Exosomes are small membrane-enclosed vesicles secreted by various types of cells. Exosomes not only participate in different physiological processes in cells, but also involve in the cellular responses to viral infection. Grass carp reovirus (GCRV) is a non-enveloped virus with segmented, double-stranded RNA genome. Nowadays, the exact role of exosomes in regulating the life cycle of GCRV infection is still unclear. In this study, the exosomes secreted from Ctenopharyngodon idellus kidney (CIK) cells infected or uninfected with GCRV were isolated, and the differential protein expression profiles were analyzed by proteomic technologies. A total of 1297 proteins were identified in the isolated exosomes. The differentially abundant proteins were further analyzed with functional categories, and numerous important pathways were regulated by exosomes in GCRV-infected CIK cells. These exosomal proteins were estimated to interact with the genes (proteins) of the top 10 most enriched signaling pathways. Furthermore, GW4869 exosome inhibitor suppressed the expression level of VP7 in GCRV-infected cells, suggesting that exosomes play a crucial role in the life cycle of GCRV infection. These findings could shed new lights on understanding the functional roles of exosomes in the cellular responses to GCRV infection.

Amphibians are experiencing worldwide declines due to increasing anthropogenetic disturbances. However, the genetic variability and hence adaptability are still unknown for most frogs. We integrated the mitochondrial (ND2 gene), nuclear (TYR gene) and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) loci, to clarify the demographic patterns and immune-gene diversity of the Lolokou Sucker Frog (Amolops loloensis). Demographic analysis of the ND2 and TYR genes suggested that the Lolokou Sucker Frog experienced a population expansion within the last 10,000 years. High MHC diversity was detected, which has likely resulted from positive selection, indicating the current diversity bodes well for the species' adaptive potential to pathogenic challenges. These findings broaden our knowledge on the population history and evolution adaptation of the reclusive torrent frog, and conservation implications are provided.

In order to optimize the tool coating material and reduce the tool wear rate, the coating material and wear mechanism for carbide tools are proposed and analyzed based on thermodynamics theory. We deduced the Gibbs free energy function method and analyzed the enthalpy value of the coating material of cemented carbide tools. The rules of diffusion wear and oxidation wear for WC-Co-based carbide tools were analyzed based on the diffusion dissolution theory and the calculation method of the thermal effect of chemical reaction. The diffusion wear and oxidation wear of WC-Co-based carbide tools when machining Ti-6Al-4V were studied with SEM-EDS. The results indicate that a good prediction accuracy of both diffusion wear and oxidation wear can be achieved by the method of thermodynamic theory analysis method. The conclusion will provide useful references for the optimization of cutting parameters and the improvement of the tool life.

Abnormal activation of Wnt signaling has been demonstrated in the wound healing process and the pathogenesis of fibrotic disorders, with Wnt4 specifically identified as having a key role in the pathogenesis of renal, pulmonary and liver fibrosis. Wnt4 also was found to be upregulated by transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) in fetal and postnatal murine fibroblasts and bone marrow mesenchymal cells, suggesting an underlying cooperation between Wnt4 and TGF-β1 in fibrosis. However, the specific roles of Wnt4 in TGF-β1-induced skin myofibroblast transition and hypertrophic scar formation remain unclear. In the present study, we first observed reduced Wnt4 expression in hypertrophic scar tissue compared with that in normal skin tissue. Following upregulation by TGF-β1, Wnt4 inhibited the TGF-β1-induced transdifferentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts. Using fibroblast-populated collagen lattice contraction assays, we showed that the increased contractility induced by TGF-β1 was significantly blocked by exogenous Wnt4 and the α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) expression was decreased in fibroblasts in the collagen lattices. In addition, knockdown of Wnt4 resulted in further increases in α-SMA and collagen I expressions. Further investigation showed that Wnt4 could inhibit the autocrine effect of TGF-β1 as well as block the phosphorylation of Smad3 and ERK but not of AKT or JNK. Lastly, using hypertrophic scar-derived fibroblasts, we showed that the elevated α-SMA and collagen I levels were markedly reduced after treatment with Wnt4. Taken together, our results suggest that Wnt4 negatively regulates TGF-β1-induced fibroblast activation, which may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment and prevention of hypertrophic scars.

