Determination of ancient flow direction can reduce the number of exploration wells, and orientation of natural fractures is of guiding significance to the deployment of water injection development well pattern. In Block X of Huaqing Oilfield, Ordos Basin, the cores of Chang 6<sub>3</sub> section were obtained from Well Y through 16 coring operations, with a total length of 105 m. Cores is oriented through drilling parameters, the number of cores, the angle between the core edge and horizontal bedding, the coincidence degree of core profile and directional flame structure. Therefore, the micro-fractures on the core are directional. The ancient flow directions of sandy debris flow were restored by load casting, groove casting, groove casting and imbricate structure. Our results show that the ancient flow directions of sandy debris flows were southwest, southeast, northwest, and west from bottom to top. The front of the Wuqi Delta is the main source of blocky sandstone with the best oil-bearing property. Affected by the topography of the lake bottom, the sandy debris flow turned locally in the northeast direction, and the sandy debris flow from this direction was formed. The NEE-SWW-trending fractures formed in the Yanshanian period are most developed in the Huaqing area, which should be considered in deploying the flooding well network. The north-south micro-fractures formed in the Himalayan period can improve the physical properties of tight sandstone, which is of great significance for tight sandstone reservoirs.展开更多

Integrins are cell surface adhesion receptors mediating important function of cells such as survival, growth and development during tissue organization, differentiation and organogenesis. In this study, we used an integrin-binding array platform to identify the important types of integrins and their binding peptides that facilitate adhesion, growth, development, and vascular-like network formation of rat primary brain microvascular endothelial cells. Brain microvascular endothelial cells were isolated from rat brain on post-natal day 7. Cells were cultured in a custom-designed integrin array system containing short synthetic peptides binding to 16 types of integrins commonly expressed on cells in vertebrates. After 7 days of culture, the brain microvascular endothelial cells were processed for immunostaining with markers for endothelial cells including von Willibrand factor and platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule. 5-Bromo-2′-dexoyuridine was added to the culture at 48 hours prior to fixation to assess cell proliferation. Among 16 integrins tested, we found that α5β1, αvβ5 and αvβ8 greatly promoted proliferation of endothelial cells in culture. To investigate the effect of integrin-binding peptides in promoting neovascularization and angiogenesis, the binding peptides to the above three types of integrins were immobilized to our custom-designed hydrogel in three-dimensional(3 D) culture of brain microvascular endothelial cells with the addition of vascular endothelial growth factor. Following a 7-day 3 D culture, the culture was fixed and processed for double labeling of phalloidin with von Willibrand factor or platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule and assessed under confocal microscopy. In the 3 D culture in hydrogels conjugated with the integrin-binding peptide, brain microvascular endothelial cells formed interconnected vascular-like network with clearly discernable lumens, which is reminiscent of brain microvascular network in vivo. With the novel integrin-binding array system, we identified the specific types of integrins on brain microvascular endothelial cells that mediate cell adhesion and growth followed by functionalizing a 3 D hydrogel culture system using the binding peptides that specifically bind to the identified integrins, leading to robust growth and lumenized microvascular-like network formation of brain microvascular endothelial cells in 3 D culture. This technology can be used for in vitro and in vivo vascularization of transplants or brain lesions to promote brain tissue regeneration following neurological insults.展开更多

It had been th ought that recovery from such injuries is severely limited due to the inability of the adult bra in to replace damaged neurons. However, recent studies indicate that the mature mammalian central nervous system （CNS） has the potential to replenish damaged neurons by proliferation and neuronal differentiation of adult neural stem/progenitor cells residing in the neurogenic regions in the brain. Furthermore, increasing evidence indicates that these endogenous stem/ progenitor cells may play regenerative and reparative roles in response to CNS injuries or diseases. In support of this notion, heightened levels of cell proliferation and neurogenesis have been ob- served in response to brain trauma or insults suggesting that the brain has the inherent potential to restore populations of damaged or destroyed neurons. This review will discuss the potential functions of adult neurogenesis and recent development of strategies aiming at harnessing this neurogenic capacity in order to repopulate and repair the injured brain.展开更多

