Due to aging, deficiency of vitamins and minerals, a prior accident or injury, the bones in our body become weak and fragile and so may cause serious defect of hard bone tissues. In orthopaedic surgery, Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cements are used to refill and remodel bone defect. PMMA bone cements are formulated by mixing the powder (polymer, PMMA) and the liquid (monomer, methyl methacrylate). During the process, the dimethyl-p-toluidine in the liquid activates the benzoyl peroxide catalyst in the powder and this initiates the polymerization of the monomer, which then binds together PMMA granules. However, PMMA bone cements have displayed cytotoxicity to bone tissue in clinic. In present study, we used PMMA with different molecular weights (Mw:1,5000, 12,0000, 35,0000 and 99,6000 dalton) to prepare 4 types of bone cements for studying the effect of molecular weight of polymeric additives. Chemical eluates were extracted from PMMA bone cements and examined for their bioactive effects on 7F2 osteoblast-like cells and Raw 264.7 microphages. Results demonstrated that PMMA bone cements and eluates could inhibit the differentiation and mineralization behavior of 7F2 osteoblast-like cells after the cytotoxicity of PMMA bone cements and elutes were no longer evident. Moreover, bone cements prepared with high molecular weight PMMA (MW: 99,6000 dalton) had less suppressive effect on cell differentiation and mineralization in comparison with others. In Raw 264.7 microphages, PMMA bone cements and eluates can inhibit osteoclast formation but there was no significant difference among 4 types of bone cements. The aim of this research is to investigate the influence of PMMA bone cements on osteoblasts and osteoclasts and we hope these results can provide some useful information for the clinical application of PMMA bone cements.

Dermal Lipogenesis Inhibits Adiponectin Production in Hs68 Fibroblasts

( Kai-chen Hu ),( Tsung-yan Tsai ),( Chu-wen Shao ),( Hsin-i Chang ) 한국농업기계학회 2018 한국농업기계학회 학술발표논문집 Vol.23 No.1

Adiponectin is one of the most abundant adipokines from the subcutaneous fat, and regulates multiple activities through endocrine, paracrine, or autocrine mechanisms. However, its expression in adipogenic induced fibroblasts, and the potential role in photoaging has not been determined. Here, human dermal fibroblasts, Hs68, were presented as a cell model of dermal lipogenesis through stimulation of adipogenic differentiation medium (ADM). Similar to other studies in murine pre-adipocyte models (i.e., 3T3-L1), Hs68 fibroblasts showed a tendency to lipogenesis based on lipid accumulation, triglyceride formation, and the expressions of PPAR-γ, lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and FABP4 mRNA. As expected, ADM-treated fibroblasts displayed a reduction on adiponectin expression. Overall, these results suggest that dermal lipogenesis may inhibit the expression of adiponectin.

In this study, two soybean genotypes, i.e., aluminum-tolerant Baxi 10 (BX10) and aluminumsensitive Bendi 2 (BD2), were used as plant materials and acidic red soil was used as growth medium. The soil layers from the inside to the outside of the root are: rhizospheric soil after washing (WRH), rhizospheric soil after brushing (BRH) and rhizospheric soil at two sides (SRH), respectively. The rhizosphere bacterial communities were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing of V4 hypervariable regions of 16S rRNA gene amplicons via Illumina MiSeq. The results of alpha diversity analysis showed that the BRH and SRH of BX10 were significantly lower in community richness than that of BD2, while the WRH exhibited no significant difference between BX10 and BD2. Among the three sampling compartments of the same soybean genotype, WRH had the lowest community richness and diversity while showing the highest coverage. Beta diversity analysis results displayed no significant difference for any compartment between the two genotypes, or among the three different sampling compartments for any same soybean genotype. However, the relative abundance of major bacterial taxa, specifically nitrogen-fixing and/or aluminum-tolerant bacteria, was significantly different in the compartments of the BRH and/or SRH at phylum and genus levels, indicating genotype-dependent variations in rhizosphere bacterial communities. Strikingly, as compared with BRH and SRH, the WRH within the same genotype (BX10 or BD2) always had an enrichment effect on rhizosphere bacteria associated with nitrogen fixation

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble synthetic polymer and which has high tensile strength and flexibility, low toxicity and good biocompatibility for the application of soft tissue engineering. Generally, PVA can be crosslinked to form 3-D structure by a variety of methods, such as chemical crosslinking, irradiation or the freeze-thaw techniques. In contrast, chemical-crosslinked PVA structure has good elasticity, high water content, and stability at room temperature but most of crosslinking reagents such as glutaradehyde have high cytotoxicity. In here, we used low toxic genipin as crosslinking reagent for the formulation of PVA membrane. Thermal behavior and mechanical properties of genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane have been measured by thermo gravimetric analyzer and universal testing machine. Genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane had a smooth surface and the contact angel was about 67°. The swelling test displayed that genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane had high water content (130%) and the increase of PVA molecular weight can slightly improve water content. Moreover, dried genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane presented higher tensile strength (7.21MPa) but lower ductility (3.4%) than hydrated membrane (3.9MPa and 302.4%). Interestingly, rehydration of dried PVA membrane can maintain similar ductility to original hydrated membrane but the tensile strength was reduced by 40%. Therefore, drying process may break some hydrogen bonding between the polymer structure of PVA membrane. In MTT assay, there was some toxicity remained in genipin-PVA membrane but cell survivability was 1.5-1.9 fold higher than glutaradehyde-crosslinked PVA membrane. Overall, genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane showed low toxicity, good cell attachment and growth of human foreskin fibroblasts. After the cell culture study, the degradation of genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane was investigated by scanning electron microscope. Therefore, genipin-crosslinked PVA membrane is a biodegradable material and which can apply in soft tissue engineering due to its good elastic behavior.