This article presents differential measurements of the asymmetry between $$ {\varLambda}_b^0 $$ Λ b 0 and $$ {\overline{\varLambda}}_b^0 $$ Λ ¯ b 0 baryon production rates in proton-proton collisions at centre-of-mass energies of $$ \sqrt{s} $$ s = 7 and 8 TeV collected with the LHCb experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 3 fb−1. The $$ {\varLambda}_b^0 $$ Λ b 0 baryons are reconstructed through the inclusive semileptonic decay $$ {\varLambda}_b^0 $$ Λ b 0 → $$ {\varLambda}_c^{+} $$ Λ c + μ−$$ \overline{\nu} $$ ν ¯ μX. The production asymmetry is measured both in intervals of rapidity in the range 2.15 < y < 4.10 and transverse momentum in 2 < pT< 27 GeV/c. The results are found to be incompatible with symmetric production with a significance of 5.8 standard deviations for both $$ \sqrt{s} $$ s = 7 and 8 TeV data, assuming no CP violation in the decay. There is evidence for a trend as a function of rapidity with a significance of 4 standard deviations. Comparisons to predictions from hadronisation models in Pythia and heavy-quark recombination are provided. This result constitutes the first observation of a particle-antiparticle asymmetry in b-hadron production at LHC energies.

Searches for CP violation in the two-body decays $$ {D}_{(s)}^{+}\to {h}^{+}{\pi}^0 $$ D s + → h + π 0 and $$ {D}_{(s)}^{+}\to {h}^{+}\eta $$ D s + → h + η (where h+ denotes a π+ or K+ meson) are performed using pp collision data collected by the LHCb experiment corresponding to either 9 fb−1 or 6 fb−1 of integrated luminosity. The π0 and η mesons are reconstructed using the e+e−γ final state, which can proceed as three-body decays π0→ e+e−γ and η → e+e−γ, or via the two-body decays π0→ γγ and η → γγ followed by a photon conversion. The measurements are made relative to the control modes $$ {D}_{(s)}^{+}\to {K}_{\mathrm{S}}^0{h}^{+} $$ D s + → K S 0 h + to cancel the production and detection asymmetries. The CP asymmetries are measured to be$$ {\displaystyle \begin{array}{c}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}{\pi}^0\right)=\left(-1.3\pm 0.9\pm 0.6\right)\%,\\ {}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}^{+}\to {K}^{+}{\pi}^0\right)=\left(-3.2\pm 4.7\pm 2.1\right)\%,\\ {}\begin{array}{c}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}\eta \right)=\left(-0.2\pm 0.8\pm 0.4\right)\%,\\ {}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}^{+}\to {K}^{+}\eta \right)=\left(-6\pm 10\pm 4\right)\%,\\ {}\begin{array}{c}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}_s^{+}\to {K}^{+}{\pi}^0\right)=\left(-0.8\pm 3.9\pm 1.2\right)\%,\\ {}\begin{array}{c}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}_s^{+}\to {\pi}^{+}\eta \right)=\left(0.8\pm 0.7\pm 0.5\right)\%,\\ {}{\mathcal{A}}_{CP}\left({D}_s^{+}\to {K}^{+}\eta \right)=\left(0.9\pm 3.7\pm 1.1\right)\%,\end{array}\end{array}\end{array}\end{array}} $$ A CP D + → π + π 0 = − 1.3 ± 0.9 ± 0.6 % , A CP D + → K + π 0 = − 3.2 ± 4.7 ± 2.1 % , A CP D + → π + η = − 0.2 ± 0.8 ± 0.4 % , A CP D + → K + η = − 6 ± 10 ± 4 % , A CP D s + → K + π 0 = − 0.8 ± 3.9 ± 1.2 % , A CP D s + → π + η = 0.8 ± 0.7 ± 0.5 % , A CP D s + → K + η = 0.9 ± 3.7 ± 1.1 % , where the first uncertainties are statistical and the second systematic. These results are consistent with no CP violation and mostly constitute the most precise measurements of $$ {\mathcal{A}}_{CP} $$ A CP in these decay modes to date.

