Harmonic decomposition of two particle angular correlations in Pb-Pb collisions at s_NN=2.76 TeV

ALICE Collaboration,Aamodt, K.,Abelev, B.,Abrahantes Quintana, A.,Adamova, D.,Adare, A.M.,Aggarwal, M.M.,Aglieri Rinella, G.,Agocs, A.G.,Agostinelli, A.,Aguilar Salazar, S.,Ahammed, Z.,Ahmad, N.,Ahmad North-Holland Pub. Co 2012 Physics letters: B Vol.708 No.3

Angular correlations between unidentified charged trigger (t) and associated (a) particles are measured by the ALICE experiment in Pb-Pb collisions at s<SUB>NN</SUB>=2.76 TeV for transverse momenta 0.25<p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t,a</SUP><15 GeV/c, where p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP>>p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>. The shapes of the pair correlation distributions are studied in a variety of collision centrality classes between 0 and 50% of the total hadronic cross section for particles in the pseudorapidity interval |η|<1.0. Distributions in relative azimuth Δφ=φ<SUP>t</SUP>-φ<SUP>a</SUP> are analyzed for |Δη|=|η<SUP>t</SUP>-η<SUP>a</SUP>|>0.8, and are referred to as ''long-range correlations''. Fourier components V<SUB>nΔ</SUB>≤cos(nΔφ)> are extracted from the long-range azimuthal correlation functions. If particle pairs are correlated to one another through their individual correlation to a common symmetry plane, then the pair anisotropy V<SUB>nΔ</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP>,p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>) is fully described in terms of single-particle anisotropies v<SUB>n</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB>) as V<SUB>nΔ</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP>,p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>)=v<SUB>n</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP>)v<SUB>n</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>). This expectation is tested for 1≤n≤5 by applying a global fit of all V<SUB>nΔ</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP>,p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>) to obtain the best values v<SUB>n</SUB>{GF}(p<SUB>T</SUB>). It is found that for 2≤n≤5, the fit agrees well with data up to p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP>~3-4 GeV/c, with a trend of increasing deviation as p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>t</SUP> and p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP> are increased or as collisions become more peripheral. This suggests that no pair correlation harmonic can be described over the full 0.25<p<SUB>T</SUB><15 GeV/c range using a single v<SUB>n</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB>) curve; such a description is however approximately possible for 2≤n≤5 when p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP><4 GeV/c. For the n=1 harmonic, however, a single v<SUB>1</SUB>(p<SUB>T</SUB>) curve is not obtained even within the reduced range p<SUB>T</SUB><SUP>a</SUP><4 GeV/c.

ALICE Collaboration,Abelev, B.,Adam, J.,Adamova, D.,Adare, A.M.,Aggarwal, M.M.,Aglieri Rinella, G.,Agocs, A.G.,Agostinelli, A.,Aguilar Salazar, S.,Ahammed, Z.,Ahmad, N.,Ahmad Masoodi, A.,Ahn, S.A.,Ahn North-Holland Pub. Co 2012 Physics letters: B Vol.718 No.2

