Stress is now recognized as a universal premorbid factor associated with many risk factors of various chronic diseases. Acute stress may induce an individual’s adaptive response to environmental demands. However, chronic, excessive stress causes cumulative negative impacts on health outcomes through “allostatic load”. Thus, monitoring the quantified levels of long-term stress mediators would provide a timely opportunity for prevention or earlier intervention of stressrelated chronic illnesses. Although either acute or chronic stress could be quantified through measurement of changes in physiological parameters such as heart rate, blood pressure, and levels of various metabolic hormones, it is still elusive to interpret whether the changes in circulating levels of stress mediators such as cortisol can reflect the acute, chronic, or diurnal variations. Both serum and salivary cortisol levels reveal acute changes at a single point in time, but the overall long-term systemic cortisol exposure is difficult to evaluate due to circadian variations and its protein-binding capacity. Scalp hair has a fairy predictable growth rate of approximately 1 cm/month, and the most 1 cm segment approximates the last month’s cortisol production as the mean value. The analysis of cortisol in hair is a highly promising technique for the retrospective assessment of chronic stress. [BMB Reports 2015; 48(4): 209-216]

Rapamycin, known as an inhibitor of Target of Rapamycin (TOR), is an immunosuppressant drug used to prevent rejection in organ transplantation. Despite the close association of the TOR signaling cascade with various scopes of metabolism, it has not yet been thoroughly investigated at the metabolome level. In our current study, we applied mass spectrometric analysis for profiling primary metabolism in order to capture the responsive dynamics of the Chlamydomonas metabolome to the inhibition of TOR by rapamycin. Accordingly, we identified the impact of the rapamycin treatment at the level of metabolomic phenotypes that were clearly distinguished by multivariate statistical analysis. Pathway analysis pinpointed that inactivation of the TCA cycle was accompanied by the inhibition of cellular growth. Relative to the constant suppression of the TCA cycle, most amino acids were significantly increased in a time-dependent manner by longer exposure to rapamycin treatment, after an initial down-regulation at the early stage of exposure. Finally, we explored the isolation of the responsive metabolic factors into the rapamycin treatment and the culture duration, respectively.

<P>Silica nanorods were successfully prepared through a sol−gel process in the presence of carboxylic-functionalized single-walled carbon nanotubes (C-SWCNTs). The effect of chemical functionalization of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) on the growth of the silica layer was investigated using pristine SWCNTs (P-SWCNTs) and C-SWCNTS. The C-SWCNTs served as a unique template to fabricate silica hybrid composite materials. The crystalline formation and growing mechanism of the silica layer on C-SWCNTs were explained by the hydrolysis and chemical bonding between silica precursors and carboxylated SWCNTs. The C-SWCNTs, as templates, were successfully encapsulated using silica, and used templates were removed by oxidation at high temperature. Finally, silica nanorods/nanowires were synthesized in forms of mold, and this silica fabrication mechanism could be applied for large-scale production of silica nanomaterials and highly flexible nanocomposites. The sequence of a silica encapsulation process of C-SWCNTs and removed C-SWCNTs was characterized using SEM, TEM, EDX, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy, XRD, and electrical analysis.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/ancac3/2010/ancac3.2010.4.issue-7/nn100807r/production/images/medium/nn-2010-00807r_0007.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/nn100807r'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>

<P>We report the use of a hydrogel polymer, recombinant <I>Escherichia coli</I> cell extracts, and a microdroplet-based microfluidic device to fabricate artificial cellular bioreactors which act as reactors to synthesize diverse metal nanoparticles (NPs). The combination of cell extracts, microdroplet-based microfluidic device, and hydrogel was able to produce a mass amount of artificial cellular bioreactors with uniform size and shape. For the first time, we report the alternating generation of microdroplets through one orifice for the fabrication of the artificial cellular reactors using the cell extract as inner cellular components and hydrogel as an artificial cellular membrane. Notably, the hydrogels were able to protect the encapsulated cell extracts from the surrounding environment and maintain the functionality of cellular component for the further cellular bioreactor applications. Furthermore, the successful applications of the fabricated artificial cellular bioreactors to synthesize various NPs including quantum dots, iron, and gold was demonstrated. By employing this microfluidic technique, the artificial cellular bioreactors could be applicable for the synthesis of diverse metal NPs through simple dipping of the reactors to the metal precursor solutions. Thus, the different size of NPs can be synthesized through controlling the concentration of metal precursors. This artificial cellular bioreactors offer promising abilities to biofriendly ways to synthesis diverse NPs and can be applicable in chemical, biomedical, and bioengineering applications.</P><P><B>Graphic Abstract</B> <IMG SRC='http://pubs.acs.org/appl/literatum/publisher/achs/journals/content/ancac3/2012/ancac3.2012.6.issue-8/nn302043q/production/images/medium/nn-2012-02043q_0001.gif'></P><P><A href='http://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/nn302043q'>ACS Electronic Supporting Info</A></P>
