description: We present ATCA observations of the H2O maser line and radio continuum at 18.0GHz and 22.8GHz, toward a sample of 192 massive star forming regions containing several clumps already imaged at 1.2mm. The main aim of this study is to investigate the water maser and centimeter continuum emission (likely tracing thermal free-free emission) in sources at different evolutionary stages, using the evolutionary classifications proposed by Palla et al (1991) and Molinari et al (2008). We used the recently comissioned CABB backend at ATCA obtaining images with 20arcsec resolution in the 1.3cm continuum and H2O maser emission, in all targets. For the evolutionary analysis of the sources we used the millimeter continuum emission from Beltran et al (2006) and the infrared emission from the MSX Point Source Catalogue. We detect centimeter continuum emission in 88% of the observed fields with a typical rms noise level of 0.45mJy/beam. Most of the fields show a single radio continuum source, while in 20% of them we identify multiple components. A total of 214 centimeter continuum sources have been identified, likely tracing optically thin HII regions, with physical parameters typical of both extended and compact HII regions. Water maser emission was detected in 41% of the regions, resulting in a total of 85 distinct components. The low angular (20arcsec) and spectral (14km/s) resolutions do not allow a proper analysis of the water maser emission, but suffice to investigate its association with the continuum sources. We have also studied the detection rate of HII regions in the two types of IRAS sources defined by Palla et (1991) on the basis of the IRAS colours: High and Low. No significant differences are found, with large detection rates (>90%) for both High and Low sources. We classify the millimeter and infrared sources in our fields in three evolutionary stages following the scheme presented by ...

description: Migration is a complex behaviour that is costly in terms of time, energy and risk of mortality. Thermal soaring birds rely on airflow, specifically wind support and uplift, to offset their energetic costs of flight. Their migratory routes are a record of movement decisions to negotiate the atmospheric environment and achieve efficiency. We expected that, regardless of age, birds use wind support to select their routes. Because thermal soaring is a complex flight behaviour that young birds need to learn, we expected that, as individuals gain more experience, their movement decisions will also increasingly favour the best thermal uplift conditions. We quantified how route choice during autumn migration of young European honey buzzards (Pernis apivorus) was adjusted to wind support and uplift over up to 4 years of migration and compared this to the choices of adult birds. We found that wind support was important in all migrations. However, we did not find an increase in the use of thermal uplifts. This could be due to the species-specific learning period and/or an artefact of the spatio-temporal scale of our uplift proxies.

description: Science-informed, reductionist policy has systematically failed to address wicked situations. Such situations are highly interconnected and unpredictable. As a consequence, the implementation of so-called desirable interventions can lead to the export of vulnerabilities within and across different societal domains, sectors, intersections and scales. Systemic practice is an emerging field, and highlights the need to enrich scientific inquiry and policy actions through action learning with an “extended peer community'' as a means to navigate wicked situations. In this paper, we report on the potential of game co-design as a systemic practice to improve the situation of Baltic Sea nutrient enrichment. Findings from water catchments in Finland, Sweden and Poland suggest that the co-design of serious games can both enhance the comprehension of wicked situations, and foster self-organized concerted action without imposing a convergence of perspectives amongst diverse stakeholders.

description: We performed a series of numerical vertical compression tests on assemblies of 2D granular material using a Discrete Element code and studied the results with regard to the grain shape. The samples consist of 5,000 grains made from either 3 overlapping discs (clumps - grains with concavities) or six-edged polygons (convex grains). These two grain type have similar external envelopes, which is a function of a geometrical parameter $α$. In this paper, the numerical procedure applied is briefly presented followed by the description of the granular model used. Observations and mechanical analysis of dense and loose granular assemblies under isotropic loading are made. The mechanical response of our numerical granular samples is studied in the framework of the classical vertical compression test with constant lateral stress (biaxial test). The comparison of macroscopic responses of dense and loose samples with various grain shapes shows that when $α$ is considered a concavity parameter, it is therefore a relevant variable for increasing mechanical performances of dense samples. When $α$ is considered an envelope deviation from perfect sphericity, it can control mechanical performances for large strains. Finally, we present some remarks concerning the kinematics of the deformed samples: while some polygon samples subjected to a vertical compression present large damage zones (any polygon shape), dense samples made of clumps always exhibit thin reflecting shear bands.

