A Mathematical Model of the Dynamics of Cytokine Expression and Human Immune Cell Activation in Response to the Pathogen Staphylococcus aureus

Cell-based mathematical models have previously been developed to simulate the immune system in response to pathogens. Mathematical modeling papers which study the human immune response to pathogens have predicted concentrations of a variety of cells, including activated and resting macrophages, plasma cells, and antibodies. This study aims to create a comprehensive mathematical model that can predict cytokine levels in response to a gram-positive bacterium, S. aureus by coupling previous models. To accomplish this, the cytokines Tumor Necrosis Factor Alpha (TNF-α), Interleukin 6 (IL-6), Interleukin 8 (IL-8), and Interleukin 10 (IL-10) are included to quantify the relationship between cytokine release from macrophages and the concentration of the pathogen, S. aureus, ex vivo. Partial differential equations (PDEs) are used to model cellular response and ordinary differential equations (ODEs) are used to model cytokine response, and interactions between both components produce a more robust and more complete systems-level understanding of immune activation. In the coupled cellular and cytokine model outlined in this paper, a low concentration of S. aureus is used to stimulate the measured cellular response and cytokine expression. Results show that our cellular activation and cytokine expression model characterizing septic conditions can predict ex vivo mechanisms in response to gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria. Our simulations provide new insights into how the human immune system responds to infections from different pathogens. Novel applications of these insights help in the development of more powerful tools and protocols in infection biology.

Temporal mismatches in flight activity patterns between Pipistrellus kuhlii and Prays oleae in olive farms: Implications for biocontrol services potential

Abstract Biocontrol services are widely recognized to provide key incentives for bat conservation. However, we have virtually no information on whether and how disruptions in bat‐mediated biocontrol services are driven by mismatches between the temporal activity patterns of insectivorous bats and insect pests. We investigated the temporal relationship between the nightly activity patterns of the common pipistrelle bat ( Pipistrellus kuhlii ) and the olive fruit moth ( Prays oleae ). Temporal mismatches between species pairs were estimated as the time difference (expressed as a percentage of the night) at which P. kuhlii and P. oleae reached 50% of their abundance. The study was carried out during spring, summer, and fall between 2017 and 2019 in 60 olive farms representing increasing levels of structural simplification (as a surrogate of agricultural intensification). Olive farms were classified as exhibiting high (i.e. HIGH olive farms; n = 27), intermediate (MID; n = 18), and low (LOW; n = 15) structural complexity. Temporal mismatches between the activity levels of P. kuhlii and P. oleae varied between seasons and types of olive farms, being comparatively lower in summer than in spring and fall. Furthermore, summer was the only season in which temporal mismatches between species pairs differed between types of olive farms, with higher temporal mismatches found in LOW than in HIGH and MID olive farms. Overall, our work demonstrates the existence of temporal mismatches between the nightly activity patterns of P. kuhlii and P. oleae . Furthermore, it demonstrates that the structural simplification of olive farms increases temporal mismatches between species pairs, particularly in summer when bat‐mediated biocontrol services are most needed. Synthesis and applications . Future research should consider mismatches between the temporal activity patterns of insectivorous bats and insect pests. Otherwise, the actual impact of agricultural intensification on bat‐mediated biocontrol services as well as the economic impact of their loss on the agriculture industry might be underestimated. To enhance biocontrol services, we propose increasing the availability of suitable roosting and foraging sites as well as conserving areas of remnant native woodland and scattered hollow‐bearing trees.

