Overexpression of 4EBP1, p70S6K, Akt1 or Akt2 differentially promotes Coxsackievirus B3-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells by Xing, X., Huang, L., Li, X., Li, Z., Zhou, W., Tian, L., Chen, J., Chen, C., Ma, Xing, Yang, Z.

“…And then, we established the stable transfected cell lines. Next, after CVB3 infection, apoptosis in different groups was determined by flow cytometry; the expressions of Bim, Bax, caspase-9 and caspase-3 were examined by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR and western blot analysis; the expression of CVB3 mRNA and viral capsid protein VP1 were also analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, western blot analysis and immunofluorescence, respectively. …”

Space charge induced beam loss on a high intensity proton synchrotron by Pine, B

“…Beam will be lost on injection to a synchrotron and may be lost on extraction or in transfer lines. Non-linearities in the accelerator lattice can introduce driving terms for resonant beam behaviour. …”

Unexpected anthropogenic emission decreases explain recent atmospheric mercury concentration declines by Feinberg, Aryeh, Selin, Noelle E., Braban, Christine F., Chang, Kai-Lan, Custódio, Danilo, Jaffe, Daniel A., Kyllönen, Katriina, Landis, Matthew S., Leeson, Sarah R., Luke, Winston, Molepo, Koketso M., Murovec, Marijana, Nerentorp Mastromonaco, Michelle G., Aspmo Pfaffhuber, Katrine, Rüdiger, Julian, Sheu, Guey-Rong, St. Louis, Vincent L.

“…Faster declines in 95th percentile Hg0 values than median values in Europe, North America, and East Asian measurement stations corroborate that the likely cause is a decline in nearby anthropogenic emissions rather than background legacy reemissions. …”

Effect of a high strength chemical industry wastewater on microbial community dynamics and mesophilic methane generation by Venkatakrishnan, Harish, Tan, Youming, Majid, Maszenan bin Abdul, Pathak, Santosh, Sendjaja, Antonius Yudi, Li, Dongzhe, Liu, Jerry Jian Lin, Zhou, Yan, Ng, Wun Jern

“…The analysis revealed that the presence of organisms resembling Syntrophomonadaceae could have contributed to increased production of acetic and propionic acid intermediates while decrease of organisms resembling Pelotomaculum sp. could have most likely contributed to accumulation of propionic acid. …”

Low biodegradability of dissolved organic matter from Southeast Asian peat-draining rivers by Nichols, Robert S., Martin, Patrick

“…Our results suggest that direct microbial respiration is perhaps not a major pathway for peatland tDOC remineralization in Southeast Asia and that photo-oxidation is more likely to control the fate of this carbon.…”

Metrics to relate COVID-19 wastewater data to clinical testing dynamics by Xiao, Amy, Wu, Fuqing, Bushman, Mary, Zhang, Jianbo, Imakaev, Maxim, Chai, Peter R., Duvallet, Claire, Endo, Noriko, Erickson, Timothy B., Armas, Federica, Arnold, Brian, Chen, Hongjie, Chandra, Franciscus, Ghaeli, Newsha, Gu, Xiaoqiong, Hanage, William P., Lee, Wei Lin, Matus, Mariana, McElroy, Kyle A., Moniz, Katya, Rhode, Steven F., Thompson, Janelle, Alm, Eric J.

“…Time lag and transfer function analysis showed that wastewater data preceded clinically reported cases in the first wave of the pandemic but did not serve as a leading indicator in the second wave, likely due to increased testing capacity, which allows for more timely case detection and reporting. …”

Are there advantages to believing in fate? the belief in negotiating with fate when faced with constraints by Au, Evelyn W. M., Savani, Krishna

“…Instead, when individuals face constraining circumstances in which potential courses of actions are clearly limited, they are more likely to believe that they are able to negotiate with fate, and this belief can help them move forward from negative outcomes. …”
