description: This study aimed to evaluate the ovicidal activity of the hydroalcoholic extract of Schinus terebinthifolia (SCH; T1) against Ancylostoma spp. and its influence of storage time in the extract stored for 36 months (T36). Eggs of Ancylostoma spp. were obtained from naturally parasitized dogs, and used for the larval hatchability test, where the eggs were exposed to T1 and T36 extracts of SCH (15–0.625 mg/mL). In T1, all concentrations inhibited more than 80% of the eggs, being 100% at concentrations between 15 and 5 mg/mL (p > 0.05). At T36, all concentrations were active, even the ones between 2.5 and 0.625 mg/mL, with 100% inhibition (p < 0.05), revealing that the storage time maintained the ovicidal action. By LC-MS, T36 presented ethyl gallate, myricitrin, and gallic acid as major compounds. These findings support the promising use of SCH extract as an ovicide against Ancylostoma spp., even stored for 36 months of shelf life.

description: In the present paper, we consider timelike general rotational surfaces in the Minkowski 4-space which are analogous to the general rotational surfaces in the Euclidean 4-space introduced by C. Moore. We study two types of such surfaces (with timelike and spacelike meridian curve, respectively) and describe analytically some of their basic geometric classes: flat timelike general rotational surfaces, timelike general rotational surfaces with flat normal connection, and timelike general rotational surfaces with non-zero constant mean curvature. We give explicitly all minimal timelike general rotational surfaces and all timelike general rotational surfaces with parallel normalized mean curvature vector field.

description: Despite ever increasing information on the importance of oceanographic processes for marine predators, movement ecology of higher trophic level species in tidal stream environments remains relatively under-studied. This represents a significant knowledge gap for certain species which spend large portions of their lives in these energetic habitats. In this thesis I show that a top predator, the harbour seal (Phoca vitulina), inhabiting one of the most tidally energetic regions in Europe, the Pentland Firth, shows a complex range of behaviours as a consequence of the strong current flows they are subjected to. Both horizontal movement and diving behaviour elucidate a degree of foraging plasticity, hitherto undocumented in a single population of harbour seals. I also demonstrate that, by using multiple perspectives of movement, researchers can better tease apart ecologically important areas for animals inhabiting these habitats. Given the importance of tidally energetic systems for harbour seals, I then go on to study the impact of tidal energy installations on their movements and physical fitness. Using telemetry data, I determine an overt avoidance response of the local population to an operational turbine array and demonstrate the effect this can have on our understanding of collision risk. To further augment our predictions of the population level effect of these devices, I then go on to demonstrate that not all collisions between seals and tidal turbine blades are likely to result in fatality. In combination, these results suggest that currently held views on the lethal effects of tidal turbines are overly-conservative, and the likely behavioural and physical responses to these devices may result in a more ecologically favourable outcome than previously assumed.

How does dysregulation of DNA sensing cause the autoinflammatory syndrome SAVI?
Creators: name: Kimble, Joshua
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2023

description: STING was initially thought to be an adaptor protein with its sole role dependent on pattern recognition receptor (PRR) detection of cytosolic double stranded DNA leading to IRF3 driven canonical pathway activation. However, more recent research demonstrates STING as a signalling hub also capable of activation downstream of DNA damage. DNA damage induces a proinflammatory noncanonical STING response primarily through NF-κB. NF-κB promotes DNA damage repair or cell senescence and clearing however, is associated with autoinflammatory diseases when unregulated. STING-associated vasculopathy with onset in infancy (SAVI) is a rare yet severe autoinflammatory disease initially thought to be caused by hyperactivation of the canonical STING pathway, but knockout of signalling components in mice with the disease did not change its severity or outcome. To investigate the signalling cascades responsible for hyperactivation of the innate immune system, STING-deficient human HaCaT keratinocytes have been reconstituted with the SAVI inducing STING V155M mutant. Analysis of these SAVI-STING cells revealed constitutive hyperactivation of proinflammatory cytokines such as CCL2, CCL20, and IL-6 that are primarily associated with the non-canonical STING pathway, and further activation upon etoposide-induced DNA damage. H-151 induced STING inhibition downregulated proinflammatory cytokine expression, confirming the STING V155M mutant was responsible for the proinflammatory signalling profile, providing insight into the pathophysiology of SAVI patients.