description: We consider the performance of the ATLAS and CMS searches for events with missing transverse energy, which were originally motivated by supersymmetry, in constraining extensions of the Standard Model based on extra dimensions, in which the mass differences between recurrences at the same level are generically smaller than the mass hierarchies in typical supersymmetric models. We consider first a toy model with pair-production of a single vector-like quark U1 decaying into a spin-zero stable particle A1 and jet, exploring the sensitivity of the CMS alphaT and ATLAS meff analysis to U1 mass and the U1-A1 mass difference. For this purpose we use versions of the Delphes generic detector simulation with CMS and ATLAS cards, which have been shown to reproduce the published results of CMS and ATLAS searches for supersymmetry. We then explore the sensitivity of these searches to a specific model with two universal extra dimensions, whose signal is dominated by the pair production of quark recurrences, including searches with leptons. We find that the LHC searches have greater sensitivity to this more realistic model, due partly to the contributions of signatures with leptons, and partly to events with large missing transverse energy generated by the decays of higher-level Kaluza-Klein recurrences. We find that the CMS alphaT analysis with ~5/fb of data at 7 TeV excludes a recurrence scale of 600 GeV at a confidence level above 99%, increasing to 99.9% when combined with the CMS single-lepton search, whereas a recurrence scale of 700 GeV is disfavoured at the 72% confidence level.

The expected size of the intact wild-type (WT) allele is 1018 bp. PCR products smaller than 1018 bp correspond to the expected sizes when 2 sgRNAs result in the removal of the fragment between them leading to larger deletions and shorter PCR products. The size of bands was determined by the Bioanalyzer software. In PR-low pools bands at around 1018 bp may correspond to intact WT allele and/or allele with indel mutations. Three control pools and PR-low pools were selected for RNA-seq (‡).

description: 1. Whole blood can be used to gain insights on several molecular mechanisms involved in animal physiology. However, its use to extract RNA from organisms that carry nucleated red blood cells is limited due to its high nuclease content and instability under field conditions. 2. Here, we evaluate three commercially available RNA preservation and extraction methods applied to avian whole-blood samples kept in different storage conditions to identify the most suitable ones for use in field studies. 3. Whole-blood starting volume was the most important factor; only samples with a starting volume of 50 µl yielded RNA, whereas all 100 µl samples failed to provide any RNA regardless of the method used. RNA concentration decreased with storage time in every method employed. Samples stored at −20°C yielded higher RNA concentration than the ones stored at 4°C, although some possible effects of freeze-thaw cycles were observed. 4. For two of the three methods, it is likely that DNA contamination and/or extensive degradation of RNA could have taken place. Only whole blood stored and extracted using the Quick RNA Whole Blood kit provided high-quality RNA in every condition tested.

description: 1. Chicken primary myoblasts (CPMs) are precursors that form muscle fibres. The proliferation and differentiation of CPMs is an essential stage in muscle development. Previous RNA-seq analysis showed that phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) is a differentially expressed gene in chicken muscle tissue at different growth stages. Therefore, the following study explored the effect of PHGDH on the proliferation and differentiation of CPMs. 2. The effect on the proliferation of CPMs by RT–qPCR, CCK-8, and EdU assays after the overexpression and knockdown of PHGDH was evaluated. RT–qPCR, western blotting, and indirect immunofluorescence were used to detect the effect of PHGDH on the differentiation of the CPMs. The expression was observed at different time points for differentiation induced by the CPMs. 3. The results showed that PHGDH significantly promoted proliferation and differentiation in CPMs. The results showed that overexpression of PHGDH significantly upregulated CPM proliferation, while knockdown had the opposite effect. Marker genes showed that overexpression of PHGDH significantly upregulated the expression of P21, MYOG and MYOD genes, significantly downregulated the expression of the MSTN gene and promoted the expression of the MYHC protein. In contrast, PHGDH knockdown had the opposite effect. 4. Desmin immunofluorescence analysis of myotube differentiation in primary myoblasts showed that overexpression of PHGDH significantly increased the area of myotube differentiation and promoted the proliferation and differentiation of myoblasts. Knockdown of PHGDH had the opposite effect. 5. In summary, PHGDH was shown to play a positive role in regulating myoblast proliferation and differentiation. This provides a theoretical basis for further analysis of the regulatory mechanism of the PHGDH gene in chicken muscle development and for improving poultry production.

