Aiming to relieve the large amount of wind power curtailment during the heating period in the North China region, a thermal-electric decoupling (TED) approach is proposed to both bring down the constraint of forced power output of combined heat and power plants and increase the electric load level during valley load times that assist the power grid
Implementation of an automated process for Limnospira indica harvesting and culture medium recycling for space applications
Future long-term space exploration missions require the implementation of circular life support systems for the supply of water, oxygen and food from mission wastes.Therefore, separation systems dealing with multi-phasic streams need to be addressed.The BioHarvest (BHV) study focused on solid/liquid separation in space with the aim to demonstrate t
Special issue in honour of Prof. Reto J. Strasser - Efficacy of botanical pesticide for rotifer extermination during the cultivation of Nannochloropsis oculata probed by chlorophyll a fluorescence transient
Nannochloropsis is widely used in aquaculture as a feed source.However, large-scale cultivation of Nannochloropsis usually fails due to rotifer contamination.In order to identify an effective technique for reducing rotifer contamination, the effect of Brachionus plicatilis contamination on photosynthetic characteristics in Nannochloropsis oculata a
Analysis of differential splicing gene by regulation of splicing regulatory protein KHSRP in lung adenocarcinoma
Background and purpose: Alternative splicing plays a crucial role in the functions and regulation of complex proteins such as cell proliferation, growth, apoptosis and differentiation, and can cause the occurrence and development of various diseases, including cancer.Currently, the functions Exercise Equipment and molecular mechanisms of most alter
Fractalkine depresses cardiomyocyte contractility.
Our laboratory reported that male mice with cardiomyocyte-selective knockout of the prostaglandin E2 EP4 receptor sub-type (EP4 KO) exhibit reduced cardiac function.Gene array on left ventricles (LV) showed increased fractalkine, a chemokine implicated in heart failure.We therefore hypothesized that fractalkine is regulated by PGE2 and contributes
