description: Dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) and spark discharge, two versatile atmospheric pressure plasma-based techniques, have been employed to generate nanoparticles. This study compares the characteristics of metal nanoparticles generated by a DBD reactor and a spark discharge generator with argon as the working gas. The gas temperature in the discharge region of the DBD reactor remained near room temperature, while that of the spark reactor varied from 470 to 1120 K and generally increased with increasing applied voltage amplitude in the range of 2–10 kV and driving frequency in the range of 1–10 kHz. Comparing to spark-generated nanoparticles under the same voltage, frequency, and flow rate, DBD-generated nanoparticles have smaller sizes, better monodispersity, and lower number concentrations. The number concentration of DBD-generated particles decreases significantly under high working voltage and frequency, while the number concentration of spark-generated particles increases with increasing working voltage. Under continuous operations over several hours, the DBD reactor has better temporal stability in generating nanoparticles than the spark generator. © 2017 American Association for Aerosol Research

description: Rule violations have usually been studied from a third-person perspective, identifying situational factors that render violations more or less likely. A first-person perspective of the agent that actively violates the rules, on the other hand, is only just beginning to emerge. Here we show that committing a rule violation sensitises towards subsequent negative stimuli as well as subsequent authority-related stimuli. In a Prime-Probe design, we used an instructed rule-violation task as the Prime and a word categorisation task as the Probe. Also, we employed a control condition that used a rule inversion task as the Prime (instead of rule violations). Probe targets were categorised faster after a violation relative to after a rule-based response if they related to either, negative valence or authority. Inversions, however, primed only negative stimuli and did not accelerate the categorisation of authority-related stimuli. A heightened sensitivity towards authority-related targets thus seems to be specific to rule violations. A control experiment showed that these effects cannot be explained in terms of semantic priming. Therefore, we propose that rule violations necessarily activate authority-related representations that make rule violations qualitatively different from simple rule inversions.

description: Our main imaging analysis will focus on the vmPFC region, which is known to be involved in processes of value-based decision making.

another set of regions on which our analysis will focus are the faces processing areas, mainly fusiform face area (FFA), superior temporal sulcus (STS) and occipital faces area (OFA).
The FFA and STS are of great importance due to their involvement in processing faces, and their dynamic attributes.

In order to functionally define these face areas, an independent face localizer task will be used.

Another region we will focus on during analysis is the hippocampus, due to its involvement in learning and memory,
and the striatum, which via dopaminergic connections to the PFC is involved in valuation processes and learning.

Finally the parietal cortex, which was shown to be involved in attention processes, will also be examined.

We expect to find differential response in these regions to Go items in comparison to NoGo items, in a passive viewing task, in the training part, where a consistent association of the Go signal and the stimuli is formed; as well as increased activation during probe phase, when subjects will be asked to choose between similarly value item where one is a Go item, and the other is NoGo.

description: In this paper, 17 compounds (1–17) were isolated from the leaves of Hemp (Cannabis sativa f. sativa). Among the isolates, two were determined to be new spirans: cannabispirketal (1), and α-cannabispiranol 4’-O-β-D-glucopyranose (2) by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy, LC-MS, and HRESIMS. The known compounds 7, 8, 10, 13, 15, and 16 were isolated from Hemp (C. sativa f. sativa) for the first time. Furthermore, compounds 8 and 13 were isolated from the nature for the first time. All isolated compounds were evaluated for cytotoxicity on different tissue-derived passage cancer cell lines through cell viability and apoptosis assay. Among these compounds, compounds 5, 9 and 16 exhibited a broad-spectrum antitumor effect via inhibiting cell proliferation and promoting apoptosis. These results obtained have provided valuable clues to the understanding of the cytotoxic profile for these isolated compounds from Hemp (C. sativa f. sativa).

