Chloroplast Integrity and Biochemical Function (1965)

The experiments to be presented here are directly concerned with the importance of chloroplast integriity and function in photoreduction and photophos- phorylation. In an earlier conmmunication Not only is the outer membrane destroyed, but stromal grounid substaince is lost and the grana are disrupted and swollen. Less than 20 % of the grana remain in an intact con- figuration. Concon-mitant with this structural de- gradation is the loss of ability to incorporate C140, into carbohydrates and other products of photo- synthesis. When chloroplasts are isolated avoiding the use of salts and extensive dilution, a preparation is obtained in which the outer membrane is rupture(d and ground substance lost, but the grana appear to be intact. It is this semi-intact preparation that has been utilized as starting material in the experiments presented here.

Combustion mechanism of pulverized coal injected into blast furnace and its simulation (1995)

In order to understand the behaviour of pulverized coal injected into blast furnaces, direct observation of the combustion using high-speed camera was carried out. It was found that the combustion flame of pulverized coal was not uniform across the cross-section in blowpipe and tuyere. The flow pattern of pulverized coal particles governed by injection lance arrangement had a significant effect on combustibility. On the basis of these observations, an advanced simulation model taking the particle dispersion into account has been developed.
An indole-linked C8-deoxyguanosine nucleoside acts as a fluorescent reporter of Watson–Crick versus Hoogsteen base pairing (2010)

Pyrrole- and indole-linked C(8)-deoxyguanosine nucleosides act as fluorescent reporters of H-bonding specificity. Their fluorescence is quenched upon Watson-Crick H-bonding to dC, while Hoogsteen H-bonding to G enhances emission intensity. The indole-linked probe is ∼ 10-fold brighter and shows promise as a fluorescent reporter of Hoogsteen base pairing.
Distance-based weighted prediction for H.264 intra coding (2008)

Intra 4times4 is one of the two primary intra prediction types supported in H.264/AVC. For intra 4times4 prediction, eight modes are to capture orientations of images with DC mode to reflect flat regions. Therefore the smoothly-varying regions which are very common in ordinary images can not be well decorrelated. In this paper, to improve decorrelation performance of intra 4times4 prediction, we propose a distance-based weighted prediction (DWP) method to take the place of DC mode. In DWP, weighted prediction is performed with the weighting coefficients inversely relative to the distances between current pixel and its reference pixels. We also present an integral DWP (iDWP) method which is of much lower computational complexity than DWP. Experimental results demonstrate that DWP and iDWP yield average PSNR enhancements of 0.12 dB and 0.1 dB over current H.264 using 4times4 DC prediction respectively.
Quantum emitters in Flatland (2017)

Masticatory Muscle Myositis (1993)

This report examines a case of masticatory muscle myositis in a dog. Inflammatory disorders can affect the muscles of mastication. Two types of inflammatory myopathies have been described. The histopathology and immunochemical features of this case suggest an immune mediated basis for this disorder. The diagnosis and treatment are described for this immune mediated inflammatory myositis.
Characterization of the inhibitory effect of glucocorticoids on the DNA replication of adult rat hepatocytes growing at various cell densities (1989)

Dexamethasone inhibited the basal and EGF-stimulated DNA synthesis of adult rat hepatocytes in primary culture. The inhibition was glucocorticoid-specific: It was shown by dexamethasone and hydrocortisone, but not by progesterone, testosterone, or estradiol; and was counteracted by the glucocorticoid antagonist RU-38486 in a concentration-dependent manner. Dexamethasone acted by decreasing the rate of entry into S-phase (kG1/S), while cell cycle parameters were unaffected. The steroid was able to decrease the kG1/S severalfold even when added more than 20 hr after EGF, half-maximal effect occurring 11 hr after the addition of dexamethasone. Densely populated areas were much more sensitive to the inhibition by dexamethasone than sparsely populated areas within the same culture dish: A moderate (10 nM) concentration of dexamethasone nearly abolished the DNA synthesis in densely populated areas of hepatocyte cultures with only marginal effect on sparsely populated cells.
The Induction of Gene Mutations and Micronuclei by Oxiranes and Siloranes in Mammalian Cells in vitro (2004)

