TL;DR: This review summarizes the results of recent studies showing that certain cell adhesion molecules, particularly the cadherins family of Ca(2+)-dependent cellAdhesion molecules and the immunoglobulin family ofCa(2-)-independent cell ad cohesion molecules, may be important early targets on which toxic metals such as a Cd, Hg, and Pb act to produce their toxic effects.

TL;DR: The Society of Critical Care Medicine Discovery Network Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study provides an example of a rapidly deployed, international, pandemic registry that seeks to provide near real-time analytics and information regarding intensive care treatments and outcomes for patients with coronavirus disease 2019.
Abstract: The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic has disproportionally strained intensive care services worldwide Large areas of uncertainly regarding epidemiology, physiology, practice patterns, and resource demands for patients with coronavirus disease 2019 require rapid collection and dissemination of data We describe the conception and implementation of an intensive care database rapidly developed and designed to meet data analytic needs in response to the coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic-the multicenter, international Society of Critical Care Medicine Discovery Network Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study Design: Prospective cohort study and disease registry Setting: Multinational cohort of ICUs Patients: Critically ill patients with a diagnosis of coronavirus disease 2019 Interventions: None Measurements and Main Results: Within 2 weeks of conception of the Society of Critical Care Medicine Discovery Network Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study, study leadership was convened, registry case report forms were designed, electronic data entry set up, and more than 250 centers had submitted the protocol for institutional review board approval, with more than 100 cases entered Conclusions: The Society of Critical Care Medicine Discovery Network Viral Infection and Respiratory Illness Universal Study provides an example of a rapidly deployed, international, pandemic registry that seeks to provide near real-time analytics and information regarding intensive care treatments and outcomes for patients with coronavirus disease 2019

TL;DR: A large-scale circRNA profiling identified 2174 and 1354 high-confidence circRNAs in maize and Arabidopsis, respectively, and most were differentially expressed in response to drought, suggesting important roles in maize drought responses or their potential use as biomarkers for breeding drought-tolerant maize.
Abstract: Drought is a major abiotic stress that threatens global food security. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous RNAs. How these molecules influence plant stress responses remains elusive. Here, a large-scale circRNA profiling identified 2174 and 1354 high-confidence circRNAs in maize and Arabidopsis, respectively, and most were differentially expressed in response to drought. A substantial number of drought-associated circRNA-hosting genes were involved in conserved or species-specific pathways in drought responses. Comparative analysis revealed that circRNA biogenesis was more complex in maize than in Arabidopsis. In most cases, maize circRNAs were negatively correlated with sRNA accumulation. In 368 maize inbred lines, the circRNA-hosting genes were enriched for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with circRNA expression and drought tolerance, implying either important roles of circRNAs in maize drought responses or their potential use as biomarkers for breeding drought-tolerant maize. Additionally, the expression levels of circRNAs derived from drought-responsible genes encoding calcium-dependent protein kinase and cytokinin oxidase/dehydrogenase were significantly associated with drought tolerance of maize seedlings. Specifically, Arabidopsis plants overexpressing circGORK (Guard cell outward-rectifying K+ -channel) were hypersensitive to abscisic acid, but insensitive to drought, suggesting a positive role of circGORK in drought tolerance. We report the transcriptomic profiling and transgenic studies of circRNAs in plant drought responses, and provide evidence highlighting the universal molecular mechanisms involved in plant drought tolerance.

TL;DR: In this article, a temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) study has been conducted in Ge1−xSnx films with Sn compositions of 0.9, 3.2, and 6.0% grown on Si.
Abstract: Temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) study has been conducted in Ge1−xSnx films with Sn compositions of 0.9%, 3.2%, and 6.0% grown on Si. The competing between the direct and indirect bandgap transitions was clearly observed. The relative peak intensity of direct transition with respect to the indirect transition increases with an increase in temperature, indicating the direct transition dominates the PL at high temperature. Furthermore, as Sn composition increases, a progressive enhancement of direct transition was observed due to the reduction of direct-indirect valley separation, which experimentally confirms that the Ge1−xSnx could become the group IV-based direct bandgap material grown on Si by increasing the Sn content.
