| 1 | A novel artemisinin derivative, 3-(12-β-artemisininoxy) phenoxyl succinic acid (SM735), mediates immunosuppressive effects in vitro and in vivo显示文摘Aim: To study the immunosuppressive activity of SM735 {[3-(12-β-artemisininoxy)] phenoxyl succinic acid}, a synthetic artemisinin derivative with nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug structure, with the aim of finding potential immunosuppressive agents. Methods: Concanavalin A (ConA), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR), were used to induce the proliferation of splenocytes, and [~3H]-thymidine incorporation was used to evaluate the proliferation of splenocytes. Cytokine production was promoted with ConA, LPS, or PMA plus ionomycin, and was detected with the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB) and sheep red blood cells (SRBC) were used to induce delayed-type hypersensitivity and quantitative hemolysis of SRBC (QHS) mouse models, as criteria for the evaluation of in vivo immune activity. Results: SM735 strongly inhibited the proliferation of splenocytes induced by ConA, LPS, or MLR, withIC_(50)) values of 0.33 μmol/L, 0.27 μmol/L, and 0.51 μmol/L, respectively. When compared with a CC_(50) value of 53.1 μmol/L, SM735 had a favorable safety range. SM735 dose-dependently inhibited proinflammatory cytokine production [including interleukins (IL)-12, interferon (IFN)-γ and IL-6] induced by LPS or PMA plus ionomycin. Upon ConA stimulation, SM735 suppressed IFN-γ in a dose-dependent manner, but did not affect IL-2 secretion. SM735 also strongly suppressed both T-cell-mediated delayed-type hypersensitivity (DTH) and B-cell-mediated QHS reactions. Conclusion: SM735 had strong immunosuppressive activity in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a potential role for SM735 as an immunosuppressive agent, and established the groundwork for further research on SM735. | Wen-liang ZHOU Jin-ming WU Qing-li WU Jun-xia WANG Yu ZHOU Ru ZHOU Pei-lan HE Xiao-yu LI Yi-fu YANG Yu ZHANG Ying LI Jian-ping ZUO | 2005 | Acta Pharmacologica Sinica2005,26,11: | 25 |
| 2 | Grape Seed Proanthocyanidin Extract Alleviates Arsenic-induced Oxidative Reproductive Toxicity in Male Mice显示文摘Objective To determine the ability of grape seed proanthocyanidin extract(GSPE) in alleviating arsenic-induced reproductive toxicity. Methods Sixty male Kunming mice received the following treatments by gavage: normal saline solution(control); arsenic trioxide(ATO; 4 mg/kg); GSPE(400 mg/kg); ATO+GSPE(100 mg/kg); ATO+GSPE(200 mg/kg) and ATO+GSPE(400 mg/kg). Thereafter, the mice were sacrificed and weighed, and the testis was examined for pathological changes. Nuclear factor(erythroid-derived 2)-like 2(Nrf2), heme oxygenase 1(HO1), glutathione S-transferase(GST), NAD(P)H dehydrogenase, and quinone 1(NQO1) expression in the testis was detected by real-time PCR. Superoxide dismutase(SOD), glutathione(GSH), total antioxidative capability(T-AOC), malondialdehyde(MDA), 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine(8-OHd G), and reproductive indexes were analyzed. Results ATO-treated mice showed a significantly decreased sperm count and testis somatic index and activity levels of SOD, GSH, and T-AOC than control group. Compared to the ATO-treated group, ATO +GSPE group showed recovery of the measured parameters. Mice treated with ATO+high-dose GSPE showed the highest level of m RNA expression of Nrf2, HO, NQO1, and GST. Conclusion GSPE alleviates oxidative stress damage in mouse testis by activating Nrf2 signaling, thus counteracting arsenic-induced reproductive toxicity. | LI Shu Gang DING Yu Song NIU Qiang XU Shang Zhi PANG Li Juan MA Ru Lin JING Ming Xia FENG Gang Ling LIU Jia Ming GUO Shu Xia | 2015 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2015,28,4: | 14 |
