Overexpression of microRNAs miR-25-3p,miR-185-5p and miR-132-3p in Late Onset Fetal Growth Restriction,Validation of Results and Study of the Biochemical Pathways Involved

In a prospective study, 48 fetuses were evaluated with Doppler ultrasound after 34 weeks and classified, according to the cerebroplacental ratio (CPR) and estimated fetal weight (EFW), into fetuses with normal growth and fetuses with late-onset fetal growth restriction (LO-FGR). Overexpression of miRNAs from neonatal cord blood belonging to LO-FGR fetuses, was validated by real-time PCR. In addition, functional characterization of overexpressed miRNAs was performed by analyzing overrepresented pathways, gene ontologies, and prioritization of synergistically working miRNAs. Three miRNAs: miR-25-3p, miR-185-5p and miR-132-3p, were significantly overexpressed in cord blood of LO-FGR fetuses. Pathway and gene ontology analysis revealed over-representation of certain molecular pathways associated with cardiac development and neuron death. In addition, prioritization of synergistically working miRNAs highlighted the importance of miR-185-5p and miR-25-3p in cholesterol efflux and starvation responses associated with LO-FGR phenotypes. Evaluation of miR-25-3p; miR-132-3p and miR-185-5p might serve as molecular biomarkers for the diagnosis and management of LO-FGR; improving the understanding of its influence on adult disease.

HCFC141b气体水合物快速生成实验研究

制冷剂气体水合物快速均匀生成是气体水合物蓄冷技术实用化的关键.1~7℃内,实验中首次发现与试管壁面接触的铁丝对表面活性剂(十二烷基苯磺酸钠)水溶液与HCFC141b(CH3CC l2F,R141b)液体静态生成气体水合物有巨大影响:铁丝与壁面的接触位置改变了R141b气体水合物的成核点和生成区域,明显缩短了气体水合物的引导时间,大大加快了水合反应,相同条件下,穿过两相界面(十二烷基苯磺酸钠水溶液和R141b液体界面)与试管侧壁面接触的铁丝对R141b气体水合物生成的诱导作用最强;气体水合物不但可以在水和制冷剂液体两相界面上或水相中首先生成,而且也可以在制冷剂相中独立完成;水分子贴着玻璃壁面要比直接通过R141b液体容易扩散;水合率随恒温槽温度的变化表明环境温度仍然是决定水合反应快慢的基本因素之一.

企业新雇员工作适应发展的纵向研究:SOF-LGM建模

采用二阶潜变量增长模型(SOF-LGM)考察了企业新雇员进入组织6个月左右的工作适应发展轨迹及影响因素.结果发现:新雇员进入企业6个月内工作适应水平增长显著,呈先快后慢的非线性发展模式;新雇员的主动社会化行为对其工作适应的初始水平和变化率均有显著影响,而组织的社会化策略则只对新雇员工作适应的变化率有显著影响.

华北地区高大平房仓稻谷控温储粮情况研究

对华北地区某高大平房仓的稻谷空调控温储藏情况进行了监测研究。结果表明：度夏期间,利用空调控温技术,仓房内空间温度和表层平均粮温可有效控制在22 ℃以下,但同一粮层不同位点温度差异大,在粮堆表层、西墙、南墙附近局部位置粮温仍会出现高于25 ℃的情况。受夏季外界环境高温影响,粮堆中心与侧壁附近温差10 ℃以上,存在“冷心热皮”引起的水分迁移现象。水分和温度在距离粮堆表层和仓房侧壁0.5 m附近易升高,成为霉菌易滋生的重点部位,同时,也是发芽率降低和脂肪酸值易升高的位置。因此,在控温储粮过程中需加强对粮堆表层和仓房侧壁粮情的监控。

NGF Enhances CGRP Release Evoked by Capsaicin from Rat Trigeminal Neurons: Differential Inhibition by SNAP-25-Cleaving Proteases

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is known to intensify pain in various ways, so perturbing pertinent effects without negating its essential influences on neuronal functions could help the search for much-needed analgesics. Towards this goal, cultured neurons from neonatal rat trigeminal ganglia—a locus for craniofacial sensory nerves—were used to examine how NGF affects the Ca²⁺-dependent release of a pain mediator, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), that is triggered by activating a key signal transducer, transient receptor potential vanilloid 1 (TRPV1) with capsaicin (CAP). Measurements utilised neurons fed with or deprived of NGF for 2 days. Acute re-introduction of NGF induced Ca²⁺-dependent CGRP exocytosis that was inhibited by botulinum neurotoxin type A (BoNT/A) or a chimera of/E and/A (/EA), which truncated SNAP-25 (synaptosomal-associated protein with Mr = 25 k) at distinct sites. NGF additionally caused a Ca²⁺-independent enhancement of the neuropeptide release evoked by low concentrations (<100 nM) of CAP, but only marginally increased the peak response to ≥100 nM. Notably, BoNT/A inhibited CGRP exocytosis evoked by low but not high CAP concentrations, whereas/EA effectively reduced responses up to 1 µM CAP and inhibited to a greater extent its enhancement by NGF. In addition to establishing that sensitisation of sensory neurons to CAP by NGF is dependent on SNARE-mediated membrane fusion, insights were gleaned into the differential ability of two regions in the C-terminus of SNAP-25 (181–197 and 198–206) to support CAP-evoked Ca²⁺-dependent exocytosis at different intensities of stimulation.