Astragaloside IV improved antioxidative stress capacity and related gene expression of the Keap1‐Nrf2 pathway in grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) hepatocytes under heat stress

Abstract This study aims to investigate the protective effects of astragaloside IV (AS‐IV) on the hepatocytes of grass carp ( Ctenopharyngodon idella ) on heat stress. Cultured cells were treated with AS‐IV (0, 50, 100 and 200 μg/ml) at 28°C for 24 h and then exposed to heat stress by increasing the culturing temperature (32 ± 0.5°C) for 6 h. The increased temperatures significantly reduced cell viability and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, and increased malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in the 0 μg/ml AS‐IV treatment group at 32°C, but the grass carp hepatocytes treated with 100 and 200 μg/ml AS‐IV had significantly increased cell viability and SOD activity and decreased MDA levels. The mRNA levels of keap1a , keap1b , nrf2 , gsh‐px , cat , cu‐zn sod , mgst1 and il‐6 were significantly lower in the 0 μg/ml AS‐IV treatment group at 32°C, while those of keap1a , nrf2 , gsh‐px , cat , cu‐zn sod , gstp1 , ho‐1 and il‐6 were significantly higher in cells treated with 100 or 200 μg/ml AS‐IV. Our findings indicate that AS‐IV could enhance the antioxidative stress capacity of grass carp hepatocytes under heat stress, and its mechanism may be associated with the activation of the Keap1‐Nrf2 pathway. Thus, these results provide new insights into how to alleviate heat stress in grass carp.

Proposal and application of ROM-Lasso method for sensitivity coefficient evaluation

We propose a novel method for evaluating sensitivity coefficients of neutronics parameters to cross sections, so-called the reduced-order modeling technique ROM-Lasso. In this method, cross sections of interest are randomly sampled, and corresponding perturbed core analyses are performed. Then, the sensitivity coefficient vector of the higher-level model is expanded via the active subspace bases obtained with the lower-level model whose dimensional complexity is smaller than that of the higher-level model, and the expansion coefficients are estimated by the Lasso regression. A unique feature of the ROM-Lasso method allows the use of different bases optimized for each neutronics parameter. We conducted a verification calculation for an accelerator-driven system and demonstrated that the ROM-Lasso method can reproduce the sensitivity coefficients with a much smaller number of forward calculations than the direct method. The proposed method can be used to practically evaluate sensitivity coefficients. (authors)

Bacterial Volatile Organic Compounds as a Strategy to Increase Drought Tolerance in Maize (Zea mays L.): Influence on Plant Biochemistry

Maize is highly susceptible to drought, which affects growth and yield. This study investigated how bacterial volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) affect maize drought tolerance. Drought reduced shoot size but increased root length, an adaptation for accessing deeper soil moisture. BVOCs from strain D12 significantly increased root length and shoot growth under drought conditions. Drought also altered root biochemistry, decreasing enzyme activity, and increased osmolyte levels. BVOCs from strains F11 and FS4-14 further increased osmolyte levels but did not protect membranes from oxidative damage, while BVOCs from strains D12 and D7 strains reduced osmolyte levels and cell damage. In shoots, drought increased the levels of osmolytes and oxidative stress markers. BVOCs from FS4-14 had minimal effects on shoot biochemistry. BVOCs from D12 and F11 partially restored metabolic activity but did not reduce cell damage. BVOCs from D7 reduced metabolic activity and cell damage. These results suggest that BVOCs can modulate the biochemical response of maize to drought, with some strains evidencing the potential to enhance drought tolerance.

Thermal Regulation of CO 2 Activation Pathways via Interfacial Water Restructuring Enables Ampere-Level, Near-Unity CO Electrosynthesis

Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to CO is a key step in carbon utilization technologies, yet maintaining high CO selectivity under elevated temperatures relevant to industrial membrane-electrode-assembly (MEA) electrolyzers remains challenging due to the competing hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Additionally, the temperature dependence of CO selectivity on Cu-based catalysts has remained largely unexplored. Here, we demonstrate that incorporating atomic In or Sn into Cu fundamentally reshapes the selectivity of Cu catalysts at elevated temperatures. Dilute alloy catalysts, In 1 Cu and Sn 1 Cu, achieve >95% FE of CO over a broad current-density window (0.1−1.1 A cm −2 ) at 60 °C in MEA electrolyzers, far exceeding their performance at ambient temperature. In situ attenuated total reflection surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy suggests that elevating temperature depletes interfacial water activity, which favors a shift in CO 2 activation from a proton-coupled *COOH pathway toward an electron-driven *COO − -associated pathway, while also suppressing HER and CO hydrogenation. In contrast, benchmark CO-selective catalysts such as Ag exhibit minimal temperature-induced changes in CO production at 20−60 °C. These findings identify temperature as an unavoidable yet previously underutilized operating parameter in MEA electrolyzers for high-rate, selective CO production on Cubased catalysts.

Acute Ozone-Induced Transcriptional Changes in Markers of Oxidative Stress and Glucocorticoid Signaling in the Rat Hippocampus and Hypothalamus Are Sex-Specific

Exposure to a prototypic air pollutant ozone (O 3 ) has been associated with the activation of neuroendocrine stress response along with neural changes in oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, and Alzheimer’s disease-like pathologies in susceptible animal models. We hypothesized that neural oxidative and transcriptional changes induced by O 3 in stress responsive regions are sex-dependent. Male and female adult Long–Evans rats were exposed to filtered air or O 3 for two consecutive days (0.8 ppm, 4 h/day) and brain regions were flash-frozen. Activities of cerebellar OS parameters and mitochondrial complex I, II, and IV enzymes were assessed to confirm prior findings. We assessed transcriptional changes in hypothalamus (HYP) and hippocampus (HIP) for markers of OS, microglial activity and glucocorticoid signaling using qPCR. Although there were no O 3 or sex-related differences in the cerebellar activities of OS and mitochondrial enzymes, the levels of protein carbonyls and complex II activities were higher in females regardless of O 3 . There were no statistical differences in baseline expression of genes related to OS (Cat, Dhcr24, Foxm1, Gpx1, Gss, Nfe2l2, Sod1) except for lower HYP Sod1 expression in air-exposed females than males, and higher HIP Gss expression in O 3 -exposed females relative to matched males. Microglial marker Aif1 expression was higher in O 3 -exposed females relative to males; O 3 inhibited Itgam only in males. The expression of Bdnf in HIP and HYP was inhibited by O 3 in both sexes. Genes related to glucocorticoid signaling (Fkbp4, Fkbp5, Hsp90aa1, Hspa4, nr3c1, nr3c2) showed sex-specific effects due to O 3 exposure. Baseline expression of HIP Fkbp4 was higher in females relative to males. O 3 inhibited Nr3c1 in female HIP and male HYP, but Nr3c2 was inhibited in male HYP. Fkbp4 expression was higher in O 3 -exposed females when compared to matched males, whereas Fkbp5 was expressed at higher levels in both brain regions of males and females. These results indicate that sex-specific brain region responses to O 3 might, in part, be caused by OS and regulation of glucocorticoid signaling.

Expression of a Bacterial Trehalose 6-Phosphate Synthase Gene otsA in Camelina sativa Seeds Promotes the Channelling of Carbon Towards Oil Accumulation

Improving seed oil yield is essential for developing Camelina sativa as a sustainable biofuel crop. Fatty acid synthesis depends on the production of acetyl-CoA from photosynthetically derived sugars. Trehalose 6-phosphate (T6P), a proxy for sucrose availability, can link sugar status to plant growth and development. Synthesised by trehalose 6-phosphate synthase (TPS) from UDP-glucose and glucose-6-phosphate, T6P plays a regulatory role in metabolism. Our previous studies on Arabidopsis transgenic lines constitutively expressing the E. coli otsA (encoding TPS) showed increased T6P levels and seed triacylglycerol, along with stunted growth. In the present study we express otsA in camelina under the control of a seed-specific Phaseolin promoter. Seeds of the resulting transgenic lines accumulated high levels of T6P, and a 15%–20% increase in total fatty acids and triacylglycerol compared to wild-type. Molecular analysis showed the transgenic seeds had reduced SnRK1 activity, elevated WRI1 protein levels, and increased the levels of WRI1 and its target genes, along with enhanced rates of fatty acid synthesis that increased seed weights relative to wild type. Notably, the increase in oil did not affect seed protein levels but did reduce the soluble metabolite fraction. Crucially, seed-specific expression of otsA mitigated the growth defects associated with constitutive otsA expression, and the transgenic lines showed normal seed development and germination. These findings demonstrate that targeted T6P modulation via seed-specific otsA expression is an effective metabolic engineering strategy to boost oil production in camelina and potentially in other oilseed crops and bioenergy crops such as energycane, sorghum and miscanthus.

