Multiwavelength Constraints on the Local Black Hole Occupation Fraction by Colin J. Burke, Priyamvada Natarajan, Vivienne F. Baldassare, Marla Geha

“…We also constrain the extremely low-luminosity end ( L _bol ≲ 10 ^40 erg s ^−1 ) of the active galactic nucleus (AGN) luminosity functions at z = 0. Our AGN luminosity functions are broadly consistent with an extrapolation of the shallow slope of the AGN luminosity functions from previous work.…”

Overexpression of ST8Sia1 inhibits tumor progression by TGF-β1 signaling in rectal adenocarcinoma and promotes the tumoricidal effects of CD8+ T cells by granzyme B and perforin by Chang Zhang, Yeli Wang, Yao Yu, Yanchao Pang, Xiao Xiao, Leilei Hao

“…Background Rectal adenocarcinoma (READ) involves the dysregulated expression of alpha 2,8-Sialyltransferase1 (ST8Sia1) although its role during READ’s progression is unclear.Methods The mRNA level of ST8Sia1 was analyzed based on The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO), and Tumor Immune Estimation Resource (TIMER) 2.0. Furthermore, the prognostic and significance of ST8Sia1 in READ was assessed through Kaplan-Meier curve, univariate, multivariate Cox regression, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) methods. …”

The Roles of Transcrustal Magma- and Fluid-Conducting Faults in the Formation of Mineral Deposits by Farida Issatayeva, Auez Abetov, Gulzada Umirova, Aigerim Abdullina, Zhanibek Mustafin, Oleksii Karpenko

“…At hydrocarbon fields, they play extremely important roles in conductive and convective heat, as well as in mass transfer to the area of hydrocarbon generation, determining the relationship between the processes of lithogenesis and tectogenesis, and activating the generation of hydrocarbons from oil and gas source rock. Detection of TCMFCFs was carried out using MMSS (the method of microseismic sounding) and MTSM (the magnetotelluric sounding method), in combination with other geological and geophysical data. …”

Stage-specific metabolic allocation: nutrient investment strategies during Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead development by Tingting Zhou, Ningbo Huangfu, Li Wang, Junyu Luo, Jinjie Cui, Xiangzhen Zhu, Sumei Wan, Xueke Gao

“…Nutrients, particularly lipids and energy-related metabolites, play a critical role in shaping stage-specific growth and survival strategies in parasitic wasps.MethodsTo analyze the allocation patterns of metabolite resources during development of parasitoid wasps, the multi-omics analysis was employed to systematically investigate nutrient dynamics across three growth periods in Lysiphlebia japonica Ashmead, a major parasitoid of cotton aphid (Aphis gossypii Glover).ResultsHere, a total of 753 metabolites were detected by untargeted metabolomics, with numerous nutritionally critical compounds including amino acids, fatty acids and carbohydrates showed stage-specific variations. …”

Genomic signal selection analysis reveals genes related to the lambing trait of Hotan sheep by XinKun Wang, Wei Li, QiaoYan Huang, HuiPing Sun, LeXiao Zhu, RuoHuai Gu, Feng Xing

“…We identified 290 selected regions and 332 genes across the Hotan sheep genome by using two widely adopted selective scanning detection methods (FST statistics and Piratio). Functional annotation and enrichment analysis of these genes identified 13 genes associated with the lambing rate, which were enriched in pathways such as the transforming growth factor-β signaling pathway (BMPR2, ID2, SMAD7, THBS1, and RBX1), renal cell carcinoma (PAK1, ELOC), inositol phosphate metabolism (PLCZ), non-homologous terminal junction (RAD50), ABC transporters (ABCC4), and the NET pathway (H2B, H4, and H2A). …”