| 3 | The Predictive Value of Baseline HBs Ag Level and Early Response for HBs Ag Loss in Patients with HBe Ag-positive Chronic Hepatitis B during Pegylated Interferon Alpha-2a Treatment显示文摘Objective To explore the predictive value of baseline HBsAg level and early response for HBsAg loss in patients with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B during pegylated interferon alpha-2a treatment. Methods A total of 121 patients with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B who achieved HBsAg loss were enrolled; all patients were treated with PEG-IFNα-2a 180 μg/week. Serum HBV DNA and serological indicators(HBsAg, anti-HBs, HBeAg, and anti-HBe) were determined before and every 3 months during treatment. Results The median treatment time for HBsAg loss was 84 weeks(7-273 weeks), and 74.38%(90 cases) of the patients needed extended treatment(> 48 weeks). The correlation between baseline HBsAg levels and the treatment time of HBsAg loss was significant(B = 14.465, t = 2.342, P = 0.021). Baseline HBsAg levels together with the decline range of HBsAg at 24 weeks significantly correlated with the treatment time of HBsAg loss(B = 29.862, t = 4.890, P = 0.000 and B = 27.993, t = 27.993, P = 0.005). Conclusion Baseline HBsAg levels and extended therapy are critical steps toward HBsAg loss. Baseline HBsAg levels together with early response determined the treatment time of HBsAg loss in patients with HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B during pegylated interferon alpha-2a treatment. | LI Ming Hui ZHANG Lu QU Xiao Jing LU Yao SHEN Ge LI Zhen Zhen WU Shu Ling LIU Ru Yu CHANG Min HU Lei Ping HUA Wen Hao SONG Shu Jing WAN Gang XIE Yao | 2017 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2017,30,3: | 14 |

| 5 | Spatial–temporal distribution and potential ecological risk assessment of nonylphenol and octylphenol in riverine outlets of Pearl River Delta, China显示文摘The aquatic environments of the Pearl River Delta in Southern China are subjected to contamination with various industrial chemicals from local industries. In this paper, the occurrence, seasonal variation and spatial distribution of alkylphenol octylphenol(OP) and nonylphenol(NP) in river surface water and sediments in the runoff outlets of the Pearl River Delta were investigated. NP and OP were detected in all water and sediment samples and their mean concentrations in surface water during the dry season ranged from 810 to 3366 ng/L and85.5 to 581 ng/L, respectively, and those in sediments ranged from 14.2 to 95.2 ng/g dw and 0.4to 3.0 ng/g dw, respectively. In surface water, much higher concentrations were detected in the dry season than those in the wet season. In sediments, the concentrations in the dry season were also mostly higher. High concentrations of NP and OP were found in Humen outlet, likely due to high levels of domestic and industrial wastewater discharges. An ecological risk assessment with the use of hazard quotient(HQ) was also carried out and the HQ values ranged from 3.6 × 10-5to 35 and 64% of samples gave a HQ > 1, indicating that the current levels of NP and OP pose a significant risk to the relevant aquatic organisms in the region. | Ru Chen Pinghe Yin Ling Zhao Qiming Yu Aihua Hong Shunshan Duan | 2014 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2014,26,11: | 11 |
| 6 | Evaluating efficacy of screening for upper gastrointestinal cancer in China:a study protocol for a randomized controlled trial显示文摘Objective: To evaluate the efficacy and feasibility of screening procedure for upper gastrointestinal cancer in both high-risk and non-high-risk areas in China.Setting: Seven cities/counties, representing three economical-geographical regions(Eastern, Central and Western) in China, were selected as screening centers: three in high-risk areas and four in non-high-risk areas.Participants: Villages/communities in these seven centers regarded as clusters were randomly assigned to either intervention group(screening by endoscopic examination) or control group(with normal community care) in a 1:1ratio stratified by each center. Eligible participants are local residents aged 40–69 years in the selected villages/communities with no history of cancer or endoscopic examination in the latest 3 years who are mentally and physically competent. Those who are not willing to take endoscopic examination or are unwilling to sign the consent form are excluded from the study. Totally 140,000 participants will be enrolled.Interventions: In high-risk areas of upper gastrointestinal cancer, all subjects in screening group will be screened by endoscopy. In non-high-risk areas, 30% of the subjects in screening group, identified through a survey,will be screened by endoscopy.Primary and secondary outcome measures: The primary outcome is the mortality caused by upper gastrointestinal cancer. The secondary