The transforming growth factor (TGF)-β/Smad signal transduction pathway is closely associated with hypertrophic scar (HS) formation. Smad interacting protein 1 (SIP1) is a cytoplasmic protein that efficiently regulates Smad2-/3-dependent signaling within the TGF-β1 pathway. SIP1 influences collagen synthesis in the HS through a heretofore unknown mechanism. This study investigated the role of the SIP1-mediated TGF-β1/Smad signaling pathway in extracellular matrix (ECM) protein production and hypertrophic scarring. SIP1 expression was markedly lower in HS vs. normal skin (NS) tissue, and α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) content and collagen I/III (Col I/III) synthesis were inversely correlated with SIP1 expression. Furthermore, SIP1 inhibited Smad2/3 phosphorylation in vitro, and improved the collagen-based architecture of the scar while reducing collagen expression and overall scar formation in a rabbit ear model of HS. Based on these findings, we propose that SIP1 acts as a molecular modulator capable of altering Smad2-/3-facilitated signaling through the control of Smad phosphorylation, thus inhibiting α-SMA and collagen upregulation in fibroblasts and, ultimately, HS formation. The low SIP1 content in scar tissue also suggests that SIP1 (and positive regulation thereof) is a prospective target for selective HS drug therapy.

The polycistronic and non-canonical gene tarsal-less (tal, known as pri) was reported to be required for embryonic and imaginal development in Drosophila; however, there are few reports of the tal gene in the silkworm Bombyx mori. Here, we cloned a tal-like (Bmtal) gene, and a sequence analysis showed that the Bmtal cDNA (1661 bp) contains five small open reading frames (smORFs) (A1, A2, A3, A4, and B) that encode short peptides of 11-12 (A1-A4) amino acid residues containing an LDPTG(E)L(Q)(V)Y motif that is conserved in Drosophila Tal, as well as a 32-amino-acid B peptide. Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction showed that the expression of the Bmtal gene was highest in the trachea, followed by the silk gland and Malpighian tubule, in day 3 fifth-instar larvae. Subcellular localization showed that BmTal localized in the nucleus. By regulating the expression of the full-length Bmtal gene and the functional smORFs of Bmtal, we showed that the expression levels of the Bmovo gene and genes related to the Notch, transforming growth factor-β, and Hippo signaling pathways changed with changes in BmTal peptide expression. A co-immunoprecipitation assay showed that BmTal interacts with polyubiquitin, which triggered degradation and/or processing of the 14-3-3 protein zeta. A comparative transcriptome analysis showed that 2843 (2045) genes were up- (down)-regulated after Bmtal gene expression was up-regulated. The up- (down)-regulated differentially expressed genes were enriched in 326 (278) gene ontology terms (P ≤ 0.05) and 54 (59) Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways (P ≤ 0.05), and the results indicated that the BmTal peptides could function as mediators of hormone levels or the activities of multiple pathways, including the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor, Hedgehog, mitogen-activated protein kinase, adipocytokine, and gonadotropin-releasing hormone signaling pathways, as well as the innate immune response. These results increase our understanding of the function and mechanism of BmTal at the genome-wide level.

Wintering areas affect population processes and genetic structuring of many bird species. The Asian Great Bustard (Otis tarda dybowskii) is declining across its range as its breeding and wintering grounds become more fragmented. No genetic information for this vulnerable subspecies in the wild exists. We used noninvasive fecal sampling and mitochondrial sequencing to quantify the level of genetic diversity and the extent of genetic differentiation within and among the wintering populations. Bayesian skyline plot (BSP) analysis was conducted to assess changes in population size over the last several thousand years. Overall, 17 haplotypes were identified in 101 individuals from six wintering grounds, with mean haplotype diversity of 0.90 ± 0.02. Significant population differentiation among wintering grounds was observed [population pairwise test (Φ ST) = 0.13, p

