Food Webs are one of a number of critical ecosystem functions believed to be important in sustaining patterns of diversity along with connectivity and nutrient cycling. Improved understanding of the influence of flow on food webs will enable better management of environmental flows within the Basin. Flow has three major functions in riverine systems; disturbance acting to influence community composition and dynamics, providing cues for major life-history events, and as an influence on energetics through transferring materials longitudinally along the river, laterally between the river and its margins, and vertically between the sediment and the water column. In the Murray-Darling Basin, the role of flow in disturbance dynamics and as a trigger of life histo- ry events is reasonably well known. What is much less clear is the role of flow in generating the resources that are needed to support the growth and survival of key life history stages in order to sustain breeding populations. There have now been numerous instances where bird breeding, for example, has been triggered by a flow event, but where the birds have either gathered and then not nested, or nested and failed to raise chicks to independence. Similarly, even where fish breeding is initiated by a flow event, we have limited evidence that the fish larvae have access to the food needed to allow them to grow to become adults. The food web theme has identified the relationship between environmental flows and the provi- sion of food resources across life stages of plants and animals to be a critical knowledge gap in the Murray Darling Basin. The purpose of the food-web theme is to improve our understanding of the effects of environ- mental flows on food webs that support waterbird and fish recruitment. In particular, the theme will focus on the base of the food web to clarify the source of organic matter that supports the production of food. The new knowledge generated will be incorporated into models that will improve manager’s ca- pacity to predict food web responses to flows in terms of the amount of food available to target species or life stages.

Keystone Symposia | Poster Abstracts Ubiquitin Biology and Disease (J6) Current as of December, 01, 2023 2-Deoxy-D-ribose induces ferroptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells via ubiquitin- proteasome system-mediated xCT protein degradation Koh, Gwanpyo Jeju National University Hospital Ferroptosis is a novel form of cell death triggered by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation. Recent ﬁndings suggest that inhibiting system χc- induces ferroptosis by reducing intracellular cystine levels, and that ferroptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells (RTECs) contributes to acute kidney injury (AKI) and diabetic nephropathy. Moreover, 2-deoxy-D-ribose (dRib) has been shown to inhibit cystine uptake through xCT, the functional unit of system χc-, in β-cells. This study aimed to investigate if dRib induces ferroptosis in RTECs and identify the underlying mechanisms. dRib treatment reduced cystine uptake and glutathione (GSH) content, and increased intracellular levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), lipid reactive oxygen species (ROS), and cell death in both NRK-52E cells and primary cultured RTECs. However, treatment with inhibitors of ferroptosis, such as deferoxamine (DFO), ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), and liproxstatin-1 (Lip-1), counteracted the eﬀects of dRib on GSH, MDA, 4-HNE, and lipid ROS levels, as well as cell death. Additionally, 2- mercaptoethanol (2-ME) treatment or xCT gene overexpression protected against dRib-induced changes. Moreover, transmission electron microscopy revealed dRib-induced mitochondrial shrinkage, decrease in cristae number, and outer membrane rupture. Furthermore, dRib treatment upregulated the expression of genes associated with ferroptosis, and downregulated xCT and GPX4 protein expression. The decrease in xCT protein caused by dRib was consistently observed even when treated with the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide. However, treatment with the proteasome inhibitor MG132 reversed the dRib-induced decrease in xCT protein expression, but did not reverse the dRib-induced decrease in GPX4 protein expression. Additionally, dRib increased xCT protein ubiquitination. Additionally, dRib increased xCT protein ubiquitination. Overall, dRib induces ferroptosis in RTECs by degrading xCT protein through UPS, resulting in reduced intracellular cystine uptake. Therefore, targeting the regulation of system χc- through UPS could be a potential therapeutic approach for AKI and diabetic nephropathy. 1 A chemical biology tool kit to study the function of N-glycanase 1 (NGLY1)

