We propose a three-dimensional computational model to simulate the transient deformation of suspended cancer cells flowing through a constricted microchannel. We model the cell as a liquid droplet enclosed by a viscoelastic membrane, and its nucleus as a smaller stiffer capsule. The cell deformation and its interaction with the suspending fluid are solved through a well-tested immersed boundary lattice Boltzmann method. To identify a minimal mechanical model that can quantitatively predict the transient cell deformation in a constricted channel, we conduct extensive parametric studies of the effects of the rheology of the cell membrane, cytoplasm and nucleus and compare the results with a recent experiment conducted on human leukaemia cells. We find that excellent agreement with the experiment can be achieved by employing a viscoelastic cell membrane model with the membrane viscosity depending on its mode of deformation (shear versus elongation). The cell nucleus limits the overall deformation of the whole cell, and its effect increases with the nucleus size. The present computational model may be used to guide the design of microfluidic devices to sort cancer cells, or to inversely infer cell mechanical properties from their flow-induced deformation.

HfTe3 single crystal undergoes a charge-density-wave (CDW) transition at TCDW = 93 K without the appearance of superconductivity (SC) down to 50 mK at ambient pressure. Here, we determined its CDW vector q = 0.91(1) a* + 0.27(1) c* via low-temperature transmission electron microscope and then performed comprehensive high-pressure transport measurements along three major crystallographic axes. Our results indicate that the superconducting pairing starts to occur within the quasi-one-dimensional (Q1D) -Te2-Te3- chain at 4–5 K but the phase coherence between the superconducting chains cannot be realized along either the b- or c-axis down to at least 1.4 K, giving rise to an extremely anisotropic SC rarely seen in real materials. We have discussed the prominent Q1D SC in pressurized HfTe3 in terms of the anisotropic Fermi surfaces arising from the unidirectional Te-5px electronic states and the local pairs formed along the -Te2-Te3- chains based on the first-principles electronic structure calculations.

Uniaxial tensile tests of GH3128 on a Gleeble-3800 thermal-mechanical physical simulation machine were carried out under the temperature and stress of 850°C, 900°C and 950°C, 50 MPa, 65 MPa, 80 MPa and 100 MPa, respectively. According to the test data, two creep constitutive equations based on strain-time creep model and Norton power law creep model were obtained. By comparing the calculated values of the two constitutive equations with the test values, it could be found that the calculated values based on the Norton power law creep formula are closer to the experimental values than those based on the strain-time creep formula. Therefore, the constitutive equation based on Norton power law creep model could be used to estimate the creep deformation of the material at high temperature and high stress during operation.

The authors report the conversion of conduction type from n-type to p-type in the Al-N co-doped ZnO thin films by using thermal annealing treatment under argon atmosphere. The samples were deposited on fused silica by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. X-ray diffraction measurements showed that ZnO thin films have (002)-preferred orientation and the lattice constant decreases with the increase of nitrogen partial pressure. The average optical transmittance of these films is over 80%. The hole density is around 1.58 × 1017 cm−3 with an annealing temperature of 700°C. After exposing the samples in air for 1 year, the conduction type remains p-type with only a slight decrease of hole density, which indicates that the p-type ZnO with Al-N co-dopants has good electrical stability.

Ti-10Fe-6Al alloy was rapidly solidified using single roller melt-spinning technique to obtain ribbons, which was developed and used for supercapacitor electrode materials for the first time through facile oxidation. After oxidation at 680 °C for 100 h, TiO2/Fe2O3/Al2O3 nanocomposite on Ti-10Fe-6Al alloy ribbons consisting of numerous nanoparticles with average diameter of 90 nm was formed, which directly served as current collectors. For Ti-10Fe-6Al alloy foils cut from alloy ingot, oxidation product also showed particle shape but the diameter was far larger than that on oxided Ti-10Fe-6Al alloy ribbons. The ribbon electrode exhibited excellent electrochemical performance with areal capacitance of 10,500 µF cm−2 at current density of 40 µA cm−2 as well as long-term cycling stability of about 79.9% capacitance enhancement after 5000 cycles.

