Abstract
The emergence of cultured meat presents the potential for personalized food additive manufacturing, offering a solution to address future food resource scarcity. Processing raw materials and products in synthetic food products poses challenges in identifying hazards, impacting the entire industrial chain during the industry's further evolution. It is crucial to examine the correlation of biological information at different levels and to reveal the temporal dynamics jointly. Proposed active prevention method includes four aspects: (i) Investigating the molecular-level mechanism underlying the binding and dissociation of hazards with proteins represents a novel approach to mitigate matrix effect. (ii) Identifying distinct fragments is a pivotal advancement toward developing a novel screening strategy for hazards throughout the food chain. (iii) Designing an artificial intelligence model-based approach to acquire multi-dimensional histology data also holds significant potential for various applications. (iv) Integrating multimodal data is a practical approach to enhance evaluation and feedback control accuracy.

Abstract
The spectral database-based mass spectrometry (MS) matching strategy is versatile for structural annotating in ingredient fluctuation profiling mediated by external interferences. However, the systematic variability of MS pool attributable to aliasing peaks and inadequacy of present spectral database resulted in a substantial metabolic feature depletion. An amended procedure termed multiple-charges overlap peaks extraction algorithm (MCOP) was proposed involving identifying collision-trigged dissociation precursor ions through iteratively matching mass features of fragmentations to expand the spectral reference library. We showcased the versatility and utility of established strategy in an investigation centered on the stimulation of milk mediated by diphenylolpropane (BPA). MCOP enabled efficient unknown annotations at metabolite-lipid-protein level, which elevated the accuracy of substance annotation to 85.3% after manual validation. Arginase and α-amylase (|r| > 0.75, p < 0.05) were first identified as the crucial issues via graph neural network-based virtual screening in the abnormal metabolism of urea triggered by BPA, resulting in the accumulation of arginine (original: 1.7 μg kg-1 1.7 times) and maltodextrin (original: 6.9 μg kg-1 2.9 times) and thus, exciting the potential dietary risks. Conclusively, MCOP demonstrated generalisation and scalability and substantially advanced the discovery of unknown metabolites for complex matrix samples, thus deciphering dark matter in multi-omics.

Abstract
Ammonium nitrogen (NH4 +-N) is essential for fruit tree growth, but the impact of excess NH4 +-N from fertilizer on evergreen citrus trees is unclear. In a climate chamber, 8-month-old citrus plants were exposed to five different hydroponic NH4 +-N concentrations (0, 5, 10, 15 and 20 mm) for 1 month to study effects of NH4 +-N on growth characteristics, N uptake, metabolism, antioxidant enzymes and osmotic regulatory substances. Application of 10 mm NH4 +-N adversely affected root plasma membrane integrity, root physiological functions, and plant biomass. MDA, CAT, POD, APX and SOD content were significantly correlated with leaf N metabolic enzyme activity (GOGAT, GDH, GS and NR). GDH was the primary enzyme involved in NH4 +-N assimilation in leaves, while the primary pathway involved in roots was GS-GOGAT. Under comparatively high NH4 + addition, roots were the main organs involved in NH4 + utilization in citrus seedlings. Our results demonstrated that variations in NH4 + concentration and enzyme activity in various organs are associated with more effective N metabolism in roots than in leaves to prevent NH4 + toxicity in evergreen woody citrus plants. These results provide insight into the N forms used by citrus plants that are important for N fertilizer management.

Abstract
SCOPE The antiobesity function of probiotics has been declared, while the application in high-risk patients and coding side effect has focused attention to postbiotics. This investigation profiles the mechanism of postbiotics affecting lipid digestion at molecular level, and establishes a momentous foundation for the clinical application of postbiotics in obesity suppression. METHODS AND RESULTS An operational framework for butter digestion is constructed to collect the digests in the intestine at 0, 40, 80, and 120 min with various postbiotics supplement. A total of 227 lipids and 414 metabolites are detected by pseudo-targeted lipidomics integrated with the long short-term memory-based metabolomics, and the triacylglycerol (TG, from 134.1 to 184.7 mg kg-1 ) and diacylglycerol (DG, from 4.2 to 8.4 mg kg-1 ) are identified as significantly different lipids with or without postbiotics supplement. A total of eight substances related to the inhibition of gastric lipase and pancreatic lipase are screened through the molecular simulation computation in silicon and enzymatic reaction kinetics, and thus curtailing the bioaccessibility of lipids. CONCLUSIONS Lactobacillus casei JCM1134-derived postbiotics propel the structure of lipase to aggregate by increasing the α-helix, and thus hampering the digestion of triglycerides through noncompetitive inhibition.

Abstract
Scandal of detecting 1,2-propanediol (PD) in milk brought a crisis to the trust of consumers in dairy industry, and investigations focused effect of PD on digestive behavior of milk were still restricted. Long short-term memory amalgamated to quasi-targeted lipidomics was applied to monitor dynamics changes of lipids during digestion and the pseudo-first-order kinetic model elucidated that PD elevated the digestibility of lipid with the degradation rate (S-1) ranged from 4440.31 to 5665.59 and mediated the transition of α-helices (26.46% to 19.07% of pancreatic lipase and 29.89% to 23.37% of gastric lipase) covering active center in lipase to random curl (48.25% to 51.17% of pancreatic lipase and 41.58% to 44.57% of gastric lipase) and β folding (9.14% to 4.67% of pancreatic lipase and 6.52% to 10.05% of gastric lipase), ultimately upregulating the lipase activity and further intervening lipid nutrients utilization in milk. This study provided a critical insight about the impact of PD contamination at trace concentrations on the nutritional value of milk fat during digestion.

