However, the traditional DMCS-CVQKD scheme cannot tolerate the high channel excess noise and channel loss, compared to the Gaussian-modulated scheme, and its error correction is still difficult. In this paper, we propose a discrete-modulated coherent-state basis-encoding quantum key distribution (DMCS-BE-QKD) protocol, where the secret keys are encoded in the random choice of 2 measurement bases, i.e., the conjugate quadratures <i>X</i> and <i>P</i> of discrete-modulated coherent states, and it only needs simple binary sequence error correction. We analyze the secret key rate of DMCS-BE-QKD protocol under individual and collective attacks in the linear Gaussian channel. The results show that DMCS-BE-QKD can greatly enhance the ability to tolerate the channel loss and excess noise compared to the original DMCS-CVQKD protocol, which can tolerate approximately 40 dB more channel loss compared to the original DMCS-CVQKD for the realistic value of noise. Finally, a proof-of-principle experiment is conducted under a 50.5-km optical fiber to verify the feasibility of DMCS-BE-QKD. It is based on the consistent physical procedures of the traditional DMCS-CVQKD, which makes it perfectly compatible to deployed terminals and can serve as a multiplier for the practical secure quantum cryptography communication in harsh environments.</p>","PeriodicalId":21120,"journal":{"name":"Research","volume":"8 ","pages":"0691"},"PeriodicalIF":11.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12076462/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144079908","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}

However, the precise circuit mechanisms through which MPOA GABAergic neurons influence behavior remain incompletely understood. Here, we identified robust projections from MPOA GABAergic neurons to the paraventricular nucleus of the hypothalamus (PVN). In HW mice, chemogenetic activation of MPOA GABAergic neurons targeting PVN attenuated depressive-like behaviors. Conversely, in nonhormone withdrawal (NHW) control mice (which received continuous estrogen), suppression of MPOA GABAergic projections to PVN exacerbated depressive-like behaviors. Further analyses using quantitative polymerase chain reaction and immunostaining identified arginine vasopressin (AVP) as a key neuropeptide in this pathway in the HW mouse model. Chemogenetic inhibition of PVN^AVP neurons significantly alleviated depressive-like behaviors in HW mice, while their activation in NHW mice worsened depressive-like behaviors. These behaviors were dependent on AVP expression in PVN^AVP neurons. Moreover, in HW mice, chemogenetic inhibition of PVN^AVP neurons receiving MPOA input mitigated depressive-like behaviors. Conversely, in NHW mice, activation of these neurons exacerbated depressive-like behaviors. Electrophysiological recordings demonstrated that MPOA GABAergic neurons directly inhibit PVN^AVP neurons. Thus, our findings suggest that PVN^AVP neurons serve as downstream effectors of MPOA GABAergic neurons via monosynaptic inhibitory signaling to regulate depressive-like behaviors.

Unlike other cell death mechanisms, its distinct process has drawn considerable interest for its promising applications in managing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and colorectal cancer (CRC). Emerging evidence indicates that copper metabolism and cuproptosis may exert dual regulatory effects within pathological cellular environments, specifically modulating oxidative stress responses, metabolic reprogramming, and immunotherapeutic efficacy. An appropriate level of copper may promote disease progression and exert synergistic effects, but exceeding a certain threshold, copper can inhibit disease development by inducing cuproptosis in pathological cells. This makes abnormal copper levels a potential new therapeutic target for IBD and CRC. This review emphasizes the dual function of copper metabolism and cuproptosis in the progression of IBD and CRC, while also exploring the potential application of copper-based therapies in disease treatment. The analysis further delineates the modulatory influence of tumor immune microenvironment on cuproptosis dynamics, while establishing the therapeutic potential of cuproptosis-targeted strategies in circumventing resistance to both conventional chemotherapeutic agents and emerging immunotherapies.

In this work, with compounding sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and quaternized lignin (QL), a biodegradable liquid mulch film (PVA@CMC/QL) was constructed by introducing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and a selenium-containing cross-linking agent through electrostatic interaction. The effect of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose and QL on different liquid mulch films was examined. PVA@CMC/QL had exceptional spray-film-forming properties of liquid mulch film and was capable of generating a dense mulch film above the soil/on top of the soil under natural conditions. PVA@CMC/QL exhibited excellent oxygen transmission rate (60.2 cm³·m^-2·d^-1·Pa^-1) and water vapor transmission rate (753.4 g·m^-2·d^-1). Soil temperature and humidity increased by 0.4 to 2.1 °C and 0.5% to 2.8%, respectively, in the soil covered with PVA@CMC/QL compared to those in other controls, thereby confirming its exceptional moisture retention and insulation capabilities. PVA@CMC/QL combined remarkable weed suppression with only 13.3% weed germination under the mulch. Optimal rhizome growth of pak choi seedlings was observed under the PVA@CMC/QL cover, as demonstrated by the planting of both pak choi seedlings and weeds. Roots and stems increased by 3.8 ± 0.3 and 1.2 ± 0.3 cm, respectively. The weed suppression mechanism of PVA@CMC/QL was explained through the lens of density functional theory. In addition, the selenium content of pak choi seedlings under PVA@CMC/QL cover could reach 28.5 μg/kg, making the mulch film both degradable and highly reusable.
