This study was conducted to assess the effects of organic and inorganic copper on performance in growing pigs. A total of 100 pigs, average age 63 d and initial body weight 21.46${\pm}$1.13 kg, were assigned to five treatment groups. Dietary treatments included i) CON (basal diet, 0 ppm Cu), ii) T1 (basal diet with 67 ppm Cu as cupric sulfate, $CuSO_4$), iii) T2 (basal diet with 134 ppm Cu as $CuSO_4$), iv) T3 (basal diet with 67 ppm Cu as cupric methionate, CuMet) and v) T4 (basal diet with 134 ppm Cu as CuMet). Throughout the entire experimental period, ADG (average daily gain), ADFI (average daily feed intake) and G/F (gain: feed) ratios showed no significant differences. The dry matter digestibility was improved in the T1, T2, T3, and T4 treatments (p<0.05), as compared with CON. Nitrogen digestibility was improved in the T3 treatment group as compared with CON (p<0.05). As compared with the T1 treatment group, fecal pH values were improved in the CON, T3, and T4 treatment groups (p<0.05). Fecal Cu concentrations were significantly lower in the CON, T3, and T4 treatment groups than in T1 and T2 (p<0.05). The incidence of diarrhea was reduced when the pigs were fed on the T2, T3, and T4 diets as compared with CON. In conclusion, diets supplemented with 67 or 134 ppm Cu as CuMet may prove effective in improving nutrient digestibility and fecal pH value in growing pigs, and fecal Cu concentrations may be reduced by CuMet supplementation.

In a trial involving 240pigs, the proximate composition, physico-chemical properites, color, amino acid composition and fatty acid composition of loin muscle were investigated in feeding various finished pig fees. The treatments included feeding control) the low-nutrient density diet(2,960㎈/㎏ ME, 12.25% CP, 0.41% lysine and 0.70% Ca), T1) the medium-nutrient density diet(3,220㎈/㎏ ME, 15.50% CP, 0.87% lysine and 0.90% Ca) and T2) the hight-nutrient density diet(3,350㎈/㎏ ME, 17.50% CP, 1.05% lysine and 0.90% Ca). The crude ash contents of T1 were significantly(p<0.05) higher than those of control and T2. The ?_(u) of T2 were significantly higher than those of control and T1, but cooking loss were significantly(p<0.05) lower than those of control. In compositions amino acid, aspartic acid, threonine, iso-leucine and histidine of T2 were higher than those of control, but proline and glycine were significantly(p<0.05) lower then those of control. The oleic acid(18:1) contents of control were significantly higher than those of T1 and T2, but the contents of linoleic acid(C18:2) and arachidonic(C20:4) acid were significantly(p<0.05) lower. Inconclusion, the results of the experiments suggest that the high-nutrient density diet for pigs tended to improve the postmortem ?_(u) and cooking loss.

<P>Control of tuberculosis worldwide depends on our understanding of human immune mechanisms, which combat the infection. Acquired T cell responses are critical for host defense against microbial pathogens, yet the mechanisms by which they act in humans remain unclear. We report that T cells, by the release of interferon-γ (IFN-γ), induce autophagy, phagosomal maturation, the production of antimicrobial peptides such as cathelicidin, and antimicrobial activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis in human macrophages via a vitamin D-dependent pathway. IFN-γ induced the antimicrobial pathway in human macrophages cultured in vitamin D-sufficient sera, but not in sera from African-Americans that have lower amounts of vitamin D and who are more susceptible to tuberculosis. In vitro supplementation of vitamin D-deficient serum with 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 restored IFN-γ-induced antimicrobial peptide expression, autophagy, phagosome-lysosome fusion, and antimicrobial activity. These results suggest a mechanism in which vitamin D is required for acquired immunity to overcome the ability of intracellular pathogens to evade macrophage-mediated antimicrobial responses. The present findings underscore the importance of adequate amounts of vitamin D in all human populations for sustaining both innate and acquired immunity against infection.</P>

Field-induced quantum critical point in the pressure-induced superconductor CeRhIn₅

Park, T.,Tokiwa, Y.,Ronning, F.,Lee, H.,Bauer, E. D.,Movshovich, R.,Thompson, J. D. WILEY-VCH Verlag 2010 Physica Status Solidi. B Vol.247 No.3

