| 4 | A novel m6A reader Prrc2a controls oligodendroglial specification and myelination显示文摘While N6-methyladenosine (m6A), the most abundant internal modification in eukaryotic mRNA, is linked to cell differentiation and tissue development, the biological significance of m6A modification in mammalian glial development remains unknown. Here, we identify a novel m6A reader, Prrc2a (Proline rich coiled-coil 2A), which controls oligodendrocyte specification and myelination. Nestin-Cre-mediated knockout of Prrc2a induces significant hypomyelination, decreased lifespan, as well as locomotive and cognitive defects in a mouse model. Further analyses reveal that Prrc2a is involved in oligodendrocyte progenitor cells (OPCs) proliferation and oligodendrocyte fate determination. Accordingly, oligodendroglial-lineage specific deletion of Prrc2a causes a similar phenotype of Nestin-Cre-mediated deletion. Combining transcriptome-wide RNA-seq, m6A-RIP-seq and Prrc2a RIP-seq analysis, we find that Olig2 is a critical downstream target gene of Prrc2a in oligodendrocyte development. Furthermore, Prrc2a stabilizes Olig2 mRNA through binding to a consensus GGACU motif in the Olig2 CDS (coding sequence) in an m6A-dependent manner. Interestingly, we also find that the m6A demethylase, Fto, erases the m6A modification of Olig2 mRNA and promotes its degradation. Together, our results indicate that Prrc2a plays an important role in oligodendrocyte specification through functioning as a novel m6A reader. These findings suggest a new avenue for the development of therapeutic strategies for hypomyelination-related neurological diseases. | Rong Wu Ang Li Baofa Sun Jian-Guang Sun Jinhua Zhang Ting Zhang Yusheng Chen Yujie Xiao Yuhao Gao Qingyang Zhang Jun Ma Xin Yang Yajin Liao Wei-Yi Lai Xiaolong Qi Shukun Wang Yousheng Shu Hai-Lin Wang Fengchao Wang Yun-Gui Yang Zengqiang Yuan | 2019 | Cell Research2019，29，1： | 32 |

| 6 | UV-induced Self-initiated Graft Polymerization of Acrylamide onto Poly(ether ether ketone)显示文摘Photo-grafting of hydrophilic monomer was used to enhance the hydrophilicity of poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) with the aim of extending its applications to biological fields. PEEK sheets were surface modified by grafting of acrylamide(AAm) with ultraviolet(UV) irradiation in the presence or absence of benzophenone(BP). The effects of BP, irradiation time and monomer concentration on the surface wettability of PEEK were investigated. Characteriza tion of modified PEEK using scanning electron microscopy(SEM), energy-disperse spectrometer(EDS) and water contact angle measurements shows that AAm was successfully grafted on PEEK surface both in presence and absence of BP. With the increase in irradiation time and monomer concentration, contact angles decrease to as low as 30°, demonstrating a significant improvement of surface hydrophilicity. In agreement with the decrease in contact angle, under identical conditions, the nitrogen concentration increases, suggesting the increase in grafting degree of the grafting polymerization. This investigation demonstrates a self-initiation of PEEK due to its BP-like structure in the backbone of the polymer. Though the graft polymerization proceeds more readily in the presence of BP, the self-initiated graft polymerization is clearly observed. | CHEN Rui-chao, SUN Hui, LI Ang and XU Guo-zhi College of Materials Science and Mechanical Engineering, National Center for Quality Supervision and Test of Plastic Products, Beijing Technology and Business University, Beijing 100048, P.

