Influenza B virus infection alters the regenerative potential of murine alveolar type 2 pneumocytes by Satoko Nakano, Cait E. Hamele, Aleksandra Tata, Purushothama Rao Tata, Nicholas S. Heaton

“…Our findings not only enhance our understanding of the AT2 pneumocyte response to IBV infection but could also have broader implications for the mechanisms of respiratory epithelial repair post-viral infection.IMPORTANCEAlveolar type 2 (AT2) pneumocytes are a cell type critical for repair of the distal lung after an injury, such as a viral infection. After epithelial damage, AT2 pneumocytes proliferate for both self-renewal and differentiation into type I pneumocytes to repopulate the epithelium. …”

Failure Behavior and Energy Storage and Release of Hard Coal under Different Static and Dynamic Loading States by XianJie Hao, GuangYao Pan, Chaoxing Ma, Yingnan Wei, Zeyu Chen

“…It was concluded that (1) the energy accumulation and rate of releases of this type of hard coal under static compression are 17.63–179.90 times and 18.57–13157.89 times those under static tension; the energy accumulation and rate of releases in dynamic compression are 2.11–248.53 and 0.23–48 times those under dynamic tension, respectively. (2) During dynamic loading, the ratio of compressive energy accumulation to tensile energy accumulation is reduced by 1.6 times compared with static loading, and the ratio of compressive energy release to tensile energy rate of release is decreased by 363.84 times compared with static loading. (3) The energy accumulation and rate of releases of this type of hard coal for dynamic tensile are, respectively, 2.64–17.42 and 1.07–5.26 times those under static tensile load; the energy accumulation under dynamic compression is greater than that under static compression, being 0.24–15.04 times that under static compressive, but the energy rate of release under dynamic compression is 0.0003–0.56 times that under static compression. (4) The greater the prepeak energy accumulation, the greater the degree of damage of the coal sample at each stage, and also the higher the degree of fragmentation after the failure. …”

A novel strategy for the protective effect of ginsenoside Rg1 against ovarian reserve decline by the PINK1 pathway by Pengdi Yang, Meiling Fan, Ying Chen, Dan Yang, Lu Zhai, Baoyu Fu, Lili Zhang, Yanping Wang, Rui Ma, Liwei Sun

“…The protective effects of ginsenoside Rg1 were analyzed in a Drosophila model of oxidative damage induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Protein expression levels in the PINK1/Parkin pathway were assessed, and molecular docking and PINK1 mutant analyses were conducted to identify potential targets.Results Ginsenoside Rg1 significantly mitigated ovarian reserve decline, enhancing offspring quantity and quality, increasing the levels of ecdysteroids, preventing ovarian atrophy, and elevating germline stem cell numbers in aged Drosophila. …”

Mechanism of Nerve Regeneration after Ischemic Stroke Induced by Exercise Intervention by TENG Lili, ZHANG Mei, SONG Wenjing, ZHU Luwen

“…Based on the plasticity of the central nervous system, exercise intervention can play a neuroprotective role in the brain through multi-levels, multi-pathways and multi-targets, such as regulating synaptic budding, connection and transmission efficiency, improving the functional connection between regenerative axons and target cells, promoting angiogenesis and protecting the integrity of neurovascular units, regulating related inhibitory nerve regeneration factors, and inducing the expression of various nerve growth factors related to nerve regeneration and promoting the proliferation of neural stem cells, so as to participate in the regulation of central nervous rege-neration environment, and improve the damaged nerve function after ischemia.…”