Abstract
In humans, teeth are replaced only once, and the successional dental lamina (SDL) of the permanent tooth is maintained in a quiescent state until adolescence. Recently, we showed that biomechanical stress generated by the rapid growth of the deciduous tooth inhibits SDL development via integrin β1-RUNX2 signaling at embryonic day 60 (E60) in miniature pigs. However, the mechanism by which RUNX2 regulates SDL initiation within the SDL stem cell niche remains unclear. In the current study, we transcriptionally profiled single cells from SDL and surrounding mesenchyme at E60 and identified the landscape of cellular heterogeneity. We then identified a specific fibroblast subtype in the dental follicle mesenchyme between the deciduous tooth and the SDL of the permanent tooth (DFDP), which constitutes the inner part of the niche (deciduous tooth side). Compared with traditional dental follicle cells, the specific expression profile of DFDP was identified and found to be related to biomechanical stress. Subsequently, we found that RUNX2 could bind to the enhancer regions of Fbln1 (gene of fibulin-1), one of the marker genes for DFDP. Through gain- and loss-of-function experiments, we proved that the biomechanical stress-mediated RUNX2-fibulin-1 axis inhibits the initiation of SDL by maintaining SDL niche homeostasis.

Abstract
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVE(S) MR-guided linear accelerators have been commercialized making MR-only planning and adaptation an appealing alternative circumventing MR-CT registration. However, obtaining daily contrast-enhanced MR images can be prohibitive due to the increased risk of side effects from repeated contrast injections. In this work, we evaluate the quality of contrast-enhanced multi-modal MR image synthesis network GRMM-GAN (gradient regularized multi-modal multi-discrimination sparse-attention fusion generative adversarial network) for MR-guided radiation therapy. MATERIALS/METHODS With IRB approval, we trained the GRMM-GAN based on 165 abdominal MR studies from 65 patients. Each study included T2, T1 pre-contrast (T1pre), and T1 contrast enhanced (T1ce) images. The two pre-contrast MR modalities, T2 and T1pre images were adopted as inputs for GRMM-GAN, and the T1ce image at the portal venous phase was used as an output. Ten MR scans containing 21 liver tumors were selected for contouring analysis. A Turing test was first given to six radiation oncologists, in which 100 real T1ce and synthetic T1ce image slices are randomly given to the radiation oncologists to determine the authenticity of the synthesis. We then invited two radiation oncologists (RadOnc 1 and RadOnc2) to manually contour the 21 liver tumors independently on the real T1ce images. RadOnc2 then performed contouring on the respective synthetic T1ce MRs. DICE coefficient (defined as the intersection over the average of two volumes) and Hausdorff distance (HD, measuring how far two volumes are from each other) were used as analysis metrics. The DICE coefficients were calculated from the two radiation oncologists' contours on the real T1ce MR for each tumor. The DICE coefficients were also calculated from RadOnc 2's contours on real and synthetic MRs. Besides, tumor center shifts were extracted. The tumor center of mass coordinates was extracted from real and synthetic volumes. The difference in the coordinates indicated the shifts in the superior-inferior (SI), right-left (RL), and anterior-posterior (AP) directions between real and synthetic tumor volumes. RESULTS An average of 52.3% test score was achieved from the six radiation oncologists, which is close to random guessing. RadOnc 1 and RadOnc 2, who had participated in the contouring analysis, achieved an average DICE of 0.91±0.02 from tumor volumes drawn on the real T1ce MRs. This result sets the inter-operator uncertainty baseline in the real clinical setting. RadOnc 2 achieved an average DICE (real vs. synth) of 0.90±0.04 and HD of 4.76±1.82 mm. Only sub-millimeter (SI: 0.67 mm, RL: 0.41 mm, AP: 0.39 mm) tumor center shifts were observed in all three directions. CONCLUSION The GRMM-GAN method has the potential for MR-guided liver radiation when contrast agents cannot be administered daily and provide synthetic contrast-enhanced MR for better tumor targeting. The network can produce synthetic MR images with satisfactory contour agreement and geometric integrity.

Abstract
The anti-obesity potential of probiotics has been widely reported, however their utilization in high-risk patients and potential adverse reactions have led researchers to focus their attention on postbiotics. Herein, pseudo-targeted lipidomics linked with deep learning-based metabolomics was utilized to dynamically characterize the postbiotic potential of heat-inactivated Lactobacillus casei JCM1134 supplementation after a high-fat diet in treating obesity. MG (ranged from 423.0 ± 1.4 mg L-1 to 331.45 ± 2.3 mg L-1), LPC (ranged from 13.1 ± 0.08 mg L-1 to 10.2 ± 0.1 mg L-1) and Cho (ranged from 9.0 ± 0.3 mg L-1 to 5.7 ± 0.2 mg L-1) in intestinal digestive products were significantly decreased, indicating that the digestion of lipid was inhibited. 8-C-glucosylorobol, from Lactobacillus casei, was confirmed from quantitative results and molecular simulation calculations to inhibit the transformation of TG, DG, and ChE through weakening hydrogen bonds between enzymes and substrates and reducing the binding energy. Pristimerin and 2,4-quinolinediol can effectively reduce the hydrogen bonding force between PC and phospholipase A2, which were related to the obstruction of phosphatidylcholine digestion. This research deepened the understanding of the mechanism underlying the inactivated probiotics affecting lipid digestion, establishing the critical groundwork for clinical application of probiotics in inhibiting obesity.

