Hao-Jie Jiang,Chi Gong,Shuai Jiang 사회혁신기업연구원 2024 혁신기업연구 Vol.9 No.1

COVID-19 팬데믹의 영향으로 중국의 미리 포장된 식사 산업이 빠른 성장 단계에 진입하여 소비자들로부터 점점 더 많은 호감을 얻고 있습니다. 이 연구는 중국 소비자들이 미리 포장된 식사를 구매하는 데 영향을 미치는 요인을 탐색하는 것을 목표로 합니다. 우리는 계획된 행동 이론(TPB)과 소비자 혁신성을 사용하여 구조방정식 모델을 구축했습니다. 이 정량적 연구는 비확률 샘플링 온라인 설문조사를 통해 293개의 유효 데이터 포인트를 수집하고 SPSS 27.0 및 AMOS 26.0을 사용하여 모델 검증을 수행했습니다. 결과는 소비자의 도구적 및 정서적 태도가 구매 의도에 중요하게 긍정적인 영향을 미친다는 것을 보여줍니다. 서술적 규범도 구매 의도에 중요한 긍정적인 영향을 미칩니다, 반면 지시적 규범은 중요한 영향을 보이지 않습니다. 소비자의 자기 통제력과 외부 조건은 모두 구매 의도와 행동에 중요한 긍정적인 영향을 미칩니다. 구매 의도는 구매 행동에 중요한 영향을 미치며 자기 통제력과 외부 조건에서의 매개 효과를 가집니다. 소비자 혁신성은 구매 의도와 행동 사이에서 중요한 조절 역할을 합니다. 제품 디자인과 홍보를 강화하기 위해 소비자들에게 매력을 높이는 것이 필수적입니다. 추가 연구를 위한 제안이 제시됩니다. Owing to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the pre-made food industry in China has entered a rapid growth phase, gaining increasing favor from consumers. This study aims to explore the factors influencing Chinese consumers' purchase of pre-made food. We employed the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and consumer innovativeness to construct a structural equation model. This quantitative study gathered 293 valid data points through non-probability sampling online surveys and employed SPSS 27.0 and AMOS 26.0 for model validation. Results reveal that consumers' instrumental and affective attitudes significantly positively influence purchase intention. Descriptive norms also exert a significant positive impact on purchase intention, while injunctive norms do not show a significant effect. Consumers' self-control and external conditions both have significant positive influences on purchase intention and behavior. Purchase intention significantly affects purchase behavior and mediates effects in self-control and external conditions. Consumer innovativeness plays a significant moderating role between purchase intention and behavior. To enhance product design and promotion, it is imperative to increase attractiveness to consumers. Suggestions for further research are presented.

BMB : Reports ; An inhibitory role of NEK6 in TGFβ/Smad signaling pathway

( Jie Zuo ),( Haijie Ma ),( Hao Cai ),( Yanhua Wu ),( Wei Jiang ),( Long Yu ) 생화학분자생물학회(구 한국생화학분자생물학회) 2015 BMB Reports Vol.48 No.8

The NEK6 (NIMA-related kinases 6) is reported to play po-tential roles in tumorigenesis. Although it is suggested to function in several cellular pathways, the underlying mechanism in tumorigenesis is still largely unknown. In the present study, we discovered interaction of NEK6 with Smad4, a key member of transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ) pathway. Over-expression of NEK6 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell lines suppresses TGFβ- mediated transcription activity in a kinase activity-dependent manner. In addition, NEK6 suppresses the cell growth arrest induced by TGFβ. Mechanically, NEK6 blocks nuclear translocation of Smad4, which is essential for TGF β function. Moreover, we identified that NEK6 could be regulated by TGFβ and hypoxia. Our study sheds new light on the roles of NEK6 in canonical TGFβ/Smad pathway and tum-origenesis.

A multi-scale model linking microstructure and macro electric behaviors of ferroelectric field effect transistor

Limei Jiang,Xin Feng,Hao Ming,Qiong Yang,Jie Jiang,Min Liao 한국물리학회 2020 Current Applied Physics Vol.20 No.3

A multi-scale model linking microstructure and macro electric properties of ferroelectric field effect transistor (FeFET) is established based on the phase field method and Maxwell's total current law. The simulation results confirm that the channel current of FeFET is modulated by local interface ferroelectric domains which are easily affected by the microstructure. Using the developed transistor model, we investigate the effects of location of dislocation sites on hysteresis behavior of ferroelectric film and electric behavior of FeFET. Interfacial dislocations have strong effects on hysteresis behavior than internal dislocations since the former can induce imprint behavior while the latter only reduce the coercive field. However, due to the c-domains at the interface, the effects of interfacial and internal dislocations on FeFET electrical properties are the exact opposite. The interfacial dislocations just increase the voltage required to toggle the channel while the internal dislocations can induce disappearance of the FeFET memory window.

