Published: March 2015

White organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) hold great promise for applications in displays and lighting due to high efficiency and superior white color balance. However, further improvement in efficiency remains a continuous and urgent demand due to limited energy flow extraction. A powerful method for drastically releasing the trapped energy flow in conventional white OLEDs is demonstrated by implementing unique quasi‐periodic subwavelength nanofunnel arrays (NFAs) via soft nanoimprinting lithography, which is ideal for enhancing light extraction without any spectral distortion or angular dependence. The resulting efficiency is over 2 times that of a conventional OLED used as a comparison. The external quantum efficiency and power efficiency are raised to 32.4% and 56.9 lm W−1, respectively. Besides, the substantial increase in efficiency over a broad bandwidth with angular color stability, the experimental proofs show that the NFA‐based extraction structure affords the enticing capacity against scrubbing and the self‐cleaning feature, which are critical to the commercial viability in practical applications.

Authors: Li Weipeng , Zhu Yunhuang , Duan Yingqian , Zhang Muliang , Zhu Chengjian
Published: March 2015

A visible‐light photoredox‐catalyzed reaction of tetrahydroisoquinolines with β‐fluorinated gem‐diols results in the formation of C1‐monofluoromethylated tetrahydroisoquinolines via C(sp3)H bond activation. This protocol provides a new method to introduce a CF group with stable, easily‐prepared monofluorinated gem‐diol as CF source. A mechanistic investigation is presented based on control experiments.

Generalized joint hypermobility, joint hypermobility syndrome and Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome, hypermobility type
Authors: Castori Marco , Colombi Marina
Published: March 2015

This issue of the American Journal of Medical Genetics Seminar Series Part C is dedicated to generalized joint hypermobility (gJHM), joint hypermobility syndrome (JHS), and Ehlers–Danlos syndrome, hypermobility type (EDS‐HT). gJHM is the best known clinical manifestation of inherited defects of the connective tissue. On the other side, JHS and EDS‐HT are actually considered one and the same from a clinical perspective by most practitioners and researchers (i.e., JHS/EDS‐HT), and their molecular basis remains unknown. For decades, “non‐syndromic” gJHM and JHS/EDS‐HT have been thought to be simple clinical curiosities or an asset for the “affected” individual. In recent years, the attention on these partially overlapping phenotypes has increased, as they are now recognized risk factors for a series of non‐communicable diseases and long‐term disabilities. This series consists of 10 papers focused on three main topics, namely (i) assessment and differential diagnosis of children and adults with gJHM, (ii) systematic presentation of selected key non‐articular manifestations of JHS/EDS‐HT and actual perception of physiotherapy as the best therapeutic resource for this condition, and (iii) exploration of the available knowledge relating “congenital laxity of tissues” to various dysfunctions of the nervous system during development and adulthood. The contributors hope that this collection raises attention to this fascinating field of knowledge, which seems to have ramifications in virtually all medical disciplines. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
Staphylococcus aureus impairs the airway epithelial barrier in vitro
Authors: Malik Zacki , Roscioli Eugene , Murphy Jae , Ou Judy , Bassiouni Ahmed , Wormald Peter‐John , Vreugde Sarah
Published: March 2015

Background

Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) is a cluster of disorders that result in sinonasal mucosal inflammation. Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) is associated with severe and recalcitrant CRS. The purpose of our study was to investigate the effect of S. aureus on respiratory epithelial barrier structure and function.

Methods

Conditioned media from S. aureus reference strains (American Type Culture Collection [ATCC] 13565, 14458, and 25923) was applied to air‐liquid interface (ALI) cultures of primary human nasal epithelial cells (HNECs) and transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) was measured to assess cell‐to‐cell integrity. Electron microscopy was used to gauge the ciliated area and tight junctions (TJs). Additionally, the expression of the TJ protein zona occludens‐1 (ZO‐1) was examined via immunofluorescence. Statistical analysis was performed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) with pairwise Bonferroni‐adjusted t tests.

Results

Secreted products applied to ALI cultures from S. aureus strain 13565 caused a concentration‐dependent decline in electrical impedance compared to controls and reference strains 14458 and 25923 (p < 0.001). Electron microscopy showed a distinct separation between adjacent cells apically, in the region of TJs. The ciliated area was not affected; however, ZO‐1 expression became discontinuous in HNECs exposed to the 13565 strain's conditioned media.