Abstract
The scandal of detecting 1, 2-propanediol (PL) in milk brought a crisis to the trust of consumers in the dairy industry, and the potential toxicity of PL has aroused the public concern about dietary exposure. A total of 200 pasteurized milk samples were collected from 15 regions, and the quantity of PL ranged between 0 and 0.31 g kg-1. Pseudo-targeted quantitative metabolomics integrated with proteomics demonstrated that PL enhanced the reduction of κ-casein, β-casein, and 107 substances (41 amines and 66 amides) containing amide bonds. Pathway enrichment and topological analysis indicated that PL induced the metabolism of lipids, amino acids, oligosaccharide nucleotides, and alkaloids by accelerating the rate of nucleophilic reaction, and acetylcholinesterase, sarcosine oxidase, and prolyl 4-hydroxylase were determined as the vital enzymes related to the degradation of above nutrients. The results of molecular simulation calculation illustrated that the number of hydrogen bonds between acetylcholinesterase, sarcosine oxidase, and substrate increased to 2 and 3, respectively, while the position of hydrogen bonds between prolyl 4-hydroxylase and proline was shifted, indicating the change of conformation and the enhancement of hydrogen bond force were essential factors for the up-regulation of enzyme activity. This study first revealed the mechanism of deposition and transformation of PL in milk, which contributed to the knowledge of the quality control of milk and provided vital indicators to evaluate the adverse risks of PL in dairy products.

Abstract
The potential of probiotics to benefit digestion has been widely reported, while its utilization in high-risk patients and potential adverse reactions have focused interest on postbiotics. A variable data-independent acquisition (vDIA)-based spatial-omics strategy integrated with unsupervised variational autoencoders was applied to profile the functional mechanism underlying the action of Lactobacillus casei-derived postbiotic supplementation in goat milk digestion in an infant digestive system, from a metabolomics-peptidomics-proteomics perspective. Amide and olefin derivatives were proved to elevate the activities of pepsin and trypsin through hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic forces based on allosteric effects, and recognition of nine endopeptidases and their cleavage to serine, proline, and aspartate were introduced by postbiotics, thereby promoting the generation of hydrophilic peptides and elevating the bioaccessibility of goat milk protein. The peptides originating from αs1-casein, β-casein, β-lactoglobulin, Ig-like domain-containing protein, κ-casein, and serum amyloid A protein, with multiple bioactivities including angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE)-inhibitory, osteoanabolic, dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV) inhibitory, antimicrobial, bradykinin-potentiating, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities, were significantly increased in the postbiotic supplementation group, which was also considered to potentially prevent necrotizing enterocolitis through inhibiting the multiplication of pathogenic bacteria and blocking signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells inflammatory pathways. This research deepened the understanding of the mechanism underlying the postbiotics affecting goat milk digestion, which established a critical groundwork for the clinical application of postbiotics in infant complementary foods.

Abstract
The fermentation-driving ability of Daqu has been widely reported, while the potential influence of substances in Daqu on Baijiu flavor formation has attracted increasing interest. Pseudo-targeted metabolomics integrated proteomics combined with sensory evaluation strategy was applied to investigate the correlation between flavor characteristics and metabolic profiling of Daqu, and the mechanism of flavor formation was also elucidated. The 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3-one (3.5 mg kg-1) and 2,3-dihydro-1 h-inden-5-ol (894.3 μg kg-1) were identified as the unique substances in qingcha qu, which were vital for raspberry flavor formation and associated with the up-regulation of amino acid metabolism. The dec-9-enoic acid (37.4 mg kg-1) was screened out as the substance related to the formation of cream flavor in hongxin qu produced through the shortening of fatty acid carbon chains and unsaturated modification of long chain fatty and acceleration of carbon metabolism in hongxin qu mediated by filamentous Aspergillus spp. was related to the smoky aroma enhancement.

Abstract
In this paper, we investigate prenucleation and heterogeneous nucleation in the liquid Pb/solid Al system as an example of systems with large lattice misfit using molecular dynamics simulation. Solid Pb and Al have a large positive lattice misfit (f) of 18.2% along the densely packed [110] direction. This study reveals that prenucleation occurs at 600 K (an undercooling of 15 K), and a 2-dimensional (2D) ordered structure forms at the interface with a coincidence site lattice (CSL) between the first Pb and first Al layers. The CSL accommodates the major part of the f, and only a small residual lattice misfit (fr) of 1.9% remains. The formation of the CSL transforms the original substrate into a considerably potent nucleant, where the first Pb layer becomes the new surface layer of the substrate. At an undercooling of about 22 K, nucleation proceeds by merging 2D ordered structure through structural templating: the second Pb layer is epitaxial to the CSL Pb layer, the third Pb layer largely accommodates the fr, and the fourth Pb layer is a nearly perfect crystalline plane. Further analysis indicates that the interface with the CSL has a lower interfacial energy than with a cube-to-cube orientation relationship. For the first time, we established that the CSL was an effective mechanism to accommodate the f for systems with a large positive misfits. Heterogeneous nucleation is governed not by a single mechanism (misfit dislocations in Turnbull's model), but instead by various mechanisms depending on f. This study sheds new light on the atomistic mechanism of heterogeneous nucleation.

