Abstract
Over the vast open ocean, vital nutrients for phytoplankton growth in the sunlit surface layer are largely provided through physical transport from deep waters, but some nutrients are also provided through atmospheric deposition of desert dust. The extent and magnitude of dust-mediated effects on surface ocean ecosystems have been difficult to estimate globally. In this work, we use global satellite ocean color products to demonstrate widespread responses to atmospheric dust deposition across a diverse continuum of phytoplankton nutritional conditions. The observed responses vary regionally, with some areas exhibiting substantial changes in phytoplankton biomass, whereas in other areas, the response reflects a change in physiological status or health. Climate-driven changes in atmospheric aerosols will alter the relative importance of this nutrient source.

Abstract
People are expected to have been previously vaccinated with a Vaccinia-based vaccine, as until 1980 smallpox vaccination was a standard protocol in China. It is unclear whether people with smallpox vaccine still have antibody against vaccinia virus (VACV) and cross-antibody against monkeypox virus (MPXV). Herein, we assessed the binding antibodies with antigen of VACV-A33 and MPXV-A35 in the general population and HIV-1 infected patients. Firstly, we detected VACV antibody with A33 protein to evaluate the efficiency of smallpox vaccination. The result show that 29% (23 of 79) of hospital staff (age ≥ 42 years) and 63% (60 of 95) of HIV-positive patients (age ≥ 42 years) from Guangzhou Eighth People's Hospital were able to bind A33. However, among the subjects below 42 years of age, 1.5% (3/198) of the hospital volunteer samples and 1% (1/104) of the samples from HIV patients were positive for antibodies against A33 antigen. Then, we assessed the specific cross-reactive antibodies against MPXV A35 protein. 24% (19 of 79) hospital staff (age〉 = 42 years) and 44% (42 of 95) of HIV-positive patients (age〉 = 42 years) were positive. 98% (194/198) of the hospital staff and 99% (103/104) of the HIV patients had no A35-binding antibodies. Further, we found significant sex differences for the reactivity to A35 antigen were observed in HIV population, but no significant sex differences in hospital staff. Further, we analyzed the positivity rate of anti-A35 antibody of men who have sex with men (MSM) and non-MSM in HIV patients (age〉 = 42years). We found that 47% of no-MSM population and 40% of MSM population were positive for A35 antigen, with no significant difference. Lastly, we found only 59 samples were positive for anti-A33 IgG and anti-A35 IgG in all participants. Together, we demonstrated A33 and A35 antigens binding antibodies were detected in HIV patients and general population who were older than 42 years, and cohort studies only provided data of serological detection to support early response to monkeypox outbreak.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to compare the clinical efficacy of at-home, in-office, and combined bleaching regimens. METHODS Forty-eight participants were recruited and randomly divided into four groups based on the bleaching regimen (n=12) as follows: 1) at-home bleaching using 10% carbamide peroxide (Opalescence PF 10%, Ultradent) for 14 days (HB); 2) two sessions of in-office bleaching using 40% hydrogen peroxide (Opalescence BOOST PF 40%, Ultradent) with a one-week interval (OB); 3) one session of in-office bleaching followed by at-home bleaching for seven days (OHB); and 4) at-home bleaching for seven days followed by one session of in-office bleaching (HOB). Tooth color was measured using a spectrophotometer (Easyshade, Vita ZahnFabrik) at baseline (T0), day 8 (T1), day 15 (T2), and day 43 (T3, four weeks after the end of the bleaching treatment). The color data were calculated using the CIEDE2000 (ΔE00) and whiteness index for dentistry (WID) formulas. Tooth sensitivity (TS) was recorded using a visual analogue scale (VAS) for 16 days. Data were analyzed by one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and the Wilcoxon signed-rank test (α=0.05). RESULTS All bleaching regimens resulted in a significant increase in WID values (all p<0.05), while no significant differences in WID and ΔWID values were found among the different groups at each time point (all p>0.05). Significant differences in ΔE00 values were observed between T1 and T3 for all groups (all p<0.05), while no significant differences in ΔE00 values were found among the different groups at any time point (all p>0.05). Significantly lower TS values were observed in the HB group than in the OB and HOB groups (p=0.006 and p=0.001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS All bleaching regimens resulted in great color improvement, and different regimens led to similar color changes at any of the evaluation time points. The sequence of treatments applying in-office bleaching or at-home bleaching did not affect the bleaching efficacy. The in-office bleaching and combined bleaching regimens yielded a higher intensity of TS than did at-home bleaching.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bo investigate the regulatory relationship between NKD1 and YWHAE and the mechanism of NKD1 for promoting tumor cell proliferation. METHODS HCT116 cells transfected with pcDNA3.0-NKD1 plasmid, SW620 cells transfected with NKD1 siRNA, HCT116 cells with stable NKD1 overexpression (HCT116-NKD1 cells), SW620 cells with nkd1knockout (SW620-nkd1-/- cells), and SW620-nkd1-/- cells transfected with pcDNA3.0-YWHAE plasmid were examined for changes in mRNA and protein expression levels of YWHAE using qRT-PCR and Western blotting. Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assay was used to detect the binding of NKD1 to the promoter region of YWHAE gene. The regulatory effect of NKD1 on YWHAE gene promoter activity was analyzed by dual-luciferase reporter gene assay, and the interaction between NKD1 and YWHAE was analyzed with immunofluorescence assay. The regulatory effect of NKD1 on glucose uptake was examined in the tumor cells. RESULTS In HCT116 cells, overexpression of NKD1 significantly enhanced the expression of YWHAE at both the mRNA and protein levels, while NKD1 knockout decreased its expression in SW620 cells (P < 0.001). ChIP assay showed that NKD1 protein was capable of binding to the YWHAE promoter sequence; dual luciferase reporter gene assay showed that NKD1 overexpression (or knockdown) in the colon cancer cells significantly enhanced (or reduced) the transcriptional activity of YWHAE promoter (P < 0.05). Immunofluorescence assay demonstrated the binding of NKD1 and YWHAE proteins in colon cancer cells. NKD1 knockout significantly reduced glucose uptake in colon cancer cells (P < 0.01), while YWHAE overexpression restored the glucose uptake in NKD1-knockout cells (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION NKD1 protein activates the transcriptional activity of YWHAE gene to promote glucose uptake in colon cancer cells.

