三、询问论文审查回音
Dear Editors，
It is more than 12 weeks since I submitted our manuscript (No: ) for possible publication in your journal. I have not yet received a reply and am wondering whether you have reached a decision. I should appreciated your letting me know what you have decided as soon as possible.
四、关于论文的总体审查意见
1. This is a carefully done study and the findings are of considerable interest. A few minor revision are list below.
2. This is a well-written paper containing interesting results which merit publication. For the benefit of the reader, however, a number of points need clarifying and certain statements require further justification. There are given below.
3. Although these observation are interesting, they are rather limited and do not advance our knowledge of the subject sufficiently to warrant publication in PNAS. We suggest that the authors try submitting their findings to specialist journal such as –
4. Although this paper is good, it would be ever better if some extra data were added.
5. This manuscript is not suitable for publication in the journal of – because the main observation it describe was reported 3 years ago in a reputable journal of - .
6. Please ask someone familiar with English language to help you rewrite this paper. As you will see, I have made some correction at the beginning of the paper where some syntax is not satisfactory.
7. We feel that this potentially interesting study has been marred by an inability to communicate
the finding correctly in English and should like to suggest that the authors seek the advice of someone with a good knowledge of English, preferable native speaker.
8. The wording and style of some section, particularly those concerning HPLC, need careful editing. Attention should be paid to the wording of those parts of the Discussion of and Summary which have been underlined.
9. Preliminary experiments only have been done and with exception of that summarized in Table 2, none has been repeated. This is clearly unsatisfactory, particularly when there is so much variation between assays.
10. The condition of incubation are poorly defined. What is the temperature? Were antibody used?
五、给编辑的回信
1. In reply to the referee’s main criticism of paper, it is possible to say that –
One minor point raised by the referee concerns of the extra composition of the reaction mixture in Figure 1. This has now been corrected. Further minor changes had been made on page 3, paragraph 1 (line 3-8) and 2 (line 6-11). These do not affect our interpretation of the result.
2. I have read the referee’s comments very carefully and conclude that the paper has been rejected on the sole grounds that it lake toxicity data. I admit that I did not include a toxicity table in my article although perhaps I should have done. This was for the sake of brevity rather than an error or omission.
3. Thank you for your letter of –and for the referee’s comments concerning our manuscript entitled “”. We have studied their comments carefully and ha ve made correction which we hope meet with their approval.
4. I enclosed a revised manuscript which includes a report of additional experiments done at the referee’s suggestion. You will see that our original findings are confirmed.
5. We are sending the revised manuscript according to the comments of the reviewers. Revised portion are underlined in red.
6. We found the referee’s comments most helpful and have revised the manuscript
7. We are pleased to note the favorable comments of reviewers in their opening sentence.
8. Thank you for your letter. I am very pleased to learn that our manuscript is acceptable for publication in Cancer Research with minor revision.
9. We have therefore completed a further series of experiments, the result of which are summarized in Table 5. From this we conclude that intrinsic factor is not account.
10. We deleted the relevant passage since they are not essential to the contents of the paper.
11. I feel that the reviewer’s comments concerning Figures 1 and 2 result from a mi sinterpretation of the data.
12. We would have include a non-protein inhibitor in our system, as a control, if one had been available.
13. We prefer to retain the use of Table 4 for reasons that it should be clear from the new paragraph inserted at the end of the Results section.
14. Although reviewer does not consider it is important to measure the temperature of the cells, we consider it essential.
15. The running title has been changed to “”.
16. The Materials and Methods section now includes details for measuring uptake of isotope and assaying hexokinase.
17. The concentration of HAT media (page12 paragraph 2) was incorrectly stated in the original
manuscript. This has been rectified. The authors are grateful to the referees for pointing out their error.
18. As suggested by both referees, a discussion of the possibility of laser action on chromosome has been included (page16, paragraph 2).
19. We included a new set of photographs with better definition than those originally submitted and to which a scale has been added.
20. Following the suggestion of the referees, we have redraw Figure 3 and 4.
21. Two further papers, published since our original submission, have been added to the text and Reference section. These are:
22. We should like to thank the referees for their helpful comments and hope that we have now produced a more balance and better account of our work. We trust that the revised manuscript is acceptable for publication.
23. I greatly appreciate both your help and that of the referees concerning improvement to this paper. I hope that the revised manuscript is now suitable for publication.
24. I should like to express my appreciation to you and the referees for suggesting how to improve our paper.
25. I apologize for the delay in revising the manuscript. This was due to our doing an additional experiment, as suggested by referees.

