The results of relative binding affinities in negative ion mode revealed that several factors impact on the duplexbinding properties of ginsenosides. Glycosylations of 20(S)-protopanaxadiol ginsenosides at the position C-20 and 20(S)-protopanaxatriol classification at the position C-6 enhanced the fraction of bound DNA sharply. A rhamnose moiety shows little lower binding intensities than glucose at the same position.Ginsenosides of 20(S)-protopanaxatriol result in subtle higher binding affinities toward the duplex DNA than 20(S)-protopanaxadiol family. However, glycosylation with two sugar moieties does not show a higher binding affinity than with only one moiety. The collision-induced dissociation experimental data demonstrate the gas-phase stability and fragmentation patterns of the ginsenoside/DNA complexes are related to the glycoside number. Positive ion ESI mass spectra of the complexes were also recorded. The result of ESI-MS suggests that hydrogen bonds are the dominate interaction between ginsenosides and DNA. Similar results were obtained in solution-phase by UV spectroscopy, which exhibit a hyperchromism and blue-shift effect when DNA solution was titrated by individual ginsenoside.展开更多

The study was performed in a buffer solution using an IR Fourier spectrometer. The absorption bands corresponding to the duplex backbone were found to change their characteristics after the methylation. Firstly, the integrated intensity ratio of the absorption bands, S1044/S1085, decreased by a factor of 1.5. The absorption band at 1044 cm-1 corresponds to the COC bond of deoxyribose, and the band at 1085 cm-1 to the PO2symm.vibr bond. Secondly, a substantial shift of the absorption band 1085→1112 cm-1 (Δν = 27 cm-1) was observed. In addition, pronounced changes in the absorption region of CH stretching vibrations took place. In particular, shifting of some absorption bands assigned to the stretching vibrations of CH bonds;the 2979→2945.7 shift was equal to 33.3 cm-1. In addition to the indicated changes, some bands corresponding to the Z structure appeared in the methylated duplex. Thus, methylation of two cytosine molecules in the duplex leads to the order→order structural transition, most likely to the B→Z transition.展开更多

Microhardness and wear behaviour of the coatings before and after laser crystallization were evaluated by measurements of hardnesses of coating surface and cross-section, and by unlubricated friction and wear experiments. The results indicate that it is possible to prepare electroless Ni-P/Ni-W-P duplex coatings by sequential immersion in two different plating baths. After laser crystallization, the microstructures of electroless Ni-P/Ni-W-P duplex coatings present the characteristics of higher degree of crystallization and larger grain size for outer layer Ni-W-P than inner Ni-P, but outer layer has a higher hardness. The wear resistance of laser-treated duplex coatings in a given process parameter conditions is superior to the as-plated ones. Laser treatment was performed directly in air without argon protection, which provides the possibility for application of industrialized production.展开更多

METHOD...AIM To determine whether serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels correlates with the severity of liver cirrhosis and whether portal hypertension impacts on the expression of serum VEGF protein. METHODS Fifty three patients (mean age 56±2 years) with HCV ( n =26), HBV ( n =13), and cryptogenic liver cirrhosis ( n =14) (Child Pughs class A: 24, B: 19 and C: 12) and normal renal function constitute the patient population, who were all diagnosed by clinical, histological and radiological findings. Six healthy people and six patients with acute hepatitis served as controls. Severity of liver disease was evaluated by the CP score. Serum levels of IGF 1 and VEGF were measured by radioimmunoassay and ELISA, respectively. Portal hypertension was assessed using pulsed Doppler ultrasound. RESULTS The mean serum VEGF levels in all cirrhotic patients (73±58) were significantly lower than those of healthy controls (360±217, P <0 01) and acute hepatitis (1123±1261, P <0 01) respectively. No significant difference in median serum VEGF levels were noted among the different Child Pughs classes (class A: median, 49 4ng/L , range, 21ng/L - 260ng/L , Class B: median 59 9ng/L ; range 21-92, and Class C: median 69; range 20ng/L - 247ng/L ). A significant correlation was noted between serum VEGF and two accurate parameters of portal hypertension: portal blood flow velocity ( r =0 6) and spleen size ( r =0 55). No correlation was found between VEGF serum levels and serum albumin, IGF 1, platelets count and aminotrasnferases ( r =0 2, r =0 1, r =0 2 and r =0 2, respectively). CONCLUSION Circulating VEGF level in patients with liver cirrhosis could not serve as an indicator of the progression of chronic liver disease but rather, they may reflect increased portal hypertension or decreased hepatic regenerative activity or the combination of both.展开更多

