Background: Exposure to cigarette may affect human health and increase risk of a wide range of diseases including pulmonary diseases, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, lung fibrosis and lung cancer. However, the molecular mechanisms of pathogenesis induced by cigarettes still remain obscure even with extensive studies. With systemic view, we attempted to identify the specific gene modules that might relate to injury caused by cigarette smoke and identify hub genes for potential therapeutic targets or biomarkers from specific gene modules. Materials and Methods: The dataset GSE18344 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) and divided into mouse cigarette smoke exposure and control groups. Subsequently, weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) was used to construct a gene co-expression network for each group and detected specific gene modules of cigarette smoke exposure by comparison. Results: A total of ten specific gene modules were identified only in the cigarette smoke exposure group but not in the control group. Seven hub genes were identified as well, including Fip1l1, Anp32a, Acsl4, Evl, Sdc1, Arap3 and Cd52. Conclusions: Specific gene modules may provide better understanding of molecular mechanisms, and hub genes are potential candidates of therapeutic targets that may possible improve development of novel treatment approaches.

This study has investigated the feasibility of 980-nm low-energy pulsed near-infrared laser stimulationto evoke auditory responses, as well as the effects of radiant exposure and pulse duration on auditoryresponses. In the experiments, a hole was drilled in the basal turn of the cochlea in guinea pigs. An opticalfiber with a 980-nm pulsed infrared laser was inserted into the hole, orientating the spiral ganglion cellsin the cochlea. To model deafness, the tympanic membrane was mechanically damaged. Acousticallyevoked compound action potentials (ACAPs) were recorded before and after deafness, and optically evokedcompound action potentials (OCAPs) were recorded after deafness. Similar spatial selectivity between opticaland acoustical stimulation was found. In addition, OCAP amplitudes increased with radiant exposure,indicating a photothermal mechanism induced by optical stimulation. Furthermore, at a fixed radiantexposure, OCAP amplitudes decreased as pulse duration increased, suggesting that optical stimulation mightbe governed by the time duration over which the energy is delivered. Thus, the current experiments havedemonstrated that a 980-nm pulsed near-infrared laser with low energy can evoke auditory neural responsessimilar to those evoked by acoustical stimulation. This approach could be used to develop optical cochlearimplants.

Zhi-Yong Jiang,Zhong-Qiu Li,Chao-Guan Huang,Jun Zhou,Qiu-Fen Hu,Wen-Xing Liu,Xiang-Zhong Huang,Wei Wang,Li-Zhu Zhang,Fu-Ting Xia 대한화학회 2015 Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society Vol.36 No.2
Bioassay-guided phytochemical investigation on the 90% EtOH extract of Perovskia atriplicifolia resulted in the isolation of eight abietane diterpenoids, including three new ones (1–3). Based on spectroscopic methods involving 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy techniques, mass spectrometry, and optical rotation, the structures of the new compounds (1–3) were unambiguously characterized. Compounds 1–2 and 4–8 were evaluated for their anti-HBV (hepatitis B virus) activity in HepG 2.2.15 cell line. Results suggested rosmadial (8) had the most anti-HBV potency, suppressing the secretion of HBsAg and HBeAg, with IC50 values of 0.09 and 0.34 mM, respectively.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth performance, rumen fermentation parameters and bacterial community of post-weaning dairy calves in response to five diets varying in corn silage (CS) inclusion.Methods: A total of forty Holstein weaned bull calves (80±3 days of age;128.2±5.03 kg at study initiation) were randomized into five groups (8 calves/group) with each receiving one of five dietary treatments offered as total mixed ration in a 123-d feeding study. Dietary treatments were control diet (CON; 0% CS dry matter [DM]); Treatment 1 (T1; 27.2% CS DM); Treatment 2 (T2; 46.5% CS DM); Treatment 3 (T3; 54.8% CS DM); and Treatment 4 (T4; 67.2% CS DM) with all diets balanced for similar protein and energy concentration.Results: Results showed that calves offered CS had greater average daily gain, body length and chest depth growth, meanwhile altered rumen fermentation indicated by decreased rumen acetate concentrations. Principal coordinate analysis showed the rumen bacterial community structure was affected by varying CS inclusion diets. <i>Bacteroidetes</i> and <i>Firmicutes</i> were the predominant bacterial phyla in the calf rumens across all treatments. At the genus level, the abundance of <i>Bacteroidales_RF16_group</i> was increased, whereas <i>Unclassified_ Lachnospiraceae</i> was decreased for calves fed CS. Furthermore, Spearman’s correlation test between the rumen bacteria and rumen fermentation parameters indicated that <i>Bacteroidales_RF16_group</i> and <i>Unclassified Lachnospiraceae</i> were positively correlated with propionate and acetate, respectively.Conclusion: The results of the current study suggested that diet CS inclusion was beneficial for post-weaning dairy calf growth, with 27.2% to 46.5% CS of diet DM recommended to achieve improved growth performance. <i>Bacteroidales_RF16_group</i> and <i>Unclassified Lachnospiraceae</i> play an important role in the rumen fermentation pattern for post-weaning calves fed CS.

An endospore-forming bacterium, designated YT-3T, was isolated from a paddy soil in Yingtan, Jiangxi, China. Cells of strain YT-3T were Gram-positive, rod-shaped, facultative anaerobic, catalase, and oxidase positive. The optimum growth temperature and pH were 30°C (ranged from 15 to 50°C) and 6.5–7.0 (ranged from 3 to 11), respectively. Analysis of the 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain YT-3T was affiliated to the genus Bacillus and displayed the highest similarity to that of Bacillus drentensis JCM 21707T (98.3%), followed by B. ginsengisoli JCM 17335T (97.8%) and B. fumarioli JCM 21708T (97.0%). The similarity of rpoB gene sequence between strain YT-3T and B. drentensis JCM 21707T, B. ginsengisoli JCM 17335T and B. fumarioli JCM 21708T was 80.4%, 81.5%, and 82.1%, respectively. The genomic DNA G + C content was 44.9 mol%. The predominant respiratory quinone was Menaquinone-7, and meso-diaminopimelic acid was present in the peptidoglycan layer of cell wall. The major fatty acids were C15:0 anteiso (36.2%), C14:0 iso (19.6%), C15:0 iso (17.4%), and C16:0 iso (9.8%). The polar lipid profile consisted of diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylglycerol, phospholipids, and ammoniac phospholipids. The DNA-DNA hybridization values between isolate YT-3T and B. drentensis (JCM 21707T), B. ginsengisoli (JCM 17335T), and B. fumarioli (JCM 21708T) were 36.3%, 30.3%, and 25.3%, respectively. On the basis of physiological, genetic and biochemical data, strain YT-3T represented a novel species of the genus Bacillus, for which the name Bacillus ferrooxidans sp. nov was proposed. The type strain is YT-3T (= KCTC 33875T = CCTCC AB 2017049T).