outcomes include detection rate, incidence rate, survival rate, and clinical stage distribution. Additional data on quality of life and cost-effectiveness will also be collected to answer important questions regarding screening effects.Conclusions: Screening strategy evaluated in those areas with positive findings may be promoted nationally and applied to the majority of Chinese people. On the other hand, negative findings will provide scientific evidence for abandoning a test and shifting resources elsewhere.Trial registration: The study has been registered with the Protocol Registration System in Chinese Clinical Trial Registry. | wanqing chen hongmei zeng ru chen ruyi xia zhixun yang changfa xia rongshou zheng wenqiang wei guihua zhuang xueqin yu jie he | 2017 | Chinese Journal of Cancer Research2017,29,4: | 11 |
| 7 | Effects of exergaming on motor skill competence,perceived competence,and physical activity in preschool children显示文摘Background: Few school settings offer opportunities for preschool children to engage in structured physical activity, and only a few studies have been conducted examining exergaming's effectiveness on health outcomes in this age group. This study's purpose, therefore, was to examine a school-based exergaming intervention's effect on preschool children's perceived competence(PC), motor skill competence(MSC), and physical activity versus usual care(recess), as well as to examine gender differences for these outcomes.Methods: A total of 65 preschool children from 2 underserved urban schools were assigned to 1 of 2 conditions, with the school as the experimental unit:(1) usual care recess group(8 weeks of 100 min of recess/week(5 days £ 20 min)) and(2) exergaming intervention group(8 weeks of100 min of exergaming/week(5 days £ 20 min) at school). All children underwent identical assessments of PC, MSC, and moderate-to-vigorous physical activity(MVPA) at baseline and at the end of the 8 th week.Results: A significant Group £ Time effect was observed for MVPA, F(1, 52) = 4.37, p = 0.04, h2 p= 0.04, but not for PC, F(1, 52) = 0.83, p = 0.37,h2 p= 0.02, or MSC, F(1, 52) = 0.02, p = 0.88, h2 p= 0.00. Specifically, the intervention children displayed significantly greater increased MVPA after8 weeks than the comparison children. Additionally, there was a significant time effect for MSC, F(1, 52) = 15.61, p < 0.01, h2 p= 0.23, and gender effect for MVPA, F(1, 52) = 5.06, p = 0.02, h2 p= 0.09. Although all preschoolers' MSC improved across time, boys demonstrated greater MVPA than girls at both time points.Conclusion: Exergaming showed a positive effect in promoting preschool children's MVPA at school and has the potential to enhance PC and MSC. More research with larger sample sizes and longer study durations are warranted. | Zan Gao Nan Zeng Zachary C.Pope Ru Wang Fang Yu | 2019 | Journal of Sport and Health Science2019,8,2: | 10 |
| 8 | Ab initio study of the effects of Ag/Mn doping on the electronic structure of LiFePO_4显示文摘Based on density functional theory (DFT) of the first-principle for the cathode materials of lithium ion battery, the electronic structures of Li(Fe1-xMex)PO4 (Me = Ag/Mn, x = 0―0.40) are calculated by plane wave pseudo-potential method using Cambridge serial total energy package (CASTEP) program. The calculated results show that the Fermi level of mixed atoms Fe1-xAgx moves into its conduction bands (CBs) due to the Ag doping. The Li(Fe1-xAgx)PO4 system displays the periodic direct semiconductor characteristic with the increase of Ag-doped concentration. However, for Fe1-xMnx mixed atoms, the Fermi level is pined at the bottom of conduction bands (CBs), which is ascribed to the interaction be-tween Mn(3d) electrons and Fe(4s) electrons. The intensity of the partial density of states (PDOS) near the bottom of CBs becomes stronger with the increase of Mn-doped concentration. The Fermi energy of the Li(Fe1-xMnx)PO4 reaches maximum at x = 0.25, which is consistent with the experimental value of x = 0.20. The whole conduction property of Mn-doped LiFePO4 is superior to that of Ag-doped LiFePO4 cathode material, but the structural stability is reverse. | HOU XianHua HU SheJun LI WeiShan ZHAO LingZhi RU Qiang YU HongWer HUANG ZhaoWen | 2008 | Chinese Science Bulletin2008,53,11: | 9 |
