The Hallmarks of Aging

In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes.

For example, a key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process versus those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process including the amount and rate of cargo sequestered and degraded). In particular, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation must be differentiated from stimuli that increase autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. It is worth emphasizing here that lysosomal digestion is a stage of autophagy and evaluating its competence is a crucial part of the evaluation of autophagic flux, or complete autophagy.

Here, we present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. Along these lines, because of the potential for pleiotropic effects due to blocking autophagy through genetic manipulation, it is imperative to target by gene knockout or RNA interference more than one autophagy-related protein. In addition, some individual Atg proteins, or groups of proteins, are involved in other cellular pathways implying that not all Atg proteins can be used as a specific marker for an autophagic process. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field.

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy

Climate change and anthropogenic activity are changing the dynamics balance of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) environmental balance, which would impact the safety and stability of the infrastructure. The Qinghai-Tibet Railway (QTR) is the longest structure in the QTP, and some section of the QTR's embankment has been damaged due to the freezing and thawing of the QTP. With the high resolution SAR image, the structure of the QTR can be recognized and analyzed. In this paper, the freezing displacement and thermal dilation of the QTR has been analyzed. It is found that seasonal displacement over a range of 70mm, which may correlated with the water contend of the active layer. And the thermal dilation of the QTR has been founded and analyzed.

Role of kisspeptin in decidualization and unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion via the ERK1/2 signalling pathway.

To well keep track of progress towards the 17 Sustainable Development Goals and the corresponding 169 targets of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development signed in 2015, the UN Statistical Commission proposed a Global Indicator Framework (GIF) of 232 SDG indicators to help countries to implement development strategies and monitor the progress toward the SDG Targets. In the past years, the contributions of EO-based data to the GIF are recognized and regarded as it will play more important role in the next 10 years of action to realize the SDGs of 2030. In this paper the contributions of Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) to the 232 SDG Indicators are assessed, which can monitor our planet day and night as an important part of EO. And in order to better support the SDGs in the future, the specifications of the SAR-based dataset (products) and the corresponding requirements for the new generation SAR are discussed, which is helpful for the proposed SAR mission designated to SDGs.

Purpose This study evaluated the prevalence of vertebral fractures (VF) in middle-aged and elderly Chinese men and women and explored the differences in lumbar spine volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) derived from quantitative CT (QCT) between those with a grade 1 vertebral fracture and non-fractured individuals. Materials and methods 3,457 participants were enrolled in the China Action on Spine and Hip Status (CASH) study and had upper abdominal CT examinations. Vertebral fractures were identified by Genant’s semi-quantitative method from lateral CT scout views or CT sagittal views. L1-3 vBMD was measured by Mindways QCT Pro v5.0 software. The characteristics of different fracture severity groups were compared using one-way ANOVA, independent-samples t-tests, and Kruskal-Wallis H-tests. Results 1267 males (aged 62.77 ± 9.20 years) and 2170 females (aged 61.41 ± 9.01 years) were included in the analysis. In men, the prevalence of VF increased from 14.7% at age<50 years to 23.2% at age ≥70 years, and in women from 5.1% at age<50 years to 33.0% at age ≥70 years. Differences in mean age and vBMD were found between the different fracture grade groups. After age stratification, vBMD differences in men aged < 50 years old disappeared (p = 0.162) but remained in the older age bands. There was no significant difference in mean vBMD between those with multiple mild fractures and those with a single mild fracture. Conclusion In women, the prevalence of VF increased rapidly after age 50, while it grew more slowly in men. In general, with the exception of men <50 years old, participants with a grade 1 VF had lower vBMD than non-fractured individuals. The majority of women younger than 50 with a grade 1 VF had normal bone mass. We recommend that a vertebral height reduction ratio of <25% be diagnosed as a deformity rather than a fracture in people under the age of 50. The presence of multiple mild fractured vertebrae does not imply lower BMD.
