Development of a novel immunoassay specific for mouse intact proinsulin (2015)

The blood concentration of intact proinsulin, but not total proinsulin, has been suggested to be a diagnostic marker for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), but a sensitive assay specific for rodent intact proinsulin is lacking. Here, a novel enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for mouse intact proinsulin was developed. The developed ELISA detected mouse intact proinsulin with the working range of 8.3 to 2700pg/ml. Cross-reactivity with mouse split-32,33 proinsulin was approximately 100times lower than the reactivity with mouse intact proinsulin, and no cross-reactivity with mouse insulin was detected. The developed ELISA was sufficiently sensitive to detect low levels of intact proinsulin in normal mouse plasma. The measurement by the developed ELISA revealed that intact proinsulin was elevated in the plasma of type 2 diabetic db/db mice as mice aged, and the ratio of intact proinsulin/insulin in plasma was correlated with levels of glycated hemoglobin A1c as seen in T2DM patients. These results suggest that the plasma level of intact proinsulin, but not total proinsulin, is a sensitive marker for pancreatic dysfunction and the ensuring diabetic disease progression of db/db mice. This ELISA could aid nonclinical evaluation of therapeutic interventions in T2DM.

Various microscopic models of hydrodynamics are introduced, existence of hyperbolic scaling limits is prroven including the derivation of the equations of nonlinear elastodynamics. Fairly deep results have been obtained on the 1/3 exponent scaling of asymmetric systems (subdiffusive behaviour of the tagged particle). In case of Erdős-Rényi-Barabási type self-organized systems the size of the graph components has been determined. Investigating the limit distribution of non-Markovian random walks, a considerable difference in the behavior of models with directed and non-directed bonds has been observed. Characterization of the point process of eigenvalues of random matrices was presented. Ergodic behavior of Sinai billiards and of more general dynamical systems has been described, discussion of recurrence and Brownian approximation of the planar Lorentz gas has been completed. Hausdorff dimension of attractors of iterated maps has been calculated, difference of random Cantor sets was also studied. Geometry of quantum mechanical and reliability of estimators for the state of quantum mechanical systems has been investigated. Algorithms for constrained estimation for n-level quantum systems have been introduced and investigated by computer simulations. Various methods of continuous optimalization and their effectiveness was also studied.

Imaging three-dimensional light propagation through periodic nanohole arrays using scanning aperture microscopy (2007)

The authors introduce a technique for three-dimensional (3D) imaging of the light transmitted through periodic nanoapertures using a scanning probe to perform optical sectioning microscopy. For a 4×4 nanohole array, the transmitted light displays intensity modulations along the propagation axis, with the maximum intensity occurring at 450 μm above the surface. The propagating fields show low divergence, suggesting a beaming effect induced by the array. At distances within 25 μm from the surface, they observe subwavelength confinement of light propagating from the individual nanoholes. Hence, this technique can potentially be used to map the 3D distribution of propagating light, with high spatial resolution.

Ruthenium Dispersion: A Key Parameter for the Stability of Supported Ruthenium Catalysts during Catalytic Supercritical Water Gasification (2015)

Abstract The catalytic supercritical water gasification of isopropanol (450 °C, 30 MPa) over Ru catalysts supported on carbon and metal oxides was performed in a fixed‐bed plug flow reactor. The Ru loading was between 1.2 and 2 %. The catalyst stability over a period of 50 h was in the order: Ru/C>Ru/ZrO 2 >Ru/Al 2 O 3 ≈Ru/TiO 2 . Considerable coke deposits were found on Ru/Al 2 O 3 and Ru/TiO 2 , which suggests that coke formation was responsible for the loss of activity, whereas the coke content was much lower on Ru/C and Ru/ZrO 2 , which confirms their better coking resistance. Clearly, Ru/C was the most stable catalyst as a loss of only 3 % of its initial activity was measured. The high Ru dispersion of Ru/C and Ru/ZrO 2 was beneficial for the improvement of the catalyst stability because of the higher gasification rate versus the coke formation rate.
High thermoelectric performance in (Bi0.25Sb0.75)2Te3 due to band convergence and improved by carrier concentration control (2017)

