Correlation Between Learning and Memory Impairment and Changes in Cerebral White Matter Nerve Fibers and Pericytes in Rats with Chronic Cerebral Ischemia by HUANG Jia, WANG Mengxue, NI Jinglei, LIANG Shengxiang, LIN Bingbing

“…At 28 d and 56 d after operation, morris water maze was used to detect spatial learning and memory ability; diffusion tensor imaging was used to observe the fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (MD) rate of white matter nerve fibers in corpus callosum and hippocampus; luxol fast blue (LFB) staining was used to observe demyelination in corpus callosum; Western blot was used to detect the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) and pericyte marker platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFR-β) in corpus callosum and hippocampus.Results(1) Learning and memory ability: compared with the sham operation group, the escape latency prolonged significantly from day 2 to day 4 after operation in the 28 days after operation group and on the 3rd day in the 56 days after operation group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). …”

Biogeochemical cycling of sedimentary organic carbon and benthic nutrient fluxes in the semi-enclosed Jinhae Bay, Korea: insights into benthic-pelagic coupling by Sung-Uk An, Sung-Uk An, Kyung-Tae Kim, Sung-Han Kim, Sung-Han Kim, Ju-Wook Baek, Ju-Wook Baek, Hyun-Jeong Jeong, Hyun-Jeong Jeong, Chul-In Sun, Jin Young Choi, Jin Young Choi, Sokjin Hong, Dae In Lee, Jae Seong Lee, Jae Seong Lee

“…The benthic nitrogen and phosphate fluxes accounted for 82.1 to 149% and 23.1 to 57.6%, respectively, of the required levels for primary production in the water column. Our results suggest that OC oxidation in the JB sediment may significantly contribute to the biogeochemical OC cycles and tight benthic–pelagic coupling associated with nutrient regeneration.…”
