description: Three new compounds (1–3), including two bisamide derivatives (1 and 2) and a lignin (3), along with 15 known compounds were isolated from Aglaia odorata. Compound 2 was a pair of enantiomers and successfully resolved into the anticipated enantiomers. Their structures were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, electronic circular dichroism (ECD) calculations, and X-ray crystallography. Three compounds showed excellent inhibitory activities on α-glucosidase with IC50 values ranging from 54.48 to 240.88 μM, better than that of the positive control (acarbose, IC50 = 590.94 μM). Moreover, compounds 3, 13, and 15 presented moderate inhibitory activities against butyrylcholinesterase. Compound 17 exhibited potent PTP1B inhibitory activity with an IC50 value of 179.45 μM. Representative active compounds were performed for the molecular docking study. Herein, we described the isolation, structure elucidation, the inhibitory effects on three enzymes, and molecular docking of the isolates from the title plant.

 Diagnosis. Alloxysta victrix is mainly characterized by closed radial cell, presence of pronotal carinae, and absence of propodeal carinae. In Serbia and Montenegro it is similar to A. fuscicornis, but can be differentiated by (i) the size of radial cell, radial cell of A. victrix is longer (Fig. 9) than in A. fuscicornis (Fig. 13), and by (ii) the extent of propodeal pubescence (in A. victrix the propodeum lacks setae in the longitudinal area where the carinae are present in Charipinae, while A. fuscicornis has the propodeum completely covered with dense setae).

description: We study the renormalization of the quasiparticle properties in weak ferromagnetic metals, due to spin fluctuations, away from the quantum critical point for small magnetic moment. We explain the origin of the s-wave superconducting instability in the ferromagnetic phase and find that the vertex corrections are small and Migdal's theorem is satisfied away from the quantum critical point.

description: Deciding whether the results of two different mining algorithms provide significantly different information is an important, yet understudied, open problem in exploratory data mining. Whether the goal is to select the most informative result for analysis, or to decide which mining approach will most likely provide the most novel insight, it is essential that we can tell how different the information is that different results by possibly different methods provide. In this paper we take a first step towards comparing exploratory data mining results on binary data. We propose to meaningfully convert results into sets of noisy tiles, and compare between these sets by Maximum Entropy modelling and Kullback-Leibler divergence, well-founded notions from Information Theory. We so construct a measure that is highly flexible, and allows us to naturally include background knowledge, such that differences in results can be measured from the perspective of what a user already knows. Furthermore, adding to its interpretability, it coincides with Jaccard dissimilarity when we only consider exact tiles. Our approach provides a means to study and tell differences between results of different exploratory data mining methods. As an application, we show that our measure can also be used to identify which parts of results best redescribe other results. Furthermore, we study its use for iterative data mining, where one iteratively wants to find that result that will provide maximal novel information. Experimental evaluation shows our measure gives meaningful results, correctly identifies methods that are similar in nature, automatically provides sound redescriptions of results, and is highly applicable for iterative data mining.

description: A non-linear Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation for the gauge boson propagator of massless QED in one time and two spatial dimensions is studied. It is shown that the nonperturbative solution leads to a nontrivial renormalization-group infrared fixed point quantitatively close to the one found in the leading order of the 1/N expansion, with N the number of fermion flavors. In the gauged Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (GNJL) model an equation for the Yukawa vertex is solved in an approximation given by the one-photon exchange and an analytic expression is derived for the propagator of the scalar fermion-antifermion composites. Subsequently, the mass and width of the scalar composites near the phase transition line are calculated as functions of the four-fermion coupling g and flavor number N. The possible relevance of these results for describing particle-hole excitations, in particular antiferromagnetic correlations, observed in the underdoped cuprates, is briefly discussed.

description: Cancer is a heterogeneous disease that may differ significantly in the population. Patients with similar histopathology may show different clinical outcomes posing a great challenge for both diagnosis and therapy decisions. Studying transcriptomic data is expected to bring novel insights about the molecular mechanisms that underlie cancer formation and progression, hence improving the accuracy with which patients are stratified and treated.

Gene expression data from two distinct datasets were analysed: colorectal cancer data (TCGA) and colon normal tissue data (GTEx). Preliminary analyses were performed in both datasets, namely Principal Component Analysis (PCA), survival and differential gene expression analysis. Results show differences in gene expression and survival outcome between colon cancer patients in different stages of the disease. Also, when comparing normal with tumoral tissue, the most significant down-regulated and up-regulated genes were identified and interpreted from a biological and clinical point of view. Sparse Cox regression models further allow identifying genes associated with high/low survival risk.

