In recent years, aggregation-induced emission (AIE)-active materials have been emerging as a promising means for bioimaging and phototherapy. However, the majority of AIE luminogens (AIEgens) need to be encapsulated into versatile nanocomposites to improve their biocompatibility and tumor targeting. Herein, we prepared a tumor- and mitochondria-targeted protein nanocage by the fusion of human H-chain ferritin (HFtn) with a tumor homing and penetrating peptide LinTT1 using genetic engineering technology. The LinTT1-HFtn could serve as a nanocarrier to encapsulate AIEgens via a simple pH-driven disassembly/reassembly process, thereby fabricating the dual-targeting AIEgen-protein nanoparticles (NPs). The as designed NPs exhibited an improved hepatoblastoma-homing property and tumor penetrating ability, which is favorable for tumor-targeted fluorescence imaging. The NPs also presented a mitochondria-targeting ability, and efficiently generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) upon visible light irradiation, making them valuable for inducing efficient mitochondrial dysfunction and intrinsic apoptosis in cancer cells. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the NPs could provide the accurate tumor imaging and dramatic tumor growth inhibition with minimal side effects. Taken together, this study presents a facile and green approach for fabrication of tumor- and mitochondria-targeted AIEgen-protein NPs, which can serve as a promising strategy for imaging-guided photodynamic cancer therapy. AIE luminogens (AIEgens) show strong fluorescence and enhanced ROS generation in the aggregate state, which would facilitate the image-guided photodynamic therapy [12–14]. However, the major obstacles that hinder biological applications are their lack of hydrophilicity and selective targeting [15]. To address this issue, this study presents a facile and green approach for the fabrication of tumor‑ and mitochondria‑targeted AIEgen-protein nanoparticles via a simple disassembly/reassembly of the LinTT1 peptide-functionalized ferritin nanocage without any harmful chemicals or chemical modification. The targeting peptide-functionalized nanocage not only restricts the intramolecular motion of AIEgens leading to enhanced fluorescence and ROS production, but also confers good targeting to AIEgens.

As we known, reproducing kernel method (RKM) has been presented for solving differential equations for initial and boundary value problems. However, the direct application of the RKM presented in the previous works cannot produce good numerical results for Burgers’ equation. To solve this problem, this paper give a modified reproducing kernel method by piecewise technique. The exact solution is given by reproducing kernel functions in a series expansion form, the approximation solution is expressed by n-term summation of reproducing kernel functions. The three numerical experiments results show that the piecewise method is more easily implemented and effective. Some numerical results are also compared with the results obtained by other methods.

This paper research downhole temperature distribution in oil production and water injection using reproducing kernel Hilbert space method (RKHSM) for the first time. The aim of this paper is that using the highly accurate RKHSM can solve downhole temperature problems effectively. According to 2-D mathematical models of downhole temperature distribution, the analytical solution was given in a series expansion form and the approximate solution was expressed by n -term summation of reproducing kernel functions which initial and boundary conditions were selected properly. Numerical results of downhole temperature distribution with multiple pay zones, in which different radial distance and different injection–production conditions (such as injection rate, injection temperature, injection time, oil layer thickness), were carried out by mathematical 7.0, and numerical results correspond to general knowledge and show that use RKHSM to research downhole temperature distribution is feasible and effective.

Recently, the reproducing kernel Hilbert space methods(RKHSM) (see Wang et al (2011) [2]; Lin and Lin (2010) [3]; Wu and Li (2011) [4]; Zhou et al. (2009) [6]; Jiang and Chen (2014) [7]; Wang et al. (2010) [8]; Du and Cui (2008) [9]; Akram et al. (2013) [10]; Lü and Cui (2010) [11]; Wang et al. (2008) [12]; Yao and Lin (2009) [13]; Geng et al. (2014) [14] ; Arqub et al. (2013) [15]) emerged one after the other. But, a lot of difficult work should be done to deal with multi-point boundary value problems(BVPs). Our work is aimed at giving a new reproducing kernel method for multi-point BVPs. We do not put the homogenization conditions into the reproducing kernel space which can avoid to compute the reproducing kernel satisfying boundary conditions and the orthogonal system. Three numerical examples are studied to demonstrate the accuracy of the present method. Results obtained by our method indicate that new algorithm has the following advantages: small computational work, fast convergence speed and high precision. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Gray-Scott model is the representative bistable system in many reaction–diffusion models. Numerical simulation of this model is very difficult especially for space fractional case. In this paper, a novel numerical approach is introduced. We introduce the Runge–Kutta method for time discretization and Fourier transform for spatial discretization. The error has been reduced effectively by using Richardson Extrapolation. We perform stability and convergence analysis for the present method. Numerical experiments show that present method has low computational complexity and higher precision. Long time diffusion behavior of pattern can be observed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Abstract Heme oxygenase (HO-1), which may be induced by Cobaltic protoporphyrin IX chloride (CoPPIX) or Rosiglitazone (Ros), is a neuroprotective agent that effectively reduces ischemic stroke. Previous studies have shown that the neuroprotective mechanisms of HO-1 are related to JNK signaling. The expression of HO-1 protects cells from death through the JNK signaling pathway. This study aimed to ascertain whether the neuroprotective effect of HO-1 depends on the assembly of the MLK3-MKK7-JNK3 signaling module scaffolded by JIP1 and further influences the JNK signal transmission through HO-1. Prior to the ischemia-reperfusion experiment, CoPPIX was injected through the lateral ventricle for 5 consecutive days or Ros was administered via intraperitoneal administration in the week prior to transient ischemia. Our results demonstrated that HO-1 could inhibit the assembly of the MLK3-MKK7-JNK3 signaling module scaffolded by JIP1 and could ultimately diminish the phosphorylation of JNK3. Furthermore, the inhibition of JNK3 phosphorylation downregulated the level of p-c-Jun and elevated neuronal cell death in the CA1 of the hippocampus. Taken together, these findings suggested that HO-1 could ameliorate brain injury by regulating the MLK3-MKK7-JNK3 signaling module, which was scaffolded by JIP1 and JNK signaling during cerebral ischemia/reperfusion.

Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is a leading cause of learning and memory dysfunction. Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) has been shown to confer neuroprotection in various neurodegenerative diseases, including cerebral I/R-induced hippocampal CA1 injury. However, the underlying mechanisms have not been completely understood. In the present study, rats were pretreated with SAM/NaHS (SAM, an H 2 S agonist, and NaHS, an H 2 S donor) only or SAM/NaHS combined with CaM (an activator of CaMKII) prior to cerebral ischemia. The Morris water maze test demonstrated that SAM/NaHS could alleviate learning and memory impairment induced by cerebral I/R injury. Cresyl violet staining was used to show the survival of hippocampal CA1 pyramidal neurons. SAM/NaHS significantly increased the number of surviving cells, whereas CaM weakened the protection induced by SAM/NaHS. The immunohistochemistry results indicated that the number of Iba1-positive microglia significantly increased after cerebral I/R. Compared with the I/R group, the number of Iba1-positive microglia in the SAM/NaHS groups significantly decreased. Co-Immunoprecipitation and immunoblotting were conducted to demonstrate that SAM/NaHS suppressed the assembly of CaMKII with the ASK1-MKK3-p38 signal module after cerebral I/R, which decreased the phosphorylation of p38. In contrast, CaM significantly inhibited the effects of SAM/NaHS. Taken together, the results suggested that SAM/NaHS could suppress cerebral I/R injury by downregulating p38 phosphorylation via decreasing the assembly of CaMKII with the ASK1-MKK3-p38 signal module.