：《英文论文写作体会》.cn/xiezuo/yyxz/15436.html
本人近日侥幸在某SCI索引的外刊发表一篇论文，想在这里浅谈一下发外文的体会，供学弟、学妹们参考。

我觉得发外文时主要注意以下几点：1. 论文中必须至少有一个创新点。

创新点或是开创性的工作，或是对原有工作的改进，或是提出一种新方法。

老外对公式不是很看重，主要看你是否有创新。

2. 在外刊上发过文章的同学都知道，Introduction部分是最难写的，我认为在这部分中不但要提及题目的意义，别人的研究成果，更重要的是要指出你这篇论文的贡献，以吸引审
稿人的眼球。

3. 标题也很重要，即要新颖又要体现你的论文的主要工作及采用的方法
4. 实验素材要丰富，以数据说话，让人感觉你作了许多工作。

5. 要直接用英文写，学会用英语语言思考问题，不要先写成汉语再翻成英语，这样写出来的东西总有点中国英语的味道，让审稿人看起来不舒服。

6. 平时多看一些牛刊的论文，摘抄一个常用的语句及段落，如开场白、题目的意义、章节安排、语气转折等，活学活用。

这样写出来的文章看起来就很漂亮了。

7. 对审稿人提出的修改意见或建议一定要认真对待，尽量满足他们的要求，如你认为某些意见或建议不妥，要在回信中加以阐述。

8. 认真研究所发期刊的参考文献的引用格式。

我的一位师兄就是因为这点直接被拒了。

Dear Editor,
We would like to submit the enclosed manuscript entitled "GDNF Acutely Modulates Neuronal Excitability and A-type Potassium Channels in Midbrain Dopaminergic Neurons", which we wish to be considered for publication in Nature Neuroscience.
GDNF has long been thought to be a potent neurotrophic factor for the survival of midbrain dopaminergic neurons, which are degenerated in Parkinson’s disease. In this paper, we report an unexpected, acute effect of GDNF on A-type potassium channels, leading to a potentiation of neuronal excitability, in the dopaminergic neurons in culture as well as in adult brain slices. Further, we show that GDNF regulates the K+ channels through a mechanism that involves activation of MAP kinase. Thus, this study has revealed, for the first time, an acute modulation of ion channels by GDNF. Our findings challenge the classic view of GDNF as a long-term survival factor for midbrain dopaminergic neurons, and suggest that the normal function of GDNF is to regulate neuronal excitability, and consequently dopamine release. These results may also have implications in the treatment of Parkinson’s disease.
Due to a direct competition and conflict of interest, we request that Drs. XXX of Harvard Univ., and YY of Yale Univ. not be considered as reviewers. With
thanks for your consideration, I am

Dear Sirs,
I am sending herewith a copy of the manuscript, which I would like to submit to SOLA, the Electronic Journal of the Meteorological Society of Japan.
The paper is entitled:
Energy Spectrum Proportional to the Squared Phase Speed of
Rossby Modes in the General Circulation of the Atmosphere
by H. L. Tanaka, Yasushi Watarai, and Takahiro Kanda.
Copy of the Abstract:
In this study, energy spectrum of the large-scale atmospheric motions is examined in the framework of the 3D normal mode decomposition. The horizontal scale of disturbance is measured by the phase speed of a Rossby mode c. According to the analysis result for the barotropic component of the atmosphere, we obtain a characteristic energy spectrum with distinct slopes for the turbulence and wave regimes separated by the spherical Rhines speed. In order to explain the observational finding that the energy spectrum is proportional to c^2, we put forward a hypothesis based on the criterion of Rossby wave breaking such that the local meridional gradient of potential vorticity becomes negative, dq/dy < 0, somewhere in the domain. With a constant m describing a total mass of the atmosphere for unit area, we have shown that the barotropic energy spectrum of the general circulation E can be represented as E=mc^2.