( Chenn-jung Huang ),( Kai-wen Hu ),( An-feng Liu ),( Liang-chun Chen ),( Chih-ting Chen ) 한국인터넷정보학회 2019 KSII Transactions on Internet and Information Syst Vol.13 No.10

As a subset of the Internet of Things, the Internet of Energy (IoE) is expected to tackle the problems faced by the current smart grid framework. Notably, the conventional day-ahead power scheduling of the smart grid should be redesigned in the IoE architecture to take into consideration the intermittence of scattered renewable generations, large amounts of power consumption data, and the uncertainty of the arrival time of electric vehicles (EVs). Accordingly, a day-ahead power scheduling system for the future IoE is proposed in this research to maximize the usage of distributed renewables and reduce carbon emission caused by the traditional power generation. Meanwhile, flexible charging mechanism of EVs is employed to provide preferred charging options for moving EVs and flatten the load profile simultaneously. The simulation results revealed that the proposed power scheduling mechanism not only achieves emission reduction and balances power load and supply effectively, but also fits each individual EV user’s preference.

Purpose This study aimed to investigate the potential systemic antitumor effects of stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) and apatinib (a novel vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 inhibitor) via reversing the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment for lung carcinoma. Materials and Methods Lewis lung cancer cells were injected into C57BL/6 mice in the left hindlimb (primary tumor; irradiated) and in the right flank (secondary tumor; nonirradiated). When both tumors grew to the touchable size, mice were randomly divided into eight treatment groups. These groups received normal saline or three distinct doses of apatinib (50 mg/kg, 150 mg/kg, and 200 mg/kg) daily for 7 days, in combination with a single dose of 15 Gy radiotherapy or not to the primary tumor. The further tumor growth/regression of mice were followed and observed. Results For the single 15 Gy modality, tumor growth delay could only be observed at the primary tumor. When combining SABR and apatinib 200 mg/kg, significant retardation of both primary and secondary tumor growth could be observed, indicated an abscopal effect was induced. Mechanism analysis suggested that programmed death-ligand 1 expression increased with SABR was counteract by additional apatinib therapy. Furthermore, when apatinib was combined with SABR, the composition of immune cells could be changed. More importantly, this two-pronged approach evoked tumor antigen–specific immune responses and the mice were resistant to another tumor rechallenge, finally, long-term survival was improved. Conclusion Our results suggested that the tumor microenvironment could be managed with apatinib, which was effective in eliciting an abscopal effect induced by SABR.

With the reaction between bib ligands, 5-substituted isophthalic acid and Cd(II) ions, we produced two coordination polymers in success, that is, [Cd(5-meo-ip) (bib)0.5]n (2) and [Cd(5-me-ip)(bib)(H2O)]n·n(H2O) (1) (bib is 1,4-bis(imidazoly)butane, 5-meo-H2ip is 5-methoxyisophthalic acid, and 5-me-H2ip is 5-methylisophthalic acid). The luminescent performances and thermal stability of the two compounds were also explored. Their anti-pancreatic cancer activity combined with biliary stent placement and 125I particles was evaluated and the specific mechanism was explored as well. Firstly, after the model construction and compound treatment, the weight and volume of the tumor tissue was measured. Next, the apoptosis level of the cancer cells were evaluated with Annexin V-FITC/PI apoptosis assay.

Li Wang,Xiao-Fei Liu,Shi Yun,Xiao-Peng Yuan,Xu-Hu Mao,Chao Wu,Wei-Jun Zhang,Kai-Yun Liu,Gang Guo,Dong-Shui Lu,Wen-De Tong,Ai-Dong Wen,Quan-Ming Zou 한국미생물학회 2010 The journal of microbiology Vol.48 No.2

A multivalent fusion vaccine is a promising option for protection against Helicobacter pylori infection. In this study, UreB414 was identified as an antigenic fragment of urease B subunit (UreB) and it induced an antibody inhibiting urease activity. Immunization with UreB414 partially protected mice from H. pylori infection. Furthermore, a trivalent fusion vaccine was constructed by genetically linking heat shock protein A (HspA), H. pylori adhesin A (HpaA), and UreB414, resulting in recombinant HspA-HpaA-UreB414 (rHHU). Its protective effect against H. pylori infection was tested in BALB/c mice. Oral administration of rHHU significantly protected mice from H. pylori infection, which was associated with H. pylori-specific antibody production and Th1/Th2-type immune responses. The results show that a trivalent fusion vaccine efficiently combats H. pylori infection, and that an antigenic fragment of the protein can be used instead of the whole protein to construct a multivalent vaccine.