The exact function of YAP in bone homeostasis remains controversial. Here we provide evidence for YAP＇s function in promoting osteogenesis, suppressing adipogenesis, and thus maintaining bone homeostasis.YAP is selectively expressed in osteoblast（OB）-lineage cells. Conditionally knocking out Yap in the OB lineage in mice reduces cell proliferation and OB differentiation and increases adipocyte formation, resulting in a trabecular bone loss. Mechanistically, YAP interacts with β-catenin and is necessary for maintenance of nuclear β-catenin level and Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Expression of β-catenin in YAP-deficient BMSCs（bone marrow stromal cells） diminishes the osteogenesis deficit. These results thus identify YAP-β-catenin as an important pathway for osteogenesis during adult bone remodeling and uncover a mechanism underlying YAP regulation of bone homeostasis.展开更多

Previous studies showed that the diel vertical migration (DVM) pattern of mesozooplankton varied among ecosystems. However, that pattern was largely unknown in the Western Pacific Warm Pool (WPWP). The vertical distribution, DVM and community structure of mesozooplankton from the surface to 1 000 m were compared at Stas JL7K (WPWP) and MA (North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, NPSG). Two sites showed similarly low biomass in both epipelagic and mesopelagic zones, which were in accordance with oligotrophic conditions of these two ecosystems. Stronger DVM (night/day ratio) was found at JL7K (1.31) than that at MA (1.09) on surface 0–100 m, and an obvious night increase of mesopelagic biomass was observed at JL7K, which was probably due to migrators from bathypelagic zone. Active carbon flux by DVM of zooplankton was estimated to be 0.23 mmol/(m2·d) at JL7K and 0.16 mmol/(m2·d) at MA. The community structure analysis showed that calanoid copepods, cnidarians and appendicularians were the main contributors to DVM of mesozooplankton at both sites. We also compared the present result with previous studies of the two ecosystems, and suggested that the DVM of mesozooplankton was more homogeneous within the WPWP and more variable within the NPSG, though both ecosystems showed typically extremely oligotrophic conditions. The different diel vertical migration strength of mesozooplankton between NPSG and WPWP implied different efficiency of carbon pump in these two ecosystems.展开更多

文摘An experimental study was conducted to investigate the properties of stratified regular or wavy two-phase flow in two parallel separators located after a manifold.A total of 103 experiments with various gas and liquid velocity combinations in three inlet pipes were conducted,including 77 groups of outlet pipe resistance symmetry and 26 groups of outlet pipe resistance asymmetry trials.The experimental results have revealed that when the gas-liquid flow rate is low,the degree of uneven splitting is high,and“extreme”conditions are attained.When the superficial gas velocity is greater than that established in the extreme case,the direction of the liquid-phase displacement is reversed,while that of the gas remains unchanged.Thus,the degree of gas phase bias tends to be mitigated with an increase in the gas velocity,while the uneven splitting degree of liquid approaches 10%.Finally,varying the gas-phase outlet pipe resistance is shown to effectively change the gas-liquid two-phase flow distribution.
文摘作为胶片电影中最常见的谷粒噪声,其对应的修复算法虽然很多但却存在过度平滑、复杂度高等诸多缺陷.因此运用RGB通道的相关性,提出一种基于分区域双边滤波的噪声修复算法,目标是去除胶片电影中常见的谷粒噪声,为后续斑点、划痕、稳像、闪烁等修复工作提供质量保证.测试结果表明:运用本算法去噪后的图像不仅能满足人眼的视觉要求,而且其峰值信噪比(peak signal to noise ratio,PSNR)值和结构相似性(structural similarity,SSIM)值明显提高,运行时间也几乎缩短为原来的一半,这不仅会提高旧电影的商业价值,而且对挽救国内外大量史实资料具有重要意义.
文摘Traumatic brain injury （TBI） is the leading cause of death and disability of persons under 45 years old in the United States, affecting over 1.5 million individtials each year. It had been th ought that recovery from such injuries is severely limited due to the inability of the adult bra in to replace damaged neurons. However, recent studies indicate that the mature mammalian central nervous system （CNS） has the potential to replenish damaged neurons by proliferation and neuronal differentiation of adult neural stem/progenitor cells residing in the neurogenic regions in the brain. Furthermore, increasing evidence indicates that these endogenous stem/ progenitor cells may play regenerative and reparative roles in response to CNS injuries or diseases. In support of this notion, heightened levels of cell proliferation and neurogenesis have been ob- served in response to brain trauma or insults suggesting that the brain has the inherent potential to restore populations of damaged or destroyed neurons. This review will discuss the potential functions of adult neurogenesis and recent development of strategies aiming at harnessing this neurogenic capacity in order to repopulate and repair the injured brain.