In the present work, mesoporous NiCoO nanorod/graphene oxide (NiCoO/GO) composite was prepared by a facile and cost-effective hydrothermal method and meanwhile, N-doped graphene (N-G) was fabricated also by a hydrothermal synthesis process. NiCoO/GO composite and N-G were used as positive and negative electrodes for the supercapacitor, respectively, which all displayed excellent electrochemical performances. The NiCoO/GO composite electrode exhibited a high specific capacitance of 709.7 F g at a current density of 1 A g and excellent rate capability as well as good cycling performance with 84.7% capacitance retention at 6 A g after 3000 cycles. A high-voltage asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) was successfully fabricated using NiCoO/GO composite and N-G as the positive and negative electrodes, respectively, in 1 M KOH aqueous electrolyte. The ASC delivered a high energy density of 34.4 Wh kg at a power density of 800 W kg and still maintained 28 Wh kg at a power density of 8000 W kg. Furthermore, this ASC showed excellent cycling stability with 94.3% specific capacitance retained at 5 A g after 5000 cycles. The impressive results can be ascribed to the positive synergistic effects of the two electrodes. Evidently, our work provides useful information for assembling high-performance supercapacitor devices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, CuO/CoO nanoneedle arrays (CuO/CoO-NNAs) are vertically grown on nanoporous Cu/Co (NPs-Co/Cu) conductive substrate through a facile dealloying and oxidation method. Benefiting from their intriguing structural features, the NPs-Cu/Co alloy based CuO/CoO-NNAs hybrid possesses fascinating electrochemical performance as an integrated binder-free electrode for symmetric supercapacitors (SSCs). High areal capacitances of 0.21 F cm can be achieved at a current densities of 5 mA cm. Moreover, electrode has an excellent long-term cycling stability with 100% capacitance retention after 10000 cycles. A maximum of volumetric energy density (0.81 mW h cm) and volumetric power density (3 W cm) were achieved for the as-fabricated SSCs device. Therefore, the present work holds a great promise for future design and large-scale production of high volumetric energy density and volumetric energy density electrodes by dealloying and oxidation method for energy storage devices.

Synthesis of electrode materials with desirable morphology and size for supercapacitor applications is an important and challenging research topic. In this work, four types of CoO nanostructures, namely hexagonal-shaped nanosheets, nanoflake arrays, nanoflowers and oval-shaped nanospheres were synthesized via a facile in-situ dealloying method. Applied as electrode material for supercapacitiors, the CoO nanospheres achieves highest areal capacitance of 16.58 F cm at current density of 10 mA cm. The CoO nanoflowers exhibited promising capacitive properties and excellent retention. Its areal capacitance can reach 9.27 F cm at the current density of 10 mA cm and retain 98.5% of its initial capacitance at the current density of mA cm after 1000 charge-discharge cycles. This work could provide a deeper understanding of the morphology effect on the supercapacitive performance, and also suggests the importance of rational design and synthesis of electrode materials with desirable morphology and size for high performance supercapacitor applications.

NiCoS spheres with granular core were designed and fabricated via an easy two-step hydrothermal reation: carbon sphere clusters were used as templates to obtain NiCo(OH)/C precursor, which reacted with sodium sulfide to synthesize granular NiCoS and then, the precursor of NiCoS was grown on the periphery of granular NiCoS to form the unique structure. The NiCoS spheres with granular core specific surface area reaches 26.61 m g, which is about twofold of granular NiCoS (11.41 m g). Electrochemical performance of the electrodes has been investigated. The electrode of NiCoS spheres with granular core displays high specific capacitance of 1156 F g at a current density of 1 A g, which increases by 71% compared to that of granular NiCoS (675 F g). Upon 1000 charge/discharge cycles, the NiCoS spheres with granular core electrode exhibits excellent cycling stability with 82% capacitance retention at 5 A g. In view of the low cost and superior electrochemical performance, the NiCoS spheres with granular core synthesized using carbon sphere clusters as templates could be a promising electrode material for supercapacitors.

