.Molecular data revealed that PB1,a major component in PMR,stabilized Nrf2 by inhibiting the ubiquitination of Nrf2,which led to subsequent activation of the Nrf2-ARE pathway,including the enhancements of Nrf2 nuclear translocation,Nrf2-ARE binding and ARE transcriptional activity.Moreover,the in vivo results in high fat diet-induced mice further verified the powerful antioxidant property of PMR.These results revealed that lotus seed skin is a promising resource for functional food development. | Tao Li Qili Li Weiguo Wu Yong Li De-xing Hou Hua Xu Baodong Zheng Shaoxiao Zeng Yang Shan Xiangyang Lu Fangming Deng Si Qin | 2019 | Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica2019,51,1: | 8 |
| 7 | Verification and fine-mapping of QTLs conferring days to flowering in soybean using residual heterozygous lines显示文摘The results of QTL mapping based on a primary mapping population should be further verified and refined for its real utilization in marker-assisted selection or map-based cloning.The primary mapping population contains 114 BC1F1 plants of the backcross between Essex (maturity group V,MG V) as the donor parent and ZDD2315 (MG II) as the recurrent parent.In this study,a genetic linkage map with 250 SSR markers spanning a total length of 2963.5 cM on 25 linkage groups (LG) was constructed using software MAPMAKER3.0.Six kinds of genetic statistical models of 4 softwares,i.e.WinQTL Cartographer Version 2.5,IciMapping Version 2.0,MapQTL Version 5.0 and QTLnetwork Version 2.0,were used to map QTLs conferring days to flowering of the BC1F3 lines.Nine QTLs were mapped on 6 different linkage groups (LG).Of those,6 QTLs were detected by at least two different genetic statistical models,while the other three were detected by only one procedure.Among the three QTLs,Flwdt7 was mapped between Sat_213 and Satt643 on LG C2 with only 11.0% contribution rate.For confirmation of Flwdt7,5 RHL populations were developed through selfing eight BC1F5 plants heterozygous at seven markers around the locus.The RHL populations with the same segregating loci were bulked and used to construct a secondary linkage map of the specific segment using software JoinMap 3.0.The genetic distances among the markers on the specific segment became shorter than those of the whole genome map.On the secondary map,Flwdt7 was mapped between Satt277 and Satt489,next to its primary interval Sat_213-Satt643,with distance 1.40 cM to Satt277 and 0.45 cM to Satt489,confidence interval narrowed to 2.7 cM,and contribution rate increased to 36.8%.The results were confirmed with significance analysis among marker genotypes on individual loci and comparison analysis of target marker intervals among near isogenic lines (plants).Thus the strategy by using residual heterozygous lines for QTL fine-mapping on target segments based on primary whole genome scanning with multiple mapping models was demonstrated to be effective. | SU ChengFu LU WeiGuo ZHAO TuanJie GAI JunYi | 2010 | Chinese Science Bulletin2010,55,6: | 6 |
| 8 | Biomarker records in penguin droppings and observed changes in penguin communities and their response to the ENSO in the Western Antarctic显示文摘Lipid biomarkers in AD2 penguin droppings-amend soil core from the Ardley Island,Western Antarctic,were dated using 210Pb.Changes in the fatty acid ratios of nC18:2/nC18:0 from the penguin droppings reflect climate changes coincident with ENNO events during 1931-2006.The occurrence of the minimum values in the depth of 2-3 and 6-7 cm are consistent with the end of ENSO in 1958 and 1983,respectively,reflecting a lag of the biomarker records in AD2 penguin droppings-amend soil in climatic signatures.This study also reveals that the changes in the relative concentration of n-alkanes nC23,the ratios of nC23/nC17 and nC21 /nC22+,and carbon preferential index(CPI) values collectively indicate the variations of soil microor-ganism and lower plant,which are closely related to climate changes.The ratios of bacterial fatty acids iC15:0/aC15:0 reflect the increasing significance of microorganism activities during the two periods that occurred at the end years of ENSO.Decrease in CPIA value and increase in nC21 /nC22+ indicate that low molecular weight fatty acids are derived from microorganism;and their insignificant correlation with Pr/Ph suggests microorganisms play an important role in the relatively simply ecosystem in the Antarctic and are closely linked to climatic conditions.In addition,the observed penguin community indicates the popula-tion of penguin can largely reflect the impacts of global climate changes on the ecosystem. | ZHANG HaiSheng LU DouDing YU PeiSong ZHANG WeiGuo LU Bing Hans-Ulrich PETER Walter VETTER | 2012 | Science China Earth Sciences2012,55,8: | 6 |