Transcriptomics analysis now plays a key role in understanding biological processes involved in cancer and can support biomarker identification towards a more personalized medicine.

description: Psychological stress, which exerts detrimental effects on human reproduction, may compromise the meiotic competence of oocytes. Meiotic resumption, germinal vesicle breakdown (GVBD), is the first milestone to confer meiotic competence to oocytes. In the practice of assisted reproductive technology (ART), the timing for GVBD is associated with the rates of cleavage and blastocyst formation. However, whether chronic stress compromises oocyte competence by influencing GVBD and the underlying mechanisms are unclear. In the present study, a chronic restraint stress (CRS) mouse model was used to investigate the effects of stress on oocyte meiotic resumption, as well as the mechanisms. Following a 4-week chronic restraint stress in female mice, the percentage of abnormal bipolar spindles increased and indicated compromised oocyte competence in the CRS group. Furthermore, we identified a decreased percentage of GVBD and prolonged time of GVBD in the CRS mouse oocytes compared with the control group. CRS simultaneously reduced the expression of cyclin B1 (CCNB1), which represents a regulatory subunit of M-phase/mature promoting factor (MPF). However, MG132, an inhibitor of anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C), could rescue the prolonged time of GVBD and increase the expression level of CCNB1 of oocytes from the CRS mice. Collectively, our results demonstrated that stress disturbed meiotic resumption through APC/C-mediated CCNB1 degradation, thus providing a novel understanding for stress-related oocyte quality decline; moreover, it may provide a non-invasive approach to select high-quality gametes and novel targets for molecular therapy to treat stress-related female infertility.

description: We report velocity-resolved spectroscopy of infrared hydrogen recombination lines in the interacting region of the Antennae galaxies (NGC 4038/4039). It generally has been assumed that the active star formation found there is due to the interaction of the disks of the two galaxies and indeed two molecular cloud complexes, separated in velocity by $\sim$100 km s$^{-1}$, have been observed in the southern part of this region. Our measurements imply that the two cloud complexes are moving away from each other. This result poses interesting questions about the physical mechanisms leading to starbursts in Arp 244 and other interacting galaxies.

description: SIMPLE 2000 (Superheated Instrument for Massive ParticLE searches) will consist of an array of eight to sixteen large active mass ($\sim15$ g) Superheated Droplet Detectors(SDDs) to be installed in the new underground laboratory of Rustrel-Pays d'Apt. Several factors make of SDDs an attractive approach for the detection of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), namely their intrinsic insensitivity to minimum ionizing particles, high fluorine content, low cost and operation near ambient pressure and temperature. We comment here on the fabrication, calibration and already-competitive first limits from SIMPLE prototype SDDs, as well as on the expected immediate increase in sensitivity of the program, which aims at an exposure of $>$25 kg-day during the year 2000. The ability of modest-mass fluorine-rich detectors to explore regions of neutralino parameter space beyond the reach of the most ambitious cryogenic projects is pointed out.

description: Starting from Antonov's discovery that there is no maximum to the entropy of a gravitating system of point particles at fixed energy in a spherical box if the density contrast between centre and edge exceeds 709, we review progress in the understanding of gravitational thermodynamics. We pinpoint the error in the proof that all systems have positive specific heat and say when it can occur. We discuss the development of the thermal runaway in both the gravothermal catastrophe and its inverse. The energy range over which microcanonical ensembles have negative heat capacity is replaced by a first order phase transition in the corresponding canonical ensembles. We conjecture that all first order phase transitions may be viewed as caused by negative heat capacities of units within them. We find such units in the theory of ionisation, chemical dissociation and in the Van der Waals gas so these concepts are applicable outside the realm of stars, star clusters and black holes.

description: All positive helicity four-point gluon-graviton amplitudes in Einstein-Yang-Mills theory coupled to a dilaton and axion field are computed at the leading one-loop order using colour-kinematics duality. In particular, all relevant contributions in the gravitational and gauge coupling are established. This extends a previous generalized unitarity based computation beyond the leading terms in the gravitational coupling $κ$. The resulting purely rational expressions take very compact forms. The previously seen vanishing of the single-graviton-three-gluon amplitude at leading order in $κ$ is seen to be lifted at order $κ^{3}$.

