Recent studies on the pathogenesis and progression of multiple sclerosis have highlighted the multiple roles of mononuclear macrophages in the neuroinflammatory process. Monocytes play a significant role in neuroinflammation, and managing neuroinflammation by manipulating peripheral monocytes stands out as an effective strategy for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, leading to improved patient outcomes. This review outlines the steps involved in the entry of myeloid monocytes into the central nervous system that are targets for effective intervention: the activation of bone marrow hematopoiesis, migration of monocytes in the blood, and penetration of the blood–brain barrier by monocytes. Finally, we summarize the different monocyte subpopulations and their effects on the central nervous system based on phenotypic differences. As activated microglia resemble monocyte-derived macrophages, it is important to accurately identify the role of monocyte-derived macrophages in disease. Depending on the roles played by monocyte-derived macrophages at different stages of the disease, several of these processes can be interrupted to limit neuroinflammation and improve patient prognosis. Here, we discuss possible strategies to target monocytes in neurological diseases, focusing on three key aspects of monocyte infiltration into the central nervous system, to provide new ideas for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.展开更多

The methodology aims to determine the optimal allocation and sizing of multiple PV-DG to minimize power loss through time series power flow analysis. An approach utilizing continuous sensitivity analysis is developed and inherently leverages power flow and loss equations to compute LSF of all buses in the system towards employing a dynamic PV-DG model for more accurate results. The algorithm uses a numerical grid search method to optimize PV-DG placement in a power distribution system, focusing on minimizing system losses. It combines iterative analysis, sensitivity assessment, and comprehensive visualization to identify and present the optimal PV-DG configurations. The present-ed algorithms are verified through co-simulation framework combining MATLAB and OpenDSS to carry out analysis for 12-bus radial distribution test system. The proposed numerical method is compared with other algorithms, such as ELF, LSF methods, and Genetic Algorithms (GA). Results show that the proposed numerical method performs well in comparison with LSF and ELF solutions.展开更多

文摘Combined with elastic network model(ENM),the perturbation response scanning(PRS)has emerged as a robust technique for pinpointing allosteric interactions within proteins.Here,we proposed the PRS analysis of drug-target networks(DTNs),which could provide a promising avenue in network medicine.We demonstrated the utility of the method by introducing a deep learning and network perturbation-based framework,for drug repurposing of multiple sclerosis(MS).First,the MS comorbidity network was constructed by performing a random walk with restart algorithm based on shared genes between MS and other diseases as seed nodes.Then,based on topological analysis and functional annotation,the neurotransmission module was identified as the“therapeutic module”of MS.Further,perturbation scores of drugs on the module were calculated by constructing the DTN and introducing the PRS analysis,giving a list of repurposable drugs for MS.Mechanism of action analysis both at pathway and structural levels screened dihydroergocristine as a candidate drug of MS by targeting a serotonin receptor of se-rotonin 2B receptor(HTR2B).Finally,we established a cuprizone-induced chronic mouse model to evaluate the alteration of HTR2B in mouse brain regions and observed that HTR2B was significantly reduced in the cuprizone-induced mouse cortex.These findings proved that the network perturbation modeling is a promising avenue for drug repurposing of MS.As a useful systematic method,our approach can also be used to discover the new molecular mechanism and provide effective candidate drugs for other complex diseases.

文摘Mononuclear macrophage infiltration in the central nervous system is a prominent feature of neuroinflammation. Recent studies on the pathogenesis and progression of multiple sclerosis have highlighted the multiple roles of mononuclear macrophages in the neuroinflammatory process. Monocytes play a significant role in neuroinflammation, and managing neuroinflammation by manipulating peripheral monocytes stands out as an effective strategy for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, leading to improved patient outcomes. This review outlines the steps involved in the entry of myeloid monocytes into the central nervous system that are targets for effective intervention: the activation of bone marrow hematopoiesis, migration of monocytes in the blood, and penetration of the blood–brain barrier by monocytes. Finally, we summarize the different monocyte subpopulations and their effects on the central nervous system based on phenotypic differences. As activated microglia resemble monocyte-derived macrophages, it is important to accurately identify the role of monocyte-derived macrophages in disease. Depending on the roles played by monocyte-derived macrophages at different stages of the disease, several of these processes can be interrupted to limit neuroinflammation and improve patient prognosis. Here, we discuss possible strategies to target monocytes in neurological diseases, focusing on three key aspects of monocyte infiltration into the central nervous system, to provide new ideas for the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases.

