    Abstract Rampant wrongful prosecutions terrorize innocent people-everywhere. The scientific community is not immune to this. I know because I was a victim. I am a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) who was accused by the US government of fraud and questionable connections to Chinese entities. Earlier this year, I was finally exonerated-it took 2 years. I am painfully aware, however, that I am the luckiest among the unlucky. Many other Chinese American scientists are being unfairly investigated for similar alleged "crimes." Or they are simply leaving the country to avoid being targeted. My ordeal taught me that politics affects science and scientists, and that universities and funding agencies must stand up for faculty who are wrongfully prosecuted.

    Abstract: ... the bacterial diversity and functional profiles of the Huang Gang (HG) Creek, located in the trace metal-rich ...

    Abstract The microbial characteristics of water bodies located in the outflow of hot springs may affect the water quality parameters of the associated river ecosystem. Using 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing, we investigated the bacterial diversity and functional profiles of the Huang Gang (HG) Creek, located in the trace metal-rich, acid-sulfate thermal springs zone of the Tatun Volcano Group (TVG). Biofilms and water samples were collected from the upstream, midstream, and geothermal valleys and downstream of the creek. The results showed that the biofilm and water samples had distinct bacterial diversity and abundance profiles. Acidophilic sulfur-oxidizing bacteria were found to be more abundant in water samples, whereas aquatic photosynthetic bacterial communities were dominant in biofilms. The water samples were contaminated with Legionella and Chlamydiae, which could contaminate the nearby river and cause clinical infections in humans. The upstream samples were highly unique and displayed higher diversity than the other sites. Moderate thermo-acidophiles were dominant in the upstream and midstream regions, whereas the geothermal valley and downstream samples were abundant in thermo-acidophiles. In addition, functional profiling revealed higher expression of sulfur, arsenic, and iron-related functions in water and lead-related functions in the biofilms of the creek. As described in previous studies, the hydrochemical properties of the HG Creek were influenced by the TVG hot springs. Our findings indicated that the hydrochemical properties of the HG Creek were highly correlated with the bacterial diversity and functional potential of running water as compared to biofilms.

    Abstract This study was conducted to research the effect of overfeeding on antioxidant capacity of serum, liver, gut, and breast muscle in Gang Goose and Tianfu Meat Goose. Fifty-five Gang Geese and 55 Tianfu Meat Geese were separated respectively into a control group and an overfed group randomly (15 birds in control group, 40 birds in overfed group); all birds were slaughtered after overfeeding for 3 wk. After overfeeding, the concentration of triglyceride, insulin, and glucose increased in serum (P < 0.05), the liver weight and fat content in liver increased, and the moisture content in liver decreased (P < 0.05) in both breeds. The liver weight, ratio of liver to body, and fat content in liver of Tianfu Meat Goose were higher than those of Gang Goose (P < 0.05). Overfeeding had no significant effect on the meat quality of breast muscle (P > 0.05). The activities of total glutathione peroxidase (TGP), superoxide dismutase, and catalase (CAT) in serum of the control group were higher than those in the overfed group (P < 0.05); the activities of total glutathione peroxidase, CAT, and the total antioxidant capacity in liver of the control group were higher than those in the overfed group (P < 0.05); there was no significant difference between the overfed group and the control group in the malonyldialdehyde (MAD) content of liver and serum (P > 0.05). The malonyldialdehyde content of intestine in the overfed group was higher than that in the control group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the oxidative stress occurred in the serum, liver, and intestine after overfeeding.