| 7 | Stable isotope analysis of water sources for Tamarix laxa in the mega-dunes of the Badain Jaran Desert, China显示文摘The complex interactions in desert ecosystems between functional types and environmental conditions could be reflected by plant water use patterns. However, the mechanisms underlying the water use patterns as well as the water sources of Tamarix laxa in the mega-dunes of the Badain Jaran Desert, China, remain unclear. This study investigated the water sources and water use patterns of T. laxa using the stable oxygen isotope method. The δ^(18)O values of xylem water, soil water in different layers(0–200 cm), rainwater, snow water, lake water, atmospheric water vapor, condensate water, and groundwater were measured. The sources of water used by T. laxa were determined using the IsoSource model. The results indicate that T. laxa mainly relies on soil water. At the beginning of the growing season(in May), the species is primarily dependent on water from the middle soil layer(60–120 cm) and deep soil layer(120–200 cm). However, it mainly absorbs water from the shallow soil layer(0–60 cm) as the rainy season commences. In September, water use of T. laxa reverts to the deep soil layer(120–200 cm). The water use patterns of T. laxa are closely linked with heavy precipitation events and soil water content. These findings reveal the drought resistance mechanisms of T. laxa and are of significance for screening species for ecological restoration. | ZHANG Jinhu WANG Nai'ang NIU Zhenmin SUN Jie DONG Chunyu ZHANG LyuLyu | 2018 | Journal of Arid Land2018，10，6： | 5 |
| 8 | Main issues in research and practice of environmental protection for water conservancy and hydropower projects in China显示文摘In this paper,we generally summarize the main issues in the operational period of water conservancy and hydropower projects in China over the past several decades.First,the adverse impacts of these projects since the technical guidelines were proposed in 2006 are analyzed.Then,combined with projects and experience from 2006 to 2014,the four main issues are summarized:(1) There exist many questions in the design and construction of fishways,which are useful for fish migration,and the migration effects are not as expected.(2) Temperature stratification affecting the downstream fish is the major impact of temperature,and alters fish spawning in the reproduction season.(3)Ecological base flow has been one of the primary questions of the last 30 years in China,the greatest related difficulty being quantification of the amount and flow process necessary to satisfy fish life history.(4) Fish habitat protection and restoration are popular topics in recent years with the development of river ecosystem restoration.Fish habitat loss due to the impacts of dam construction and habitat fragmentation has become more and more serious.These four issues are now the main difficulties in water project management,and interact with one another to bear combined effects on river ecosystems.The issues of eco-hydraulic consideration in the design period are the key factors.Finally,future priorities for research and practice of environmental protection for water conservancy and hydropower projects in China are proposed.The main purpose of this paper is to enhance the scientific research,monitoring,and assessment of operating effectiveness. | Ang Chen Miao Wu Kai-qi Chen Zhi-yu Sun Chen Shen Peng-yuan Wang | 2016 | Water Science and Engineering2016，9，4： | 5 |
| 9 | Cell cycle-related kinase reprograms the liver immune microenvironment to promote cancer metastasis显示文摘The liver is an immunologically tolerant organ and a common metastatic site of multiple cancer types.Although a role for cancer cell invasion programs has been well characterized,whether and how liver-intrinsic factors drive metastatic spread is incompletely understood.Here,we show that aberrantly activated hepatocyte-intrinsic cell cycle-related kinase(CCRK)signaling in chronic liver diseases is critical for cancer metastasis by reprogramming an immunosuppressive microenvironment.Using an inducible liverspecific transgenic model,we found that CCRK overexpression dramatically increased both B16F10 melanoma and MC38 colorectal cancer(CRC)metastasis to the liver,which was highly infiltrated by polymorphonuclear-myeloid-derived suppressor cells(PMNMDSCs)and lacking natural killer T(NKT)cells.Depletion of PMN-MDSCs in CCRK transgenic mice restored NKT cell levels and their interferon gamma production and reduced liver metastasis to 2.7% and 0.7%(metastatic tumor weights)in the melanoma and CRC models,respectively.Mechanistically,CCRK activated nuclear factor-kappa B(NF-κB)signaling to increase the PMN-MDSC trafficking chemokine C-X-C motif ligand 1(CXCL1),which was positively correlated with liver-infiltrating PMN-MDSC levels in CCRK transgenic mice.Accordingly,CRC liver