1 Using Emotions to Deliver Personal TV Experiences Sasanka Prabhala – User Experience Group, Intel Corporation, Beaverton, OR, USA, (503) 456 1987, Sasanka.v.prabhala@intel.com Michael J. Payne – User Experience Group, Intel Corporation, Beaverton, OR, USA, (503) 456 3419, Michael.j.payne@intel.com Jay Melican – User Experience Group, Intel Corporation, Beaverton, OR, USA, (503) 456 5035, jay.melican@intel.com Abstract The majority of the world-wide population currently turns to their television (TV) sets for news, weather, traffic, sports, movies, TV shows and other entertainment and information. Digital cable and satellite TV are providing people with an immense and growing variety of options for live and on-demand programming. In addition, emerging design, technology and media rights advancements in consumer electronics (CE) are also paving the way for new and innovative set- top boxes (STB) and TVs that bring internet content directly to the TV. While access to this vast array of media is appealing, it also has led (and will increasingly lead) to the alarmingly difficult task of finding personally relevant and desirable content while filtering out the „noise.‟ This paper introduces a novel concept of measuring and inferencing people‟s personality characteristics and emotions, based on their interactions with the TV remote control, in order to create personal, context-rich views into available media options. Conference theme: Modeling Experience Keywords: personality, emotions, TV experiences, media recommendations Problem Statement Majority of the world-wide population is turning to their television (TV) sets for media consumption such as news, weather, traffic, sports, entertainment, etc. This experience is enhanced by the wealth of media available via digital cable and satellite TV, providing people with a variety of options for live and on-demand programming. Emerging design, technology and media rights advancements in consumer electronics (CE) are also paving the way for new and innovative set-top boxes (STB) and TVs that bring internet content directly to the TV.
Understanding Context: The Influence of Graphics on the Emotions of Surface Textures Brian Henson, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds - UK Donald Choo, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds - UK Cathy Barnes, School of Mechanical Engineering, University of Leeds - UK Abstract Designers are increasingly aware of the influences that affect the way people emotionally engage with products. These include previous experiences, society and culture, and the situation in which the product will be used. Whilst recently developed generative techniques usefully provide insight into consumers’ contexts, it remains useful to determine the interaction of product features at a more fundamental level. If one cannot examine the influence of a product feature separately from its broader context, then can one determine the extent to which any particular sensation contributes to the consumers’ emotional engagement? The experiment described in this paper explores the influence of graphic design on peoples’ emotional engagement with surface textures. The semantic differential technique was used to identify adjectives to describe touching transparent surface textures that had been screen printed onto clear acetate and shown against a plain, white background. Then, the same technique was used to characterise peoples’ emotional engagement when looking at ‘smileys’, small graphical representations of faces, or emoticons, depicting various emotions. The first experiment with the surface textures was repeated but with the smileys behind and showing through the surfaces and finally by asking respondents to look at, but not touch, the smileys. Comparison of the principal components of the semantic differential experiments gave an objective evaluation of the influence of the graphics on peoples’ engagement with the surfaces. Whilst the results of the experiment are themselves to some extent context dependent, the experiment demonstrates a process for making decisions about product packaging at a product type or brand level. Keywords: surface texture, Kansei engineering, affective design. Introduction Product designers understand that context affects the feelings that consumers have towards products. A graphic design that attracts consumers to, say, a bottle of shampoo probably would not be suitable for a jar of coffee. The components of context are complex and include the function of the product, the environment of its use, and the personality, attitudes, culture and education of the consumer. Nevertheless, it remains useful to attempt to determine the effects of different components of context on peoples’ emotional engagement with products. This might allow designers in the future to concentrate their efforts on elements of a design that can be demonstrated to have most effect on consumers. And it might allow designers to understand how different elements of designs can be mixed. The colour blue might be right for a particular product, and consumers might like a curvy shape, but there is little literature about whether colour and shape are simply additive.

