    Abstract Highly oscillatory Volterra integral equations are frequently encountered in engineering applications. The Nyström-type method is an important numerical approach for solving such problems. However, there remains scope to further optimize and accelerate the Nyström method. This paper presents a novel Nyström-type method to efficiently approximate solutions to second-kind Volterra integral equations with highly oscillatory kernels. First, the unknown function is interpolated at Chebyshev points. Then the integral equation is solved using the Nyström-type method, which leads to a problem of solving a system of linear equations. A key contribution is the technique to express the fundamental Lagrange polynomial in matrix form. The elements of the matrix, which involves highly oscillatory integrals, are calculated by using the classical Fejér quadrature formula with a dilation technique. The proposed method is more efficient than the one proposed in the recent literature. Numerical examples verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed method.

    Abstract Abstract Climate change is imposing new selective pressures on forest tree populations. Evolutionary responses may be important for trees, despite long generation times, since many populations harbor significant genetic variation in environmentally relevant traits. However, the heritability of climate responses (e.g., how much growth differs under drought) has been investigated in only one tree species previously. Here, we quantify heritable variation in environmental response traits of Pinus ponderosa using a greenhouse trial. Five seedlings from each maternal family were exposed to either wet or dry treatments for four months. Traits measured include height and root length, root:shoot mass ratios, and stomatal density and number of rows. Narrow‐sense heritability for all traits was estimated using a half‐sib analysis. Many traits varied by treatment, and some also differed along gradients of “home” climate. Dry treatment root‐to‐shoot dry mass ratio was associated with survival in that treatment. Estimated heritability for drought responsiveness ranged from 0.15 to 0.65, with the highest values occurring in height growth responses. Variation was particularly high for shoot growth under drought conditions. Our results suggest that increasingly arid conditions could result in strong responses to selection.

    Abstract Psoriasis is a common inflammatory skin disease characterized by abnormal proliferation of epidermal keratinocytes and massive infiltration of inflammatory cells. Many kinds of cells, including keratinocytes, T lymphocytes, dendritic cells, neutrophils, and macrophages, are reported to play critical roles in the pathogenesis and progression of psoriasis. However, to date, the role of each kind of cell in the pathogenesis and development of psoriasis has not been systematically reviewed. In addition, although antibodies developed targeting cytokines (e.g. IL-23, IL-17A, and TNF-α) released by these cells have shown promising results in the treatment of psoriasis patients, these targeted antibodies still do not cure psoriasis and only provide short-term relief of symptoms. Furthermore, long-term use of these antibodies has been reported to have adverse physical and psychological effects on psoriasis patients. Therefore, gaining a deeper understanding of the cellular and molecular pathogenesis of psoriasis and providing new thoughts on the development of psoriasis therapeutic drugs is of great necessity. In this review, we summarize the roles of various cells involved in psoriasis, aiming to provide new insights into the pathogenesis and development of psoriasis at the cellular level and hoping to provide new ideas for exploring new and effective psoriasis treatments.

    Abstract Due to the intensive development of novel biopharming applications, there is a need for the in vitro verification models prior to in vivo testing. Laying hen has been already applied as an animal bioreactor to produce the therapeutical enzyme in a rare disease called lysosomal acid lipase deficiency. In this study, we aimed to verify how the proteome of the transfected oviduct epithelial cells would be affected by genetic nonviral modification with the human exogene. The study was based on a previously developed method to cultivate chicken oviduct epithelial cells (COEC). The typical characteristics of the COEC epithelial cells were retained across the experiments. The mean efficiency of nucleofection ranged from 2.6 to 19.7% depending on the cells' isolation and location in the oviduct (upper, infundibulum site, or magnum). The PCR confirmed the incorporation of human interferon alpha2a (hIFNα2a) exogene into the nucleofected COEC but, the production of hIFNα2a protein did not exceed the detection level in this study. The ovalbumin protein was detected in the nontransfected and transfected COEC, which confirmed the normal secreting functions of the cells subject to modification. Proteomic analysis revealed an increase in abundance of the cell adhesion molecules and collagen molecules after introducing gene under ovalbumin promoter. According to the bioinformatic analyses there was a limited negative impact of transfection on cells, and the normal biochemical pathways were not severely disordered. In conclusion, the observations provide new knowledge about the proteomic profile of the manipulated COEC with regard to the retained normal functionality of the cells, which can be informative for avian biopharma research.