description: Diffusion rates are calculated on the basis of van Hove's formula for the dynamical structure factor (DSF) related to particle scattering at mobile adsorbates. The formula is evaluated quantum mechanically using eigenfunctions obtained from three dimensional realistic models for H/Pd(111) derived from first principle calculations. Results are compatible with experimental data for H/Ru(0001) and H/Pt(111), if one assumes that the total rate obtained from the DSF is the sum of a diffusion and a friction rate. A simple kinetic model to support this assumption is presented.

description: Androgenic alopecia is caused due to genetic disorders associated with the excess level of androgens. The progressive miniaturization of the hair follicles leads the terminal hair to vellus transformation. Dihydrotestosterone, an endogenous sex-linked hormone responsible for the growth of facial hair in males is derived from testosterone circulating in the blood by the action of 5α-reductase isoenzymes. The 5α-reductase1 is found in secretory regions of skin encompassing sebaceous glands and hair follicles. In silico screening of phytochemical inhibitors of 5α-reductase1 identified potential candidates for androgenic alopecia treatment. Further, the molecular docking simulation-based virtual screening of 110 phytochemicals was performed against human 5α-reductase1 to identify the potential lead molecules. The ADMET studies for the lead compounds were undertaken and the results showed that β-sitosterol, brassicasterol, and campesterol could be potential inhibitors of 5α-reductase1. Molecular dynamics simulations of protein-lead molecule complex revealed that, β-sitosterol and brassicasterol complex showed better stability with RMSD similar to raw protein. These compounds could be used as lead molecules in drug development for androgenic alopecia.

description: Stars in the mass range ~8 - 12 $M_{\odot }$ are the most numerous massive stars. This mass range is critical because it may lead to supernova (SN) explosion, so it is important for the production of heavy elements and the chemical evolution of the galaxy. We investigate the critical transition mass ($M_{up}$), which is the minimum initial stellar mass that attains the conditions for hydrostatic carbon burning. Stars of masses < $M_{up}$ evolve to the Asymptotic Giant Branch and then develop CO White Dwarfs, while stars of masses $\geqslant $ $M_{up}$ ignite carbon in a partially degenerate CO core and form electron degenerate ONe cores. These stars evolve to the Super AGB (SAGB) phase and either become progenitors of ONe White Dwarfs or eventually explode as electron-capture SN (EC-SN). We study the sensitivity of $M_{up}$ to the C-burning reaction rate and to the treatment of convective mixing. In particular, we show the effect of a recent determination of the $^{12}C+$ $^{12}C$ fusion rate, as well as the extension of the convective core during hydrogen and helium burning on $M_{up}$ in solar metallicity stars. We choose the 9$M_{\odot }$ model to show the detailed characteristics of the evolution with the new C-burning rate.

description: We develop a dynamical mean-field theory approach for the spiral magnetic order, changing to a local coordinate frame with preferable spin alignment along the $z$-axis, which can be considered with the impurity solvers treating the spin diagonal local Green's function. We furthermore solve the Bethe-Salpeter equations for nonuniform dynamic magnetic susceptibilities in the local coordinate frame. We apply this approach to describe the evolution of magnetic order with doping in the $t-t'$ Hubbard model with $t'=0.15$, which is appropriate for the description of the doped La$_2$CuO$_4$ high-temperature superconductor. We find that with doping the antiferromagnetic order changes to the $(Q,π)$ incommensurate one, and then to the paramagnetic phase. The spectral weight at the Fermi level is suppressed near half filling and continuously increases with doping. The dispersion of holes in the antiferromagnetic phase shows qualitative agreement with the results of the $t$-$J$ model consideration. In the incommensurate phase we find two branches of hole dispersions, one of which crosses the Fermi level. The resulting Fermi surface forms hole pockets. We also consider the dispersion of the magnetic excitations, obtained from the non-local dynamic magnetic susceptibilities. The transverse spin excitations are gapless, fulfilling the Goldstone theorem; in contrast to the mean-field approach the obtained magnetic state is found to be stable. The longitudinal excitations are characterized by a small gap, showing the rigidity of the spin excitations. For realistic hopping and interaction parameters we reproduce the experimentally measured spin-wave dispersion of La$_2$CuO$_4$.