description: A distributed nonsmooth robust resource allocation problem with cardinality constrained uncertainty is investigated in this paper. The global objective is consisted of local objectives, which are convex but nonsmooth. Each agent is constrained in its private convex set and has only the information of its corresponding local objective. The resource allocation condition is subject to the cardinality constrained uncertainty sets. By employing the duality theory of convex optimization, a dual problem of the robust resource allocation problem is presented. For solving this dual problem, a distributed primal-dual projected algorithm is proposed. Theoretically, the convergence analysis by using stability theory of differential inclusions is conducted. It shows that the algorithm can steer the multi-agent system to satisfy resource allocation condition at the optimal solution. In the end, a nontrivial simulation is shown and the results demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Electrodynamic Structure of an Outer Gap Accelerator: Location of the Gap and the Gamma-ray Emission from the Crab Pulsar

description: We investigate a stationary pair production cascade in the outer magnetosphere of a spinning neutron star. The charge depletion due to global flows of charged particles, causes a large electric field along the magnetic field lines. Migratory electrons and/or positrons are accelerated by this field to radiate curvature gamma-rays, some of which collide with the X-rays to materialize as pairs in the gap. The replenished charges partially screen the electric field, which is self-consistently solved together with the distribution functions of particles and gamma-rays. If no current is injected at neither of the boundaries of the accelerator, the gap is located around the conventional null surface, where the local Goldreich-Julian charge density vanishes. However, we first find that the gap position shifts outwards (or inwards) when particles are injected at the inner (or outer) boundary. Applying the theory to the Crab pulsar, we demonstrate that the pulsed TeV flux does not exceed the observational upper limit for moderate infrared photon density and that the gap should be located near to or outside of the conventional null surface so that the observed spectrum of pulsed GeV fluxes may be emitted via a curvature process. Some implications of the existence of a solution for a super Goldreich-Julian current are discussed.

In the quasi-one dimensional case we find that the tails of the distribution of wave-function amplitudes are described by the non-linear sigma-model. In two dimensions, the tails of the distribution function are consistent with a recent prediction based on a direct optimal fluctuation method.

description: We investigate the linearized equations of motion in three dimensional Born-Infeld gravity theory. Motivated by this model, we calculate the quasinormal modes of BTZ black hole solutions of parity-even gravity theories in three dimensions by using numerical methods. The results are classified in three families and they are so accurate such that it allows us to propose analytical form for the quasinormal frequencies. We find new quasinormal modes which have been missing in the literature of the analytical studies of three dimensional massive gravitons. These new modes do not have the known tower structure and they are purely imaginary for any value of the angular momenta. Considering the complete set of the quasinormal modes, we show that the BTZ black hole solutions are unstable for any value of the parameters of the theory. We confirm our numerical results by computing the new eigenmodes analytically at zero angular momentum.

description: Multiple vertical fracture sets, possibly combined with horizontal fine layering, produce an equivalent medium of monoclinic symmetry with a horizontal symmetry plane. Here, we show that multi component wide azimuth reflection data (combined with known vertical velocity or reflector depth) or multi-azimuth walkaway $VSP$ surveys provide enough information to invert for all but one anisotropic parameters of monoclinic media. To facilitate the inversion procedure, we introduce a Thomsen style parametrization that includes the vertical velocities of the $P$-wave and one of the split $S$ waves and a set of dimensionless anisotropic coefficients. This notation captures the combinations of the stiffnesses responsible for the normal moveout $(NMO)$ ellipses of all three pure modes. Our parameter-estimation algorithm, based on NMO equations valid for any strength of the anisotropy, is designed to obtain anisotropic parameters of monoclinic media by inverting the vertical velocities and NMO ellipses of the waves $P$, S$_1$ and S$_2$. A Dix type representation of the NMO velocity of mode-converted waves makes it possible to replace the pure shear modes in reflection surveys with the waves PS$_1$ and PS$_2$. Numerical tests show that our method yields stable estimates of all relevant parameters for both a single layer and a horizontally stratified monoclinic medium.

