Legitimacy, War and the Rise of China: An International Political Sociology Perspective

( Shu Yong Guo ) 한국국방연구원 2007 The Korean Journal of Defense Analysis Vol.19 No.1

According to international political sociology (IPS), culture, identity and legitimacy play an indispensably important role in the structuring and socializing of international political behavior, and the ability to wage legitimate wars constitutes an important part of a nation`s soft national power. Since the 1894 Sino-Japanese war, which marked the lowest point of China`s fall in modern history, China has altogether taken part in about seven legitimate wars during its increase in comprehensive national power-namely, the First World War, the Sino-Russian Frontier War, the undeclared Sino-Japanese War between 1931 and 1941, the World Anti-Fascism War from 1941 to 1945, The War Resisting U.S. Aggression and Aiding North Korea in the early 1950s, the Sino-Indian Frontier war in 1962, and the Sino-Vietnam Frontier War The hundred-year rise in China`s national power benefits a lot from Chinese just revolution and legitimate wars. With the advent of the post-September 11 strategic era, China faces opportunities and challenges in participating in important international legitimate wars which fundamentally do not conflict with its new grand strategy of HPH (Harmonious Society, Peaceful Development, and Harmonious World).

Robust Control for Bidirectional Stabilization System With Time Delay Estimation

Shu-sen Yuan,Wen-xiang Deng,Jian-yong Yao,Guo-lai Yang 제어·로봇·시스템학회 2024 International Journal of Control, Automation, and Vol.22 No.4

In this paper, to address the problem of high precision tracking control for bidirectional stabilization system of marching all-electric tank, a continuous nonsingular terminal sliding mode (CNTSM) control method combined with time delay estimation (TDE) technique is presented. First, the nonlinear mathematical model of the bidirectional stabilization system with consideration of actuator dynamics is established. Second, the TDE method is invoked to estimate the unknown system dynamics and provide fascinating model-free structures. Then, a CNTSM surface and a fast TSM reaching law are constructed to guarantee finite-time convergence. The proposed controller no longer requires system dynamics benefiting from TDE, while ensuring high accuracy, fast convergence and good robustness against lumped uncertainty due to the CNTSM manifold and the fast TSM reaching law. The stability and finite-time convergence of the closed-loop system are analyzed applying Lyapunov theory. Extensive comparative results verify the superiority with the proposed controller.

Guo, Yong,Yang, Shu Yi,Liu, De Shun,Zhang, Long Yan,Chen, Jian Wen Korean Society for Fluid machinery 2016 International journal of fluid machinery and syste Vol.9 No.1

A high frequency hydraulic rock drill drifter with sleeve valve is developed to use on arm of excavator. In order to ensure optimal working parameters of impact system for the new hydraulic rock drill drifter controlled by sleeve valve, the performance test system is built using the arm and the hydraulic source of excavator. The evaluation indexes are gained through measurement of working pressure, supply oil flow and stress wave. The relations of working parameters to impact system performance are analyzed. The result demonstrates that the maximum impact energy of the drill drifter is 98.34J with impact frequency of 71HZ. Optimal pressure of YZ45 rock drill is 12.8 MPa-13.6MPa, in which the energy efficiency reaches above 58.6%, and feature moment of energy distribution is more than 0.650.

Wang Shu,Ma Yi Jia,Li Yong Shi,Ge Xu Sheng,Lu Chang,Cai Chunbo,Yang Yang,Zhao Yan,Liang Guo Ming,Guo Xiaohong,Cao Guoqing,Li Bugao,Gao Pengfei 아세아·태평양축산학회 2022 Animal Bioscience Vol.35 No.7

Objective: In this study, we aimed to identify long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) that play important roles in starvation stress, analyze their functions, and discover potential molecular targets to alleviate starvation stress to provide a theoretical reference for subsequent in-depth research. Methods: We generated a piglet starvation stress animal model. Nine Yorkshire weaned piglets were randomly divided into a long-term starvation stress group (starved for 72 h), short-term starvation stress group (starved for 48 h), and the control group. LncRNA libraries were constructed using high-throughput sequencing of piglet ileums. Results: We obtained 11,792 lncRNAs, among which, 2,500 lncRNAs were novel. In total, 509 differentially expressed (DE)lncRNAs were identified in this study. Target genes of DElncRNAs were predicted via cis and trans interactions, and functional and pathway analyses were performed. Gene ontology functions and Kyoto encyclopedia of genes and genomes analysis revealed that lncRNA-targeted genes mainly participated in metabolic pathways, cellular processes, immune system processes, digestive systems, and transport activities. To reveal the mechanism underlying starvation stress, the interaction network between lncRNAs and their targets was constructed based on 26 DElncRNAs and 72 DEmRNAs. We performed an interaction network analysis of 121 DElncRNA–DEmRNA pairs with a Pearson correlation coefficient greater than 0.99. Conclusion: We found that MSTRG.19894.13, MSTRG.16726.3, and MSTRG.12176.1 might play important roles in starvation stress. This study not only generated a library of enriched lncRNAs in piglets, but its outcomes also provide a strong foundation to screen key lncRNAs involved in starvation stress and a reference for subsequent in-depth research.

