Gut Microbiota Regulates Systemic Inflammatory Response and Compensatory Anti‐Inflammatory Response Syndromes by Targeting PF4+ Macrophages in Acute Pancreatitis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Acute pancreatitis (AP) begins with pancreatic local inflammation, leading to the onset of systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS), followed by compensatory anti‐inflammatory response syndrome (CARS), which causes immune paralysis and higher mortality rate.

Physics of the Soil Medium OrganizationPart 2: Pedostructure Characterization through Measurement and Modeling of the Soil Moisture Characteristic Curves

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science, 2014
Accurate measurement of the two soil moisture characteristic curves, namely, water retention curve (WRC) and soil shrinkage curve (SSC) is fundamental for the physical modeling of hydrostructural processes in vadose zone.

Nineteenth Canadian Geotechnical Colloquium: The soil-water characteristic curve: a historical perspective

open access: yes, 1998
The constitutive relationship between water content or degree of saturation and suction is called the soil-water characteristic curve. The soil-water characteristic curve provides a conceptual framework in which the behavior of unsaturated soils can be ...

Effects of organic content on soil-water characteristic curve and soil shrinkage

open access: yes, 2021
Organic matters commonly exist in the subsoil within the tree rooting zones. The organic content of soil has been known to affect soil properties. In this study, the soil organic contents at various locations around trees were investigated and found to ...

Climate Change Threatens Micronutrient Density of European Winter Wheat

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Micronutrients are vital for human health. Wheat is a major staple crop and a significant source of minerals and B‐vitamins. The impact of climate change on their content remains largely unknown. We evaluated micronutrient levels in European winter wheat grown under historical and projected climate conditions. Our findings indicate that future climates

Zinc Exposure Causes Disulfidptosis to Induce Miscarriage by Up‐Regulating GATA1/METTL1/SLC7A11 Axis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Zn exposure up‐regulates GATA1, promoting GATA1‐mediated METTL1 and SLC7A11 transcription. It also enhances METTL1‐mediated m7G modification on SLC7A11 mRNA, increasing SLC7A11 mRNA stability. Ultimately, Zn exposure up‐regulates SLC7A11 at both transcriptional and post‐transcriptional levels, causing disulfidptosis. Knockdown of murine Slc7a11, Gata1,

Experimental study on soil-water characteristic curve of expensive soil considering net normal stress

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
The expansive soil is a kind of special soil with swell-shrinking, fractured and over-consolidated properties. In engineering construction, the expansive soil is generally under unsaturated state and complex applied stress environment. It is practical to

Comparative Analysis of Soil-Water Characteristic Curve in Fractal and Empirical Models

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2020
The fitting analysis of soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) is the foundation of engineering properties of unsaturated soils. The purpose of this paper is to explore the differences of fitting effects between different fractal and empirical models as ...

Evaluating dual porosity of pelletized diatomaceous earth using bimodal soil-water characteristic curve functions

open access: yes, 2001
Soil-water characteristic curve data for specimens containing either ~1 mm or ~2 mm diameter pellets of processed diatomaceous earth are measured using a variety of methods (Tempe cell, pressure plate, filter paper, and chilled-mirror psychrometer). The

Prediction of the Soil–Water Retention Curve of Loess Using the Pore Data from the Mercury Intrusion Technique

open access: yes, 2023
The soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) is a crucial input parameter for describing the distribution of soil moisture and water movement in various environmental and geotechnical challenges. It is widely recognized that the SWCC is controlled by