description: We allow for nonlinear effects in the likelihood analysis of peculiar velocities, and obtain ~35%-lower values for the cosmological density parameter and for the amplitude of mass-density fluctuations. The power spectrum in the linear regime is assumed to be of the flat LCDM model (h=0.65, n=1) with only Om_m free. Since the likelihood is driven by the nonlinear regime, we "break" the power spectrum at k_b=0.2 h/Mpc and fit a two-parameter power-law at k>k_b. This allows for an unbiased fit in the linear regime. Tests using improved mock catalogs demonstrate a reduced bias and a better fit. We find for the Mark III and SFI data Om_m=0.35+-0.09$ with sigma_8*Om_m^0.6=0.55+-0.10 (90% errors). When allowing deviations from \lcdm, we find an indication for a wiggle in the power spectrum in the form of an excess near k~0.05 and a deficiency at k~0.1 h/Mpc --- a "cold flow" which may be related to a feature indicated from redshift surveys and the second peak in the CMB anisotropy. A chi^2 test applied to principal modes demonstrates that the nonlinear procedure improves the goodness of fit. The Principal Component Analysis (PCA) helps identifying spatial features of the data and fine-tuning the theoretical and error models. We address the potential for optimal data compression using PCA.

description: We investigate the occurrence of singlet bound states in the Raman spectrum of dimerized spin 1/2 chains by Exact Diagonalization and Density Matrix Renormalization Group techniques. We predict that several bulk $δ$-peaks could be observed in pure systems. Furthermore, we show that new low energy lines arise from non-magnetic impurity doping. These features are interpreted in terms of soliton-antisoliton and soliton-impurity bound states respectively. Energies and spectral weights associated with these bound states are sensitive to lattice relaxation effects. Our results are discussed in the context of the inorganic spin-Peierls compound CuGeO$_3$ and quantitatively compared to recent Raman experiments.
Transient response of an electrolyte to a thermal quench

description: We study the transient response of an electrolytic cell subject to a small, suddenly applied temperature increase at one of its two bounding electrode surfaces. An inhomogeneous temperature profile then develops, causing, via the Soret effect, ionic rearrangements towards a state of polarized ionic charge density $q$ and local salt density $c$. For the case of equal cationic and anionic diffusivities, we derive analytical approximations to $q, c$, and the thermovoltage $V_{T}$ for early ($t\llτ_{T}$) and late ($t\ggτ_{T}$) times as compared to the relaxation time $τ_{T}$ of the temperature. We challenge the conventional wisdom that the typically large Lewis number, the ratio $a/D$ of thermal to ionic diffusivities, of most liquids implies a quickly reached steady-state temperature profile onto which ions relax slowly. Though true for the evolution of $c$, it turns out that $q$ (and $V_{T}$) can respond much faster. Particularly when the cell is much bigger than the Debye length, a significant portion of the transient response of the cell falls in the $t\llτ_{T}$ regime, for which our approximated $q$ (corroborated by numerics) exhibits a density wave that has not been discussed before in this context. For electrolytes with unequal ionic diffusivities, $V_{T}$ exhibits a two-step relaxation process, in agreement with experimental data of Bonetti et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 142, 244708 (2015)].

Nonlinear Outcome of Gravitational Instability in Cooling, Gaseous Disks

description: Thin, Keplerian accretion disks generically become gravitationally unstable at large radius. I investigate the nonlinear outcome of such instability in cool disks using razor-thin, local, numerical models. Cooling, characterized by a constant cooling time t_c, drives the instability. I show analytically that, if the disk can reach a steady state in which heating by dissipation of turbulence balances cooling, then the dimensionless angular momentum flux density α= ((9/4) γ(γ-1) Ωt_c)^{-1}. Numerical experiments show that: (1) if t_c \gtrsim 3Ω^{-1} then the disk reaches a steady, gravito-turbulent state in which Q \sim 1 and cooling is balanced by heating due to dissipation of turbulence; (2) if t_c \lesssim 3Ω^{-1}, then the disk fragments, possibly forming planets or stars; (3) in a steady, gravito-turbulent state, surface density structures have a characteristic physical scale \sim 64 G Σ/Ω^2 that is independent of the size of the computational domain.

description: The ability to perform semantic segmentation in real-time capable applications with limited hardware is of great importance. One such application is the interpretation of the visual bird's-eye view, which requires the semantic segmentation of the four omnidirectional camera images. In this paper, we present an efficient semantic segmentation that sets new standards in terms of runtime and hardware requirements. Our two main contributions are the decrease of the runtime by parallelizing the ArgMax layer and the reduction of hardware requirements by applying the channel pruning method to the ENet model.