Intraductal oncocytic papillary neoplasm (IOPN) of the pancreas is classified as a variant of intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm (IPMN) in the WHO guidelines. However, the neoplastic cells of IOPNs are unique, with distinctive architecture/oncocytic cytoplasm. Although molecular/immunohistochemical features of other IPMN variants have been extensively studied, those of IOPNs have not been well characterized. Expression profile of antibodies associated with genetic alterations previously described for ductal adenocarcinomas (DAs) and IPMNs (SMAD4/β-catenin/p53/mesothelin/claudin-4) as well as antibodies to mucins and differentiation markers [MUC1/MUC2/MUC5AC/MUC6/CDX2/hepatocyte paraffin-1 (HepPar-1)] was investigated in 24 IOPNs and 22 IPMNs to assess the similarities/differences between these tumors. Expression of mesothelin and claudin-4 was dissimilar between these tumor types: A higher proportion of IOPNs labeled with mesothelin [21/24 (87.5 %) of IOPNs, 6/22 (27 %) of IPMNs, p < 0.001], while the reverse was true for claudin-4 [2/23 (9 %) of IOPNs, 9/22 (41 %) of IPMNs, p = 0.01]. The results of immunolabeling for SMAD4/β-catenin/p53 were similar in both: None of the cases showed SMAD4 loss in the intraductal components, and only 1/21 (5 %) of IOPNs and 2/22 (9 %) of IPMNs revealed abnormal β-catenin expression (p = 0.49). Nuclear p53 accumulation was seen mostly in architecturally complex/high-grade dysplasia areas in both. Immunolabeling for MUC proteins showed that almost all lesions expressed MUC5AC. Twelve of the 24 (50 %) IOPNs and 6/22 (27 %) of IPMNs (p = 0.11) labeled for MUC1, whereas 7/24 (29 %) of IOPNs and 10/22 (45 %) of IPMNs labeled for MUC2 (p = 0.25). MUC6 was expressed in 8/9 (89 %) of IOPNs (strong) and 6/21 (29 %) of IPMNs (weak) (p = 0.002). Fourteen of the 23 (61 %) IOPNs and 4/22 (18 %) of IPMNs labeled for HepPar-1 (p = 0.003). These results show that IOPNs have distinct immunoprofile and provide support for the proposition that IOPN is a distinct entity developing through a mechanism different from other pancreatic ductal neoplasms.

Two difficult situations often occur in the final results of engineering design optimization problems, i.e., final results yielding (1) violated constraints, or (2) no active constraints. In order to avoid these situations, this paper proposes an adaptive approach of dynamically adjusting constraint bounds to address constraint satisfaction issues. Based on the ratio of the true value of the constraint obtained by the analytical formula or finite element analysis, to the corresponding constraint bound used in the current iteration, a new constraint bound is computed and updated automatically for next iteration. By means of controlling the iterative process, this approach is able to make all constraints satisfied at the optimum point. It is implemented successfully and robustly into structural topology optimization problems with a displacement constraint. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The objective and constraint functions related to structural optimization designs are classified into economic and performance indexes in this paper. The influences of their different roles in model construction of structural topology optimization are also discussed. Furthermore, two structural topology optimization models, optimizing a performance index under the limitation of an economic index, represented by the minimum compliance with a volume constraint (MCVC) model, and optimizing an economic index under the limitation of a performance index, represented by the minimum weight with a displacement constraint (MWDC) model, are presented. Based on a comparison of numerical example results, the conclusions can be summarized as follows: (1) under the same external loading and displacement performance conditions, the results of the MWDC model are almost equal to those of the MCVC model; (2) the MWDC model overcomes the difficulties and shortcomings of the MCVC model; this makes the MWDC model more feasible in model construction; (3) constructing a model of minimizing an economic index under the limitations of performance indexes is better at meeting the needs of practical engineering problems and completely satisfies safety and economic requirements in mechanical engineering, which have remained unchanged since the early days of mechanical engineering. Graphical abstract: Economic and structural performance indexes play different roles in the model construction of structural topology optimization. A comparison of MCVC and MWDC models indicates that a minimum economic index with performance constraints should be chosen for practical engineering problems regarding the requirements of safety and economy.[Figure not available: see fulltext.] [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, a method was demonstrated to reduce the dislocation density of GaN film grown by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) on an in situ selective hydrogen-etched GaN/sapphire template. The dislocations regions were etched by hydrogen to form cavities. The porous structure was formed on the GaN template grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition after in situ hydrogen etching. The etching condition was optimized by modulating the etching temperature, pressure, and etching time. Two-step buffer layer growth and high temperature GaN film deposition were carried on the porous template. The growth parameters were optimized to keep the porous structure unfilled. The dislocations originally located in etched cavities could not propagate to the next layer grown by HVPE. Therefore, the dislocation density could be significantly reduced. High crystal quality of GaN is obtained with a low dislocation density. The full width at half-maximum FWHM of (002) is 35 arcs, and the FWHM of (102) is 48 arcs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

