Introduction: Exploring flows and counter-flows of information along the New Silk Road
In: Communication and the public: CAP, Band 4, Heft 4, S. 255-260
ISSN: 2057-0481
Six years have passed since China unveiled the Belt and Road Initiative (Yidai Yilu一带一路, formally called One Belt One Road), which was initiated to reconnect China with countries in Asia, Middle East, Europe, and Africa and to improve regional cooperation through better connectivity, enhanced trade exchange, and shared opportunity. By understanding the importance of Europe as the destination of both the "Belt"—a more developed inland connectivity and the "Road"—a more enhanced sea routes network; and observing the mixed information flow of acceptance—resistance, cooperation—dispute, and agreement—disagreement in different countries along the silk road, China Media Observatory of Institute of Media and Journalism, Faculty of Communication Sciences, at Università della Svizzera Italiana (Lugano) is editing this special symposium as a collection of the papers include studies of different media narratives that shape public understanding of Belt and Road Initiative and discuss how Belt and Road Initiative and China's vision of connecting different stakeholders for international collaborations are reported in both legacy news media and social media.

Statistical analysis on key economic areas of China
"China's reform and opening-up have contributed to its long-term and rapid economic development, resulting in a much stronger economic strength and much better life for its people. Meanwhile, the deepening economic integration between China and the world has resulted in an increasingly complex environment, growing influencing factors and severe challenges to China's economic development. Under the "new normal" of the Chinese economy, accurate analysis of the economic situation is essential to scientific decision-making, sustainable and healthy economic development and to build a moderately prosperous society in all respects. By applying statistical and national economic accounting methods, and based on detailed statistics and national economic accounting data, this book presents an in-depth analysis of the key economic fields, such as real estate economy, automotive industry, high-tech industry, investment, opening-up, income distribution of residents, economic structure, balance of payments structure and financial operation, since the reform and opening-up, especially in recent years. It aims to depict the performance and characteristics of these key economic fields and their roles in the development of national economy, thus providing useful suggestions for economic decision-making, and facilitating the sustainable and healthy development of the economy and the realization of the goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects."

Albeit a host of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNA) are emerging as new players involved in bladder tumor, the functions of many lncRNAs are still enigmatic. Reports on the deluge of studies on lncRNA ADAMTS9-AS2 have been convincingly associated with various tumors, but without mention of its roles in bladder tumor. Therefore, the roles of ADAMTS9-AS2 in bladder tumor cells were explored in our study.Materials and Methods: Quantitative real-time PCR assays and bioinformatic tools were applied in bladder tumor cells to identify the ADAMTS9-AS2 and ADAMTS9 expression. Western blot assays were performed to obtain the protein levels of bladder tumor related key molecules. CCK8, clonogenic assay, scratch wound healing, and transwell assays were separately applied to identify the functional roles of ADAMTS9-AS2 on proliferation, migration, and invasion in bladder tumor cells.Results: First, ADAMTS9-AS2 downregulation in bladder tumor cells was identified. Overexpression and knockdown experiments showed that ADAMTS9-AS2 expression was positively related to ADAMTS9, which is in accordance with the results from GEO database. Second, ADAMTS9-AS2 contributed to the inhibition of proliferation, migration, and invasion in bladder tumor cells. Third, ADAMTS9-AS2 was linked with PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway related-molecules, several key autophagy, and apoptotic proteins.Conclusion: Conjointly, our findings suggested that ADAMTS9-AS2 might function as a tumor suppressor to restrain the proliferation, migration, and invasion in bladder tumor cells. The potential mechanism of ADAMTS9-AS2 related to PI3K/AKT/mTOR signal pathway was further identified. Of note, we found that ADAMTS9-AS2 has a significant effect on several key autophagy and apoptotic proteins. Therefore, these observations will provide supportive evidence to ADAMTS9-AS2 as a potential biomarker in patients with bladder tumor.Keywords: lncRNA ADAMTS9-AS2, proliferation, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, bladder tumor