metastasis patients exhibited hyperaaivation of hepatic CCRK/NF-κB/CXCL1 signaling,which was associated with accumulation of PMN-MDSCs and paucity of NKT cells compared to healthy liver transplantation donors.In summary,this study demonstrates that immunosuppressive reprogramming by hepatic CCRK signaling undermines antimetastatic immunosurveillance.Our findings offer new mechanistic insights and therapeutic targets for liver metastasis intervention. | Xuezhen Zeng Jingying Zhou Zhewen Xiong Hanyong Sun Weiqin Yang Myth T.S.Mok Jing Wang Jingqing Li Man Liu Wenshu Tang Yu Feng Hector Kwong-Sang W ang Shun-Wa Tsang King-Lau Chow Philip Chun Yeung John Wong Paul Bo-San Lai Anthony Wing-Hung Chan Ka Fai To Stephen Lam Chan Qiang Xia Jing Xue Xiao Chen Jun Yu Sui Peng Joseph Jao-Yiu Sung Ming Kuang Alfred Sze-Lok Cheng | 2021 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2021，18，4： | 5 |
| 10 | Monolithic integration of MoS2-based visible detectors and GaN-based UV detectors显示文摘With the increasing demand for high integration and multi-color photodetection for both military and civilian applications, the research of multi-wavelength detectors has become a new research hotspot. However, current research has been mainly in visible dual-or multi-wavelength detectors, while integration of both visible light and ultraviolet(UV) dual-wavelength detectors has rarely been studied. In this work, large-scale and high-quality monolayer MoS2 was grown by the chemical vapor deposition method on transparent free-standing GaN substrate. Monolithic integration of MoS2-based visible detectors and GaN-based UV detectors was demonstrated using common semiconductor fabrication technologies such as photolithography, argon plasma etching, and metal deposition. High performance of a 280 nm and 405 nm dual-wavelength photodetector was realized.The responsivity of the UV detector reached 172.12 A/W, while that of the visible detector reached 17.5 A/W.Meanwhile, both photodetectors achieved high photocurrent gain, high external quantum efficiency, high normalized detection rate, and low noise equivalent power. Our study extends the future application of dual-wavelength detectors for image sensing and optical communication. | YOU WU ZHIWEN LI KAH-WEE ANG YUPING JIA ZHIMING SHI ZHI HUANG WENJIE YU XIAOJUAN SUN XINKE LIU DABING LI | 2019 | Photonics Research2019，7，10： | 4 |
| 11 | Generation of tooth-like structures from integration-free human urine induced pluripotent stem cells显示文摘Background:Tooth is vital not only for a good smile,but also good health.Yet,we lose tooth regularly due to accidents or diseases.An ideal solution to this problem is to regenerate tooth with patients’own cells.Here we describe the generation of tooth-like structures from integration-free human urine induced pluripotent stem cells(ifhU-iPSCs).Results:We first differentiated ifhU-iPSCs to epithelial sheets,which were then recombined with E14.5 mouse dental mesenchymes.Tooth-like structures were recovered from these recombinants in 3 weeks with success rate up to 30%for 8 different iPSC lines,comparable to H1 hESC.We further detected that ifhU-iPSC derived epithelial sheets differentiated into enamel-secreting ameloblasts in the tooth-like structures,possessing physical properties such as elastic modulus and hardness found in the regular human tooth.Conclusion:Our results demonstrate that ifhU-iPSCs can be used to regenerate patient specific dental tissues or even tooth for further drug screening or regenerative therapies. | Jinglei Cai Yanmei Zhang Pengfei Liu Shubin Chen Xuan Wu Yuhua Sun Ang Li Ke Huang Rongping Luo Lihui Wang Ying Liu Ting Zhou Shicheng Wei Guangjin Pan Duanqing Pei | 2013 | Cell Regeneration2013，2，1： | 4 |
| 12 | Eddy covariance measurements of water vapor and energy flux over a lake in the Badain Jaran Desert,China显示文摘Exploring the surface energy exchange between atmosphere and water bodies is essential to gain a quantitative understanding of regional climate change, especially for the lakes in the desert. In this study, measurements of energy flux and water vapor were performed over a lake in the Badain Jaran Desert, China from March 2012 to March 2013. The studied lake had about a 2-month frozen period(December and January) and a 10-month open-water period(February–November). Latent heat flux(LE) and sensible heat flux(Hs) acquired using the eddy covariance technique were argued by measurements of longwave and shortwave radiation. Both fluxes of longwave and shortwave radiation showed seasonal dynamics and daily fluctuations during the study period. The reflected solar radiation was much higher in winter than in other seasons. LE exhibited diurnal and seasonal variations. On a daily scale, LE was low in the morning and peaked in the afternoon. From spring(April) to winter(January), the diurnal amplitude of LE decreased slowly. LE