title: Supplementary Material for: Associations between Genetic Variants in the <i>ACE</i>, <i>AGT</i>, <i>AGTR1</i> and <i>AGTR2</i> Genes and Renal Function in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis

description: <i>Background/Aims:</i> Some studies suggest that polymorphisms in angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE), angiotensinogen (AGT), angiotensin II type I receptor (AGTR1) and angiotensin II type II receptor (AGTR2) genes may contribute to renal function variation. <i>Methods:</i> Genotyping for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these candidate genes was performed in 2,847 participants from four racial/ethnic groups (African American, Chinese, White and Hispanic) without known cardiovascular disease in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. SNP and haplotype analyses were performed to determine associations between genotypes and cross-sectional renal function measurements, including urine albumin excretion (UAE) and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) using serum creatinine and cystatin C. <i>Results:</i> Twenty-four ACE SNPs, 10 AGT SNPs, 15 AGTR1 SNPs and 6 AGTR2 SNPs were typed successfully. After adjusting for ancestry, age and gender, 3 SNPs (AGT M235T, AGT rs2148582 and AGTR1 rs2131127) showed associations with an empiric p value &lt;0.05 with the same phenotype in multiple racial/ethnic groups, suggesting replication. The AGT M235T SNP has been shown previously to be associated with diabetic and hypertensive nephropathy.<i> Conclusions:</i> These data suggest that genetic polymorphisms in the renin-angiotensin system are associated with renal phenotypes in the general population, but that many associations differ across racial/ethnic groups.

title: OpenPCR and Thermo PCR Sprint Thermal Cyclers testing

description: Included are both raw (*.txt) and manipulated (*.xls) data files. Images enclosed were taken from the excel data files. Each machine (OpenPCR and Thermo PCR Sprint) was run twice with a program designed to create PCR fragments of a custom plasmid called pALS (developed by the KochLab and ordered through DNA 2.0). One run was measured with a temperature probe in water, and the second run was measured with the temperature probe in mineral oil. The temperatures were recorded using software and equipment developed by TE Tech. The PCR programs are as follows: Thermo: Melt @ 95; Anneal @ 52; Extend @ 69 OpenPCR: Melt @ 93; Anneal @ 52; Extend @ 69 Notice that for PCR Sprint, programmed T does not match recorded T. OpenPCR programmed T is actually very close to recorded T.

title: Composition of Raw and Roasted Runner, Spanish and Valencia Market Type Peanuts.

description: Spanish, Valencia, and runner are three peanut market-types grown in the U.S. These market-types have distinct physical and chemical profiles that can affect flavor and industry uses. The effects of market-type and roast treatment (raw/roasted) were evaluated to determine the physical and chemical differences between raw (skin removed) and dry roasted seeds of various sizes of Spanish, Valencia, and runner-types. Peanuts were roasted to a Hunter Lab value of L = 48±1 to minimize variation due to roasting. Samples were analyzed for seed weight, moisture content, water activity, total oil, fatty acid profiles, tocopherols, protein, sugars, and free amino acids. On average, runner-types had the largest seed weight relative to Spanish and Valencia seeds. Roasting significantly affected moisture content and water activity in the samples. Total oil ranged from 49.66-55.63% with the runner samples having the highest content. Oleic, palmitic, and linoleic fatty acids were the most abundant in the samples and significantly differed between market-types with ranges between 54.74-82.65%, 5.82-9.04%, and 2.63-3.06% respectively. Alpha and gamma were the major tocopherols found and samples were discriminated by market-type for alpha, beta, and gamma. The Valencia-types had the highest protein amount compared to runner and Spanish-types. Sucrose was the major sugar quantified, but market-type and roasting had no effect on the content. Glucose and fructose levels significantly decreased after roasting. Several free amino acids were differentiated by market-type, but glutamic acid and phenylalanine were the most abundant in all the samples. Roasting demonstrated a significant effect on several free amino acids. The data set is the numerical data from all the chemical and physical analyses.

title: Rodrigues Island Basemap Data

description: Access to accurate, current, and precise geographic data are increasingly becoming important. However, required geographic data are often either not available, or not of sufficient quality. Numerous remote sensing techniques are available to users to derive data for a given area. However, these techniques are not always done with a known accuracy rate in mind. Similarly, geospatial methods are not always evaluated for accuracy and precision. Often each method relies on numerous other methods to be completed, introducing errors at any stage. As such, error propagation can become problematic if not accounted for. Aim was at testing the suitability of a combination of open and free methods employed throughout to provide users with geospatial dataset at a known accuracy and scale for an area where the creation of such a dataset would be difficult to obtain due to its general inaccessible geographic location. 

