Cysteinyl Cathepsins: Multifunctional Enzymes in Cardiovascular Disease
Xiang Li,Zexuan Liu,Zeen Cheng,Xian Wu Cheng 전남대학교 의과학연구소 2012 전남의대학술지 Vol.48 No.2
Until recently, the role of lysosomal cysteine protease cathepsins in intracellular protein degradation was believed to be mainly restricted to scavenging. However, recent studies have revealed nontraditional roles for cysteine protease cathepsins in the extracellular space during the development and progression of cardiovascular disease. Although the precise mechanisms are unknown, data from animal studies suggest that members of the cathepsin family, like other extracellular proteases, contribute to extracellular matrix protein remodeling and interstitial matrix degradation, as well as to cell signaling and cell apoptosis in heart disease. Inflammatory cytokines and hormones regulate the expression and secretion of cathepsins in cultured cardiovascular cells and macrophages. Serum levels of cathepsins L, S, and K and their endogenous inhibitor cystatin C may be useful predictive biomarkers in patients with coronary artery disease and cardiac disease. Furthermore, in vivo pharmacological intervention with a synthetic cathepsin inhibitor and cardiovascular drugs (including statins and angiotensin II type 1 receptor antagonists) has the potential for pharmacologic targeting of cathepsins in cardiovascular disease. This review focuses on cathepsin biology (structure, synthesis, processing, activation, secretion, activity regulation, and function)and the involvement of cysteinyl cathepsins in the pathogenesis of several heart and vessel diseases, especially with respect to their potential application as diagnostic and prognostic markers and drug targets to prevent inappropriate proteolysis in cardiovascular disease.

Cheng-Xiang Guo,Yi-Nan Shen,Qi Zhang,Xiao-Zhen Zhang,Jun-Li Wang,Shun-Liang Gao,Jian-Ying Lou,Ri-Sheng Que,Tao Ma,Ting-Bo Liang,Xue-Li Bai 대한외과학회 2020 Annals of Surgical Treatment and Research(ASRT) Vol.98 No.2
Purpose: The International Study Group on Pancreatic Fistula’s definition of postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) has recently been updated. This study aimed to identify risk factors for POPF in patients having pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and to generate a nomogram to predict POPF. Methods: Data on 298 patients who underwent PD from March 2012 to October 2017 was retrospectively reviewed and POPF statuses were redefined. A nomogram was constructed using data from 220 patients and validated using the remaining 78 patients. Independent risk factors for POPF were identified using univariate and multivariate analyses. A predictive nomogram was established based on the independent risk factors and was compared with existing models. Results: Texture of the pancreas, size of the main pancreatic duct, portal vein invasion, and definitive pathology were the identified risk factors. The nomogram had a C-index of 0.793 and was internally validated. The nomogram performed better (C-index of 0.816) than the other most cited models (C-indexes of 0.728 and 0.735) in the validation cohort. In addition, the nomogram can assign patients into low- (less than 10%), intermediate- (10% to 30%), and high-risk (equal or higher than 30%) groups to facilitate personalized management. Conclusion: The nomogram accurately predicted POPF in patients having PD.

Ultimate behavior of long-span steel arch bridges
Cheng, Jin,Jiang, Jian-Jing,Xiao, Ru-Cheng,Xiang, Hai-Fan Techno-Press 2002 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.14 No.3
Because of the increasing span of arch bridges, ultimate capacity analysis recently becomes more focused both on design and construction. This paper investigates the static and ultimate behavior of a long-span steel arch bridge up to failure and evaluates the overall safety of the bridge. The example bridge is a long-span steel arch bridge with a 550 m-long central span under construction in Shanghai, China. This will be the longest central span of any arch bridge in the world. Ultimate behavior of the example bridge is investigated using three methods. Comparisons of the accuracy and reliability of the three methods are given. The effects of material nonlinearity of individual bridge element and distribution pattern of live load and initial lateral deflection of main arch ribs as well as yield stresses of material and changes of temperature on the ultimate load-carrying capacity of the bridge have been studied. The results show that the distribution pattern of live load and yield stresses of material have important effects on bridge behavior. The critical load analyses based on the linear buckling method and geometrically nonlinear buckling method considerably overestimate the load-carrying capacity of the bridge. The ultimate load-carrying capacity analysis and overall safety evaluation of a long-span steel arch bridge should be based on the geometrically and materially nonlinear buckling method. Finally, the in-plane failure mechanism of long-span steel arch bridges is explained by tracing the spread of plastic zones.