文摘This study numerically examines the heat and mass transfer characteristics of two ternary nanofluids via converging and diverg-ing channels.Furthermore,the study aims to assess two ternary nanofluids combinations to determine which configuration can provide better heat and mass transfer and lower entropy production,while ensuring cost efficiency.This work bridges the gap be-tween academic research and industrial feasibility by incorporating cost analysis,entropy generation,and thermal efficiency.To compare the velocity,temperature,and concentration profiles,we examine two ternary nanofluids,i.e.,TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Al_(2)O_(3)/H_(2)O and TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Cu/H_(2)O,while considering the shape of nanoparticles.The velocity slip and Soret/Dufour effects are taken into consideration.Furthermore,regression analysis for Nusselt and Sherwood numbers of the model is carried out.The Runge-Kutta fourth-order method with shooting technique is employed to acquire the numerical solution of the governed system of ordinary differential equations.The flow pattern attributes of ternary nanofluids are meticulously examined and simulated with the fluc-tuation of flow-dominating parameters.Additionally,the influence of these parameters is demonstrated in the flow,temperature,and concentration fields.For variation in Eckert and Dufour numbers,TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Al_(2)O_(3)/H_(2)O has a higher temperature than TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Cu/H_(2)O.The results obtained indicate that the ternary nanofluid TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Al_(2)O_(3)/H_(2)O has a higher heat transfer rate,lesser entropy generation,greater mass transfer rate,and lower cost than that of TiO_(2)+SiO_(2)+Cu/H_(2)O ternary nanofluid.

文摘Male infertility can result from impaired sperm motility caused by multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella(MMAF).Distinct projections encircling the central microtubules of the spermatozoal axoneme play pivotal roles in flagellar bending and spermatozoal movement.Mammalian sperm-associated antigen 17(SPAG17)encodes a conserved axonemal protein of cilia and flagella,forming part of the C1a projection of the central apparatus,with functions related to ciliary/flagellar motility,skeletal growth,and male fertility.This study investigated two novel homozygous SPAG17 mutations(M1:NM_206996.2,c.829+1G>T,p.Asp212_Glu276del;and M2:c.2120del,p.Leu707*)identified in four infertile patients from two consanguineous Pakistani families.These patients displayed the MMAF phenotype confirmed by Papanicolaou staining and scanning electron microscopy assays of spermatozoa.Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction(PCR)of patients’spermatozoa also revealed a significant decrease in SPAG17 mRNA expression,and immunofluorescence staining showed the absence of SPAG17 protein signals along the flagella.However,no apparent ciliary-related symptoms or skeletal malformations were observed in the chest X-rays of any of the patients.Transmission electron microscopy of axoneme cross-sections from the patients showed incomplete C1a projection and a higher frequency of missing microtubule doublets 1 and 9 compared with those from fertile controls.Immunofluorescence staining and Western blot analyses of spermatogenesis-associated protein 17(SPATA17),a component of the C1a projection,and sperm-associated antigen 6(SPAG6),a marker of the spring layer,revealed disrupted expression of both proteins in the patients’spermatozoa.Altogether,these findings demonstrated that SPAG17 maintains the integrity of spermatozoal flagellar axoneme,expanding the phenotypic spectrum of SPAG17 mutations in humans.

