This paper presented an investigation into steel tubes encased high-strength concrete (STHC) composite walls, wherein steel tubes were embedded at the boundary elements of high-strength concrete walls. A series of cyclic loading tests was conducted to evaluate the failure pattern, hysteresis characteristics, load-bearing capacity, deformability, and strain distribution of STHC composite walls. The test results demonstrated that the bearing capacity and ductility of the STHC composite walls improved with the embedding of steel tubes at the boundary elements. An analytical method was then established to predict the flexural bearing capacity of the STHC composite walls, and the calculated results agreed well with the experimental values, with errors of less than 10%. Finally, a finite element modeling (FEM) was developed via the OpenSees program to analyze the mechanical performance of the STHC composite wall. The FEM was validated through test results; additionally, the influences of the axial load ratio, steel tube strength, and shear-span ratio on the mechanical properties of STHC composite walls were comprehensively investigated.

Superovulation, or ovarian stimulation is a commonly used ART for treatment of human infertility/subfertility. Recent studies suggest that superovulation unaffects methylated imprints acquisition in mouse oocytes during oogenesis, whereas disrupts DNA methylation maintenance in embryos during preimplantation development. However, the mechanisms of defects in methylation maintanence caused by superovulation remain largely unclear. We hypothesized that superovulation may disrupt the expression of DNA methyltransferases (Dnmts), the enzymes which catalyze DNA methylation acquisition and maintenance. The mice were subjected to superovulate with low (6 IU) and high (10 IU) dosage hormone. We examined the global DNA methylation levels in zygotes and DNA methylation of repeated sequences (IAP and Line 1) in blastocyst stage embryos. In addition, we investigated the expression of Dnmts (Dnmt3a, Dnmt3b, Dnmt3l and Dnmt1o) in ovulated oocytes and zygotes. Through staining with antibody 5mC and Di-H3K9 coupled with confocal microscopy, we found that global methylation profiles in zygotes derived from females after low or high dosage hormone treatment were not affected when compared to control counterpart. Moreover, methylation at IAP in blastocysts also was unaffected by superovulation, irrespective of hormone dosage. In contrast, methylation level at Line 1 decreased when the females were administered by high dosage hormone. Furthermore, expression of de novo DNA methyltransferase Dnmt3a, Dnmt3b, Dnmt3L, as well as maintenance Dnmt1o in MII oocytes and zygotes was not disrupted by superovulation. Given superovulation adversely affected methylation maintenance in blastocysts during preimplantation development but with normal expression of Dnmts in oocytes and zygotes, it is indicated that defects of embryonic methylation didn’t originate from abnormal expression of Dnmts.

Background: This analysis was conducted to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide based regimen in treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer. Materials and Methods: Clinical studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of lenalidomide based regimens on response and safety for patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer were identified using a predefined search strategy. A pooled response rate (rate of PSA level decline of ${\geq}50%$) to treatment was calculated. Results: In lenalidomide based regimen, 3 clinical studies which including 98 patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer were considered eligible for inclusion. These lenalidomide based regimens included cisplatin, doxorubicin, or GM-CSF. Pooled analysis suggested that, in all patients, the pooled PSA level decline of ${\geq}50%$ was 13.3% (13/98) in lenalidomide based regimens. Fatigue, nausea and vomitting were the main side effects. No grade III or IV renal or liver toxicity were observed. No treatment related death occurred in patients with lenalidomide based regimens. Conclusions: This evidence based analysis suggests that lenalidomide based regimens are associated with mild response rate and acceptable toxicities for treating patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.

