Abstract Using the Cap Analysis of Gene Expression (CAGE) technology, the FANTOM5 consortium provided one of the most comprehensive maps of transcription start sites (TSSs) in several species. Strikingly, ~72% of them could not be assigned to a specific gene and initiate at unconventional regions, outside promoters or enhancers. Here, we probe these unassigned TSSs and show that, in all species studied, a significant fraction of CAGE peaks initiate at microsatellites, also called short tandem repeats ( ...

Abstract Twenty-five years since foundational publications on valuing ecosystem services for human well-being 1,2 , addressing the global biodiversity crisis 3 still implies confronting barriers to incorporating nature’s diverse values into decision-making. These barriers include powerful interests supported by current norms and legal rules such as property rights, which determine whose values and which values of nature are acted on. A better understanding of how and why nature is (under)valued is ...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are isolated from adipose tissue (AD-MSCs), umbilical cord (UC-MSCs), or bone marrow, have therapeutic potential including anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activities. It was recently reported that MSCs are also effective as a therapeutic treatment for neuropathic pain, although the underlying mechanisms have yet to be resolved. Therefore, in this study, we investigated the effects of human AD- and UC-MSCs on neuropathic pain and its mechanisms using rat models ...

Tardigrades are microscopic animals that are capable of tolerating extreme environments by entering a desiccated state of suspended animation known as anhydrobiosis. While antioxidative stress proteins, antiapoptotic pathways and tardigrade-specific intrinsically disordered proteins have been implicated in the anhydrobiotic machinery, conservation of these mechanisms is not universal within the phylum Tardigrada, suggesting the existence of overlooked components.Here, we show that a novel Mn-dependent ...

High-speed intensity-modulation direct-detection (IM/DD) fiber optical transmission system is of great interest to the applications of datacenter interconnects (DCI) as well as edge/access networks. However, when the fiber reach is beyond 40 km such as ER or ZR, the power fading induced by chromatic dispersion (CD) in C-band, S-band and even edge-wavelengths of O-band becomes a severe issue with the ever-increasing signal data rate. In this work, we focus on an ultra-low complexity joint optical-electrical ...

Abstract Communities in socio-ecological production landscapes and seascapes are aging and depopulating. While longstanding interdependence of humans and nature in such areas holds crucial hints for sustainable development, they continue to be undervalued by existing economic frameworks. We suspect omission of non-material nature’s contributions to people (NCPs) as a possible reason for this undervaluation and focus on the intangible aspects of human–nature relationships: people’s direct and emotional ...

Recently, natural gas (mostly methane) is frequently used as fuel, while hydrogen is a promising renewable energy source. However, each gas produced contains impurity gases. As a result, membrane separation is required. The mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is a promising membrane. The huge surface area and well-defined pore structure of zeolite templated carbon (ZTC)-based MMM allow for effective separation. However, the interfacial vacuum in MMM is difficult to avoid, contributing to poor separation performance. ...

Minor-embedding heuristics have become an indispensable tool for compiling problems in quadratically unconstrained binary optimization (QUBO) into the hardware graphs of quantum and CMOS annealing processors. While recent embedding heuristics have been developed for annealers of moderate size (about 2000 nodes), the size of the latest CMOS annealing processor (with 102,400 nodes) poses entirely new demands on the embedding heuristic. This raises the question, if recent embedding heuristics can maintain ...

Optical eigenvalue communication is a promising technique for overcoming the Kerr nonlinear limit in optical communication systems. The optical eigenvalue associated with the nonlinear Schrödinger equation remains invariant during fiber-based nonlinear dispersive transmission. However, practical applications involving use of such systems are limited by the occurrence of fiber loss and amplified noise that induce eigenvalue distortion. Thus, several time-domain neural-network-based approaches have ...

Spider silk is a protein-based material whose toughness suggests possible novel applications. A particularly fascinating example of silk toughness is provided by Darwin's bark spider ( Caerostris darwini ) found in Madagascar. This spider produces extraordinarily tough silk, with an average toughness of 350 MJ m −1 and over 50% extensibility, and can build river-bridging webs with a size of 2.8 m 2 . Recent studies have suggested that specific spidroins expressed in C. darwini are responsible for the mechanical ...

Significance Artificial synthesis of spider silk has been actively pursued. However, until now, the natural mechanical properties of spider silk have been largely unreproducible. We thoroughly investigated the genomes and transcripts of four related species of orb-weaver spiders as well as the proteins in their silk threads. Then, in addition to spidroin, we found several low-molecular-weight proteins in common. Interestingly, the low-molecular-weight protein component of spider dragline silk doubled ...

A 45-year-old man with allergic bronchopulmonary aspergillosis (ABPA) was treated with oral prednisolone (PSL) (30 mg/day), inhaled corticosteroids, and long-acting beta2-agonists. After confirmation of a PSL-dependent status (8 mg/day), subcutaneous injection with anti-interleukin (IL)-5 antibody (mepolizumab, 100 mg/month) was performed, and the PSL dose was tapered to 5 mg/day. However, ABPA recurred and proved refractory to oral itraconazole (200 mg/day). Alternative subcutaneous injection therapy ...

Graphene was modified with trimellitic anhydride groups, and its polyethylene-terephthalate-based (PET-based) nanocomposites were prepared by melt-mixing. Percolation thresholds observed from changes to the electrical conductivity and storage moduli of nanocomposite melts suggest that the dispersion levels of unmodified graphene and those of modified graphene in PET matrix were the same.

Oxytocin (OT) is a 9-amine neuropeptide that plays an essential role in mammalian labor, lactation, maternal bonding, and social affiliation. OT has been reported to exert an analgesic effect in both humans and animals, and the results of certain animal experiments have shown that the analgesic effect of OT is partially blocked by opioid receptor antagonists. To investigate the relationship between OT and μ opioid receptor (MOR), we evaluated how OT affects MOR in vitro by performing an electrical ...

One of our results is a full exploration of the dynamical behaviors of stochastic gradient learning in an elementary singular network. The bad news ...

We have proposed an instant method for painting of pressure- and temperature-sensitive paints (PSP and TSP) using a commercial inkjet printer. This method enables us to finely and separately paint PSP and TSP to prevent them from being mixed and the interaction between PSP and TSP dyes. Moreover, the pressure-sensitivity of inkjet-printed PSP was similar to those of conventional PSPs. We consider this method is promising to measure pressure distribution with temperature variation, because the printing ...

Many Japanese and European landscapes harbor biocultural diversity that has been shaped by human agency over centuries. However, these landscapes are threatened by widespread land abandonment, land-use changes, and urbanization.

A series of A-ring-modified lamellarin N analogues were designed, synthesized, and evaluated as potential noncovalent inhibitors of the EGFR T790M/L858R mutant, a causal factor in the drug-resistant non-small cell lung cancer. Several water-soluble ammonium- or guanidinium-tethered analogues exhibited good kinase inhibitory activities. The most promising analogue, 14f, displayed an excellent inhibitory profile against the T790M/L858R mutant [IC50 (WT) = 31.8 nM; IC50 (T790M/L858R) = 8.9 nM]. The effects ...