Oxiranes and siloranes are candidate molecules for the development of composite materials with low shrinkage. Since some of these molecules are highly reactive, they could lead to adverse biological effects from underlying genetic mechanisms. Therefore, we analyzed the formation of micronuclei (chromosomal aberrations) and the induction of gene mutations (HPRT assay) in mammalian cells. The numbers of micronuclei induced by the oxirane di(cyclohexene-epoxidemethyl)ether (Eth-Ep) at low concentrations (10 micro M) were about five-fold higher than controls. The related compound epoxy cyclohexyl methyl-epoxy cyclo-hexane carboxylate (Est-Ep) was less effective. The activity of diglycidylether of bisphenol A (BADGE) was even lower but similar to the most reactive silorane, di-3,4-epoxy cyclohexylmethyl-dimethyl-silane (DiMe-Sil). No induction of micronuclei was detected in the presence of a rat liver homogenate (S9). Est-Ep and Eth-Ep also induced gene mutations. Our analyses indicated low mutagenic potentials of siloranes; however, some oxiranes induced strong effects at two genetic endpoints.
Measurement of 25,26-dihydroxyvitamin D: importance of the configuration of the C-25 hydroxyl group (1984)

25,26-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 [25,26(OH)2D3] is chemically synthesized as two stereoisomers: 25(R),26(OH)2D3 and 25(S),26(OH)2D3. Both the R and S configurations have been claimed to be the natural form. Previous studies, however, have not considered the possibility that the stereochemical configuration of the C-25 hydroxyl group could affect the binding of 25,26(OH)2D3 to the rat serum binding protein used in assays for the measurement of this metabolite. In our study, a 50% displacement of radiolabeled 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 ([3H]25OHD3) from its initial binding is achieved with 325 fmol/mL 25(R),26(OH)2D3 and 850-1000 fmol/mL 25(S),26(OH)2D3--a difference in potency of approximately 3-fold. The potency of the R isomer in displacing [3H]25OHD3 was similar to that of 25OHD3 or 24(R),25(OH)2D3. When 25,26(OH)2D levels were measured in 12 normal subjects with both the R isomer and the S isomer as standards, the results were 625 +/- 360 fmol/mL 25(R),26(OH)2D3 equiv and 1800 +/- 1130 fmol/mL 25(S),26(OH)2D3 equiv. To determine which stereoisomer is biosynthesized, two types of experiments were performed. In the first, radiolabeled 25,26(OH)2D3 was biosynthesized from [3H]25OHD3 by using chick renal mitochondria and compared to [3H]25OHD3 as a ligand in the rat serum binding protein assay, which was used to measure 25OHD3, 25(R),26(OH)2D3, and 25(S),26(OH)2D3. Initial binding of radiolabeled 25OHD3 and 25,26(OH)2D3 to the binding protein was comparable, as was their displacement by the nonradioactive metabolites, indicating that chick renal mitochondria produce primarily 25(R),26(OH)2D3.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
The Extracellular Chaperone Clusterin in Aβ and Non‐Aβ Cerebral Amyloidoses (2022)

Clusterin, a multifunctional glycoprotein also known as apolipoprotein J, has been implicated in several physiological processes and is an important contributor to many pathological conditions, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in which genetic variants and plasma levels of the apolipoprotein were identified as risk factors for the disorder. To investigate whether clusterin exerted a more general role in the pathophysiology of cerebral amyloidoses, we turned to two unrelated hereditary conditions, familial British and Danish dementias (FBD and FDD), which share striking neuropathological similarities with AD, including neurofibrillary degeneration in limbic areas as well as parenchymal and vascular amyloid deposition. Two different 4 kDa molecules – ABri in FBD and ADan in FDD – totally unrelated to the 4 kDa Alzheimer’s Aβ, are the main constituents of the amyloid deposits in these forms of cerebral amyloidoses. Mirroring findings in AD, a panel of immunohistochemical studies demonstrated clusterin co‐localization with cerebral parenchymal and vascular amyloid deposits in both disorders. Ligand affinity chromatography with downstream Western blot and amino acid sequence analyses unequivocally identified clusterin as the major ABri‐ and ADan‐binding plasma protein. Solid‐phase enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assays highlighted a specific saturable binding of clusterin to ABri and ADan. Non‐linear regression analysis of the data revealed Kd values within the same low nanomolar range as those demonstrated for the clusterin‐Aβ interaction. Consistent with its reported chaperone activity, clusterin showed a modulatory effect on ABri, ADan, and Aβ aggregation/fibrillization properties evaluated using thioflavin T, a dye that displays enhanced fluorescence upon binding fibrillar and protofibrillar amyloid conformations. Our findings, together with the known multifunctional activity of clusterin and its modulatory activity on the complex cellular pathways leading to oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and the induction of cell death mechanisms – all known pathogenic features of protein folding disorders, including AD, FBD, and FDD – suggests the likelihood of a more complex role and a translational potential of clusterin in the amelioration/prevention of these pathogenic mechanisms.
ND5 is a hot-spot for multiple atypical mitochondrial DNA deletions in mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (2003)

Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalomyopathy (MNGIE) is an autosomal recessive multisystem disorder associated with depletion, multiple deletions and site-specific point mutations of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). MNGIE is caused by loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding thymidine phosphorylase (TP; endothelial cell growth factor 1). Deficiency of TP leads to dramatically elevated levels of circulating thymidine and deoxyuridine. The alterations of pyrimidine nucleoside metabolism are hypothesized to cause imbalances of mitochondrial nucleotide pools that, in turn, may cause somatic alterations of mtDNA. We have now identified five major forms of mtDNA deletions in the skeletal muscle of MNGIE patients. While direct repeats and imperfectly homologous sequences appear to mediate the formation of mtDNA deletions, the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenase 5 gene is a hot-spot for these rearrangements. A novel aspect of the mtDNA deletions in MNGIE is the presence of microdeletions at the imperfectly homologous breakpoints.

AC. eleganseIF4E-family member upregulates translation at elevated temperatures of mRNAs encoding MSH-5 and other meiotic crossover proteins (2010)

Caenorhabditis elegans expresses five family members of the translation initiation factor eIF4E whose individual physiological roles are only partially understood. We report a specific role for IFE-2 in a conserved temperature-sensitive meiotic process. ife-2 deletion mutants have severe temperature-sensitive chromosome-segregation defects. Mutant germ cells contain the normal six bivalents at diakinesis at 20 degrees C but 12 univalents at 25 degrees C, indicating a defect in crossover formation. Analysis of chromosome pairing in ife-2 mutants at the permissive and restrictive temperatures reveals no defects. The presence of RAD-51-marked early recombination intermediates and 12 well condensed univalents indicate that IFE-2 is not essential for formation of meiotic double-strand breaks or their repair through homologous recombination but is required for crossover formation. However, RAD-51 foci in ife-2 mutants persist into inappropriately late stages of meiotic prophase at 25 degrees C, similar to mutants defective in MSH-4/HIM-14 and MSH-5, which stabilize a critical intermediate in crossover formation. In wild-type worms, mRNAs for msh-4/him-14 and msh-5 shift from free messenger ribonucleoproteins to polysomes at 25 degrees C but not in ife-2 mutants, suggesting that IFE-2 translationally upregulates synthesis of MSH-4/HIM-14 and MSH-5 at elevated temperatures to stabilize Holliday junctions. This is confirmed by an IFE-2-dependent increase in MSH-5 protein levels.

Rheological behavior and mechanical properties of high‐density polyethylene blends with different molecular weights (2010)

Abstract The dynamic rheological and mechanical properties of the binary blends of two conventional high‐density polyethylenes [HDPEs; low molecular weight (LMW) and high molecular weight (HMW)] with distinct different weight‐average molecular weights were studied. The rheological results show that the rheological behavior of the blends departed from classical linear viscoelastic theory because of the polydispersity of the HDPEs that we used. Plots of the logarithm of the zero shear viscosity fitted by the Cross model versus the blend composition, Cole–Cole plots, Han curves, and master curves of the storage and loss moduli indicated the LMW/HMW blends of different compositions were miscible in the melt state. The tensile yield strength of the blends generally followed the linear additivity rule, whereas the elongation at break and impact strength were lower than those predicted by linear additivity; this suggested the incompatibility of the blends in solid state. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Determination of the Surface Concentration of Crown Ethers in Supported Lipid Membranes by Capacitance Measurements (1998)

The attachment of a tetradecyl chain to the ionophore 18-crown-6 leads to a stronger interaction with a supported lipid monolayer. Some C14-18-crown-6 mols. introduced in the aq. phase are incorporated in the phospholipid membrane. This process is used to produce ionophore contg. lipid monolayers of detd. compn. at the surface of an electrode. The ionophore content and the sensitivity to K+ of these layers are detd. by capacitance measurements. [on SciFinder (R)]
A Region ofPlasmodium falciparumAntigen Pfs25 That Is the Target of Highly Potent Transmission-Blocking Antibodies (2000)