It is well established that mitochondrial genome is strictly maternally inherited in mammalian, despite the fact that paternal mitochondria enter into oocyte during fertilization. To date, although some mechanisms have been extrapolated to interpret the elimination of paternal mitochondria, the exact mechanism still is unclear. Recent studies suggest that autophagy process and the ubiquitin-mediated degradation pathway may be involved in elimination of paternal mitochondria. However, the dynamic profiles of autophagy and ubiquitination associated with paternal mitochondria degradation have not been determined in mouse model. Through immunostaining with specific antibody LC3 and Ubiquitin and confocal microscopy, we investigated the dynamic profiles of LC3 and Ubiquitin signals in mouse embryos during preimplantation development. In addition, embryos were stained with MitoTracker Red for tracking the degradation process of paternal mitochondria. Our results showed that paternal mitochondria gradually degraded during postfertilization development, and sporadic paternal mitochondria were found at least in 16 cell embryos. LC3 and Ubiquitin signals appeared in the midpiece of sperm at 3 h postfertilization, and they were strictly colocalizated with paternal mitochondria from zygote to 2 cell embryo. Nevertheless, the colocalization became loose at 4 cell embryos, and gradually disappeared beyond 4 cell embryos. Our results confirmed that autophagy process and the ubiquitin-mediated degradation pathway may take part in the postfertilization remove of paternal mitochondria.
성선자극호르몬의 투여가 생쥐 난자의 각인유전자의 DNA메틸화에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구

성선자극호르몬에 의한 포유동물의 과배란 유도는 많이 사용되어 온 효과적인 방법이다. 그러나 이러한 과배란 유도방법에 의한 난포의 성장 및 성숙은 난자의 성숙과 함께 이루어지기에 난자의 각인유전자 발현과 동일한 시기로서 각인유전자의 DNA 메칠화에 영향을 미칠 염려도 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 과량의 성선자극 호르몬으로 난소를 자극하였을 때 난자 각인인자의 DNA 메칠화에 영향을 미치는지를 관찰 하는 것 이다. 대조군은 6주령된 ICR 암컷 생쥐에 48시간 간격으로 PMSG와 hCG를 각각 5 IU씩 복강투여 하였고 처리군은 같은 방법으로 PMSG와 hCG를 각각 10 IU씩 투여하였다. 그리고 성숙된 (MII단계) 난자는 hCG투여한 13-15시간 뒤에 난관으로부터 회수하여 각인인자 Snrpn 와 Peg3의 DNA 메틸화를 Bisulfite 시퀀싱 방법으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, PMSG를 5 IU 투여한 암컷 마우스의 성숙난자는 Snrpn 와 Peg3 유전자 모두 정상적인 메틸화 상태를 나타냈다. 그러나, 정량 보다 두 배의 PMSG를 투여한 생쥐의 난자는 Snrpn 유전자는 정상적인 메틸화 양상을 나타냈지만, Peg3 유전자는 대조군에 비해 비정상적인 DNA 메틸화 양상을 나타냈다. 이 연구결과는 과량의 성선자극호르몬의 투여는 난자 각인유전자의 DNA 메틸화에 영향을 미친다는 것을 시사한다. Superovulation or ovarian stimulation with gonadotropin is an effective way to enhance the availability of oocyte. Therefore, it is currently an indispensable ART (assisted reproductive technology) base on its significant benefit. However, ovarian stimulation was performed during oocyte growth, thus it may likely affect imprinted methylation as genomic imprinting was established in oocytes during the same time window. In current study, we investigated the impact of superovulation with excessive gonadotropin on methylated imprints in oocytes. MII oocytes were collected from female ssuperovulated with single-dose and double-dose PMSG. DNA methylation profiles of two imprinted genes Snrpn and Peg3 were evaluated by bisulfite sequencing. Our results showed that Snrpn and Peg3 were hypermetylated in the oocytes from single-dose superovulation females. In contrast, although all clones of Snrpn were hypermethyled in oocytes from double-dose superovulation females while some clones of Peg3 were hypomethylated. Our data demonstrated that genomic imprinting was correctly acquired in oocytes from females superovulated with single-dose gonadotropin while excessive stimulation affected genomic imprinting in oocytes, suggesting that DNA methylation in oocytes may be more susceptible to disruption of methylated imprint when superovulated with excessive gonadotropin.
