    Abstract This study investigated the mechanism of the strong diurnal cycle of precipitation over the Kuroshio Current (KC) in mid-June when the climatological location of the Meiyu-Baiu (MB) front is aligned with the KC. The diurnal cycle of precipitation exhibits double peaks, with the primary peak in the morning (03–12 LST) and the secondary peak in the afternoon (12–15 LST). It was revealed that the morning peak is induced by convective instability associated with the large temperature difference between the sea surface and the surface air (TDiff), whereas the cross-frontal circulation is responsible for the afternoon peak. In the morning, heating from the KC intensifies as the TDiff maximizes. Intensified convective instability due to the enhanced heating from the KC increases the mean amount of convective precipitation (CP) as well as the probability of stronger CP. The surface wind convergence and the confluence sustaining the convection intensify the frontogenesis, which leads to the maximization of the frontal intensity in the afternoon. The afternoon peak of precipitation is in accordance with the intensified MB front and the associated cross-frontal circulation. However, direct contribution of diabatic heating to the frontogenesis is relatively weak. This study provides a physical understanding of the intensified diurnal cycle of MB rainfall in terms of the interaction between oceanic and atmospheric fronts, the KC and MB, respectively.

    Abstract Central sleep apnea (CSA) is defined as an absence of breathing without respiratory drive during sleep. It can occur after treatment of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), a phenomenon known as treatment-emergent central sleep apnea (TECSA). We present a case of a 23-year-old male who developed CSA after pharyngeal and nasal surgery for severe OSA. High loop gain and increased ventilations from frequent arousal are likely explanations for our patient’s central apnea, which resolved with positive airway pressure therapy that possibly alleviated residual airway obstruction and ventilatory instability. This case suggests that effectiveness of treatment for OSA should be based on careful long-term observation with multiple follow-up polysomnography tests, especially in patients at high risk of TECSA.

    Abstract Separating radioactive cesium from nuclear waste and contaminated environments is critical to mitigate radiological hazards. In response to this need, remote-controllable and Cs-selective micromotor adsorbents have been considered as a promising technology for rapid in-situ cleanup while minimizing secondary waste and radiation exposure to workers. In this study, we demonstrate the active and rapid removal of a radioactive contaminant from water by leveraging the magnetic manipulation capabilities of a helical and magnetic Ni micromotor coated with Cs-selective nickel ferrocyanide (NiFC). The use of polyvinyl alcohol fibers as a template enables the straightforward preparation of the helical wire structure, allowing for precise control over the diameter and pitch of the helix through simple twisting with Ni wires.

    Abstract Defects in DNA double-strand break (DSB) repair signaling permit cancer cells to accumulate genomic alterations that confer their aggressive phenotype. Nevertheless, tumors depend on residual DNA repair abilities to survive the DNA damage induced by genotoxic stress. This is why only isolated DNA repair signaling is inactivated in cancer cells. DNA DSB repair signaling contributes to general mechanism for various types of lesions in diverse cell cycle phases. DNA DSB repair genes are frequently mutated and amplified in cancer; however, limited data exist regarding the overall genomic prospect and functional result of these modifications. We list the DNA repair genes and related E3 ligases. Mutation and expression frequencies of these genes were analyzed in COSMIC and TCGA. The 11 genes with a high frequency of mutation differed between cancers, and mutations in many DNA DSB repair E3 ligase genes were related to a higher total mutation burden. DNA DSB repair E3 ligase genes are involved in tumor suppressive or oncogenic functions, such as RNF168 and FBXW7, by assisting the functionality of these genomic alterations. DNA damage response-related E3 ligases, such as RNF168, FBXW7, and HERC2, were generated with more than 10% mutation in several cancer cells. This study provides a broad list of candidate genes as potential biomarkers for genomic instability and novel therapeutic targets in cancer. As a DSB related proteins considerably appear the possibilities for targeting DNA repair defective tumors or hyperactive DNA repair tumors. Based on recent research, we describe the relationship between unstable DSB repairs and DSB-related E3 ligases. [BMB Reports 2023; 56(5): 265-274].

    Abstract Sleep accounts for one-third of an individual's life and is a measure of health. Both sleep time and quality are essential, and a person requires sound sleep to stay healthy. Generally, sleep patterns are influenced by genetic factors and differ among people. Therefore, analyzing whether individual sleep patterns guarantee sufficient sleep is necessary. Here, we aimed to acquire information regarding the sleep status of individuals in an unconstrained and unconscious state to consequently classify the sleep state. Accordingly, we collected data associated with the sleep status of individuals, such as frequency of tosses and turns, snoring, and body temperature, as well as environmental data, such as room temperature, humidity, illuminance, carbon dioxide concentration, and ambient noise. The sleep state was classified into two stages: nonrapid eye movement and rapid eye movement sleep, rather than the general four stages. Furthermore, to verify the validity of the sleep state classifications, we compared them with heart rate.

    Abstract Olfaction is an important aspect of quality of life, beyond simply smelling food and recognizing danger. Recently, research has focused on its association with various diseases, such as neurodegenerative diseases or viral infections. The evaluation of olfactory function must take into consideration the cultural experience of the target group. A new Korean culturefriendly olfactory function test, the YSK olfactory function test (YOF test, Kimex Co.), uses safe odorants, such as phenyl-ethyl alcohol (PEA) (not n-butanol), for the threshold test. Furthermore, odorants in the YOF identification test reflect each of eight major chemical functional groups. The diagnostic cut-off for anosmia was a Threshold Discrimination Identification (TDI) score of ≤14.5 and that for hyposmia was 14.5<TDI≤21.0. The YOF test showed relevant diagnostic validity for olfactory dysfunction when compared with the Korean version of the Sniffin’ Stick-II test. In this review, we share our experiences developing a new Korean-friendly olfactory function test.<br />

    Abstract Introduction: The olfactory epithelium (OE) and olfactory bulb (OB) are the major components of the olfactory system and play critical roles in olfactory perception. However, the embryonic development of OE and OB by using the olfactory specific genes has not been comprehensively investigated yet. Most previous studies were limited to a specific embryonic stage, and very little is known, till date, about the development of OE.
    Methods: The current study aimed to explore the development of mouse olfactory system by spatiotemporal analysis of the histological features by using the olfactory specific genes of olfactory system from the prenatal to postnatal period.
    Results: We found that OE is divided into endo-turbinate, ecto-turbinate, and vomeronasal organs, and that putative OB with putative main and accessory OB is formed in the early developmental stage. The OE and OB became multilayered in the later developmental stages, accompanied by the differentiation of olfactory neurons. Remarkably, we found the development of layers of olfactory cilia and differentiation of OE to progress dramatically after birth, suggesting that the exposure to air may facilitate the final development of OE.
    Discussion: Overall, the present study laid the groundwork for a better understanding of the spatial and temporal developmental events of the olfactory system.

    Abstract Wide-area surface decontamination is essential during the sudden release of radioisotopes to the public, such as nuclear accidents or terrorist attacks. A self-generated hydrogel comprising a reversible complex between poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and phenylboronic acid-grafted poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-mono-sodium maleate) (PBA-g-PMVE-SM) was developed as a new surface decontamination coating agent to remove radioactive cesium from surfaces. The simultaneous application of PVA and PBA-g-PMVE-SM aqueous polymer solutions containing sulfur-zeolite to contaminated surfaces resulted in the spontaneous formation of a PBA-diol ester bond-based hydrogel. The sulfur-zeolite suspended in the hydrogel selectively removed