文摘Objective:Multiple myeloma(MM)is a hematologically malignant clonal plasma cell disease.This study aims to explore the association between immunophenotypes and prognosis in patients with MM,to determine whether the expression of CD45 and CD200 is related to the prognosis of newly diagnosed MM(NDMM)patients,and to evaluate the significance of the combined expression of CD45 and CD200 in NDMM.Methods:A total of 123 NDMM patients admitted to Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University from July 2015 to August 2019 were enrolled.Five key immunophenotypic markers(including CD38,CD138,CD45,CD56,and CD200)were screened through flow cytometry and identified using random forest analysis and univariate Cox regression analysis.Patients were divided into 3 groups:Group A,CD45 and CD200 double-positive;Group B,CD45 or CD200 single-positive;Group C,CD45 and CD200 double-negative.Kaplan-Meier curves were used to analyze overall survival(OS)and progression-free survival(PFS)across groups.Multivariate Cox regression was performed to evaluate prognostic factors,and a nomogram was constructed based on these results.Results:The OS and PFS of single-positive groups for CD38,CD138,CD45,CD56,and CD200 were all shorter than those of their respective single-negative groups(all P<0.05).Significant differences were observed in OS(P<0.001)and PFS(P=0.001)among Groups A,B,and C.Group A had shorter OS and PFS(all P=0.001)compared to the Group B+C(cases from Group B and Group C were combined).CD45 and CD200 double-positive was an independent prognostic factor for NDMM[hazard ratio(HR)=2.178,95%confidence interval(CI)1.048 to 4.529;P=0.037].The nomogram and calibration curves constructed from multivariate Cox regression analysis demonstrated good concordance(concordance index=0.706;95%CI 0.661 to 0.751).Conclusion:NDMM patients with double-positive expression of CD45 and CD200 have significantly shorter OS and PFS.Compared with the use of either marker alone,the combined assessment of CD45 and CD200 may provide better prognostic stratification for MM patients.
文摘The charge carrier transport and recombination dynamics in the quantum dots-based light-emitting diodes(QLEDs)featuring multiple emitting layers(M-EMLs)has a great impact on the device performance.In this work,QLEDs based on M-EMLs separated by polyethyleneimine ethoxylated(PEIE)layer with different stacking sequences of blue(B),green(G),and red(R)QDs layer were used to intuitively explore the injection,transportation and recombination processes of the charge carriers in QLEDs by using the time-resolved electroluminescence(TrEL)spectra.From the TrEL spectra mea-surements,green and red emissions were obtained first in the QLEDs with the EMLs sequences of G/PEIE/B/PEIE/R and B/PEIE/R/PEIE/G along the direction of light emission,respectively.While the QLEDs adopt EMLs sequences of B/PEIE/G/PEIE/R,the blue,green and red emissions were obtained nearly at the same time.The above phenomenon can be attributed to different charge carrier transmission and radiation recombination process in the EMLs due to different valence band offsets and conduction band offsets between R-,G-and B-QDs by using different sequences of EMLs.White emission with coordi-nates of(0.31,0.31)and correlated color temperature(CCT)of 5916 K was obtained in the QLEDs with the EMLs se-quences of B/PEIE/G/PEIE/R,which can be attributed to the relative uniform emission of B-,G-and R-QDs due to the effec-tive injection and radiation recombination of charge carriers in each of the EMLs.The above results have great significance for further understanding and improving the performance of QLEDs with M-EMLs.

文摘Dear Editor,This letter addresses the impulse game problem for a general scope of deterministic,multi-player,nonzero-sum differential games wherein all participants adopt impulse controls.Our objective is to formulate this impulse game problem with the modified objective function including interaction costs among the players in a discontinuous fashion,and subsequently,to derive a verification theorem for identifying the feedback Nash equilibrium strategy.
文摘This paper introduces an optimized planning approach for integrating photovoltaic as distributed generation (PV-DG) into the radial distribution power systems, utilizing exhaustive load flow (ELF), loss sensitivity factor (LSF), genetic algorithms (GA) methods, and numerical method based on LSF. The methodology aims to determine the optimal allocation and sizing of multiple PV-DG to minimize power loss through time series power flow analysis. An approach utilizing continuous sensitivity analysis is developed and inherently leverages power flow and loss equations to compute LSF of all buses in the system towards employing a dynamic PV-DG model for more accurate results. The algorithm uses a numerical grid search method to optimize PV-DG placement in a power distribution system, focusing on minimizing system losses. It combines iterative analysis, sensitivity assessment, and comprehensive visualization to identify and present the optimal PV-DG configurations. The present-ed algorithms are verified through co-simulation framework combining MATLAB and OpenDSS to carry out analysis for 12-bus radial distribution test system. The proposed numerical method is compared with other algorithms, such as ELF, LSF methods, and Genetic Algorithms (GA). Results show that the proposed numerical method performs well in comparison with LSF and ELF solutions.
文摘Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome(MEWDS)is an inflammatory fundus disease primarily affecting the outer retina.It is characterized by transient yellow-white dots on the outer retina.Although the exact pathogenesis remains unclear,the progress in multimodal imaging(MMI)has enhanced our understanding of MEWDS.Most cases of MEWDS are idiopathic,lacking a definite cause,and can spontaneously recover;these are what we term classic MEWDS.Consequently,MEWDS is often referred to as the“common cold of the retina”.Simultaneously,patients with other disorders may present with varying degrees of manifestations similar to MEWDS.The resemblance in clinical or imaging findings can lead to misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment.These MEWDS-like presentations are actually caused by other systemic or ocular disorders with diverse mechanisms.Thus,they differ from classic MEWDS in certain aspects.Using the keywords“MEWDSlike”and“Secondary MEWDS”,we searched for all relevant studies published in the PubMed database from January 2021 to January 2024.Subsequently,we retrospectively summarized the clinical and imaging characteristics of MEWDS,along with the manifestations in other diseases that resembled those of MEWDS,and compared classic MEWDS with these similar presentations.Based on our review,we classified such similar presentations under other conditions into two categories and summarized their features for differential diagnosis.We recommend paying close attention to patients suspected of having MEWDS,as there may be more serious systemic or ocular disorders that require prompt treatment.