The data includes all components of a comprehensive basemap, these symbolized basemaps have also been included within this upload. The data is made avialable as feature classes within a file geodatabase which can be opened within a GIS based software.

title: Supplementary Material for: Dietary Supplementation with Lactic Acid Bacteria Attenuates the Development of Atopic Dermatitis-Like Skin Lesions in NC/Nga Mice in a Strain-Dependent Manner

description: <i>Background:</i> Dietary supplementation with lactic acid bacteria (LAB) is a potential approach to the prevention and manipulation of allergic diseases such as atopic dermatitis (AD). However, the influence of different bacterial strains and their immunomodulating capacities is still largely unknown. <i>Methods:</i> AD-like skin lesions were induced by sensitization to and repeated challenges with picrylchloride in the Th2-skewed NC/Nga mouse strain. The effects of LAB supplementation were assessed over time by monitoring clinical scores and plasma IgE levels. In some cases, mast cell infiltration, cutaneous hypersensitivity responses and cytokine mRNA expression in auricles were also examined. Additionally, cytokine production in vitro and cytokine mRNA accumulation in major lymphoid tissues were measured, comparing <i>Lactobacillus paracasei</i> KW3110 with <i>L. rhamnosus</i> GG (LGG). <i>Results:</i> Supplementation with KW3110 significantly reduced the development of AD-like skin lesions, accompanied by less mast cell infiltration and lower plasma IgE levels. KW3110 also suppressed immediate hypersensitivity reactions and IL-4 mRNA expression in the auricles. These preventive effects sustained when supplementation was terminated; moreover, inhibitory effects were also observed even when supplementation was initiated after the onset of symptoms. In accordance with its effects on IL-12 and IL-4 production in vitro, KW3110 prevented the emergence of clinical symptoms more effectively than LGG in vivo. <i>Conclusions:</i> Supplementation with KW3110 significantly attenuated the onset and exacerbation of AD-like symptoms in NC/Nga mice. The effects were more prominent than those obtained with LGG, suggesting the importance of differences between LAB strains and their immunomodulating capacity.

title: Erratum: Blocking Type I Interferon (IFN) Signaling Impairs Antigen Responsiveness of Circulating Lymphocytes and Alters Their Homing to Lymphoid Organs: Protective Role of Type I IFN

description: Background: We recently demonstrated that type I Interferon (IFN) rescues <i>in vitro</i>, human B-lymphocytes from apoptosis via PI3Kδ/Akt, Rho-A, NFĸB and Bcl-2/BclXL. In the present study we extended our work to clarify, <i>in vivo</i>, the role of type I IFN signalling on the circulating and lymphoid organs homing lymphocytes. Methodology: Two groups of mice 13 in each were set: type I IFN signalling blocked mice injected with anti-IFNAR1 antagonist antibody (10 mg/kg body weight) once/day for up to 20 days, and control group were injected with vehicle alone. Results: Flow cytometry analysis to monitor the blood lymphocyte phenotype and proliferation have shown a significant decrease in CD45R/CD220<sup>+</sup> B cells, CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> T cells in treated animals. Furthermore, the proliferative capacities of these lymphocyte subsets were significantly decreased in treated animals compared to those of control mice. Marked reduction in the plasma levels of IL-2 and IL-7 (cytokines important for the development of T and B cells) but not of IL-6 or IL-10 was observed in treated mice and this may a cause for emergence decrease in B and T cell numbers. Immunohistochemical studies have further shown a marked reduction in the numbers of CD20<sup>+</sup> B cells in spleen and Peyer’s patches and CD3<sup>+</sup> T cells in thymus of treated animals. Moreover, electron microscopy examinations have revealed a loss of lymphocytes with characteristic features of apoptosis. Conclusion: Our data confirmed that the <i>in vivo</i> inhibition of type I IFN signaling induce decrease in the numbers and defective functions of circulating and lymphoid organs homing lymphocytes providing a strong evidence for the protective effects of type 1 IFNs (IFN-α/ β) on B and T lymphocytes.

