Elongated magma plumbing system beneath the Coso volcanic field, California, constrained by seismic reflection tomography by Wang, Dongdong, Wu, Shucheng, Li, Tianjue, Tong, Ping, Gao, Yongxin

“…Our final velocity model reveals a prominent low-velocity body sitting right beneath the CVF at 5–20 km depths, which we interpret as a rhyolite magma reservoir that supplies heat flux to the hot springs and also feeds the volcanic activities at Coso. We find that the upper-middle crustal low-velocity body dips southwards into the lower crust, extending to regions beneath the Indian Wells Valley and the Garlock Fault at depth greater than 20 km. …”

Whole genome sequencing and comparative analysis of novel pathogen elizbethkingia anophelis against oxidative stress by Li, Yingying

“…Moreover, the transcriptome profiling comparison between E. anophelis NUHP1 treated with hydrogen peroxide and with mouse blood further showed that E. anophelis NUHP1 displayed the similar protective mechanism associated with iron siderophore and heme utilization when contact with mouse blood, indicating that oxidative stress is the major stress for E. anophelis NUHP1 when infect hosts and the strong resistance to oxidative stress enables E. anophelis to be dominant in the blood meal feeding mosquitoes. Furthermore, we also showed that hemoglobin but not ferric iron greatly facilitates the growth, hydrogen peroxide tolerance and biofilm formation of E. anophelis NUHP1. …”

Nuclei sorting-based genome-wide CRISPR screens to identify novel regulators of hepatic insulin signalling by Martin Perez, E

“…By modulating rates of hepatic glucose output and glucose uptake into skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, it is at the core of blood glucose homeostasis, ensuring normoglycaemia during fasting and feeding. The liver is one of the three major tissues that acts in sustaining appropriate blood glucose levels. …”

Exposure to Pb-halide perovskite nanoparticles can deliver bioavailable Pb but does not alter endogenous gut microbiota in zebrafish by Patsiou, Danae, del Rio-Cubilledo, Cristina, Catarino, Ana Isabel, Summers, Stephen, Afiq Mohd Fahmi, Boyle, David, Fernandes, Teresa F., Henry, Theodore B.

“…Induction of mt2 and reduction of ala-d expression levels in liver tissues showed Pb bioavailability after 2-d and 4-d dietary exposure to perovskite-spiked feeds. Changes in gut microbiota of adult zebrafish were detected after 14-d exposure to Pb-spiked food, but no changes were detected from perovskite-NP spiked food. …”