description: Emergence of multi-drug resistant strains of Acinetobacter baumannii has caused significant health problems and is responsible for high morbidity and mortality. Overexpression of AdeABC efflux system is one of the major mechanisms. In this study, we have focused on overcoming the drug resistance by identifying inhibitors that can effectively bind and inhibit integral membrane protein, AdeB of this efflux pump. We performed homology modeling to generate structure of AdeB using MODELLER v9.16 followed by model refinement using 3D-Refine tool and validated using PSVS, ProsaWeb, ERRAT, etc. The energy minimization of modeled protein was done using Protein preparation wizard application included in Schrodinger suite. High-throughput virtual screening of 159,868 medicinal compounds against AdeB was performed using three sequential docking modes (i.e. HTVS, SP and XP). Furthermore, absorption, distribution, metabolism, excretion, and toxicity (ADMET) analysis was done using QIKPROP. The selected 123 compounds were further analyzed for binding free energy by molecular mechanics (using prime MM-GBSA). We have also performed enrichment study (ROC curve analysis) to validate our docking results. The selected molecule and its interaction with AdeB were validated by molecular dynamics simulation (MDS) using GROMACS v5.1.4. In silico high-throughput virtual screening and MDS validation identified ZINC01155930 ((4R)-3-(cycloheptoxycarbonyl)-4-(4-etochromen-3-yl)-2-methyl-4,6,7,8-tetrahydroquinolin-5-olate) as a possible inhibitor for AdeB. Hence, it might be a suitable efflux pump inhibitor worthy of further investigation in order to be used for controlling infections caused by Acinetobacter baumannii.

description: The magnetic function of layered molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) has been investigated via simulation, but few reliable experimental results have been explored. Herein, we developed edges-rich structural MoS2 nanosheets via liquid phase exfoliation approach, triggering exceptional ferromagnetism. The magnetic measurements revealed the clear ferromagnetic property of layered MoS2, compared to the pristine MoS2 in bulk exhibiting diamagnetism. The existence of ferromagnetism mostly was attributed to the presence of grain boundaries with abundant irregular edges confirmed by the transmission electron microscopy, magnetic force microscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, which experimentally provided reliable evidences on irregular edges-rich states engineering ferromagnetism to clarify theoretical calculation. IMPACT STATEMENT • Edges-rich MoS2 layers are achieved via chemical liquid approach. • The abundant edges MoS2 nanosheets demonstrate highly superior magnetic property, which provides reliable evidences to identify irregular edge states engineering ferromagnetism experimentally.

description: Acacia ligulata A.Cunn. ex Benth. (Fabaceae: Mimosoideae) is a native Australian plant used traditionally by Australian Aboriginal groups. This study was undertaken to investigate the bioactivity of A. ligulata extracts and to evaluate their chemical composition. Potential antibacterial, cytotoxic and enzyme inhibitory effects relevant to traditional medicinal and food uses of the species were examined and LC-MS/MS was performed to investigate the chemical composition. Antibacterial activity was observed for bark and leaf extracts with an MIC for the bark extract of 62.5 μg/mL against Streptococcus pyogenes. Pod extracts showed cytotoxic effects against cancer cells, with the highest activity against melanoma SK-MEL28 cells with IC50 values between 40.8 and 80.6 μg/mL. Further, the leaf and pod extracts also inhibited α-amylase EC-3.2.1.1 and α-glucosidase EC-3.2.1.20 with IC50 values between 9.7–34.8 and 12.6–64.3 μg/mL, respectively. The LC-MS/MS profiling indicated that several different saponins were present in the active extracts.

description: Despite the negative impacts of urbanisation, some species adapt to pressures of habitat loss and fragmentation. Trumpeter Hornbills Bycanistes bucinator are a large avian forest frugivore that uses urban environments in South Africa. Consequently, we used GPS/UHF transmitters to study their home range size, movement and habitat use in an urban–forest mosaic in Eshowe, South Africa from March to October 2014. We estimated the home range size using three methods: minimum convex polygon (MCP), kernel density estimation (KDE) and local convex hull (LoCoH). Our results showed that overall monthly home range size was 5.1 ± 1.28 km2 (mean ± SE; 95% MCP), 4.6 ± 1.14 km2 (95% KDE) and 1.9 ± 0. 46 km2 (95% LoCoH). However, individual home range sizes varied monthly and seasonally. We found that all individuals tagged used mostly the indigenous forest and frequently utilised urban residential areas (gardens) with little or no use of cultivated land. Observed individual variations in monthly and seasonal home ranges could be a response to variations in availability of key fruit resources in the urban residential and indigenous forest mosaic. This study supports the use of more than one method of home range estimation for insight regarding home range and habitat use in urban–forest mosaics for this large forest frugivore.

