| 1 | A Possible Dynamic Mechanism for Rapid Production of the Extreme Hourly Rainfall in Zhengzhou City on 20 July 2021显示文摘In this study,the unprecedented extreme rainfall event during 19-20 July 2021,which caused devastating flooding in Zhengzhou City and its nearby areas,is examined based on observational data analysis and WRF model 40-h simulations on 1-km horizontal resolution.The results show that the model successfully reproduces(i)major synopticscale weather systems(i.e.,the western Pacific subtropical high,the Tibetan high,two typhoons,and the Huang-Huai cyclone),(ii)convective initiation along the east to north edge of the Songshan Mountain,where orographic lifting is obvious,and(iii)subsequent formation of the convective storm producing the extreme rainfall in Zhengzhou.In particular,the model generates the maximum rainfall rate of 233 mm h^(-1)and 40-h accumulated rainfall of 704 mm,corresponding well to the observed extreme values of 201.9 mm h^(-1)and 818 mm,at nearly observed timing and location.Importantly,the model reproduces an intense quasi-stationary,well-organized meso-γ-scale convective system,surrounded by an arc-shaped convergence zone,allowing the development of convective updrafts in a three-quarter circle around the convective system,in a way similar to“multidirectional pumping,”attracting all associated precipitation overlaid and concentrated into the same trailing region to generate the extreme hourly rainfall over Zhengzhou.Our study emphasizes the significant contribution of the unique dynamic structure of the well-organized meso-γ-scale convective system to the record-high hourly rainfall.A possible dynamic mechanism for short-time extreme rainfall production is proposed.That is,the arc-shaped convergence zone of the mesoscale convective system,acting like multidirectional lifting pumps,transports precipitation from different directions into the same region,and thus produces the extreme rainfall.The results gained herein may shed new light on better understanding and forecasting of short-time extreme rainfall. | Jinfang YIN Haodong GU Xudong LIANG Miao YU Jisong SUN Yanxin XIE Feng LI Chong WU | 2022 | Journal of Meteorological Research2022，36，1： | 17 |
| 2 | Application of Optical Tweezers in the Research of Molecular Interaction between Lymphocyte Function Associated Antigen-1 and Its Monoclonal Antibody显示文摘Lymphocyte function associated antigen-1 (CD11a/CD18, LFA-1) plays an important role in the structure of the immunological synapse and is required for efficient lysis of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and natural killer (NK) cells. To study the activation mode of LFA-1 on the NK cell surface, optical tweezers were used in the work. As an emerging technology, optical tweezers are widely used to manipulate microscopic objects and measure the forces of molecular interactions in the field of biological research. In our study, a new platform was constructed to study the single molecular behavior of receptor on cell surface using optical tweezers. Based on the platform, the interaction between an NK cell and a polystyrene microsphere coated with anti-LFA-1 antibody was observed. The result confirmed that the adhesion forces between an NK cell and a polystyrene bead were time-dependent. According to our findings, we propose that anti-LFA-1 antibody may cause the clustering of LFA-1 on NK cell surface. | Haodong Chen Kuikui Ge Yinmei Li Jianguang Wu Yongqiang Gu Haiming Wei Zhigang Tian | 2007 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2007，4，3： | 3 |
| 3 | Host defense peptide-mimicking peptide polymer-based antibacterial hydrogel enables efficient healing of MRSA-infected wounds显示文摘Wound infections are a compelling health issue caused by the invasion and proliferation of pathogens in wound sites.Antibioticloaded hydrogels are widely used to achieve anti-infectious wound healing.However,due to the quick emergence of drugresistant bacteria,such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA),wound infection has been a formidable challenge to human health.To address MRSA-infected wounds,an antibacterial peptide polymer-loaded hyaluronic acid(HA)hydrogel(Gel-HA@P)is prepared.The peptide polymer is designed to mimic host defense peptides as the antibiotic alternative showing potent antibacterial activity,low susceptibility to drug resistance and good stability against proteolysis.HA is biocompatible and biodegradable hydrogel substrate as a primary constituent of the extracellular matrix and suitable for cell migration and wound healing.Gel-HA@P shows potent activity against MRSA in vitro and in vivo,low toxicity during the treatment and promotes the wound healing in vivo.This design has proven to be an effective and antibiotic-free strategy to enable the healing of MRSA-infected wounds. | Zhongqian Qiao Wenjing Zhang Yueming Wu Weinan Jiang Ning Shao Jiayang Xie Guixue Xia Qimeng Chen Zhefeng Liu Jingcheng Zou Jiawei Gu Shifang Luan Haodong Lin Runhui Liu | 2023 | Science China Chemistry2023，66，6： | 1 |
