Published: July 2017

Проведен анализ анизотропии свойств твердого раствора Bi2Se0.3Te2.7 с помощью построения указательных поверхностей для коэффициентов термоэлектрической эффективности и термического расширения. Текстура является важным фактором, формирующим анизотропию свойств и технологическую пригодность слитка для изготовления модулей. Проведен анализ анизотропии свойств на основе изучения текстуры в слитках, полученных модифицированным методом Бриджмена (выращивание термоэлектрических пластин в плоской полости). Анализ текстуры показал, что для предложенного метода кристаллизации существенным фактором, влияющим на формирование структуры термоэлектрического материала, является не только скорость кристаллизации, но и конструктивное исполнение кристаллизационной полости. При уменьшении толщины пластины в результате изменения условий теплоотвода в тонком зазоре можно получить более совершенную структуру. DOI: 10.21883/FTP.2017.08.44789.58

Впервые исследованы термоэлектрические свойства (термоэдс и электрическое сопротивление) и процессы кристаллизации спиннингованных лент при 300-800 K. Определена область стабильности исходного состояния, температура начала кристаллизации и влияние термического отжига на фактор мощности сплава. DOI: 10.21883/FTP.2017.08.44790.59
Высокотемпературная диффузия магния в бездислокационном кремнии
Authors: Шуман В.Б. , Астров Ю.А. , Лодыгин А.Н. , Порцель Л.М.
Published: July 2017

С использованием сандвич-метода легирования монокристаллического бездислокационного кремния магнием исследована диффузия примеси в диапазоне температур 1000-1200oС. Найденная зависимость коэффициента диффузии межузельного магния от температуры универсальным образом описывает данные настоящей работы и ранее исследованную температурную область 600-800oС. Малая энергия активации диффузии (1.83 эВ) свидетельствует о межузельном транспорте примеси. DOI: 10.21883/FTP.2017.08.44792.8532

Published: July 2017

Методом жидкофазной эпитаксии на поверхности эпитаксиального слоя In0.25GaAsSb, изопериодного с подложкой GaSb(001), впервые сформированы квантовые точки InSb в интервале температур T=450-467oC. Просвечивающая электронная микроскопия показала, что форма квантовой точки близка к усеченному конусу, а распределение их в ансамбле по высоте и размеру основания является монодисперсным. Крупные квантовые точки (размер основания ~30-50 нм, высота 3 нм) имели специфический контраст на изображении в планарной геометрии с дифракционным контрастом, что указывало на присутствие дефектов несоответствия. Модификация химического состава рабочей поверхности подложки за счет нанесения эпитаксиального слоя In0.25GaAsSb позволила в 3 раза увеличить плотность ансамбля (1·1010 см-2) квантовых точек InSb по сравнению с осаждением непосредственно на бинарное соединение GaSb.

Проведены измерения температурных зависимостей электросопротивления rho(T) образцов гранулярного высокотемпературного сверхпроводника YBa2Cu3O7-delta при различных значениях напряженности поперечного внешнего магнитного поля при 0≤ Hext≤1900 Оe в диапазоне температур от верхней критической температуры джозефсоновских слабых связей" Tc2J до температур, несколько превышающих температуру сверхпроводящего перехода Tc. На основании полученных данных установлены характер полевых зависимостей критических температур сверхпроводящих гранул и слабых связей", а также температурных и полевых зависимостей величины магнитного вклада в электросопротивление [Deltarho(T,H)=rho(T)Hext=const-rho(T)Hext=0]. Показано, что поведение магнитного вклада в электросопротивление Deltarho вдоль линии фазового перехода, связанного с началом процесса проникновения магнитного поля в виде вихрей Абрикосова в подсистему сверхпроводящих гранул Tc1g(Hext), носит аномальный характер. Развиты представления о перераспределении магнитного потока между обеими подсистемами двухуровневого ВТСП в окрестности Tc1g: плотность вихрей Джозефсона уменьшается, плотность вихрей Абрикосова растет.

Published: July 2017

Изучено влияние нестехиометрии на период решетки кубического карбида ванадия VCy (0.65 < y < 0.875). Установлено, что упорядочение карбида ванадия VCy с образованием сверхструктур V6C5 и V8C7 приводит к росту периода базисной кристаллической решетки по сравнению с неупорядоченным карбидом. С учетом изменения периода решетки обсуждается вопрос о направлении статических смещений атомов вблизи вакансии.