Receptor-mediated endocytosis using a β1 integrin-dependent internalization was considered as the primary mechanism for the initiation of mammalian reovirus infection. Bombyx mori cypovirus (BmCPV) is a member of Reoviridae family which mainly infects the midgut epithelium of silkworm; the cell entry of BmCPV is poorly explored. In this study, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), virus overlay protein binding assay (VOPBA), and BmCPV-protein interaction on the polyvinylidene difluoride membrane (BmCPV-PI-PVDF) methods were employed to screen the interacting proteins of BmCPV, and several proteins including integrin beta and receptor for activated protein kinase C (RACK1) were identified as the candidate interacting proteins for establishing the infection of BmCPV. The infectivity of BmCPV was investigated in vivo and in vitro by RNA interference (RNAi) and antibody blocking methods, and the results showed that the infectivity of BmCPV was significantly reduced by either small interfering RNA-mediated silencing of integrin beta and RACK1 or antibody blocking of integrin beta and RACK1. The expression level of integrin beta or RACK1 is not the highest in the silkworm midgut which is a principal target tissue of BmCPV, suggesting that the molecules other than integrin beta or RACK1 might play a key role in determining the tissue tropism of BmCPV infection. The establishment of BmCPV infection depends on other factors, and these factors interacted with integrin beta and RACK1 to form receptor complex for the cell entry of BmCPV.

Background In our previous study, we identified four isoforms of the Bmovo gene, Bmovo-1, Bmovo-2, Bmovo-3 and Bmovo-4 from the silkworm ovary and verified that ovarian development was regulated by the BmOVO proteins. Results: To understand the regulatory mechanisms of ovarian development, the regulation of four BmOVO isoforms on the B. mori ovarian tumor (Bmotu) promoter activity was investigated with luciferase reporter assays. The results showed the Bmotu promoter activity was positively regulated by BmOVO-1, BmOVO-2, BmOVO-3 and BmOVO-4 in a dose-dependent manner, of which BmOVO-2 had the highest transcriptional activation. However, the first (A1) and third acidic domains (A3) at the N-terminus of BmOVO-1 are transcriptional repression domains, while the fourth (A4) and fifth acidic domains (A5) are transcriptional activation domains. A recombinant BmOVO zinc-finger domain was found to bind to the GTACCGTTGTA sequence located at the Bmotu promoter. Furthermore, the Bmotu promoter activity was negatively regulated by ‘Tal-like’ peptide, which can trigger BmOVO-1 degradation at the N-terminus. Conclusions These results will help us to further understand the regulatory mechanisms of BmOVO isoforms on Bmotu promoter activity and ovarian development in the silkworm.

Recently, the twin field quantum key distribution (TF-QKD) protocols have been investigated extensively. In particular, an efficient protocol for TF-QKD with sending or not sending the coherent state has been given in. Here in this paper, we present results of practical sending-or-not-sending (SNS) twin field quantum key distribution. In real-life implementations, we need consider the following three requirements, a few different intensities rather than infinite number of different intensities, a phase slice of appropriate size rather than infinitely small size and the statistical fluctuations. We first show the decoy-state method with only a few different intensities and a phase slice of appropriate size. We then give a statistical fluctuation analysis for the decoy-state method. Numerical simulation shows that, the performance of our method is comparable to the asymptotic case for which the key size is large enough. Our method can beat the PLOB bound on secret key capacity. Our results show that practical implementations of the SNS quantum key distribution can be both secure and efficient.

We show that a high key rate of Measurement-Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution (MDIQKD) over asymmetric and unstable quantum channel can be obtained by full optimization and compensation. Employing a gradient optimization method, we make the full optimization taking both the global optimization for the 12 independent parameters and the joint constraints for statistical fluctuations. We present a loss-compensation method by monitoring the channel loss for an unstable channel. The numerical simulation shows that the method can produce high key rate for both the asymmetric channel and the unstable channel. Compared with the existing results of independent constraints, our result here improves the key rate by 1 to tens of times in typical experimental conditions.