Zhang, Lei,Liu, Yu-Jie,Jiang, Shuang-Quan,Cui, Hao,Li, Zi-Yao,Tian, Jia-Wei Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.19

Purpose: The aim of the study was to evaluate the correlation of ultrasound features with breast cancer molecular status. Materials and Methods: A retrospective review was performed of ultrasound findings in 263 patients diagnosed with breast invasive ductal carcinoma for comparison with immunohistochemistric results were obtained from each lesion. Relationships between ultrasound findings and molecular status were investigated by using multiple regression analysis by means of stepwise logistic regression. Differences in ultrasound criteria were assessed among women with different molecular status. Results: ER positivity was associated with small size, lobulate, angular or spiculated margin contours, absence of calcification, posterior tumor shadowing and low elasticity score; PR positivity was associated with small size, lobulate or angular or spiculated margin contours and absence of calcification; HER2 positivity was associated with presence of calcification and absence of any echogenic halo. The calculated models of predicted molecular status were accurate and discriminating with AUCs of 0.78, 0.74, and 0.74, respectively. Conclusions: Breast cnacer ultrasound features show some correlation with the molecular status. These models may help to expand the scope of ultrasound in predicting tumor biology.

Yu-liang Lin,Jie Jin,Zhi-hao Jiang,Wei Liu,Hai-dong Liu,Rou-feng Li,Xiang Liu 국제구조공학회 2022 Structural Engineering and Mechanics, An Int'l Jou Vol.84 No.5

A gravity wall combined with an anchoring lattice frame (a combined retaining structure) is adopted at a typical engineering site at Dali-Ruili Railway Line China. Where, the combined retaining structure supports a soil deposit covering on different inclined rock slopes. With an aim to investigate and compare the effects of inclined rock slopes on the response of combined retaining structure under seismic excitation, three groups of shaking table tests are conducted. The rock slopes are shaped as planar surfaces inclined at angles of 20°, 30°, and 40° with the horizontal, respectively. The shaking table tests are supplemented by dynamic numerical simulations. The results regarding the horizontal acceleration response, vertical acceleration response, permanent displacement mode, and axial anchor force are comparatively examined. The acceleration response is more susceptible to outer structural profile of combined retaining structure than to inclined angle of rock slope. The permanent displacement decreases when the inclined angle of the rock slope increases within a range of 20°-40°. A critical inclined angle of rock slope exists within a range of 20°-40°, and induces the largest axial anchor force in the combined retaining structure.

Intravenous Tenecteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke Within 4.5–24 Hours of Onset (ROSE-TNK): A Phase 2, Randomized, Multicenter Study

Wang Lu,Dai Ying-Jie,Cui Yu,Zhang Hong,Jiang Chang-Hao,Duan Ying-Jie,Zhao Yong,Feng Ye-Fang,Geng Shi-Mei,Zhang Zai-Hui,Lu Jiang,Zhang Ping,Zhao Li-Wei,Zhao Hang,Ma Yu-Tong,Song Cheng-Guang,Zhang Yi,Ch 대한뇌졸중학회 2023 Journal of stroke Vol.25 No.3

Background and Purpose Intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) efficacy has not been well demonstrated in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) beyond 4.5 hours after onset. This study aimed to determine the effect of intravenous TNK for AIS within 4.5 to 24 hours of onset. Methods In this pilot trial, eligible AIS patients with diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) mismatch were randomly allocated to intravenous TNK (0.25 mg/kg) or standard care within 4.5–24 hours of onset. The primary endpoint was excellent functional outcome at 90 days (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] score of 0–1). The primary safety endpoint was symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH). Results Of the randomly assigned 80 patients, the primary endpoint occurred in 52.5% (21/40) of TNK group and 50.0% (20/40) of control group, with no significant difference (unadjusted odds ratio, 1.11; 95% confidence interval 0.46–2.66; <i>P</i>=0.82). More early neurological improvement occurred in TNK group than in control group (11 vs. 3, <i>P</i>=0.03), but no significant differences were found in other secondary endpoints, such as mRS 0–2 at 90 days, shift analysis of mRS at 90 days, and change in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at 24 hours and 7 days. There were no cases of sICH in this trial; however, asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhage occurred in 3 of the 40 patients (7.5%) in the TNK group. Conclusion This phase 2, randomized, multicenter study suggests that intravenous TNK within 4.5–24 hours of onset may be safe and feasible in AIS patients with a DWI-FLAIR mismatch.

