Extracellular Vesicles and Asthma—More Than Just a Co-Existence

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membranous structures, which are secreted by almost every cell type analyzed so far. In addition to their importance for cell-cell communication under physiological conditions, EVs are also released during pathogenesis and mechanistically contribute to this process. Here we summarize their functional relevance in asthma, one of the most common chronic non-communicable diseases. Asthma is a complex persistent inflammatory disorder of the airways characterized by reversible airflow obstruction and, from a long-term perspective, airway remodeling. Overall, mechanistic studies summarized here indicate the importance of different subtypes of EVs and their variable cargoes in the functioning of the pathways underlying asthma, and show some interesting potential for the development of future therapeutic interventions. Association studies in turn demonstrate a good diagnostic potential of EVs in asthma.

双参数Bézier曲线的升二次扩展

本文以二次Bernstein基函数为例,首次提出了含双参数基函数的新扩展——αβQ—Bern-stein基函数,此类基函数具有新的特点,即基函数的扩展次数一次性升高两次,且包含了二次多项式和带一个参数的三次多项式基函数的所有性质。基于这组基函数定义了αβQ—Bézier曲线,该曲线也含有参数,具有形状可调性,当α与β取某些值时曲线能达到C4连续或在某个端点处C0连续。最后与含两个参数的升一次Bézier曲线进行比较,该曲线具有调节范围广、灵活性更强的优势。     

In Vitro Characterization of Neutralizing Hen Antibodies to Coxsackievirus A16

Coxsackievirus A16 (CA16) is one of the major causative agents of hand, foot, and mouth disease (HFMD). Children aged <5 years are the most affected by CA16 HFMD globally. Although clinical symptoms of CA16 infections are usually mild, severe complications, such as aseptic meningitis or even death, have been recorded. Currently, no vaccine or antiviral therapy for CA16 infection exists. Single-chain variable fragment (scFv) antibodies significantly inhibit viral infection and could be a potential treatment for controlling the infection. In this study, scFv phage display libraries were constructed from splenocytes of a laying hen immunized with CA16-infected lysate. The pComb3X vector containing the scFv genes was introduced into ER2738 Escherichia coli and rescued by helper phages to express scFv molecules. After screening with five cycles of bio-panning, an effective scFv antibody showing favorable binding activity to proteins in CA16-infected lysate on ELISA plates was selected. Importantly, the selected scFv clone showed a neutralizing capability against the CA16 virus and cross-reacted with viral proteins in EV71-infected lysate. Intriguingly, polyclonal IgY antibody not only showed binding specificity against proteins in CA16-infected lysate but also showed significant neutralization activities. Nevertheless, IgY-binding protein did not cross-react with proteins in EV71-infected lysate. These results suggest that the IgY- and scFv-binding protein antibodies provide protection against CA16 viral infection in in vitro assays and may be potential candidates for treating CA16 infection in vulnerable young children.     

基于WNN与FCM的电动汽车动态充电负荷预测方法

随着电动汽车动态无线充电(EV-DWC)技术的发展,针对目前EV-DWC负荷建模理论工作不全面的现状,以交通流量作为影响充电负荷的主要因素,以天气、典型日期、季节等因素为次要影响因素,根据路况建立负荷模型,通过电动汽车型号和状态的聚类不同对汽车分配不同的功率,完成动态充电负荷的建立。采用小波神经网络(WNN)对时序信息进行处理预测,再同误差反向传播神经网络(BPNN)相结合预测充电道路上的车流,短期车流预测精度为85%,用模糊C聚类(FCM)算法对电动汽车的充电类型以及该类型所对应的充电功率进行划分,将进入充电道路的电动汽车分为7种类型。根据各种充电类型分配相应的充电功率,完成日负荷建模。

Configurational statistics of copolymers prepared by complex-radical polymerization

Radical copolymerization is considered theoretically taking into account the effect of complexing on the configurational statistics of macromolecules formed. Akinetic model has been developed that considers, apart from the ordinary addition of single monomer units to a propagating chain, the possible addition of monomer unit pairs along with a complexing agent in the form of a ternary complex. Within the framework of this model, the problem of calculating the probabilities of formation of any sequences of monomer units (taking into account their microtacticity) in a macromolecule has been rigorously solved as well as the problem of finding the composition distribution of the copolymer formed. It has been shown that this distribution is described by a conventional Gauss law and the appropriate parameters are given. Possible generalizations of the suggested approach are indicated.
