为了研究沥青混合料的强度参数和断裂性能,在边界效应理论基础上,预制切口偏中距离的影响,引入等效峰值载荷换算公式,得到了 一种改进边界效应模型.在5℃的条件下开展了不同偏中距离的三点弯曲试件AC-13级配沥青混合料断裂试验,采用扩展有限元法对同样尺寸的三点弯曲试件进行了模拟,通过载荷位移曲线验证了数值模型的可靠性.将试验与数值模拟获得的峰值载荷代入到改进模型推导了沥青混合料的抗拉强度和断裂韧度,最后利用模型结果反演拟合得到偏中距离对峰值载荷的影响曲线.结果表明,本研究模型推导和反演结果均与试验结果接近,证明改进边界效应模型不仅克服了原有模型无法应用在复合型断裂试件的局限性,还为沥青混合料的弹脆性断裂性能确定提供了 一种预测方法.
In order to study the factors affecting cutting efficiency of shield tunneling in sandy cobble formation, relying on the tunnel project of Shenyang Metro Line 9, numerical simulation analysis is carried out on the combination of advance knife and scraper knife for sand cobble formation, the effects of penetration, cutter head speed and tool height difference on cutting efficiency of combined tool were studied.

为揭示岩石节理特征下滚刀滚压速度变化对破岩效率的影响,明确滚刀滚压速度与岩石节理特征共同变化下的岩石比能变化规律,采用ABAQUS有限元软件,选择花岗岩为研究对象,建立破岩模型,模拟滚刀滚压速度变化下的破岩过程,分析不同滚压速度与节理特征下滚动力的大小,以及比能变化趋势和破碎效果.试验结果表明:岩石节理间距一定时,滚压速度越大,滚刀所受平均滚动力越大,破岩比能越大;在滚压速度一定时,节理间距从120 mm增至200 mm时,破岩比能增大;岩石节理间距为120 mm时,比能变化平稳;固定岩石节理间距下,节理倾角变大,破岩比能呈现先增大后减小的趋势;当岩石节理间距与节理倾角一定时,滚压速度增大,滚刀平均滚动力增大,比能增大,破岩效率降低.滚刀滚压速度对节理岩石破碎效率有重要影响;节理特征对破碎效率有较大影响.
In Arabidopsis, phytochrome (phy) A, phyB, and cryptochrome 1 (cry1) are representative far-red, red, and blue light photoreceptors, respectively. Members of the SUPPRESSOR OF PHYA-105 (SPA) protein family (SPA1-SPA4) form E3 ubiquitin ligase complexes with CONSTITUTIVE PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1 (COP1), which mediates the degradation of photomorphogenesis-promoting factors to desensitize light signaling. SPA2 has been reported to promote seedling etiolation in the dark. However, the unique roles of SPA2 and its three functional domains in suppressing photomorphogenesis under different light conditions are largely unknown. Here, we demonstrate that overexpression of the full-length or the central coiled-coil and C-terminal WD-repeat domains of SPA2 cause hyper-etiolation phenotypes under several light conditions. The SPA2 central coiled-coil and C-terminal WD-repeat domains are necessary and sufficient for repressing seedling de-etiolation, cotyledon unfolding, and promoting hypocotyl negative gravitropism under several light conditions. Furthermore, phyA, phyB, cry1, and COP1 repress protein accumulation or nuclear translocation of SPA2 through direct interactions with its kinase-like and coiled-coil domains located in the N-terminus in response to far-red, red, and blue light treatments, respectively. Taken together, our results demonstrate that SPA2 functions under multiple light conditions; moreover, light-activated photoreceptors rapidly suppress SPA2 activity via direct interactions in response to different light treatments.