description: Using data from 2010–2022, we find a significant negative relationship between ESG performance and corporate bond credit spreads in China, robust to multiple tests. Addressing endogeneity with a quasi-natural experiment—the 2017 pilot green finance reform approved by the China State Council—confirms these results. Further, decomposing credit spreads into liquidity and default components reveals that ESG performance primarily lowers default spreads, with no significant impact on liquidity spreads. Lastly, our analysis suggests that improved ESG quality reduces default risk by enhancing operational stability and mitigating idiosyncratic risk.<b>Keywords: </b>ESG; Corporate bond; Credit spread; Green finance reform

title: 1H NMR-Based Metabolomics Reveals Metabolic Changes in the Hippocampus of MPTP-induced Mice

description: Cognitive impairment is a crucial non-motor symptom in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). Research carried out in recent years has indicated an association between hippocampus and cognitive deficits in PD patients with or without dementia. However, the molecular mechanism is still unclear. Metabolites including neurotransmitters modulated lots of biological functions in central nervous system. The influence of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), which could lead to Parkinsonism in non-human primate and mice, on hippocampal metabolites is still unclear. In this study, HE staining and <sup>1</sup>H NMR were used to assess the neuronal morphology and metabolite levels in the hippocampus of MPTP-injected mice on the 1, 7, 21, and 35. Our data revealed that MPTP cannot result in any influence on the neuronal morphology in the hippocampus of mice injected with MPTP. Concentrations of Lactate (Lac), Alanine (Ala), Glutamate (Glu), Glycine (Gly), Creatine (Cr), Taurine (Tau), Choline (Cho) and Phosphocholine (P-Cho) were detected in the hippocampus using <sup>1</sup>H NMR. On the day 1, increases of all these metabolite levels were induced by MPTP-treatment, and concentrations of Lac, Cr, Glu, Cho, and P-Cho were increased in the hippocampus in the day 7. However, only P-Cho level was boosted in the hippocampus of MPTP-injected mice in the day 21. At last, a higher level of Cr was detected in the MPTP group in the day 35. Our results indicated that metabolic changes appeared in the day 1 after the last injection of MPTP prior to other symptoms of rodent model. These data suggested that metabolic dysfunction might be a good marker for the diagnosis of PD.

title: tree census data+abiotic variables+biotic variables.xlsx

description: The study was carried out in the temperate forest in Jiaohe, Jilin Province, in northeastern China. This study uses data from a 42 ha (840 × 500 m2) forest dynamics plot (hereafter referred to as the Jiaohe forest plot; 43°57.524′–43°58.042′N, 127°44.111′–127°44.667 E), established in the summer of 2010, according to the standard of the Center of Tropical Forest Science (CTFS; http://www.ctfs.si.edu/). All trees and shrubs with ≥ 1 cm diameter at breast height (dbh) in the Jiaohe forest plot were mapped, identified to species, and measured for the first time in the summer of 2010. A second census was carried out in the summer of 2015. The data set<i> </i>contains the tree census data, the status in 2015 (A,alive and D, dead), the initial size (dbh) in 2010, conspecific and heterospecific tree neighbor density within a given radius (5, 10, 15 or 20 m), as well as the soil properties and topography.

title: Cryptic species inside the genus <i>Hariotina</i> (Scenedesmaceae, Sphaeropleales), with descriptions of four new species in this genus