Each of the four epidermal growth factor (EGF)-like domains of the Plasmodium falciparum sexual-stage antigen Pfs25 has been individually expressed as a yeast-secreted recombinant protein (yEGF1 through yEGF4). All four are recognized by the immune sera of animals and humans vaccinated with TBV25H (the corresponding yeast-secreted full-length recombinant form of Pfs25), with antibody titers to yEGF1 and yEGF2 weakly correlating with the ability of the sera to block the transmission of parasites to the mosquito host. All four proteins are poorly immunogenic in mice vaccinated with aluminum hydroxide-absorbed formulations. However, all four successfully primed the mice to mount an effective secondary antibody response after a single boost with TBV25H. Sera from mice vaccinated with yEGF2-TBV25H completely block the development of oocysts in mosquito midguts in membrane-feeding assays. Further, of the four proteins, only the depletion of antibodies to yEGF2 from the sera of rabbits vaccinated with TBV25H consistently abolished the ability of those sera to block oocyst development. Thus, antibodies to the second EGF-like domain of Pfs25 appear to mediate a very potent blocking activity, even at low titers. Vaccination strategies that target antibody response towards this domain may improve the efficacy of future transmission-blocking vaccines.

A study on the optomechanical tolerance model for lens assembly (2007)

Optomechanics is defined as the science or engineering of maintaining the proper shapes and positions of the functional elements in an optical system. At the optomechanical interface, manufacturing tolerances affect the shape and position of the surface in a lens system. Even very small variations will cause extra aberrations which degrade the optical performance of a lens system. The traditional approach to the optomechanical tolerance design is a top-down process. The optical designers typically designate the critical to quality parameters, such as tolerances of tilts, decenters, and locations of optical elements. A significant drawback of this top-down process is that the tolerances determined by optical designers do not take the real manufacturing and assembly process into consideration. As a result, some tolerances are too tight for the manufacturing, and the yield rate of the production is difficult to improve. The objective of this study is to develop a surface based optomechanical tolerance model that calculates the variation of the critical to quality parameters for a lens system. The distribution of these parameters can be treated as inputs to the optical design. Therefore, the optical performance will be predictable than the top-down approach, and the manufacturability of the optical system can be improved.
Internal Crack Initiation in High Cycle Fatigue for Ti-5 Al-2.5 Sn ELI Alloy at Cryogenic Temperatures (1989)

Internal crack initiation in high cycle fatigue at cryogenic temperatures has been investigated for Ti-5A1-2.5Sn ELI alloy. The fatigue crack initiation site changed from the sample surface to the sample interior at about 105 cycles. Neither defects nor foreign material was detected at the internal nucleation sites. However, the region of the nucleation site had a grain morphology and composition different from that of the bulk material. From observation it is concluded that internal cracks initiate in small a grain regions with a low Al content and an Fe enriched second phase at their grain boundaries. At maximum stress lower than three-quarters yield strength, where internal fatigue crack initiation occurred, dislocation pile-ups were primarily on prism planes and were blocked at the grain boundaries. The piled-up dislocations are believed to produce a high stress concentration in the small a grain regions. This stress concentration may provide a site for internal crack initiation. At higher maximum stress the dislocation pile-ups are more homogeneously distributed in the material and the dislocation arrays can pass through the grain boundaries. As a result, fatigue crack initiation must occur at the specimen surface.
Lithium-Ion Battery Charging Control Using a Coupled Electro-Thermal Model and Model Predictive Control (2020)

This paper presents a novel application of model predictive control (MPC) to the problem of managing lithium-ion cell performance using a highly accurate low-order electrothermal equivalent circuit model and is experimentally validated via laboratory experiments. The proposed method uses MPC to ensure compliance with cell-level operational limits and has the potential to extend lifetime by mitigating certain mechanisms of cell degradation leading to capacity fade. A five-state electrothermal model is developed, characterized and validated. Implementation employs an extended nonlinear Kalman filter for state estimation and MPC for controlling charge/discharge current. The complete method is experimentally validated using a 26650 cylindrical format lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) cell. The new method: (i) develops a fully coupled electro-thermal model of cell dynamics; (ii) incorporates a dynamic hysteresis model to improve accuracy; (iii) employs a nonlinear Kalman filter for accurate state estimation to inform the MPC algorithm; and (iv) utilizes a modified form of MPC which correctly models direct feed-through behavior to characterize ohmic resistance.
