于复制历程中,RNA病毒常常孕育发生出缺陷的颗粒,这些颗粒寄生并滋扰完备病毒的复制以及包装。这些出缺陷的颗粒也可能刺激宿主的免疫反映。Pitchai等人开发了一种持续造就要领,此中将缺掉克隆到艾滋病病毒(HIV)中以孕育发生医治性滋扰粒子(TIPs)。

起首,他们发明具备转导威力的病毒样颗粒是有前提地于完备的HIV以及削减的HIV载量的转运中孕育发生的。测序没有检测到随后的年夜缺掉或者重排。然后于捐赠的HIV传染的人类细胞、人源化小鼠以及传染HIV的非人灵长类植物中打针一剂量的项目化TIPS举行测试。这些试验证明了血清转化、按捺HIV复制以及TIP连续至少30周。

▲ Abstract:

During replication, RNA viruses frequently generate defective particles that parasitize and interfere with the replication and packaging of intact virus. Such defective particles may also stimulate host i妹妹une responses. Pitchai et al. developed a continuous culture method in which deletions were cloned into HIV to generate therapeutic interfering particles (TIPs). First, they showed that transduction-competent viral-like particles were produced conditionally in trans with intact HIV and reduced HIV load. Sequencing did not detect subsequent large deletions or rearrangements. Engineered TIPS were then tested with one injected dose in donated HIV-infected human cell���s, humanized mice, and nonhuman primates infected with HIV. These experiments verified seroconversion, suppression of HIV replication, and TIP persistence for at least 30 weeks.

氯胺酮抗抑郁作用的发明是生理康健医治的主要进展。然而,其潜于机制仍未彻底相识。Chen等人发明,于近似抑郁的植物中,氯胺酮选择性地按捺了侧缰核神经元的NMDA受体反映,但对于海马锥体神经元没有作用。

研究者发明,与海马神经元比拟,侧缰核神经元于抑郁状况下具备更高的内涵活性,而且突触外的NMDA受体库要小患上多。经由过程增长海马神经元的内涵活性或者降低外侧缰核神经元的活性,可以互换NMDA受体对于氯胺酮阻断反映的敏感性。去除了侧缰中强迫性NMDA受体亚基NR1可制止氯胺酮的抗抑郁作用。

▲ Abstract:

The discovery of the antidepressant effects of ketamine is an important advance in mental health therapy. However, the underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. Chen et al. found that in depressive-like animals, ketamine selectively inhibited NMDA receptor responses in lateral habenula neurons, but not in hippocampal pyramidal neurons. Compared with hippocampal neurons, lateral habenula neurons have much higher intrinsic activity in the depressive state and a much smaller extrasynaptic reservoir pool of NMDA receptors. By increasing the intrinsic activity of hippocampal neurons or decreasing the activity of lateral habenula neurons, the sensitivity of their NMDA receptor responses to ketamine blockade could be swapped. Removal of the obligatory NMDA receptor subunit NR1 in the lateral habenula prevented ketamine s antidepressant effects.

于某些环境下,拓扑固态器件中的电子运动能以近似量子光学的体式格局举行节制。这个观点的焦点是拓扑边沿状况,抱负环境下,它应该没有后向散射,也不需要外加磁场。Huang等人不雅察到,于零磁场下,双层石墨烯中的一种称为扭结态的螺旋边沿态与电阻的很是切确的量化有关。

当温度增长到50K摆布时,量子化仅体现出稍微的恶化,注解对于后向散射的掩护。研究者演示了拓扑节制开关的电气操作,其通/关比为200。这些成果证实了扭结态的鲁棒性以及可调性,和它于构建电子量子光学器件方面的远景。

▲ Abstract:

The motion of electrons in topological solid-state devices can be controlled in a manner analogous to quantum optics under certain circumstances. Central to this concept are topological edge states, which ideally should exhibit no backscattering and should not require an applied magnetic field. Huang et al. observed a very precise quantization of resistance associated with a type of helical edge states called kink states in bilayer graphene at zero magnetic field. The quantization exhibited only a slight deterioration as the temperature was increased to about 50 K, indicating protection against backscattering.

蒸汽电池中的碱原子调集是检测电磁场最通用的体系之一,并用在打造最敏捷的磁力计。然而,这类原子蒸汽电池的低密度限定了它们的敏捷度。Shin等人提出了一种液体模仿物,可以提供更高的密度数以及更高的化学可调性,从而有可能降服该技能的局限性。

作者报导了一种二茂铁负载的镱共同物,于室温下于溶液中体现出超窄的接收线宽。该研究展示了定制份子于基在液体的切确量子传感中的潜力,这将有助在将来运用。

▲ Abstract:

Alkali atom ensembles in vapor cells are among the most versatile systems for detecting electromagnetic fields and are used to manufacture the most sensitive magnetometers. However, low number densities in such atomic vapor cells limit their sensitivity. Shin et al. proposed a liquid analog that can offer higher density numbers and higher chemical tunability, thus potentially overcoming the limitations of this technology. The authors reported a ferrocene-supported ytterbium complex that exhibits an ultranarrow absorption linewidth in solution at room temperature. Their work showcases the potential of tailor-designed molecules in liquid-based precision quantum sensing, which may spark future applications.

地球的地幔很难取样,其年夜部门间接信息来自从海底挖出的岩石,或者者来自以蛇绿岩的情势被推到地壳上的古代地幔。Lissenberg等人展示了国际海洋钻探工程远征399的船上不雅测成果,该工程于海底地幔下钻了1268米深。

岩石剖面是从年夜西洋中脊四周的热液活跃区恢复的,应该有助在咱们更好地舆解地幔岩石的化学身分,这些岩石是由四周岩浆提取历程造成的,造成了新的海洋地壳。

▲ Abstract:

The mantle of the Earth is hard to sample, with most of our direct information about it coming from rocks dredged off the ocean floor or from ancient mantle thrust up onto the crust in the form of ophiolites. Lissenberg et al. present the shipboard observations from the International Ocean Drilling Project Expedition 399, which drilled 1268 meters deep into the mantle under the seafloor. The rock section was recovered from a hydrothermally active region near the mid-Atlantic ridge and should help us better understand the chemistry of mantle rocks shaped by the nearby magma extraction process that forms new ocean crust.

质料于含有空地的环境下,每每于载荷作用下过早或者灾害性地掉效,这对于质料打造提出了应战。Chen等人发明,当孔洞缩小到亚微米或者纳米标准时,含有高达10%球形孔洞的金不会于张力下过早断裂。相反,分离的纳米空地增长了质料的强度以及延展性,同时减轻了质料的重量。

除了了按捺应力或者应变集中外,这类布局提供了伟大的外貌积,促成了外貌位错的彼此作用,从而实现了强化以及分外的应变软化,从而实现了增韧。将近似裂纹的无害缺陷中的浮泛转化为有利的 身分 ,为开发新型轻质高机能质料提供了一种重价且环保的要领。

▲ Abstract:

Materials often fail prematurely or catastrophically under load while containing voids, posing a challenge to materials manufacturing. We found that a metal (gold) containing spherical voids with a fraction of up to 10% does not fracture prematurely in tension when the voids are shrunk to the submicron or nanometer scale. Instead, the dispersed nanovoids increase the strength and ductility of the material while simultaneously reducing its weight. Apart from the suppressed stress or strain concentration, such structure provides enormous surface area and promotes surface-dislocation interactions, which enable strengthening and additional strain hardening and thus toughening. Transforming voids from crack-like detrimental defects into a beneficial ingredient provides an inexpensive and environmentally friendly approach for the development of a new class of lightweight, high-performance materials.