Bi 2 Te 3 has been recognized as an important cooling material for thermoelectric applications. Yet its thermoelectric performance could still be improved. Here we propose a band engineering strategy by optimizing the converging valence bands of Bi 2 Te 3 and Sb 2 Te 3 in the (Bi 1x Sb x ) 2 Te 3 system when x = 0.75. Band convergence successfully explains the sharp increase in density-of-states effective mass yet relatively constant mobility and optical band gap measurement. This band convergence picture guides the carrier concentration tuning for optimum thermoelectric performance. To synthesize homogeneous textured and optimally doped (Bi 0.25 Sb 0.75 ) 2 Te 3 , excess Te was chosen as the dopant. Uniform control of the optimized thermoelectric composition was achieved by zone-melting which utilizes separate solidus and liquidus compositions to obtain zT = 1.05 (at 300 K) without nanostructuring.
Comparison of the occurrence of mold infection among patients receiving chemotherapy for acute leukemia versus patients undergoing stem cell transplantation (2011)

dbRIP: A highly integrated database of retrotransposon insertion polymorphisms in humans (2006)

Retrotransposons constitute over 40% of the human genome and play important roles in the evolution of the genome. Since certain types of retrotransposons, particularly members of the Alu, L1, and SVA families, are still active, their recent and ongoing propagation generates a unique and important class of human genomic diversity/polymorphism (for the presence and absence of an insertion) with some elements known to cause genetic diseases. So far, over 2,300, 500, and 80 Alu, L1, and SVA insertions, respectively, have been reported to be polymorphic and many more are yet to be discovered. We present here the Database of Retrotransposon Insertion Polymorphisms (dbRIP; http://falcon.roswellpark.org:9090), a highly integrated and interactive database of human retrotransposon insertion polymorphisms (RIPs). dbRIP currently contains a nonredundant list of 1,625, 407, and 63 polymorphic Alu, L1, and SVA elements, respectively, or a total of 2,095 RIPs. In dbRIP, we deploy the utilities and annotated data of the genome browser developed at the University of California at Santa Cruz (UCSC) for user-friendly queries and integrative browsing of RIPs along with all other genome annotation information. Users can query the database by a variety of means and have access to the detailed information related to a RIP, including detailed insertion sequences and genotype data. dbRIP represents the first database providing comprehensive, integrative, and interactive compilation of RIP data, and it will be a useful resource for researchers working in the area of human genetics.
SU-GG-I-113: Image Deformation Based on a Marionette Model (2010)

Purpose: Adaptive radiation therapy is enabled by a deformation process that warps the planning image to images acquired daily throughout the treatment regimen. A new method of image deformation, proposed at ICCR 2010, emphasizes the anatomical significance of the results. Instead of allowing each image voxel to move in any direction, only a few anatomical motions are permissible. This work carries the idea forward with improvements to the model for weight loss. Method and Materials: The planning image and daily image are segmented automatically to label each voxel according to the tissue type represented. The differences between the segmentations are analyzed to generate a deformation field governed by six parameters. Deviations between the skin surfaces are attributed to weight loss, and are reconciled by expanding fatty tissue outward in a radial and elliptic fashion. This anatomically-constrained field is then used to initialize a free-form deformation that accounts for any motion not captured by the model. Results: The method was validated on 30 clinical head/neck datasets from three clinics where the daily images are megavoltage CT. The average processing time, for volumes with roughly 110 slices and 256×256 pixels per slice, is only 52 seconds on a standard PC, without any human interaction. We generated animations that gradually warp the daily image to the planning image, and the movies produced by the marionette method are noticeably more visually pleasing, owing to the anatomic integrity. The solution was observed by experts to address problems with distorted bones, the spinal cord leaving its cavity, muscle tissue leaking into nodal regions, and parotid gland issues near the periphery. Conclusion: Most of the changes observed across a course of treatment can be captured by a simple anatomical model. Using a model to initially constrain the deformation field can help mitigate deformation errors. Sponsored by TomoTherapy.

