<P><B>Abstract</B></P> <P>Multifunctional nanomedicine holds considerable promise as the next generation of medicine that will enable early detection of diseases, as well as simultaneous monitoring and therapy with minimal toxicity. In particular, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) technology with high sensitivity and multiplexing capabilities is emerging as a powerful alternative for identifying specific biological targets in live cells. In this paper, we present the synthesis of SERS-active gold nanochains (AuNCs) as a potential theranostic system for multiplex detection and photodynamic therapy (PDT) of cancer. AuNCs were prepared by a simple physical mixing method to assemble citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles into nanochains using hyaluronic acid and hydrocaffeic acid (HA–HCA) conjugates as templates. In addition, Raman reporters and photosensitizers (PSs) were conjugated onto the surface of the AuNCs for multiplex detection and PDT action. After mixing with HA–HCA conjugates, citrate-stabilized gold nanoparticles formed the AuNC structure, and AuNC length was controlled by the HCA conjugation ratio in the HA–HCA conjugates. AuNCs exhibited maximal absorption in the near-infrared (NIR) spectral region and effective SERS property. Confocal microscopy, flow cytometry, Raman spectroscopy and Bio-TEM measurements were used to determine cellular uptake of the Raman reporter, PS and AuNCs in HeLa cells. AuNCs conjugated with Raman reporter and PS (HA–HCA<I> <SUB>n</SUB> </I>–Au–Pheo–NPT) showed more than 99% cellular uptake and exhibited excellent phototoxicity even at low PS concentrations compared with free PS after laser irradiation. This SERS-active AuNC (HA–HCA<I> <SUB>n</SUB> </I>–Au–Pheo–NPT) shows promise for applications in theranostics, integrating SERS imaging and PDT.</P> <P><B>Graphical abstract</B></P> <P>[DISPLAY OMISSION]</P>
Developing an Integrated BIM+GIS Web-Based Platform for a Mega Construction Project
Linlin Zhao,Jasper Mbachu,Zhansheng Liu 대한토목학회 2022 KSCE JOURNAL OF CIVIL ENGINEERING Vol.26 No.4
Construction projects are usually characterised by their large scale, complicated technologies, long periods of time to complete, and challenging collaboration efforts. The provision of digital representations that combine physical properties with geospatial information can help to solve some of these problems. Thus, the current study proposes a novel approach of integrating building information modelling (BIM) into the geographic information system (GIS) domain as a way of combining micro- and macro-level information into a unified domain without needing to convert between data standards or use any intermediate format. Moreover, this study provides an approach to automatic geo-referencing of the BIM model in the GIS domain without prior knowledge of the corresponding points. Based on the proposed integration approach, an integrated BIM+GIS web-based platform was developed that allows various stakeholders access to project information from different geographical areas, thereby enhancing information sharing and facilitating project management. To evaluate the functions and feasibility of the developed platform, it was employed for managing a mega construction project. The results indicate that the process of integrating BIM into the GIS domain was accurate and effective, and the developed platform can help to properly manage a mega-project by providing the required information and functions.
Self-assembled photosensitizer-conjugated nanoparticles for targeted photodynamic therapy
Zhao, Linlin,Kim, Tae-Hyun,Huh, Kang Moo,Kim, Hae-Won,Kim, So Yeon SAGE Publications 2013 Journal of biomaterials applications Vol.28 No.3
<P>An effective tumor-targeted drug delivery system for photodynamic therapy was developed by designing ligand-mediated nanoparticles with stable formulations of a hydrophobic photosensitizer. Novel folic acid (FA)-conjugated amphiphilic block copolymers of polyethylene glycol (PEG) and poly-β-benzyl-L-aspartate (PBLA) with the potential to act as pH-responsive drug release reservoirs were synthesized. The photosensitizer, 2,4-diacetyl deuteroporphyrin IX dimethyl ether (DD-PpIX), was conjugated to the copolymers through pH-sensitive hydrazone linkage. The syntheses and compositions of all copolymers were confirmed by <SUP>1</SUP>H NMR measurement. Photosensitizer-conjugated amphiphilic copolymeric nanoparticles (FA-PEG-P(Asp-Hyd)-DD-PpIX) were prepared by micelle formation in aqueous solution. The particle sizes of the FA-PEG-PBLA and FA-PEG-P(Asp-Hyd)-DD-PpIX nanoparticles were determined by light-scattering measurements. The range was 105–298 nm, depending on copolymer molecular weight and composition. Field emission scanning electron microscopy showed that the FA-PEG-P(Asp-Hyd)-DD-PpIX copolymeric nanoparticles were submicron in size and spherical in shape. The results of in vitro release tests showed that the release profiles of DD-PpIX from the nanoparticles were strongly pH-dependent and influenced by the amount of photosensitizer that was conjugated. In vitro tests using HeLa cells indicated that the FA-PEG-P(Asp-Hyd)-DD-PpIX nanoparticles had low dark-toxicity and showed more than 97% of cellular uptake. Based on our results, the FA-PEG-P(Asp-Hyd)-DD-PpIX nanoparticle system could be a promising approach for developing novel photosensitizer delivery carriers for photodynamic therapy.</P>