| 9 | Protective effects of a novel drug RC28-E blocking both VEGF and FGF2 on early diabetic rat retina显示文摘AIM: To investigate protective effects of a novel recombinant decoy receptor drug RC28-E on retinal damage in early diabetic rats.METHODS: The streptozotocin(STZ)-induced diabetic rats were randomly divided into 6 groups: diabetes mellitus(DM) group(saline, 3 μL/eye); RC28-E at low(0.33 μg/μL, 3 μL), medium(1 μg/μL, 3 μL), and high(3 μg/μL,3 μL) dose groups; vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF) Trap group(1 μg/μL, 3 μL); fibroblast growth factor(FGF) Trap group(1 μg/μL, 3 μL). Normal control group was included. At week 1 and 4 following diabetic induction,the rats were intravitreally injected with the corresponding solutions. At week 6 following the induction, apoptosis in retinal vessels was detected by TUNEL staining.Glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP) expression was examined by immunofluorescence. Blood-retinal barrier(BRB) breakdown was assessed by Evans blue assay.Ultrastructural changes in choroidal and retinal vessels were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy(TEM).Content of VEGF and FGF proteins in retina was measured by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). The retinal expression of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1(ICAM-1), tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α), VEGF and FGF genes was examined by quantitative polymerase chain reaction(qPCR).RESULTS: TUNEL staining showed that the aberrantly increased apoptotic cells death in diabetic retinal vascular network was significantly reduced by treatments of medium and high dose RC28-E, VEGF Trap, and FGF Trap(all P<0.05), the effects of medium and high dose RC28-E or FGF Trap were greater than VEGF Trap(P<0.01). GFAP staining suggested that reactive gliosis was substantially inhibited in all RC28-E and VEGF Trap groups, but the inhibition in FGF Trap group was not as prominent.Evans blue assay demonstrated that only high dose RC28-E could significantly reduce vascular leakage in early diabetic retina(P<0.01). TEM revealed that the ultrastructures in choroidal and retinal vessels were damaged in early diabetic retina, which was ameliorated to differential extents by each drug. The expression of VEGF and FGF2 proteins was significantly upregulated in early diabetic retina, and normalized by RC28-E at all dosages and by the corresponding Traps. The upregulation of ICAM-1 and TNF-α in diabetic retina was substantially suppressed by RC28-E and positive control drugs.CONCLUSION: Dual blockade of VEGF and FGF2 by RC28-E generates remarkable protective effects, including anti-apoptosis, anti-gliosis, anti-leakage, and improving ultrastructures and proinflammatory microenvironment,in early diabetic retina, thereby supporting further development of RC28-E into a novel and effective drug to diabetic retinopathy(DR). | Qian-Hui Yang Yan Zhang Jing Jiang Mian-Mian Wu Qian Han Qi-Yu Bo Guang-Wei Yu Yu-Sha Ru Xun Liu Min Huang Ling Wang Xiao-Min Zhang Jian-Min Fang Xiao-Rong Li | 2018 | International Journal of Ophthalmology(English edition)2018,11,6: | 9 |
| 10 | Regional path moving horizon tracking controller design for autonomous ground vehicles显示文摘A novel regional path tracking description is presented in this manuscript, and the moving horizon control method that is model predictive control(MPC) is proposed to discuss the regional path tracking issue which could avoid colliding road boundary when tracking a more complex road effectively. The feasible region for autonomous ground vehicles(AGVs) running is determined first according to the detected road boundaries.Then, in order to keep the actual trajectory of AGVs in the region and satisfy the safety requirements, MPC method is employed to design the path tracking controller considering actuator and road boundary constraints.In order to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, experiments based on Hongqi AGV HQ430 are carried out, and the results illustrate that the presented method could be successfully applied to Hongqi AGV vehicle HQ 430. | Hongyan GUO Feng LIU Ru YU Zhenping SUN Hong CHEN | 2017 | Science China(Information Sciences)2017,60,1: | 9 |
| 11 | Challenges of 22 nm and beyond CMOS technology显示文摘It is predicted that CMOS technology will probably enter into 22 nm node around 2012.