Re: PAT-09-234 revised
The manuscript PAT-09-234 has been carefully revised and some new data were added in the revised text (please see Table 2), and the major revisions were marked in red. We appreciate the detailed and useful comments and suggestions from you and referees. The point-by-point answers to the comments and suggestions were listed as below.
Referee #1:
Q1.In Fig 1, “50?” should be “50oC”.
Answer:We accept the referee’s suggestion, t his error has been corrected in the revised manuscript.
Q2.Page 4, line 54: “Then the mixture was degassed to remove entrapped air at 150o C in a vacuum oven for 2h.......”. Fig 4 indicated that the gel time of
30%HBPSIEP/BCE at 160 o C is about 100min. if the resin has been cured in degassing process?
Answer: These errors have been corrected and the related paragraph has been rewritten in the revised manuscript.
Q3. In Fig 2, the units for wavenumber should be shown in the diagram.
Answer:We accept the referee’s suggestion, the units for wavenumber have been labelled in the plot, please see the X-axis in Figure 1 in the revised manuscript. Q4. Page 11, line 40: “More interesting, it has been proved that if a material has higher char yield and lower Tmax, then the material will have better flame retardancy.” The author should provide the proof that Higher char yield indicate better flame retardancy.
Answer: The suggestion has been taken seriously and these sentences have been deleted from the revised manuscript due to the deficiency of related proof. Referee #2:
Q1. Authors reported negatively charged membrane but they did not studied membrane conductivity, which is essential property to asses, the suitability of charged membrane.
Answer: As the referee’s comment pointed out, membrane conductivity is really the essential property to evaluate the suitability of charged membrane, especially for their applications in fuel cells. However, for their applications in environmental field, such as the removal of heavy metal ions from the aqueous solution, membrane conductivity seems to be less important. This is because in this case we mainly concern the ion-exchange capacity rather than the proton conductivity. Consequently, we think it is not necessary to highlight membrane conductivity of the prepared negatively charged hybrid membranes and these data were not reported in this manuscript.
Q2.Extremely low ion-exchange capacities of developed membranes (0.2-0.3 mmol g-1) jeopardize their applications.
Answer: As the referee’s comment pointed out, the ion-exchange capacities (IECs) of the prepared membranes were relatively lower. Thus will influence their applications as adsorbent for the removal of heavy metal ions from water. This is the reason why the adsorption behaviors for removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions using these hybrid membranes were not reported in this study.
For their applications in industry especially in environmental field, further work is thus required to optimize the membrane preparation process so as to highly elevate the IEC values of these hybrid membranes. We believe this problem will be solved with the further improvement on membrane properties and optimization of operational parameters. When the membrane properties are improved and ideal IECs are obtained, their adsorption behaviors for removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions will be further investigated, which will be our future job. This explain has been added in the revised manuscript, please see lines 5-14 on page 13. Q3. A membrane should have good mechanical stability for its applications. But author failed to include any information on the mechanical stability of the membrane.
Answer: As the referee’s comment pointed out, good mechanical stability of a membrane can conduce to its application especially for its use in industrial separation by pressure. Geneally speaking, organic membrane has lower mechanical strength and stability, it can not meet the need of separation in industry. Consequently, hybridization technique is used to increase the membrane’s mechanical and stability. Nonetheless, for hybrid membranes potentially used in non-pressure operating condition, thermal stability may be more attractive in that they expects to be used in higher temperature and strongly oxidizing circumstances for industrial applications (as stated in the abstract). In our case, the prepared membranes expect to be used in environmental field, not be used to separate species by pressure, thus we mainly concern their thermal stability rather than their mechanical strength. Due to these reasons, the thermal stability of the prepared membranes was highlighted and the mechanical stability of the membrane was not reported in this manuscript.
Q4. Author should also include proposed applications for the reported membranes. It would have been better that author should complete their investigation for adsorption behaviors for removal of heavy metal ions from aqueous solutions using reported membranes and report the findings also. This would have been attractive feature of。
