<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>A solution‐processed anthradithiophene derivative, 5,11‐bis(4‐triethylsilylphenylethynyl)anthradithiophene (TESPE‐ADT), is studied for use as the semiconducting material in thin‐film transistors (TFTs). To enhance the electrical performance of the devices, two different kinds of solution processing (spin‐coating and drop‐casting) on various gate dielectrics as well as additional post‐treatment are employed on thin films of TESPE‐ADT, and <I>p</I>‐channel OTFT transport with hole mobilities as high as ∼0.12 cm<SUP>2</SUP> V<SUP>−1</SUP> s<SUP>−1</SUP> are achieved. The film morphologies and formed microstructures of the semiconductor films are characterized in terms of film processing conditions and are correlated with variations in device performance.</P>

Xin, Lix2010,Ping,Liang, Enx2010,Wei,Wei, Jianx2010,Yan,Zhang, Bing,Lv, Houx2010,Jun,Zheng, Weix2010,Kang,Urata, Yuji,Im, Myungshin,Wang, Jing,Qiu, Yux2010,Lei,Deng, Jinx2010,Song,Huang, Blackwell Publishing Ltd 2011 MONTHLY NOTICES- ROYAL ASTRONOMICAL SOCIETY Vol.410 No.1
<P><B>ABSTRACT</B></P><P>GRB 090426 is a short‐duration burst detected by <I>Swift</I> (<IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu1.gif' alt ='inline image'/> s in the observer frame and <IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu2.gif' alt ='inline image'/> s in the burst frame at <I>z</I>= 2.609). Its host galaxy properties and some gamma‐ray‐related correlations are analogous to those seen in long‐duration gamma‐ray bursts (GRBs), which are believed to be of a massive star origin (so‐called Type II GRBs). We present the results of its early optical observations with the 0.8‐m Tsinghua University–National Astronomical Observatory of China Telescope (TNT) at Xinglong Observatory and the 1‐m LOAO telescope at Mt Lemmon Optical Astronomy Observatory in Arizona. Our well‐sampled optical afterglow light curve covers from <IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu3.gif' alt ='inline image'/> to 10<SUP>4</SUP> s after the GRB trigger. It shows two shallow decay episodes that are likely due to energy injection, which end at <IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu4.gif' alt ='inline image'/> and 7100 s, respectively. The decay slopes after the injection phases are consistent with each other (<IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu5.gif' alt ='inline image'/>). The X‐ray afterglow light curve appears to trace the optical, although the second energy‐injection phase was missed due to visibility constraints introduced by the <I>Swift</I> orbit. The X‐ray spectral index is <IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu6.gif' alt ='inline image'/> without temporal evolution. Its decay slope is consistent with the prediction of the forward shock model. Both X‐ray and optical emission are consistent with being in the same spectral regime above the cooling frequency (<IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu7.gif' alt ='inline image'/>). The fact that <IMG src='/wiley-blackwell_img/equation/MNR_17419_mu8.gif' alt ='inline image'/> is below the optical band from the very early epoch of the observation provides a constraint on the burst environment, which is similar to that seen in classical long‐duration GRBs. We therefore suggest that death of a massive star is the possible progenitor of this short burst.</P>

<P><B>Summary</B></P><P>Grain number is an important agronomic trait. We investigated the roles of chromatin interacting factor <I>Oryza sativa </I>VIN3‐LIKE 2 (OsVIL2), which controls plant biomass and yield in rice. Mutations in <I>OsVIL2</I> led to shorter plants and fewer grains whereas its overexpression (OX) enhanced biomass production and grain numbers when compared with the wild type. RNA‐sequencing analyses revealed that 1958 genes were up‐regulated and 2096 genes were down‐regulated in the region of active division within the first internodes of OX plants. Chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis showed that, among the downregulated genes, OsVIL2 was directly associated with chromatins in the promoter region of <I>CYTOKININ OXIDASE/DEHYDROGENASE2</I> (<I>OsCKX2</I>), a gene responsible for cytokinin degradation. Likewise, active cytokinin levels were increased in the OX plants. We conclude that OsVIL2 improves the production of biomass and grain by suppressing <I>OsCKX2</I> chromatin.</P>
Osmotic stress‐induced phosphorylation by NLK at Ser128 activates YAP
Hong, Audrey W,Meng, Zhipeng,Yuan, Haix2010,Xin,Plouffe, Steven W,Moon, Sungho,Kim, Wantae,Jho, Eekx2010,hoon,Guan, Kunx2010,Liang EMBO 2017 EMBO reports Vol.18 No.1
<P>YAP is the major downstream effector of the Hippo pathway, which controls cell growth, tissue homeostasis, and organ size. Aberrant YAP activation, resulting from dysregulation of the Hippo pathway, is frequently observed in human cancers. YAP is a transcription co-activator, and the key mechanism of YAP regulation is its nuclear and cytoplasmic translocation. The Hippo pathway component, LATS, inhibits YAP by phosphorylating YAP at Ser127, leading to 14-3-3 binding and cytoplasmic retention of YAP. Here, we report that osmotic stress stimulates transient YAP nuclear localization and increases YAP activity even when YAP Ser127 is phosphorylated. Osmotic stress acts via the NLK kinase to induce YAP Ser128 phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of YAP at Ser128 interferes with its ability to bind to 14-3-3, resulting in YAP nuclear accumulation and induction of downstream target gene expression. This osmotic stress-induced YAP activation enhances cellular stress adaptation. Our findings reveal a critical role for NLK-mediated Ser128 phosphorylation in YAP regulation and a crosstalk between osmotic stress and the Hippo pathway.</P>