文摘YAP（yes-associated protein） is a transcriptional factor that is negatively regulated by Hippo pathway, a conserved pathway for the development and size control of multiple organs. The exact function of YAP in bone homeostasis remains controversial. Here we provide evidence for YAP＇s function in promoting osteogenesis, suppressing adipogenesis, and thus maintaining bone homeostasis.YAP is selectively expressed in osteoblast（OB）-lineage cells. Conditionally knocking out Yap in the OB lineage in mice reduces cell proliferation and OB differentiation and increases adipocyte formation, resulting in a trabecular bone loss. Mechanistically, YAP interacts with β-catenin and is necessary for maintenance of nuclear β-catenin level and Wnt/β-catenin signaling. Expression of β-catenin in YAP-deficient BMSCs（bone marrow stromal cells） diminishes the osteogenesis deficit. These results thus identify YAP-β-catenin as an important pathway for osteogenesis during adult bone remodeling and uncover a mechanism underlying YAP regulation of bone homeostasis.
文摘Traumatic brain injury（TBI） is a major health problem worldwide.Following primary mechanical insults,a cascade of secondary injuries often leads to further neural tissue loss.Thus far there is no cure to rescue the damaged neural tissue.Current therapeutic strategies primarily target the secondary injuries focusing on neuroprotection and neuroregeneration.The neurotrophin brain-derived neurotrophic factor（BDNF） has significant effect in both aspects,promoting neuronal survival,synaptic plasticity and neurogenesis.Recently,the flavonoid 7,8-dihydroxyflavone（7,8-DHF）,a small Trk B agonist that mimics BDNF function,has shown similar effects as BDNF in promoting neuronal survival and regeneration following TBI.Compared to BDNF,7,8-DHF has a longer half-life and much smaller molecular size,capable of penetrating the blood-brain barrier,which makes it possible for non-invasive clinical application.In this review,we summarize functions of the BDNF/Trk B signaling pathway and studies examining the potential of BDNF and 7,8-DHF as a therapy for TBI.

文摘An environmentally friendly and resource-conserving route to the clean production of electrolytic manganese was developed,in which the electrolytic manganese residue(EMR)was initially calcined for cement buffering;then the generated SO2-containing flue gas was managed using manganese oxide ore and anolyte(MOOA)desulfurization;at last,the desulfurized slurry was introduced to the electrolytic manganese production(EMP).Results showed that 4.0 wt%coke addition reduced the sulfur of calcined EMR to 0.9%,thereby satisfying the cement-buffer requirement.Pilot-scale desulfurization showed that about 7.5 vol%of high SO2 containing flue gas can be cleaned to less than 0.1 vol%through a five-stage countercurrent MOOA desulfurization.The desulfurized slurry had 42.44 g·L-Mn2+and 1.92 g·L-1 S2 O62-,which was suitable for electrowinning after purification,and the purity of manganese product was 99.93%,satisfy the National Standard of China YB/T051-2015.This new integrated technology fulfilled 99.7%of sulfur reutilization from the EMR and 94.1%was effectively used to the EMP.The MOOA desulfurization linked the EMP a closed cycle without any pollutant discharge,which promoted the cleaner production of EMP industry.