description: We investigate exponential sums over those numbers $\leq x$ all of whose prime factors are $\leq y$. We prove fairly good minor arc estimates, valid whenever $\log^{3}x \leq y \leq x^{1/3}$. Then we prove sharp upper bounds for the $p$-th moment of (possibly weighted) sums, for any real $p > 2$ and $\log^{C(p)}x \leq y \leq x$. Our proof develops an argument of Bourgain, showing this can succeed without strong major arc information, and roughly speaking it would give sharp moment bounds and restriction estimates for any set sufficiently factorable relative to its density. By combining our bounds with major arc estimates of Drappeau, we obtain an asymptotic for the number of solutions of $a+b=c$ in $y$-smooth integers less than $x$, whenever $\log^{C}x \leq y \leq x$. Previously this was only known assuming the Generalised Riemann Hypothesis. Combining them with transference machinery of Green, we prove Roth's theorem for subsets of the $y$-smooth numbers, whenever $\log^{C}x \leq y \leq x$. This provides a deterministic set, of size $\approx x^{1-c}$, inside which Roth's theorem holds.

description: We examine the UV reprocessing efficiencies of warm dust and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) through an analysis of the mid- and far-infrared surface luminosity densities of 85 nearby H$α$-selected star-forming galaxies detected by the volume-limited KPNO International Spectroscopic Survey (KISS). Because H$α$ selection is not biased toward continuum-bright objects, the KISS sample spans a wide range in stellar masses ($10^8$-$10^{12}\rm{M}_\odot$), as well as H$α$ luminosity ($10^{39}$-$10^{43}\rm{ergs/s}$), mid-infrared 8.0$μ$m luminosity ($10^{41}$-$10^{44}\rm{ergs/s}$), and [Bw-R] color (-.1-2.2). We find that mid-infrared polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission in the Spitzer IRAC 8.0$μ$m band correlates with star formation, and that the efficiency with which galaxies reprocess UV energy into PAH emission depends on metallicity. We also find that the relationship between far-infrared luminosity in the Spitzer MIPS 24$μ$m band pass and H$α$-measured star-formation rate varies from galaxy to galaxy within our sample; we do not observe a metallicity dependence in this relationship. We use optical colors and established mass-to-light relationships to determine stellar masses for the KISS galaxies; we compare these masses to those of nearby galaxies as a confirmation that the volume-limited nature of KISS avoids strong biases. We also examine the relationship between IRAC 3.6$μ$m luminosity and galaxy stellar mass, and find a color-dependent correlation between the two.

description: When robots learn reward functions using high capacity models that take raw state directly as input, they need to both learn a representation for what matters in the task -- the task ``features" -- as well as how to combine these features into a single objective. If they try to do both at once from input designed to teach the full reward function, it is easy to end up with a representation that contains spurious correlations in the data, which fails to generalize to new settings. Instead, our ultimate goal is to enable robots to identify and isolate the causal features that people actually care about and use when they represent states and behavior. Our idea is that we can tune into this representation by asking users what behaviors they consider similar: behaviors will be similar if the features that matter are similar, even if low-level behavior is different; conversely, behaviors will be different if even one of the features that matter differs. This, in turn, is what enables the robot to disambiguate between what needs to go into the representation versus what is spurious, as well as what aspects of behavior can be compressed together versus not. The notion of learning representations based on similarity has a nice parallel in contrastive learning, a self-supervised representation learning technique that maps visually similar data points to similar embeddings, where similarity is defined by a designer through data augmentation heuristics. By contrast, in order to learn the representations that people use, so we can learn their preferences and objectives, we use their definition of similarity. In simulation as well as in a user study, we show that learning through such similarity queries leads to representations that, while far from perfect, are indeed more generalizable than self-supervised and task-input alternatives.

