High Temperature Solid Oxide Fuel Cells(SOFC)

The history and the state of the art of solid oxide fuel cells(SOFC)is reviewed in this paper.Itdescribes mainly on the material selection,structure design and technological economics of SOFC.The appli-cation of great amount of rare earth materials in SOFC may well extend the market potential of rare earthmaterials in the world.A research project to be carried out as early as possible in China on the SOFC tech-nology will be far-reaching.

Mitogenic effect of erythropoietin on cultured aortic myocytes

The administration of recombinant erythropoietin (rHuEpo) to anemic chronic renal failure patients may be associated with an increase in blood pressure, possibly by direct effects on peripheral blood vessels. In the present study, experiments were designed to explore the hypothesis that rHuEpo could enhance vascular resistance through mitogenic effect on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and that preexisting hypertension might be a predisposing condition. Cultured VSMCs from the thoracic aortae of spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats were studied for DNA synthesis, phospholipase C activity, and cell growth related proto-oncogene expression in the presence of rHuEpo. In cells from both strains, rHuEpo dose-dependently increased DNA synthesis and stimulated phospholipase C activity, as indicated by 3H-thymidine incorporation and 3H-inositol phosphate formation, respectively (EC50 approximately 4 U/ml). Exposure of VSMCs to rHuEpo for various times gradually increased the levels of c-myc and junB and transiently induced c-fos expression, as determined by Northern analysis. rHuEpo-induced DNA synthesis was markedly enhanced in VSMCs from SHR compared to those from WKY. In contrast, rHuEpo-induced phospholipase C activity and proto-oncogene expression did not differ between the two strains. Taken together, these results suggest that rHuEpo may function as a vascular smooth muscle cell growth promoting factor through activation of the phospholipase C cascade and modulation of proto-oncogene expression. It could thereby contribute to vascular hypertrophy and arterial hypertension.

N-Methyl-D-aspartate attenuates opioid receptor-mediated G protein activation and this process involves protein kinase C

The effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) on opioid receptor-mediated G protein activation were explored in neuroblastoma X glioma hybrid (NG108-15) cells. Treatment of the cells with NMDA resulted in a remarkable attenuation of [35S]guanosine-5'-O-(3-thio)triphosphate binding stimulated by [D-Pen2,D-Pen5]-enkephalin (DPDPE), a delta-opioid receptor agonist. The effects of NMDA were dose and time dependent with an IC50 value of 5 nM and could be blocked by NMDA receptor antagonists. After NMDA treatment, the DPDPE dose-response curve shifted to the right (EC50 value increased approximately 7-fold, from 6 to 40 nM), and the maximal response induced by DPDPE was reduced by approximately 60%. The effects of NMDA were reversible, and the DPDPE response could recover within 60 min. The functional responses of delta-, mu-, and kappa-opioid receptors in primarily cultured neurons also were attenuated significantly by NMDA treatment. The inhibitory effects of NMDA on opioid receptor-mediated G protein activation could be blocked by coadministration of the protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitors or by elimination of the extracellular Ca2+. Correspondingly, NMDA treatment of NG108 cells significantly elevated cellular PKC activity and stimulated Gialpha2 phosphorylation. Transient transfection into NG108-15 cells of the wild-type Gialpha2 and a mutated Gialpha2 (Ser144Ala) resulted in a 2-fold increase in DPDPE-stimulated G protein activation. The DPDPE responses were greatly inhibited by NMDA treatment in the wild-type Gialpha2-transfected cells but much less affected in the mutant Gialpha2-transfected cells. In summary, NMDA attenuates opioid receptor/G protein coupling, and this process requires activation of PKC.