Supplemental data: Analysis of gene expression and mutation data points on contribution of transcription to the mutagenesis by APOBEC enzymes
Creators: name: Kazanov, Marat
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Since the discovery of the role of the APOBEC enzymes in human cancers, the mechanisms of this type of mutagenesis remain little understood. Theoretically, targeting of single-stranded DNA by the APOBEC enzymes could occur during cellular processes leading to the unwinding of DNA double-stranded structure. Some evidence points to the importance of replication in the APOBEC mutagenesis, while the role of transcription is still underexplored. We performed the study where we analyzed gene expression and whole genome sequencing data from five types of human cancers with substantial APOBEC activity to estimate the involvement of transcription in the APOBEC mutagenesis and compare its impact with that of replication. Using the TCN motif as the mutation signature of the APOBEC enzymes, we observed a correlation of active APOBEC mutagenesis with gene expression, confirmed the increase of APOBEC-induced mutations in early-replicating regions, and estimated the relative impact of transcription and replication on the APOBEC mutagenesis. We also found that the known effect of higher density of APOBEC-induced mutations on the lagging strand was highest in middle-replicating regions, and observed higher APOBEC mutation density on the sense strand, the latter bias positively correlated with the gene expression level. We present here supplemental data for this study.

description: This study aimed to develop a novel monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(D, L-lactide) (mPEG5000–PLA10 000) micelle drug delivery system to improve vinpocetine’s (VP) dissolution and sustain VP concentrations in plasma. Three micelle fabrication methods were examined to maximize VP loading, followed by structurally characterization and investigation in vitro release and in vivo pharmacokinetics in Sprague-Dawley rats. The thin-film hydration is the most appropriate method of the three methods because of its high loading content. The loaded micelles exhibited a sustained release behavior up to 48 h. Following intraperitoneal administration (9 mg/kg), VP loaded micelles provided significantly higher (335%) AUC (area under concentration-time) compared to VP injection. And also increased the mean residence time [MRT(0–t)] and elimination half-life (t1/2z). There were obviously two peaks at 2 h and 9 h in VP loaded micelles concentration-time profile. In summary, these data demonstrated that poly mPEG-PLA micelles can efficiently sustain VP concentrations in plasma for 36 h, thus apprehending polymeric micelles suitability as poor aqueous solubility drug carriers.

description: We consider the Laplacian operator H_0 perturbed by a non-positive potential $V$, which is periodic in two directions, and decays in the remaining one. We are interested in the characterization and decay properties of the guided states, defined as the eigenfunctions of the reduced operators in the Bloch-Floquet-Gelfand transform of H_0+V in the periodic variables. If V is sufficiently small and decreases fast enough in the infinite direction, we prove that, generically, these guided states are characterized by quasi-momenta belonging to some one-dimensional compact real analytic submanifold of the Brillouin zone. Moreover they decay faster than any polynomial function in the infinite direction.

description: The search for diffuse non-thermal, inverse Compton (IC) emission from galaxy clusters at hard X-ray energies has been underway for many years, with most detections being either of low significance or controversial. In this work, we investigate 14-195 keV spectra from the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) all-sky survey for evidence of non-thermal excess emission above the exponentially decreasing tail of thermal emission in the flux-limited HIFLUGCS sample. To account for the thermal contribution at BAT energies, XMM-Newton EPIC spectra are extracted from coincident spatial regions so that both thermal and non-thermal spectral components can be determined simultaneously. We find marginally significant IC components in six clusters, though after closer inspection and consideration of systematic errors we are unable to claim a clear detection in any of them. The spectra of all clusters are also summed to enhance a cumulative non-thermal signal not quite detectable in individual clusters. After constructing a model based on single-temperature fits to the XMM-Newton data alone, we see no significant excess emission above that predicted by the thermal model determined at soft energies. This result also holds for the summed spectra of various subgroups, except for the subsample of clusters with diffuse radio emission. For clusters hosting a diffuse radio halo, a relic, or a mini-halo, non-thermal emission is initially detected at the \sim5-sigma confidence level - driven by clusters with mini-halos - but modeling and systematic uncertainties ultimately degrade this significance. In individual clusters, the non-thermal pressure of relativistic electrons is limited to \sim10% of the thermal electron pressure, with stricter limits for the more massive clusters, indicating that these electrons are likely not dynamically important in the central regions of clusters.