文摘Manganese leaching during high concentration flue gas desulfurization process with semi-oxidized manganese ore was studied in this paper.It was found that there were different reaction pathways among which MnO2,Mn2O3 and MnCO3 in semi-oxidized manganese ore during flue gas desulphurization and manganese leaching.High SO2 concentration facilitated redox reaction between MnO2 and SO2,and high concentration of H2SO4 accelerated MnCO3/Mn2O3 leaching from semi-oxidized ore.Kinetics study showed that manganese leaching in flue gas desulfurization process with semi-oxidized ore was controlled by a mixed-control model,that is the surface chemical reaction and mass diffusion dominated both the oxidation of SO2 and manganese leaching process.The apparent activation energy was 13.05 k J·mol-1 and the reaction orders with respect to SO2 and H2SO4 concentration were 1.38 and 0.10,respectively.Finally,a semi-empirical rate equation based on shrinking core model was derived to describe the process.

文摘AIM To investigate factors causing diabetes recurrence after sleeve gastrectomy(SG)and duodenal-jejunal bypass(DJB).METHODS SG and DJB were performed on rats with diabetes induced by high-fat diet(HFD)and streptozotocin(STZ).HFD was used to induce diabetes recurrence at 4 wk postoperatively.Body weight,oral glucose tolerance test,homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance(HOMA-IR),insulin signaling[IR,insulin receptor substrate(IRS 1,IRS2,phosphatidylinositol3-kinase and AKT in liver and skeletal muscle],oral glucose stimulated insulin secretion,beta-cell morphology(mass,apoptosis and insulin secretion),glucagon-like peptide(GLP)-1,PYY and ghrelin were compared among SG rats with common low-fat diet(SG-LFD),SG with HFD(SG-HFD),DJB rats with LFD(DJB-LFD),DJB with HFD(DJB-HFD)and shamoperation with LFD(Sham)at targeted postoperative times.RESULTS SG and DJB resulted in significant improvement in glucose tolerance,lower HOMA-IR,up-regulated hepatic and muscular insulin signaling,higher levels of oral glucose-stimulated insulin secretion,bigger betacell mass,higher immunofluorescence intensity of insulin,fewer transferase-mediated d UTP-biotin 3’nick end-labeling(TUNEL)-positive beta cells and higher postprandial GLP-1 and PYY levels than in the Sham group.The improvement in glucose tolerance was reversed at 12 wk postoperatively.Compared with the SG-LFD and DJB-LFD groups,the SG-HFD and DJB-HFD groups showed higher HOMA-IR,down-regulated hepatic and muscular insulin signaling,and more TUNEL-positive beta cells.No significant difference was detected between HFD and LFD groups for body weight,glucose-stimulated insulin secretion,betacell mass,immunofluorescence intensity of insulin,and postprandial GLP-1 and PYY levels.Fasting serum ghrelin decreased in SG groups,and there was no difference between HFD-SG and LFD-SG groups.CONCLUSION HFD reverses the improvement in glucose homeostasis after SG and DJB.Diabetes recurrence may correlate with re-impaired insulin sensitivity,but not with alterations of beta-cell function and body weight.

