Biogeography and ecological functions of underestimated CPR and DPANN in acid mine drainage sediments by Sheng-Xuan Peng, Shao-Ming Gao, Zhi-Liang Lin, Zhen-Hao Luo, Si-Yu Zhang, Wen-Sheng Shu, Fangang Meng, Li-Nan Huang

“…We found that, remarkably, geographic distance represents the primary factor driving the large-scale ecological distribution of both CPR and DPANN organisms, followed by pH and Fe. Although both groups might be capable of iron reduction through a flavin-based extracellular electron transfer mechanism, significant differences are found in their metabolic capabilities (with complex carbon degradation and chitin degradation being more prevalent in CPR whereas fermentation and acetate production being enriched in DPANN), indicating potential niche differentiation. …”

Cognitive neuroscience approach to explore the impact of wind turbine noise on various mental functions by Agnieszka Rosciszewska, Maciej Buszkiewicz, Gabriela Dobrzynska-Kobylec, Anna Klichowska, Tomasz Przybyla, Blanka B. Nagy, Andrzej Wicher, Michal Klichowski

“…Furthermore, we utilized various psychological scales and found that even tendencies towards rumination or reduced capacity for reflection and ambiguity tolerance did not lead to maladaptive perceptions of wind turbine noise and, therefore, to a state that might indirectly influence mental functioning. Although these results cannot be generalized, they support the concept that the interlinkage between exposure to wind turbine noise and human cognitive functioning is not a cause-and-effect relationship. …”

Effect of lipid peroxidation on the allergenicity and functional properties of soybean β-conglycinin (7S) and glycinin (11S) by Liying Ye, Liangtao Lü, Xiao Lin, Kan He, Xiaoquan Yang, Zhili Wan, Lizhong Liu, Haiqian Wu, Shaojun Xing, Xuli Wu

“…A mouse model showed that oxidation reduced the IgE, IgG, and IgG1 levels, as well as reduced histamine and mMCP-1 release in serum, which might suppress the allergic reaction. In conclusion, the lipid peroxidation treatment likely causes changes to the functional properties of soybean, decreasing the potential allergenicity of 7S and 11S.…”

The disease-related biological functions of PIWI-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) and underlying molecular mechanisms by Tong Sun, Xiao Han