Abstract
Objective: To analyze the drug resistance and genomic characteristics of Salmonella enterica serovar London isolated from clinical and food sources in Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021. Methods: A total of 91 Salmonella enterica serovar London strains isolated from Hangzhou City from 2017 to 2021 were analyzed for drug susceptibility, pulsed field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) typing and whole genome sequencing. Multilocus sequence typing (MLST), core genome multilocus sequence typing (cgMLST) and detection of drug resistance genes were performed by using the sequencing data. Phylogenetic analysis was conducted to compare the 91 genomes from Hangzhou City with 347 genomes from public databases. Results: No significant difference in the drug resistance rate was observed between clinical strains and food strains to 18 drugs in Hangzhou City(all P>0.05), and the multidrug resistance (MDR) rate was 75.8% (69/91). Most strains were resistant to 7 drug classes simultaneously. One strain was resistant to Polymyxin E as well as positive for mcr-1.1, and 50.5% (46/91) of the strains were resistant to Azithromycin and were positive for mph(A). All 91 Salmonella enterica serovar London strains were ST155, which were subdivided into 44 molecular types by PFGE and 82 types by cgMLST. Phylogenetic analysis showed that most strains from Hangzhou City (83/91) were clustered together, and a small number of human isolates from Europe, North America and pork isolates from Hubei and Shenzhen were mixed in the cluster. Other strains from Hangzhou City (8/91) were closely related to strains from Europe, America and Southeast Asia. Strains isolated from pork were the most closely related to clinical strains. Conclusion: The epidemic of Salmonella enterica serovar London in Hangzhou City is mainly caused by the spread of ST155 strains, which is mainly transmitted locally. At the same time, cross-region transmission to Europe, North America, Southeast Asia, and other provinces and cities in China may also occur. There is no significant difference in the drug resistance rate between clinical strains and food strains, and a high level of MDR is found in the strains. Clinical infection of Salmonella enterica serovar London may be closely related to pork consumption in Hangzhou City.