Photochemistry of Nitrogen Heterocycles and Their Metal Complexes. (1977)

Abstract : In the early phases of this study, investigations were made of the photochemistry of nitrogen heteroaromatic compounds, particularly molecules related to pyridine, quiniline, and acridine. Work with these compounds involved a variety of different types of studies but basically the main thrust was in identifying the photochemically reactive excited states and determining the relative importance of these states. The studies were extended to the quaternary salts of these complexes in which the presence of one or more positive charges gives rise to new reactivity not observed with the free bases. (Author)

Mesure de la densité de 'OH(X) par Absorption d'un Rayonnement UV Extérieur Auto-accordé (AREA) (1999)

La connaissance de l'évolution temporelle de la densité de certaines espèces transitoires dans une décharge est une donnée essentielle dans la compréhension des mécanismes réactionnels et dans l'optimisation de certains procédés plasmas. Les techniques mises en oeuvre pour mener à bien ces mesures sont souvent délicates. Elles font classiquement appel à des méthodes de diagnostics optiques telles que l'absorption laser [1, 2] ou la LIF [3, 4]. Nous présentons ici des mesures basées sur l'Absorption d'un Rayonnement UV Extérieur Auto-accordé (technique AREA). Cette technique a été développée à partir de plasmas atmosphériques créés par Décharges à Barrière Diélectrique impulsionnelles déclenchées (DBD) et a été appliquée à l'évaluation de la densité du radical hydroxyl dans son état fondamental 'OH(X). Cette étude s'inscrit dans le cadre du traitement plasma d'effluents gazeux toxiques par action d'espèces oxydantes.
Stimulation of<sup>36</sup>Cl<sup>−</sup>permeation in the in → out direction across the deiters' neuron membrane by GABA on its cytoplasmic side: Effect of different ionic conditions (1990)

The permeation of labelled Cl- ions across single plasma membranes microdissected from rabbit Deiters' neuron was studied in a microchamber system. In particular, we studied 36Cl- in----out permeation and its stimulation by 10(-6) M GABA on the cytoplasmic side under different ionic conditions on both sides of the membrane. Three main results were found: a) The GABA effect turns up at a cytoplasmic side [Cl-], 21 mM, in the range of the normal steady state intracellular Cl- concentration. It disappears both at tracer level of Cl- on the cytoplasmic side and when [Cl-] is high there (140 mM). b) The increase in ionic strength due to the equinormal substitution of monovalent anions (Cl- and acetate) with the trivalent impermeant anion citrate on both sides of the membrane erases the GABA effect even if Cl- is at the optimal cytoplasmic side concentration, 21 mM. c) Citrate ions reduce to the limit of significance the GABA effect even when they are only on the membrane extracellular side and [Cl-] is at the optimal level on the other side. These results confirm that GABA stimulated Cl- permeation in the in----out direction is via Cl- channels exposing positive charges at their cytoplasmic mouth. In addition, they point out that such GABA activated channels are endowed with a partial electrical positivity at their extracellular exit.
EXCRETION OF 4(5)-AMINO-5(4)-IMIDAZOLECARBOXAMIDE AND FORMIMINO-<scp>L</scp>-GLUTAMIC ACID IN FOLIC ACID AND VITAMIN B<sub>12</sub>DEFICIENT RATS (1965)

