Bio-optical trends of seas around Turkey: An assessment of the spatial and temporal variability

Oceanologia, 2018
Summary: Until present, bio-optical characteristics and their variations in the eastern Mediterranean and Black Sea have rarely been studied. In order to characterize the basic features of bio-optical variables found in the seas surrounding Turkey ...

Transposable Element–Driven PIEZO Mutation Enhances Locust Flight in Plateau Hypoxia

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Why transposable elements (TEs) persisted or expanded in genomes remains a mystery. Using integrated analysis of TE macro‐ and microevolution in locusts, our results showed that thousands of TE insertions promoted widespread adaptive variation. Subfamilies of candidate adaptive TEs amplified and reshaped species‐level genomic architecture.

Ahcy Acts as an Effector of Hnf4a‐Driven Super‐Enhancer Activation to Alleviate MASLD During Intermittent Fasting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Our study identifies an Hnf4a‐driven super‐enhancer of hepatic Ahcy that mediates the protective effects of intermittent fasting against MASLD. Disruption of the Ahcy super‐enhancer reduces Ahcy expression and exacerbates lipid accumulation. This pathway prevents aberrant promoter hypermethylation by maintaining the SAM/SAH balance, as exemplified by ...

B Cells are Activated via a Nanoporous Interface that Stabilizes Microvilli and Engages Mechanosensitive Ion Channels

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
B cells can be activated independently of antigen recognition via mechanical stimulation through nanoporous substrates. Exposure to such substrates induced B cell microvilli extension into the pores, intracellular Ca2+ signaling, phosphorylation of signaling proteins, and CD69 expression.

Self‐Sustaining Hybrid Passive Cooler Enabling Highly Effective Thermal Management for Outdoor Electronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innovative hybrid passive cooler integrates a porous radiative coating and an atmospheric moisture‐harvesting hydrogel within a melamine sponge skeleton, synergizing radiative cooling, sensible‐heat absorption, and latent‐heat evaporation. It maintains an average 8.3°C sub‐ambient cooling under sunlight and a maximum ∼42.4°C drop under 2000 W·m−2 ...

The CXCL5/CXCR2 Axis Attenuates Ferroptosis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Through the Positive Feedback Loop Between PTGS2 Transcriptional Activation and Neutrophil Recruitment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The CXCL5/CXCR2 axis directly inhibits ferroptosis in ICC cells by activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 pathway. Meanwhile, the CXCL5/CXCR2 axis recruits N2 TANs, and the activated PTGS2 promotes the secretion of TNF‐α from the recruited N2 TANs via the CCL2/CCL7/CCR2 pathway, thereby activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 axis and forming a positive feedback loop, which ...

Unravelling the Distinct Phenotype and Mechanosensitive Properties of Different Tendon Cell Populations

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Tendon interfascicular and fascicular matrix cells are isolated and cultured, revealing distinct phenotypes and mechanosensitive responses. Interfascicular matrix cells exhibit marked stiffness‐dependent phenotypic plasticity, whereas fascicular matrix cells remain comparatively stable.