description: Terpenes are natural products with a remarkable diversity in their chemical structures and they hold a significant market share commercially owing to their distinct applications. These potential molecules are usually derived from terrestrial plants, marine and microbial sources. In vitro production of terpenes using plant tissue culture and plant metabolic engineering, although receiving some success, the complexity in downstream processing because of the interference of phenolics and product commercialization due to regulations that are significant concerns. Industrial workhorses’ viz., Escherichia coli and Saccharomyces cerevisiae have become microorganisms to produce non-native terpenes in order to address critical issues such as demand-supply imbalance, sustainability and commercial viability. S. cerevisiae enjoys several advantages for synthesizing non-native terpenes with the most significant being the compatibility for expressing cytochrome P450 enzymes from plant origin. Moreover, achievement of high titers such as 40 g/l of amorphadiene, a sesquiterpene, boosts commercial interest and encourages the researchers to envisage both molecular and process strategies for developing yeast cell factories to produce these compounds. This review contains a brief consideration of existing strategies to engineer S. cerevisiae toward the synthesis of terpene molecules. Some of the common targets for synthesis of terpenes in S. cerevisiae are as follows: overexpression of tHMG1, ERG20, upc2-1 in case of all classes of terpenes; repression of ERG9 by replacement of the native promoter with a repressive methionine promoter in case of mono-, di- and sesquiterpenes; overexpression of BTS1 in case of di- and tetraterpenes. Site-directed mutagenesis such as Upc2p (G888A) in case of all classes of terpenes, ERG20p (K197G) in case of monoterpenes, HMG2p (K6R) in case of mono-, di- and sesquiterpenes could be some generic targets. Efforts are made to consolidate various studies (including patents) on this subject to understand the similarities, to identify novel strategies and to contemplate potential possibilities to build a robust yeast cell factory for terpene or terpenoid production. Emphasis is not restricted to metabolic engineering strategies pertaining to sterol and mevalonate pathway, but also other holistic approaches for elsewhere exploitation in the S. cerevisiae genome are discussed. This review also focuses on process considerations and challenges during the mass production of these potential compounds from the engineered strain for commercial exploitation.

description: Diaphragma juglandis Fructus has been known for its effect on tonifying kidney in traditional Uighur medicine. During our ongoing studies on the discovery of biologically active compounds from folk medicine, a pair of flavanonol glycoside isomers named (2S,3S)-taxifolin-3-O-α-d-arabinofuranoside (1) and (2S,3S)-taxifolin-3-O-α-l-arabinofuranoside (2) were isolated, among them, 1 was a new compound. It is the first report of taxifolin-3-O-arabinofuranosides in both α-d and α-l configuration forms in genus Juglans. Their structures were determined on the basis of spectroscopic analysis and chemical evidence, in combination with circular dichroism.

description: The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the effect of peritoneal dialysis (PD) and hemodialysis (HD) on renal anemia (RA) in renal disease patients by a meta-analysis. Relevant studies published before June 2015 were searched. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with 95% confidence interval (CI) was used to evaluate the effect of HD and PD on RA based on five indexes: hemoglobin, ferritin, transferrin saturation index, serum albumin, and parathyroid hormone. Sensitivity analysis and publication bias assessment were conducted to evaluate the stability and reliability of our results. A total of fourteen eligible studies with 1103 cases underwent HD and 625 cases underwent PD were used for this meta-analysis. There were no significant difference for levels of hemoglobin (SMD = −0.23, 95% CI: −0.74 to 0.28), ferritin (SMD = 0.01, 95% CI: −0.59 to 0.62), parathyroid hormone (SMD = 0.11, 95% CI: −1.53 to 1.75) and transferrin saturation index (SMD = −0.06, 95% CI: −0.67 to 0.56) between HD and PD group. However, the content of serum albumin in HD group was much more than that in PD group (SMD = 1.58, 95% CI: 0.35 to 2.81). Neither of the included studies could reverse the pooled side effect and Egger’s test demonstrated no publication bias. Both of the two dialysis strategies have a similar effect on RA in renal disease patients.