文摘An alternating magnetic field(AMF)was introduced into the narrow gap laser-arc hybrid welding process for 2205 duplex stainless steel thick plates.The corrosion performance of the welded joints was evaluated through electrochemical studies.The results revealed that joints welded with the application of AMF had a lower corrosion current density compared to those welded without an external AMF.Additionally,these joints showed higher pitting potential and polarization resistance.Microscopic electrochemical analysis indicated that joints subjected to AMF exhibited minimal cathodic current in simulated seawater,with only slight fluctuations in the anodic current peak.Overall,the corrosion levels on the joint surfaces were relatively low.After 4 h of immersion in the corrosive medium,the average impedance of joints exposed to AMF increased by 60.7%compared to those not influenced by a magnetic field.These findings suggest that applying AMF during the narrow gap laser-arc hybrid welding process can significantly improve the corrosion resistance of duplex stainless steel welded joints,reducing their susceptibility to stress corrosion in seawater-like environments.

文摘Characteristics of microstructures of electroless Ni-P/Ni-W-P duplex coatings were investigated using SEM/EDX and XRD analysis techniques. Microhardness and wear behaviour of the coatings before and after laser crystallization were evaluated by measurements of hardnesses of coating surface and cross-section, and by unlubricated friction and wear experiments. The results indicate that it is possible to prepare electroless Ni-P/Ni-W-P duplex coatings by sequential immersion in two different plating baths. After laser crystallization, the microstructures of electroless Ni-P/Ni-W-P duplex coatings present the characteristics of higher degree of crystallization and larger grain size for outer layer Ni-W-P than inner Ni-P, but outer layer has a higher hardness. The wear resistance of laser-treated duplex coatings in a given process parameter conditions is superior to the as-plated ones. Laser treatment was performed directly in air without argon protection, which provides the possibility for application of industrialized production.
文摘AIM To determine whether serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) levels correlates with the severity of liver cirrhosis and whether portal hypertension impacts on the expression of serum VEGF protein. METHODS Fifty three patients (mean age 56±2 years) with HCV ( n =26), HBV ( n =13), and cryptogenic liver cirrhosis ( n =14) (Child Pughs class A: 24, B: 19 and C: 12) and normal renal function constitute the patient population, who were all diagnosed by clinical, histological and radiological findings. Six healthy people and six patients with acute hepatitis served as controls. Severity of liver disease was evaluated by the CP score. Serum levels of IGF 1 and VEGF were measured by radioimmunoassay and ELISA, respectively. Portal hypertension was assessed using pulsed Doppler ultrasound. RESULTS The mean serum VEGF levels in all cirrhotic patients (73±58) were significantly lower than those of healthy controls (360±217, P <0 01) and acute hepatitis (1123±1261, P <0 01) respectively. No significant difference in median serum VEGF levels were noted among the different Child Pughs classes (class A: median, 49 4ng/L , range, 21ng/L - 260ng/L , Class B: median 59 9ng/L ; range 21-92, and Class C: median 69; range 20ng/L - 247ng/L ). A significant correlation was noted between serum VEGF and two accurate parameters of portal hypertension: portal blood flow velocity ( r =0 6) and spleen size ( r =0 55). No correlation was found between VEGF serum levels and serum albumin, IGF 1, platelets count and aminotrasnferases ( r =0 2, r =0 1, r =0 2 and r =0 2, respectively). CONCLUSION Circulating VEGF level in patients with liver cirrhosis could not serve as an indicator of the progression of chronic liver disease but rather, they may reflect increased portal hypertension or decreased hepatic regenerative activity or the combination of both.
