Despite growing interest and a recent surge in papers, the role of autophagy in glucose and lipid metabolism is unclear. We produced mice with skeletal muscle–specific deletion of Atg7 (encoding autophagy-related 7). Unexpectedly, these mice showed decreased fat mass and were protected from diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance; this phenotype was accompanied by increased fatty acid oxidation and browning of white adipose tissue (WAT) owing to induction of fibroblast growth factor 21 (Fgf21). Mitochondrial dysfunction induced by autophagy deficiency increased Fgf21 expression through induction of Atf4, a master regulator of the integrated stress response. Mitochondrial respiratory chain inhibitors also induced Fgf21 in an Atf4-dependent manner. We also observed induction of Fgf21, resistance to diet-induced obesity and amelioration of insulin resistance in mice with autophagy deficiency in the liver, another insulin target tissue. These findings suggest that autophagy deficiency and subsequent mitochondrial dysfunction promote Fgf21 expression, a hormone we consequently term a 'mitokine', and together these processes promote protection from diet-induced obesity and insulin resistance.

Corn silk extract (CSE) has been used as a traditional medicine for edema, cystitis, gout, kidney stones, nephritis, and prostatitis. Although CSE has been shown to be effective against oxidative stress and diabetes, the effects of CSE on peripheral edema are unclear. Therefore, in this study, the effects of CSE on carrageenan-induced peripheral edema in the hind paw of mice were examined. CSE administered orally for a week suppressed the formation of edema and inhibited the swelling of epidermis and the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the dermis. To explore the mechanism of the anti-inflammatory action, CSE was tested on the adhesion between monocytes and endothelial cells using THP-1 cells (a monocyte cell line) and human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). CSE inhibited the adhesion only when THP-1 cells were treated with CSE but not HUVECs. This finding suggests that CSE possibly influences the expressions of the membrane proteins of the monocyte involved in the adhesion with endothelial cells. Thus, CSE was treated for 24 hours and the expressions of CD11a, CD11b, CD18, CD49d and CD162 using its respective antibody and flowcytometry. Of these proteins, CD162, also known as P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1), was shown to be reduced in its expression. PSGL-1 is known to be required for the binding of inflammatory cells to intercellular adhesion molecules of endothelial cells. In conclusion, CSE may suppress inflammatory edema by inhibiting the binding of inflammatory cells to the vascular endothelium.

Background: Tuberculosis (TB) survivors have an increased risk of developing chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study assessed the risk of COPD development and COPD-related hospitalization in TB survivors compared to controls. Methods: We conducted a population-based cohort study of TB survivors and 1:1 age- and sex-matched controls using data from the Korean National Health Insurance Service database collected from 2010 to 2017. We compared the risk of COPD development and COPD-related hospitalization between TB survivors and controls. Results: Of the subjects, 9.6% developed COPD, and 2.8% experienced COPD-related hospitalization. TB survivors had significantly higher COPD incidence rates (36.7/1,000 vs. 18.8/1,000 person-years, P < 0.001) and COPD-related hospitalization (10.7/1,000 vs. 4.3/1,000 person-years, P < 0.001) than controls. Multivariable Cox regression analyses revealed higher risks of COPD development (adjusted hazard ratio [aHR], 1.63; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.54–1.73) and COPD-related hospitalization (aHR, 2.03; 95% CI, 1.81–2.27) in TB survivors. Among those who developed COPD, the hospitalization rate was higher in individuals with post-TB COPD compared to those with non-TB COPD (10.7/1,000 vs. 4.9/1,000 person-years, P < 0.001), showing an increased risk of COPD-related hospitalization (aHR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.17–2.92). Conclusion: TB survivors had higher risks of incident COPD and COPD-related hospitalization compared to controls. These results suggest that previous TB is an important COPD etiology associated with COPD-related hospitalization.
Switchable Composite Right/Left-Handed (S-CRLH) Transmission Line Using MEMS Switches
Taehee Jang,Sung-Hyun Hwang,Yong-Seung Bang,Jong-Man Kim,Yong-Kweon Kim,Chang-Wook Baek,Sungjoon Lim IEEE 2009 IEEE microwave and wireless components letters Vol.19 No.12
<P>This letter presents a novel switchable composite right/left-handed (S-CRLH) metamaterial transmission line (TL) using MEMS switches. The proposed TL is based on a general CRLH TL with switchable capacitors and switchable shunt inductive stubs. The LH mode of the S-CRLH TL ranges from 7.5 GHz to 10.4 GHz. In these frequencies, the S-CRLH TL is able to switch from a negative phase response (phase lag) to a positive phase response (phase lead), or vice versa. This phase modulation can be obtained through a voltage, due to the use of MEMS switches. The size of the fabricated S-CRLH TL, including bias networks, is 4941 mum times 2076 mum and is compact thanks to the LH mode.</P>

<P>A two-dimensional semi-analytical solution to analyse stream–aquifer interactions in a coastal aquifer where groundwater level responds to tidal effects is presented. The conceptual model considered is a two-dimensional subsurface system with stream and coastline boundaries at right angles. The dimensional and non-dimensional boundary value problems were solved for water level in the aquifer by successive application of Laplace and Fourier transform techniques, and the results were obtained by numerical inversion of the transformed solution. The solution was then verified by reducing the solutions to one-dimensional known problems and comparing the results with those from previous studies. Hypothetical examples were used to examine the characteristics of water-level variations due to the variations in stream stage and the fluctuations in tide level. Sensitivity analysis indicated that streambed leakance has no influence over the amplitude of groundwater fluctuations, but that the effect of stream stage increases with increasing leakance. Little difference was observed in the water level for different aquifer penetration ratios with narrow stream width. Increases in streambed leakance caused increases in the effect of aquifer penetration by the stream on the water level. An increased specific yield value resulted in decreased amplitude of water fluctuations and mean water level, and showed that water-level variations due to stream and tidal boundaries are sensitive to specific yield.