Abstract
The current study explored the slide-lengthening potentials of double and triple hemisections and the biomechanical effects of different inter-hemisection distances. Forty-eight porcine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were divided into double- and triple-hemisection groups (Groups A and B) and a control group (Group C). Group A was divided into Group A1 (distance between hemisections were the same as Group B) and Group A2 (distance between hemisections corresponded to the greatest distance between hemisections in Group B). Biomechanical evaluation, motion analysis, and finite element analysis (FEA) were performed. Failure load of intact tendon was significantly highest among groups. When the distance was 4 cm, the failure load of Group A increased significantly. When the distance between the hemisections was 0.5 or 1 cm, the failure load of Group B was significantly lower than Group A. Tendon elongation and failure load of Group B were significantly lower than those in Group A when the greatest distance between hemisections was the same. Consequently, Double hemisections had a similar lengthening ability to that of triple hemisections with the same distance, but better when the distances between extreme hemisections matched. However, the driving force for the initiation of lengthening may be greater.

Abstract
Background Our gut microbiota plays an important role in protecting the gastrointestinal (GI) tract from invading enteric pathogens. Much of this colonization resistance is mediated by limiting nutrient availability, however, enteric pathogens have evolved strategies to subvert this competition, utilizing commensal metabolites to facilitate their infection. Access to nutrients is not only crucial for a pathogen’s metabolic fitness, but can also drive the expression of virulence factors, a process high in energy demands. In addition, enteric pathogens, such as the attaching and effacing (A/E) bacterium Citrobacter rodentium, must cross the colonic mucus layer that normally prevents their direct access to the underlying epithelium. Intestinal mucus is comprised of highly glycosylated mucins, with the sugar sialic acid frequently occupying the terminal position of their O-glycan side chains. We hypothesize that C. rodentium utilizes commensal-liberated mucin sugars, such as sialic acid, as nutrients and signals to promote its virulence. Purpose This study investigates the mechanisms by which A/E pathogens reach the colonic mucosal surface, and the role played by commensal microbes in facilitating the infection. Method Expression of virulence factors secreted by C. rodentium in the presence or absence of sialic acid was analyzed by SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry. Next, we infected specific-pathogen free (SPF), germfree (GF), and previously GF C57Bl/6 mice mono-colonized with Bacteroides thetaotaomicron, a mucus-degrading commensal, to examine their susceptibility to C. rodentium and to measure the levels of free sialic acid in their feces. Result(s) Sensing of sialic acid by C. rodentium, was found to induce the secretion of several key virulence proteins, enhancing the pathogen’s migration across the colonic mucus layer and adhesion to the underlying epithelium. Access to sialic acid within the gut environment was enhanced in the presence of microbiota, as the levels of free sialic acid were low in GF mice. Interestingly, despite GF mice carrying very high C. rodentium burdens, passage across the mucus layer and infection of their colonic epithelium was impaired as compared to SPF mice. Notably, B. thetaotaomicron was found to degrade whole mucus in vitro, facilitating its consumption by C. rodentium for growth, while B. thetaotaomicron mono-colonized GF mice showed increased susceptibility to colonic infection by C. rodentium. Conclusion(s) We demonstrate that although commensal microbes promote colonization resistance, as an A/E pathogen infection establishes, specific commensal bacteria accelerate infection in the GI tract by releasing an important nutrient, ie. sialic acid, from mucus. Access to sialic acid promotes C. rodentium virulence by inducing the key virulence factors that facilitate its translocation across the mucus layer as well as adhesion to the epithelium, thereby expediting disease progression.