description: In situ immobilization of CuI nanoparticles (NPs) on modified poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) [SMA] was achieved. Proper immobilization of CuI on the prepared support was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP). In order to present a quantitative description for experimental features of CuI/SMI nanocatalyst, the coordination behavior and the nature of interactions between Cu(I) ions and modified SMI ligand in gas and solution phases was computationally assessed. In this line, the mathematical properties of electron density functions were calculated and analyzed topologically via density functional theory (DFT) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) approaches for different coordination modes. Encouraged by our computational results, this new catalyst was employed in a one-pot, three-component reaction involving terminal alkynes, alkyl halides and sodium azide in water resulting in highly regioselective synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles in high to excellent yields. The catalyst was reused without pre-activation and recycled for at least five runs without significant decrease in its activity being observed.

description: In this study, two perfluoroalkyl azobenzene trichlorosilanes were synthesized and then characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1H NMR, and 19F NMR. Subsequently, these fluorine containing trichlorosilanes were applied to form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on silicon substrates by the method of chemical deposition in liquid phase. The optothermal responsively isomerization of the azobenzene was achieved via UV irradiation and heat treatment. The surface structures of the SAMs were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results showed that the thermal migration of the terminal fluoroalkyl groups promoted the isomerization of the azo-groups. Moreover, the reversible contact angles of the SAMs demonstrated a good reversibility of surface wettability, which was consistent with the optothermal responsive isomerization of the azo-groups.

description: Traditional in situ gel forming systems are potential applications for parenteral administration but always accompanied with burst release. To overcome this limitation, the tinidazole (TNZ)-loaded in situ gel forming system using a diblock copolymer, monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)–block-poly(d,l-lactide) (mPEG–PDLLA), was designed. The formulation of the mPEG–PDLLA-based TNZ in situ gel forming system contained 5% (w/w) TNZ, 0.4% glycerol, 5 ml N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) and 35% (w/w) mPEG–PDLLA. The in situ gel forming system showed sustained TNZ release over 192 h with low burst effect (around 7% in the first 8 h) in the in vitro release study. Additionally, in vivo studies were performed on rabbits with ligature-induced periodontitis, and the concentration of TNZ in the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) as well as the pharmacokinetic parameters was calculated and the pharmacological effect of TNZ-loaded in situ gel forming (mPEG–PDLLA)-based system was found effective. Finally, histological studies revealed that the gel was a safe formulation with low irritation. The desirable drug release kinetics combined with the excellent in vivo characteristics highlight the potential of the gel in the treatment of periodontitis. Therefore, these results confirmed that the TNZ-loaded in situ gel forming mPEG–PDLLA-based system could reduce burst release of TNZ and act as a sustained-release and injectable drug depot for periodontitis treatment.

description: Purpose: Many studies have assessed the changes of retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thickness in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS), but the results were inconsistent. Therefore, a meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the RNFL changes in OSAS measured in vivo. Methods: Pertinent studies were identified by a comprehensive search of PubMed, Embase, Web of science, Cochrane library, Scopus, and Chinese biomedical disc databases from inception to August 2016. A fixed effects model was used to pool the weighted mean difference (WMD) and 95% confidence interval (CI) between OSAS group and control group. Results: Seventeen studies were included in the final analysis, with 12 for descriptive analysis and 5 for meta-analysis, involving a total of 1757 eyes (1106 in the OSAS group and 651 in the control group). The RNFL in OSAS was significantly lower than control group, with pooled WMD −3.53 (95%CI: −4.80 to −2.26, P < 0.001) for average RNFL, −3.69 (95%CI:−5.49 to −1.89 P < 0.001) for superior RNFL, −4.66 (95%CI: −6.92 to −2.39, P < 0.001) for inferior RNFL, −3.15 (95%CI:−5.19 to −1.10, P = 0.003) for nasal RNFL, and −2.45 (95%CI: −4.59 to −0.31, P = 0.025) for temporal RNFL. Along with severities of OSAS, a trend of more profound reduction of average RNFL was observed in advanced OSAS, with WMD of average RNFL thickness −1.75 (95%CI:−4.47 to −0.98, P = 0.209) for mild OSAS, −3.54 (95%CI:−6.33 to −0.73, P = 0.013) for moderate OSAS, and −7.17 (95%CI:−10.00 to −4.34, P < 0.001) for severe OSAS. The majority of studies in the descriptive review demonstrated similar findings. Conclusion: The OSAS was associated with a reduced RNFL in all quadrants compared to controls. Evaluation of RNFL may serve as a tool for grading severities of OSAS. Considering the limited evidence, the conclusions should be interpreted cautiously.