Li, Yong,Li, Da-Jiang,Chen, Jian,Liu, Wei,Li, Jian-Wei,Jiang, Peng,Zhao, Xin,Guo, Fei,Li, Xiao-Wu,Wang, Shu-Guang Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.5

Objective: To explore the expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (EHCC) tissues and its influence on tumor invasion and metastasis. Materials and Methods: Paraffin embedding samples of cancer, para-cancer, lymph node metastatic and hepatic metastatic tissues from 79 patients undergoing EHCC resection were collected. Expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ was detected by immunohistochemistry and its relationship with clinical pathological characteristics and the prognosis of EHCC patients were analyzed. Results: $Laminin{\gamma}2$ showed negative staining in para-cancer tissues, but demonstrated a 51.9% (41/79) positive expression rate in extracellular matrix (ECM) or cytoplasm of EHCC tissues. In lymph node metastatic and distant metastatic nidi, expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ was significantly higher than in the primary nidi (${\chi}^2=7.4173$, P=0.0065; ${\chi}^2=4.0077$, P=0.0453). The expression was in obvious association with lymph node metastasis (P<0.01), but had no relevance with age, gender, tumor location, tumor stage, differentiation and distant metastasis in ECM (P>0.05), whereas it was in marked connection with lymph node and distant metastasis (P<0.05 or P<0.01), but had no relationship with age, gender, tumor location, tumor stage and differentiation in cytoplasm (P>0.05). However, the median survival time and median recurrent period of patients with positive expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ in both cytoplasm and ECM of tumor cells, only in ECM and only in cytoplasm, were evidently lower than with negative expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ in RCM and cytoplasm (P<0.05 or P<0.01). Further Cox regression analysis showed that the positive expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ and the tumor differentiation were independent risk factors influencing the prognosis of EHCC patients. Conclusions: Abnormal expression of $laminin{\gamma}2$ may be closely associated with invasion and metastasis of tumor cells, and thus a potential molecular marker for prognosis of EHCC patients.

Effects of miR-155 Antisense Oligonucleotide on Breast Carcinoma Cell Line MDA-MB-157 and Implanted Tumors

Zheng, Shu-Rong,Guo, Gui-Long,Zhai, Qi,Zou, Zhang-Yong,Zhang, Wei Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2013 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.14 No.4

Diverse studies have shown that miR-155 is overexpressed in different tumor types. However, the precise molecular mechanism of the ectopic expression of miR-155 in breast cancer is still poorly understood. To further explore the role of miR-155 in breast tumorigenesis, we here assessed the influence of miR-155 antisense oligonucleotide (miR-155 ASO) on MDA-MB-157 cell viability and apoptosis in vitro. Furthermore, the effects of inhibitory effects of miR-155 on the growth of xenograft tumors in vivo were determined with performance of immunohistochemistry to detect expression of caspase-3, a pivotal apoptosis regulatory factor, in xenografts. Transfection efficiency detected by laser confocal microscope was higher than 80%. The level of miR-155 expression was significantly decreased (P<0.05) in the cells transfected with miR-155 ASO, compared with that in cells transfected with a negative control. After being transfected with miR-155 ASO, the viability of MDA-MB-157 cells was reduced greatly (P<0.05) and the number of apoptotic cells was increased significantly. Additionally, miR-155 ASO inhibited the growth of transplanted tumor in vivo and significantly increased the expression of caspase-3. Taken together, our study revealed that miR-155 ASO can induce cell apoptosis and inhibit cell proliferation in vitro. Moreover, miR-155 ASO could significantly repress tumor growth in vivo, presumably by inducing apoptosis via caspase-3 up-regulation. These findings provide experimental evidence for using miR-155 as a therapeutic target of breast carcinoma.

Application of Joint Detection of AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA in Identification and Diagnosis of Cholangiocarcinoma

Li, Yong,Li, Da-Jiang,Chen, Jian,Liu, Wei,Li, Jian-Wei,Jiang, Peng,Zhao, Xin,Guo, Fei,Li, Xiao-Wu,Wang, Shu-Guang Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2015 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.16 No.8

Objective: To explore the application of joint detection of serum AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA in identification and diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma (CC). Materials and Methods: The levels of serum AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA of both 30 patients with CC and 30 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) were assessed. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to evaluate the diagnostic effects of single and joint detection of those 4 kinds of tumor markers for CC. Results: The levels of serum CA19-9, CA125 and CEA in CC patients were higher than that in HCC patients,whereas that of serum AFP was significantly lower s. The area under ROC curve of single detection of serum AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA were 0.05, 0.86, 0.84 and 0.83, with the optimal cutoff values of 15.4 ng/ml, 125.1 U/ml, 95.7 U/ml and 25.9 ng/ml, correspondingly, and the percentage correct single diagnosis was <79%. With joint detection, the diagnostic effect of combined AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA was the highest, with an area under the ROC curve of 0.94 (95%CI 0.88~0.99). Conclusions: Single detection of serum CA19-9, CA125 and EA is not meaningful. The sensitivity, specificity, the rate of correct diagnosis and the area under ROC curve of joint detection of AFP, CA19-9, CA125 and CEA are highest, indicating that the joint detection of these 4 tumor markers is of great importance in the diagnosis of CC.

Qun Huang,Shu-gang Li,Hui Teng,Yong-guo Jin,Mei-hu Ma,Hong-bo Song 한국식품과학회 2015 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.24 No.6

Angiotensin-I-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory peptides were prepared from ovalbumin using enzyme hydrolysis with pepsin as an enzyme source. Effects of pH, enzyme dosage, substrate concentration, hydrolysis temperature, and time on the degree of hydrolysis and the ACE inhibition rate were investigated using single factor experiments. Preparation conditions for ACE inhibitory peptides were optimized using a response surface design on the base of single factor experiments. Optimum preparation conditions were a substrate concentration of 5.2 g/100 mL of D.W with a pH value of 2.5, an enzyme dosage of 14,000 U/g, and a hydrolysis time of 250 min at 30℃. The ACE inhibition rate was up to 70.55±1.13% under these conditions.
