Sentiment analysis in news is different from normal text sentiment analysis. News usually have a specific topic, a focus semantic emotion, therefore, this paper, based on the principal of using Emotion Dependency Tuple (EDT) as the basic unit of news emotion analysis, resolves topic sentiment analysis in news into three progressive sub-problem, namely, topic sentence recognition, EDT extraction and topic sentiment analysis. We use an improved TF-IDF and cross entropy to extract feature set of topics. Then, based on space vector model, calculate the topic association of a sentence and extract topic sentence. Finally, we construct topic sentence based on EDT and complete clustering of news topic sentiment. This method is evaluated using COAE2014 dataset, and differential means shows that our results close to the best results. This shows that the topic based EDT could effectively improve performance of sentiment analysis in news.

Doxorubicin (DOX) plays an important part in lymphoma treatment. However, various side effects on normal tissues restrict its clinical use. Nanocarriers connected by Gly–Phe–Leu–Gly (GFLG) can be equipped with the advantages of nanoparticles (NPs), their enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect, and surface modifiability. Nanocarriers can also be specifically enzymatically hydrolyzed by cathepsin (Cath) B, a kind of enzyme highly expressed in tumor cells. In this work, we proposed a novel drug delivery system comprising GFLG conjugated with copper sulfide (CuS) NPs loaded with DOX. The system, designated as CuS-GFLG-DOX, could be used for NP-based targeted combination chemotherapy. Results showed that the drug delivery system had an appropriate diameter, good dispersibility, high encapsulation efficiency and high drug loading. The system also exhibited an excellent targeting of lymphoma cells and an enhanced antitumor activity. The possible pathway to induce cytotoxic effects was Bcl-2/caspase-mediated apoptosis pathway. In conclusion, CuS-GFLG-DOX could precisely deliver drugs to lymphoma cells and could be a novel and promising therapeutic option for lymphoma.

Objective To explore the efficacy and safety of clonidine adhesive patch in Tourette syndrome (TS) patients with comorbid attentiondeficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).Methods This study was conducted on a sample of children and adolescents with TS who had comorbid ADHD between May 2012 and March 2015. The patients were diagnosed according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition, and were randomly assigned to four different dose groups: 1.0 mg/week, 1.5 mg/week, 2.0 mg/week and placebo group, and the symptom was evaluated by Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham Rating Scale, Version IV (SNAP-IV) and Yale Global Tic Severity Scale scales every 2 weeks. The primary outcome was tic disorders (TD) effective rate at week 8.Results One hundred and twenty-seven TS patients with comorbid ADHD in 2.0 mg/week (n=35), 1.5 mg/week (n=27), 1.0 mg/week (n=36) and placebo groups (n=29) were included in this subgroup analysis. The TD effective rate of the 2.0 mg, 1.5 mg, and 1.0 mg groups at week 8 were significantly better than that in placebo group (85.7%, 81.5%, and 86.1% vs. 20.7%, all p<0.0001). All groups demonstrated significant improvements in SNAP-IV total scale scores compared to baseline (p=0.0004), with treatment groups showing only a trend for better performance compared to placebo group at week 8, without statistical differences (22.1±15.41, 21.3±11.96, and 21.2±12.48 vs. 26.0±13.37, p=0.3385). A total of 9 adverse reactions occurred, all recovered spontaneously without additional medication.Conclusion Clonidine adhesive patch could safely and effectively reduce the tic symptoms of TS patients with comorbid ADHD, and might be potentially helpful in the ADHD symptoms control.

Integration and long distance axonal regeneration in the central nervous system from transplanted primitive neural stem cells.

<P>Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in devastating motor and sensory deficits secondary to disrupted neuronal circuits and poor regenerative potential. Efforts to promote regeneration through cell extrinsic and intrinsic manipulations have met with limited success. Stem cells represent an as yet unrealized therapy in SCI. Recently, we identified novel culture methods to induce and maintain primitive neural stem cells (pNSCs) from human embryonic stem cells. We tested whether transplanted human pNSCs can integrate into the CNS of the developing chick neural tube and injured adult rat spinal cord. Following injection of pNSCs into the developing chick CNS, pNSCs integrated into the dorsal aspects of the neural tube, forming cell clusters that spontaneously differentiated into neurons. Furthermore, following transplantation of pNSCs into the lesioned rat spinal cord, grafted pNSCs survived, differentiated into neurons, and extended long distance axons through the scar tissue at the graft-host interface and into the host spinal cord to form terminal-like structures near host spinal neurons. Together, these findings suggest that pNSCs derived from human embryonic stem cells differentiate into neuronal cell types with the potential to extend axons that associate with circuits of the CNS and, more importantly, provide new insights into CNS integration and axonal regeneration, offering hope for repair in SCI.</P>