Conclusion

Conditioned media of the S. aureus strain 13565 damages the airway epithelium by disrupting the TJs between primary HNECs grown at an ALI. These findings suggest that strain‐specific S. aureus–secreted product(s) compromise epithelial barrier function, which may constitute 1 of the roles played by S. aureus in the pathophysiology of recalcitrant CRS. Further research is required to uncover the relevant molecular mechanisms.
Chirale Sulfoxidliganden für die asymmetrische Katalyse
Authors: Trost Barry M. , Rao Meera
Published: March 2015

Stickstoff‐, Sauerstoff‐ und Phosphorliganden mit chiralen Grundgerüsten sind die historischen Arbeitspferde für asymmetrische übergangsmetallkatalysierte Reaktionen. Dagegen wurden am Schwefelatom chirale Sulfoxide überwiegend als chirale Auxiliare für diastereoselektive Reaktionen verwendet. Obwohl diese Verbindungen gegenüber den üblichen Ligandengerüsten mehrere deutliche Vorteile bieten, z. B. die Nähe der chiralen Information zum Metallzentrum und die Fähigkeit, zwischen S‐ und O‐Koordinierung zu wechseln, entwickelten sie sich erst in jüngster Zeit zu einer vielseitigen Klasse chiraler Liganden. In diesem Aufsatz wird die Geschichte der Entwicklung chiraler Sulfoxidliganden für die asymmetrische Katalyse eingehend besprochen. Darüber hinaus geben wir kurze Beschreibungen der Metall‐Sulfoxid‐Bindung und der Synthesestrategien für enantiomerenreine Sulfoxide. Abschließend werden Einblicke in die künftige Entwicklung dieser nur wenig genutzten Ligandenklasse gegeben.
Self‐Discriminating Termination of Chiral Supramolecular Polymerization: Tuning the Length of Nanofibers
Authors: Kumar Jatish , Tsumatori Hiroyuki , Yuasa Junpei , Kawai Tsuyoshi , Nakashima Takuya
Published: March 2015

Directing the supramolecular polymerization towards a preferred type of organization is extremely important in the design of functional soft materials. Proposed herein is a simple methodology to tune the length and optical chirality of supramolecular polymers formed from a chiral bichromophoric binaphthalene by the control of enantiomeric excess (ee). The enantiopure compound gave thin fibers longer than a few microns, while the racemic mixture favored the formation of nanoparticles. The thermodynamic study unveils that the heterochiral assembly gets preference over the homochiral assembly. The stronger heterochiral binding over homochiral one terminated the elongation of fibrous assembly, thus leading to a control over the length of fibers in the nonracemic mixtures. The supramolecular polymerization driven by π–π interactions highlights the effect of the geometry of a twisted π‐core on this self‐sorting assembly.
Z‐Selective Cross Metathesis with Ruthenium Catalysts: Synthetic Applications and Mechanistic Implications
Authors: Herbert Myles B. , Grubbs Robert H.
Published: March 2015

Olefin cross metathesis is a particularly powerful transformation that has been exploited extensively for the formation of complex products. Until recently, however, constructing Z‐olefins using this methodology was not possible. With the discovery and development of three families of ruthenium‐based Z‐selective catalysts, the formation of Z‐olefins using metathesis is now not only possible but becoming increasingly prevalent in the literature. In particular, ruthenium complexes containing cyclometalated NHC architectures developed in our group have been shown to catalyze various cross metathesis reactions with high activity and, in most cases, near perfect selectivity for the Z‐isomer. The types of cross metathesis reactions investigated thus far are presented here and explored in depth.

Besides the good solubility, the compound shows a high tendency to crystallize. Two polymorphs from dichlorobenzene and chloroform are described. In the polymorph from chloroform, half of the molecules are strongly bent out of the π‐plane by 26.4°.
Reversible 1,1‐Hydroboration: Boryl Insertion into a CN Bond and Competitive Elimination of HBR2 or RH
Authors: Yang Deng‐Tao , Mellerup Soren K. , Wang Xiang , Lu Jia‐Sheng , Wang Suning
Published: March 2015

Boranes with the general formula of HBR2 have been found to undergo a facile 1,1‐hydroboration reaction with pyrido[1,2‐a]isoindole (A), resulting in insertion of a BR2 unit into a CN bond and the formation of a variety of BN heterocycles. Investigation on the thermal reactivity of the BN heterocycles revealed that these molecules have two distinct and competitive thermal elimination pathways: HBR2 elimination (or retro‐hydroboration) versus RH elimination, depending on the R group on the B atom and the chelate backbone. Mechanistic aspects of these highly unusual reactions have been established from both experimental and computational evidence. Adduct formation between HBR2 and A was found to be the key intermediate in 1,1‐hydroboration of A.
Beyond Acid Strength in Zeolites: Soft Framework Counteranions for Stabilization of Carbocations on Zeolites and Its Implication in Organic Synthesis
Authors: Cabrero‐Antonino Jose R. , Leyva‐Pérez Antonio , Corma Avelino
Published: March 2015

The generation of a carbocation with an acid depends not only on the acid strength but also on the ability of the counteranion to stabilize the positive charge left behind. Here we report that despite their relatively weak acidity, zeolites are able to generate and stabilize medium‐size (molecular weight ≈300 Da) delocalized carbocations on their surface under mild reaction conditions, as it can be done by strong Brønsted or Lewis acids in solution. The zeolite thus acts as a soft macroanion, prolonging the lifetime of the carbocation sufficiently to perform multifunctionalization reactions with amides, thioamides, and phenols, with high yield and selectivity. Biological studies show that some of the products obtained here present significant inhibition activity against colon cancer cells, illustrating the new possibilities of zeolites to prepare complex organic molecules.
Identifying key habitats for the conservation of Chilean dolphins in the fjords of southern Chile
Authors: Viddi Francisco A. , Harcourt Robert G. , Hucke‐Gaete Rodrigo
Published: March 2015

In the face of environmental degradation, animals with limited plasticity are likely to be the most vulnerable.

Habitat selection by the threatened, endemic Chilean dolphin (Cephalorhynchus eutropia) was investigated in the northern Patagonian fjords, an area of extraordinary biological productivity.

Generalized additive models were undertaken to assess the ecological determinants of Chilean dolphin spatial distribution and habitat selection. Data were collected from dedicated fine‐scale marine surveys conducted during the austral summer of 2007, 2008 and 2009

Modelling techniques provide strong support for Chilean dolphins aggregating in distinct hotspots, preferring shallow water, near rivers and in areas where the influence of tidal regime is greater.

The preference for coastal shallow waters and river influenced habitats by Chilean dolphins puts them in direct conflict with a growing aquaculture industry and hydropower projects. The models predict areas of high densities of Chilean dolphins and excluding these areas from new developments would provide clear protection to the habitat most important to this poorly known endemic Chilean species.

The evolution of stakeholders' perceptions of disaster: A model of information flow
Authors: Wei Jiuchang , Wang Fei , Lindell Michael K.
Published: March 2015

This paper proposes a diffusion model to measure the evolution of stakeholders' disaster perceptions by integrating a disaster message model, a stakeholder model, and a stakeholder memory model, which collectively describe the process of information flow. Simulation results show that the rate of forgetting has a significantly negative effect on stakeholders' perceptions and the incremental increase in the number of affected individuals has a positive effect on the maximum level of stakeholders' perceptions, but negative effect on the duration of stakeholders' perceptions. Additionally, a delay effect, a stagnation effect, and a cumulative effect exist in the evolution of stakeholders' perceptions. There is a spike at the beginning of the profile of stakeholders' perceptions in the Damped Exponential Model. An empirical test supports the validity of this model of stakeholders' disaster perceptions.
Social network analysis on a topic‐based navigation guidance system in a public health portal
Authors: Zhang Jin , Zhai Shanshan , Liu Hongxia , Stevenson Jennifer Ann
Published: March 2015

We investigated a topic‐based navigation guidance system in the World Health Organization portal, compared the link connection network and the semantic connection network derived from the guidance system, analyzed the characteristics of the 2 networks from the perspective of the node centrality (in_closeness, out_closeness, betweenness, in_degree, and out_degree), and provided the suggestions to optimize and enhance the topic‐based navigation guidance system. A mixed research method that combines the social network analysis method, clustering analysis method, and inferential analysis methods was used. The clustering analysis results of the link connection network were quite different from those of the semantic connection network. There were significant differences between the link connection network and the semantic network in terms of density and centrality. Inferential analysis results show that there were no strong correlations between the centrality of a node and its topic information characteristics. Suggestions for enhancing the navigation guidance system are discussed in detail. Future research directions, such as application of the same research method presented in this study to other similar public health portals, are also included.
Composite State Feedback of the Finite Frequency H∞ Control for Discrete‐Time Singularly Perturbed Systems
Authors: Xu Jing , Cai Chenxiao , Zou Yun
Published: March 2015

This paper mainly is concerned with the finite frequency H∞ control for the discrete‐time singularly perturbed systems. A state feedback controller is designed to stabilize the whole system and to satisfy the desired design specifications. The generalized Kalman–Yakubovich–Popov (GKYP) lemma is used to convert the related frequency domain inequalities in finite frequency ranges to feasible linear matrix inequalities. Based on the Lyapunov stability method, stable conditions are obtained for discrete‐time singularly perturbed systems. A bounded real lemma then is derived, which characterizes the H∞ norm performance in specific frequency ranges. Furthermore, the approach for the design of a composite state feedback controller is put forward combined with the unique frequency characteristics of singularly perturbed systems. Detailed analysis of the performance achieved by the piecewise composite controller is provided when it is applied to the original system, and the effectiveness and merits of the proposed controller are illustrated with a numerical result.

Published: March 2015

Neuroblastoma (NB) is an embryonic solid tumor derived from precursor cells of the sympathetic nervous system, and accounts for 11% of childhood cancers and around 15% of cancer deaths in children. SUMOylation and deSUMOylation are dynamic mechanisms regulating a spectrum of protein activities. The SUMO proteases (SENP) remove SUMO conjugate from proteins, and their expression is deregulated in diverse cancers. However, nothing is known about the role of SENPs in NBL. In the present study, we found that SENP1 expression was significantly high in metastatic NB tissues compared with primary NB tissues. Overexpression of SENP1 promoted NB cells migration and invasion. Inhibition of SENP1 could significantly suppress NB cell migration and invasion. Moreover, we found that SENP1 could regulate the expression of CDH1, MMP9, and MMP2. In summary, the data presented here indicate a significant role of SENP1 in the regulation of cell migration and invasion in NB and suppress SENP1 expression as promising candidates for novel treatment strategies of NB.

Published: March 2015

Bioprocess engineering is a highly interdisciplinary field of study which is strongly benefited by practical courses where students can actively experience the interconnection between biology, engineering, and physical sciences. This work describes a lab course developed for 2nd year undergraduate students of bioprocess engineering and related disciplines, where students are challenged with a real‐life bioprocess‐engineering application, the production of recombinant protein in a fed‐batch process. The lab course was designed to introduce students to the subject of operating and supervising an experiment in a bioreactor, along with the analysis of collected data and a final critical evaluation of the experiment. To provide visual feedback of the experimental outcome, the organism used during class was Escherichia coli which carried a plasmid to recombinantly produce enhanced green fluorescent protein (eGFP) upon induction. This can easily be visualized in both the bioreactor and samples by using ultraviolet light. The lab course is performed with bioreactors of the simplest design, and is therefore highly flexible, robust and easy to reproduce. As part of this work the implementation and framework, the results, the evaluation and assessment of student learning combined with opinion surveys are presented, which provides a basis for instructors intending to implement a similar lab course at their respective institution. © 2015 by the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 43(3):189–202, 2015.

Published: March 2015

The hydrogen‐evolving photocatalyst [(tbbpy)2Ru(tpphz)Pd(Cl)2]2+ (tbbpy=4,4′‐di‐tert‐butyl‐2,2′‐bipyridine, tpphz=tetrapyrido[3,2‐a:2′,3′‐c:3′′,2′′‐h:2′′′,3′′′‐j]phenazine) shows excitation‐wavelength‐dependent catalytic activity, which has been correlated to the localization of the initial excitation within the coordination sphere. In this contribution the excitation‐wavelength dependence of the early excited‐state relaxation and the occurrence of vibrational coherences are investigated by sub‐20 fs transient absorption spectroscopy and DFT/TDDFT calculations. The comparison with the mononuclear precursor [(tbbpy)2Ru(tpphz)]2+ highlights the influence of the catalytic center on these ultrafast processes. Only in the presence of the second metal center, does the excitation of a 1MLCT state localized on the central part of the tpphz bridge lead to coherent wave‐packet motion in the excited state.

Published: March 2015

Two pillared‐layer metal–organic frameworks (MOFs; PMOF‐55 and NH2‐PMOF‐55) based on 1,2,4‐triazole and terephthalic acid (bdc)/NH2‐bdc ligands were assembled and display framework stabilities, to a certain degree, in both acid/alkaline solutions and toward water. They exhibit high CO2 uptakes and selective CO2/N2 adsorption capacities, with CO2/N2 selectivity in the range of 24–27, as calculated by the ideal adsorbed solution theory method. More remarkably, the site and interactions between the host network and the CO2 molecules were investigated by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, which showed that the main interaction between the CO2 molecules and PMOF‐55 is due to multipoint supramolecular interactions of CH⋅⋅⋅O, C⋅⋅⋅O, and O⋅⋅⋅O. Amino functional groups were shown to enhance the CO2 adsorption and identified as strong adsorption sites for CO2 by X‐ray crystallography.

The synthesis of a series of nitroxy‐ and azido‐functionalized compounds, based on 4‐amino‐3,5‐di(hydroxymethyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole, for possible use as an energetic plasticizers is described. All compounds were fully characterized. Two of them were further confirmed by X‐ray single crystal diffraction. Energetic performance was calculated by using EXPLO5 v6.01 based on calculated heats of formation (Gaussian 03) and experimentally determined densities at 25 °C. The results show that the nitration product 1‐nitro‐3,5‐di(nitroxymethyl)‐1,2,4‐triazole, containing a nitro group and two nitroxy groups, exhibits good detonation properties (D=8574 m s−1, P=32.7 GPa). In addition, its low melting point makes it very attractive as an energetic plasticizer in solid propellants.
