Purpose: The beneficial effects of a combination therapy using Bifidobacterium longum and galactooligosaccharide (GOS) for the treatment of atopic dermatitis (AD) have not been elucidated. Methods: Gene expressions of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 from peripheral blood mononuclear cells and fecal abundance of B. longum from 12-month-old infants were evaluated. Human primary epidermal keratinocytes (HEKs) and hairless mice were treated with B. longum, GOS, B. longum-derived extracellular vesicles (BLEVs), dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB), or a synbiotic mixture of B. longum and GOS. Expression of epidermal barrier proteins and cytokines as well as serum immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels were analyzed in HEKs and mice. Dermatitis scores, transepidermal water loss (TEWL), epidermal thickness, and fecal B. longum abundance were evaluated in mice. Results: Fecal abundance of B. longum was negatively correlated with blood IL-13 expression in infants. B. longum or BLEVs increased expression of filaggrin (FLG) and loricrin (LOR) in HEKs. B. longum increased the efficacy of GOS to upregulate FLG and LOR expressions in HEKs. Oral administration of GOS increased fecal abundance of B. longum in mice. Oral administration of B. longum attenuated DNCB-induced skin inflammation, abnormal TEWL, AD-like skin, and deficiency of epidermal barrier proteins. Moreover, the combination of B. longum and GOS showed greater effects to improve DNCB-induced skin inflammation, abnormal TEWL, AD-like skin, serum IgE levels, IL-4 over-expression, and the deficiency of epidermal barrier proteins than the administration of B. longum alone. Conclusions: B. longum and GOS improve DNCB-induced skin barrier dysfunction and AD-like skin.

This study aims at presenting the findings of a study on the development and application of student-centered flipped learning lesson plans in a Korean elementary school class. Towards this end, the lesson plans were constructed based upon steps and elements of the flipped learning model drawn from previous research and implemented in two fourth-grade social studies classes of 44 students. To delve into the effectiveness of the flipped learning model in social studies classes, we examined students`` perceptions of it and academic achievement. The Findings of this study indicated that students generally had a positive attitude towards classes using the flipped learning model compared with other classroom activities and acquired a deeper understanding of relevant concepts and knowledge taught during this study. The main results of the analysis of their perceptions were as follows: First, students appreciated that there was much more interaction between the teacher and students, between students and learning contents, and between classmates. Second, it was shown that students used similar to or somewhat much time to prepare for in-class activities and they felt that the time was meaningful. Third, they also appreciated the after class activities with regard to expansion of key concepts taught in classes were very meaningful. In addition, regarding the academic achievement, the students`` academic achievements after implementing the flipped learning classes were improved significantly. Furthermore, this research also discusses some implications for improving the flipped learning model.

An efficient gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based method using tert-butyldimethylsilyl derivative was developed for the simultaneous analysis of 10 phenolic acids. Under optimal conditions, linearity in the range of 2–100 ng/ml exhibited correlation coefficient (r) of ≥0.999. Repeatability showed low relative standard deviation of <16.7%, and accuracy (% relative error) varied from 9.8 to 3.4. New mass spectra data sets of 10 phenolic acids were constructed in multiple reaction monitoring mode. When applied to Orostachys japonica (Maxim.) A. Berger, the 10 phenolic acids of salicylic, 4-hydroxybenzoic, vanillic, m-coumaric, syringic, p-coumaric, protocatechuic, ferulic, gallic, and caffeic acids were positively identified. We believe that the devised method will be found useful for profiling phenolic acids in various plant samples.

Hepatitis B virus X protein activates the ATM-Chk2 pathway and delays cell cycle progression

Kim, Sujeong,Lee, Ho-Soo,Ji, Jae-Hoon,Cho, Mi-Young,Yoo, Young-Suk,Park, Yong-Yea,Cha, Hyuk-Jin,Lee, Youngsoo,Kim, Youngbae,Cho, Hyeseong Microbiology Society 2015 The Journal of general virology Vol.96 No.8

<P>Genetic instability is intimately associated with tumour development. In particular, liver cancers associated with hepatitis B virus (HBV) exhibit high genetic instability; however, our understanding of the underlying molecular mechanisms remains limited. In this study, we found that γ-H2AX, a marker of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs), and the levels of phospho-Chk2 (p-Chk2, the activated form) were significantly elevated in HBV-associated hepatocellular carcinomas and neighbouring regenerating nodules. Likewise, introduction of the pHBV or pMyc-HBx plasmids into cells induced accumulation of γ-H2AX foci and increased the p-Chk2 level. In these cells, inhibitory phosphorylation of Cdc25C phosphatase (Ser216) and CDK1 (Tyr15) was elevated; consequently, cell-cycle progression was delayed at G2/M phase, suggesting that activation of the ATM-Chk2 pathway by the HBV X protein (HBx) induces cell-cycle delay. Accordingly, inhibition of ataxia telangiectasia mutated (ATM) by caffeine or siRNA abolished the increase in the p-Chk2 level and restored the delayed CDK1 kinase activity in ChangX cells. We also found that cytoplasmic HBx, but not nuclear HBx, induced reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and led to the accumulation of γ-H2AX foci and the increased p-Chk2 level. Together, these data indicate that HBx-induced ROS accumulation induces DNA damage that activates the ATM-Chk2 pathway. Our findings provide insight into the mechanisms of HBV pathogenesis.</P>