description: We study N <= 2 superconformal and supersymmetric theories on Lorentzian threemanifolds with a view toward holographic applications, in particular to BPS black hole solutions. As in the Euclidean case, preserved supersymmetry for asymptotically locally AdS solutions implies the existence of a (charged) "conformal Killing spinor" on the boundary. We find that such spinors exist whenever there is a conformal Killing vector which is null or timelike. We match these results with expectations from supersymmetric four-dimensional asymptotically AdS black holes. In particular, BPS bulk solutions in global AdS are known to fall in two classes, depending on their graviphoton magnetic charge, and we reproduce this dichotomy from the boundary perspective. We finish by sketching a proposal to find the dual superconformal quantum mechanics on the horizon of the magnetic black holes.

description: 1. Whole blood can be used to gain insights on several molecular mechanisms involved in animal physiology. However, its use to extract RNA from organisms that carry nucleated red blood cells is limited due to its high nuclease content and instability under field conditions. 2. Here, we evaluate three commercially available RNA preservation and extraction methods applied to avian whole blood samples kept in different storage conditions to identify the most suitable ones for use in field studies. 3. Whole blood starting volume was the most important factor; only samples with a starting volume of 50 µl yielded RNA whereas all 100 µl samples failed to provide any RNA regardless of the method used. RNA concentration decreased with storage time in every method employed. Samples stored at -20 °C yielded higher RNA concentration than the ones stored at 4°C although some possible effects of freeze-thaw cycles were observed. 4. For the two out of three methods it is likely that DNA contamination and/or extensive degradation of RNA could have taken place. Only whole blood stored and extracted using the Quick RNA Whole Blood kit provided high quality RNA in every condition tested.

description: 1. This trial investigated the effects of three diets with increasing proportions of insoluble dietary fibre (3%, 6% and 9%) but with similar metabolisable energy on behaviour, plumage condition and laying performance of Lohmann Tradition hens. 2. At 21 weeks of age, four groups of 20 hens each (= four replicates/treatment) were randomly assigned to one of the three feeding treatments and exclusively fed with their assigned feed until the end of the laying period. 3. Severe feather pecking decreased with increasing fibre content (3%: 0.78 pecks/30min/hen, 6%: 0.31, 9%: 0.12; P<0.0001). In contrast, no effect of fibre was seen for gentle feather pecking (P=0.19) and aggressive pecking (P=0.84). The number of free feathers in the littered area increased with increasing fibre content (3%: 0.06 feathers/625cm2/hen, 6%: 0.09, 9%: 0.16; P=0.0074). Over time plumage quality worsened in all hens, but was consistently better with increasing fibre content (fibre content x sampling period; P<0.0001). Locomotor activity was similar across all treatments, except for a slight decrease in hens fed the 3% fibre diet at the end of the experimental period. No effect of fibre content on hens’ weight (P=0.75) was detectable. Similarly, performance did not differ between hens fed varying dietary fibre. 4. The results supported the assumption that increasing dietary fibre helps to reduce the risk for the occurrence of feather pecking in laying hens, i.e., improve well-being, while having no negative effects on performance.

