Apr 29, 2022Hybrid Electro-biosystem Upcycles Carbon Dioxide into Energy-rich Long-chain CompoundsA joint research team led by Prof. XIA Chuan from the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China, Prof. YU Tao from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academ... Artificial upcycling of carbon dioxide (CO2) into value-added products in a sustainable manner represents an opportunity to tackle environmental issues and realize a circular economy.However, compa... -
Apr 19, 2022Researcher Propose New Methodology for Cerebrovascular Dysregulation in Patients with GliomaResearchers identified grade-specific cerebrovascular dysregulation in the tumor as well as the uninvolved brain tissue for the patients, based on an approach of time-shifted fMRI Glioma is the most frequently identified intracranial tumor in adults. Mapping the cerebrovascular network remodeling at the macroscopic level may provide an alternative approach to assess hemodyna... -
Apr 12, 2022Researchers Propose Fine Perceptive GANs for Brain MR Image Super-ResolutionThe result was published in the IEEE Transaction of Neural Network and Learning Systems. The brain magnetic resonance images can present the anatomical information noninvasively for more accurate diagnosis and exploration of brain. However, constrained by the physical properties, contr... -
Apr 12, 2022Researchers Develop New Strategy for Genetically Engineering Stem CellsThis study adapted a stem cell-mediated gene therapy (MSC-GT) strategy and applied it in bone regeneration, in which BMP2 genetically modified MSCs function as cellular factories. Stem cell therapy has been widely applied for tissue regeneration. Recently, stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-Exo) have attracted significant interest for their “cell-free” therapies. Therefore, i... -
Apr 01, 2022C/EBPβ/AEP Pathway Dictates Both Alzheimer's Disease and Longevity: StudyThis finding expands this pathway's function beyond the control of AD pathologies to the regulation of life span. Cognitive decline during normal aging is exacerbated in neurodegenerative disease including Alzheimer's disease (AD). While it is not yet known exactly what causes AD, there are a number of risk fa... -
Mar 29, 2022Researchers Reveal VTA→BLA Dopamine Neurons Selectively Control Anxiety-Related Behaviors in Singular Anxiety or Comorbid Anxiety-Depression ConditionsThis study provides new insight into the functional role of VTA→BLA dopamine neurons in selective regulation of anxiety-related behaviors, and provides important information for developing a brain... Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric illnesses, afflicting 273 million people worldwide. A substantial number of patients suffering from anxiety disorders also display depressive-like ... -
Mar 23, 2022Researchers Reveal Neuronal Mechanism Controlling Anxiety-Like Behavior and Energy ExpenditureResearchers found enhanced burst firing in the dmVMH after chronic stress, and the strength of the burst firing was correlated with anxiety-like behavior. Optogenetically evoked burst firing in dmV... Stress responses including physiological and behavioral changes facilitate threat avoidance. Long-term stress affects normal brain function and induces both anxiety and glucose or lipid metabolism ... -
Mar 21, 2022Sea-Trial Research on Natural Product-Based Antifouling Paint Applied to Underwater Sensor Housing Materials"It is worth noting that the CPT-based paint also has great potential for other artificial submerged structures in the marine environment, such as ship hulls, oil platforms and aquaculture faciliti... Biofouling is a common challenge for underwater sensors, especially for long-term in situ monitoring in marine environments. Biofouling on in situ sensor surfaces can shorten their operating lifeti...