Nanocrystallization process and ferromagnetic properties of amorphous (Fe0.99Mo0.01)78Si9B13 ribbons
Xiang-Cheng Sun,J. Reyes-Gasga,N. Nava,W. S. Sun 한국물리학회 2002 Current Applied Physics Vol.2 No.3
The nanocrystallization process of soft ferromagnetic (Fe0:99Mo0:01)78Si9B13 ribbons has been studied in detail. Microstructural and ferromagnetic properties are examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Mossbauer spectroscopy (MS), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and magnetization measurements. The Curie and crystallization temperatures are determined to be TC ¼ 665 K and Tx ¼ 750 K, respectively. The Tx value is in well agreement with DSC measurement results. XRD patterns had shown two metastable phases (Fe23B6, Fe3 B) which were formed under in situ nanocrystallization process. These metastable phases embedded in the amorphous matrix have a significant effect on magnetic ordering. The ultimate nanocrystalline (NC) phases of a-Fe(Mo, Si) and Fe2B at optimum annealing temperature had been observed respectively. It is notable that the magnetization of the amorphous phase decreases more rapidly with increasing temperature than those of NC ferromagnetism, which suggest the presence of the distribution of exchange interaction in the amorphous phase or high metalloid contents.

One of the biggest challenges for mechanical micro/nano milling is the design and fabrication of high precision and high efficiency micro milling tools. Commercially available micro milling tools are either too expensive (around several hundred US dollars) or simply made from downsizing of macro milling tools, which is sometimes not appropriate for the specific micro/nano milling requirements. So the design and fabrication of custom micro milling tools are necessary. In this paper, a micro straight edge endmill (SEE) is designed. Static and dynamic FEM analyses have been done for the SEEs with different rake angles trying to identify their stiffness and natural frequencies. By wire electrical discharge machining (WEDM), the SEEs made of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) with three different rake angles have been fabricated. The evaluation milling on tungsten carbide (WC) and silicon wafer have processed on a nano milling center. Experimental results show the SEEs have a good ability to simultaneously micro/nano milling of both the side and bottom surfaces with submicron surface roughness, and the SEE has high accuracy for large aspect ratio thin wall machining. The milling experiments on silicon wafer have successfully demonstrated that ductile mode machining was achieved and the coolant played an important role in silicon wafer milling.

Research on the probability model of basic wind speed estimation in China
Cheng Xiang,Airong Chen,Qiheng Li,Rujin Ma 한국풍공학회 2021 Wind and Structures, An International Journal (WAS Vol.32 No.6
Wind speed is one of the most critical parameters in predicting structural performance under wind effects. In most of the current standards and codes, the design reference wind speed is usually determined by fitting a typical probability distribution model based on the historical wind speed data. However, a single distribution model is generally insufficient to reflect the regional differences in wind characteristics. Therefore, in this research, the optimal probability is selected to determine the extreme wind speed in different regions in China based on the fourth-order linear moment method (FLMM). Firstly, several probability models for estimating extreme wind speed distribution are introduced. Then, the optimal model, as well as the relative parameters, are determined by the linear moments (L-moments) method, and the one with the minimum value of the fourth-order linear moment between the probability model and the sample is taken as the optimal distribution. Finally, the extreme wind speed of each meteorological station is estimated according to the obtained optimal distribution, and the results are compared with the recorded extreme wind speed of typical metrological stations as well as that in the previous version of specification (JTG/T D60-01-2004). Compared with the traditional method that adopting a single distribution model-based wind speed estimation, the extreme wind speed obtained by the proposed method possessed higher accuracy.

The present study aimed to investigate the function of translationally controlled tumor protein (TCTP) in the regulation of Oct4 in mouse embryonic carcinoma P19 cells and mouse J1 embryonic stem (ES) cells. The mRNA level of endogenous TCTP in somatic cells was 2-4 folds higher than that in pluripotent P19 and J1 ES cells. Overexpression of TCTP in mouse pluripotent cells not only reduced the level of Oct4 transcription, but also decreased the pluripotency of stem cells. The N-terminal end of TCTP (amino acids 1-60) played an important role in suppressing the Oct4 promoter. Moreover, overexpression of TCTP in P19 cells suppressed the Oct4 promoter activity in a dose- and a time-dependent manner. In addition, knockdown of TCTP by small interfering RNA increased the expression of Oct4. Our study indicates that TCTP downregulates the Oct4 expression by binding the Sf1 site of Oct4 promoter in mouse pluripotent cells. [BMB reports 2012; 45(1): 20-25]