| 12 | Synthesis of Li_4Ti_5O_(12) nanostructural anode materials with high charge–discharge capability显示文摘This study demonstrates a facile and efficient hydrothermal method to prepare spindle titanate(Li4Ti5O12 denoted as LTO)and/or carbon-LTO nanocomposites(CLTO),in which the LTO or C-LTO microspheres have diameters of a few micrometers,composed of numerous nanosheets with thickness of*30 nm and edge length of hundreds of nanometers.The morphology and size control of these nanoparticles could be achieved by varying experimental parameters including concentration of titanium butoxide,lithium hydroxide,and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide,as well as reaction temperature and time.These micro-nanostructures were characterized by several advanced techniques,such as transmission electron microscopy,scanning electron microscopy,X-ray diffraction,energy dispersive spectroscopic analysis,surface area,and electrochemical measurements.The LTO and C-LTO microstructures were examined in the charge–discharge capacity at a rate of 50 C,as well as the stability after 100 cycles at a rate of 10 C.The excellent capability may be attributed to good conductivity,large surface area,and stable assembly structure of such micro-nanostructures,which could be explored as a promising anode material for lithium-ion batteries. | Ru Wen Jeffrey Yue Zifeng Ma Wuming Chen Xuchuan Jiang Aibing Yu | 2014 | Chinese Science Bulletin2014,59,18: | 8 |
| 13 | Hydrodynamics of a Newly China-Made Jiuling Bileaflet Heart Valve Prostheses显示文摘Jiuling bileaflet prosthetic heart valve is manufactured in compliance with the national standard of P.R.C. GB12279 90. This mechanical heart valve substitute is constructed entirely of solid low temperature pyrolytic carbon. There is no graphite substrate within the leaflets or orifice. This prosthesis presents with satisfactory histocompatibility and induces little hemocoagulation around it. Objective: This study aimed to assess the hydrodynamic function of the newly China made Jiuling bileaflet heart valve prostheses. Methods: Jiuling valve has been tested in a pulsatile flow simulator in the aortic position. The testing condition was set at the pulsatile frequency of 55, 75, and 100 beats/min and a constant cardiac output of 4 L/min. The mean pressure differences, leakage volumes and closing volumes across each valve, and the effective orifice areas have been analyzed. Results: The Jiuling heart valves prosthesis had the lowest pressure difference at any given tissue annulus diameter. The mean pressure difference of all the Jiuling valves decreases with increasing the tissue annulus diameter or pulse frequency, and is in the range of below 10 mmHg. CarboMedics (CarboMedics, Inc., Austin, Tex.) is similar to that of the 21 mm and 23 mm Jiuling heart valves at the given pulse rate under 4 L/min. C L tilting disc valve (Lanzhou CarboMedics Inc., China) is similar to that of the 23 mm Jiuling heart valve. The effective orifice area of the Jiuling mechanical valve increases with increasing the tissue annulus diameter or pulse frequency. CarboMedics and C L tilting disc valve is similar to that of the 21 mm and 23 mm Jiuling heart valves. The Closing volume of the Jiuling prosthetic cardiac valves increases with increasing the tissue annulus diameter, but decreases with increasing the pulse frequency, and is in the range of below 11% (normalized by stroke volume). CarboMedics is below 16.5% of stroke volume; and C L tilting disc valve is below 7.5%. The leakage volume of the Jiuling prosthetic cardiac valves increases with increasing the tissue annulus diameter, but decreases with increasing the pulse frequency, and are in the range of below 28.9% (normalized by stroke volume). The leakage volume of CarboMedics is higher than that of the same sized 25 mm Jiuling valve, and the C L tilting disc valve is also higher than that of Jiuling valve at 4 L/min. Conclusion: For a given tissue diameter, the Jiuling valve showed significantly better hemodynamic characteristics. The material used in the construction is biocompatible, durable, and thromboresistant. The design permits light weight, low profile, and high ratio of flow area to tissue annulus diameter. | CHU Yin ping 1,CHEN Ru kun 2,FAN Yu bo 3 , PU Fang 31 Department of Thoracic & Cardiovascular Surgery Second Hospital Affiliated Shanxi Medical University, Taiyuan 030001,China 2 Second Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University Medical | 2000 | Chinese Journal of Biomedical Engineering(English Edition)2000,9,4: | 8 |
