The marginal wave characteristic distribution and the joint density of wave properties have been calculated using the two transformations, with the results and accuracy of both transformations presented here. The two transformations deviate slightly between each other for the calculation of the crest and trough height marginal wave distributions, as well as the joint densities of wave amplitude with other wave properties. The transformation methods for the calculation of the wave crest and trough height distributions are shown to provide good agreement with real ocean data. Our work will help in the determination of the most appropriate transformation procedure for the prediction of extreme values.展开更多

In this paper, a new similarity measure between intuitionistic fuzzy sets based on the mid points of transformed triangular fuzzy numbers is proposed. The proposed similarity measure provides reasonable results not only for the sets available in the literature but also gives very reasonable results, especially for fuzzy sets as well as for most intuitionistic fuzzy sets. To provide supportive evidence, the proposed similarity measure is tested on certain sets available in literature and is also applied to pattern recognition and medical diagnosis problems. It is observed that the proposed similarity measure provides a very intuitive quantification.展开更多

However,LPP is based on the neighborhood graph artificially constructed from the original data,and the performance of LPP relies on how well the nearest neighbor criterion work in the original space. To address this issue,a novel DR algorithm,called the self-dependent LPP （sdLPP） is proposed. And it is based on the fact that the nearest neighbor criterion usually achieves better performance in LPP transformed space than that in the original space. Firstly,LPP is performed based on the typical neighborhood graph; then,a new neighborhood graph is constructed in LPP transformed space and repeats LPP. Furthermore,a new criterion,called the improved Laplacian score,is developed as an empirical reference for the discriminative power and the iterative termination. Finally,the feasibility and the effectiveness of the method are verified by several publicly available UCI and face data sets with promising results.展开更多

The linear simulation method is transformed based on a Hermite transformation model where the transformation is chosen to be a monotonic cubic polynomial and calibrated such that the first four moments of the transformed model match the moments of the true process. The proposed new approach is applied for calculating the wave trough distributions of a nonlinear sea state with the surface elevation data measured at the coast of Yura in the Japan Sea, and its accuracy and efficiency are convincingly validated by comparisons with the results from two theoretical distribution models, from a linear simulation model and a secondorder nonlinear simulation model. Finally, it is further demonstrated in this paper that the new approach can be applied to all the situations characterized by similar nondimensional spectrum.展开更多

Methods： The expressions of adhesive molecule and adhesive structure in v-k-ras transformed normal rat kidney cells （KNRK） were detected with a variety of molecular biological techniques, including cell culture, immunofluorescence labeling, electron microscopy, polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and protein blotting, and compared with normal rat kidney （NRK） cells. Results： The significantly shortened doubling time, remarkably active proliferation ability in soft agar, and invasive growth in the abdomen of nude rat, demonstrated the malignant biological behaviors of KNRK cells. In KNRK cells, the adhesive molecules, P-cadherin, α and β catenin, actin, and adhesive structures, the adhesive junction and gap junction, were all abnormally expressed. And cell aggregation was significantly decreased. The aggregation ability disappeared at 20℃, and became active with a suitable amount of calcium solution. Conclusion： Following the transfection of virus K-ras gene, normal cells were transformed into malignant cells. In early stage of cancer, the variation of adhesive ability may be one of the vital factors underlying tumorigenesis, invasion and metastasis.展开更多

Thus, considerable effort has been made to identify the cellular substrates of the tyrosine kinases. In this work, the activity of the Insulin receptor tyrosine kinase and endogenous substrate in transformed lymphocytes were studied. Purified human T lymphocytes incubated with phytohemagglutinin (PHA) for 72 hours served as transformed cells, when labeled with [32P] - orthophosphate it appeared that the insulin-dependent protein kinase activity in the transformed cells increased 9- fold. In search for the physiologically significant substrates by using polyclonal antiphosphotyrosine antibody to immunoprecipitate phosphotyrosine-containing proteins that produced in the intact cell during insulin stimulation, a protein with molecular weight of 45kDa as identified and designated as PP45, which occurred during the 5 minutes response of lymphocytes to insulin.展开更多

Changshou Shatian You infected with Agrobacterium rhizogenes were carried out in darkness or in light. The optimizing culture system of Ri T-DNA transformed roots for C. grandis cv. Changshou Shatian You was constructed as follows： After the ventral wounded striations on the single activation cotyledon were inoculated by A. rhizogenes A4 （logarithmic period）, they were cocultured at （25 ±2）℃ in darkness for 25-30 days; some transformed roots were generated from wounded striations of most cotyledons. The genetically transformed ratio is （83 ± 11）%. Axenic Ri T-DNA transformed roots （hairy roots） were harvested after five subcultures. Explants were activated on MT medium. The MS medium was used for subculture of transformed roots. Mass Ri T-DNA transformed roots in which the hormone was produced independently were harvested from this optimizing culture system. White, fresh Ri T-DNA transformed roots were （1.14 ±0.07） cm long, （0.73 ±0.04） mm wide, and the growth direction of transformed roots was negative geotropism.展开更多