ZnO/MgO core-shell nanorod arrays were synthesized successfully by the hydrothermal growth method. Photoluminescence (PL) emission from the nanorods showed remarkable enhancement after the growth of the MgO layer. The ZnO/MgO core-shell nanorods are type-I heterostructures, the electrons and holes of which are both confined in the core of the nanorods, as a result, leading to the increase of the photoluminescence intensity in this system. In addition, another reason for the enhancement of PL emission was the deposition of MgO shell suppression of surface defects. In addition, the activation energy ( E) of 63 meV in the ZnO/MgO core-shell nanorods was obtained from temperature-dependent PL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Study design:The study was designed as a single-arm clinical trial.Objectives:To investigate the effect of detrusor botulinum toxin A (BoNTA) injection on urinary tract infection (UTI) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI).Setting:The study was performed in a national rehabilitation research center of China.Methods:Between September 2010 and May 2012, 41 male inpatients with neurogenic detrusor overactivity (NDO) caused by traumatic SCI, mean age 36.0±8.8 years, duration of SCI since inclusion 21.5±17.3 months, received an injection of 300 U BoNTA into detrusor. Before and 3 months after injection, each patient kept a bladder diary, underwent video-urodynamic investigation and urine culture. All UTIs occurring in the 6 months before and the 6 months after injection were recorded.Results:Before injection, the mean number of UTI over 6 months was 1.39±1.36. After injection, the mean significantly decreased to 0.78±0.96 (P=0.023). The mean maximum detrusor pressure during filling decreased significantly in the patients of detrusor overactivity (n=24) compared with patients of normo-active detrusor (n=17) after injection (35.4±12.2 vs 20.9±7.9 cmH2O, P=0.000), meantime, the decrease of UTI was significant in the former (1.29±1.21 vs 0.41±0.62 cmH2O, P=0.015) while no significant in the latter (1.46±1.47 vs 1.04±1.08, P=0.319).Conclusion:Detrusor BoNTA injection significantly decreased UTI in SCI patients with NDO. This effect seems to be related to the decrease of detrusor pressure. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This study was performed to examine the effect of chronic renal impairment and renin-angiotensin system (RAS) activation induced by unilateral nephrectomy (UNX) on the development of pancreatic islet β-cell deficit and glucose intolerance. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into three groups: untreated UNX ( n = 10), UNX treated with the angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor lisinopril ( n = 8) and sham operation ( n = 10). Blood glucose, serum insulin, renal function and histological changes of kidney and pancreas were examined 8 months postoperation. Compared with the sham rats, UNX rats developed renal impairment, insulin deficiency and glucose intolerance. Histological staining revealed an islet β-cell deficit associated with increased immunoreactivity for angiotensin and angiotensin type 1 receptor in UNX rats. Treatment with lisinopril significantly improved renal dysfunction, hyperglycemia, insulin secretion and islet RAS expression. These data suggest that chronic renal impairment and RAS activation may contribute to islet β-cell loss and glucose intolerance. RAS blockade may therefore prevent these disorders.

The n-GaN films grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) are etched in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) reactor chamber. Atomic-force microscopy (AFM) characterization shows an increase of the surface roughness after the etching. Furthermore, Hall measurement and photoluminescence (PL) spectra highlight deterioration of the electrical and optical properties, respectively. Attempts to recover the damage are carried out by nitrogen plasma treatments accompanied by thermal annealing at the growth temperature in a molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) chamber. Improved electrical and optical properties compared with those of the as-etched GaN, evidenced in both Hall and PL measurements, show a pronounced decrease of the damage introduced by the ICP etching.

