Identity authentication is a crucial line of defense for network security, and passwords are still the mainstream of identity authentication. So far trawling password attacking has been extensively studied, but the research related with personal information is always sporadic. Probabilistic context-free grammar (PCFG) and Markov chain-based models perform greatly well in trawling guessing. In this paper we propose a systematic targeted attacking model based on structure partition and string reorganization by migrating the above two models to targeted attacking, denoted as TG-SPSR. In structure partition phase, besides dividing passwords to basic structure similar to PCFG, we additionally define a trajectory-based keyboard pattern in the basic grammar and introduce index bits to accurately characterize the position of special characters. Moreover, we also construct a BiLSTM recurrent neural network classifier to characterize the behavior of password reuse and modification after defining nine kinds of modification rules. Extensive experimental results indicate that in online attacking, TG-SPSR outperforms traditional trawling attacking algorithms by average about 275%, and respectively outperforms its foremost counterparts, Personal-PCFG, TarGuess-I, by about 70% and 19%; In offline attacking, TG-SPSR outperforms traditional trawling attacking algorithms by average about 90%, outperforms Personal-PCFG and TarGuess-I by 85% and 30%, respectively.

There are a large number of concrete bonding interfaces in assembled concrete structures. Moreover, the problems of deformation and coordination at the interfaces lead to weak bonding under shrinkage and creep. The theoretical methods and analytical solutions for the long-term performance of composite structures in recent literatures are relatively complicated for the review or optimization in the design stage. Hence, a method for calculating the mid-span deflection of and the cross-sectional stress on composite beams under shrinkage and creep was developed based on the average curvature method. The calculation method was then verified by the experiments and the numerical simulations. Further, factors affecting the deflection of and the stress on the assembled concrete composite beams, including the loading age, the reinforcement ratio, the section dimensions, and the surface area in contact with the atmosphere were analyzed by using the developed method. The results revealed that the adjustment of the section dimensions and the loading time is the effective optimization approach. A framework for review or optimization of composite concrete beams based on the sensitivity analysis is proposed and a case study is carried out. The results of this work can helpfully be used to control the risk of additional deflections or cracking during the long-term operation of buildings.

Serine protease inhibitors (Serpins) are involved in diverse physiological and developmental processes, consti tuting one of the largest superfamilies of protease inhibitors. They are widely distributed across various or ganisms such as plants, animals, prokaryotes, and viruses. In insects, serpins exert their inhibitory effects on serine proteinase cascades, thereby regulating important pathways such as the Toll pathway and prophenolox idase (proPO) in hemolymph. In this study, we cloned and analyzed the serpin-25 gene in Bombyx mori (Bmserpin-25). Bmserpin-25 mRNA was detected in all examined tissues, with high expression levels observed in the fat body, midgut, and epidermis. Upon injection of B. mori with four different microorganisms, including Grampositive microbes (Micrococcus luteus), Gram-negative microbes (E. coli), fungi (Beauveria bassiana), and the B. mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV), the significant changes in Bmserpin-25 expression were observed specifically in response to E. coli and BmNPV treatments. Furthermore, the recombinant Bmserpin-25 was suc cessfully expressed in Escherichia coli and purified for subsequent functional analysis. In vitro experiments showed that the recombinant Bmserpin-25 protein inhibited proPO activation but did not affect phenoloxidase activity. Additionally, injection of recombinant Bmserpin-25 protein into B. mori larvae resulted in a significant downregulation of antimicrobial peptide gene expression in the fat body. These findings emphasize the crucial role of serpin-25 in prophenoloxidase activation and the regulation of antimicrobial peptide gene expression in B. mori.

Purpose: Recent studies have demonstrated that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is of importance in asthmatic inflammation. The role of MIF in modulating airway remodeling has not yet been thoroughly elucidated to date. In the present study, we hypothesized that MIF promoted airway remodeling by intensifying airway smooth muscle cell (ASMC) autophagy and explored the specific mechanisms. Methods: MIF knockdown in the lung tissues of C57BL/6 mice was conducted by instilling intratracheally adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors (MIF-mutant AAV9) into mouse lung tissues. Mice genetically deficient in the autophagy marker ATG5 (ATG5+/−) was used to detect the role of autophagy in ovalbumin (OVA)-asthmatic murine models. Moreover, to block the expression of MIF and CD74 in vitro models, inhibitors, antibodies and lentivirus transfection techniques were employed. Results: First, MIF knockdown in the lung tissues of mice showed markedly reduced airway remodeling in OVA murine mice models. Secondly, ASMC autophagy was increased in the OVA-challenged models. Mice genetically deficient in the autophagy marker ATG5 (ATG5+/−) that were primed and challenged with OVA showed lower airway remodeling than genetically wild-type asthmatic mice. Thirdly, MIF can induce ASMC autophagy in vitro. Moreover, the cellular source of MIF which promoted ASMC autophagy was macrophages. Finally, MIF promoted ASMC autophagy in a CD74-dependent manner. Conclusions: MIF can increase asthmatic airway remodeling by enhancing ASMC autophagy. Macrophage-derived MIF can promote ASMC autophagy by targeting CD74.

A new cold tolerant germplasm resource named glutinous rice 89-1 (Gr89-1, Oryza sativa L.) can overwinter using axillary buds, with these buds being ratooned the following year. The overwintering seedling rate (OSR) is an important factor for evaluating cold tolerance. Many quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling cold tolerance at different growth stages in rice have been identified, with some of these QTLs being successfully cloned. However, no QTLs conferring to the OSR trait have been located in the perennial O. sativa L. To identify QTLs associated with OSR and to evaluate cold tolerance. 286 F12 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between the cold tolerant variety Gr89-1 and cold sensitive variety Shuhui527 (SH527) were used. A total of 198 polymorphic simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers that were distributed uniformly on 12 chromosomes were used to construct the linkage map. The gene ontology (GO) annotation of the major QTL was performed through the rice genome annotation project system. Three main-effect QTLs (qOSR2, qOSR3, and qOSR8) were detected and mapped on chromosomes 2, 3, and 8, respectively. These QTLs were located in the interval of RM14208 (35,160,202 base pairs (bp))–RM208 (35,520,147 bp), RM218 (8,375,236 bp)–RM232 (9,755,778 bp), and RM5891 (24,626,930 bp)–RM23608 (25,355,519 bp), and explained 19.6%, 9.3%, and 11.8% of the phenotypic variations, respectively. The qOSR2 QTL displayed the largest effect, with a logarithm of odds score (LOD) of 5.5. A total of 47 candidate genes on the qOSR2 locus were associated with 219 GO terms. Among these candidate genes, 11 were related to cell membrane, 7 were associated with cold stress, and 3 were involved in response to stress and biotic stimulus. OsPIP1;3 was the only one candidate gene related to stress, biotic stimulus, cold stress, and encoding a cell membrane protein. After QTL mapping, a total of three main-effect QTLs—qOSR2, qOSR3, and qOSR8—were detected on chromosomes 2, 3, and 8, respectively. Among these, qOSR2 explained the highest phenotypic variance. All the QTLs elite traits come from the cold resistance parent Gr89-1. OsPIP1;3 might be a candidate gene of qOSR2.
