Zhenjie Li,Xuezhi Yang,Jun Ma,Mingfei Ban,Yiqi Liu 전력전자학회 2024 JOURNAL OF POWER ELECTRONICS Vol.24 No.3

This paper proposes a main-auxiliary cooperative receiving coil (MA-coil) with a lower space occupation rate and a simple control based on the time-sharing working principle, which can effectively improve the anti-misalignment capability of a dynamic wireless charging (DWC) system. First, the structure and circuit topology of the MA-coil are designed. The two auxiliary coils (A-coil) are connected in reverse series and symmetrically placed on both sides of the main coil (M-coil). Second, the output performance of the MA-coil in the y-direction is calculated based on the time-sharing working principle. The A-coil works by itself and enhances the output power when side shift occurs. Third, the most suitable ratio of coil width w M and w A is determined. The anti-misalignment performance and the effective side shift range are compared through simulation between the MA-coil in this case and the square coil. Finally, an experimental prototype is built to verify the feasibility of the proposed structure, and experimental results obtained from the prototype are basically consistent with the theoretical analysis. The anti-misalignment capability of the MA-coil is more than 20% higher than that of the square coil.

JUN MA,GONG-YI LI,Xiao-dong Li,GANG PENG,YI-HE LI,HUA-YU CHEN 성균관대학교(자연과학캠퍼스) 성균나노과학기술원 2013 NANO Vol.8 No.4

A novel hierarchical nanostructure of SiO2 nanowires standing on SiO2 microwires was synthesized through a catalyst-free thermal evaporation method in nitrogen atmosphere. The SiO2 nanowires have an average diameter of 100 nm and length of 2 μm, while the diameter of the SiO2 microwires is around 10 μm and the length is hundreds of micrometers. The photoluminescence spectrum of the SiO2 hierarchical nanostructure shows stable blue and green emission at 442 nm and 533 nm, respectively. An oxygen-assisted three-step growth mechanism was suggested to interpret the growth of the SiO2 hierarchical nanostructure.

Li Xie,Hui Chen,Li Zhang,Yue Ma,Yuan Zhou,Yong-Yu Yang,Chang Liu,Yu-Li Wang,Ya-Jun Yan,Jia Ding,Xiao Teng,Qiang Yang,Xiu-Ping Liu,Jian Wu 대한간학회 2024 Clinical and Molecular Hepatology(대한간학회지) Vol.30 No.2

Background/Aims: Cholestatic liver diseases including primary biliary cholangitis (PBC) are associated with active hepatic fibrogenesis, which ultimately progresses to cirrhosis. Activated hepatic stellate cells (HSCs) are the main fibrogenic effectors in response to cholangiocyte damage. JCAD regulates cell proliferation and malignant transformation in nonalcoholic steatoheaptitis-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (NASH-HCC). However, its participation in cholestatic fibrosis has not been explored yet. Methods: Serial sections of liver tissue of PBC patients were stained with immunofluorescence. Hepatic fibrosis was induced by bile duct ligation (BDL) in wild-type (WT), global JCAD knockout mice (JCAD-KO) and HSC-specific JCAD knockout mice (HSC-JCAD-KO), and evaluated by histopathology and biochemical tests. In situ-activated HSCs isolated from BDL mice were used to determine effects of JCAD on HSC activation. Results: In consistence with staining of liver sections from PBC patients, immunofluorescent staining revealed that JCAD expression was identified in smooth muscle α-actin (α-SMA)-positive fibroblast-like cells and was significantly up-regulated in WT mice with BDL. JCAD deficiency remarkably ameliorated BDL-induced hepatic injury and fibrosis, as documented by liver hydroxyproline content, when compared to WT mice with BDL. Histopathologically, collagen deposition was dramatically reduced in both JCAD-KO and HSC-JCAD-KO mice compared to WT mice, as visualized by Trichrome staining and semi-quantitative scores. Moreover, JCAD deprivation significantly attenuated in situ HSC activation and reduced expression of fibrotic genes after BDL. Conclusions: JCAD deficiency effectively suppressed hepatic fibrosis induced by BDL in mice, and the underlying mechanisms are largely through suppressed Hippo-YAP signaling activity in HSCs.