SMYD3-associated pathway is involved in the anti-tumor effects of sulforaphane on gastric carcinoma cells

Qing-Qing Dong,Qiu-Tong Wang,Lei Wang,Ya-Xin Jiang,Mei-Ling Liu,Hai-Jie Hu,Yong Liu,Hao Zhou,Hong-Peng He,Tong-Cun Zhang,Xuegang Luo 한국식품과학회 2018 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.27 No.4

Sulforaphane (SFN), a natural compound derived from cruciferous vegetables, has been proved to possess potent anti-cancer activity. SMYD3 is a histone methyltransferase which is closely related to the proliferation and migration of cancer cells. This study showed that SFN could dose-dependently induce cell cycle arrest, stimulate apoptosis, and inhibit proliferation and migration of gastric carcinoma cells. Accompanied with these anticancer effects, SMYD3 and its downstream genes, myosin regulatory light chain 9, and cysteine-rich angiogenic inducer 61, was downregulated by SFN. Furthermore, overexpression of SMYD3 via transfection could abolish the effects of SFN, suggesting that SMYD3 might be an important mediator of SFN. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing the role of SMYD3 in the anti-cancer of SFN. These findings might throw light on the development of novel anti-cancer drugs and functional food using SFN-rich cruciferous vegetables.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to study the protective effect and influence of sodium hyaluronate (Na- HA) on mRNA expression of peroxisome proliferators-activated receptor gamma (PPAR-γ) in cartilage of rabbit osteoarthritis (OA) model. Materials and Methods: Forty eight white rabbits were randomly divided into A, B, and C groups. Group A was normal control group, B and C groups underwent unilateral anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT). The rabbits in group B were injected normal saline after ACLT; and Group C received intraarticular1% sodium hyaluronate (HA) injection 5 weeks after surgery, 0.3 mL once a week. At 11th week after surgery, all the rabbits were sacrificed. The cartilage changes on the medial femoral condyles were graded separately. Cartilage sections were stained with safranin-O and HE, and messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of PPAR-γ was detected by using real time polymerase chain reaction (Real Time-PCR). Results: Cartilage degeneration in group B was significantly more severe than in A and C injection group. The grey value of Safranin- O of B group was higher than A and C groups. Expression of PPAR-γ mRNA in group B was higher than group A and C. Conclusion: This study shows that Na-HA has a protective effect on articular cartilage degeneration, and the inhibitory effect on the PPAR-γ mRNA expression may be one of therapeutic mechanism of Na-HA.

BMB Reports : Dickkopf-1 is involved in BMP9-induced osteoblast differentiation of C3H10T1/2 mesenchymal stem cells

( Liangbo Lin ),( Quanhe Qiu ),( Nian Zhou ),( Wen Dong ),( Jieliang Shen ),( Wei Jiang ),( Ji Fang ),( Jie Hao ),( Zhenming Hu ) 생화학분자생물학회(구 한국생화학분자생물학회) 2016 BMB Reports Vol.49 No.3

Bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) is a potent inducer of osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. The Wnt antagonist Dickkopf-1 (Dkk1) is involved in skeletal development and bone remodeling. Here, we investigated the role of Dkk1 in BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation of MSCs. We found that overexpression of BMP9 induced Dkk1 expression in a dose-dependent manner, which was reduced by the P38 inhibitor SB203580 but not the ERK inhibitor PD98059. Moreover, Dkk1 dramatically decreased not only BMP9-induced alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity but also the expression of osteocalcin (OCN) and osteopontin (OPN) and matrix mineralization of C3H10T1/2 cells. Furthermore, exogenous Dkk1 expression inhibited Wnt/β-catenin signaling induced by BMP9. Our findings indicate that Dkk1 negatively regulates BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation through inhibition of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and it could be used to optimize the therapeutic use of BMP9 and for bone tissue engineering.
