Evidence for Fgf and Wnt regulation of Lhx2 during limb development via two limb-specific Lhx2-associated cis-regulatory modules by Jessica C. Britton, Anett Somogyi-Leatigaga, Billy A. Watson, Endika Haro, Cassidy G. Mulder, Kari D. Kennedy, Allen M. Cooper, Kristen L. Whitley, Ruth-Love Yeboah, Jeanyoung Kim, Micah C. Yu, Micah C. Yu, Jairo D. Campos, Jairo D. Campos, Japhet Amoah, Japhet Amoah, Shimako Kawauchi, Eunyoung Kim, Charmaine U. Pira, Kerby C. Oberg

“…The transcription factor LIM homeodomain 2 (Lhx2) is expressed in the distal mesoderm and coordinates AER and ZPA signals that control cellular proliferation, differentiation, and shaping of the developing limb. Yet how Lhx2 is transcriptionally regulated to support such functions has only been partially characterized.Methods/ResultsWe have identified two limb-specific cis-regulatory modules (CRMs) active within the Lhx2 expression domain in the limb. …”

Unexpected richness and distinct patterns of Morchella (Ascomycota) species diversity in Chongqing, a notable “Furnace City”: unveiling rich diversity in hot regions by Qin Qin, Yan-Fei Teng, Wen Shu Hu, Jing-Yi Wei, Zhong-Dong Yu, Ping Du, Xiao-Yan Zhang, Xia Guo, Meng-Qian Chen, Wei Wei, Xi-Hui Du

“…Furthermore, significant divergence in species diversity between the Esculenta and Elata clades of Morchella has been observed in Chongqing, which is strongly influenced and shaped by the prevailing vegetation. The distribution pattern of Morchella species suggests that the impact of high summer temperatures on species diversity in Chongqing is partially mitigated by locally diverse mountainous habitats. …”

Lean Mass Longitudinally Confounds Sedentary Time and Physical Activity With Blood Pressure Progression in 2513 Children by Andrew O. Agbaje

“…Results Among 2513 participants (61% female, mean [SD] age 11.72 [0.21] years), ST steadily increased from ~6 h/day in childhood (age 11 years) to ~9 h/day in young adulthood (age 24 years), whereas LPA and MVPA decreased, but BP had an inverted U‐shaped increase. In the longitudinal analysis, after full adjustment, a 1‐min cumulative ST from ages 11 to 24 years was positively associated with increased systolic BP (0.009 mmHg [95% CI 0.007–0.011]; p < 0.001) and diastolic BP. …”

Determinants of chronic disease patients' intention to use Internet diagnosis and treatment services: based on the UTAUT2 model by Jing Zhao, Bei Li, Jianwei Sun, Xu Zeng, Jing Zheng

“…Conversely, perceived risk negatively influences behavioral intention (β = 0.094, p = 0.008), whereas the effect of medical habits on behavioral intention is not statistically significant (p &gt; 0.05). (2) Performance expectancy partially mediates the relationships between effort expectancy, trust, electronic health literacy, and behavioral intention, while effort expectancy partially mediates the relationship between electronic health literacy and behavioral intention.ConclusionPerformance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, price value, trust, perceived risk, and electronic health literacy constitute the principal determinants shaping the behavioral intention of chronic disease patients to adopt Internet diagnosis and treatment services. …”

Galectin-8 drives ERK-dependent mitochondrial fragmentation, perinuclear relocation and mitophagy, with metabolic adaptations for cell proliferation by Adely de la Peña, Claudio Retamal, Francisca Pérez-Molina, Nicole Díaz-Valdivia, Francisco Veloso-Bahamondes, Diego Tapia, Jorge Cancino, Felix Randow, Alfonso González, Claudia Oyanadel, Andrea Soza

“…Bafilomycin A abrogates Gal-8-induced cell proliferation, suggesting that mitophagy serves as an adaptation to cell proliferation demands. Functional analysis under Gal-8 stimulation shows that mitochondria maintain an active electron transport chain, partially uncoupled from ATP synthesis, and an increased membrane potential, indicative of healthy mitochondria. …”