It was found that the SFCM stimulated the growth of long-term serum-free cultured CNE4 cells in ac-cordence with the fact that the growth rate of long-term serum-free cultured CNE1 cells was directly proportional to the plating density. Alternatively 5% SFCM inhibited the growth of short-term serum-free cultured CNE4 cells by 51% in which the indicator cell remained the responsiveness state of growing in the serum-supplemented medium to the effector of interest. Furthermore, SFCM resulted in the inhibition of anchorage-independent growth of CNE4 cells and A431 cells. Also in soft agar test. SFCM reduced the colony formation of NRK(?),9F cells in the presence of EGF or EGF plus TGF-β. These finding suggested that CNE4 secreted autocrine growth stimulating factor(s) and growth inhibiting factor(s) in the serum-free medium, the latter strongly reverse malignant phenotypes of CNE4 and A431 cells in serum-supplemented surrounding.展开更多

After treatment with 1 mM db-cAMP for 1 hour and 2 hours, there was an early and repldly reduced in gene expression of Calmodulin and c-fos respectively. After db-cAMP treatment for 4 -5 days, the number of capping cells of ConA binding decreased significantly and the cell surface microvllll decreased as well. The growth of treated cells was inhibited markedly. By using 4F1 cDNA probe, which is preferentially expressed In G1 phase, we have found that the db- cAMP treated cells were accumulated at G1 phase. Of particular interest is the fact that the distribution of microtubules, mlcrofilaments and fibronectln were recovered after treatment with 1 mM db-cAMP for 6 days. It is suggested that the Inhibition of proliferation, alteration, of phenotype and reco- very of cytoskeleton is transformed cells after treatment with db-cAMP are related to the Inhibition of gene expression of Calmodulin.展开更多

The oncogene was cloned and identified as a single nucleotide substitution of thymine for guanine in the 12th codon through the sequencing of its first axon. We compared the differences of expression and regulation between the transformed Ha-ras cells and untransformed parent cells. Data indicated that the expression of Ha-ras in the transformed cells was five-fold higher than in the untransformed cells and that the Ha-ras gene in the former was hypersensitive toward DNase I. In addition, a nuclear protein of 35 kilodaltons bound strongly to the 2.5 Kb fragment located upstream of the 6.6 Kb Ha-ras gene and contained a CC rich region. These results suggest that there might be another mechanism of activation for the ras gene besides point mutation.展开更多

文摘The hormone defined serum free conditioned medium (SFCM) of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma epithelioid cell line (CNE1) was assayed by both the 3H-thymidine incorporation test and the soft agar test. It was found that the SFCM stimulated the growth of long-term serum-free cultured CNE4 cells in ac-cordence with the fact that the growth rate of long-term serum-free cultured CNE1 cells was directly proportional to the plating density. Alternatively 5% SFCM inhibited the growth of short-term serum-free cultured CNE4 cells by 51% in which the indicator cell remained the responsiveness state of growing in the serum-supplemented medium to the effector of interest. Furthermore, SFCM resulted in the inhibition of anchorage-independent growth of CNE4 cells and A431 cells. Also in soft agar test. SFCM reduced the colony formation of NRK(?),9F cells in the presence of EGF or EGF plus TGF-β. These finding suggested that CNE4 secreted autocrine growth stimulating factor(s) and growth inhibiting factor(s) in the serum-free medium, the latter strongly reverse malignant phenotypes of CNE4 and A431 cells in serum-supplemented surrounding.
文摘We have demonstrated that the distribution of microtubules (MT), mlcrofilaments (MF) and fibronectin (FN) were diminished, while the gene expression of the calmodulin and c- fos enhanced in the transformed C3H10T1/2 cells. After treatment with 1 mM db-cAMP for 1 hour and 2 hours, there was an early and repldly reduced in gene expression of Calmodulin and c-fos respectively. After db-cAMP treatment for 4 -5 days, the number of capping cells of ConA binding decreased significantly and the cell surface microvllll decreased as well. The growth of treated cells was inhibited markedly. By using 4F1 cDNA probe, which is preferentially expressed In G1 phase, we have found that the db- cAMP treated cells were accumulated at G1 phase. Of particular interest is the fact that the distribution of microtubules, mlcrofilaments and fibronectln were recovered after treatment with 1 mM db-cAMP for 6 days. It is suggested that the Inhibition of proliferation, alteration, of phenotype and reco- very of cytoskeleton is transformed cells after treatment with db-cAMP are related to the Inhibition of gene expression of Calmodulin.
文摘An Ha-ras oncogene was isolated from a cell line of gastric carcinoma called BGE-823 in order to elucidate genetic control and the influence of DNA sequences. The oncogene was cloned and identified as a single nucleotide substitution of thymine for guanine in the 12th codon through the sequencing of its first axon. We compared the differences of expression and regulation between the transformed Ha-ras cells and untransformed parent cells. Data indicated that the expression of Ha-ras in the transformed cells was five-fold higher than in the untransformed cells and that the Ha-ras gene in the former was hypersensitive toward DNase I. In addition, a nuclear protein of 35 kilodaltons bound strongly to the 2.5 Kb fragment located upstream of the 6.6 Kb Ha-ras gene and contained a CC rich region. These results suggest that there might be another mechanism of activation for the ras gene besides point mutation.
文摘The advancement and novel technologies in materials science have been steadily growing toward adopting ethical practices.To reduce the stress on the environment the producers integrate novel materials to extend traditional functionality.They develop modern fibers that are eco-friendly,light,resilient,mechanically flexible,and easy to process.Moreover,novel fabrics are acquiring unique properties such as sensory capabilities,electrical conductivity,and data transmission.Cloths with characteristics such as hydrophobic cotton,plant-based textiles,antimicrobial fabrics,and shape memory polymers show versatility in textile innovations.Overall,these textile innovations provide sustainable alternatives,which are commercially viable and suitable for large-scale production.