description: In this work, four alkaloids from the stem bark of T. catharinensis were isolated, namely: voacangine (1); ethyl apovincaminate (2); affinisine (3) and voachalotine (4). The alkaloids were tested in vitro for antiproliferative capacity in eight tumor cell lines: U251 (glioma), MCF-7 (breast), NCI-ADR/RES (drug resistant ovary), 786-0 (kidney), NCI-H460 (lung), HT-29 (colon), K562 (leukemia) and PC-3 (prostate) and a non-tumor keratinocyte cell line (HaCat). Antiproliferative activity was observed after 48 hours and results expressed as the concentration needed to induce 50% growth inhibition (GI50) in µM. The chemotherapy drug Doxorubicin was used as a standard. The alkaloid affinisine (3) was the most promising, showing moderate inhibition rates in addition to the cytotoxic and cytocidal effect against all strains tested. It also proved to be a very promising compound, showing high selectivity rates when compared to the non-tumor keratinocyte cell line (HaCat).

description: The solar coronal magnetic field produces solar activity, including extremely energetic solar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Knowledge of the structure and evolution of the magnetic field of the solar corona is important for investigating and understanding the origins of space weather. Although the coronal field remains difficult to measure directly, there is considerable interest in accurate modeling of magnetic fields in and around sunspot regions on the Sun using photospheric vector magnetograms as boundary data. In this work, we investigate effects of the size of the domain chosen for coronal magnetic field modeling on resulting model solution. We apply spherical Optimization procedure to vector magnetogram data of Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) onboard Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) with four Active Region observed on 09 March 2012 at 20:55UT. The results imply that quantities like magnetic flux density, electric current density and free magnetic energy density of ARs of interest are significantly different from the corresponding quantities obtained in the same region within the wider field of view. The difference is even more pronounced in the regions where there are connections to outside the domain.

description: Automated program repair (APR) faces the challenge of test overfitting, where generated patches pass validation tests but fail to generalize. Existing methods for patch assessment involve generating new tests or manual inspection, which can be time-consuming or biased. In this paper, we propose a novel technique, INVALIDATOR, to automatically assess the correctness of APR-generated patches via semantic and syntactic reasoning. INVALIDATOR leverages program invariants to reason about program semantics while also capturing program syntax through language semantics learned from a large code corpus using a pre-trained language model. Given a buggy program and the developer-patched program, INVALIDATOR infers likely invariants on both programs. Then, INVALIDATOR determines that an APR-generated patch overfits if: (1) it violates correct specifications or (2) maintains erroneous behaviors from the original buggy program. In case our approach fails to determine an overfitting patch based on invariants, INVALIDATOR utilizes a trained model from labeled patches to assess patch correctness based on program syntax. The benefit of INVALIDATOR is threefold. First, INVALIDATOR leverages both semantic and syntactic reasoning to enhance its discriminative capability. Second, INVALIDATOR does not require new test cases to be generated, but instead only relies on the current test suite and uses invariant inference to generalize program behaviors. Third, INVALIDATOR is fully automated. Experimental results demonstrate that INVALIDATOR outperforms existing methods in terms of Accuracy and F-measure, correctly identifying 79% of overfitting patches and detecting 23% more overfitting patches than the best baseline.

description: SLED is a crucial component for C-band microwave acceleration unit of SXFEL. To study the behavior of SLED (SLAC Energy Doubler), mathematic model is commonly built and analyzed. In this paper, a new method is proposed to build the model of SLED at SINAP. With this method, the parameters of the two cavities can be analyzed separately. Also it is suitable to study parameter optimization of SLED and analyze the effect from the parameters variations. Simulation results of our method are also presented.