was the dominant heat flux throughout the year and consumed most of the energy from the lake. Generally speaking, LE was mostly affected by changes in the ambient wind speed, while Hs was primarily affected by the product of water-air temperature difference and wind speed. The diurnal LE and Hs were negatively correlated in the open-water period. The variations in Hs and LE over the lake were differed from those on the nearby land surface. The mean evaporation rate on the lake was about 4.0 mm/d over the entire year, and the cumulative annual evaporation rate was 1445 mm/a. The cumulative annual evaporation was 10 times larger than the cumulative annual precipitation. Furthermore, the average evaporation rates over the frozen period and open-water period were approximately 0.6 and 5.0 mm/d, respectively. These results can be used to analyze the water balance and quantify the source of lake water in the Badain Jaran Desert. | SUN Jie HU Wenfeng WANG Nai'ang ZHAO Liqiang AN Ran NING Kai ZHANG Xunhe | 2018 | Journal of Arid Land2018，10，4： | 3 |
| 13 | Rapid generation of ACE2 humanized inbred mouse model for COVID-19 with tetraploid complementation显示文摘Although monkeys and pigs can be infected with SARS-Co V-2,they generally have a long growth cycle and a large size that is difficult to handle in large quantities.However,the readily available rats and mice are not susceptible to SARSCo V-2 because of differences in ACE2(angiotensin-converting enzyme 2),the receptor mediating cell entry of SARSCo V-2[1].Thus,the key to establishing a mouse model of COVID-19 is to make the mice express human ACE2 protein,and therefore become SARS-Co V-2 susceptible.Recently reported COVID-19 mouse models using a random insertion transgene approach[2,3]or adenoviral approach to express h ACE2[4],lack the tissue-specificity of h ACE2 expression and might not replicate COVID-19 precisely,limiting their applications in certain studies. | Feng-Liang Liu Kaixin Wu Jiaoyang Sun Zilei Duan Xiongzhi Quan Junqi Kuang Shilong Chu Wei Pang Han Gao Ling Xu Ying-Chang Li Hai-Lin Zhang Xue-Hui ang Rong-Hua Luo Xiao-Li Feng Hans RScholer Xinwen Chen Duanqing Pei Guangming Wu Yong-Tang Zheng Jiekai Chen | 2021 | National Science Review2021，8，2： | 3 |
| 14 | Immobilization of Bovine Serum Albumin on Poly(ether ether ketone) for Surface Biocompatibility Improvement显示文摘UV-induced graft polymerization of acrylic acid(AA) on poly(ether ether ketone)(PEEK) films was carried out to introduce ―COOH for the subsequent immobilization of bovine serum albumin(BSA).BSA was introduced on PEEK surface based on the condensation reaction between ―NH 2 and ―COOH.The modified surface(PEEK-BSA) was characterized by energy-disperse spectrometry(EDS),X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),water contact angle measurement and UV spectrum analysis.The contact angle was found to decrease from 104° for the virgin PEEK films to 63° for the BSA-immobilized PEEK films,demonstrating a significant improvement of surface hydrophilicity.Moreover,the appearance of nitrogen on PEEK film confirmed by XPS and EDS indicates the immobilization of BSA on PEEK surface. | SUN Hui CHEN Rui-chao LI Ang XU Guo-zhi | 2012 | Chemical Research in Chinese Universities2012，28，2： | 3 |
| 15 | Surface energy and water vapor fluxes observed on a megadune in the Badain Jaran Desert, China显示文摘The Badain Jaran Desert is the second-largest area of shifting sands in China. Our first measurements of the energy components and water vapor fluxes on a megadune using eddy covariance technology were taken from April 2012 to April 2013. The results indicate that the longwave and shortwave radiative fluxes exhibited large fluctuations and seasonal dynamics. The total radiative energy loss by longwave and shortwave radiation was greater on the megadune than from other underlying surfaces. The radiation partitioning was different in different seasons. The land-atmosphere interaction was primarily represented by the sensible heat flux. The average sensible heat flux(40.1 W/m2) was much larger than the average latent heat flux(14.5 W/m2). Soil heat flux played an important role in the energy balance. The mean actual evaporation was 0.41 mm/d, and the cumulative actual evaporation was approximately 150 mm/a. The water vapor would transport downwardly and appear as dew condensation water. The amount of precipitation determined the actual evaporation. The actual evaporation was supposed to be equal to the precipitation on the megadune and the precipitation was difficult to recharge the groundwater. Our study can provide a foundation for further research on land-atmosphere interactions in this area. | HU Wenfeng WANG Nai'ang ZHAO Liqiang NING Kai ZHANG Xunhe SUN Jie | 2015 | Journal of Arid Land2015，7，5： | 3 |
| 16 | Paeonol Improves Lipopolysaccharide-induced Microcirculatory Disturbance in Rat Mesentery显示文摘Objective: To investigate the effect of paeonol on lipopolysaccheride(LPS)-induced rat mesenteric microcirculatory dysfunctions.Methods: Male Wistar rats were randomly distributed into 5 groups(n=6 in each): Sham group, LPS group, paeonol group, paeonol+LPS group, and LPS+paeonol group. Endotoximia model was conducted by continuous LPS infusion. Changes in mesenteric microcirculatory variables, including diameter of venule, velocity of red blood cells in venule, leukocyte adhesion, free radicals produced in venule and albumin leakage from venule, were observed through an inverted intravital microscope. Meanwhile, the expression of myeloperoxidase(MPO), CD18,intercellular adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1), toll-like receptor 4(TLR4), nuclear factor-kappa B p65 subunit(NF-κB p65), activator protein-1(AP-1), and Jun N-terminal kinase(JNK) was assessed by Western blot.Results: After infusion of LPS, the number of leukocytes adherent to venular wall, the intensity of dihydrorhodamine 123(DHR)fluorescence in the venular walls, and albumin leakage from venules were significantly increased, whereas the red blood cell velocity in venule was decreased. All the manifestations were significantly reduced by pre-treatment and post-treatment with paeonol. Moreover, paeonol significantly attenuated the expression of MPO, CD18, ICAM-1, TLR4, NF-κB p65, AP-1 and JNK in rat mesentery after LPS.Conclusions: The results demonstrated that paeonol could protect from and ameliorate the microcirculation disturbance induced by LPS. | Lei Dong Ang Li Mei-Li Duan Kai Sun Yu-Ying Liu Ming-Xia Wang Chuan-She Wang Jing-Yu Fan Jing-Yan Han | 2015 | World Journal of Traditional Chinese Medicine2015，1，1： | 3 |
| 17 | The study on the mechanical characteristics of articular cartilage in simulated microgravity显示文摘The microgravity environment of a long-term space flight may induce acute changes in an astronaut's musculo-skeletal systems. This study explores the effects of simulated microgravity on the mechanical characteristics of articular cartilage. Six rats underwent tail suspension for 14 days and six additional rats were kept under normal earth gravity as controls. Swelling strains were measured using high-frequency ultrasound in all cartilage samples subject to osmotic loading. Site-specific swelling strain data were used in a triphasic theoretical model of cartilage swelling to determine the uniaxial modulus of the cartilage solid matrix. No severe surface irregularities were found in the cartilage samples obtained from the control or tail-suspended groups. For the tail-suspended group, the thickness of the cartilage at a specified site, as determined by ultrasound echo, showed aminor decrease. The uniaxial modulus of articular cartilage at the specified site decreased significantly, from (6 . 31 ± 3 . 37) MPa to (5 . 05 ± 2 . 98) MPa (p < 0 . 05). The histology-stained image of a cartilage sample also showed a reduced number of chondrocytes and decreased degree of matrix staining. These results demonstrated that the 14 d simulated microgravity induced significant effects on the mechanical characteristics of articular cartilage. This study is the first attempt to explore the effects of simulated microgravity on the mechanical characteristics of articular cartilage using an osmotic loading method and a triphasic model. The conclusions may provide reference information for manned space flights and a better understanding of the effects of microgravity on the skeletal system. | Hai-Jun Niu Qing Wang Yue-Xiang Wang Ang Li Lian-Wen Sun Yan Yan Fan Fan De-Yu Li Yu-Bo Fan | 2012 | Acta Mechanica Sinica2012，28，5： | 3 |

| 20 | Role of interstitial flow in tumor migration through 3D ECM显示文摘Cancer invasion in tissue is simultaneously regulated by chemical and mechanical cues.Evidences suggest that interstitial flow plays a critical role in tumor metastasis.On one hand,the distribution of chemokines around cell is influenced by flow.On the other hand,interstitial flow may reconfigure the alignment of fiber matrix,which greatly changes the contact force between cell and extracellular matrix.In this study,we have upgraded a model by which we can quantitatively investigate the influence of flow on tumor cell migration.A hydrodynamic analysis of shear stress on a slender body is introduced to simulate the fiber realignment.Factors such as subtle flow and cell-matrix interaction which dominate tumor migration are integrated in this novel model.Simulation results show interstitial flow facilitates tumor cell migration in the flow direction.Moreover,the flow-related chemical and mechanical cues have a synergistic effect on the migration.This model provides better understanding on cancer metastasis and helps design vitro experiment precisely. | Ang Li Ren Sun | 2020 | Acta Mechanica Sinica2020，36，3： | 2 |