description: The genus <i>Hariotina</i> was established in 1889 based on the type species <i>Hariotina reticulata</i>. This species was then transferred to <i>Coelastrum</i> by Senn (1899). The genus <i>Hariotina</i> was eventually restored by Hegewald <i>et al</i>. (2002) based on morphological characteristics. Species of <i>Hariotina</i> are ubiquitous in fresh water, especially in some tropical and subtropical areas. The taxonomic position of the genus is now considered to be within the family Scenedesmaceae. However, until now, there was an insufficient understanding of the molecular diversity within this genus, and the related reference sequences in the database were inadequate to resolve the species taxonomy. In this study, 20 strains of <i>Hariotina</i> were identified and successfully cultured in the laboratory. We used a combined approach, joining molecular and morphological analyses, to determine their taxonomic relationships and phylogenetic positions. The molecular analyses based on 18S rDNA+ITS sequences and the <i>tuf</i>A gene resolved the analysed strains into at least six species, including the known species <i>H. reticulata</i> and <i>H. polychorda</i> and four new species herein described, i.e. <i>H. hainanensis</i> sp. nov., <i>H. compacta</i> sp. nov., <i>H. guilinensis</i> sp. nov. and <i>H. laxa</i> sp. nov. The genus <i>Hariotina</i> was confirmed in the Scenedesmaceae as a monophyletic clade that was closely related to the genus <i>Coelastrum</i> in <i>tuf</i>A gene phylogeny. Strains with <i>H. reticulata</i> morphotype were found to be located on two different branches, and formed sister relationships with the other two morphologically distinct species. In addition, the topology was supported by all three DNA markers. The congruence between the phylogeny and the classical taxonomic system based on morphological criteria for this taxon is discussed.

title: A qualitative pilot study exploring clients’ and health-care professionals’ experiences with aquatic therapy post-stroke in Ontario, Canada

description: Aquatic therapy is beneficial for people post-stroke, as it improves their physical function, well-being, and quality of life. There is a lack of description of users’ experiences and perspectives toward aquatic therapy that could elucidate contextual factors for aquatic therapy implementation. To explore participants’ experiences with aquatic therapy post-stroke as part of a participatory design project to develop an education tool-kit to address the users’ needs for aquatic therapy post-stroke. A qualitative descriptive study was employed using a purposive sampling. Letters were sent to stroke and aquatic therapy organizations. Individual interviews were conducted either by phone or Zoom with nine participants in the chronic phase of stroke and 14 health-care professionals. All transcripts were coded and analyzed independently by two researchers. Inductive thematic analysis was used to identify the main themes. Health-care professionals practiced aquatic therapy in rehabilitation hospitals (<i>N</i> = 7), community centers (<i>N</i> = 8) and private clinics (<i>N</i> = 3). From the interviews, two organizing themes were identified: (1) Importance of aquatic therapy (e.g. experiences, benefits, and program approaches); and (2) Aquatic therapy education (e.g. knowledge gaps, sources of learning and communication). Health-care professionals and clients reported numerous benefits of aquatic therapy post-stroke including, but not limited to, improvements in mobility, balance, wellbeing, and socialization. Lack of formal and informal education and communication as participants’ transition from rehab to community were viewed as barriers to aquatic therapy use post-stroke. Developing education material and communication strategies may improve the uptake of aquatic therapy post-stroke.

title: Supplementary Material for: The reduced gray matter volume and functional connectivity of the cerebellum in T2DM with high insulin resistance

description: Introduction: Insulin resistance is widely thought to be a critical feature in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and there is significant evidence indicating a higher abundance of insulin receptors in the human cerebellum than cerebrum. However, the specific structural or functional changes in the cerebellum related to T2DM remain unclear, and the association between cerebellar alterations, insulin resistance, cognition, and emotion is yet to be determined. 
Methods: We investigated neuropsychological performance, structural, and functional changes in specific cerebellar subregions in 43 T2DM patients with high insulin resistance (T2DM-highIR), 72 T2DM patients with low insulin resistance (T2DM-lowIR), and 50 controls. Furthermore, the correlation and stepwise multiple linear regression analysis were performed. 
Results: Compared to the controls, T2DM exhibited lower cognitive scores and higher depressive/anxious scores. Furthermore, T2DM-highIR patients showed reduced gray matter volume (GMV) in the right cerebellar lobules VIIb, Crus I/II, T2DM showed reduced GMV in left lobules I-IV compared to controls. Additionally, functional connectivity decrease was observed between the right lobules I-V and orbital part of the superior frontal gyrus in T2DM-highIR compared to both T2DM-lowIR and controls. Notably, there were negative correlations between the GMV of the lobules VIIb, Crus I/II and updated homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance, and positive correlation with executive/visuospatial performance in T2DM patients. 
Conclusions: These results suggest that the cerebellar lobules VIIb, Crus I/II represent vulnerable brain regions in the context of insulin resistance. Overall, this study offers new insights into the neuropathophysiological mechanisms of brain impairment in patients with T2DM.