| 9 | A new distinct geminivirus causes soybean stay-green disease显示文摘Dear Editor,Plant viruses make up almost half of the plant disease-causing pathogens,affecting crop yields and the global economy(Savary et al.,2019).Soybean(Glycine max)is one of the most valuable legume crops in the world,supplying 25%of the global edible oil and two-thirds of the global concentrated protein for livestock feeding.Recently,the outbreak of soybean stay-green syndrome with delayed leaf senescence(stay-green),flat pods,and increased number of abnormal seeds has swept the soybean production in the Huang-Huai-Hai region of China,resulting in huge yield losses(Xu et al.,2019).This disease has become an epidemic and prominent problem in soybean production and is still expanding its geography,including North America,posing a serious threat to soybean production(Harbach et al.,2016;Zhang et al.,2016;Li et al.,2019).However,the cause of soybean stay-green syndrome remains obscure. | Ruixiang Cheng Ruoxin Mei Rong Yan Hongyu Chen Dan Miao Lina Cai Jiayi Fan Gairu Li Ran Xu Weiguo Lu Yu Gao Wenwu Ye Shuo Su Tianfu Han Junyi Gai Yuanchao Wang Xiaorong Tao Yi Xu | 2022 | Molecular Plant2022,15,6: | 6 |
| 10 | 温带草原退化后土壤微生物群落结构和功能的变化显示文摘草原退化是草原生产力维持面临的一个重大挑战,这一过程显著影响着草原生态系统的能量流动和土壤养分变化过程,进而直接或间接地影响着土壤微生物。我们的研究目的首先是调查不同草原退化程度(即未退化、中度退化和严重退化)如何影响着内蒙古温带草原的土壤微生物组成、多样性和功能,其次是阐明哪些生物和非生物因素导致了这些变化。我们的研究主要通过高通量测序技术分析土壤微生物的群落组成,并且采用FAPROTAX工具和FUNGuild工具分别预测细菌群落和真菌群落的功能。研究发现:草原退化显著降低了土壤细菌的多样性,但对真菌多样性影响不大。地下生物量、土壤有机碳和总氮与细菌的多样性变化呈显著正相关关系。草原退化显著增加了绿弯菌门的相对丰度(由2.48%提高到8.40%),降低了厚壁菌门的相对丰度(由3.62%降低到1.08%)。其次,草原退化也显著增加了球囊菌门的相对丰度(从0.17%提高到1.53%),降低了担子菌门的相对丰度(从19.30%降低到4.83%)。致病菌的相对丰度在草原退化过程中显著下降。此外,草原退化对土壤细菌群落的功能有显著的影响,尤其是与土壤碳氮循环相关的土壤细菌群落。我们的结果表明,土壤细菌群落对草原退化的响应比真菌群落更敏感。 | Yang Yu Lang Zheng Yijun Zhou Weiguo Sang Jianing Zhao Lu Liu Chao Li Chunwang Xiao | 2021 | Journal of Plant Ecology2021,14,3: | 5 |

| 12 | Preparation and analysis of active rat model of rheumatoid arthritis with features of TCM toxic heat-stasis painful obstruction显示文摘Objective:To establish a collagen type II-induced rat model of rheumatoid arthritis(RA)presenting characteristics of the human form of the traditional Chinese syndrome pattern of toxic heat-stasis painful obstruction(bi zheng;arthromyodynia)as well as pathologic features of active RA.The Chinese herbal medicine Tengmei decoction was used to validate the animal model.Methods:Ninety specific pathogen free Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into a normal group of 6 rats and a model group of 84 rats.To establish the rat model of collageninduced arthritis(CIA),bovine type II collagen in complete Freund’s adjuvant was injected into the model group rats as a priming dose(Day 0)and boosting dose(Day 9).Changes in arthritic index(AI)scores,including limb swelling,were monitored.Thereafter,24 successfullyestablished CIA rats were randomly assigned to 4 groups with 6 animals each:model,positive control drug,high-dose traditional Chinese herbal medicine,and traditional Chinese herbal medicine.A blank control group of 6 rats was included.After 12 weeks of intervention with Tengmei decoction,articular synovial tissue and serum specimens were collected to detect interleukin-2(IL-2)and IL-17 transcription and protein expression levels. | Yanan Wang Yan Lu Jie Wang Zhiming Shen Hui Liu Weiguo Ma Jisheng Zhang Xuehong Ma Kang Wang Fengxian Meng | 2015 | Journal of Traditional Chinese Medical Sciences2015,2,3: | 3 |