Chronic inflammation has become an integral part of man's suffering. Although the etiology of inflammatory diseases is still unclear, evidence shows that it is multifactorial involving several proinflammatory cytokines, chemokines, free radicals, and other regulators of the immune system. Environmental, genetic and epigenetic factors have also been shown to play key roles in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. Conventional drugs such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (DMARDs), glucocorticoids and biological agents are used to manage the symptoms but are unable to deal with the underlying causes. Also, they have many serious adverse reactions. To deal with this, many alternatives have been suggested and among them, plant-based secondary metabolites (SM) stands out. The aim of this review therefore, is to make an inventory of secondary metabolites of plants from Africa and China that are used to treat inflammatory diseases focusing on rheumatoid arthritis (RA), asthma and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Also, the possible mechanisms of these SM will be highlighted. Finally, active compounds isolated from these plants that regulate specific inflammatory mediators will be summarized. Keywords: Asthma, rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenes, traditional medicine.
Tarenflurbil (R-flurbiprofen) was acknowledged as a promising candidate in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapy. However, the Phase III study of tarenflurbil was extremely restricted by its poor delivery efficiency to the brain. To tackle this problem, the novel carriers for tarenflurbil, racemic flurbiprofen (FLU) derivatives (FLU-D1 and FLU-D2) modified by N,N-dimethylethanolamine-related structures were synthesized and characterized. These derivatives showed good safety level in vitro and they possessed much higher cellular uptake efficiency in brain endothelial cells than FLU did. More importantly, the uptake experiments suggested that they were internalized via active transport mechanisms. Biodistribution studies in rats also illustrated a remarkably enhanced accumulation of these derivatives in the brain. FLU-D2, the ester linkage form of these derivatives, achieved a higher brain-targeting efficiency. Its C-max and AUC(0-t) were enhanced by 12.09-fold and 4.61-fold, respectively compared with those of FLU. Additionally, it could be hydrolyzed by esterase in the brain to release the parent FLU, which might facilitate its therapeutic effect. These in vitro and in vivo results highlighted the improvement of the brain-targeted delivery of FLU by making use of N,N-dimethylethanolamine ligand, with which an active transport mechanism was involved.
BACKGROUND:Rhoptries are unique secretory/excretory organelles that are found exclusively in the Apicomplexa, and their contents are discharged at the time of invasion and are critical in the establishment of productive infection. Several rhoptry proteins have been identified in Toxoplasma gondii, Plasmodium falciparum and Neospora caninum and have been linked not only with the parasites' adhesion and invasion processes but also with their intracellular pathways. To date, only one Cryptosporidium parvum rhoptry protein candidate related to TgRON1 of T. gondii and PfASP of P. falciparum has been reported.METHODS:Subcellular fractionation of sporozoites was performed to obtain highly purified organelles. One-dimensional sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis followed by liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry was applied for fraction analysis, and 22 potential novel rhoptry proteins were detected by protein domain analysis using online softwares.RESULTS:Twenty-two potential novel rhoptry proteins were detected. A protein with T. gondii and N. caninum rhoptry protein homologs and some proteins with domains similar to that of T. gondii rhoptry proteins were identified.CONCLUSION:These novel candidate proteins may be considered targets for researching the invasion pathway of C. parvum and the pathogenic mechanisms of rhoptry proteins. The present work provides a starting point towards the elucidation of the repertoire and function of C. parvum rhoptry proteins.

Traditional DEA models have never considered the dynamics of the productive process and undesirable output simultaneously. This paper discovers a new network DEA model considering undesirable output and evaluates the efficiency of the Chinese 28 different manufacturing industries. Meanwhile, Malmquist TFP index is also applied to analyze the productive process. The empirical results indicate that: (a) Efficiency figures evaluated by new network DEA model are more accurate. (b) Low efficiency of industrial pollution solutions should be responsible for overall efficiency. (c) The general China’s industrial TFP gradually rises. However, it is just an alternative growth instead of a continuous one.
The present study was designed to illustrate variation of RNase P RNA (rnpB) gene of Mycoplasma spp. origin of swine. Partial rnpB gene of Mycoplasmasuis and M.parvum was amplified in PCR from 53 genomic DNAs extracted from pig blood samples, which had been identified as Mycoplasma spp. positive by 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis. The amplified products were cloned into pMD18-T vector for sequencing. The obtained sequences were compared with the sequence of rnpB gene of M. suis German isolate in GenBank (Accession number: EF523602). The phylogenetic tree was constructed based on nucleotide sequence of rnpB gene of different species using MEGA 5.0 software and the results of Mycoplasma species identification were compared with those of 16S rRNA assessment. Total 42 rnpB genes of different M. suis isolates and 11 rnpB genes of different M. parvum isolates were cloned and sequenced. Homology analysis showed that the nucleotide sequence identities were 98.1%-100.0% between M. suis rnpB gene of Shanghai isolates and German isolate, 91.0%between rnpB gene of M. parvum Shanghai isolates and German isolate and 90.0%-91.0%between M.parvum and M.suis Shanghai isolates. The rnpB genes of M.suis and M.parvum distributed in different clusters of phylogenetic tree, which was consistent with 16S rRNA gene assessment.

This study assessed the prevalence, species and subtypes of Cryptosporidium in goats from Guangdong Province, Hubei Province, Shandong Province, and Shanghai City of China. Six hundred and four fecal samples were collected from twelve goat farms, and the overall infection rate was 11.4% (69/604). Goats infected with Cryptosporidium were found in eleven farms across four provincial areas, and the infection rate ranged from 2.9% (1/35) to 25.0% (9/36). Three Cryptosporidium species were identified. Cryptosporidium xiaoi (45/69, 65.2%) was the dominant species, followed by C. parvum (14/69, 20.3%) and C. ubiquitum (10/69, 14.5%). The infection rate of Cryptosporidium spp. was varied with host age and goat kids were more susceptible to be infected than adult goats. Subtyping C. parvum and C. ubiquitum positive samples revealed C. parvum subtype IIdA19G1 and C. ubiquitum subtype XIIa were the most common subtypes. Other C. parvum subtypes were detected as well, such as IIaA14G2R1, IIaA15G1R1, IIaA15G2R1 and IIaA17G2R1. All of these subtypes have also been detected in humans, suggesting goats may be a potential source of zoonotic cryptosporidiosis. This was the first report of C. parvum subtypes IIaA14G2R1, IIaA15G1R1 and IIaA17G2R1 infecting in goats and the first molecular identification of C. parvum and its subtypes in Chinese goats.