<P><I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-Ethenoguanine (<I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG) is one of the exocyclic DNA adducts produced by endogenous processes (<I>e.g.</I> lipid peroxidation) and exposure to bioactivated vinyl monomers such as vinyl chloride, which is a known human carcinogen. Existing studies exploring the miscoding potential of this lesion are quite indirect because of the lability of the glycosidic bond. We utilized a 2′-fluoro isostere approach to stabilize this lesion and synthesized oligonucleotides containing 2′-fluoro-<I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵ-2′-deoxyarabinoguanosine to investigate the miscoding potential of <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG by Y-family human DNA polymerases (pols). In primer extension assays, pol η and pol κ replicated through <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG, whereas pol ι and REV1 yielded only 1-base incorporation. Steady-state kinetics revealed that dCTP incorporation is preferred opposite <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG with relative efficiencies in the order of pol κ > REV1 > pol η ≈ pol ι, and dTTP misincorporation is the major miscoding event by all four Y-family human DNA pols. Pol ι had the highest dTTP misincorporation frequency (0.71) followed by pol η (0.63). REV1 misincorporated dTTP and dGTP with much lower frequencies. Crystal structures of pol ι with <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG paired to dCTP and dTTP revealed Hoogsteen-like base pairing mechanisms. Two hydrogen bonds were observed in the <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG:dCTP base pair, whereas only one appears to be present in the case of the <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG:dTTP pair. Base pairing mechanisms derived from the crystal structures explain the slightly favored dCTP insertion for pol ι in steady-state kinetic analysis. Taken together, these results provide a basis for the mutagenic potential of <I>N</I><SUP>2</SUP>,3-ϵG.</P>
Effects of a mild heat treatment on mouse testicular gene expression and sperm quality
Zhao, Jun,Zhang, Ying,Hao, Linlin,Wang, Jia,Zhang, Jiabao,Liu, Songcai,Ren, Bingzhong The Korean Society for Integrative Biology 2010 Animal cells and systems Vol.14 No.4
The decrease in sperm quality under heat stress causes a great loss in animal husbandry production. In order to reveal the mechanism underlying the sperm quality decrease caused by heat stress, we first established a mild heat-treated mouse model. Then, the sperm quality was identified. Further, the testicular proteome profile was mapped and compared with the control using 2D electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. Finally, the differential expressed proteins involved in the heat stress response were identified by real-time PCR and Western blotting. The results showed that heat stress caused a significant reduction in mouse sperm quality (P<0.05). Further, 52 protein spots on the 2D gel were found to differ between the heat-shocked tissues and the control. Of these spots, some repair proteins which might provide some explanation for the influence on sperm quality were found. We then focused on Bag-1, Hsp40, Hsp60 and Hsp70, which were found to be differently expressed after heat shock (P<0.05). Further analysis in this heat-shocked model suggests numerous potential mechanisms for heat shock-induced spermatogenic disorders.

Liu, Linlin,Zhao, Liping,Yang, Jun,Wan, Xiaoping,Hu, Ning,Yeh, Li‐,Hsien,Joo, Sang W.,Qian, Shizhi WILEY‐VCH Verlag 2013 Electroanalysis Vol.25 No.5
<P><B>Abstract</B></P><P>A polyimide substrate based microfluidic chip with thousands of comb‐shaped microelectrodes has been designed, fabricated, and tested for sterilization of bacteria by using pulsed electric field. The performance of bacteria sterilization as functions of the electric field strength, pulse number and width, treatment buffer, bacteria growth status, and bacteria enrichment by positive dielectrophoresis has been experimentally investigated on the microfluidic chip. Experimental results show that only 100 V are sufficient to obtain good sterilization of <I>Escherichia coli</I>. Higher electric field strength, bacteria enrichment by positive dielectrophoresis, longer pulse time, buffer with fewer components and nutritions, and suitable bacteria growth status also improve the sterilization of bacteria. In addition, configuration of the microelectrode array affects bacteria sterilization. This microfluidic device allows one to preconcentrate bacteria to a region with high electric field strength by using positive dielectrophoresis, and subsequently kill the enriched bacteria by applying a pulsed electric field through the same microelectrode array.</P>
