As a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease,type 1 diabetes mellitus(T1DM)is marked by insulin defect resulting from the destruction of pancreaticβ-cells.The understanding of various aspects of T1DM,such as its epidemiology,pathobiology,pathogenesis,clinical manifestations,and complications,has been greatly promoted by valuable research performed during the past decades.However,these findings have not been translated into an effective treatment.The ideal treatment should safely repair the destroyed immune balance in a longlasting manner,preventing or stopping the destruction ofβ-cells.As a type of immune hypo-responsiveness to the orally administrated antigen,oral tolerance may be induced by enhancement of regulatory T cells(Tregs)or by anergy/deletion of T cells,depending on the dosage of orally administrated antigen.Acting as an antigen-specific immunotherapy,oral tolerance therapy for T1DM has been mainly performed using animal models and some clinical trials have been completed or are still ongoing.Based on the review of the proposed mechanism of the development of T1DM and oral tolerance,we give a current overview of oral tolerance therapy for T1DM conducted in both animal models and clinical trials.

Background:Foot kinematics,such as excessive eversion and malalignment of the hindfoot,are believed to be associated with running-related injuries.The maj ority of studies to date show that different foot strike patterns influence these specific foot and ankle kinematics.However,technical deficiencies in traditional motion capture approaches limit knowledge of in vivo joint kinematics with respect to rearfoot and forefoot strike patterns(RFS and FFS,respectively).This study uses a high-speed dual fluoroscopic imaging system(DFIS)to determine the effects of different foot strike patterns on 3D in vivo tibiotalar and subtalar joints kinematics.Methods:Fifteen healthy male recreational runners underwent foot computed tomography scanning for the construction of 3-dimensional models.A high-speed DFIS(100 Hz)was used to collect 6 degrees of freedom kinematics for participants’tibiotalar and subtalar joints when they adopted RFS and FFS in barefoot condition.Results:Compared with RFS,FFS exhibited greater internal rotation at 0%-20%of the stance phase in the tibiotalar joint.The peak internal rotation angle of the tibiotalar joint under FFS was greater than under RFS(p<0.001,Cohen’s d=0.92).RFS showed more dorsiflexion at 0%-20%of the stance phase in the tibiotalar joint than FFS.RFS also presented a larger anterior translation(p<0.001,Cohen’s d=1.28)in the subtalar joint at i nitial contact than FFS.Conclusion:Running with acute barefoot FFS increases the internal rotation of the tibiotalar joint in the early stance.The use of high-speed DFIS to quantify the movement of the tibiotalar and subtalar joint was critical to revealing the effects of RF S and FFS during running.

In recent years, high-frequency resonance (HFR) events occurred in several modular multilevel converter based high-voltage direct current (MMC-HVDC) projects. The time delay of an MMC-HVDC system is the critical factor that induces HFR. The frequency coupling affects the impedance characteristics of an MMC and further deteriorates system stability. Therefore, in this paper, a multi-input multi-output admittance model of an MMC-HVDC system is developed to analyze its frequency characteristics. The effects of current loop, power loop, phase-locked loop, and operating point on the MMC frequency coupling degree are analyzed in detail. Meanwhile, to further suppress HFR in the MMC-HVDC system, an enhanced impedance reshaping control strategy based on the equivalent single-input single-output impedance model is proposed. Finally, the accuracy of the enhanced impedance model and the effectiveness of the impedance reshaping control are verified by electromagnetic transient simulations in PSCAD.

Gout,a prevalent and painful metabolic disease often associated with obesity and aging,is caused by the deposition of urate crystals in joints,bones,or soft tissues1.Urate is an intermediate metabolite within the purine degradation pathway,predominantly derived from uric acid under physiological pH levels.Hyperuricemia occurs due to excessive uric acid production or insufficient excretion2,which is associated with various chronic diseases,including type 2 diabetes.

Given factors such as reduced land availability for onshore wind farms,wind resource enrichment levels,and costs,there is a growing trend of establishing wind farms in deserts,the Gobi,and other arid regions.Therefore,the relationship between sanddust weather environments and wind turbine operations has garnered significant attention.To investigate the impact of wind turbine wakes on sand-dust transportation,this study employs large eddy simulation to model flow fields,coupled with an actuator line model for simulating rotating blades and a multiphase particle in cell model for simulating sand particles.The research focuses on a horizontal axis wind turbine model and examines the motion and spatiotemporal distribution characteristics of four typical sizes of sand particles in the turbine wake.The findings reveal that sand particles of varying sizes exhibit a spiral settling pattern after traversing the rotating plane of wind turbine blades,influenced by blade shedding vortex and gravity.Sand particles tend to cluster in the peripheries of the vortex cores of low vorticity in the wind turbine wake.The rotation of wind turbines generates a wake vortex structure that causes a significant clustering of sand particles at the tip vortex.As the wake distance increases,the particles that cluster at the turbine's tip gradually spread outward to approximately twice the rotor diameter and then begin to mix with the incoming flow environment.Wind turbines have a noticeable impact on sand-dust transportation,hindering their movement to a significant extent.The average sand-blocking rate exhibits a trend of initially increasing and then decreasing as the wake distance increases.At its peak,the sand-blocking rate reaches an impressive 67.55%.The presence of wind turbines induces the advanced settling of sand particles,resulting in a“triangular”distribution of the deposition within the ground projection area of the wake.