The p<SUB>T</SUB>-differential inclusive production cross section of the prompt charm-strange meson D<SUB>s</SUB><SUP>+</SUP> in the rapidity range |y|<0.5 was measured in proton-proton collisions at s=7 TeV at the LHC using the ALICE detector. The analysis was performed on a data sample of 2.98x10<SUP>8</SUP> events collected with a minimum-bias trigger. The corresponding integrated luminosity is L<SUB>int</SUB>=4.8 nb<SUP>-1</SUP>. Reconstructing the decay D<SUB>s</SUB><SUP>+</SUP>→φπ<SUP>+</SUP>, with φ→K<SUP>-</SUP>K<SUP>+</SUP>, and its charge conjugate, about 480 D<SUB>s</SUB><SUP>+/-</SUP> mesons were counted, after selection cuts, in the transverse momentum range 2<p<SUB>T</SUB><12 GeV/c. The results are compared with predictions from models based on perturbative QCD. The ratios of the cross sections of four D meson species (namely D<SUP>0</SUP>, D<SUP>+</SUP>, D<SUP>@?+</SUP> and D<SUB>s</SUB><SUP>+</SUP>) were determined both as a function of p<SUB>T</SUB> and integrated over p<SUB>T</SUB> after extrapolating to full p<SUB>T</SUB> range, together with the strangeness suppression factor in charm fragmentation. The obtained values are found to be compatible within uncertainties with those measured by other experiments in e<SUP>+</SUP>e<SUP>-</SUP>, ep and pp interactions at various centre-of-mass energies.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>We present the first determination of the energy-dependent amplitudes of N<SUP>⁎</SUP> resonances extracted from their decay in KΛ pairs in p+p → <SUP> pK + </SUP> Λ reactions. A combined Partial Wave Analysis of seven data samples with exclusively reconstructed p+p → <SUP> pK + </SUP> Λ events measured by the COSY-TOF, DISTO, FOPI and HADES Collaborations in fixed target experiments at kinetic energies between 2.14 to 3.5 GeV is used to determine the amplitude of the resonant and non-resonant contributions into the associated strangeness final state. The contribution of seven N<SUP>⁎</SUP> resonances with masses between 1650 MeV/c<SUP>2</SUP> and 1900 MeV/c<SUP>2</SUP> for an excess energy between 0 and 600 MeV has been considered. The Σ–p cusp and final state interactions for the p–Λ channel are also included as coherent contributions in the PWA. The N<SUP>⁎</SUP> contribution is found to be dominant with respect to the phase space emission of the pK Λ + final state at all energies demonstrating the important role played by both N<SUP>⁎</SUP> and interference effects in hadron–hadron collisions.</P>

D -Meson Azimuthal Anisotropy in Midcentral Pb-Pb Collisions at sNN=5.02 TeV

Acharya, S.,Adamová,, D.,Adolfsson, J.,Aggarwal, M. M.,Aglieri Rinella, G.,Agnello, M.,Agrawal, N.,Ahammed, Z.,Ahmad, N.,Ahn, S. U.,Aiola, S.,Akindinov, A.,Alam, S. N.,Alba, J. L. B.,Albuquerque American Physical Society 2018 Physical Review Letters Vol.120 No.10

<P>The azimuthal anisotropy coefficient v(2) of prompt D-0, D+, D*+, and D-s(+) mesons was measured in midcentral (30%-50% centrality class) Pb-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair root s(NN)=5.02 TeV, with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The D mesons were reconstructed via their hadronic decays at midrapidity, |y| < 0.8, in the transverse momentum interval 1 < p(T) < 24 GeV/c. The measured D-meson v(2) has similar values as that of charged pions. The D-s(+) v(2), measured for the first time, is found to be compatible with that of nonstrange D mesons. The measurements are compared with theoretical calculations of charm-quark transport in a hydrodynamically expanding medium and have the potential to constrain medium parameters.</P>

Implication of intracellular ROS formation, caspase-3 activation and Egr-1 induction in platycodon D-induced apoptosis of U937 human leukemia cells

Shin, D.Y.,Kim, G.Y.,Li, W.,Choi, B.T.,Kim, N.D.,Kang, H.S.,Choi, Y.H. Masson Pub. USA, Inc 2009 BIOMEDICINE AND PHARMACOTHERAPY Vol.63 No.2