description: Oxidative stress (OS) has been proposed to play a role in the development of EMs. Peroxiredoxins are a family of antioxidant proteins that exhibit peroxidase activity in a thioredoxin-dependent manner, protecting cells against OS. The Western blotting results showed that the relative expression of PRDX4 was significantly increased in ectopic endometria compared with the normal endometria of EMs-free (p < .05). The H2O2 concentration was also significantly higher in the ectopic endometrium. PRDX4 siRNA was transfected into primary ectopic endometrial stromal cells (EESCs). The viability of the transfected EESCs was measured by CCK-8 assay, and the results showed significantly decreased cell viability. Furthermore, the apoptosis rate and ROS generation in flow cytometry assays were significantly increased after the knockdown of PRDX4 expression (p < .05). Scratch assays and transwell assays revealed that decreased expression of PRDX4 mediated by siRNA inhibited EESC migration and invasion. In conclusion, these findings indicate the potential role of PRDX4 in the development of EMs and PRDX4 as a possible therapeutic target for EMs treatment.
On the inexistence of solitons in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar models

description: Three non-existence results are established for self-gravitating solitons in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar models, wherein the scalar field is, generically, non-minimally coupled to the Maxwell field via a scalar function $f(Φ)$. Firstly, a trivial Maxwell field is considered, which yields a consistent truncation of the full model. In this case, using a scaling (Derrick-type) argument, it is established that no stationary and axisymmetric self-gravitating scalar solitons exist, unless the scalar potential energy is somewhere negative in spacetime. This generalises previous results for the static and strictly stationary cases. Thus, rotation alone cannot support self-gravitating scalar solitons in this class of models. Secondly, constant sign couplings are considered. Generalising a previous argument by Heusler for electro-vacuum, it is established that no static self-gravitating electromagnetic-scalar solitons exist. Thus, a varying (but constant sign) electric permittivity alone cannot support static Einstein-Maxwell-scalar solitons. Finally, the second result is generalised for strictly stationary, but not necessarily static, spacetimes, using a Lichnerowicz-type argument, generalising previous results in models where the scalar and Maxwell fields are not directly coupled. The scope of validity of each of these results points out the possible paths to circumvent them, in order to obtain self-gravitating solitons in Einstein-Maxwell-scalar models.

Information theory explanation of the fluctuation theorem, maximum entropy production and self-organized criticality in non-equilibrium stationary states

description: Jaynes' information theory formalism of statistical mechanics is applied to the stationary states of open, non-equilibrium systems. The key result is the construction of the probability distribution for the underlying microscopic phase space trajectories. Three consequences of this result are then derived : the fluctuation theorem, the principle of maximum entropy production, and the emergence of self-organized criticality for flux-driven systems in the slowly-driven limit. The accumulating empirical evidence for these results lends support to Jaynes' formalism as a common predictive framework for equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical mechanics.

Kinetic energy spectra and flux in turbulent phase-separating symmetric binary-fluid mixtures

description: We conduct direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes (CHNS) equations to investigate the statistical properties of the turbulent phase-separating symmetric binary-fluid mixture. Turbulence causes an arrest of the phase-separation which leads to the formation of a statistically steady emulsion. We characterize turbulent velocity fluctuations in an emulsion for different values of the Reynolds number and the Weber number. Our scale-by-scale kinetic energy budget analysis shows that the interfacial terms in the CHNS provide an alternate route for the kinetic energy transfer. By studying the probability distribution function (PDF) of the energy dissipation rate, the vorticity magnitude, and the joint-PDF of the velocity-gradient invariants we show that the statistics of the turbulent fluctuations do not change with the Weber number.

description: Death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1) is a calcium/calmodulin (Ca2+/CaM)-dependent serine/threonine kinase that is abundantly expressed in the memory- and cognition-related brain areas. DAPK1 is associated with several pathological hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD); it is an attractive target for designing a novel DAPK1 inhibitor as an effective therapeutic treatment for AD. In the present study, we have used an integrated ligand-based and structure-based drug design method to identify DAPK1 inhibitors. The pharmacophoric features of compound 38 G (PDB ID 4TXC) were mapped, and the models were evaluated using enrichment factor (EF) and goodness of hit (GH) score. The selected models were used to screen Zinc 15 compounds library. The identified hits were passed through drug-likeliness and PAINS filtering. The docking study was performed in three steps to yield molecules with good binding energy and ligand-target interactions. Finally, three hits were obtained, that is, ZINC000020648330, ZINC000006755051 and ZINC000020650468, which were subjected to rigorous molecular dynamics simulation. All three hits exhibited optimal stability under simulated conditions and low predicted toxicity. Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma
