This paper presents two algorithms to solve the multipath problem. Firstly, we improve the Line of Possible Mobile Device(LPMD) algorithm by optimizing the utilization of the direct paths for single-bound scattering scenario. Secondly, the signal path reckoning method with the assistance of geographic information system is proposed to solve the problem of localization with multi-bound scattering paths. With the building model's idealization, the proposed method refers to the idea of ray tracing and dead reckoning. According to the rule of wireless signal reflection, the signal propagation path is reckoned using the measurements of emission angle and propagation distance, and then the estimated location can be obtained. Simulation shows that the proposed method obtains better results than the existing geometric localization methods in multipath environment when the angle error is controlled.展开更多

Besides,the research used the fluorescence quantitative PCR technique to detect the expression level of MSTN, Smad2, Smad3, Smad4,TGFBR1 and TGFBR2 genes in m RNA of Turpan black sheep muscle. The research also used conventional and histological methods to determine the muscle growth and meat producibility indices, discussed the relationship between MSTN/Smad signal path and muscle growth and meat production. The result shows that these genes are expressed in Turpan black sheep muscle tissues, and have some relationship with body weight, height, length, chest circumference, hoof circumference, carcass and dressing percentage. The MSTN gene is negatively correlated with body weight(r = 0.993, P < 0.05), and hoof circumference(r= 0.957, p < 0.01), but has no significant correlation with body height, length, carcass weight, dressing percentages(P > 0.05);Smad2 gene shows significantly negative correlation the with dressing percentage(r = 0.918, p < 0.05), but no significant correlation with body weight, height, length, chest circumference, hoof circumference and carcass(P > 0.05); Smad3 gene shows no significant correlation with any of them(P > 0.05); Smad4, TGFBR1, TGFBR2 did not show any significant relationship with body height, length, chest circumference, weight and dressing percentage(P > 0.05).展开更多

Methods: Firstly, CCK8 was used to analyze the safety and efficacy concentration of TF‑SB on MPC‑5 cells. Then, MPC‑5 was then divided into the control group, model group and TF‑SB group. In addition to the control group, model group and TF‑SB group were induced by high glucose to establish MPC‑5 cell injury model. The effects of TF‑SB on ATP, apoptosis and ROS levels of MPC‑5 cells were detected respectively. The contents of IL‑1β, TNF‑α, and MCP‑1 were determined by ELISA, the expression abundance of glycolytic genes (GLU1, PFK1 and HK1) were detected by RT‑PCR. Western blot method was used to detect the expression level of related proteins in Smad4/PKM2/HIF‑1α pathway. Results: Compared with the blank group, ATP content, GLU1, PKF1 and HK1 expression abundance of MPC‑5 cells in the model group decreased significantly, apoptosis, ROS level and IL‑1 β、 TNF‑ α And MCP‑1 significantly increased (P<0.01);Compared with model group, ATP content, GLU1, PKF1 and HK1 expression abundance, apoptosis, ROS level and IL‑1β in TF‑SB group were significantly increased , TNF‑ α The contents of MCP‑1 and MCP‑1 decreased significantly (P<0.01). In addition, compared with the blank group, the model group Smad4 and HIF‑1 α The protein expression and PKM2 expression in nucleus were significantly increased, while PKM2 expression in cytoplasm was significantly decreased (P<0.01);Compared with model group, TF‑SB group Smad4, HIF‑1 α The expression of PKM2 in the nucleus and expression of PKM2 were significantly decreased, while the expression of PKM2 in the cytoplasm was significantly increased (P<0.01). Conclusion: TF‑SB promotes the mitochondrial activity of MPC‑5 cells to induce glycolysis, and then inhibits the secretion of inflammation, which may play a role in treating diabetes nephropathy by inhibiting Smad4/PKM2/HIF‑1α signaling pathway.展开更多

The mechanism of resistance was studied. Methods Cell viability was determined using the MTT assay. Crizotinib-induced apoptosis in H2228 and H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells treated with the indicated doses of crizotinib was measured at different times(24 h, 48 h, 72 h) using flow cytometry. The levels of p-ALK, ALK, p-STAT3, STAT3, and survivin after treatment of cells with 0, 0.3, and 1 μM crizotinib for 72 h were determined using Western blot analysis. DNA sequencing was used to identify mutations in H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells. Results The crizotinib IC50 values in H2228 and H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells at 72 h were 334.5 n M and 3418 n M, respectively. The resistance index of H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells was 10.20. Crizotinib induced apoptosis in H2228 cells and reduced the levels of p-ALK, p-STAT3, and survivin. In contrast, no changes in the levels of p-ALK, p-STAT3, and survivin were observed in H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells. The mutations 2067G→A and 2182G→C in EML4-ALK were present in the H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells. Conclusion Crizotinib decreased the viability of H2228 cells in a dose- and time-dependent manner. In the STAT3/survivin pathway, downregulation of p-ALK, p-STAT3, and survivin might contribute to crizotinib-induced apoptosis in H2228 cells. However, the STAT3/survivin pathway in H2228 crizotinib-resistant cells was unaffected by crizotinib treatment. Acquired resistance in H2228 cells might be related to ALK mutations.展开更多