Abstract
The scandal of detecting the flavoring solvent propane-1,2-diol (PD) in milk has brought a crisis to the trust of consumers in the dairy industry, while its deposition and transformation are still indistinct. Pseudo-targeted lipidomics revealed that PD accelerated the degradation of glycerolipid (33,638.3 ± 28.9 to 104,54.2 ± 28.4 mg kg-1), phosphoglyceride (467.4 ± 8.2 to 56.6 ± 4.2 mg kg-1), and sphingolipids (11.4 ± 0.3 to 0.7 ± 0.2 mg kg-1), which extremely decreased the milk quality. Recoveries and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of the established method were 85.0-109.9 and 0.1-14.9%, respectively, indicating that the approach was credible. Protein-lipid interactions demonstrated that 10 proteins originating from fat globules were upregulated significantly and the activities of 7 enzymes related to lipid degradation were improved. Diacylglycerol cholinephosphotransferase was the only enzyme with decreased activity, and the molecular docking results indicated that PD adjusted its activity through regulating the conformation of the active center and weakening the hydrogen bond force between the enzyme and substrate. This study firstly revealed the mechanism of deposition and transformation of PD in milk, which contributed to the knowledge on the milk quality control and provided key indicators to evaluate the adverse risks of PD in dairy products.

Abstract
The potential of frequency comb spectroscopy has aroused great interest in generating mid-infrared frequency combs in the integrated photonic setting. However, despite remarkable progress in microresonators and quantum cascade lasers, the availability of suitable mid-IR comb sources remains scarce. Here, we generate mid-IR microcombs relying on cascaded three-wave-mixing for the first time. By pumping a CdSiP2 microresonator at 1.55 µm wavelength with a low power continuous wave laser, we generate χ(2) frequency combs at 3.1 µm wavelength, with a span of about 30 nm. We observe ordinary combs states with a line spacing of the free spectral range of the resonator, and combs where the sideband numbers around the pump and half-harmonic alternate, forming staggered patterns of spectral lines. Our scheme for mid-IR microcomb generation is compatible with integrated telecom lasers. Therefore, it has the potential to be used as a simple and fully integrated mid-IR comb source, relying on only one single material.

Abstract
The last steps of cellular respiration-an essential metabolic process in plants-are carried out by mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. This process involves a chain of multi-subunit membrane protein complexes (complexes I-V) that form higher-order assemblies called supercomplexes. Although supercomplexes are the most physiologically relevant form of the oxidative phosphorylation complexes, their functions and structures remain mostly unknown. Here we present the cryogenic electron microscopy structure of the supercomplex I + III2 from Vigna radiata (mung bean). The structure contains the full subunit complement of complex I, including a newly assigned, plant-specific subunit. It also shows differences in the mitochondrial processing peptidase domain of complex III2 relative to a previously determined supercomplex with complex IV. The supercomplex interface, while reminiscent of that in other organisms, is plant specific, with a major interface involving complex III2's mitochondrial processing peptidase domain and no participation of complex I's bridge domain. The complex I structure suggests that the bridge domain sets the angle between the enzyme's two arms, limiting large-scale conformational changes. Moreover, complex I's catalytic loops and its response in active-to-deactive assays suggest that, in V. radiata, the resting complex adopts a non-canonical state and can sample deactive- or open-like conformations even in the presence of substrate. This study widens our understanding of the possible conformations and behaviour of complex I and supercomplex I + III2. Further studies of complex I and its supercomplexes in diverse organisms are needed to determine the universal and clade-specific mechanisms of respiration.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The randomized, double-blind OlympiA trial compared 1 year of the oral poly(adenosine diphosphate-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, olaparib, to matching placebo as adjuvant therapy for patients with pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in germline BRCA1 or BRCA2 (gBRCA1/2pv) and high-risk, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative, early breast cancer (EBC). The first pre-specified interim analysis (IA) previously demonstrated statistically significant improvement in invasive disease-free survival (IDFS) and distant disease-free survival (DDFS). The olaparib group had fewer deaths than the placebo group, but the difference did not reach statistical significance for overall survival (OS). We now report the pre-specified second IA of OS with updates of IDFS, DDFS, and safety. PATIENTS AND METHODS One thousand eight hundred and thirty-six patients were randomly assigned to olaparib or placebo following (neo)adjuvant chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation therapy if indicated. Endocrine therapy was given concurrently with study medication for hormone receptor-positive cancers. Statistical significance for OS at this IA required P < 0.015. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 3.5 years, the second IA of OS demonstrated significant improvement in the olaparib group relative to the placebo group [hazard ratio 0.68; 98.5% confidence interval (CI) 0.47-0.97; P = 0.009]. Four-year OS was 89.8% in the olaparib group and 86.4% in the placebo group (Δ 3.4%, 95% CI -0.1% to 6.8%). Four-year IDFS for the olaparib group versus placebo group was 82.7% versus 75.4% (Δ 7.3%, 95% CI 3.0% to 11.5%) and 4-year DDFS was 86.5% versus 79.1% (Δ 7.4%, 95% CI 3.6% to 11.3%), respectively. Subset analyses for OS, IDFS, and DDFS demonstrated benefit across major subgroups. No new safety signals were identified including no new cases of acute myeloid leukemia or myelodysplastic syndrome. CONCLUSION With 3.5 years of median follow-up, OlympiA demonstrates statistically significant improvement in OS with adjuvant olaparib compared with placebo for gBRCA1/2pv-associated EBC and maintained improvements in the previously reported, statistically significant endpoints of IDFS and DDFS with no new safety signals.

