Domain‐Aware Implicit Network for Arbitrary‐Scale Remote Sensing Image Super‐Resolution

Advanced Intelligent Discovery, EarlyView.
Although existing arbitrary‐scale image super‐resolution methods are flexible to reconstruct images with arbitrary scales, the characteristic of training distribution is neglected that there exists domain shift between samples of various scales. In this work, a Domain‐Aware Implicit Network (DAIN) is proposed to handle it from the perspective of domain

Tree shrew model of early diabetic retinopathy reveals microvascular dysfunction and identifies phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 as a novel therapeutic target

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We developed an animal model of early diabetic retinopathy (DR) in the tree shrew by feeding a high‐fat and high‐sugar diet in combination with STZ. Physiological and biochemical index detection, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and transmission electron microscopy were performed to examine DR.

Molecular mechanism of ischemic postconditioning in promoting diabetic ischemic brain injury repair via the microRNA‐34a–BDNF–SIX3 signaling axis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Diabetes combined with ischemic stroke (DMIS) exacerbates brain infarct size and neuronal damage compared to nondiabetic ischemic stroke (IS). This study reveals that microRNA‐34a (miR‐34a) plays a key role in DMIS pathogenesis: miR‐34a directly targets and suppresses brain‐derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and Sine oculis homeobox 3 (SIX3), promoting

A taxonomic review of Ptilomera from China, with descriptions of two new species (Hemiptera: Heteroptera: Gerridae)

European Journal of Entomology
The species of Ptilomera Amyot & Serville, 1843 from China are reviewed. Two new species, Ptilomera acutidentata sp. n. and Ptilomera valida sp. n., are described from Yunnan, China. Diagnoses and new distribution records are provided for four previously

Age and gender effects on echocardiographic and histopathological cardiac phenotypes in healthy adult mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study investigated the impact of age and sex on cardiac phenotypes in healthy adult C57BL/6J mice using echocardiography and histopathological analyses. Findings revealed that female mice demonstrated more pronounced global cardiac chamber dilation during aging.

Astrocytic Mitochondria Transplantation Rescues Neuron Loss and Dendritic Injuries in Acute Cerebral Ischemic Stroke Mouse Model by Flexibly Regulating Mitochondria Dynamics

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

The Effect of Demineralization on Coal Functional Group Pyrolysis: Rank‐Dependent Dual Mechanisms of Structural Reorganization and Mineral Catalysis

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coal pyrolysis, as a key thermochemical conversion process, is significantly influenced by inherent minerals, yet their role across different coal ranks remains inadequately understood. This study investigates the effect of acid‐washing (demineralization) on the thermal decomposition of six functional groups (aliphatic C–H, aromatic C–H/C=C, C=

Establishment of Interspecies Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer and Transgene‐Free Inducible Pluripotent Stem Cells for Versatile Conservation of the Germplasm Resource of Wild Boar

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Conserving genetic material and even increasing genetic diversity is critical. To conduct the conservation of wild boar germplasm resources, we have successfully obtained healthy cloned wild boars for the first time using interspecies somatic cell nuclear transfer and established transgene‐free iPSCs that can be used to conduct iterative rounds of gene