文摘Three different NiTi-based alloys,whose nominal compositions were Ni50Ti50,Ni49Ti49Fe2,Ni45Ti51.8Fe3.2(molefraction,%),respectively,were used in the current research to understand the influence of Fe addition on phase transformationbehavior in NiTi shape memory alloy(SMA).The microstructure and phase transformation behavior of the alloys were investigatedby optical microscopy(OM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD)and differential scanningcalorimetry(DSC)analysis.The results show that the matrix of the Ni50Ti50alloy consists of both B19′(martensite)phase and B2(austenite)phase.Moreover,the substructures of twins could be observed in the B19′phase.However,the ternary alloys of NiTiFeexhibit B2phase in the microstructures.Such microstructures were also characterized by large presence of Ti2Ni precipitatesdispersed homogenously in the matrix of the two kinds of alloys.The addition of Fe to the NiTi SMA results in the decrease in phasetransformation temperatures in the ternary alloys.Based on mechanism analysis,it can be concluded that this phenomenon isprimarily attributed to atom relaxation of the distorted lattice induced by Ni-antisite defects and Fe substitutions during phasetransformation,which enables stabilization of B2phase during phase transformation.

文摘The mesozooplankton in both epipelagic and mesopelagic zones is essentially important for the study of ecosystem and biological carbon pump. Previous studies showed that the diel vertical migration (DVM) pattern of mesozooplankton varied among ecosystems. However, that pattern was largely unknown in the Western Pacific Warm Pool (WPWP). The vertical distribution, DVM and community structure of mesozooplankton from the surface to 1 000 m were compared at Stas JL7K (WPWP) and MA (North Pacific Subtropical Gyre, NPSG). Two sites showed similarly low biomass in both epipelagic and mesopelagic zones, which were in accordance with oligotrophic conditions of these two ecosystems. Stronger DVM (night/day ratio) was found at JL7K (1.31) than that at MA (1.09) on surface 0–100 m, and an obvious night increase of mesopelagic biomass was observed at JL7K, which was probably due to migrators from bathypelagic zone. Active carbon flux by DVM of zooplankton was estimated to be 0.23 mmol/(m2·d) at JL7K and 0.16 mmol/(m2·d) at MA. The community structure analysis showed that calanoid copepods, cnidarians and appendicularians were the main contributors to DVM of mesozooplankton at both sites. We also compared the present result with previous studies of the two ecosystems, and suggested that the DVM of mesozooplankton was more homogeneous within the WPWP and more variable within the NPSG, though both ecosystems showed typically extremely oligotrophic conditions. The different diel vertical migration strength of mesozooplankton between NPSG and WPWP implied different efficiency of carbon pump in these two ecosystems.

文摘The development of nano drug delivery systems(NDDSs)provides new approaches to fighting against diseases.The NDDSs are specially designed to serve as carriers for the delivery of active pharmaceutical ingredients(APIs)to their target sites,which would certainly extend the benefit of their unique physicochemical characteristics,such as prolonged circulation time,improved targeting and avoiding of drugresistance.Despite the remarkable progress achieved over the last three decades,the understanding of the relationships between the in vivo pharmacokinetics of NDDSs and their safety profiles is insufficient.Analysis of NDDSs is far more complicated than the monitoring of small molecular drugs in terms of structure,composition and aggregation state,whereby almost all of the conventional techniques are inadequate for accurate profiling their pharmacokinetic behavior in vivo.Herein,the advanced bioanalysis for tracing the in vivo fate of NDDSs is summarized,including liquid chromatography tandemmass spectrometry(LC-MS/MS),Forster resonance energy transfer(FRET),aggregation-caused quenching(ACQ)fluorophore,aggregation-induced emission(AIE)fluorophores,enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),magnetic resonance imaging(MRI),radiolabeling,fluorescence spectroscopy,laser ablation inductively coupled plasma MS(LA-ICP-MS),and size-exclusion chromatography(SEC).Based on these technologies,a comprehensive survey of monitoring the dynamic changes of NDDSs in structure,composition and existing form in system(i.e.carrier polymers,released and encapsulated drug)with recent progress is provided.We hope that this review will be helpful in appropriate application methodology for investigating the pharmacokinetics and evaluating the efficacy and safety profiles of NDDSs.