description: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow are the stem cells producing all types of blood cells and supplying the organism with new blood cells. There is a high clinical interest in being able to maintain and expand hHSCs in vitro as this could be applied to treat a large number of haematological malignancies. In vivo, they expand in the hematopoietic niche but recapitulating an artificial niche for ex vivo hHSC maintenance and expansion remains challenging. Microengineering biomimetic three dimensional environments provides a realistic environment of an artificial stem cell niche. For this purpose, microfluidic lab-on-a-chip technologies provide a new unique advantages to mimic complex physiological microenvironments in vitro. Here, a droplet-based microfluidic device able to generate double layered three-dimensional hydrogel environments to maintain hHScs ex vivo is presented

description: We present next-to-leading order predictions for final states containing leptons produced through the decay of a Z boson in association with either a photon and a jet, or a pair of photons. The effect of photon radiation from the final state leptons is included and we also allow for contributions arising from fragmentation processes. Phenomenological studies are presented for the LHC in the case of final states containing charged leptons and in the case of neutrinos. We also use the procedure introduced by Stewart and Tackmann to provide a reliable estimate of the scale uncertainty inherent in our theoretical calculations of jet-binned Z gamma cross sections. These computations have been implemented in the public code MCFM.

description: This study aimed to develop a novel monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-b-poly(D, L-lactide) (mPEG5000-PLA10000) micelle drug delivery system to improve vinpocetine’s (VP) dissolution and sustain VP concentrations in plasma. Three micelle fabrication methods were examined to maximize VP loading, followed by structurally characterization and investigation in vitro release and in vivo pharmacokinetics in Sprague-Dawley rats. The thin-film hydration is the most appropriate method of the three methods because of its high loading content. The loaded micelles exhibited a sustained release behaviour up to 48 h. Following intraperitoneal administration (9 mg/kg), VP loaded micelles provided significantly higher (335%) AUC(area under concentration-time) compared to VP injection. And also increased the mean residence time [MRT(0-t)] and elimination half-life (t1/2z). There were obviously two peaks at 2 h and 9 h in VP loaded micelles concentration-time profile. In summary, these data demonstrated that poly mPEG-PLA micelles can efficiently sustain VP concentrations in plasma for 36 h, thus apprehending polymeric micelles suitability as poor aqueous solubility drug carriers.

description: In the spring of 2018, we studied the foraging ecology of the Black-capped Petrel. The goal of this project was to gather fine-scale data on individual movements of Black-capped Petrels breeding in the Sierra de Bahoruco, Dominican Republic. Our objective was to use GPS tracking devices to identify the foraging behavior and the locations and environmental characteristics of foraging areas of breeding Black-capped Petrels in the Caribbean Sea. We provide results from the deployment of nine remote-download GPS loggers on breeding Black-capped Petrels from Sierra de Bahoruco during April 2018.

description: 1. This study examined the transcriptomic profiles of contour and flight feather follicles from two duck breeds to determine the molecular network and the candidate genes associated with contour and flight feather morphogenesis. 2. High-throughput RNA sequencing was performed to compare differences in feather follicles between contour and flight feathers in two duck breeds (Heiwu and Nonghua duck). 3. Comparing the contour feather follicles with flight feather follicles, 4,757 and 4,820 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in Heiwu and Nonghua duck respectively. Weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to construct a gene co-expression network of all DEGs and identify the key modules and hub genes associated with feather morphogenesis. 4. Two key modules were enriched in many pathways involved in feather morphogenesis, such as the Wnt signalling pathway, anatomical structure morphogenesis, and focal adhesion. The CCNA2, TTK, NUF2, ECT2 and INCENP (in one module), and PRSS23, LAMC1, IGFBP3, SHISA5, and APLP2 (in another module) may be essential candidate genes for influencing feather morphology. Moreover, seven transcription factors (TFs) (UBP1, MBD2, ZNF512B, SMAD1, CAPN15, JDP2, KLF10, and MEF2A) were predicted to regulate the essential genes that contribute to feather morphogenesis. 5. This work demonstrated gene expression changes of contour and flight feather follicles and is beneficial for further understanding of the complex structure of feathers.

Non-mean-field effects in systems with long-range forces in competition

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We investigate the canonical equilibrium of systems with long-range forces in competition. These forces create a modulation in the interaction potential and modulated phases appear at the system scale. The structure of these phases differentiate this system from monotonic potentials, where only the mean-field and disordered phases exist. With increasing temperature, the system switches from one ordered phase to another through a first-order phase transition. Both mean-field and modulated phases may be stable, even at zero temperature, and the long-range nature of the interaction will lead to metastability characterized by extremely long time scales.