| 13 | High-performance all-polymer solar cells enabled by a novel low bandgap non-fully conjugated polymer acceptor显示文摘The non-fully conjugated polymer as a new class of acceptor materials has shown some advantages over its small molecular counterpart when used in photoactive layers for all-polymer solar cells(all-PSCs),despite a low power conversion efficiency(PCE)caused by its narrow absorption spectra.Herein,a novel non-fully conjugated polymer acceptor PFY-2TS with a low bandgap of~1.40 eV was developed,via polymerizing a largeπ-fused small molecule acceptor(SMA)building block(namely YBO)with a non-conjugated thioalkyl linkage.Compared with its precursor YBO,PFY-2TS retains a similar low bandgap but a higher LUMO level.Moreover,compared with the structural analog of YBO-based fully conjugated polymer acceptor PFY-DTC,PFY-2TS shows a similar absorption spectrum and electron mobility,but significantly different molecular crystallinity and aggregation properties,which results in optimal blend morphology with a polymer donor PBDB-T and physical processes of the device in all-PSCs.As a result,PFY-2TS-based all-PSCs achieved a PCE of 12.31%with a small energy loss of 0.56 eV enabled by the reduced non-radiative energy loss(0.24 eV),which is better than that of 11.08%for the PFY-DTC-based ones.Our work clearly demonstrated that non-fully conjugated polymers as a new class of acceptor materials are very promising for the development of high-performance all-PSCs. | Qunping Fan Ruijie Ma Tao Liu Jianwei Yu Yiqun Xiao Wenyan Su Guilong Cai Yuxiang Li Wenhong Peng Tao Guo Zhenghui Luo Huiliang Sun Lintao Hou Weiguo Zhu Xinhui Lu Feng Gao Ellen Moons Donghong Yu He Yan Ergang Wang | 2021 | Science China Chemistry2021,64,8: | 3 |
| 14 | Experiment and analysis on microscopic characteristics of pedestrian movement in building bottleneck显示文摘In this paper, evacuation experiments are carried out to study pedestrian movement behaviors in building bottleneck. An image processing method based on mean-shift algorithm is used to extract pedestrian movement trajectory. Based on the extracted trajectory, we analyze the microscopic movement characteristics of pedestrians such as lane formation, change of velocity and distance between two sequential pedestrians. A pedestrian lane is a group of pedestrians moving in a column. The lane formation is verified by the pedestrian trajectory and distribution of pedestrian’s lateral positions (x direction in the paper): lane number changes from one to two, three or even more with the increasing bottleneck width when pedestrians pass through the bottleneck. By analyzing the pedestrian movement behaviors in the same pedestrian lane, we find three typical movement modes in the bottleneck: time-lag acceleration, synchronous acceleration, and avoiding deceleration. Through analyzing the time intervals when successive pedestrians pass through the bottleneck, we find that most pedestrians adjust their velocities according to the distance to the forward pedestrians. Results also indicate that due to different cultures, pedestrians flux in China and Germany may have some differences besides their similarities. | TIAN Wei SONG WeiGuo LU Wei FANG ZhiMing | 2011 | Science China(Technological Sciences)2011,54,7: | 3 |
| 15 | A core-shell structured COYID-19 mRNA vaccine with favorable biodistribution pattern and promising immunity显示文摘Although inoculation of COVID-19 vaccines has rolled out globally,there is still a critical need for safe and effective vaccines to ensure fair and equitable supply for all countries.Here,we report on the development of a highly efficacious mRNA vaccine,SW0123 that is composed of sequence-modified mRNA encoding the full-length SARS-CoV-2 Spike protein packaged in core-shell structured lipopolyplex(LPP)nanoparticles.SWOT 23 is easy to produce using a large-scale microfluidics-based apparatus.The unique core-shell structured nanoparticle facilitates vaccine uptake and demonstrates a high colloidal stability,and a desirable biodistribution pattern with low liver targeting effect upon intramuscular administration.Extensive evaluations in mice and nonhuman primates revealed strong immunogenicity of SW0123,represented by induction of Th1-polarized T cell responses and high levels of antibodies that were capable of neutralizing not only the wild-type SARS-CoV-2,but also a panel of variants including D614G and N501Y variants.In addition,SW0123 conferred effective protection in both mice and non-human primates upon SARS-CoV-2 challenge.Taken together,SW0123 is a promising vaccine candidate that holds prospects for further evaluation in humans. | Ren Yang Yao Deng Baoying Huang Lei Huang Ang Lin Yuhua Li Wenling Wang Jingjing Liu Shuaiyao Lu Zhenzhen Zhan Yufei Wang Ruhan A Wen Wang Peihua Niu Li Zhao Shiqiang Li Xiaopin Ma Luyao Zhang Yujian Zhang Weiguo Yao Xingjie Liang Jincun Zhao Zhongmin Liu Xiaozhong Peng Hangwen Li Wenjie Tan | 2021 | Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy2021,6,6: | 3 |