Abstract
Brown fermented goat milk as an excellent source of bioactive peptides has only been partially elucidated. Meticulously synthesized MOF@MG as magnetic sorbent for enriching endogenous peptides owned higher reproducibility and uniform distribution of peptides PI compared with ultrafiltration. Combined with UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap, fermentation for 12 h in brown goat milk with the highest overall acceptable degree through sensory evaluation was utilized to explore the transformation of peptides and health benefits, with trypsin or plasmin hydrolyzing proteins and aminopeptidase or carboxypeptidase hydrolyzing peptides to small peptides or amino acids. A total of 1317 peptides were identified by database matching (1259) and de novo sequencing (58), among 18 peptides could originate from gene-independent enzymatic formation and top 25 characteristic peptides were quantified with concentration ranging from 0.12 to 6.40 mg L-1. Bioinformatic analysis results indicated that brown fermented goat milk possesses higher health benefits because of more than 50 peptides with potential bioactivity.

Abstract
The effect of peptides on the flavor profile of Baijiu is unclear as a result of their trace concentrations in the complex matrix, and therefore, the study involving the interaction mechanism between peptides and flavor compounds is limited. In this study, short-chain peptides (amino acid number between 2 and 4, SCPs) associated with the Feng-flavor Baijiu (FFB) were comprehensively analyzed by a dedicated workflow using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography Q Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry, flavor reconstitution experiments, sensory analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) analysis. The concentrations of 96 SCPs intimately related with six different grades of honey aroma intensity in FFB were quantified (0.12-155.01 μg L-1) after multivariable analysis, Spearman's correlation analysis (ρ ≥ 0.7), and confirmation with synthetic standards, and 32 dominant odorants with an odor activity value of ≥1 in FFB with the highest intensity of honey aroma were quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and gas chromatography-flame ionization detection analyses. The results of flavor reconstitution experiments and sensory analysis indicated that the SCPs can obviously influence the honey aroma with amplifying the fruity, sweet, and flora flavor odor characters (p < 0.05) while significantly reducing the acidic character (p < 0.001), which could be attributed to the most stable complex structure between SCPs and odor-active compounds calculated by DFT being butanoic acid, followed by β-damascenone, 3-methylbutanal, and ethyl hexanoate, and the multiple sites as a hydrogen bond donor or acceptor in SCPs can form a stable ternary structure with water and ethanol inside the peptide chain or carboxyl terminal of SCPs, consequently improving the stability of the Baijiu system. The results highlighted the important role of SCPs on the volatiles in Baijiu and laid the foundation for further facilitating the sensory quality of Baijiu products.

Abstract
Ethyl carbamate (EC) is carcinogen occurring naturally in fermented foods, while the EC formation pattern in Feng-flavor Baijiu during Mare Nectaris storage and magnetic field treatment remains controversial. In this work, variation of EC in Mare Nectaris and magnetic field were investigated for the first time through ultra high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap). Quantification results revealed that EC decreased significantly in the stage of 3-9 years and kept at 12.4 μg L-1 after 10 years of aging. Arginine succinate synthase (ASS) and urease were deemed as vital factors for EC decomposition. Degradation effetc of EC in 250 mT is simillar to that of EC in Baijiu stored in Mare Nectaris for 8 years. This is due to that aging process was accelerated by magnetic field and the content of total acid in Baijiu was increased, creating a favorable environment for decomposition of EC and urea.

Abstract
Selenium (Se)-enriched green tea has been recognized as a possible source of supplemental Se, while the structural and physiological activities of Se-containing flavone are still unclear. In this study, a Se-containing flavone was isolated from Se-enriched green tea by high-speed counter-current chromatography (HSCCC) and characterized through UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap, FT-IR and NMR. Results proved that HSeO3- can be combined with the alcohol hydroxyl of 2-phenylchromone in flavone and the content of Se-containing flavone in tea was 15690.4 μg L-1. Additionally, Se-containing flavone can effectively inhibit the production of nitric oxide (NO), and downregulate expression of TNF-α and IL-6. Compared with regular flavone extracted from green tea (43.24 pg mL-1), release of IL-10 was higher in Se-containing flavone group (53.37 pg mL-1), indicating that Se-containing flavone played an important role in the process of severe inflammatory injury. The results indicated that Se-containing flavone was an attractive natural ingredient for developing novel functional foods.

Abstract
A novel strategy for screening and identifying peptides present in Baijiu was developed based on magnetic solid-phase extraction with magnetic S-doped graphene (M-G-S) as adsorbent combined with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with high resolution tandem mass spectrometry. In total, 28 peptides consisting of amino acids from 3 to 9 were preliminarily identified, and significantly higher in the number than that of direct concentration and SPE with C18 as the adsorbent. Six peptides were confirmed with their corresponding synthetic reference standards by comparing their retention time, high resolution MS/MS spectra, and NMR spectroscopic studies. Parallel reaction monitoring integrated with the internal standard method was utilized to quantify identified peptides with concentrations ranging from 1.14 to 10.25 ng mL-1, and prediction results of bioactivity comprising antioxidation or ACE inhibitors were obtained. These discoveries were conducive to understanding the versatility benefit of Baijiu and paved the way to study the interaction between peptides and volatile substances.

