    Abstract Organelles form tight connections through membrane contact sites, thereby cooperating to regulate homeostasis and cell function. Among them, the contact between endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the main intracellular calcium storage organelles, and mitochondria has been recognized for decades, and its main roles in the ion and lipid transport, ROS signaling, membrane dynamic changes and cellular metabolism are basically determined. At present, many tumor chemotherapeutic drugs rely on ER-mitochondrial calcium signal to function, but the mechanism of targeting resident molecules at the mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAM) to sensitize traditional chemotherapy and the new tumor therapeutic targets identified based on the signal pathways on the MAM have not been thoroughly discussed. In this review, we highlight the key roles of various signaling pathways at the ER-mitochondria contact site in tumorigenesis and focus on novel anticancer therapy strategies targeting potential targets at this contact site.

    Abstract As urbanization accelerates, understanding and managing carbon emissions from urban sewer networks have become crucial for sustainable urban water cycles. This review examines the factors influencing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions within urban sewage systems, analyzing the complex effects between water quality, hydrodynamics, and sewer infrastructure on GHG production and emission processes. It reveals significant spatiotemporal heterogeneity in GHG emissions, particularly under long-term scenarios where flow rates and temperatures exhibit strong impacts and correlations. Given the presence of fugitive and dissolved potential GHGs, standardized monitoring and accounting methods are deemed essential. Advanced modeling techniques emerge as crucial tools for large-scale carbon emission prediction and management. The review identifies that traditional definitions and computational frameworks for carbon emission boundaries fail to fully consider the inherent heterogeneity of sewers and the dynamic changes and impacts of multi-source pollution within the sewer system during the urban water cycle. This includes irregular fugitive emissions, the influence of stormwater systems, climate change, geographical features, sewer design, and the impacts of food waste and antibiotics. Key strategies for emission management are discussed, focusing on the need for careful consideration of approaches that might inadvertently increase global emissions, such as ventilation, chemical treatments, and water management practices. The review advocates for an overarching strategy that encompasses a holistic view of carbon emissions, stressing the importance of refined emission boundary definitions, novel accounting practices, and comprehensive management schemes in line with the water treatment sector's move towards carbon neutrality. It champions the adoption of interdisciplinary, technologically advanced solutions to mitigate pollution and reduce carbon emissions, emphasizing the importance of integrating cross-scale issues and other environmentally friendly measures in future research directions.

    Abstract Introduction: With the help of robot technology, intelligent rehabilitation of patients with lower limb motor dysfunction caused by stroke can be realized. A key factor constraining the clinical application of rehabilitation robots is how to realize pattern recognition of human movement intentions by using the surface electromyography (sEMG) sensors to ensure unhindered human-robot interaction.
    Methods: A multilayer CNN-LSTM prediction network incorporating the self-attention mechanism (SAM) is proposed, in this paper, which can extract and learn the periodic and trend characteristics of the sEMG signals, and realize the accurate autoregressive prediction of the human motion information. Firstly, the multilayer CNN-LSTM network utilizes the CNN layer for initial feature extraction of data, and the LSTM network is used to improve the enhancement of the historical time-series features. Then, the SAM is used to improve the global feature extraction performance and parallel computation speed of the network.
    Results: In comparison with existing test is carried out using actual data from five healthy subjects as well as a clinical hemiplegic patient to verify the superiority and practicality of the proposed algorithm. The results show that most of the model's prediction
    Discussion: The main contribution of this paper is to realize continuous motion estimation of ankle joint for healthy and hemiplegic individuals under non-ideal conditions (weak sEMG signals, muscle fatigue, high muscle tension, etc.), which improves the pattern recognition accuracy and robustness of the sEMG sensor-based system.

