CDK4/MERCs/PINK1 Axis Drives PFOA/HFPO‐TA‐Induced Cardiac Senescence via Mitophagy Defect and cGAS‐STING Activation: In Vitro Amelioration by Cycloastragenol

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study demonstrated that PFOA and HFPO‐TA exposure suppressed CDK4, disrupted MERCs and impaired PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy, thereby accelerating cardiac senescence, whereas CAG effectively reversed these pathological changes in vitro. Our findings identify CDK4 as a critical regulator bridging mitophagy defects and cardiac senescence ...

Rhizodeposition Drives One Third of Belowground Carbon Input in Agroecosystems

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study quantifies photosynthesized C allocation in the plant–soil system across six crop types: barley, wheat, maize, rice, legumes and grasses. It reports C partitioning into shoot respiration, shoot‐C, root‐C, net rhizodeposition and root‐derived CO2, providing standardized percentage averages and GPP‐derived absolute values as a robust baseline ...

Soil pH Amelioration Synergizes Carbon Accrual with Yield Gains Under Organic Substitution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Soil pH shifts towards neutrality in both acidic and alkaline soils under organic substitution. A global synthesis links pH amelioration to soil organic carbon accrual through enhanced microbial biomass after accounting for added organic carbon and its interaction with pH. This pH amelioration‐shared soil organic carbon accrual accounts for 5.1–8.6% of