Platycodon D is a major constituent of triterpene saponins found in the root of Platycodon grandiflorum, Platycodi Radix, which is widely used in traditional Oriental medicine for the treatment of many chronic inflammatory diseases. The results of previous studies have shown that this compound has in vitro growth-inhibitory activity in human cancer cells, however, the mechanism by which this action occurs is poorly understood. In this study, we examined the effects of platycodon D on the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and evaluated the association of these effects with apoptotic tumor cell death using a human leukemic U937 cell line. The results of this study demonstrate that platycodon D mediates ROS production, and that this mediation is followed by a decrease in mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP, ΔΨ<SUB>m</SUB>), activation of caspase-3, and cleavage of poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP). Both the cytotoxic effects and apoptotic characteristics induced by platycodon D treatment were significantly inhibited by z-DEVD-fmk, a caspase-3 inhibitor, which demonstrates the important role that caspase-3 plays in the observed cytotoxic effect. Additionally, the transcription factor early growth response-1 (Egr-1) gene was transcriptionally activated and the levels of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-activated gene-1 (NAG-1) protein were elevated in platycodon D-treated U937 cells. However, the quenching of ROS generation in response to treatment with a ROS scavenger, N-acetyl-l-cysteine, reversed the platycodon D-induced apoptosis effects via inhibition of Egr-1 activation, ROS production, MMP collapse, and the subsequent activation of caspase-3. Although further studies are needed to demonstrate that increased expression of Egr-1 by platycodon D leads directly to NAG-1 induction and subsequent apoptosis, our observations clearly indicate that ROS induced through Egr-1 activation are involved in the early molecular events involved in the platycodon D-induced apoptotic pathway.

Y.N. Zhang,J. Wang,B. Qi,S.G. Wu,H.R. Chen,H.Y. Luo,D.J. Yin,F.J. Lu,H.J. Zhang,G.H. Qi 아세아·태평양축산학회 2017 Animal Bioscience Vol.30 No.8

Objective: The objective of the present study was to determine whether mango saponin (MS) could be used as a feed additive in broiler chicks by evaluating growth performance, carcass characteristics, meat quality, and plasma biochemical indices. Methods: A total of 216 1-d-old Arbor Acres male broiler chicks were randomly assigned into three dietary treatments supplemented with 0 (control), 0.14% (MS 0.14%), or 0.28% (MS 0.28%) MS. Each treatment had six replicates (cages) with 12 chicks each. The feeding trial lasted for six weeks. Results: Compared with the control, dietary supplemented with 0.14% or 0.28% MS increased average daily weight gain of chicks in the grower (22 to 42 d) and the whole (1 to 42 d) phases, and the final body weight of chicks on d 42 was higher in MS supplemented groups (p<0.05). Lower L45 min* (lightness) and L24 h* values, lower b24 h* (yellowness) value, and higher a45 min* (redness) and a24 h* values of the breast muscle were observed in chicks fed with 0.28% MS on d 42 (p<0.05). The total antioxidant capacity in plasma increased in MS 0.14% group on d 21 (p<0.001). Lower contents of plasma total cholesterol and triglyceride were observed in chicks fed with 0.28% MS on d 21 and d 42, whereas the group supplemented with 0.14% MS only decreased plasma triglyceride content on d 21 (p<0.05). The glucose content in plasma decreased in MS 0.28% group on d 42 (p<0.001). Conclusion: Overall, MS could be used as a feed additive in broiler chicks, and the supplemental level of 0.28% MS in diet could improve growth performance, meat quality, and plasma lipid metabolism in broiler chicks.

Genome-wide transcriptome analysis of expression in rice seedling roots in response to supplemental nitrogen

Chandran, A.K.N.,Priatama, R.A.,Kumar, V.,Xuan, Y.,Je, B.I.,Kim, C.M.,Jung, K.H.,Han, C.d. G. Fischer 2016 Journal of plant physiology Vol.200 No.-

<P>Nitrogen (N) is the most important macronutrient for plant growth and grain yields. For rice crops, nitrate and ammonium are the major N sources. To explore the genomic responses to ammonium supplements in rice roots, we used 17-day-old seedlings grown in the absence of external N that were then exposed to 0.5 mM (NH4)(2)SO4 for 3 h. Transcriptomic profiles were examined by microarray experiments. In all, 634 genes were up-regulated at least two-fold by the N-supplement when compared with expression in roots from untreated control plants. Gene Ontology (GO) enrichment analysis revealed that those upregulated genes are associated with 23 GO terms. Among them, metabolic processes for diverse amino acids (i.e., aspartate, threonine, tryptophan, glutamine, L-phenylalanine, and thiamin) as well as nitrogen compounds are highly over-represented, demonstrating that our selected genes are suitable for studying the N-response in roots. This enrichment analysis also indicated that nitrogen is closely linked to diverse transporter activities by primary metabolites, including proteins (amino acids), lipids, and carbohydrates, and is associated with carbohydrate catabolism and cell wall organization. Integration of results from omics analysis of metabolic pathways and transcriptome data using the MapMan tool suggested that the TCA cycle and pathway for mitochondrial electron transport are co-regulated when rice roots are exposed to ammonium. We also investigated the expression of N-responsive marker genes by performing a comparative analysis with root samples from plants grown under different NH4+ treatments. The diverse responses to such treatment provide useful insight into the global changes related to the shift from an N-deficiency to an enhanced N-supply in rice, a model crop plant.