Evaluation of the phase randomness of the light source in quantum key distribution systems with an attenuated laser

description: The phase randomized light is one of the key assumptions in the security proof of Bennett-Brassard 1984 (BB84) quantum key distribution (QKD) protocol implemented with an attenuated laser. Though the assumption has been believed to be satisfied for conventional systems, it should be reexamined for current high speed QKD systems. The phase correlation may be induced by the overlap of the optical pulses, the interval of which decreases as the clock frequency. The phase randomness was investigated experimentally by measuring the visibility of interference. An asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometer was used to observe the interference between adjacent pulses from a gain-switched distributed feedback laser diode driven at 10 GHz. Low visibility was observed when the minimum drive current was set far below the threshold, while the interference emerged when the minimum drive current was close to the threshold. Theoretical evaluation on the impact of the imperfect phase randomization provides target values for the visibility to guarantee the phase randomness. The experimental and theoretical results show that secure implementation of decoy BB84 protocol is achievable even for the 10-GHz clock frequency, by using the laser diode under proper operating conditions.

description: We present a new method to synthesize bulk indium nitride by means of a simple solid-state chemical reaction carried out under hydrostatic high pressure/high temperature conditions in a multi-anvil apparatus, not involving gases or solvents during the process. The reaction occurs between the binary oxide $In_2O_3$ and the highly reactive $Li_3N$ as nitrogen source, in powder form. The formation of the hexagonal phase of InN, occurring at 350 °C and P $\geq$ 3 GPa, was successfully confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction, with the presence of $Li_2O$ as unique byproduct. A simple washing process in weak acidic solution followed by centrifugation, allowed to obtain pure InN polycrystalline powders as precipitate. With an analogous procedure it was possible to obtain pure bulk GaN, from $Ga_2O_3$ and $Li_3N$ at T $\geq$ 600°C and P $\geq$ 2.5 GPa. These results point out, particularly for InN, a clean, and innovative way to produce significant quantities of one of the most promising nitrides in the field of electronics and energy technologies.

description: We address the fundamental difference between solid-solid and liquid-liquid phase transitions within the Ericksen's nonlinear elasticity paradigm. To highlight ideas, we consider the simplest nontrivial 2D problem and work with a prototypical two-phase Hadamard material which allows one to weaken the rigidity and explore the nature of solid-solid phase transitions in a ``near-liquid'' limit. In the language of calculus of variations we probe limits of quasiconvexity in an ``almost liquid'' solid by comparing the thresholds for cooperative (laminate based) and non-cooperative (inclusion based) nucleation. Using these two types of nucleation tests we obtain for our model material surprisingly tight two-sided bounds on the elastic binodal without directly computing the quasiconvex envelope.

Thermodynamical aspects of modified holographic dark energy model

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: We investigate the unified first law and the generalized second law in a modified holographic dark energy model. The thermodynamical analysis on the apparent horizon can work and the corresponding entropy formula is extracted from the systematic algorithm. The entropy correction term depends on the extra-dimension number of the brane as expected, but the interplay between the correction term and the extra dimensions is more complicated. With the unified first law of thermodynamics well-founded, the generalized second law of thermodynamics is discussed and it's found that the second law can be violated in certain circumstances. Particularly, if the number of the extra dimensions is larger than one, the generalized law of thermodynamics is always satisfied; otherwise, the validity of the second law can only be guaranteed with the Hubble radius greatly smaller than the crossover scale $r_c$ of the $5$-dimensional DGP model.

description: Present research delves in the isolation, extraction and identification of mycotoxins from ten corn samples collected from the northern province of Pakistan. Average concentration of aflatoxin B1 and B2 by HP-TLC found in all corn samples was 27.87 and 1.35 μg/kg, respectively. Following HP-TLC, detoxification of the identified and isolated mycotoxin was performed, which was analyzed by HPLC. Screening of mycoflora exhibited Aspergillus niger and Fusarium as the most dominant fungal strains. Aflatoxin B1 was physically detoxified under UV-Lamp and direct sunlight displaying detoxification percentage of 48% and 99%, respectively. Biological detoxification involved the use of botanicals such as neem leaves, garlic and ginger powder, which portrayed an approximate detoxification of 70% from corn samples. Current research concludes that the tested physical and biological methods can be easily adopted at field and storage rooms after the harvesting of crops to avoid fungal contamination and subsequent food spoilage.