Влияние структуры гетерогенного нанокристаллического тела (песчаника) на динамику накопления микротрещин при трении
Authors: Веттегрень В.И. , Пономарев А.В. , Щербаков И.П. , Мамалимов Р.И.
Published: July 2017

При трении гетерогенного материала --- песчаника --- наблюдаются вспышки триболюминесценции. Она возникает при релаксации возбуждения свободных радикалов =Si-O-. Эти радикалы образуются при разрывах связей Si-O-Si и располагаются на берегах микротрещин. Микротрещины образуются на границах микрокристаллов полевого шпата и кварца. Их размеры варьируются от ~ 0.4 до ~ 7 mum. Образование микротрещин при трении приводит к откалыванию микрокристаллов полевого шпата и кварца от образца. Работа выполнена при финансовой поддержке РФФИ (грант N 16-05-00137). DOI: 10.21883/FTT.2017.08.44758.18

Неупругое поведение при сжатии керамики с иерархической поровой структурой
Authors: Григорьев М.В. , Савченко Н.Л. , Буякова С.П. , Кульков С.Н.
Published: July 2017

Изучено поведение при сжатии керамики Аl2O3 с объeмом порового пространства от 35 до 60% с иерархической поровой структурой трeх видов: крупной пористости размером 80-100 mum, мелкой пористости размером 14-15 mum и промежуточной межблочной пористости, включающей протяженные (110-120 mum) поровые микроканалы, образованные в результате зонального обособления при спекании. Показано, что полученная иерархическая поровая структура обусловливает формирование иерархической деформационной структуры в объеме керамики и приводит к понижению масштаба процессов разрушения от макроскопического в случае унимодальной керамики до микромасштабного разрушения, сравнимого с размерами сформировавшихся при спекании блоков.

Влияние локальной атомной упаковки тонких пленок MoS-=SUB=-x-=/SUB=- на их электрокаталитические свойства при восстановлении водорода
Authors: Фоминский В.Ю. , Неволин В.Н. , Романов Р.И. , Фоминский Д.В. , Джумаев П.С.
Published: July 2017

Исследуются особенности структуры, состава и электрокаталитические свойства тонких пленок MoSx, полученных методом импульсного лазерного осаждения из мишени Мо в реактивном газе H2S. Факел направлялся по касательной и по нормали к поверхности подложки, что позволило сформировать аморфные пленки с различной локальной упаковкой атомов в аморфной матрице пленок, состоящей из кластеров Mo3-S. Установлено, что ориентация кластеров Mo3-S может оказывать влияние на токопрохождение в катализаторе, а также на тип и поверхностную плотность каталитически активных участков в реакции восстановления водорода. При малых и примерно равных количествах Мо и Pt (~ 4 mug/cm2), осажденных на стеклоуглерод, пленки MoSx уступали пленке Pt по перенапряжению водорода в кислотном растворе на 90 mV, однако при больших катодных потенциалах тонкопленочные катализаторы MoSx превосходили по эффективности тонкопленочную Pt.

Social Meanings of Public Architecture: A Victorian Elucidation
Authors: Armstrong James P. , Coleman Jeffrey M. , Goodsell Charles T. , Hollar Danielle S. , Hutchseon Keith A.
Published: July 2017

A theoretical framework for social interpretation of public buildings is proposed. Seven types of social meaning attributable to such structures are identified, by which we mean forms of Ullderstanding apart from those associated with the standard architectural criteria of aesthetic quality and programmatic functionality. These types are named after John Ruskin's Seven Lamps of Architecture: Sacrifice, Truth, Power, Beauty, Life, Memory, and Obedience. Utilization of this analytic  framework is illustrated by applying it to the State, War and Navy Building in Washington, D.C., now known as the Old Executive Office Building (OEOB).

Public Architecture As Social Anchor in the Postmodern Age
Authors: Goodsell Charles T.
Published: July 2017

Government buildings can provide physical reference points for the creation of common meaning, even in the postmodern condition. They remind us of our collective activities, help to distinguish the public and private spheres, and crystalize important institutional meanings. Also the relatively open nature of government buildings in this country, and their use as backdrops for public demonstrations, underscore our democratic freedoms. Another characteristic of our architectural seats of power is that they may at times overawe, but in addition they seem to draw out a quite natural collective pride. In addition, the durability and traditional design of older public buildings permit them to connect the distant past a commitment to future generations.
Symbolic Interaction in the Assistant Secretary's Staff Meeting
Authors: X. .
Published: July 2017

Political scientists recognize that the personalities and group interactions of top government executives influence their policy decisions and timing, but they are frustrated when they try to analyze the executive level(in Washington,Cabinet secretaries,assistant secretaries and bureau directors).Unlike Congress it is closed, unlike the White House it receives little press coverage, and unlike the career bureaucracy opportunities for interviews and actual experience are rare. Participant observation by political scientists occupying positions at this level is nearly the only method. Erving Goffinan's theory of dramaturgy provides a structure for analysis and ties to theories of symbolic interaction.
Miserere
Authors: Nicolay John Alan
Published: July 2017

Dr. Robert Bowler asks Dr. Ian Gestrode, Professor of History in a small, church affiliated liberal arts school to "sound out" the possibility of gay fraternity at St. Elgin's College. Gestrode advises his untenured colleague against this, but does make the inquiries, principally through his friend the Reverend Alan Saunders. A female student, infatuated with the Bowler, briefly draws Gestrode into her amorous intentions toward the English professor, but not before Gestrode questions his own feelings about her. A campus riot, national press, and a career self-immolates: the life of the professor, and the contradictions of freedom, the isolation of leadership, and the search for identity. The story recognizes the power of institutions, and how singular individuals play out scripts prepared for them well in advance.
"The back of the tapestry": Social Action Art and Public Policy
Authors: Adams Elise B. , Marini Frank
Published: July 2017

Art can be a potent force for political change, sometimes supporting and sometimes challenging established social institutions and ideology. The works of two contemporary artists a photographer, Kira Corser, and a poet, Frances Payne Adler address the need for public policy change in a number of controversial areas. In travelling exhibits and in their books, these artists attempt to awaken the public and public policy makers in the United States to the plight of the homeless, to the disastrous effects of drug addiction, and to the need for improved health care. By appealing to the emotions as well as to reason, the art of social action artists such as Adler and Corser has tremendous potential for effecting social change.

This essay uses the fictitious setting of the Riverworld to bring together some of the great-and not-so-great--minds that have contributed to our  development over the past two thousand years. It examines their thoughts as they relate to a current topic: recruiting top-level administrators who are both technically competent and  responsive to the values of the system they serve. The essay does not reach any firm conclusions, but rather leaves the reader to find his or her own answers to the questions it raises.

Citizenship, Community, and Ethics: Forrest Gump as a Moral Exemplary
Authors: Richardson William D. , McNinch Ronald L.
Published: July 2017

"Forrest Gump" bas been extraordinarily popular with the ordinary citizens and one of the reasons is self-evident: it presents a Jeffersonian confidence in the moral stalwartness of the yeoman citizenry that runs counter to some of the current approaches in ethics. The film celebrates a basic decency and a common sense that are accessible to all. No real or imagined superiority is required for one to partake. The film is not only popular but also populist in its assertion of the primacy of the ordinary citizen within this regime. In a political climate that now finds the tenure of elected officials uncertain and the legitimacy of public administration suspect, the visible portrayal of exemplary citizen virtues may serve as a timely reminder to all that, more so than any other regime, a democratic republic is ultimately and fundamentally dependent on the core values possessed by its citizenry.

This essay undertakes an examination of the role of Oxford and Cambridge and the imparting of the humanities--or what the English call "arts"--to future civil servants. The essay begins by laying out the historical reasons for the centrality of the humanities in the recruitment of the top levels of the bureaucracy--a phenomenon unknown in other Western industrialized democracies. The author then assesses the contributions such education has made to the character of and quality of British public administration primarily in terms of its positive, but not to the exclusion of its negative, effects.

This tale is of a bureaucrat-turned-innkeeper. He had "sleepwalked" through his job for years, a high salary and comfortable environment having made it too comfortable for him to leave. Ironically, he would have never left unless he had been given a push--having been threatened by the agency as a direct result of the integrity of his actions. But he has never regretted leaving the Washington bureaucracy, which remains immobile, but in which the cogs move on.

Mary Parker Follett and Transforming Disaster Response
Authors: Lester William
Published: July 2017

That Mary Parker Follett (1868-1933) was ahead of her time in many respects is beyond question and is well documented. Yet, we continue to struggle with many of the same and similar questions that to some degree confronted Follett during her time. While formulating and examining these contemporary questions is important, we would be remiss if we fail to study the work done by Follett many decades ago. In fact, we would be wasting valuable time as we confront the many wicked problems that challenge the future. One may be surprised at how prescient Follett’s work is when paired with many of the modern questions we confront. Though Follett’s work can be and should be applied in numerous modern settings, the work can be readily applied to many of the important systemic questions and concerns confronting American disaster response. Delving into Follett’s understanding and often prescriptions for many of these questions can aid us in solving some of these problems. This voice speaking from across the decades needs to be heard and can offer us much insight into dealing with numerous modern problems. The many challenges confronting American disaster response provide a prime example of a modern day application for Follett’s work.

Where’s Waldo: Revisiting the Administrative Novel
Authors: Connor George
Published: July 2017

In 1968 Dwight Waldo published The Novelist on Organization and Administration: An Inquiry into the Relationships Between the Two Worlds.  His very simple observation was that “one can learn much about administration from novels” (1968, 4). After thirty years, it may be a time to re-examine both the literary and academic side of Waldo’s novel approach. The article offers Kurt Vonnegut’s Player Piano and David Foster Wallace’s The Pale King, one classic and one contemporary work, as vehicles for revisiting Waldo’s pedagogy and reestablishing the linkage between administration and administrative novels.
In Defense of Bullshit: Administrative Utility of the Philosophically Ephemeral
Authors: Zavattaro Staci M
Published: July 2017

The word bullshit often has a negative connotation – and for good reason. Bullshit often is worse than lying given the stories and calculations involved. What if bullshit could be useful for public administration?

Here, I bring together the revised version with King et al.’s authentic citizen participation to illustrate the utility of bullshit when it comes to idealistic, creative thinking.
The Academic Zoo: Student Profiles, Class Design and Teaching Style

We call it a “zoo” when we see a gathering of disorderly, out-of-control people. Yet, any zookeeper will tell you their environments are calm and organized. Knowing the unique nature of their inhabitants and accommodating their species-specific needs makes for an educational environment for all. The Academic Zoo is no different. This paper introduces four profiles of the exotic creature, the freshman, and describes how they congregate in four types of First Year Seminars.  The author proposes four teaching styles for these seminars, effective in attending to their distinct nature and keeping this zoo from becoming a circus.

Trying to Professionalize Expert Knowledge (Part I): The Short Life of the Municipal Administration Service, 1926-1933
Authors: Lee Mordecai
Published: July 2017

One of the building blocks of the professionalization of American public administration was the recognition of the need for expert knowledge and the wide dissemination of that information to practitioners. Municipal civil servants could adopt and adapt these best practices in their localities. Such was the purpose of the Municipal Administration Service (1926-1933), initially founded by the National Municipal League and funded by the Rockefeller philanthropies. This article is an organizational history of the Service. It presents the life cycle of the agency, including its operations, funding, problems, and the behind-the-scenes public administration politics which led to its demise. In all, the Municipal Administration Service captures the early history of American public administration, its attempt to demonstrate that it was a full-fledged profession with recognized experts and managerial advice that ultimately proved unable to perpetuate itself.

One of the aims in learning natural science is to lead the students have a strong belief of a greatness of God and also to develop their skill of natural science. For that reason, in natural science teaching-learning process, a teacher has to develop students’ spiritual attitude and process skill in order to reach curriculum demand. This study aims to have information about teachers’ ability in developing students’ Islamic spiritual attitude and process skill based on their lesson planning and learning process of natural science classroom at Madrasah Ibtidaiyah Krueng Sabee. The research method used was descriptive method. The instrument of the research was an analysis guide of RPP to find the ability of teacher in developing spiritual attitude and natural science process skill in RPP; a learning observation sheet to find the ability of the teachers in developing spiritual attitude and natural science process skill in learning process; and an interview guide to find the teachers’ obstacles in developing spiritual attitude and natural science process skill as a support data.

IDEALITAS KEMANDIRIAN DAYAH

Published: July 2017

Dayah merupakan institusi pendidikan Islam awal di Aceh sekaligus menjadi pilar pendidikan Islam di Indonesia yang eksistesinya telah diukir jauh sebelum negara Indonesia itu sendiri lahir, sehingga mencirikan identitas keislaman dan keaslian (indigenous) Aceh. Secara historis, pendirian dayah diinisiasikan oleh masyarakat. Oleh karenanya penyelenggaraan pendidikannya juga bersifat swasta. Kemandirian seperti ini dapat dipertahankan oleh dayah meskipun tetap terdapat perubahan. Dayah di Aceh pada umumnya dapat menjamin eksistensinya tanpa menggantungkan diri pada para pihak untuk membantu kehidupan dayah. Bahkan dayah di Aceh dapat bertahan justeru karena semangat kemandirian ini. Hal ini bisa terjadi karena dayah dapat eksis dengan jiwa interpreneurship (kewirausahaan), baik dalam sektor jasa, pertanian, perkebunan, peternakan, perikanan, perdagangan maupun pada sektor-sektor riil lainnya.

This study investigates the vowels and hamza as it offers the phoenetics’ characteristics for both vowels and hamza in their separate contexts and for the effect of phoenetics contexts on their phoenetics’ characteristics. This study concludes that there is a symmetrical relationship between the characteristics of the vowels and hamza especially when the vowel comes after alif at the end of the word. In addition to waht have been mentioned, this study gropes the effect of syllabic structure in Arabic on the phoenetics’ sequences for the vowels which lead to the convert of waw and ya to hamza after alif. This conversion is discussed despite the difficulties of the articulations of the sounds. Was the hamza suitable phoenetics’ choice for this case? These things are discussed in the following article.

Published: July 2017

This paper models the U.S. strawberry market and examines how increasing imports from Mexico affect the prices and shipment values of California and Florida winter strawberries. The Synthetic Inverse Demand System is used to quantify the impact of Mexican shipments on the prices of strawberries. The estimation results indicate that market prices are responsive to supply from each of the three sources, suggesting an integrated, competitive national market. The simulation results suggest that rapidly growing Mexican shipments will cause large losses to the U.S. strawberry industry, posing challenges to the sustainability and survival of the industry, particularly that of the Florida industry. Policy implications and recommendations for the industry are discussed.
An empirical investigation of patent and trademark ownership propensity and intensity in the U.S. food and drink industry
Authors: Grashuis Jasper , Dary Stanley Kojo
Published: July 2017

We use patent and trademark ownership data to study product, process, and marketing innovation by 157 manufacturers in the U.S. public food and drink industry. For the 2000-2014 period, most patented innovations relate to processes for manufacturing and designs for marketing, whereas patented innovations in food and drink products or compositions are relatively few. Meanwhile, intellectual property in general is more often protected by trademark ownership. Empirically, we specify a panel logistic model and a panel negative binomial model to study the relationship of firm characteristics to the propensity and intensity of patent and trademark ownership, respectively. In each model, firm size exhibits a significant and positive relationship to the propensity and intensity of patented innovations in products, processes, and marketing. Past innovation, past income, and firm age also have a positive relationship to patent and trademark ownership in most models, whereas leverage is only estimated to negatively relate to the propensity and intensity of trademark ownership. We use our main findings and conclusions to inform research, management, and policy implications.

Published: July 2017

Clinical and subclinical disorders and diseases cause reproductive failures
and decline in milk production. Etiology of disorders is mainly because of
pathological effect of microorganisms, lapses in nutrition and lodging, as
well as in management. After partrition, body is under stress and milk yield
is highest, which favors appearance of metabolic and infective diseases.
Status of puerperium, number of lactation, body condition score and season of
parturition, have highest effect to cyclic ovarian activity. Regular
development of dominant follicles, ovulation, formation of corpus luteum and
luteolysis is necessary for establishment of regular cyclic ovarian activity,
which leads to better fertility. Experiment had included 50 cows during first
52 days of lactation. Cows were separated in two main groups, those with
normal puerperium - NP (n=32) and abnormal puerperium - AP (n=18).
Examinations have been performed during period of 6 to 52 days postpartum.
Ovarian dominant follicles have been observed using diagnostic ultrasound
linear scanner. The highest number of dominant follicles are present during
first two examinations, then their number declines and later in last two
examinations rise again. Decrease in number of dominant follicles in both
groups is most expressed in period of 14-30 days. During first examination,
left ovaries have more dominant follicles, compared with right ovaries, while
during later examinations, it is changed in favor of right ovaries. Increased
number of vital dominant follicles from period 38-45 days postpartum and
absence of abnormal uterine content in lumen in same period postpartum is
sign of upcoming fertile estrus.

