Lü,, Minfeng,Jo, Hongil,Oh, Seung-Jin,Lee, Suheon,Choi, Kwang-Yong,Yu, Yang,Ok, Kang Min ACS AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY 2017 Inorganic Chemistry Vol. No.

<P>Three new quaternary lithium metal tellurites, Li3MTe4O11 (M = Al, Ga, and Fe), have been synthesized through hydrothermal and solid-state reactions by heating a mixture of LiOH center dot H2O, TeO2, and M2O3. The structures of the title compounds have been determined by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. Li3MTe4O11 reveal three-dimensional (3D) frameworks that consist of MO6 octahedra, TeO3 trigonal pyramids, and TeO4 polyhedra. The variable coordination mode of Te4+ within the framework leads to the formation of 1D channels that host Li+ cations on both tetrahedral and octahedral sites. The bulk and grain boundary Li+ ion conductivities for a Li3FeTe4O11 pellet in open air are estimated to be 1.0 x 10(-4) and 2.7 x 10(-6) S cm(-1), respectively, at room temperature from the impedance profile analysis. A lower activation energy of 19.9 kJ mol(-1) is obtained for the system, which is similar to that of Li10GeP2S12 (24 kJ mol(-1)). Detailed characterizations such as thermal, spectroscopic, and magnetic properties for the reported materials are also reported.</P>

The effect of vitamin D supplementation on individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is inconclusive. We aimed to conduct a meta-analysis of the available randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to explore whether vitamin D supplementation can improve core symptoms and coexisting conditions in children with ASD. Data were obtained by searching the PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, CINAHL and Cochrane Library databases up to February 2022 following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. Using a random-effects model, mean differences with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were calculated through a meta-analysis. There were eight RCTs with 266 children with ASD in the present review, among which six RCTs were included in the meta-analysis. Children who received vitamin D supplementation showed a significant improvement in stereotypical behavior scores (pooled mean difference (MD): −1.39; 95% CI: −2.7, −0.07; p = 0.04) with low heterogeneity (I2 = 34%), and there was a trend toward decreased total scores on the Social Responsiveness Scale (SRS) and Childhood Autism Rating Scale (CARS, p = 0.05); however, there were no other significant differences in the core symptoms of ASD and coexisting conditions between groups as measured by the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC). Vitamin D supplementation appears to improve stereotypical behaviors but does not improve other core symptoms and coexisting conditions. Further randomized controlled trials with large sample sizes and individualized doses are needed.

The MAP Kinase Kinase Gene AbSte7 Regulates Multiple Aspects of Alternaria brassicicola Pathogenesis

Lu, Kai,Zhang, Min,Yang, Ran,Zhang, Min,Guo, Qinjun,Baek, Kwang-Hyun,Xu, Houjuan The Korean Society of Plant Pathology 2019 Plant Pathology Journal Vol.35 No.2

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades in fungi are ubiquitously conserved signaling pathways that regulate stress responses, vegetative growth, pathogenicity, and many other developmental processes. Previously, we reported that the AbSte7 gene, which encodes a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MAPKK) in Alternaria brassicicola, plays a central role in pathogenicity against host cabbage plants. In this research, we further characterized the role of AbSte7 in the pathogenicity of this fungus using ${\Delta}AbSte7$ mutants. Disruption of the AbSte7 gene of A. brassicicola reduced accumulation of metabolites toxic to the host plant in liquid culture media. The ${\Delta}AbSte7$ mutants could not efficiently detoxify cruciferous phytoalexin brassinin, possibly due to reduced expression of the brassinin hydrolase gene involved in detoxifying brassinin. Disruption of the AbSte7 gene also severely impaired fungal detoxification of reactive oxygen species. AbSte7 gene disruption reduced the enzymatic activity of cell walldegrading enzymes, including cellulase, ${\beta}$-glucosidase, pectin methylesterase, polymethyl-galacturonase, and polygalacturonic acid transeliminase, during host plant infection. Altogether, the data strongly suggest the MAPKK gene AbSte7 plays a pivotal role in A. brassicicola during host infection by regulating multiple steps, and thus increasing pathogenicity and inhibiting host defenses.

Essential oils are increasingly of interest for use as novel drugs acting as antimicrobial and antiviral agents. In the present study, we report the in vitro antiviral activities of 29 essential oils, extracted from Chinese indigenous aromatic plants, against the tobacco mosaic virus (TMV). Of these essential oils, those oils from ginger, lemon, tea tree, tangerine peel, artemisia, and lemongrass effected a more than 50% inhibition of TMV at 100 μg/ml. In addition, the mode of antiviral action of the active essential oils was also determined. Essential oils isolated from artemisia and lemongrass possessed potent inactivation and curative effects in vivo and had a directly passivating effect on TMV infection in a dose-dependent manner. However, all other active essential oils exhibited a moderate protective effect in vivo. The chemical constitutions of the essential oils from ginger, lemon, tea tree, tangerine peel, artemisia, and lemongrass were identified by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The major components of these essential oils were α-zingiberene (35.21%), limonene (76.25%), terpinen-4-ol (41.20%), limonene (80.95%), 1,8-cineole (27.45%), and terpinolene (10.67%). The curative effects of 10 individual compounds from the active essential oils on TMV infection were also examined in vivo. The compounds from citronellal, limonene, 1,8-cineole, and α-zingiberene effected a more than 40% inhibition rate for TMV infection, and the other compounds demonstrated moderate activities at 320 μg/ml in vivo. There results indicate that the essential oils isolated from artemisia and lemongrass, and the individual compound citronellal, have the potential to be used as an effective alternative for the treatment of tobacco plants infected with TMV under greenhouse conditions.

