    Abstract The concept of metric dimension has many applications, including optimizing sensor placement in networks and identifying influential persons in social networks, which aids in effective resource allocation and focused interventions; finding the source of a spread in an arrangement; canonically labeling graphs; and inserting typical information in low-dimensional Euclidean spaces. In a graph G, the set S⊆V(G) of minimum vertices from which all other verticescan be uniquely determined by the distances to the vertices in S is called the resolving set. The cardinality of the resolving set is called the metric dimension. The set S is called fault-tolerant resolving set if S\{v} is still a resolving set of G. The minimum cardinality of such a set S is called fault-tolerant metric dimension of G. GeSbTe super lattice is the latest chemical compound to have electronic material that is capable of non-volatile storing phase change memories with minimum energy usage. In this work, we calculate the resolving set (fault tolerant resolving set) to find the metric dimension(fault-tolerant metric dimension) for the molecular structure of the GeSbTe lattice. The results may be useful in comparing network structure and categorizing the structure of the GeSbTe lattice.

    Abstract Optical probes are the preferred choice for high-precision surface metrology, necessitating improved flexibility and a broader range of motion to adapt to the increasing complexity of surfaces. This study introduces an interferometric probe designed for measuring aspheric surfaces, utilizing a wave-plate-array detection component. By integrating splitter elements into the detector, the probe improves integration and dynamic scanning performance, while maintaining high-precision measurement capability. The system design and working principle are explored, and comprehensive nonlinear models based on the Jones matrix theory are established. These models focus on the nonlinear errors arising from alignment errors in various cases. Moreover, rigorous numerical simulations and optical experiments are conducted to validate the proposed models. When the alignment error reaches 10°, it results in a maximum nonlinear error of 3.02 nm. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the models in capturing nonlinear errors induced by alignment errors, providing a theoretical foundation for error reduction and compensation.

    Abstract Photodynamic therapy is a noninvasive cancer treatment that utilizes photosensitizers to generate reactive oxygen species upon light exposure, leading to tumor cell apoptosis. Although photosensitizers have shown efficacy in clinical practice, they are associated with certain disadvantages, such as a certain degree of toxicity and limited availability. Recent studies have shown that natural product photosensitizers offer promising options due to their low toxicity and potential therapeutic effects. In this review, we provide a summary and evaluation of the current clinical photosensitizers that are commonly used and delve into the anticancer potential of natural product photosensitizers like psoralens, quinonoids, chlorophyll derivatives, curcumin, chrysophanol, doxorubicin, tetracyclines, Leguminosae extracts, and

    Abstract Background: The timing of bud break is very important for the flowering and fruiting of longan. To obtain new insights into the underlying regulatory mechanism of bud break in longan, a comparative analysis was conducted in three flower induction stages of two longan varieties with opposite flowering phenotypes by using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantification (iTRAQ).
    Results: In total, 3180 unique proteins were identified in 18 samples, and 1101 differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) were identified. "SX" ("Shixia"), a common longan cultivated variety that needs an appropriate period of low temperatures to accumulate energy and nutrients for flower induction, had a strong primary inflorescence, had a strong axillary inflorescence, and contained high contents of sugars, and most DAPs during the bud break process were enriched in assimilates and energy metabolism. Combined with our previous transcriptome data, it was observed that sucrose synthase 6 (SS6) and granule-bound starch synthase 1 (GBSSI) might be the key DAPs for "SX" bud break. Compared to those of "SX", the primary inflorescence, axillary inflorescence, floral primordium, bract, and prophyll of "SJ" ("Sijimi") were weaker. In addition, light, rather than a high sugar content or chilling duration, might act as the key signal for triggering bud break. In addition, catalase isozyme 1, an important enzyme in the redox cycle, and RuBisCO, a key enzyme in the Calvin cycle of photosynthetic carbon assimilation, might be the key DAPs for SJ bud break.
    Conclusion: Our results present a dynamic picture of the bud break of longan, not only revealing the temporal specific expression of key candidate genes and proteins but also providing a scientific basis for the genetic improvement of this fruit tree species.

    Abstract Recently, cellulose nanofibers (CNF) have gained significant attention as renewable and high-value nano-biomaterial that has the potential to regulate microstructures and enhance the strength properties of paper products. However, the distribution of CNF in paper sheets may impact the physical properties differently, requiring further understanding. In this study, the effects of different CNF distributions on pore sizes and strength properties in paper sheets were investigated. The hypothesis is that the different distributions of CNF within paper sheets can exhibit different functions in improving the physical properties of paper sheets. Three types of paper sheets containing CNF were respectively prepared by mixing with pulp (CNF (mixture)), distribution on the surface of paper sheets (CNF (surface)) and adding in the middle of paper sheets (CNF (middle)). Results show that CNF can narrow the pore size distribution of paper sheets, particularly in samples with CNF (surface) and CNF (middle) that form dense CNF layers. The highest mechanical strength improvement was observed with mixed CNF. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed that this is due to the strong hydrogen bonding between CNF and pulp fibers, resulting from a large bonding area and effective contact with pulp fibers. This study provides a new perspective on CNF distribution within paper sheets for improving wet web strength properties.

    Abstract The main non-wood lignocellulose resource, wheat straw, has been utilized in bio-mechanical pulping process for paper industry to alleviate feedstock shortages, reduce environmental pollution, and lower carbon emissions as well. However, the wheat straw-based bio-mechanical pulping effluent (BMPE) could cause water pollution and resource waste if not properly handled. The efficient extraction of lignin biomass from BMPE is still a great challenge. The novelty of this study is to propose a facile process for efficient extraction of lignin with high yield, high purity and controllable morphology from wheat straw based BMPE via a commercialized technique, LignoForceᵀᴹ process, which has been industrially applied in lignin extraction from wood based Kraft pulping black liquor. Considering the unique attributes of wheat straw (non-wood) based BMPE, we successfully improved the LignoForceᵀᴹ technology for high efficient lignin extraction. The extracted lignin from BMPE was characterized for its chemical properties, ash content, monosaccharide composition, controllable morphology, particle size/distribution, and molecule weight/distribution at varying oxygen dosages and oxidation temperatures. The resultant lignin particles possess comparable regular spherical morphology with controllable particle size/ distribution. Additionally, the yield and ash content of the lignin extracted from BMPE and chemical-mechanical pulping effluent (CMPE) of wheat straw were compared and analyzed to evaluate the feasibility of the improved LignoForceᵀᴹ technology utilized in non-wood BMPE with high extraction efficiency. The study found that the practical successive LignoForceᵀᴹ treatments, including oxidation process (O₂), CO₂, and H₂SO₄ acidification procedures, showed great potential in obtaining high-yield and high-quality acid-precipitated lignin with controllable morphology from the non-wood (wheat straw) based BMPE.

    Abstract Keipert syndrome(KS, OMIM:301026) is a rare X-linked recessive inherited disorder characterized by distinctive facial appearance and digital abnormalities, and the disease is caused by hemizygous mutations in the GPC4 gene encoding the heparan sulfate proteoglycan glypican 4. We first established an induced pluripotent stem cell line (ATCi002-A) from PBMCs collected from a two-year-old boy patient with c.877 + 1G > A variant in the GPC4 gene, via reprogramming with KLF4, SOX2, OCT3/4, and c-MYC. Through identification examination, the iPSCs (ATCi002-A) stably expressed pluripotency-associated stem cell markers, and maintained a normal karyotype, and showed proliferative potential for differentiation of the three-germ layer.