    Abstract Background: Alamandine is a newly characterized peptide of renin angiotensin system. Our study aims to investigate the osteo-preservative effects of alamandine, explore underlying mechanism and bring a potential preventive strategy for postmenopausal osteoporosis in the future.
    Methods: An ovariectomy (OVX)-induced rat osteoporosis model was established for in vivo experiments. Micro-computed tomography and three-point bending test were used to evaluate bone strength. Histological femur slices were processed for immunohistochemistry (IHC). Bone turnover markers and nitric oxide (NO) concentrations in serum were determined with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The mouse embryo osteoblast precursor (MC3T3-E1) cells were used for in vitro experiments. The cell viability was analysed with a Cell Counting Kit‑8. We performed Alizarin Red S staining and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity assay to observe the differentiation status of osteoblasts. Western blotting was adopted to detect the expression of osteogenesis related proteins and AMP-activated protein kinase/endothelial nitric oxide synthase (AMPK/eNOS) in osteoblasts. DAF-FM diacetate was used for semi-quantitation of intracellular NO.
    Results: In OVX rats, alamandine alleviated osteoporosis and maintained bone strength. The IHC showed alamandine increased osteocalcin and collagen type I α1 (COL1A1) expression. The ELISA revealed alamandine decreased bone turnover markers and restored NO level in serum. In MC3T3-E1 cells, alamandine promoted osteogenic differentiation. Western blotting demonstrated that alamandine upregulated the expression of osteopontin, Runt-related transcription factor 2 and COL1A1. The intracellular NO was also raised by alamandine. Additionally, the activation of AMPK/eNOS axis mediated the effects of alamandine on MC3T3-E1 cells and bone tissue. PD123319 and dorsomorphin could repress the regulating effect of alamandine on bone metabolism.
    Conclusion: Alamandine attenuates ovariectomy-induced osteoporosis by promoting osteogenic differentiation via AMPK/eNOS axis.

    Abstract Pharmaceuticals have been considered a priority group of emerging micropollutants in source waters in recent years, while their role in the formation and toxicity of disinfection byproducts (DBPs) during chlorine disinfection remains largely unclear. In this study, the contributions of natural organic matter (NOM) and pharmaceuticals (a mixture of ten representative pharmaceuticals) to the overall DBP formation and toxicity during drinking water chlorination were investigated. By innovatively "normalizing" chlorine exposure and constructing a kinetic model, we were able to differentiate and evaluate the contributions of NOM and pharmaceuticals to the total organic halogen (TOX) formation for source waters that contained different levels of pharmaceuticals. It was found that at a chlorine contact time of 1.0 h, NOM (2 mg/L as

    Abstract Introduction: For patients with functional motor disorders of the lower limbs due to brain damage or accidental injury, restoring the ability to stand and walk plays an important role in clinical rehabilitation. Lower limb exoskeleton robots generally require patients to convert themselves to a standing position for use, while being a wearable device with limited movement distance.
    Methods: This paper proposes a reconfigurable behavioral assistive robot that integrates the functions of an exoskeleton robot and an assistive standing wheelchair through a novel mechanism. The new mechanism is based on a four-bar linkage, and through simple and stable conformal transformations, the robot can switch between exoskeleton state, sit-to-stand support state, and wheelchair state. This enables the robot to achieve the functions of assisted walking, assisted standing up, supported standing and wheelchair mobility, respectively, thereby meeting the daily activity needs of sit-to-stand transitions and gait training. The configuration transformation module controls seamless switching between different configurations through an industrial computer. Experimental protocols have been developed for wearable testing of robotic prototypes not only for healthy subjects but also for simulated hemiplegic patients.
    Results: The experimental results indicate that the gait tracking effect during robot-assisted walking is satisfactory, and there are no sudden speed changes during the assisted standing up process, providing smooth support to the wearer. Meanwhile, the activation of the main force-generating muscles of the legs and the plantar pressure decreases significantly in healthy subjects and simulated hemiplegic patients wearing the robot for assisted walking and assisted standing-up compared to the situation when the robot is not worn.
    Discussion: These experimental findings demonstrate that the reconfigurable behavioral assistive robot prototype of this study is effective, reducing the muscular burden on the wearer during walking and standing up, and provide effective support for the subject's body. The experimental results objectively and comprehensively showcase the effectiveness and potential of the reconfigurable behavioral assistive robot in the realms of behavioral assistance and rehabilitation training.