| 16 | ABM-based emergency evacuation modelling during urban pluvial floods:A“7.20”pluvial flood event study in Zhengzhou,Henan Province显示文摘Increasing urban pluvial flood disasters due to climate change and rapid urbanisation have been a great challenge worldwide.Timely and effective emergency evacuation is important for reducing casualties and losses.This has become a bottleneck for emergency management.This study aimed to develop a commonly used Agent-Based Mode(ABM)for pluvial flood emergency evacuation at the city scale,exploring the cascading impacts of pluvial flooding on human behaviour and emergency evacuation.The July 2021 pluvial flood event in Zhengzhou,Henan Province,claiming 380 lives and 40.9 billion yuan in direct losses,was selected as this case study.A raster-based hydraulic model(ECNU Flood-Urban)was used to predict flood inundation(extent and depth)during an event in Zhengzhou’s centre.Moreover,a comparative analysis of emergency evacuations was conducted before and after the pluvial flood event.The results showed that crowd behaviour plays an important role in an emergency evacuation,and extensive flooding leads to an 11-83%reduction in the number of evacuees.This study highlights the importance of risk education and contingency plans in emergency response.The ABM model developed in this study is proven to be effective and practical and will provide support for decision-making in urban flood emergency management. | Yuhan YANG Jie YIN Dandan WANG Yufan LIU Yi LU Weiguo ZHANG Shiyuan XU | 2023 | Science China Earth Sciences2023,66,2: | 2 |
| 17 | Impact of photosynthesis and transpiration on nitrogen removal in constructed wetlands显示文摘To determine the impact of photosynthesis and transpiration on nitrogen removal in wetlands,an artificial wetland planted with reeds was constructed to treat highly concentrated domestic wastewater.Under different meteoro-logical and hydraulic conditions,the daily changes of photo-synthesis and transpiration of reeds,as well as nitrogen removal efficiency were measured.It was found that net pho-tosynthesis rate per unit leaf area was maintained on a high level(average 19.0μmol CO_(2)/(m^(2)·s))from 10:00 to 14:00 in July 2004 and reached a peak of 21.1μmol CO2/(m2·s)when Photon Flux Density was high during the day.Meanwhile,TN and NH_(4)^(+)-N removal efficiency rose to 79.6%and 89.6%,respectively-the maximum values observed in the test.Correlation coefficient analysis demonstrated a positive cor-relation among photon flux density,net photosynthetic rate,transpiration rate,and TN and NH_(4)^(+)-N removal efficiency.In contrast,there was a negative correlation between stomatal conductance and TN and NH_(4)^(+)-N removal efficiency.Results suggest that the photosynthesis and transpiration of wetland plants have a great impact on nitrogen removal efficiency of wetlands,which can be enhanced by an increase in the photo-synthesis and transpiration rate.In addition,the efficiency of water usage by reeds and nitrogen removal efficiency could be affected by the water level in wetlands;a higher level boosts nitrogen removal efficiency. | LUO Weiguo WANG Shihe HUANG Juan YAN Lu HUANG Jun | 2007 | Frontiers of Environmental Science & Engineering2007,1,3: | 2 |