Strain Improvement and Metabolic Flux Modeling of Wild-type and Mutant Alcaligenes sp. NX-3 for Synthesis of Exopolysaccharide Welan Gum

Hui Li,Hong Xu,Sha Li,Hao Xu,Chaojiang Guo,Pingkai Ouyang,Hanjie Ying 한국생물공학회 2010 Biotechnology and Bioprocess Engineering Vol.15 No.5

Low-energy nitrogen ion beam implantation technique was used for the strain improvement of Alcaligenes sp. NX-3 for the production of exopolysaccharide welan gum. A high welan gum producing mutant, Alcaligenes sp. NX-3-1, was obtained through 20 keV N+ ion beam irradiation. Starting at a concentration of 50 g/L of glucose, mutant NX-3-1 produced 25.0 g/L of welan gum after 66 h of cultivation in a 7.5 L bioreactor, which was 34.4% higher than that produced by the wild-type strain. The results of metabolic flux analysis showed that the glucose-6-phosphate and acetyl coenzyme A nodes were the principle and flexible nodes, respectively. At the glucose-6-phosphate node, the fraction of carbon measured from glucose-6-phosphate to glucose-1-phosphate was enhanced after mutagenesis, which indicated that more flux was used to synthesize welan gum in the mutant. By analyzing the activities of related enzymes in the biosynthetic pathway of sugar nucleotides essential for welan gum production, we found that the specific activities of phosphoglucomutase, UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase,UDP-glucose dehydrogenase, and dTDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase in the mutant strain were higher than those in the wild-type strain. These improvements in enzyme activities could be due to the affected of ion beam implantation.

Potential industrial application of Actinobacillus succinogenes NJ113 for pyruvic acid production by microaerobic fermentation

Ke-quan Chen,Zhen Wang,Wen Xiao,Alie Zhang,Hanxiao Ying,Ping-Kai Ouyang 한국화학공학회 2016 Korean Journal of Chemical Engineering Vol.33 No.10

Actinobacillus succinogenes NJ113 is capable of microaerobic fermentation, which offers the possibility of a novel type of pyruvic acid production. A dissolved oxygen environment with stirring at 300 rpm was a key factor in the fermentative production of a maximum concentration of pyruvic acid. Potassium carbonate (K2CO3) was found to have a role in promoting pyruvic acid production, influencing the concentration of pyruvic acid and production of the by-product succinic acid. The final titer of pyruvic acid production was 36.8±0.1 g L−1 with an overall yield of 0.639±0.056 g g−1 glucose and 3.12±0.03mmol g−1 dry cell weight h−1. Significance and impact of the study: This study is the first to illustrate the advantage of using Actinobacillus succinogenes NJ113 with no genetic modification under microaerobic conditions for the production of pyruvic acid.

Liu, Shude,Ni, Dixing,Li, Hai-Feng,Hui, Kwun Nam,Ouyang, Chu-Ying,Jun, Seong Chan The Royal Society of Chemistry 2018 Journal of Materials Chemistry A Vol.6 No.23

<P>Cation substitution is a promising strategy for modulating the structural properties and optimizing the electrochemical performance of spinel cobalt oxide (Co3O4); however, the underlying mechanism of this action induced by different cation substitutions has not yet been clearly addressed. Herein, a systematic investigation is performed to elucidate the effect of cation substitution on the pseudocapacitive performance of spinel cobaltite (MCo2O4; M = Mn, Ni, Cu, and Co) mesoporous nanowires grown on nickel foam (NF). Theoretical and experimental analyses reveal that the substitution of Co by transition metals (<I>i.e.</I>, Mn, Ni, and Cu) in the lattice of Co3O4 can simultaneously improve charge transfer and ion diffusion, thereby exhibiting enhanced electrochemical properties. Herein, as a representative example, MnCo2O4 achieves a high specific capacitance of 2146 F g<SUP>−1</SUP> at a current density of 1 A g<SUP>−1</SUP>, while 92.1% of its initial capacitance is retained after 5000 cycles. An asymmetric supercapacitor with MnCo2O4 as the positive material and activated carbon (AC) as the negative material delivers a high energy density of 56.1 W h kg<SUP>−1</SUP> at a power density of 800 W kg<SUP>−1</SUP>, and a favorable energy density of 29.3 W h kg<SUP>−1</SUP> at a power density as high as 8000 W kg<SUP>−1</SUP>.</P>