Abstract
The current study applied an untargeted metabolomics approach by ultra high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-orbitaltrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Oritrap-MS) to identify the chemical composition of irradiated goat meat and investigate the effect of irradiation on its metabolic profile and meat quality. A total of 103 metabolites were identified as differential metabolites responsible for metabolic changes in irradiated goat meat, which were involved in phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis, phenylalanine metabolism and purine metabolism. Differential metabolites comprising amino acids, nucleotides and their derivatives were determined as the discriminating factors responsible for the meat quality during irradiation. Specifically, the levels of L-phenylalanine, L-isoleucine, L-histidine, guanosine, guanine, creatinine, glutathione and nicotinic acid were increased while inosine 5'-monophosphate (IMP) and guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP) were decreased. Overall, except for L-phenylalanine and guanine, other related metabolites significantly decreased with storage. This study contributes to a comprehensive understanding of the effect of irradiation doses and storage time on goat meat metabolism at the molecular level, so as to assess the quality of irradiated goat meat. Satisfactory results with linearity (R2 > 0.995), precision (RSD less than 8.9%) and recovery (83%-106%) were obtained, demonstrating that the untargeted mebabolomics approach was appropriate for monitoring the changes of small molecular metabolites in irradiated goat meat and irradiation is a feasible method for goat meat preservation.

Abstract
Ageing is a time-consuming step in Baijiu manufacture, stimulating an urgent requirement of optimization. Variation of artificial aged Feng-flavor Baijiu by inhomogeneous alternating magnetic field was investigated through quantitative foodomics combined with confirmed ultra high performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-orbitaltrap high resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap). A total of 153 substances were identified with significant variables (p < 0.05, VIP > 1) and 16 metabolic pathways related to Feng-flavor Baijiu functions were obtained. The method showed good accuracy with recovery values between 80.4% and 117.4% and precision lower than 9.8% for all characteristic substances. Limit of detection (LOD) was ranging between 1.6 and 10.0 μg/L with R2 ≥ 0.99. Factor analysis demonstrated that ageing degree of magnetized samples increased with rise of magnetic field intensity and the maximum effect was equivalent to 12.81 years of natural ageing. The results of stoichiometric analysis revealed that regulation of magnetic field on proportion in Baijiu was mainly performed through entropy and the hydrogen bond strength of Baijiu molecules. Sensory evaluation illustrated that score of Baijiu samples reached the highest at 150 mT, demonstrating that magnetic field treatment can be considered as an optimized ageing means for Feng-flavor Baijiu.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT) on treatment response and survival outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed multiple myeloma (MM) receiving treatments with proteasome inhibitors and lenalidomide. METHODS We retrospectively collected the clinical data of newly diagnosed MM patients, who were eligible for ASCT and received proteasome inhibitors or lenalidomide-based treatment in our hospital from January, 2015 to December, 2019. The patients were divided into transplantation group and non-transplantation group, and in transplantation group, the patients received 4 to 6 courses of induction therapy with proteasome inhibitors or lenalidomide before ASCT, while those in the non-transplantation group received more than 8 courses of induction and consolidation therapy with proteasome inhibitors or lenalidomide-based regimens. The therapeutic efficacy and survival outcomes of the patinets were compared between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 105 patients were enrolled in the study, including 48 (45.7%) in transplantation group and 57 (54.3%) in non-transplantation group. The two groups were matched for gender, age and treatment response after 4 courses of induction therapy (P > 0.05). The rate of optimal response before relapse differed significantly between the two groups (P=0.000), and the patients receiving ASCT had significantly higher rates of complete response (85.4% vs 54.4%, P= 0.001) and very good partial response or better (95.8% vs 73.7%, P=0.002) than those without ASCT. At the end of follow-up, the median progression-free survival in the transplantation group was not reached, as compared with 29 months in the nontransplantation group (P=0.013). The median overall survival (OS) in the two groups was not reached, but the OS was better in the transplant group than in the non-transplant group (P=0.022). CONCLUSION ASCT can further improve the depth of remission and survival outcomes in patients with newly diagnosed MM receiving treatments with proteasome inhibitors and lenalidomide.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS We aimed to evaluate the association between different obese phenotypes with carotid artery plaque (CAP) event. METHOD AND RESULTS The current retrospective cohort study was performed in 32,778 Chinese adults (19,221 men and 13,557 women, aged 41.9 ± 11.0 years). Obese phenotypes were assessed based on baseline body mass index (<24.0 vs. ≥24.0 kg/m2) and metabolic characteristics (health vs. unhealth). All the participants were further classified into four groups: metabolic health and normal weight (MHNW), metabolic unhealth and normal weight (MUHNW), metabolic health and overweight (MHO), and metabolic unhealth and overweight (MUHO). Ultrasound B-mode imaging was annually performed to evaluate CAP throughout the study. We have identified 2142 CAP cases during 5-year follow-up. Comparing with the MHNW group, the hazard ratios for the risk of incident CAP was 2.44 (95% CI:1.92 and 3.09) for the MUHNW group, 1.52 (95% CI:1.06 and 2.18) for the MHO group, and 1.8 (95% CI:1.4 and 2.33) for the MUHO group. The association was more pronounced in young adults (<65 y) than that in aged adults (≥65 y). Sensitivity analysis generated similar results with the main analysis. CONCLUSION MUHNW, MHO, and MUHO were associated with the risk of CAP.