Bombyx mori bidensovirus (BmBDV) was previously termed as Bombyx mori densovirus type 2 and later it was reclassified in the new genus bidensovirus of the new family Bidnaviridae. The genome of BmBDV Zhenjiang isolate (BmBDV-Z) consists of two non-homologous single-stranded linear DNA molecules VD1 and VD2 which are encapsidated into separate virion. To investigate the infectivity of BmBDV DNA, recombinant plasmids pGEM-VD1 inserted with VD1 genome were transfected into the BmN cells of silkworm. Structural proteins of BmBDV were detected with Western blot and immunofluorescence assay, which indicates pGEM-VD1 replicated in the transfected BmN cells and viral proteins were also expressed. Through TEM observation, we identified about 20 nm BmBDV-like viral particles, which confirmed that BmBDV can be generated after transfection. Subsequently, a recombinant baculovirus BmBac-VD1 inserted with VD1 genome was constructed. Results of Western blot and immunofluorescence assay indicated that viral structural proteins of BmBDV were expressed in the BmBac-VD1-infected cells. Baculiform and spherical virions were also observed in infected cells by TEM, and two kinds of virions were separated. However, results of molecular biological detection revealed that infectious sequence from BmBac-VD1 was packaged within spherical virion. Therefore, we suggested that vector inserted with BmBDV genomic DNA showed infectivity, and BmBDV-like viral particles packaging recombinant DNA can be produced in the cultured BmN cells. Outcome of our current research provided not only a new method of infection to explore the gene function of BmBDV in vitro but also a protocol to facilitate development of more effective new-type pesticides.

Bombyxin (BBX) is an insulin-like peptide exists in the silkworm Bombyx mori. Our previous studies on the effects of inhibiting BBX-B8 expression found that BBX-B8 is important for the development of organ, reproduction and trehalose metabolism in the silkworms. In this paper, we investigated the expression profile of the BBX-B8 gene and effect of BBX-B8 overexpression on the development, body weight, silk protein synthesis and egg diapause of B. mori to further understand BBX-B8 functions. BBX-B8 gene expression could be detected in the brains, midguts, anterior silkglands, ovaries, testes, fat bodies, hemolymph, malpighian tubules and embryos by RT-PCR, however it was mainly expressed in the brain. Western blots showed that the change in BBX-B8 expression was not obvious in the brain of 1- to 4-day-old larvae of fifth instar silkworms, but expression increased substantially at 5- to 6-day-old larvae of fifth instar silkworms. Transgenic silkworms overexpressing BBX-B8 were obtained by introducing non-transposon transgenic vector pIZT-B8 containing a BBX-B8 gene driven by Orgyia pseudotsugata nucleopolyhedrovirus IE2 promoter into the genome. Development duration of the transgenic silkworms was delayed by 2.5-3.5 days. Cocoon shell weight of transgenic silkworms was reduced by 4.79 % in females and 7.44 % in males, pupal weight of transgenic silkworms was reduced 6.75 % in females and 13.83 % in males compared to non-transgenic silkworms, and 5.56-14.29 % of transgenic moths laid nondiapausing eggs. All results indicated that BBX-B8 plays an important role in the development, silk protein synthesis and egg diapause of silkworm.

Forest musk deer (Moschus berezovskii; FMD) are both economically valuable and highly endangered. A problem for FMD captive breeding programs has been the susceptibility of FMD to abscesses. To investigate the mechanisms of abscess development in FMD, the blood transcriptomes of three purulent and three healthy individuals were generated. A total of ~39.68 Gb bases were generated using Illumina HiSeq 4000 sequencing technology and 77,752 unigenes were identified after assembling. All the unigenes were annotated, with 63,531 (81.71%) mapping to at least one database. Based on these functional annotations, 45,798 coding sequences (CDS) were detected, along with 12,697 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and 65,536 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). A total of 113 unigenes were found to be differentially expressed between healthy and purulent individuals. Functional annotation indicated that most of these differentially expressed genes were involved in the regulation of immune system processes, particularly those associated with parasitic and bacterial infection pathways.