Ma, Jun-Qi,Kurban, Shajidai,Zhao, Jun-Da,Li, Qiao-Zhi,Hasimu, Ayshamgul Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.6

In the present study, we studied the hypermethylation of the human riboflavin transporter 2 (hRFT2) gene and regulation of protein expression in biopsies from resected tissues from Uighur cervical squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) patients and their neighboring normal tissues. hRFT2 gene promoter region methylation sequences were mapped in cervical cancer cell line SiHa by bisulfite-sequencing PCR and quantitative detection of methylated DNA from 30 pairs of Uighur's CSCCs and adjacent normal tissues by MassARRAY (Sequenom, San Diego, CA, USA) and hRFT2 protein expression was analyzed by immunohistochemistry. In SiHa, we identified 2 CG sites methylated from all of 12CpG sites of the hRFT2 gene. Analysis of the data from quantitative analysis of single CpG site methylation by Sequenom MassARRAY platform showed that the methylation level between two CpG sites (CpG 2 and CpG 3) from CpG 1~12 showed significant differences between CSCC and neighboring normal tissues. However, the methylation level of whole target CpG fragments demonstrated no significant variation between CSCC ($0.476{\pm}0.020$) and neighboring normal tissues ($0.401{\pm}0.019$, p>0.05). There was a tendency for translocation the hRFT2 proteins from cytoplasm/membrane to nucleus in CSCC with increase in methylation of CpG 2 and CpG 3 in hRFT2gene promoter regions, which may relate to the genesis of CSCC. Our results suggested that epigenetic modifications are responsible for aberrant expression of the hRFT2 gene, and may help to understand mechanisms of cervical carcinogenesis.

Ma Li,Li Qianting,Ma Meiqiong,Meng Jun,Bai Jiyun 보안공학연구지원센터 2015 International Journal of Hybrid Information Techno Vol.8 No.12

The extension of ant colony algorithm was proposed by Dorigo, the founder of ant colony algorithm, which is the latest ant colony algorithm for solving a continuous space optimization problem. Considering the blindness of man-made choice of initial solution and initial parameters of the algorithm, and according to the algorithm converging slowly and easily falling into local optimum, this paper has provided improvement strategy for this optimization. It has introduced quantum computing and genetic algorithm, chaos optimization to carry out combination and comparison, and it has carried out improvement on the weight internally solved by memory in the algorithm. The effectiveness of various combined algorithms was determined through the optimization of numerous multi-dimensional continuous functions.

Ma Ke Yan,Lu Jing Bin,Ma Ying Jun,Li Jian,Yang Dong,Sun Wu Ji,Wang Hao,Pan Hao Nan,Wang Jia Qi,Yang Qing Yu,Zhang Da Ming,Zhu Li Hua,Wu Xiao Guang,Zheng Yun,Li Cong Bo 한국물리학회 2020 THE JOURNAL OF THE KOREAN PHYSICAL SOCIETY Vol.76 No.12

Excited states of 113In have been populated through the heavy-ion fusion evaporation reaction 110Pd(7Li, 4n)113In. A new band with the configuration of a proton d5/2 orbital is identified. Two ΔI = 2 intruder bands, built on the πh11/2 and the πg7/2 orbitals, have been extended to spins (63/2-)ħ and (55/2+)ħ, respectively. The negative-parity πh11/2 intruder band shows a smooth increase in aligned spin, which is attributed to a strong proton-neutron interaction. The properties of the positive-parity πg7/2 band are discussed based on tilted axis cranking model calculations, and the features of the antimagnetic rotation for this band are shown after backbend. Furthermore, the contributions of the two-shears-like mechanism, the neutron (gd)ν shell and the core rotation are investigated for the positive-parity πg7/2 band.