The excretion of 4(5)-amino-5(4)-imidazolecarboxamide (AIC) in the urines of normal rats, rats raised on a folic acid deficient diet, and rats raised on a vitamin B 12 deficient diet was measured. The AIC excretion was elevated 3-fold above normal in the B 12 deficient group and 1.5-fold above normal in the folic acid deficient group.No evidence could be found that the raised AIC excretion was associated with a block in the conversion of AIC to purines. The recovery of radioactive AIC in the urine after an intraperitoneal dose of 2 μmoles AIC per kg was not increased over normal in any of the deficient groups, and was significantly less than normal in the B 12 -deficient group. Most of the urinary radioactivity in all groups was in allantoin, uric acid, and purines.When a load of 220 μmoles of AIC per kg was administered there was no difference between the vitamin B 12 deficient and the normal groups in AIC recovery in the urine. When a load of 220 μmoles of urocanic acid per kg was administered, however, the B 12 -deficient group had an 18-fold increase over normal in Figlu excretion, and the folic acid deficient group a 17-fold increase. Thus, a substantial block in formimino-L-glutamic acid (Figlu) metabolism, but not in AIC metabolism, existed in the vitamin-deficient groups.Feeding a B 12 -deficient group a 2% methionine supplement reduced the Figlu excretion after a urocanic acid load to less than half that observed in B 12 -deficient groups without methionine supplementation, but had no influence on the AIC excretion.

Evolved genetic algorithms with fuzzy aggregation applied to priorities in logistic systems (2004)

This paper addresses the problem of optimizing the schedule of logistic processes using genetic algorithms and fuzzy decision making. We consider here the problem of dynamically assign components to orders and choose the solution that is able to deliver more orders at the correct date, respecting at the same time the priority degree of the orders. A compromise between these conflicting goals is achieved by using a genetic algorithm to optimize a fuzzy weighted function. The simulation results show that the proposed genetic algorithm evolved with fuzzy optimization presents good results for this type of problems.

Free Volume and Transport Properties of Barrier and Membrane Polymers (1999)

Ultrahigh permeability polymers are stiff chain glassy polymers that pack very poorly in the solid state, having high values of fractional free volume and a high degree of connectivity of free volume elements. High barrier materials are prepared from stiff chain glassy polymers that pack efficiently in the solid state, with low fractional free volume values. Manipulation of solid state chain packing changes permeability coefficients over many orders of magnitude. Control of chain chemistry and packing structure of stiff chain glassy polymers permits rational tailoring of permeation properties between those of high barriers and those of extremely permeable membranes via systematic manipulation of free volume and free volume distribution.
High-Mobility Group Box-1 in Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury of the Heart (2008)

HMGB1 plays a major role in the early event of I/R injury by binding to RAGE, resulting in the activation of proinflammatory pathways and enhanced myocardial injury. Therefore, blockage of HMGB1 might represent a novel therapeutic strategy in I/R injury.
Number and placement of control system components considering possible failures (1984)

One of the first questions facing the designer of the control system for a large space structure is how many components actuators and sensors - to specify and where to place them on the structure. This paper presents a methodology which is intended to assist the designer in making these choices. A measure of controllability is defined which is a quantitative indication of how well the system can be controlled with a given set of actuators. Similarly, a measure of observability is defined which is a quantitative indication of how well the system can be observed with a given set of sensors. Then the effect of component unreliability is introduced by computing the average expected degree of controllability (observability) over the operating lifetime of the system accounting for the likelihood of various combinations of component failures. The problem of component location is resolved by optimizing this performance measure over the admissible set of locations. The variation of this optimized performance measure with number of actuators (sensors) is helpful in deciding how many components to use.
The responses of <i>Anopheles gambiae</i>, and other mosquitoes in Burkina Faso, to CO<sub>2</sub>—the start of a search for synthetic human odour (1997)

When two odour-baited entry traps were placed side-by-side, one emitting just CO2 and one emitting the same concentration of CO2 plus human odour, the only mosquito species showing a ‘preference’ was Anopheles gambiae s.l., 66% of which chose the human odour. When the traps were placed about 20 m apart, CO2 alone caught less An. gambiae s.l., An. funestus and Mansonia uniformis (50%, 40% and 66% of the human-odour catches, respectively) but twice as many An. pharoensis. When CO2 doses were varied, all species gave similar dose-response curves hut the behaviour of each was seen to differ when the catches were compared with those on human bait. Anopheles arabiensis chose CO2-baited traps with a higher probability than An. gambiae s.s., supporting the theory that An. arabiensis is less anthropophilic.