| 14 | Natural continuous influent nitrifier immigration effects on nitrification and the microbial community of activated sludge systems显示文摘Two sequencing batch reactors(SBRs) were operated for 100 days under aerobic conditions,with one being fed with unsterilized municipal wastewater(USBR), and the other fed with sterilized municipal wastewater(SSBR). Respirometric assays and fluorescence in situ hybridization(FISH) results show that active nitrifiers were present in the unsterilized influent municipal wastewater. The maximum ammonia utilization rate(AUR) and nitrite utilization rate(NUR) of the unsterilized influent were 0.32 ± 0.12 mg NH4+-N/(L·hr) and0.71 ± 0.18 mg NO2--N/(L·hr). Based on the maximum utilization rates, the estimated seeding intensity for the ammonia oxidizing bacteria(AOB) and nitrite oxidizing bacteria(NOB) of the USBR was 0.08 g AOB/(g AOB·day) and 0.20 g NOB/(g NOB·day) respectively. The fraction of nitrifiers/total bacteria in the influent was 5.35% ± 2.1%, the dominant AOB was Nitrosomonas spp., Nitrosococcus mobilis hybridizated with Nsm156, and the dominant NOB was Nitrospira hybridizated with Ntspa662. The influent nitrifiers potentially seeded the activated sludge of the bioreactor and hence demonstrated a mitigation of the acclimatization times and instability during start-up and early operation. The AUR and NUR in the USBR was 15% and 13% higher than the SSBR respectively during the stable stage, FISH results showed that nitrifiers population especially the Nitrospira in the USBR was higher than that in the SSBR. These results indicate that the natural continuous immigration of nitrifiers from municipal influent streams may have some repercussions on the modeling and design of bioreactors. | Lifang Yu Ren Li Robert Delatolla Ru Zhang Xiuling Yang Dangcong Peng | 2018 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2018,30,12: | 7 |

| 17 | Microwave assisted atmospheric acid leaching of nickel from laterite ore显示文摘The recovery of nickel from laterite ore with sulphuric acid under the effect of microwave irradiation was studied.The experimental results indicated that the extraction rate of nickel was influenced by reaction time,sulphuric acid concentration,and temperature,especially by microwave power.The results obtained from the experiments of orthogonal arrays showed that the optimum conditions of sulphuric acid concentration,reaction time,microwave power,and temperature were 25 vol.%,1.5 h,600 W,and 90°C,respectively.Under the optimal conditions,the nickel recovery could reach approximately 90.8%,which was higher than that obtained by conventional water bath heating.Kinetic experiments showed that the leaching of nickel in a sulphuric acid medium was controlled by chemical reaction occurring on the surface of laterite ore.The apparent activation energy was 38.9 kJ/mol.Microwave heating technology is efficient,clean,and easy to control and facilitate continuous processing of materials. | CHE Xiaokui SU Xiuzhu CHI Ru'an YU Junxia | 2010 | Rare Metals2010,29,3: | 7 |