The Effect of H2O2/Fe2+ Catalytic Oxidation System on the Morphology, Structure and Properties of Flake-Like Poly(2,3-dimethylaniline)

Jun Yan,Li Ma,Mengyu Gan,Xiao Li,Zhitao Li,Jihai Tang,Ying Tu,Haifeng Hu 한국고분자학회 2014 Macromolecular Research Vol.22 No.8

In this work, flake-like poly(2,3-dimethylaniline) (P(2,3-DMA)) with enhanced thermal stability andanticorrosive ability was synthesized by in situ polymerization using H2O2/Fe2+ catalytic oxidation system, comparingwith traditional oxidant ammonium persulfate (APS) synthetic method. The structure and morphology of thesamples were characterized Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emissionscanning electron microscope (FESEM). The experimental results demonstrated that using H2O2/Fe2+ catalytic oxidationsystem was more inclined to form the two-dimensional P(2,3-DMA) flakes. The enhancement in thermostabilityand corrosion resistance was attributed to the formation of phenazine-like structures in the polymer chains,which could serve as templates to form the flake-like morphology. In addition, using H2O2/Fe2+ catalytic oxidationsystem is more environmental friendly than the APS method that can avoid ammonium pollution on aquatic life aswell as waters.

Yan-Li Shang,Yun-Ling Jia,Yun Ma,Jun-Ran Li,Shao-Hua Zhang,Ming-Xiu Li 한국유변학회 2010 Korea-Australia rheology journal Vol.22 No.1

Molecule-based electrorheological (ER) materials as a novel type of ER materials, the inclusion compound [H2(β-CD-A)-PTA] between p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTA, guest) and H2(β-CD-A) (host) that is dicarboxylic acid of β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) , and the rare earth (RE) complexes [(β-CD-A)-PTA]3RE2 (RE=La, Gd, Y)of H2(β-CD-A)-PTA, were synthesized. The ER performance and dielectric property of the materials were studied. Our results show that the molecule-based ER materials assembled using β-cyclodextrin as a substrate,especially the inclusion compound and its rare earth (RE) complexes exhibit clear ER effect. The inclusion PTA can markedly enhance the ER performance of H2(β-CD-A) material. The ER activity of the yttrium complex is the highest among these materials. The characteristic of the molecule in molecule-based ER materials is an important factor in influencing ER property.

Acquired Localized Hypertrichosis Induced by Internal Fixation and Plaster Cast Application

Hui-Jun Ma,Yang Yang,Hui-Yong Ma,Chi-Yu Jia,Ting-Hui Li 대한피부과학회 2013 Annals of Dermatology Vol.25 No.3

Hypertrichosis refers to increased vellus hair growth and is independent to androgen excess. The acquired localized hypertrichosis (ALH) is one of the typical hypertrichosis,which mainly results from chronic irritation, inflammation,friction, and occlusion by plaster of Paris. Here, we report a young boy who had ALH on his right hand following a closed fracture with internal fixation and plaster cast application. The case is unusual because the hairy area is limited to the operative region of internal fixation. We suggest that the local vascular changes and skin inflammation induced by internal fixation and plaster cast application may be associated with ALH.

Su Li Liang,Qian Jun Zhao,Xiang Chen Li,Ya Ping Jin,Yi Peng Wang,Xiao Hua Su,Wei Jun Guan,Yue Hui Ma 대한수의학회 2011 Journal of Veterinary Science Vol.12 No.2

Mammalian oocyte maturation and early embryo development processes are Ca^(2+)-dependent. In this study, we used confocal microscopy to investigate the distribution pattern of Ca^(2+) and its dynamic changes in the processes of bovine oocytes maturation, in vitro fertilization (IVF), parthenogenetic activation (PA) and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryo development. During the germinal vesicle (GV) and GV breakdown stage, Ca^(2+) was distributed in the cortical ooplasm and throughout the oocytes from the MI to MII stage. In IVF embryos, Ca^(2+)was distributed in the cortical ooplasm before the formation of the pronucleus. In 4-8 cell embryos and morulas, Ca^(2+) was present throughout the blastomere. In PA embryos, Ca^(2+) was distributed throughout the blastomere at 48 h, similar to in the 4-cell and 8-cell phase and the morula. At 6 h after activation, there was almost no distribution of Ca^(2+) in the SCNT embryos. However, Ca^(2+) was distributed in the donor nucleus at 10 h and it was distributed throughout the blastomere in the 2-8 cell embryos. In this study, Ca^(2+) showed significant fluctuations with regularity of IVF and SCNT groups, but PA did not. Systematic investigation of the Ca^(2+) location and distribution changes during oocyte maturation and early embryo development processes should facilitate a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in oocyte maturation, reconstructed embryo activation and development, ultimately improving the reconstructed embryo development rate.
