We report the discovery of a high-velocity star J0731+3717, whose backward trajectory about 21 Myr ago intersected that of globular cluster M15 within the cluster tidal radius. Both its metallicity [Fe/H] and alpha-to-iron abundance ratio [[Formula: see text]/Fe] are consistent with those of M15. Furthermore, its location falls right on the fiducial sequence of cluster M15 on the color-absolute magnitude diagram, suggesting similar ages. These findings support the notion that J0731+3717 was originally associated with M15 at a confidence level of 'seven nines'. We find that such a high-velocity star ([Formula: see text] km s[Formula: see text]) was most likely tidally ejected from as close as one astronomical unit to the center of M15, confirming an IMBH ([Formula: see text] with a credibility of 98%) as the exclusive nature of the central unseen mass proposed previously.</p>","PeriodicalId":18842,"journal":{"name":"National Science Review","volume":"12 2","pages":"nwae347"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2024-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11809261/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143391299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This most abundant nuclide enters the biosphere as organically bound C-14 (OBC-14), posing a potential threat to public health. Yet, it remains unknown how this relatively low radiotoxic nuclide induces health risks via chemical effects, such as isotope effect. By establishing a trophic transfer model involving algae (<i>Scenedesmus obliquus</i>), daphnia (<i>Daphnia magna</i>) and zebrafish (<i>Danio rerio</i>), we demonstrate that rapid incorporation and transformation of inorganic C-14 by algae into OBC-14 facilitates the blending of C-14 into the biomolecules of zebrafish. We find that internalized C-14 is persistently retained in the brain of zebrafish, affecting DNA methylation and causing alterations in neuropathology. Global isotope tracing metabolomics with C-14 exposure further reveals the involvement of C-14 in various critical metabolic pathways, including one-carbon metabolism and nucleotide metabolism. We thus characterize the kinetic isotope effects for <sup>12</sup>C/<sup>14</sup>C in the key reactions of these metabolic pathways through kinetic experiments and density functional theory computations, showing that the isotopic substitution of carbon in biochemicals regulates metabolism by disrupting reaction ratios via isotope effects. Our results suggest that inorganic C-14 discharged by the nuclear industry can be biotransformed into OBC-14 to impact metabolism via isotope effects, providing new insights into understanding the health risk of C-14, which is traditionally considered as a low radiotoxic nuclide.</p>","PeriodicalId":18842,"journal":{"name":"National Science Review","volume":"12 1","pages":"nwae346"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2024-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11706001/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142951453","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"综合性期刊","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