Rapid activation of non-oriented mechanophores via shock loading and spallation

Mechanophores (MPs), stimuli-responsive molecules that respond chromatically to mechanochemical reactions, are important for understanding the coupling between mechanics and chemistry as well as in engineering applications. However, the atomic-level understanding of their activation originates from gas phase studies or under simple linear elongation forces directly on molecules or polymer chains containing MPs. The effect of many-body distortions, pervasive in condensed-phase applications, is not understood. Therefore, we performed large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of a poly(methyl methacrylate)-spiropyran copolymer under dynamic mechanical loading and studied the activation of the MP under various conditions from dynamical compression to tension during unloading. Detailed analysis of the all-atom MD trajectories shows that the MP blocks experience significant many-body intramolecular distortion that can significantly decrease the activation barrier as compared with when deformation rates are slow relative to molecular relaxation time scales. Here we find that the reactivity of MPs under material compression states is governed by many-body effects of intramolecular torsions, whereas under tension, the reactions are governed by tensile stresses.

Enhancing durability and activity toward oxygen evolution reaction using single-site Re-doped NiFeO x catalysts at ampere-level

NiFeO x materials are known as among the most active catalysts toward oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for hydrogen generation in alkaline media. Nevertheless, the long-term durability of NiFeO x catalysts for OER is still too far to the industrial application. Herein, we prepared a NiFeReO x catalyst with single-site Re dopants and observed that the single-site Re dopants could significantly enhance the durability without compromising the activity. A cell voltage of 1.82 V without iR correction is noted at the current density of 3000 mA cm –2 in anion-exchange membrane water electrolyzer (AEMWE) with NiFeReO x catalyst, and a very small degradation is observed under 2000 and 1000 mA cm –2 , which remarkably outperforms the pristine NiFeO x . Additionally, the overpotential of 305 mV at 10 mA cm –2 is achieved with the NiFeReO x catalyst, which is lower than 50 mV compared with the pristine NiFeO x catalyst, together with a smaller Tafel slope of 54.3 mV dec -1 . The boosted OER durability and activity of the NiFeReO x catalyst could be attributed to the strong electron-withdrawing property of Re 7+ single atoms leading to the electronic structure optimization and stabilization of Ni/Fe active sites. Our insights propose a new path for designing NiFeO x catalysts with high durability and activity toward OER.

Bioinformatics-aided identification, characterization and applications of mushroom linalool synthases

Enzymes empower chemical industries and are the keystone for metabolic engineering. For example, linalool synthases are indispensable for the biosynthesis of linalool, an important fragrance used in 60–80% cosmetic and personal care products. However, plant linalool synthases have low activities while expressed in microbes. Aided by bioinformatics analysis, four linalool/nerolidol synthases (LNSs) from various Agaricomycetes were accurately predicted and validated experimentally. Furthermore, we discovered a linalool synthase (Ap.LS) with exceptionally high levels of selectivity and activity from Agrocybe pediades, ideal for linalool bioproduction. It effectively converted glucose into enantiopure (R)-linalool in Escherichia coli, 44-fold and 287-fold more efficient than its bacterial and plant counterparts, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the divergent evolution paths for plant, bacterial and fungal linalool synthases. More critically, structural comparison provided catalytic insights into Ap.LS superior specificity and activity, and mutational experiments validated the key residues responsible for the specificity.

