    Abstract Decreasing water volume and increasing pollutants in wetlands pose challenges to aquatic life. While environmental flow regulation is widely applied to enhance aquatic habitats, its effectiveness needs to be evaluated. In this study, a hydrodynamic-water quality model was used to simulate the fields of flow, temperature, and pollutants. The Ecological Niche Modeling at the MetaLand EcologyLab (ENMTML) was utilized to evaluate the area of suitable habitats for aquatic organisms under both environmental flow regulation and no environmental flow regulation conditions. The typical Baiyangdian Wetland in northern China was taken as the study area, and the important economic fish, Cyprinus carpio, served as the indicator of aquatic species. The effectiveness of environmental flow regulation was evaluated from December 1, 2017, to June 30, 2018. The results indicated that the variables of water depth, dissolved oxygen (DO), ammonia nitrogen (NH

    Abstract Through the non-targeted metabolomics study of endogenous substances in the liver and serum of hyperlipidemia rats, the biomarkers related to abnormal lipid metabolism in hyperlipidemia rats were found, and the target of ginsenoside Rb_1 in improving hyperlipidemia was explored and its mechanism was elucidated. The content of serum biochemical indexes of rats in each group was detected by the automatic biochemical analyzer. The metabolite profiles of liver tissues and serum of rats were analyzed by HPLC-MS. Principal component analysis(PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis(OPLS-DA) were used to compare and analyze the metabolic data in the normal group, the hyperlipidemia group, and the ginsenoside Rb_1 group, and screen potential biomar-kers. The related metabolic pathways were further constructed by KEGG database analysis. The results showed that hyperlipemia induced dyslipidemia in rats, which was alleviated by ginsenoside Rb_1. The non-targeted metabolomics results showed that there were 297 differential metabolites in the liver tissues of hyperlipidemia rats, 294 differential metabolites in the serum samples, and 560 diffe-rential metabolites in the hyperlipidemia rats treated by ginsenoside Rb_1. Perillic acid and N-ornithyl-L-taurine were common metabolites in the liver and serum samples, which could be used as potential biomarkers for ginsenoside Rb_1 in the improvement of hyperlipidemia. As revealed by pathway enrichment in the liver and serum, ginsenoside Rb_1 could participate in the metabolic pathway of choline in both the liver and serum. In addition, ginsenoside Rb_1 also participated in the ABC transporter, alanine, aspartic acid, and glutamate metabolism, protein digestion and absorption, β-alanine metabolism, taurine and hypotaurine metabolism, caffeine metabolism, valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis, arachidonic acid metabolism, and methionine and cysteine metabolism to improve dyslipidemia in rats.

    Abstract DNA sensor, a kind of pattern recognition receptor (PRR), is widely expressed in innate immune cells. It activates the inflammatory signaling pathways and triggers an innate immune response by recognizing the pathogens or DNA in abnormal host cells. DNA-dependent activator of IFN-regulatory factors (DAI) is the first cytoplasmic DNA receptor discovered, which plays an important role in regulating the innate immune responses characterized by induction of interferon and programmed cell death. The article summarizes the molecular characteristics of DAI, its downstream signaling pathways, and its role and mechanism in anti-infective immunity, tumor immunity and inflammatory diseases. It also makes a preliminary exploration of the correlation between DAI and transplantation immunology, and provides a new target for the therapy of various immune diseases.

    Abstract Guided tissue regeneration (GTR) is an important surgical method for periodontal regeneration. By placing barrier membrane on the root surface of the tooth to guide the adhesion and proliferation of periodontal ligament cells, periodontal tissue regeneration can be achieved. This review intends to analyze the current limitations of GTR membranes and to propose possible solutions for developing new ones. Limitations of current GTR membranes include nonabsorbable membranes and absorbable synthetic polymer membranes exhibit weak biocompatibility; when applying to a large defect wound, the natural collagen membrane with fast degradation rate have limited mechanical strength, and the barrier function may not be maintained well. Although the degradation time can be prolonged after cross-linking, it may cause foreign body reaction and affect tissue integration; The clinical operation of current barrier membranes is inconvenient. In addition, most of the barrier membranes lack bioactivity and will not actively promote periodontal tissue regeneration. Possible solutions include using electrospinning (ELS) techniques, nanofiber scaffolds, or developing functional gradient membranes to improve their biocompatibility; adding Mg, Zn, and/or other metal alloys, or using 3D printing technology to improve their mechanical strength; increasing the concentration of nanoparticles or using directional arrangement of membrane fibers to control the fiber diameter and porosity of the membrane, which can improve their barrier function; mixing natural and synthetic polymers as well as other biomaterials with different degradation rates in proportion to change the degradation rate and maintain barrier function; to improve the convenience of clinical operation, barrier membranes that meets personalized adhesion to the wound defect can be manufactured; developing local controlled release drug delivery systems to improve their bioactivity. Impact statement This review provides an up-to-date summary of commonly commercial periodontal guided tissue regeneration membranes, and analyze their limitations in clinical use. Using studies published recently to explore possible solutions from several perspectives and to raise possible strategies in the future. Several strategies have tested

    Abstract Microplastics (MPs < 5 mm) pollution is a widespread phenomenon in freshwater ecosystems. While the role of physiochemical factors in the migration and distribution of MPs is understood, the impact of biological migration remains less clear. The influence of nekton migration determined by habitat suitability on the distribution of MPs and the consequent ecological risks to the regional food web is investigated in the freshwater environment by using Baiyangdian Lake (China) as a case study. The key findings reveal that fish migration significantly alters the horizontal distribution of MPs in the water environment, with a higher degree of fish aggregation in high suitability habitats leading to an increased presence of MPs due to their ingestion and excretion behaviors. In both high and low suitability habitats, MPs are found to bioconcentrate in fish, suggesting a significant risk to aquatic ecosystems. Despite the lack of evidence supporting MPs biomagnification, the results indicate that MPs are more likely to be biomagnified within the food web of high suitability habitats due to the enhanced foraging capabilities of aquatic organisms. These findings highlight the critical need to consider biological factors, such as nekton migration, in understanding and addressing MPs pollution in freshwater ecosystems.

    Abstract Water is an indispensable resource without which human survival is impossible. Many households in the Komenda-Edina-Eguafo-Abrem (KEEA) Municipal, Ghana, rely on pipe-borne sources for drinking and domestic purposes. However, over the years, supply has been inconsistent due to operational bottlenecks bedeviling the water distribution agencies. Against this backdrop, this paper argues that tapping into groundwater resources could provide practical solutions to the water challenges facing the area. However, little is known about the spatial distribution of this precious resource as a solution to the uneven water distribution in the district. Consequently, the main objective of this study is to map groundwater potential zones (GWPZ) in the study area utilizing geospatial techniques. To accurately assess the groundwater condition of the area, eight pertinent factors that influence groundwater recharge were selected. Weights were assigned to these factors using the Analytic Hierarchy Process and superimposed in a geographic information systems environment to generate the GWPZ. The resultant map was classified into five zones namely very poor, poor, good, very good, and excellent. Results demonstrate that, overall, a larger proportion (almost 36%) of the study area was within poor groundwater zones. However, other areas (27%) were identified as very good locations for groundwater prospecting. Areas close to the coast were mostly found within poor zones. Using functional boreholes as a proxy for validation confirmed that 76.5% of the boreholes are within suitable sites for groundwater discovery. These results are significant for policy-making, sustainable planning, and management of water resources by stakeholders.