<P><B>Summary</B></P><P><B>Context </B> Recently, tremendous efforts have been made towards the development of sensitive techniques to detect the BRAF<SUP>V600E</SUP> mutation in fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) samples. However, newly developed quantitative and semi‐quantitative methods, such as dual‐priming oligonucleotide (DPO)‐based multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR), have the potential to generate false‐positive (FP) results.</P><P><B>Objectives </B> To eliminate the possibility of FP results, we generated a receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to investigate the diagnostic accuracy of pyrosequencing using quantitative data.</P><P><B>Design </B> Cytological diagnoses of 983 thyroid nodules were made according to the Bethesda System 2007. The BRAF<SUP>V600E</SUP> mutation was analysed by pyrosequencing, and statistical analyses were performed.</P><P><B>Results </B> Of the 983 nodules, 902 were adopted to evaluate the diagnostic value of pyrosequencing. The number of pathologically confirmed malignancies was 192, of which 182 were papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). By generating an ROC curve, we defined the optimal cut‐off value of the mutant allele peak as 5·95% (area under the curve, 0·849; sensitivity, 0·55; 1‐specificity, 0). When we applied this selective cut‐off value, the number of PTCs positive for BRAF<SUP>V600E</SUP> was 99 (54·4% of the total number of PTCs). With cytology alone, the diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of detecting malignancy were 71·2% and 100%, respectively. Pyrosequencing improved the diagnostic sensitivity from 71·2% to 78·5% (McNemar’s test, <I>P</I> < 0·001), without any change in the diagnostic specificity. When ‘suspicious for malignancy’ was considered a positive cytological outcome, pyrosequencing increased the diagnostic sensitivity of cytology from 95·8% to 96·9%; however, this improvement did not show statistical significance (McNemar’s test, <I>P</I> > 0·05).</P><P><B>Conclusions </B> Pyrosequencing is an effective method for detecting the BRAF<SUP>V600E</SUP> mutation in FNAB samples. By allowing the optimal cut‐off value to be determined, pyrosequencing improves the diagnostic sensitivity while eliminating the possibility of FP results.</P>

<P><B>ABSTRACT</B></P><P>The preparation and characteristics of rigid polyurethane foams (RPUFs) based on recycled polyol obtained by glycolysis of waste RPUF scraps from end‐of‐life refrigerators were investigated. To deactivate the amine adducts derived from isocyanates, the recycled product obtained after depolymerization was chemically modified via addition polymerization of propylene oxide. Two kinds of recycled polyols with different hydroxyl values and viscosity were blended with conventional virgin polyether polyol to prepare the RPUFs. The effects of the recycled polyols on the physical properties of RPUFs such as cell structures, compressive strength, thermal conductivity, and limiting oxygen index were discussed. It was found that the RPUFs from recycled polyols showed superior compressive strength, thermal insulation property, and self‐extinguishing property compared with conventional control foam. The results of this study reveal that the recycled polyols could be used as feedstock for RPUFs with superior performance. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>Intrahepatic cholangiocellular carcinoma (ICC) is the second most common type of primary liver cancer. However, its tumor heterogeneity and molecular characteristics are largely unknown. In this study, we conducted transcriptomic profiling of 23 ICC and combined hepatocellular cholangiocarcinoma tumor specimens from Asian patients using Affymetrix messenger RNA (mRNA) and NanoString microRNA microarrays to search for unique gene signatures linked to tumor subtypes and patient prognosis. We validated the signatures in an additional 68 ICC cases derived from Caucasian patients. We found that both mRNA and microRNA expression profiles could independently classify Asian ICC cases into two main subgroups, one of which shared gene expression signatures with previously identified hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) with stem cell gene expression traits. ICC‐specific gene signatures could predict survival in Asian HCC cases and independently in Caucasian ICC cases. Integrative analyses of the ICC‐specific mRNA and microRNA expression profiles revealed that a common signaling pathway linking miR‐200c signaling to epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT) was preferentially activated in ICC with stem cell gene expression traits. Inactivation of miR‐200c resulted in an induction of EMT, whereas activation of miR‐200c led to a reduction of EMT including a reduced cell migration and invasion in ICC cells. We also found that miR‐200c and neural cell adhesion molecule 1 (NCAM1) expression were negatively correlated and their expression levels were predictive of survival in ICC samples. NCAM1, a known hepatic stem/progenitor cell marker, was experimentally demonstrated to be a direct target of miR‐200c. Conclusion: Our results indicate that ICC and HCC share common stem‐like molecular characteristics and poor prognosis. We suggest that the specific components of EMT may be exploited as critical biomarkers and clinically relevant therapeutic targets for an aggressive form of stem cell‐like ICC.
