“…Three-month and 2-year average PM(2.5) concentrations were estimated at each participant’s address using a spatiotemporal model based on satellite-derived aerosol optical depth data. Multivariable linear and logistic regressions were used to examine the associations between PM(2.5) and semen quality. …”

“…We used a spatiotemporal model to estimate 2-year average PM(2.5) exposure at each participant’s address, based on satellite-derived aerosol optical depth data. General regression models were used for baseline data analysis and mixed-effects linear regression models were used for repeated data analysis to investigate the associations between PM(2.5) exposure and CRP, adjusting for a wide range of potential confounders. …”

“…In vitro, pretreatment of hMSCs with recombinant leptin (hMSCs-Lep(pre)) displayed improved cell survival against severe ischemic condition (glucose and serum deprivation under hypoxia), which was associated with increased mitochondrial fusion. Subsequently, Optic atrophy 1 (OPA1), a mitochondrial inner membrane protein that regulates fusion and cristae structure, was significantly elevated in the hMSCs-Lep(pre) group, and the protection of leptin was abrogated by targeting OPA1 with a selective siRNA. …”