| 18 | Heat transfer and friction factor of Therminol liquid phase heat transfer fluid in a ribbed tube显示文摘Experiments and simulations on flow and heat transfer behavior of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid have been conducted in a ribbed tube with the outer diameter and inner diameter 25.0 and 20.0 mm,pitch and rib height of 4.5 and 1.0 mm.respectively.Experimental results show that the heat transfer and thermal performance of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid in the ribbed tube are considerably improved compared to those of the smooth tube.The Nusselt number increase with the increase of Reynolds number.The increase in heat transfer rate of the ribbed tube has a mean value of 2.24 times.Also,the pressure drop results reveal that the average friction factor of the ribbed tube is in a range of 2.4 and 2.8 times over the smooth tube.Numerical simulations of three-dimensional flow behavior of Therminol-55 liquid phase heat transfer fluid are carried out using three different turbulence models in the ribbed tube.The numerical results show that the heat transfer of ribbed tube is improved because vortices are generated behind ribs,which produce some disruptions to fluid flow and enhance heat transfer compared with smooth tube.The numerical results prove that the ribbed tube can improve heat transfer and fluid flow performances of Therminol liquid phase heat transfer fluid. | Weiguo Xu Guodong Liu Qinghong Zhang Shuai Wang Huilin Lu Heping Tan | 2017 | Chinese Journal of Chemical Engineering2017,25,10: | 2 |
| 19 | Chemotherapy initiation with single-course methotrexate alone or combined with dactinomycin versus multi-course methotrexate for low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia: a multi-centric randomized clinical trial显示文摘We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of single-course initial regimens in patients with low-risk gestational trophoblastic neoplasia(GTN).In this trial (NCT01823315),276 patients were analyzed.Patients were allocated to three initiated regimens:single-course methotrexate(MTX),single-course MTX+dactinomycin(ACTD),and multi-course MTX(control arm).The primary endpoint was the complete remission(CR)rate by initial drug(s).The primary CR rate was 64.4%with multi-course MTX in the control arm.For the single-course MTX arm,the CR rate was 35.8%by one course;it increased to 59.3%after subsequent multi-course MTX,with non-inferiority to the control(difference-5.1%,95%confidence interval(CI)-19.4%to 9.2%,P=0.014).After further treatment with multi-course ACTD,the CR rate(93.3%)was similar to that of the control(95.2%,P=0.577).For the single-course MTX+ACTD arm,the CR rate was 46.7%by one course,which increased to 89.1%after subsequent multi-course,with non-inferiority(difference 24.7%,95%CI 12.8%-36.6%,P<0.001)to the control.It was similar to the CR rate by MTX and further ACTD in the control arm(89.1%vs.95.2%,P=0.135).Four patients experienced recurrence,with no death,during the 2-year follow-up.We demonstrated that chemotherapy initiation with single-course MTX may be an alternative regimen for patients with low-risk GTN. | Lili Chen Ling Xi Jie Jiang Rutie Yin Pengpeng Qu Xiuqin Li Xiaoyun Wan Yaxia Chen Dongxiao Hu Yuyan Mao Zimin Pan Xiaodong Cheng Xinyu Wang Qingli Li Danhui Weng Xi Zhang Hong Zhang Quanhong Ping Xiaomei Liu Xing Xie Beihua Kong Ding Ma Weiguo Lu | 2022 | Frontiers of Medicine2022,16,2: | 2 |
| 20 | Arginine methylation of ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A senses glucose to promote human colorectal cancer cell survival显示文摘Cancer cells remodel their metabolic network to adapt to variable nutrient availability. Pentose phosphate pathway(PPP) plays protective and biosynthetic roles by oxidizing glucose to generate reducing power and ribose. How cancer cells modulate PPP activity in response to glucose supply remains unclear. Here we show that ribose-5-phosphate isomerase A(RPIA), an enzyme in PPP, directly interacts with co-activator associated arginine methyltransferase 1(CARM1) and is methylated at arginine 42(R42). R42 methylation up-regulates the catalytic activity of RPIA. Furthermore, glucose deprivation strengthens the binding of CARM1 with RPIA to induce R42 hypermethylation. Insufficient glucose supply links to RPIA hypermethylation at R42, which increases oxidative PPP flux. RPIA methylation supports ROS clearance by enhancing NADPH production and fuels nucleic acid synthesis by increasing ribose supply. Importantly, RPIA methylation at R42 significantly potentiates colorectal cancer cell survival under glucose starvation. Collectively, RPIA methylation connects glucose availability to nucleotide synthesis and redox homeostasis. | Jizheng Guo Qixiang Zhang Ying Su Xiaochen Lu Yiping Wang Miao Yin Weiguo Hu Wenyu Wen Qun-Ying Lei | 2020 | Science China(Life Sciences)2020,63,9: | 2 |