CoAA is an RRM-containing transcriptional coactivator that stimulates transcriptional activation and regulates alternative splicing. We show that the CoAA gene is amplified at the chromosome 11q13 locus in a subset of primary human cancers including non-small cell lung carcinoma, squamous cell skin carcinoma and lymphoma. Analysis of 42 primary tumors suggests that CoAA amplifies independently from the CCND1 locus. Detailed mapping of three CoAA amplicons reveals that the amplified CoAA gene is consistently located at the 5′ boundaries of the amplicons. The CoAA coding and basal promoter sequences are retained within the amplicons but upstream silencing sequences are lost. CoAA protein is overexpressed in tumors containing the amplified CoAA gene. RNA dot blot analysis of 100 cases of primary tumors suggests elevated CoAA mRNA expression. CoAA positively regulates its own basal promoter in transfection assays. Thus, gene amplification, loss of silencing sequence and positive feedback regulation may lead to drastic upregulation of CoAA protein. CoAA has transforming activities when tested in soft agar assays, and CoAA is homologous to oncoproteins EWS and TLS, which regulate alternative splicing. These data imply that CoAA may share a similar oncogenic mechanism with oncogene EWS and that CoAA deregulation may alter the alternative splicing of target genes.Oncogene (2007) 26, 822–835. doi:10.1038/sj.onc.1209847; published online 31 July 2006 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Staphylococcus enterotoxin A (SEA) is a powerful immunostimulant, which can stimulate T cells bearing certain T-cell receptor β-chain variable regions, when bound to major histocompatibility complex II molecules. In vivo administration of intact superantigen in sufficient therapeutic amounts risks unwanted cytotoxicity against normal cells. In this study, we used SEA fused with CD80 transmembrane region (named as SEAtm) driven by α-fetoprotein (AFP) enhancer/promoter to reduce toxicity and to improve safety and efficiency in the application of SEA. We demonstrated that SEAtm by adenovirus from the AFP enhancer/promoter (AdAFPSEA) could be expressed on the surface of AFP-producing cell line Hepa1-6 instead of non-AFP-producing cell lines. Hepa1-6 infected by recombinant adenovirus stimulated proliferation of splenocytes and activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in vitro. After AdAFPSEA was injected into the subcutaneously established hepatoma in vivo, the expression of SEA was detected in tumor tissues, which subsequently induced tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells in spleen. Moreover, hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) xenografts were suppressed by treatment with AdAFPSEA and the survival time of treated mice was prolonged. These findings suggest that membrane-expressed SEA by adenovirus from AdAFPSEA can generate stronger local and systemic antitumor responses against HCC.Gene Therapy (2006) 13, 1603–1610. doi:10.1038/sj.gt.3302823; published online 20 July 2006 [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes an idea of curvilinear search for nonlinear programming. For the unconstrained and constrained problem, ordinary differential equations are derived to describe descending curves in which values of the objective function decrease. The strategy of the curvilinear search is to repeatedly perform a one-dimensional search at approximate descending curves. The curves are constructed by means of approximate analytical and numerical expressions that are investigated in the paper. The method is applied to solve the optimization problem of the truss structure. Computational results of examples show the efficiency of the method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The wilt disease of ginger, caused by various Fusarium species, imperils the cultivation of this valuable crop. However, the pathogenic mechanisms and epidemiology of ginger wilt remain elusive. Here, we investigate the association between ginger rhizome health and the prevalence of Fusarium conidia, as well as examine fungal community composition in symptomatic and asymptomatic ginger tissues. Our findings show that diseased rhizomes have reduced tissue firmness, correlating negatively with Fusarium conidia counts. Pathogenicity assays confirmed that both Fusarium oxysporum and Fusarium solani are capable of inducing wilt symptoms in rhizomes and sterile seedlings. Furthermore, Fungal community profiling revealed Fusarium to be the dominant taxon across all samples, yet its relative abundance was significantly different between symptomatic and asymptomatic tissues. Specifically, there is a higher incidence of Fusarium amplicon sequence variants (ASVs) in symptomatic above-ground parts. Our results unequivocally implicate F. oxysporum or F. solani as the etiological agents responsible for ginger wilt and demonstrate that Fusarium is the principal fungal pathogen associated with this disease. These findings provide critical insights for efficacious disease management practices within the ginger industry., (© 2024. The Author(s).)

Pathological complete response (pCR) serves as a critical measure of the success of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in breast cancer, directly influencing subsequent therapeutic decisions. With the continuous advancement of artificial intelligence, methods for early and accurate prediction of pCR are being extensively explored. In this study, we propose a cross-modal multi-pathway automated prediction model that integrates temporal and spatial information. This model fuses digital pathology images from biopsy specimens and multi-temporal ultrasound (US) images to predict pCR status early in NAC. The model demonstrates exceptional predictive efficacy. Our findings lay the foundation for developing personalized treatment paradigms based on individual responses. This approach has the potential to become a critical auxiliary tool for the early prediction of NAC response in breast cancer patients., (© 2024. The Author(s).)
