However, there are few reports on their hepatotoxicity. In the present study, the metabolism and hepatotoxicity of GA(17:1), one of the most abundant components of GAs, were investigated. Kinetic analysis indicated that human and rat liver microsomes shared similar metabolic characteristics of GA(17:1) in phase I and II metabolisms. The drug-metabolizing enzymes involved in GA(17:1) metabolism were human CYP1 A2, CYP3 A4, UGT1 A6, UGT1 A9, and UGT2 B15, which were confirmed with an inhibition study of human liver microsomes and recombinant enzymes. The MTT assays indicated that the cytotoxicity of GA(17:1) in HepG2 cells occurred in a time-and dose-dependent manner. Further investigation showed that GA(17:1) had less cytotoxicity in primary rat hepatocytes than in HepG2 cells and that the toxicity was enhanced through CYP1 A-and CYP3 A-mediated metabolism.展开更多

Developed for drained backfill, Mitchell model assumed a zero friction angle for the backfill. Physical model tests were performed. Good agreements were obtained between the required strengths predicted by the analytical solution and experimental results. However, it is well-known that zero friction angle can only be possible in terms of total stresses when geomaterials are submitted to unconsolidated and undrained conditions. A revisit to Mitchell's physical model tests reveals that both the laboratory tests performed for obtaining the shear strength parameters of the cemented backfill and the box stability tests were conducted under a condition close to undrained condition. This explains well the good agreement between Mitchell's solution and experimental results. Good agreements are equally obtained between Mitchell's experimental results and FLAC3 D numerical modeling of shortterm stability analyses of exposed cemented backfill.展开更多