Authors: Bogdan Maja , Jovic Rajko , Arbutina Tanja
Published: July 2017

Introduction. Bilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis usually occurs
after thyroid surgery. In bilateral vocal cord paralysis, the voice is clear
or slightly hoarse. The aim of this study was to determine whether the
quality of voice and speech significantly deteriorates after the surgical
treatment of bilateral recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis. Material and
Methods. The study included 16 patients with bilateral vocal cord paralysis
and 16 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. The patients underwent partial
arytenoidectomy with posterior cordectomy at the Clinical Center of Vojvodina
in the period from January to April 2014. The quality of voice and speech was
determined before and after surgical treatment by subjective, objective,
aerodynamic voice analysis, and analysis of spontaneous speech, and then
compared to the control group. Results. The results of this study showed that
in patients with bilateral vocal cord paralysis the voice and speech quality
was significantly worse compared to the healthy subjects. The results of
subjective and aerodynamic analysis showed that there was a statistically
significant deterioration in voice quality after the surgical treatment
(p<0.05; p=0.001). The values of objective analysis and analysis of
spontaneous speech parameters did not significantly change after the surgery
(p>0.05; p=0.401). Conclusion. The patients with bilateral vocal cord
paralysis have a poorer voice and speech quality compared to the healthy
subjects. After the surgical treatment, patients presented with a lower voice
quality, but there were no significant changes regarding the ability of
spontaneous speech.
Branislav Nusic and X-rays in the story “Roentgen’s Photography”
Authors: Babic Rade , Jelenkovic Ankica , Babic Stankovic , Babic Strahinja
Published: July 2017

Introduction. Shortly after the discovery of X-rays, their practical
application in the clinical practice became the object of interest of many
non-medical individuals. One of them was the famous Serbian writer,
Branislav Nusic. This paper presents the life and work of Branislav Nusic,
as well as his article: ?Roentgen?s Photography? which was published in the
journal ?Politics? (July 8, 1906; N? 892, p. 3), under the alias Ben Akiba,
in the Cyrillic script. The life and work of Branislav Nusic. Alchiviadi
Nu?a, later Branislav Nusic (1864 - 1938) was a great Serbian literate,
playwright, journalist, photographer, politician, diplomat, member of the
Serbian Royal Academy, President of the Association of Yugoslav Playwrights,
manager of the theaters in Belgrade, Novi Sad, Skopje and Sarajevo, and a
military volunteer in the Serbian - Bulgarian war (1885). ?Roentgen?s
Photography?. The author wrote this text in his own way, the only way he
could and knew, vividly and wittily. He knew about the great power and
strength of X-ray radiation, and he wrote of his knowledge in this short
story. Without Branislav Nusic, the history of Serbian radiology would be
poorer for not seeing the X-rays by the eyes of an educated, intelligent
and, above all, humorous writer. Conclusion. Branislav Nusic, alongside
Nikola Tesla, Mihajlo Pupin Idvorski, Dr. Abraham Vinaver, and all past and
present Serbian radiologists, has become an essential and memorable link in
the chain of the history of the Serbian radiology.
The Myokine Irisin Is Released in Response to Saturated Fatty Acids and Promotes Pancreatic β-Cell Survival and Insulin Secretion

This study explored the role of irisin as a new pancreatic β-cell secretagogue and survival factor and its potential role in the communication between skeletal muscle and pancreatic β-cells under lipotoxic conditions. Recombinant irisin stimulated insulin biosynthesis and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in a PKA-dependent manner and prevented saturated fatty acid–induced apoptosis in human and rat pancreatic β-cells, as well as in human and murine pancreatic islets, via AKT/BCL2 signaling. Treatment of myotubes with 0.5 mmol/L palmitate for 4 h, but not with oleate, promoted an increase in irisin release in the culture medium. Moreover, increased serum levels of irisin were observed in mice fed with a high-fat diet. Mouse serum rich in irisin and the conditioned medium from myotubes exposed to palmitate for 4 h significantly reduced apoptosis of murine pancreatic islets and insulin-secreting INS-1E cells, respectively, and this was abrogated in the presence of an irisin-neutralizing antibody. Finally, in vivo administration of irisin improved GSIS and increased β-cell proliferation. In conclusion, irisin can promote β-cell survival and enhance GSIS and may thus participate in the communication between skeletal muscle and β-cells under conditions of excess saturated fatty acids.