The“2+26”cities,suffering the most severe winter haze pollution,have been the key region for air quality improvement in China.Increasing prominent nitrate pollution is one of the most challenging environmental issues in this region,necessitating development of an effective control strategy.Herein,we use observations,and state-of-the-art model simulations with scenario analysis and process analysis to quantify the effectiveness of the future SO_(2)-NO_(X)-VOC-NH_(3) emission control on nitrate pollution mitigation in“2+26”cities.Focusing on a serious winter haze episode,we find that limited NO_(X)emission reduction alone in the short-term period is a less effective choice than VOC or NH_3emission reduction alone to decrease nitrate concentrations,due to the accelerated NO_(X)-HNO_(3)conversion by atmospheric oxidants and the enhanced HNO_(3)to NO_(3)^(-)partition by ammonia,although deep NO_(X)emission reduction is essential in the long-term period.The synergistic NH_(3) and VOC emission control is strongly recommended,which can counteract the adverse effects of nonlinear photochemistry and aerosol chemical feedback to decrease nitrate more.Such extra benefits will be reduced if the synergistic NH_(3) and VOC reduction is delayed,and thus reducing emission of multiple precursors is urgently required for the effective control of increasingly severe winter nitrate pollution in“2+26”cities.

Box C/D RNAs guide the site-specific formation of 2′-O-methylated nucleotides(Nm)of RNAs in eukaryotes and archaea.Although C/D RNAs have been profiled in several archaea,their targets have not been experimentally determined.Here,we mapped Nm in r RNAs,t RNAs,and abundant small RNAs(s RNAs)and profiled C/D RNAs in the crenarchaeon Sulfolobus islandicus.The targets of C/D RNAs were assigned by analysis of base-pairing interactions,in vitro modification assays,and gene deletion experiments,revealing a complicated landscape of C/D RNA-target interactions.C/D RNAs widely use dual antisense elements to target adjacent sites in r RNAs,enhancing modification at weakly bound sites.Two consecutive sites can be guided with the same antisense element upstream of box D or D′,a phenomenon known as doublespecificity that is exclusive to internal box D′in eukaryotic C/D RNAs.Several C/D RNAs guide modification at a single non-canonical site.This study reveals the global landscape of RNA-guided 2′-O-methylation in an archaeon and unexpected targeting rules employed by C/D RNA.

Background: Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a fatal cardiovascular disease, the pathogenesis of which has not yet been clarified. This study aimed to identify and validate the diagnostic markers of TAA to provide a strong theoretical basis for developing new methods to prevent and treat this disease.Methods: Gene expression profiles of the GSE9106, GSE26155, and GSE155468 datasets were acquired from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified using the "limma" package in R. Least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), support vector machine-recursive feature elimination (SVM-RFE), random forest, and binary logistic regression analyses were used to screen the diagnostic marker genes. Single-sample gene set enrichment analysis (ssGSEA) was used to estimate immune cell infiltration in TAA.Results: A total of 16 DEGs were identified. The enrichment and functional correlation analyses showed that DEGs were mainly associated with inflammatory response pathways and collagen-related diseases. Collagen type I alpha 1 chain (COL1A1) and synaptotagmin like 2 (SYTL2) were identified as diagnostic marker genes with a high diagnostic value for TAA. The expression ofCOL1A1 andSYTL2 was considerably higher in TAA vascular wall tissues than in the corresponding normal tissues, and there were significant differences in the infiltration of immune cells between TAA and normal vascular wall tissues. Additionally,COL1A1 andSYTL2 expression were associated with the infiltration of immune cells in the vascular wall tissue. Single-cell analysis showed thatCOL1A1 in TAA was mainly derived from fibroblasts andSYTL2 mainly from cluster of differentiation (CD)8+ T cells. In addition, single-cell analysis indicated that fibroblasts and CD8+ T cells in TAA were significantly higher than those in normal arterial wall tissue.Conclusions: COL1A1 andSYTL2 may serve as diagnostic marker genes for TAA. The upregulation ofSYTL2 andCOL1A1 may be involved in the inflammatory infiltrati