When dense nonaqueous phase liquid is released from human activities and infiltrates into groundwater system, its migration is influenced by heterogeneity of aquifer seriously. In this study, an experiment is conducted in two-dimensional heterogeneous translucent granular porous media to explore the long-term migration of perchloroethylene (PCE, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethene). Porosity of translucent porous media is derived by light transmission micro-tomography method. Afterward, a three-dimensional (3D) right square pyramid microstructure for granular media is developed to obtain the permeability and entry pressure. Representative elementary volume (REV) of translucent granular porous media is estimated using a criterion of relative gradient error ( $$\varepsilon_{\text{g}}^{i}$$ ). Based on the obtained heterogeneities of media and corresponding REV estimation, simulation models with consideration of inner heterogeneities of media and without consideration of inner heterogeneities are compared to reveal the simulation effects. The discretization of simulation region is conducted according to results of REV estimation. Compared with model without consideration of inner heterogeneities, the model based on inner heterogeneities is more capable of characterizing the migration of PCE and is in good agreement with the experiment during the entire long-term contaminant migration including calibration, verification and validation periods. Moreover, observed PCE infiltration and spreading behavior are validated through moment analysis. This study reveals the complexity of PCE behavior during long-term contaminant migration periods and the importance of quantification of media heterogeneity for accurate simulation. Simultaneously, 3D microstructures of porous media should be delineated effectively.

The silkworm Bombyx mori is a poikilotherm and is therefore sensitive to various climatic conditions. The influence of temperature on the intestinal flora and the relationship between the intestinal flora and gene expression in the silkworm remain unknown. In the present study, changes of the intestinal flora at 48, 96 and 144 h following transient high temperature treatment (THTT) of 37 °C for 8 h were investigated. According to principal component analysis, the abundances of Enterococcus and Staphylococcus showed a negative correlation with other dominant genera. After THTT, the gene expression levels of spatzle-1 and dicer-2 were increased and decreased, respectively, which suggested that the Toll and RNAi pathways were activated and suppressed, respectively. The species-gene expression matrix confirmed that the spatzle-1 and dicer-2 gene expression levels were negatively and positively correlated, respectively, with the abundance of Enterococcus and Staphylococcus in the control. The abundance of Variovorax post-THTT was positively correlated with the spatzle-1 gene expression level, whereas the community richness of Enterococcus was negatively correlated with the spatzle-1 gene expression level and positively correlated with the dicer-2. The results of the present investigation provide new evidence for understanding the relationships among THTT, intestinal flora and host gene expression.

Background The muskrat is a seasonal breeder. Males secrete musk to attract females during the breeding season. The testosterone binding to the androgen receptor (AR) in musk glands of muskrat may play an important role conducting the musk secretion process. Methods The musk gland, testis and blood samples of musk rats are collected in both breeding and non-breeding seasons. Some part of the samples are kept in liquid nitrogen for transcriptome analysis and Western blotting test. Some part of the samples are kept in 70% alcohol for histology experiment, blood samples are kept at −20 °C for the serum testosterone measurement experiment. Results This study demonstrates that the quantity of secreted musk, the volume of the musk glands, the diameter of the gland cells and AR expression are all higher during the breeding season than at other times (p

Scarring, tightly associated with fibrosis, is a significant symptomatic clinical problem. Interleukin 10 (IL-10) has been identified as a candidate scar-improving therapy based on preclinical studies. However, the molecular mechanism of IL-10 in scar improvement is still uncertain. In this study, human dermal fibroblasts stimulated with TGF-β1 were treated with IL-10 to analyze the mRNA and some of proteins' expression levels of type I collagen (Col1), type III collagen (Col3), alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1), MMP2, MMP8 and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1), TIMP2 by real-time PCR and Western blot, to observe α-SMA-positive fibroblasts by immunocytochemistry. The contracture and improvement of fibroblast-populated collagen lattice (FPCL) and a murine model of wound healing were used to evaluate the scar-improving effects by histological staining. The results showed that IL-10 can significantly down-regulate the mRNA and protein expression levels of Col1, Col3, α-SMA, and up-regulate the mRNA expression levels of MMP1 and MMP8, and decrease α-SMA-positive fibroblasts. FPCL analysis showed that the IL-10 (20 ng/ml) can significantly inhibit the contracture, improve the architecture of FPCL. Wounds injected with IL-10 demonstrated that the appearance of scar was improved, the wound margin of scarring was narrow, and the deposition of collagens (Col1 and Col3) in regenerated tissue was relieved. These results provide direct evidences that IL-10 has the inhibitory effects on the excessive deposition of extracellular matrix components and fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition, and show that IL-10 has the potential therapy in prevention and reduction of skin scarring.