文摘The rate performance and cycle stability of graphitized needle coke(GNC)as anode are still limited by the sluggish kinetics and volume expansion during the Li ions intercalation and de-intercalation process.Especially,the output of energy density for lithium ion batteries(LIBs)is directly affected by the delithiation capacity below 0.5 V.Here,the mildly expanded graphitized needle coke(MEGNC)with the enlarged interlayer spacing from 0.346 to 0.352 nm is obtained by the two-step mild oxidation intercalation modification.The voltage plateau of MEGNC anode below 0.5 V is obviously broadened as compared to the initial GNC anode,contributing to the enhancement of Li storage below the low voltage plateau.Moreover,the coin full cell and pouch full cell configured with MEGNC anode exhibit much enhanced Li storage ability,energy density and better cycling stability than those full cells configured with GNC and commercial graphite anodes,demonstrating the practical application value of MEGNC.The superior anode behaviors of MEGNC including the increased effective capacity at low voltage and superior cyclic stability are mainly benefited from the enlarged interlayer spacing,which not only accelerates the Li ions diffusion rate,but also effectively alleviates the volume expansion and fragmentation during the Li ions intercalation process.In addition,the above result is further confirmed by the density functional theory simulation.This work provides an effective modification strategy for the NC-based graphite to enhance the delithiation capacity at a low voltage plateau,dedicated to improving the energy density and durability of LIBs.

文摘Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI)is a major cause of acute kidney injury(AKI),which could induce the poor prognosis.The purpose of this study was to characterize the molecular mechanism of the functional changes of CD11 b^(+)/Ly6 C^(intermediate)macrophages after renal IRI.The gene expression profiles of CD11 b^(+)/Ly6 C^(intermediate)macrophages of the sham surgery mice,and the mice 4 h,24 h and 9 days after renal IRI were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.Analysis of m RNA expression profiles was conducted to identify differentially expressed genes(DEGs),biological processes and pathways by the series test of cluster.Protein-protein interaction network was constructed and analysed to discover the key genes.A total of 6738 DEGs were identified and assigned to 20 model profiles.DEGs in profile 13 were one of the predominant expression profiles,which are involved in immune cell chemotaxis and proliferation.Signet analysis showed that Atp5 a1,Atp5 o,Cox4 i,Cdc42,Rac2 and Nhp2 were the key genes involved in oxidation-reduction,apoptosis,migration,M1-M2 differentiation,and proliferation of macrophages.RPS18 may be an appreciate reference gene as it was stable in macrophages.The identified DEGs and their enriched pathways investigate factors that may participate in the functional changes of CD11 b^(+)/Ly6 C^(intermediate)macrophages after renal IRI.Moreover,the vital gene Nhp2 may involve the polarization of macrophages,which may be a new target to affect the process of AKI.

文摘The conversion of waste tire pyrolysis oil(WTPO)into S-doped porous carbon nanorods(labeled as WPCNs)with hierarchical pore structure is realized by a simple template-directed approach.The specific surface area of as-obtained porous carbon nanorods can reach up to 1448 m^(2) g^(−1) without the addition of any activating agent.As the capacitive electrode,WPCNs possess the extraordinary compatibility to capacitance,different electrolyte systems as well as long-term cycle life even at a commercial-level areal mass loading(10 mg cm^(−2)).Besides,only an extremely small capacitance fluctuation is observed under the extreme circumstance(−40 to 80℃),reflecting the excellent high-and low-temperature performance.The relationship between the pore structure and capacitive behavior is analyzed by comparing WPCNs with mesopores-dominated asphalt-derived porous carbon nanorods(APCNs)and micropores-dominated activated carbon.The molecular dynamics simulation further reveals the ion diffusion and transfer ability of the as-prepared carbon materials under different pore size distribution.The total ion flow(NT)of WPCNs calculated by the simulation is obviously larger than APCNs and the N_(T) ratio between them is similar with the experimental average capacitance ratio.Furthermore,this work also provides a valuable strategy to prepare the electrode material with high capacitive energy storage ability through the high value-added utilization of WTPO.
