How do hedgerows influence soil organic carbon stock in livestock‐grazed pasture?

Hedgerows have the potential to influence ecosystem function in livestock‐grazed pasture. Despite this, they are often ignored when quantifying farmland ecosystem service delivery. In this study, we assess the contribution of hedgerows to the ecosystem function of carbon (C) storage, with a particular emphasis on soil organic carbon (SOC). We measured SOC stock (kg C m^?2), on an equivalent soil mass basis, at 0–0.15 m depth in pasture adjacent to 38 hedgerows (biotic) and 16 stone walls or fences (abiotic controls) across ten farms in the county of Conwy, Wales, UK. Pasture SOC stock (~7 kg C m^?2) was similar adjacent to biotic and abiotic field boundaries, positively associated with soil moisture and negatively with soil bulk density (BD). For biotic boundaries, two further variables were significantly associated with SOC stock, distance from hedgerow (decrease in SOC stock) and slope orientation (upslope SOC stock greater than downslope). For pasture adjacent to hedgerows, a model combining the aforementioned variables (BD, soil moisture, distance from hedgerow, slope orientation) explained 78% of variation in SOC stock. This study demonstrates that whilst hedgerows do have subtle positive effects on SOC stock in adjacent pasture, SOC storage adjacent to field boundaries is influenced more by soil moisture content and BD than field boundary type.     

山地五月茶提取物对乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231增殖的抑制活性研究

为深入了解海南岛热带野生植物的保健功能及其活性成分,用CCK-8法检测山地五月茶（Antidesma montanum）果和叶的乙醇提取物对MDA-MB-231乳腺癌细胞增殖的抑制活性。结果表明,山地五月茶果和叶的乙醇提取物作用72 h对细胞的半数抑制浓度（IC₅₀）分别为483 μg/mL和306 μg/mL。叶的乙醇提取物分别经石油醚、乙酸乙酯、正丁醇萃取,比较各有机溶剂萃取相及剩余水相对乳腺癌细胞抑制增殖活性,结果显示乙酸乙酯相表现出较高的活性,其处理细胞72 h的IC₅₀为150.5 μg/mL。划痕实验和Transwell检测结果表明,乙酸乙酯相提取物具有抑制MDA-MB-231细胞迁移和侵袭的能力。流式细胞仪检测结果表明,乙酸乙酯相提取物能够使MDA-MB-231细胞周期S期显著延长。UPLC-MS/MS分析结果显示,乙酸乙酯相含有穗花杉双黄酮活性成分。穗花杉双黄酮处理MDA-MB-231细胞72 h的抑制增殖IC₅₀为192.6 μg/mL,表明其是山地五月茶抑癌活性成分之一。     

造林密度对三倍体白杨杂种无性系胸径和树皮厚度的影响

三倍体杨树具有突出的营养生长优势，研究造林密度对三倍体毛白杨杂种无性系径向生长的影响规律，可为三倍体毛白杨工业用材林营建和经营管理提供理论指导。以定植于河北威县的11年生三倍体白杨杂种无性系（B301、B331和S86）以及二倍体毛白杨对照无性系1316密度试验林为研究对象，研究造林密度（2 490、1 665、1 110、825、615、495株/hm²和405株/hm²）对三倍体白杨杂种无性系胸径和树皮厚度的影响。结果表明，造林密度和无性系以及造林密度与无性系间的交互效应均对三倍体白杨杂种无性系的胸径生长具有极显著的影响，以495株/hm²造林密度条件下三倍体白杨杂种无性系S86的胸径生长量最大，平均胸径达25.1 cm；三倍体白杨杂种无性系B301、S86的胸径生长量显著大于无性系B331和二倍体对照毛白杨无性系1316；无性系对11年生三倍体白杨杂种无性系的树皮厚度具有极显著的影响，造林密度对11年生三倍体白杨杂种无性系的树皮厚度具有显著的影响。三倍体白杨杂种无性系B301、B331、S86以及二倍体对照毛白杨无性系1316内部个体间胸径与树皮厚度均呈现正相关，说明树皮厚度随着胸径生长量的增大而增厚。研究结果对于认识造林密度对杨树径向生长的影响和指导三倍体白杨良种无性系的推广具有重要意义。     

Tumour necrosis factor stimulated gene 6 intrinsically regulates PD-L1 expressions in breast cancer cells,leading to modulation of tumour microenvironment

Recent studies have shown that tumour cells express tumour necrosis factor-inducible gene 6 (TSG-6) and its protein, which is known to play a key role in regulating excessive immune responses and proliferation and growth of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). It has not been confirmed whether the inhibition of TSG-6 for tumour cells can suppress tumour cell growth and regulate the activation of immune cells in the tumour microenvironment (TME). TSG-6-specific small interfering RNA was transfected into canine and human breast cancer cells (CIPp, CIPm and BT-20). TSG-6-down-regulated (siTSG-6) cells showed decreased cell proliferation, migration, and invasion abilities. Decreased mRNA expressions of NF-κB, STAT3 and Sox2, confirming that TSG-6 is an upper factor governing tumour growth and metastasis. Notably, siTSG-6 cells showed significantly decreased expression levels of CD44 and PD-L1. Direct and indirect co-culture of canine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (cPBMCs) and the siTSG-6 cells showed significant activation in M1 type macrophages and cytotoxic T cells. They also showed a tendency to decrease in the expression of CTLA-4 and increase in the expression of PD-1. In conclusion, this study suggests that the down-regulation of TSG-6 in breast cancer cells could not only suppress tumour growth and metastasis, and but also regulate TME. Since modulation of immune checkpoint proteins occurs in both tumour cells and immune cells, inhibiting TSG-6 and its protein within the TME could be novel therapeutic target for anticancer treatment.     

Relationship between three novel SNPs of BRCA1 and canine mammary tumors

The BRCA1 gene plays an important role in the development of human breast cancer, and recent research indicated that genetic variations of BRCA1 are also related to canine mammary tumors (CMTs). Here, using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE), we cloned the 5′- and 3′-UTRs of BRCA1. By direct sequencing of the flanking sequences of the 5′- and 3′-UTRs of BRCA1, three previously unreported single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were identified, two (−1228T >C, −1173C >T) in the putative promoter regions and one non-synonymous SNP (63449G >A) in exon 23. Compared with 16 normal samples, the sequences from 34 CMTs suggested that SNP (−1173C >T) was associated with the development of CMTs (odds ratio (OR)=2.57, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.07–6.15).
