| 1 | Altered small-world,functional brain networks in patients with lower back pain显示文摘In this study, we aimed to investigate the functional network changes that occur in patients with lower back pain(LBP). We also investigated the link between LBP and the small-world properties of functional networks within the brain. Functional MRI(fMRI) was performed on 20 individuals with LBP and 17 age and gender-matched normal controls during the resting state. The severity of the pain in the individuals with LBP ranged from 5 to 8 on a 0–10 scale, with 0 indicating no pain. Network-based statistics were performed to investigate the differences between the brain networks of individuals with LBP and those of normal controls. Several small-world parameters of brain networks were calculated, including the clustering coefficient, characteristic path length, local efficiency, and global efficiency. These criteria reflect the overall network efficiency. The brain networks in the individuals with LBP due to herniation of a lumbar disc demonstrated a significantly longer characteristic path length as well as a lower clustering coefficient, global efficiency, and local efficiency compared to those in control subjects. We found that LBP patients tended to have unstable and inefficient brain networks when compared with healthy controls. In addition, LBP individuals showed significantly decreased functional connectivity in the anterior cingulate cortex, middle cingulate cortex, post cingulate cortex, inferior frontal gyrus, middle temporal gyrus, occipital gyrus, postcentral gyrus, precentral gyrus, supplementary motor area, thalamus, fusiform, caudate, and cerebellum. We believe that these regions may be involved in the pathophysiology of lower back pain. | Jing Liu Feng zhang Xiufen Liu Zhizheng Zhuo Juan Wei Minyi Du Queenie Chan Xiaoying Wang Dongxin Wang | 2018 | Science China(Life Sciences)2018,61,11: | 4 |
| 2 | Blockade of deubiquitinase YOD1 degrades oncogenic PML/RARα and eradicates acute promyelocytic leukemia cells显示文摘In most acute promyelocytic leukemia(APL)cells,promyelocytic leukemia(PML)fuses to retinoic acid receptor α (RARα)due to chromosomal translocation,thus generating PML/RARαoncoprotein,which is a relatively stable oncoprotein for degradation in APL.Elucidating the mechanism regulating the stability of PML/RARαmay help to degrade PML/RARαand eradicate APL cells.Here,we describe a deubiquitinase(DUB)-involved regulatory mechanism for the maintenance of PML/RARαstability and develop a novel pharmacological approach to degrading PML/RARαby inhibiting DUB.We utilized a DUB siRNA library to identify the ovarian tumor protease(OTU)family member deubiquitinase YOD1 as a critical DUB of PML/RARα.Suppression of YOD1 promoted the degradation of PML/RARα,thus inhibiting APL cells and prolonging the survival time of APL cell-bearing mice.Subsequent phenotypic screening of small molecules allowed us to identify ubiquitin isopeptidase inhibitor I(G5)as the first YOD1 pharmacological inhibitor.As expected,G5 notably degraded PML/RARαprotein and eradicated APL,particularly drug-resistant APL cells.Importantly,G5 also showed a strong killing effect on primary patient-derived APL blasts.Overall,our study not only reveals the DUB-involved regulatory mechanism on PML/RARαstability and validates YOD1 as a potential therapeutic target for APL,but also identifies G5 as a YOD1 inhibitor and a promising candidate for APL,particularly drug-resistant APL treatment. | Xuejing Shao Yingqian Chen Wei Wang Wenxin Du Xingya Zhang Minyi Cai Shaowei Bing Ji Cao Xiaojun Xu Bo Yang Qiaojun He Meidan Ying | 2022 | Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B2022,12,4: | 1 |
| 3 | Highly adaptive and broadband triboelectric energy harvester with stretching silicone rubber strip for variable harmonic frequency vibration显示文摘An enormous number of wireless sensing nodes(WSNs)are of great significance for the Internet of Things(IoT).It is tremendously prospective to realize the in-situ power supply of WSNs by harvesting unutilized mechanical vibration energy.A harmonic silicone rubber triboelectric nanogenerator(HSR-TENG)is developed focusing on ubiquitous constant working frequency machinery.The unique design of the strip serving as a flexible resonator realizes both soft contact and high and broadband output.The significant factors influencing the 1^(st)-order vibration mode of the strip are developed for realizing the harmonic frequency adaptation to external vibration.The surface treatment of the strip improves the output performance of HSR-TENG by 49.1%as well as eliminates the adhesion effect.The HSR-TENG is able to achieve a voltage output bandwidth of 19 Hz under a vibration strength of 3.0,showing its broadband capability.The peak power density of 153.9 W/m^(3)is achieved and 12×0.5 W light-emitting diodes(LEDs)are successfully illuminated by the HSR-TENG.It can continuously power a temperature sensor by harvesting the actual compressor vibration energy.In brief,the HSR-TENG provides a promising way for constant frequency vibration energy harvesting,so as to achieve in-situ power supply for the WSNs in the vicinity. | Taili Du Dianlong Shen Ziyue Xi Hongyong Yu Fangyang Dong Cong Zhao Meixian Zhu Yongjiu Zou Peiting Sun Minyi Xu | 2024 | Nano Research2024,17,5: | 0 |
| 4 | Distribution of O^(+)and O_(2)^(+) fluxes and their escape rates in the near-Mars magnetotail:A survey of MAVEN observations显示文摘Tailward ion outflows in the Martian-induced magnetotail are known to be one of the major channels for Martian atmospheric escape.On the basis of nearly 6.5 years of observations from the Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN(MAVEN)mission,we investigate the statistical distribution of tailward and Marsward fluxes of heavy ions(i.e.,O^(+),and O_(2)^(+))in the near-Mars magnetotail and explore their characteristic responses to the corotating interaction region(CIR),solar wind dynamic pressure,and local magnetic field intensity.Our results show that the tailward fluxes of oxygen ions and molecular oxygen ions in the magnetotail are significantly greater than their Marsward fluxes and that the tailward flux of molecular oxygen ions is generally larger than that of oxygen ions.Furthermore,the tailward ion flux distribution exhibits dependence on the CIR,solar wind dynamic pressure,and local magnetic field strength in a manner stronger than the Marsward ion flux distribution.According to the distribution of tailward ion fluxes,we calculate the corresponding escape rates of heavy ions and show that when the CIR occurs,the total escape rates of oxygen ions and molecular oxygen ions increase by a factor of~2 and~1.2,respectively.We also find that the escape rates of heavy ions increase with the enhancement of solar wind dynamic pressure,whereas the overall effect of the local magnetic field is relatively weak.Our study has important implications for improved understanding of the underlying mechanisms responsible for the Martian atmospheric escape and the evolution of the Martian atmospheric climate. | HengLe Du Xing Cao BinBin Ni Song Fu Xin Ma XiaoTong Yun MinYi Long Qiong Luo | 2022 | Earth and Planetary Physics2022,6,6: | 0 |