文摘Hard carbon(HC)is considered the most promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries(SIBs)due to its high costeffectiveness and outstanding overall performance.However,the amorphous and intricate microstructure of HC poses significant challenges in elucidating the structure-performance relationship,which has led to persistent misinterpretations regarding the intrinsic characteristics of closed pores.An irrational construction methodology of closed pores inevitably results in diminished plateau capacity,which severely restricts the practical application of HC in high-energy-density scenarios.This review provides a systematic exposition of the conceptual framework and origination mechanisms of closed pores,offering critical insights into their structural characteristics and formation pathways.Subsequently,by correlating lattice parameters with defect configurations,the structure-performance relationships governing desolvation kinetics and sodium storage behavior are rigorously established.Furthermore,pioneering advancements in structural engineering are critically synthesized to establish fundamental design principles for the rational modulation of closed pores in HC.It is imperative to emphasize that adopting a molecular-level perspective,coupled with a synergistic kinetic/thermodynamic approach,is critical for understanding and controlling the transformation process from open pores to closed pores.These innovative perspectives are strategically designed to accelerate the commercialization of HC,thereby catalyzing the sustainable and high-efficiency development of SIBs.
文摘Active inflammation in“inactive”progressive multiple sclerosis:Traditionally,the distinction between relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis and progressive multiple sclerosis(PMS)has been framed as an inflammatory versus degenerative dichotomy.This was based on a broad misconception regarding essentially all neurodegenerative conditions,depicting the degenerative process as passive and immune-independent occurring as a late byproduct of active inflammation in the central nervous system(CNS),which is(solely)systemically driven.
文摘Objectives:Suicidal ideation(SI)among university students is a growing concern,influenced by anxiety,depression,and bullying.However,family closeness and peer support may act as protective factors,reducing the risk of SI.Therefore,this study aims to investigate the key factors influencing SI among university students,focusing on the effects of anxiety,depression,and bullying,along with the roles of family closeness and peer support.The research also explores the interactions and mechanisms between these variables.Methods:A sample of 318 university students was surveyed,evaluating six main factors:anxiety,depression,bullying,family closeness,peer support,and SI.Using the Structural Equation Modeling(SEM)and Artificial Neural Networks(ANN)approach,both compensatory and non-compensatory relationships were examined.Results:Anxiety,depression,and bullying significantly contribute to SI,with depression mediating the link between anxiety,bullying,and SI.Additionally,family closeness moderates the effects of anxiety and bullying on SI,while peer supportmoderates the effects of depression and bullying.Themultilayer perceptron analysis identifies peer support as the most influential predictor,followed by bullying,family closeness,depression,and anxiety.Conclusion:The study identifies anxiety,depression,and bullying as key factors influencing suicidal ideation(SI)among university students.Family closeness and peer support act as protective factors,moderating the effects of these variables on SI.
