To explore the feasibility of using UAV-LiDAR for measuring the leaf area index (LAI) of crop canopies, we employed UAV-LiDAR to scan sugarcane canopies during the tillering and elongation stages, acquiring canopy point cloud data. Subsequently, features such as average row height, projected row area, point cloud density at different canopy layers, and the ratios between these parameters were extracted. Three feature selection methods-partial least squares regression (PLSR), XGBoost feature importance (XGBoost-FI), and random forest-recursive feature elimination (RF-RFE)-were adopted to evaluate and identify the optimal input variables for modeling. With these selected variables, LAI inversion models were developed based on random forest (RF) and adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) algorithms, and their performance was assessed. Among the extracted features, the projected row area Sp and the total row point count Ctotal exhibited strong correlations with LAI, with correlation coefficients of 0.73 and 0.72, respectively. The AdaBoost-based LAI inversion model, using the projected row area Sp, average height Havg, mid-layer point cloud density Cm, and total row point count Ctotal as input variables, achieved the best performance, with a coefficient of determination (Rv²) of 0.713 and a root mean square error (RMSEv) of 0.25 on the validation set. This study provides an effective method for high-throughput acquisition of LAI in field crops, offering valuable scientific support for sugarcane field management and breeding efforts.

[摘 要] 目的:探究包被蛋白复合体β1亚基(COPB1)在食管鳞状细胞癌(ESCC)中的表达,及其对ESCC细胞恶性生物学行为的影响、作用机制及临床意义。方法:采用2014~2018年间在河北医科大学第四医院生物样本库中82例ESCC组织及癌旁组织,常规培养正常食管鳞状上皮细胞HEEC和食管癌细胞KYSE-150、KYSE-170、Eca109、TE1、KYSE-30、KYSE-450,用转染试剂将pcDNA3.1-vector(空载体)、pcDNA3.1-COPB1载体,si-NC和si-COPB1转染至KYSE-150、TE1细胞中,记为NC、COPB1-OE、si-NC和si-COPB1组。用数据库数据分析COPB1 mRNA在泛癌组织中的表达及其表达与免疫细胞浸润的关系,qPCR法检测ESCC组织和细胞中COPB1、PIK3CB、CD68、CD163、CD206、ARG1、IL-10 mRNA水平表达情况,WB法检测ESCC组织和各组细胞中的COPB1、PI3K、CD68、CD163、CD206、p-AKT蛋白表达,克隆形成实验和MTS实验检测各组细胞的增殖能力,划痕愈合实验和Transwell实验检测各组细胞的迁移和侵袭能力,免疫组织化学染色(IHC)法检测ESCC组织中COPB1和CD206蛋白表达。以人单核细胞白血病细胞(THP-1)构建巨噬细胞模型,用佛波酯(PMA)和IL-3和IL-4和ESCC细胞上清液诱导巨噬细胞转型,用qPCR和WB法检测CD68和CD206m RNA和蛋白的表达。结果:COPB1在泛癌组织和ESCC组织中均呈高表达且与淋巴结转移和TNM分期有关联(均P < 0.01),COPB1高表达的ESCC患者总生存期短(P < 0.05),COPB1是潜在的ESCC的诊断标志物。COPB1在KYSE-150和TE1细胞中也呈高表达(均P < 0.05),过表达或敲减COPB1可明显抑制或促进KYSE-150和TE1细胞的增殖能力、迁移和侵袭能力(均P < 0.05)。COPB1表达变化诱导的差异表达基因主要富集于PI3K/AKT通路(均P < 0.001), COPB1可促进PI3K/AKT通路的活化(P < 0.05),COPB1高表达可导致M2型巨噬细胞浸润增加(P < 0.05),COPB1高表达促进TAM/M2极化(P < 0.05)。结论:COPB1在ESCC组织中呈高表达,其可激活PI3K/AKT通路及调控肿瘤免疫微环境促进 ESCC发生发展,COPB1有望成为ESCC诊断和预后的生物标志物及治疗靶点。

Objective To detect the expression change of ETFβin diabetic nephropathy rats and study the role of ETFβin fatty acid-induced apoptosis in renal tubules.Methods Diabetic nephropathy model was established by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and unilateral nephrectomy.In vivo ETFβexpression was detected in renal cortex, as well as tubular injury evaluated.In vitro fatty acid-induced apoptosis in renal tubular cells NRK 52E model was established and ETFβrecombinant plasmid was constructed to be transfected into NRK 52E cells and furtherly to observe the effect of ETFβover-expression on the fatty acid-induced apoptosis.Results In the rats model of diabetic nephropathy induced by streptozotocin injection and unilateral nephrectomy, ETFβmRNA and protein expression were decreased as obvious tubular damage occurred.Fatty acids could induce apoptosis in NRK 52E, and ETFβover-expression reduced the apoptosis.Conclusion The expression of ETFβis decreased in diabetic nephropathy model , and ETFβover-expression can reduce apoptosis induced by fatty acid in renal tubular cells.