Abstract
Background The Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), Crohn’s Disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC) affect > 270,000 Canadians and are increasing in incidence. Ileal CD has been linked to the overgrowth of mucosal adherent E. coli. Recent studies have also implicated the adherence of Escherichia coli pathobionts to the colonic mucosa of UC patients. Using the representative UC E. coli pathobiont p19A, we recently demonstrated it aggravated chemical-induced colitis in susceptible mice, through the actions of the toxin alpha-hemolysin, and by adhering to the inflamed colonic mucosa via the adhesin FimH. It is less clear what host factors control susceptibility to the UC pathobionts. One of the potential candidates is the glycosylated mucin (Muc2) which forms the mucus layer that covers the colonic epithelium and is often impaired in UC patients. Purpose To define the role of mucus structure and function in determining susceptibility to the p19A pathobiont, and its ability to cause colitis in mice. Method In vitro growth was assessed to test p19A’s ability to utilize mucin-derived sugars as nutrients. Susceptibility to p19A was tested in two mouse models of colonic mucus impairment. The first is a mouse strain deficient in core 1 derived O-glycans in their intestinal epithelial cells (IEC C1galt1-/-), resulting in reduced Muc2 glycosylation, and thus a thin and impaired mucus barrier. The second model involves feeding wildtype (WT) C57BL/6CR mice a fiber-free (FF) diet, resulting in a significantly thinner colonic mucus layer. The mice were subsequently orally gavaged with p19A and their susceptibility determined by p19A burdens, intestinal histopathology, inflammatory cytokine and short chain fatty acid (SCFA) production. Result(s) When tested in vitro, the p19A pathobiont was found to use an array of mucin-derived sugars as sole carbon source to proliferate. Following oral gavage of WT mice fed a normal diet, immunostaining identified p19A within the colonic mucus but it did not reach the colonic mucosa or cause disease. In contrast, p19A was found at the colonic mucosal surface of mucus-defective IEC C1galt1-/- mice (as compared to IEC C1galt1flox/flox mice) and in WT mice fed a fiber-free diet. This mucosal adherence was associated with increased body weight loss during the course of infection, as well as increased p19A burdens, colonic pathology and pro-inflammatory cytokine expression. Especially fiber-free diet-fed mice showed reduced SCFA levels in their feces at baseline. When the mice were given exogenous SCFA (tributyrin) orally, p19A infection was reduced. Conclusion(s) Our results indicate that UC E. coli pathobionts are able to dwell within colonic mucus and utilize mucin sugars as nutrients. Moreover, they can reach the mucosal surface and induce colitis in hosts suffering genetic or diet-based mucus dysfunction. In part, this susceptibility reflects the important role played by mucus in the production of SCFA, suggesting potential therapeutic approaches for patients suffering UC.

Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variants feature highly mutated spike proteins with extraordinary abilities in evading antibodies isolated earlier in the pandemic. Investigation of memory B cells from patients primarily with breakthrough infections with the Delta variant enables isolation of a number of neutralizing antibodies cross-reactive to heterologous variants of concern (VOCs) including Omicron variants (BA.1-BA.4). Structural studies identify altered complementarity determining region (CDR) amino acids and highly unusual heavy chain CDR2 insertions respectively in two representative cross-neutralizing antibodies-YB9-258 and YB13-292. These features are putatively introduced by somatic hypermutation and they are heavily involved in epitope recognition to broaden neutralization breadth. Previously, insertions/deletions were rarely reported for antiviral antibodies except for those induced by HIV-1 chronic infections. These data provide molecular mechanisms for cross-neutralization of heterologous SARS-CoV-2 variants by antibodies isolated from Delta variant infected patients with implications for future vaccination strategy.

Abstract
ABO incompatible(ABO-I) liver grafts will affect the prognosis of liver transplantation. With the improvement of perioperative treatment,including plasma exchange,rituximab,splenectomy,etc.,the prognosis of ABO-I liver transplantation has been greatly improved. Because children's immune systems are not fully developed,the perioperative management of ABO-I pediatric liver transplantation is significantly different from that of adults. Reducing the perioperative anti-donor ABO antibody titer is the key to the perioperative management of ABO-I liver transplantation. This article summarizes literatures on the perioperative management of ABO-I pediatric liver transplantation, including the perioperative anti-rejection regimen in pediatric recipients of different ages, splenectomy, postoperative monitoring and postoperative complications, etc.