| 18 | DEK43 is a P-type pentatricopeptide repeat(PPR)protein responsible for the Cis-splicing of nad4 in maize mitochondria显示文摘Mitochondria, the main energy transducers in plant cells, require the proper assembly of respiratory chain complexes Ⅰ–Ⅴ for their function. The NADH dehydrogenase4(nad4) gene encodes mitochondrial respiratory chain complex Ⅰ subunit Ⅳ, but the mechanism underlying nad4 transcript splicing is unclear. Here, we report that the P-type pentatricopeptide repeat(PPR) protein DEFECTIVE KERNEL 43(DEK43) is responsible for cis-splicing of the nad4 transcript in maize. We demonstrate that DEK43 localizes to both the nucleus and mitochondria. The mutation of Dek43 resulted in embryo-lethal and light-colored defective kernels. Among the 22 mitochondrial group Ⅱ introns, the splicing efficiency of nad4 introns 1 and 3 was reduced by up to 50% compared to the wild type. The levels of complex Ⅰ and supercomplex Ⅰ+Ⅲ2 were also reduced in dek43. Furthermore, in-gel NADH dehydrogenase assays indicated that the activities of these complexes were significantly reduced in dek43. Further, the mitochondrial ultrastructure was altered in the mutant. Together, our findings indicate that DEK43, a dual-localized PPR protein,plays an important role in maintaining mitochondrial function and maize kernel development. | Ru Chang Ren Li Li Wang Lin Zhang Ya Jie Zhao Jia Wen Wu Yi Ming Wei Xian Sheng Zhang Xiang Yu Zhao | 2020 | Journal of Integrative Plant Biology2020,62,3: | 6 |
| 19 | The Association of Socioeconomic Status with the Burden of Cataract-related Blindness and the Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation Exposure: An Ecological Study显示文摘Objective To assess the association of socioeconomic status with the burden of cataract blindness in terms of year lived with disability(YLD) rates and to determine whether ultraviolet radiation(UVR) levels modify the effect of socioeconomic status on this health burden.Methods National and subnational age-standardized YLD rates associated with cataract-related blindness were derived from the Global Burden of Disease(GBD) study 2017. The human development index(HDI) from the Human Development Report was used as a measure of socioeconomic status.Estimated ground-level UVR exposure was obtained from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument(OMI)dataset of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration(NASA).Results Across 185 countries, socioeconomic status was inversely associated with the burden of cataract blindness. Countries with a very high HDI had an 84% lower age-standardized YLD rate [95%confidence interval(CI): 60%–93%, P < 0.001] than countries with a low HDI;for high-HDI countries, the proportion was 76%(95% CI: 53%–88%, P < 0.001), and for medium-HDI countries, the proportion was48%(95% CI: 15%–68%, P = 0.010;P for trend < 0.001). The interaction analysis showed that UVR exposure played an interactive role in the association between socioeconomic status and cataract blindness burden(P value for interaction = 0.047).Conclusion Long-term high-UVR exposure amplifies the association of poor socioeconomic status with the burden of cataract-related blindness. The findings emphasize the need for strengthening UVR exposure protection interventions in developing countries with high-UVR exposure. | DENG Yan YANG Dan YU Jia Ming XU Jing Xian HUA Hui CHEN Ren Tong WANG Nan OU Feng Rong LIU Ru Xi WU Bo LIU Yang | 2021 | Biomedical and Environmental Sciences2021,34,2: | 6 |
| 20 | Effect of Chain Configuration on Thermal Conductivity of Polyethylene-A Molecular Dynamic Simulation Study显示文摘Stretched polyethylene(PE)fibers are found to have super high thermal conductivity,while the bulk of polyethylene is usually thermal insulating even for those with high crystalline degree.A molecular dynamic simulation is deliberately carried out to examine the relationship between chain configuration and thermal conductivity of polyethylene.In this simulation study,independent and interacting PE chains being stretched are compared with the aim to find out the effect of stretching on thermal conductivity of PE.Various crystallization conditions for PE bulk are considered.It is found that heat transports predominately along the covalent chain rather than across chains in PE crystals.Our simulation study helps to understand experimental findings on thermal conductivity of PE at different states.W e also predict that amorphous PE may be super thermally conductive if chains are strictly stretched along heat flux. | Xiang Zhang Yu Wang Ru Xi Bin Wu Peng Chen Jia Sheng Qian Hao-Jun Liang | 2020 | Chinese Journal of Polymer Science2020,38,12: | 6 |
