These fragments were cloned into plasmid vector pUC18. Homology analysis was made after sequencing these fragments.RESULTS Two novel genes were identified compared with sequences from GenBank. One was registered with the AD number AF 051783. In situ hybridization showed that these two novel genes expressed specifically in gastric cancer tissues.CONCLUSION The two novel genes obtained by differential display were confirmed to be gastric cancer-associated genes using in situ hybridization.展开更多

It is mainly regulated by environmental factors such as photoperiod and temperature (Izawa, 2007). Many QTLs for heading date have been identified using different mapping populations and methods (http:// www.gramene.org/qtl). Up to date, several major heading date QTLs have been cloned by map-based cloning strategy (Yano et al., 2000; Takahashi et al., 2001; Kojima et al., 2002; Doi et al., 2004; Xue et al., 2008; Wei et al., 2010; Yan et al.,展开更多

However, when considering dental implants, strong epithelial attachment does not exist throughout the titanium-soft tissue interface, making soft tissues more susceptible to peri-implant disease. This study introduced a novel synthetic peptide(A10) to enhance epithelial attachment. A10 was identified from a bacterial peptide display library and synthesized. A10 and protease-activated receptor 4-activating peptide(PAR4-AP, positive control) were immobilized on commercially pure titanium. The peptide-treated titanium showed high epithelial cell migration ability during incubation in platelet-rich plasma. We confirmed the development of dense and expanded BL(stained by Ln5) with pericellular junctions(stained by ZO1) on the peptide-treated titanium surface. In an adhesion assay of epithelial cells on A10-treated titanium, PAR4-AP-treated titanium, bovine root and non-treated titanium, A10-treated titanium and PAR4-AP-treated titanium showed significantly stronger adhesion than non-treated titanium. PAR4-AP-treated titanium showed significantly higher inflammatory cytokine release than non-treated titanium. There was no significant difference in inflammatory cytokine release between A10-treated and non-treated titanium. These results indicated that A10 could induce the adhesion and migration of epithelial cells with low inflammatory cytokine release. This novel peptide has a potentially useful application that could improve clinical outcomes with titanium implants and abutments by reducing or preventing peri-implant disease.展开更多

Among the algorithms proposed to mitigate the influence of NLOS propagation error, residual test (RT) is an efficient one, however with high computational complexity (CC). An improved algorithm that memorizes the light of sight (LOS) range measurements (RMs) identified memorize LOS range measurements identified residual test (MLSI-RT) is presented in this paper to address this problem. The MLSI-RT is based on the assumption that when all RMs are from LOS propagations, the normalized residual follows the central Chi-Square distribution while for NLOS cases it is non-central. This study can reduce the CC by more than 90%.展开更多

文摘TarGuess-I is a leading model utilizing Personally Identifiable Information for online targeted password guessing.Due to its remarkable guessing performance,the model has drawn considerable attention in password security research.However,through an analysis of the vulnerable behavior of users when constructing passwords by combining popular passwords with their Personally Identifiable Information,we identified that the model fails to consider popular passwords and frequent substrings,and it uses overly broad personal information categories,with extensive duplicate statistics.To address these issues,we propose an improved password guessing model,TGI-FPR,which incorporates three semantic methods:(1)identification of popular passwords by generating top 300 lists from similar websites,(2)use of frequent substrings as new grammatical labels to capture finer-grained password structures,and(3)further subdivision of the six major categories of personal information.To evaluate the performance of the proposed model,we conducted experiments on six large-scale real-world password leak datasets and compared its accuracy within the first 100 guesses to that of TarGuess-I.The results indicate a 2.65%improvement in guessing accuracy.