Abstract
The electrocatalytic carbon dioxide (CO2 ) reduction is a promising approach for converting this greenhouse gas into value-added chemicals, while the capability of producing products with longer carbon chains (Cn >3) is limited. Herein, we demonstrate the Br-assisted electrocatalytic oxidation of ethylene (C2 H4 ), a major CO2 electroreduction product, into 2-bromoethanol by electro-generated bromine on metal phthalocyanine catalysts. Due to the preferential formation of Br2 over *O or Cl2 to activate the C=C bond, a high partial current density of producing 2-bromoethanol (46.6 mA⋅cm-2 ) was obtained with 87.2 % Faradaic efficiency. Further coupling with the electrocatalytic nitrite reduction to ammonia at the cathode allowed the production of triethanolamine with six carbon atoms. Moreover, by coupling a CO2 electrolysis cell for in situ C2 H4 generation and a C2 H4 oxidation/nitrite reduction cell, the capability of upgrading of CO2 and nitrite into triethanolamine was demonstrated.

Abstract
Retest-positive severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral RNA, as a unique phenomenon among discharged individuals, has been demonstrated to be safe in the community. Still, the underlying mechanism of viral lingering is less investigated. In this study, first, we find that the frequency of viral RNA-positive retesting differs among variants. Higher ratios of viral RNA-positive retest were more frequently observed among Delta (61.41%, 514 of 837 cases) and Omicron (39.53%, 119 of 301 cases) infections than among ancestral viral infection (7.27%, 21 of 289 cases). Second, the tissues where viral RNA reoccurred were altered. Delta RNA reoccurred mainly in the upper respiratory tract (90%), but ancestral virus RNA reoccurred mainly in the gastrointestinal tract (71%). Third, vaccination did not reduce the frequency of viral RNA-positive retests, despite high concentrations of viral-specific antibodies in the blood. Finally, 37 of 55 (67.27%) Delta-infected patients receiving neutralizing antibody therapy become viral RNA retest positive when high concentrations of neutralizing antibodies still patrol in the blood. Altogether, our findings suggest that the presentence of high titers of neutralizing antibodies in the blood is incompetent in clearing residual viral RNA in the upper respiratory tract.

Abstract
Objective: To investigate the clinical features of children with chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO), and raise awareness among clinicians. Methods: In this retrospective study, 18 patients with CNO who were diagnosed in Children's Hospital of Fudan University from January 2015 to December 2021 were included. Results: Eighteen children with CNO (12 males, 6 females) were identified. Their age at onset was 9 (5, 11) years, the delay in diagnosis was 2 (1, 6) months, and follow-up-was 17 (8, 34) months. The most common symptoms were fever in 14 children, as well as bone pain and (or) arthralgia in 14 children. In terms of laboratory results, normal white blood cell counts were observed at onset in 17 patients; increased erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) in all patients; increased C reactive protein (CRP) over the normal value in 14 patients. Of the 18 patients, 2 had positive antinuclear antibodies, while none had positive human leukocyte antigen-B27 or rheumatoid factor. Imaging examination revealed that all the patients had symmetrical and multifocal skeletal lesions. The number of structural lesions detected by imaging investigation was 8 (6, 11). The most frequently affected bones were tibia in 18 patients and femur in 17 patients. Bone biopsy was conducted in 14 patients and acute or chronic osteomyelitis manifested with inflammatory cells infiltration were detected. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) found bone lesions in all the patients and bone scintigraphy were positive in 13 patients. All the patients were treated with nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, among whom 10 cases also treated with oral glucocorticoids, 9 cases with traditional disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs, 8 cases with bisphosphonates and 6 cases with tumor necrosis factor inhibitors. The pediatric chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis disease activity score, increased by 70% or more in 13 patients within the initial 6-month follow-up. Conclusions: The clinical manifestations of CNO are lack of specificity. The first symptom of CNO is fever, with or without bone pain and (or) arthralgia, with normal peripheral blood leukocytes, elevated CRP and (or) ESR. Whole body bone scanning combined with MRI can early detect osteomyelitis at subclinical sites, and improve the diagnostic rate of CNO.