description: A new and simple series of side-chain liquid crystalline polymethacrylates containing biphenyl hemiphasmidic mesogens based on 4-[(3,4,5-trialkan)-1-carbonylbenzoate]biphenyl (denoted as PTmBMA, m = 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, m refers to the carbon number of alkoxy tails) groups was designed and successfully synthesised via free radical polymerisation. The phase structures and transitions of the polymers were investigated by the combination of techniques including differential scanning calorimetry, polarizing microscope, one-dimensional/two-dimensional wide-angle X-ray diffraction, and small-angle X-ray scattering. The experimental results revealed that the liquid crystalline phase structures and behaviours of the polymers were found to be strongly dependent on the alkyl tail length (m). When m = 6, the PTmBMA formed a stable smectic phase above Tg. When m = 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, the sample presented a hexagonal columnar mesophase (Φh), suggesting that the alkyl length has played an important role in the phase behaviours of hemiphasmidic side-chain liquid crystalline polymers.

description: This deliverable is the first annual progress report for the SSHOC project, and as such, one of three planned progress reports to be delivered during the project lifetime. It states the progress and status of work in the first year of the SSHOC project (M1-M12). The information gathered here will be updated after six months, (and thus form the official EC periodic report); the next progress report will follow in 2021. The report starts with a general plan for the SSHOC project in Year 1 (2019), and lists the main objectives set up to be achieved. The main part of this deliverable follows activities described in chapters which go into details about highlights and achievements on the level of each Work Package and on the level of Tasks, with notes on deviations from the DoA. The final chapter contains the summary on the delivery of project outputs (namely deliverables), achievement of project milestones, use of resources, and risks met in the Year 1 across all Work Packages. This progress report, and the two that will follow at the end of each project year, form the basis for more extended reporting to the European Commission and provide overview and further improvements to the ongoing work.

description: In situ immobilization of CuI nanoparticles (NPs) on modified poly(styrene-co-maleic anhydride) [SMA] was achieved. Proper immobilization of CuI on the prepared support was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis (EDAX) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP). In order to present a quantitative description for experimental features of CuI/SMI nanocatalyst, the coordination behavior and the nature of interactions between Cu(I) ions and modified SMI ligand in gas and solution phases was computationally assessed. In this line, the mathematical properties of electron density functions were calculated and analyzed topologically via density functional theory (DFT) and quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) approaches for different coordination modes. Encouraged by our computational results, this new catalyst was employed in a one-pot, three-component reaction involving terminal alkynes, alkyl halides and sodium azide in water resulting in highly regioselective synthesis of 1,4-disubstituted 1,2,3-triazoles in high to excellent yields. The catalyst was reused without pre-activation and recycled for at least five runs without significant decrease in its activity being observed.

description: The possibility to stabilise anionic transition states on π-acidic aromatic surfaces has been explicitly demonstrated first in 2013. Since then, anion-π catalysis has been introduced to asymmetric enamine and iminium chemistry and to cascade processes, and the first anion-π enzyme has been created. Moving beyond systems that operate with nitronate-π interactions, this report adds transamination to the repertoire of anion-π catalysis. Whereas bioinspired approaches to transamination with pyridoxalphosphate appeared less obvious in this context, the base-catalyzed isomerisation of trifluoromethylimines contains suitable anionic transition states. Run on increasingly π-acidic aromatic surfaces in covalent and supramolecular trifunctional systems, we find that both rate and enantioselectivity of this reaction increase. These results support that anion-π interactions with 2-azaallyl anion intermediates catalyse the isomerisation of trifluoromethylimines by cumulative asymmetric umpolung on π-acidic surfaces.

description: Resting cells of Pseudomonas stutzeri DEH130 were found to act as biocatalysts to convert 2-hydroxybutyrate (2-HB) into 2-ketobutyrate (2-KA). Two different catalysis mechanisms of 2-KA formation were present in the cells, which were induced by glycolate (GA), and DL-lactate (DL-LA), respectively. The productivity number of 6.52 mmol g−1 cells h−1 was obtained when DL-LA was the sole carbon source and was the highest ever reported.