Collaborative Evaluation of In Silico Predictions for High Throughput Toxicokinetics OBJECTIVES APPROACH MAIN RESULTS IMPACT Abstract 358 This work does not necessarily represent the views or policy of the US EPA. Any mention of tradenames does not constitute endorsement. • In silico predictions along with high throughput toxicokinetic (HTTK) methods are needed as in vivo and in vitro measurements are unavailable for thousands of chemicals in commerce and the environment Risk Exposure Hazard Toxicokinetics • To understand toxicokinetics (chemical absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion by the body) in order to help assess public health risk posed by chemicals 101 Chemicals • This collaborative trial uses 101 chemicals with in vivo measured toxicokinetic (TK) data http://orcid.org/0000-0002-4024-534X • Six different sets of in silico (QSAR) tools for predicting TK were evaluated • Predicted parameters and plasma concentrations (from generic PBTK model) were compared with empirical data • Models generally predicted consistently for in vitro measurements across chemicals; however, accuracies predicted for individual chemicals varied. • When combined with a PBTK model (httk, https://cran.r- project.org/package=httk) to predict plasma concentration, the models performed similarly across all 101 chemicals (CvTdb, https://github.com/USEPA/CompTox-PK-CvTdb) • Multiple QSARs exist that make comparably, and reasonably accurate predictions for in vitro TK parameters. • This will allow risk-based prioritization of many thousands of chemicals without in vitro TK data • For more information, contact: John Wambaugh (wambaugh.john@epa.gov) John Wambaugh1 , Nisha Sipes1, Jon Arnot2, Trevor Brown2, Daniel Dawson1, Sarah Davidson1, Michael Devito1, John DiBella4, Stephen Ferguson3, Rocky Goldsmith1, Chris Grulke1, Richard Judson1, Michael Lawless4, Kamel Mansouri5, Grace Patlewicz1, Ester Papa6, Prachi Pradeep1,7, Alessandro Sangion2, Risa Sayre1, Rogelio Tornero-Velez1, Barbara Wetmore1 1.

2021 Congress of the Schizophrenia International Research Society Psychiatric Symptoms Are Differentially Associated with Verbal Fluency Performance in Patients with Schizophrenia and Affective Disorders Submission ID 3007061 Submission Type Poster Topic Clinical Science Submitter Petar Gabrić Affiliation Philipps University of Marburg, Institute for German Linguistics SUBMISSION DETAILS Research Type Human Subjects Research Poster or Oral Presentation Oral Only Background Despite verbal fluency (VF) being a common task in psychiatric research, there is very little consensus on the nature of VF deficits in psychiatric populations and their implications for our knowledge about cognitive and specifically linguistic functioning in these populations. Previous studies have found that negative symptoms, including alogia, are associated with poorer overall VF production in patients with schizophrenia (SCH), while studies investigating positive symptoms, including formal thought disorder, have yielded mixed results. Because most studies didn’t analyze additional VF measures such as clustering and lexical characteristics, it remains unclear whether the association between negative and positive symptoms and VF performance in patients with schizophrenia reflects abnormalities in linguistic and/or semantic processing or other aspects of cognition. Furthermore, it is uncertain whether these associations are specific to patients with schizophrenia, while the associations with manic and depressive symptoms are understudied. Methods We recruited 58 German-speaking inpatients diagnosed with either schizophrenia (N = 36), bipolar disorder (BD; N = 10), or major depression (DEP; N = 12). All patients were assessed on conventional symptom scales including the SANS/SAPS, HAMD, and YMRS, and were further administered the semantic (SF; animals) and letter (LF; P) fluency tasks (60 s). The following dependent variables were analyzed: correct words, error rate, response latencies, switching rate, cluster size, idiosyncratic word production rate, and word frequency. Results BD produced significantly larger clusters and had significantly higher idiosyncratic word production rates on SF compared to both SCH and DEP, while overall word frequency on SF differentiated between all patient groups. Overall negative symptomatology and specifically alogia were negatively associated with overall performance and positively with between-cluster response latencies on SF. Alogia was not significantly associated with other VF variables. Cluster size and overall word frequency on SF were positively associated with depressive and negatively with manic symptoms, idiosyncratic word production rate on SF was positively associated with manic symptoms, while positive symptoms were only negatively associated with the frequency of the first 1