Synthesis of novel hierarchically porous Fe3O4@MgAl–LDH magnetic microspheres and its superb adsorption properties of dye from water

Lu Lu,Jia Li,Dickon H.L. Ng,Ping Yang,Peng Song,Min Zuo 한국공업화학회 2017 Journal of Industrial and Engineering Chemistry Vol.46 No.-

Hierarchically porous Fe3O4@MgAl–LDH magnetic microspheres were reported as novel efficientadsorbent for the removal of anionic dye from water. The as-prepared microspheres had vertically/slantly/horizontally oriented platelets-coated morphology, and exhibited superb adsorption capacity of813.0 mg/g for Congo red (CR), which was the highest reported value of magnetic adsorbents. Theadsorption kinetics and isotherm of CR on microspheres followed the pseudo-second-order andLangmuir model, respectively, and the adsorption processes were spontaneous and endothermic innature. The adsorbed samples could be regenerated by methanol, and easily magnetically separated fromaqueous solution. The synthesized materials might act as excellent adsorbents for environmentalprocesses.

Learning together: Teacher Student Cooperation in Translation Technology Course

Lu Min 한국외국어대학교 통번역연구소 2019 한국외국어대학교 통번역연구소 학술대회 Vol.2019 No.07

In recent years, experts, scholars and teachers have paid more and more attention to the importance of learning translation technology in translation teaching. Translation teachers are usually English majors and lack of knowledge of technology. They generally find it difficult to teach the course of translation technology. For fear of poor teaching effect, they are reluctant to teach this course. By using research means of classroom observation, questionnaire and interview, this paper studies the cooperative between the teacher and 21 postgraduate students majored in translation in the course of translation technology. The main findings include: the teacher should introduce external resources to students, such as the professional presentation given by staff in translation software enterprises; the cooperative learning mode between the teacher and students alleviates the psychological pressure of the teacher and the workload of lecture preparation. Students report that the way of learning together with the teacher who knows little translation technology does not have a negative impact on their learning; if the students want to develop the habit of using translation technology in translation, they need to be given more practice opportunities.

LU MIN,CHANG XIN,FANG HUI-ZHI,LI ZI-LAN,REN QIAN,YANG HUA,YANG JHI-ZIAN,ZHANG GUO-YI,ZHANG BEI 한국물리학회 2004 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.45 No.3

The etch stop process of SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) over CeO2 in Inductively Coupled Plasma Reactive Ion Etching (ICP-RIE) is reported in this paper. The etch stop of ferroelectric thin lm on a silicon surface without damage is important for the self-aligned gate structure process in the fabrication of the single-transistor-type ferroelectric random access memory. A high vertical etching angle is also necessary for high integration. We investigated the etch rate of SBT and of Si and CeO2 which were used as a buer layer to improve the interface between SBT and silicon, with various Ar/Cl2 gas mixtures, ICP powers and RF bias powers in ICP-RIE. The highest etching selectivity of SBT/CeO2 and SBT/Si was 6.8 and 0.3 respectively. The vertical angle of SBT was 82 degrees. SEM images and XPS surface analyses showed good etch stop characteristics of the buer layer without damage to the silicon surface.

3R Variant of Thymidylate Synthase 5'-untranslated Enhanced Region Contributes to Colorectal Cancer Risk: A Meta-analysis

Lu, Min,Sun, Luhaoran,Yang, Jing,Li, Yue-Yao Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2012 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.13 No.6

Background: Studies investigating the association of 2R/3R polymorphism in the thymidylate synthase 5'-untranslated enhanced region (TSER) and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk have reported conflicting results. Thus, a meta-analysis was performed to summarize the data on the potential association. Methods: Pubmed, Embase and CBM databases were searched for all available studies. Links between the TSER 2R/3R polymorphism and CRC risk were estimated by odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Results: Seven case-control studies with a total of 2723 cases and 4030 controls were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that the 3R variant of TSER 2R/3R polymorphism contributes to CRC risk in two comparison models (OR 3R vs. 2R =1.10, 95%CI 1.02-1.18, P = 0.015; OR Homozygote comparison model = 1.22 1.04-1.43, 95%CI 1.04-1.43, P = 0.012). Subgroup analyses by ethnicity further demonstrated a contribution in Caucasians with three comparison models (OR 3R vs. 2R = 1.10, 95%CI 1.02-1.19, P = 0.015; OR Homozygote comparison model = 1.21, 95%CI 1.03-1.41, P = 0.019; OR Recessive comparison model = 1.18, 95%CI 1.05-1.33, P = 0.008). However, the association in the Asian population was still uncertain due to the limited data (all P values were more than 0.05). Conclusions: Our meta-analysis suggests that the 3R variant of Thymidylate synthase 5'-untranslated enhanced region 2R/3R polymorphism contributes to gastric cancer risk in the Caucasian population, while any association in Asian populations needs further study.