Fit of interim crowns fabricated using photopolymer-jetting 3D printing

Mai, H.N.,Lee, K.B.,Lee, D.H. C. V. Mosby Co 2017 The Journal of prosthetic dentistry Vol.118 No.2

Statement of problem: The fit of interim crowns fabricated using 3-dimensional (3D) printing is unknown. Purpose: The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the fit of interim crowns fabricated using photopolymer-jetting 3D printing and to compare it with that of milling and compression molding methods. Material and methods: Twelve study models were fabricated by making an impression of a metal master model of the mandibular first molar. On each study model, interim crowns (N=36) were fabricated using compression molding (molding group, n=12), milling (milling group, n=12), and 3D polymer-jetting methods. The crowns were prepared as follows: molding group, overimpression technique; milling group, a 5-axis dental milling machine; and polymer-jetting group using a 3D printer. The fit of interim crowns was evaluated in the proximal, marginal, internal axial, and internal occlusal regions by using the image-superimposition and silicone-replica techniques. The Mann-Whitney U test and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used to compare the results among groups (α=.05). Results: Compared with the molding group, the milling and polymer-jetting groups showed more accurate results in the proximal and marginal regions (P<.001). In the axial regions, even though the mean discrepancy was smallest in the molding group, the data showed large deviations. In the occlusal region, the polymer-jetting group was the most accurate, and compared with the other groups, the milling group showed larger internal discrepancies (P<.001). Conclusions: Polymer-jet 3D printing significantly enhanced the fit of interim crowns, particularly in the occlusal region.

ZEUS Collaboration,Chekanov, S.,Derrick, M.,Magill, S.,Miglioranzi, S.,Musgrave, B.,Nicholass, D.,Repond, J.,Yoshida, R.,Mattingly, M.C.K.,Jechow, M.,Pavel, N.,Yagues Molina, A.G.,Antonelli, S.,Antoni North-Holland Pub. Co 2007 Physics letters: B Vol.649 No.2

The production of D<SUP>*+</SUP>/-(2010) mesons in e<SUP>+</SUP>/-p scattering in the range of exchanged photon virtuality 0.05<Q<SUP>2</SUP><0.7 GeV<SUP>2</SUP> has been measured with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 82 pb<SUP>-1</SUP>. The decay channels D<SUP>*+</SUP>->D<SUP>0</SUP>π<SUP>+</SUP> with D<SUP>0</SUP>->K<SUP>-</SUP>π<SUP>+</SUP> and corresponding antiparticle decay were used to identify D<SUP>*</SUP> mesons and the ZEUS beampipe calorimeter was used to identify the scattered electron. Differential D<SUP>*</SUP> cross sections as functions of Q<SUP>2</SUP>, inelasticity, y, transverse momentum of the D<SUP>*</SUP> meson, p<SUB>T</SUB>(D<SUP>*</SUP>), and pseudorapidity of the D<SUP>*</SUP> meson, η(D<SUP>*</SUP>), have been measured in the kinematic region 0.02<y<0.85, 1.5<p<SUB>T</SUB>(D<SUP>*</SUP>)<9.0 GeV and |η(D<SUP>*</SUP>)|<1.5. The measured differential cross sections are in agreement with two different NLO QCD calculations. The cross sections are also compared to previous ZEUS measurements in the photoproduction and DIS regimes.
