Integrating analyzing water retention and vulnerability on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for regional water security and sustainable development

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) Study focus: With the acceleration of population and economic growth, coupled with increasing resource demands, the uncertainty of water retention capabilities has risen, along with heightened risks of water ...

Water-spraying forced ventilation during holding improves the water holding capacity, impedance, and microstructure of breast meat from summer-transported broiler chickens

Poultry Science, 2020
Heat stress is a broiler welfare issue and economic deficit to the broiler industry. Water atomizing with three-dimensional forced ventilation, a holding treatment after summer transport for broiler, has been proved to significantly improve water holding

Supplementation with specific micronutrients reduces the adverse effects of combined oral contraceptive treatment [PDF]

International Journal of Medical Device and Adjuvant Treatments, 2019
Objective: Discontinuation and poor compliance are leading causes of oral contraception failure. Because of possible adverse effects that impact their quality of life, women skip their daily dose of contraceptive, or opt for different contraception ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