Abstract
AIMS Aims of this study are to elucidate the molecular mechanism of copper-improved thiacloprid (THI) degradation by Ensifer adhaerens TMX-23 and characterize copper resistance of this strain. METHODS AND RESULTS Resting cells of E. adhaerens TMX-23 were used to degrade THI, with formation of THI amide and 98·31% of 0·59 mmol l-1 THI was degraded in 100 min. The addition of copper improved the degradation of THI and showed little inhibitory effects on the growth of E. adhaerens TMX-23. E. adhaerens TMX-23 degraded THI to THI amide by nitrile hydratases (NhcA and NhpA). QPCR analysis indicated that the expression of nhpA was up-regulated in the presence of copper. E. adhaerens TMX-23 nitrile hydratases were purified, and enzyme assay of NhpA exhibited the highest NHase activity toward THI. The addition of copper activated the activity of NhcA. Soil degradation experiment indicated that E. adhaerens TMX-23 could quickly eliminate THI residual in copper-added soil. CONCLUSIONS Copper improved THI degradation by E. adhaerens TMX-23 was attributed to the induced expression of nhpA and activated NhcA. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY This study broadens the investigation of regulatory mechanism of NHase expression and provided theoretical basis for using metal-resistant microbes to degrade pesticide in heavy metal co-contaminated environments.

Abstract
Currently, there are more than 1000 varieties of synthetic sulfonamides universally used as antibiotics causing severe results of potential carcinogenicity and drug resistance for human health due to excessive residue of animal-derived food. A facile and novel approach for untargeted screening of sulfonamides (SAs) and metabolites was proposed based on magnetic solid-phase extraction-ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography-tandem high-resolution mass spectrometry (MSPE-UHPLC-HRMS). Compared with QuEChERS without the clean-up procedure and SPE in terms of matrix effect and absolute recovery, magnetic doped S graphene (S-doping level: 2.82%) synthesized via a solid-state microwave approach and the aggregation wrap mechanism was used as a novel adsorbent for nonspecific extraction of desired analytes by the noncovalent interaction between electron-deficient thiophene sulfur and electron donors such as amino or amide as well as π-π stacking interactions. Combined with variable data-independent acquisition, characteristic fragment-ion filtering (m/z 156.01138 or m/z 108.04439) and assignment of extracted-ion chromatograms of marked fragment ions were successfully utilized to screen the desired analytes and subsequently confirmed with the availability of reference standards. The optimized and validated approach for spiked 26 SAs and 9 metabolites in control goat milk demonstrated satisfactory accuracy (80.1-112.6%) and precision (RSDs < 6.4%) for matrix-matched standard addition. After applying suspect goat milk samples, untargeted SA analytes including sulfanilamide or an N4-acetylsulfamethazine metabolite with concentration ranging from 66.3 to 398.5 ng L-1 were determined in 5 of 45 goat milk samples.

