Real-Time analysis of exosome secretion of single cells with single molecule imaging

The exosome-mediated response can promote or restrain the diseases by regulating the intracellular pathways, making the exosome become an effective marker for diagnosis and therapeutic control at the single-cell level. However, real-time analysis is hard to be achieved with traditional approaches because the exosomes usually need to be enriched by ultracentrifugation for a measurable signal-to-noise ratio. Recently developed label-free single-molecule imaging approaches may become an real-time quantitative tool for the analysis of single exosomes and related secretion behaviors of single living cells owing to their extreme sensitivity.

Involvement of IL-4, IL-13 and Their Receptors in Pancreatic Cancer

Interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-13 are known as pleiotropic Th2 cytokines with a wide range of biological properties and functions especially in immune responses. In addition, increasing activities have also been determined in oncogenesis and tumor progression of several malignancies. It is now generally accepted that IL-4 and IL-13 can exert effects on epithelial tumor cells through corresponding receptors. Type II IL-4 receptor (IL-4Rα/IL-13Rα1), predominantly expressed in non-hematopoietic cells, is identified to be the main target for both IL-4 and IL-13 in tumors. Moreover, IL-13 can also signal by binding to the IL-13Rα2 receptor. Structural similarity due to the use of the same receptor complex generated in response to IL-4/IL-13 results in overlapping but also distinct signaling pathways and functions. The aim of this review was to summarize knowledge about IL-4 and IL-13 and their receptors in pancreatic cancer in order understand the implication of IL-4 and IL-13 and their receptors for pancreatic tumorigenesis and progression and for developing possible new diagnostic and therapeutic targets.     

绝对式光电编码器的编码理论研究进展

介绍了用于角度测量的绝对式光电旋转编码器的编码理论研究概况,具体包括反射式格雷码、矩阵码、m序列码和单码道格雷码的绝对位置编码方法和编码特征。绝对位置编码的发展过程是以唯一性和单变性为基础特性,以单码道性为最终目标进行编码矩阵列数的缩减。目前,编码类型的发展经历了n条码道的反射式格雷码、n/3条码道矩阵码、2条码道的m序列码以及1条码道的单码道格雷码,已经达到单码道的最终目标。由于单码道格雷码编码理论尚不完善,仍依赖搜索获得编码,因此其快速构造方法是未来绝对位置编码理论的发展方向。最后,对近几年发展起来的基于图像传感器的非编码测量方法进行了介绍和展望,该方法是对传统测量方法的颠覆,有望成为光电式旋转编码器的另一个发展方向。

为了解决新型铰接式弯管的变形问题,利用ANSYS软件对铰接式弯管进行建模和流固耦合分析,发现原始弯管两侧中部内凹、弯径增大、最大应力超过许用应力,据此提出了导流器错位排布方案.结果 表明:采用方案三错位排布导流器方案、将导流器间距设为70 mm时得到最优方案,优化后的弯管4最大应力由178.12 MPa降低到92.4 MPa、降低了52％,弯管12最大应力由289.52 MPa降低到135.4 MPa、降低了47％,取得了较好的优化效果,为180°弯管导流器设计提供了一种新方案.     

刚性航天器的预定义时间滑模控制

针对刚性航天器在姿态跟踪控制中存在的系统不确定及外界干扰等问题,提出了一种预定义时间滑模控制器(PTSMC).首先,给出了以四元数为姿态参数的航天器姿态跟踪控制系统,利用误差四元数和误差角速度设计了预定义时间滑模面.然后,考虑了航天器系统的不确定性和外界干扰设计了一种非保守上界的PTSMC,并通过边界层技术降低了系统抖动.最后,通过设计Lyapunov函数,证明了所提出的控制器的预定义时间稳定性和系统收敛时间上界的非保守性.仿真结果表明,刚性航天器的姿态跟踪误差精度可达1.5×10-6 rad,角速度跟踪误差精度可达2×10-6 rad/s.与现有的预定义时间控制器相比,所提出的控制器的稳定时间上限是更加非保守的,与传统PD控制和非奇异终端滑模控制相比,所提出的控制器具有更高的跟踪精度和鲁棒性.通过3自由度气浮平台的姿态跟踪实验进一步说明了控制方案的有效性,其中角度跟踪误差小于0.1 rad,位置跟踪误差小于0.2 m.

Effect of phosphogypsum on saline-alkalinity and aggregate stability of bauxite residue

A column experiment was conducted to investigate the effect of phosphogypsum (PG) on the saline- alkalinity, and aggregate stability of bauxite residue. Results showed that: with increasing leaching time, the concentrations of saline-alkali ions decreased while the concentration increased in bauxite residue leachate; compared with CK (control group) treatment, pH, electric conductivity (EC), exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP), sodium absorption ratio (SAR), and exchangeable Na⁺ content of bauxite residue were reduced following PG treatment; average particle sizes in aggregates following CK and PG treatments were determined to be 155 and 193 nm, respectively. SR-μCT test results also confirmed that bauxite residue following PG treatment acquired larger aggregates and larger pore diameter. These results indicate that the PG treatment could significantly modulate the saline-alkalinity, and simultaneously enhance aggregate stability of bauxite residue, which provides a facile approach to reclaim bauxite residue disposal areas.