Autographa californica multiple nucleopolyhedrovirus (AcMNPV) odv-e25 is a core gene found in all lepidopteran baculoviruses, but its function is unknown. In this study, we generated an odv-e25-knockout AcMNPV and investigated the roles of ODV-E25 in the baculovirus life cycle. The odv-e25 knockout was subsequently rescued by reinserting the odv-e25 gene into the same virus genome. Fluorescence microscopy showed that transfection with the odv-e25-null bacmid vAcBac(KO) was insufficient for propagation in cell culture, whereas the 'repair' virus vAcBac(RE) was able to function in a manner similar to that of the control vAcBac. We found that odv-e25 was not essential for the release of budded viruses (BVs) into culture medium, although the absence of odv-e25 resulted in a 100-fold lower viral titer at 24 h post-transfection (p.t.). Analysis of viral DNA replication in the absence of odv-e25 showed that viral DNA replication was unaffected in the first 24 h p.t. Furthermore, electron microscopy revealed that polyhedra were found in the nucleus, while mature occlusion-derived viruses (ODVs) were not found in the nucleus or polyhedra in odv-e25 null transfected cells, which indicated that ODV-E25 was required for the formation of ODV.

The study compares the effects of three preservation methods (ethanol, drying and freezing) and two extraction methods (commercial kit and manual) on the PCR success rate and genotyping errors with fecal DNA from Przewalski’s horse (Equus przewalskii). The interaction term between preservation and extraction was significant, and the highest amplification success rate (0.661) was obtained with samples stored in ethanol and extracted manually. The preservation method and time significantly impacted microsatellite amplification success rates. The method of preservation had an effect on the rate of allelic dropout (ADO), but the rate of false alleles (FA) varied nonsignificantly. Feces preserved in ethanol yielded the lowest ADO and FA, followed by drying and freezing. Our optimized preservation protocol probably have wide applicability to equids and rhinocerotids that produce large, high-fiber fecal pellets.

The complete nucleotide sequence of the mitogenome of Bombyx mandarina strain Qingzhou was determined. The circular genome is 15,717 bp long and has the typical gene organization and order of lepidopteran mitogenomes. All protein-coding sequences are initiated with a typical ATN codon, except the COI gene, which has a 4-bp TTAG putative initiator codon. Eleven of the 13 protein-coding gene have a complete termination codon (all TAA), but the remaining two genes terminate with incomplete codons. All transfer RNAs (tRNAs) have a clover-leaf structure typical of the mitochondrial tRNAs, and some of them have a mismatch in the four-stem-and-loop structure. The length of the A + T rich region of B. mandarina strain Qingzhou is 495 bp, shorter than that of B. mandarina strain Tsukuba (747 bp) but similar to that of Bombyx mori. Phylogenetic analysis based on the whole mitochondrial genome sequences of the available sequenced species (B. mori strains C-108, Aojuku, Backokjam, and Xiafang, B. mandarina strains Tsukuba, Ankang, and Qingzhou, and Antheraea pernyi) shows the origin of the domesticated silkmoth B. mori to be the Chinese B. mandarina. Nuclear mitochondrial pseudogene sequences were detected in the nuclear genome of B. mori with the MEGA BLAST search program. A phylogenetic analysis of these nuclear mitochondrial pseudogene sequences suggests that B. mori was domesticated independently in different areas and periods.

Turbulent transport in bulk-phase fluids and transport in porous media with fractal character involve fluctuations on all space and time scales. Consequently one anticipates constitutive theories should be nonlocal in character and involve constitutive parameters with arbitrary wavevector and frequency dependence. We provide here a nonequilibrium statistical mechanical theory of transport which involves both diffusive and convective mixing (dispersion) at all scales. The theory is based on a generalization of classical approaches used in molecular hydrodynamics and on time-correlation functions defined in terms of nonequilibrium expectations. The resulting constitutive laws are nonlocal and constitutive parameters are wavevector and frequency dependent. All results reduce to their convolution-Fickian quasi-Fickian, or Fickian counterparts in the appropriate limits.