Abstract
Background PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors in combination with chemotherapy are widely used in clinical practice. However, the ideal combined timing of them has not been fully explored. Methods In this study, simulation experiments to explore the impacts of the combination of anti-PD-1 antibody (anti-PD-1 Ab) on the cytotoxic effects of chemotherapeutic drugs in peripheral blood mononuclear cells were performed. In addition, the effects of the combined timing of PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors and chemotherapy on efficacy and safety were retrospectively analysed in patients with refractory lung cancer. Results Experiments in vitro showed that administering the anti-PD-1 Ab 3 days after chemotherapy (represented by dicycloplatin) resulted in significantly weaker cytotoxic effects on lymphocytes, compared with administering the anti-PD-1 Ab before or concurrent with chemotherapy. Moreover, data from 64 lung cancer patients treated with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors plus chemotherapy as a second- or higher-line therapy were retrospectively analysed. The results showed that administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors 1-10 days (especially 3-5 days) after chemotherapy was associated with longer overall survival [17.3 months versus 12.7 months; hazard ratio (HR) = 0.58, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.28-1.19, P = 0.137 in univariate analysis; HR = 0.36, 95% CI 0.16-0.80, P = 0.012 in multivariate analysis] and a trend of improved progression-free survival (5.1 months versus 4.2 months; HR = 0.81, 95% CI 0.42-1.54, P = 0.512) compared with administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors before or concurrent with chemotherapy. Conclusion Our findings suggest that administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors 1-10 days (especially 3-5 days) after chemotherapy is superior to administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors before or concurrent with chemotherapy in patients with refractory lung cancer, but this result needs to be further explored by prospective studies. The cytotoxic effects of chemotherapeutic drugs were positively correlated with the activation states of PBMCs. Administering the anti-PD-1 Ab 3 days after chemotherapy resulted in weaker cytotoxic effects on lymphocytes in vitro. Administering PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors a few days after chemotherapy resulted in better survival in lung cancer patients.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a human genetic disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. Among the ∼2000 known CF mutations, the F508del mutation is found in 84% and G542X in 4.6% of the CF patients in the United States. The F508del mutation occurs in exon 11 and is characterised by deletion of the “CTT” nucleotides, resulting in deletion on the phenylalanine residue at the position 508 of CFTR. This causes misfolding of the CFTR protein, which is further degraded by proteases. The G542X mutation is a nonsense mutation found in exon 12 and associated with nonsense-mediated decay of the mutant transcript causing the absence of protein production. Previously, we generated CFTRF508del/F508del and CFTRG542X/G542X lambs (unpublished) using CRISPR/Cas9 and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) techniques. We hypothesised that gene editing may be an effective tool to correct these mutations and permanently cure this genetic disease. Thus, in this study, we evaluated the efficiency of CRISPR/Cas9-meditated gene knock-in to correct the F508del and G542X mutations in sheep fibroblasts invitro. We designed single guide (sg)RNAs using the Benchling software (https://benchling.com/academic) and approximately 100bp of single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides (ssODNs) targeting the mutation sites at exon 11 and 12 to introduce either “CTT” or change the “T” to “G” nucleotide in genome of F508del or G542X CF sheep cells, respectively. Each of Cas9/sgRNA ribonucleoproteins was transfected into sheep fibroblast cells along with ssODNs using the Lonza-4D-NucleofectorTM (Lonza) system for homology-directed repair. The transfected cells were subsequently cultured in Dulbecco’s modified Eagle medium, supplemented with 15% fetal bovine serum and 1% penicillin, and incubated at 38.5°C. DNA was extracted 48h post-transfection to validate mutation efficiency. PCR products of the exons 11 and 12 were ligated into T-vector, and bacterial colonies were selected based on blue/white screening. In total, we isolated 32 single cell bacterial colonies for each mutant. Sequencing results indicate that “CTT” was introduced in 4/26 (15.3%) plasmid colonies, and “T to G” replaced in 13/31 (41.9%) colonies. Therefore, our results indicate that the F508del and G542X mutations can be effectively corrected in CF sheep fibroblasts invitro using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a human genetic disease caused by mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) gene. We have recently generated 3 CF sheep models: a CFTR−/− model (Fan et al. 2018 LCI Insight 3:e123529; https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.123529) and 2 additional models where we introduced human G542X and F508del mutations into the sheep genome (unpublished). Correction of CFTR mutations in zygotes with gene-editing techniques could be a permanent solution to cure this disease. To assess the efficiency of mutation correction invitro by CRISPR/Cas9, we utilised embryos generated by ovine-bovine interspecies SCNT (iSCNT) due to limited access to sheep oocytes. First, we evaluated the developmental capacity of reconstructed iSCNT embryos, in which nucleus donors were derived from ovine fibroblasts and recipient cytoplasm from enucleated bovine oocytes. These iSCNT embryos were able to develop to 16- to 32-cell stage (3/30, 10.0%), which allowed the genotyping of each embryo using PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism assays and Sanger sequencing. Then, specific single-guide RNAs (sgRNAs) and 101-bp single-stranded oligodeoxynucleotides (ssODNs) were designed and synthesised to correct the G542X mutation in the sheep CFTR gene. We optimized the concentrations of Cas9:sgRNA ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) for 1-cell stage embryonic injection. Mutation analysis of embryos was conducted at 3 days post injection. Genotyping results showed that we achieved high efficiencies (95.7–100%) of mutations (indels) at targeting loci after injection of different concentrations of Cas9:sgRNA RNPs (0.02 µg:0.6 pmol/µL to 1.4 µg:40 pmol/µL). Furthermore, when an RNP (1.4 µg:40 pmol/µL) was co-injected with a ssODN (80 pmol/µL), both targeting the G542X mutation, the mutation was successfully corrected in the genome of iSCNT embryos generated using G542X fibroblasts as nucleus donors at an efficiency of 5.7% (3/53) via homology-directed repair mechanism. During the invitro culture of iSCNT embryos, we did not observe significant difference (P>0.05, unpaired t-test) in cleavage rates between embryos with or without injection (85.5% vs. 89.0%). Off-target analysis of those mutated and G542X-corrected embryos is in progress. Our strategy overcomes the limitation of oocyte source and provides an opportunity to mimic the editing of any other gene in embryos of different species.

Abstract
Genes associated with the WNT pathway play an important role in the etiology of tooth agenesis. Low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 6 encoding gene (LRP6) is a recently defined gene that is associated with autosomal dominant inherited tooth agenesis. Here, we aimed to identify novel LRP6 mutations in patients with tooth agenesis and investigate the significance of Lrp6 during tooth development. Using whole-exome sequencing, we identified 4 novel LRP6 heterozygous mutations (c.2292G>A, c.195dup, c.1095dup, and c.1681C>T) in 4 of 77 oligodontia patients. Notably, a patient who carried a nonsense LRP6 mutation (c.2292G>A; p.W764*) presented a hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia phenotype. Preliminary functional studies, including bioinformatics analysis and TOP-/FOP-flash reporter assays, demonstrated that the activation of WNT/β-catenin signaling was compromised as a consequence of LRP6 mutations. RNAscope in situ hybridization revealed dynamic and special changes of Lrp6 expression during murine tooth development from E11.5 to E16.5. It was noteworthy that Lrp6 was specifically expressed in the epithelium at E11.5 to E13.5 but was expressed in both dental epithelium and dental papilla from E14.5 and persisted in both tissues at later stages. Our study broadens the mutation spectrum of human tooth agenesis and is the first to identify a LRP6 mutation in patients with hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia and reveal the dynamic expression pattern of Lrp6 during tooth development. Information from this study is conducive to understanding the functional significance of Lrp6 on the biological process of tooth development.