<P>When subjected to pressure, the prototypical heavy-fermion antiferromagnet CeRhIn<SUB>5</SUB> becomes superconducting, forming a broad dome of superconductivity (SC) centred around 2.35 GPa (=P2) with maximal T<SUB>c</SUB> of 2.3 K. Above the superconducting dome, the normal state shows strange metallic behaviours, including a divergence in the specific heat and a sub-T-linear electrical resistivity. The discovery of a field-induced magnetic phase that coexists with SC for a range of pressures P ≤ P2 has been interpreted as evidence for a quantum phase transition, which could explain the non-Fermi-liquid behaviour observed in the normal state. Here we report electrical resistivity measurements of CeRhIn<SUB>5</SUB> under magnetic field at P2, where the resistivity is sub-T-linear for temperatures above T<SUB>c</SUB> (or T<SUB>FL</SUB>) and a T<SUP>2</SUP>-coefficient A found below T<SUB>FL</SUB> diverges as H<SUB>c2</SUB> is approached. These results are similar to the field-induced quantum critical compound CeCoIn<SUB>5</SUB> and confirm the presence of a quantum critical point in the pressure-induced superconductor CeRhIn<SUB>5</SUB>.

First-to-second-order magnetic-phase transformation in La_0.7Ca_0.3-xBa_xMnO₃ exhibiting large magnetocaloric effect

Phan, T.L.,Dang, N.T.,Ho, T.A.,Manh, T.V.,Thanh, T.D.,Jung, C.U.,Lee, B.W.,Le, A.T.,Phan, A.D.,Yu, S.C. Elsevier Sequoia 2016 Journal of alloys and compounds Vol.657 No.-

We have prepared polycrystalline samples La<SUB>0.7</SUB>Ca<SUB>0.3-x</SUB>Ba<SUB>x</SUB>MnO<SUB>3</SUB> (x = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.075 and 0.1) by solid-state reaction, and then studied their magnetic properties and magnetocaloric (MC) effect based on magnetization versus temperature and magnetic-field (M-H-T) measurements. Experimental results reveal the easiness in tuning the Curie temperature (T<SUB>C</SUB>) from 260 to about 300 K by increasing Ba-doping concentration (x) from 0 to 0.1. Under an applied field H = 50 kOe, maximum magnetic-entropy changes around T<SUB>C</SUB> of the samples can be tuned in the range between 6 and 11 J kg<SUP>-1</SUP> K<SUP>-1</SUP>, corresponding to refrigerant-capacity values ranging from 190 to 250 J kg<SUP>-1</SUP>. These values are comparable to those of some conventional MC materials, and reveal the applicability of La<SUB>0.7</SUB>Ca<SUB>0.3-x</SUB>Ba<SUB>x</SUB>MnO<SUB>3</SUB> materials in magnetic refrigeration. Analyses of the critical behavior based on the Banerjee criteria, Arrott plots and scaling hypothesis for M-H-T data prove a magnetic-phase separation when Ba-doping concentration changes. In the doping region x = 0.05-0.075, the samples exhibits the crossover of first- and second-order phase transitions with the values of critical exponents β and γ close to those expected for the tricritical mean-field theory. The samples with x < 0.05 and x > 0.075 exhibit first- and second-order transitions, respectively. More detailed analyses related to the Griffiths singularity, the critical behavior for different magnetic-field intervals started from 10 kOe, and the magnetic-ordering parameter n = dLn|ΔS<SUB>m</SUB>|/dLnH (where ΔS<SUB>m</SUB> is the magnetic-entropy change) demonstrate magnetic inhomogeneities and multicritical phenomena existing in the samples.

<P>Abstract</P><P>Aims </P><P>Growing evidence supports the hypothesis that chronic low-grade inflammation related to innate immunity may play an important role in the pathophysiology of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The monocyte differentiation antigen CD14 gene (<I>CD14</I>) acts as the receptor for lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and augments monocyte/macrophage inflammatory responses.</P><P>Methods </P><P>We have sequenced the gene, including all exons, exon/intron boundaries, and the −1.5 kb of the 5′ flanking region. Two common loci (minor allele frequency > 0.05) were genotyped in 775 T2DM patients and 316 control subjects recruited in the Korean T2DM Study.</P><P>Results </P><P>Eight polymorphisms, including four non-synonymous forms, were identified in <I>CD14</I>. No polymorphisms were found in association with T2DM. However, one common promoter SNP (<I>−260T>C</I>) was significantly associated with both the serum triglyceride level (TG) and body mass index (BMI) in non-diabetic control subjects. Individuals who carried the minor allele (C) had higher TG levels (1.65 ± 0.81 vs. 1.46 ± 0.80 mmol/l; <I>P</I> = 0.0007) and BMI (23.96 ± 3.00 vs. 23.28 ± 3.22 kg/m<SUP>2</SUP>; <I>P</I> = 0.04) as compared with subjects carrying T/T genotypes.</P><P>Conclusion </P><P>Our data suggest that lipid metabolism and obesity, important pathophysiological elements of T2DM and the metabolic syndrome, are regulated by complex mechanisms that include the CD14 gene polymorphism-mediated genetic propensity to non-specific inflammatory responses.</P>