Arsenic activation and compensation in single crystal CdTe bilayers

In state-of-the art polycrystalline CdTe photovoltaics, group-V dopant activation is about 2%. Low activation can create electronic defects and lead to recombination and band tail losses. To develop methods to overcome this limitation, dopant activation was systematically investigated using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) grown single crystal bilayers of As-doped CdTe on undoped CdTe. Results suggest multiple paths for improved As-activation in polycrystalline CdTe-based devices. It was found that the carrier concentration in this MBE material saturated at ∼3 × 1016 cm−3, with high levels (>50%) of As-activation possible. High activation could be achieved with a post-growth activation temperature of ∼450 °C, when the initial doping level was below the saturation level. However, at typical polycrystalline As incorporation levels (>5 × 1016 cm−3), the excess As is inactive or compensating, requiring elevated temperatures (500–600 °C) to achieve high activation. Oxygen in the annealing ambient was detrimental, while the effect of CdCl2 in the ambient is more case-dependent. A 575 °C activation anneal was combined with a 450 °C CdCl2 treatment to better understand the implications for polycrystalline CdTe. Interestingly, on highly doped samples, processes ending with a high temperature step displayed high activation, while those ending at 450 °C significantly reduced the carrier concentration (with or without CdCl2 in the ambient). Low activation can be restored with another high temperature anneal, allowing reproducible toggling between high and low activation based on the final temperature. Photoluminescence revealed the presence of donor–acceptor pairs in the low activation state that appear to be associated with a compensating defect.

Theoretical Perspective on Operando Spectroscopy of Fluxional Nanocatalysts

Improvements in operando spectroscopy have enabled the catalysis community to investigate the dynamic nature of catalysts under operating conditions with increasing detail. Still, the highly dynamic nature of some catalysts, such as fluxional supported subnano clusters, presents a formidable challenge even for the most state-of-the-art techniques. Here, the reason is that such fluxional catalytic interfaces contain a variety of thermally accessible states. Operando spectroscopies used in catalysis generally fall into two categories: ensemble-based techniques, which provide spectra containing the signals of the entire ensemble of states of the catalyst and are not necessarily dominated by the most active species, and localized techniques, which provide atomistic-level information about the dynamics of active sites in a very small area, which might not include the most active species. Combining many different kinds of techniques can provide detailed insight; however, we propose that effective utilization of specific computational techniques and approaches within the fluxionality paradigm can fill the gap and enable atomistic characterization of the most relevant catalytic sites.

NREL’s Wind Turbine Drivetrain Condition Monitoring and Wind Plant Operation and Maintenance Research During the 2010s: A US Land-Based Perspective

The wind industry has seen tremendous growth during the past two decades, with the global cumulative installation capacity reaching more than 650 gigawatts by the end of 2019. Despite performance and reliability improvements of utility-scale wind turbines over the years, the industry still experiences premature component failures, leading to increased operation and maintenance (O&M) costs. Among various turbine components, gearboxes—and, more broadly, drivetrains—have shown to be costly to maintain throughout the design life of a wind turbine. The problem of premature component failure is industry wide. As early as 2007, the US Department of Energy (DOE) started to address this challenge through the National Renewable Energy Laboratory’s (NREL’s) reliability initiative that first focused on gearboxes and more recently expanded to entire drivetrains. The wind turbine drivetrain condition monitoring and wind plant O&M research that is the subject of this paper is part of the NREL initiative and includes a few research and development (R&D) activities conducted during the 2010s. These activities included technology evaluation during the first few years; novel monitoring technique investigation (specifically, compact filter analysis) during the middle years; and data and physics domain modeling for fault detection and prediction in recent years. A high-level summary of these activities is provided in this paper along with some key observations from each activity. Most of the work discussed has been published and can be referred to for more information. They reflect the expected evolution of wind turbine condition monitoring and O&M in the US market—primarily, a land-based perspective. In addition, we have identified several R&D opportunities that can be picked up by the research community to help industry advance in related areas, making wind power more cost competitive in the future.
