The aim of this study is to explore the correlations between fasciology and yin yang doctrine. Professor Yuan developed fasciology by three-dimensional reconstruction of connective tissue (fascia) in the trunk and limbs of the human body and tracing back to tissue origins in light of biological evolution and developmental biology. Fasciology states that the human body can be divided into two systems: the supporting-storing system and the functional system. This article elaborates on the roles of the two systems and their mutual relationship. The two systems are used to analyze the yin,the yang, and their relationship. The two systems are promoted but also restricted in different contexts. The supporting-storing system is formed by undifferentiated connective tissue and provides undifferentiated cells and nutrients for differentiated cells of the functional system. Thus, the supporting-storing system could be classified as quiet, similar to yin. The functional system continuously maintains the various functional activities of the human body. Thus, the functional system could be classified as active, similar to yang. In interpreting the yin yang doctrine from the point of view of fasciology, yin can be compared with the supporting-storing system and yang can be compared with the functional system.

Necroptosis is the major cause of death in alveolar epithelial cells (AECs) during acute lung injury (ALI). Here, we report a previously unrecognized mechanism for necroptosis. We found an accumulation of mitochondrial citrate (citratemt) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated AECs because of the downregulation of Idh3α and citrate carrier (CIC, also known as Slc25a1). shRNA- or inhibitor–mediated inhibition of Idh3α and Slc25a1 induced citratemt accumulation and necroptosis in vitro. Mice with AEC-specific Idh3α and Slc25a1 deficiency exhibited exacerbated lung injury and AEC necroptosis. Interestingly, the overexpression of Idh3α and Slc25a1 decreased citratemt levels and rescued AECs from necroptosis. Mechanistically, citratemt accumulation induced mitochondrial fission and excessive mitophagy in AECs. Furthermore, citratemt directly interacted with FUN14 domain-containing protein 1 (FUNDC1) and promoted the interaction of FUNDC1 with dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), leading to excessive mitophagy-mediated necroptosis and thereby initiating and promoting ALI. Importantly, necroptosis induced by citratemt accumulation was inhibited in FUNDC1-knockout AECs. We show that citratemt accumulation is a novel target for protection against ALI involving necroptosis.

Association of Polymorphisms in Stress-Related TNFα and NPY Genes with the Metabolic Syndrome in Han and Hui Ethnic Groups

Bu, De-Yun,Ji, Wen-Wu,Bai, Dan,Zhou, Jian,Li, Hai-Xia,Yang, Hui-Fang Asian Pacific Journal of Cancer Prevention 2014 Asian Pacific journal of cancer prevention Vol.15 No.14

Background: Metabolic syndrome (MS) is a cluster of complicated disorders caused by the interactive influencing factors of heredity and environment, which predisposes to many cnacers. Results from epidemic research indicate that stress is tightly related to the pathogenesis of MS and neoplasia. This paper aims to investigate the association between psychological stress and MS with respect to the tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF${\alpha}$) and neuropeptide Y (NPY) genes in the Han and Hui ethnic groups. Methods: All subjects for this case-control study matched strict enrollment criteria (nationality, gender and age) and lived in the city of Wu Zhong of Ningxia Province in China. The enrolled group contained 102 matched pairs of Hui ethnic individuals and 98 matched pairs of Han ethnic individuals. Enrolled subjects completed the general Symptom Checklist-90 (SCL-90). The TNF${\alpha}$-308G/A variant and NPYrs16147 polymorphism were detected in case (81 males, 119 females) and control (81 males, 119 females) groups by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification. Results: Nine factors of the SCL-90 were found to be statistically different (p<0.05) between case and control groups. The homozygous mutant genotype (AA) and the mutant allele (A) of the TNF${\alpha}$-308G/A gene were less frequently observed in the control population compared to the case group. The odds ratio (95% confidence interval) in "Allele" for MS was 2.28 (1.47-3.53), p=0.0001, while "OR" was 1.11 (0.83-1.47), p=0.15, for the NPYrs16147 gene polymorphism. Conclusions: Psychological stress has been positively associated with MS. A previous study from our group suggested there were differences in the level of psychological stress between Hui and Han ethnic groups. Furthermore, we found that the stress-related TNF${\alpha}$ gene was associated with MS for both Han and Hui ethnic groups. In contrast, NPY may be a possible contributor to MS and associated cancer for the Han ethnic group.

Pectinase and Naringinase Help to Improve Juice Production and Quality from Pummelo (Citrus grandis) Fruit

Hui Ni,Yuan Fan Yang,Feng Chen,Hai Feng Ji,Hu Yang,Wu Ling,Hui Nong Cai 한국식품과학회 2014 Food Science and Biotechnology Vol.23 No.3

Pectinase and naringinase were investigated forimproving the production of pummelo juice by increasingthe juice yield and eliminating juice bitterness. Comparedto a control, the enzymatic treatment significantly (p<0.05)increased the juice yield, soluble pectin and total solublesolid (TSS) contents, and the clarity, while decreasing theconcentrations of the bitter chemicals naringin, limonin,and nomilin. A combined processing treatment of peelingand enzymatic hydrolyses using 5U/g of pectinase and 0.4 U/gof naringinase at 50oC for 60 min resulted in a juice yieldof 42.3%, a TSS content of 11.4oBx, a titrable acidity (TA)of 0.96%, a vitamin C concentration of 38.4 mg/100 mL,and concentrations of naringin, limonin, and nomilin of42.4 μg/mL, 33.5 μg/mL, and 13.3 μg/mL, respectively. The enzymatic method was effective and practical forproduction of high quantity pummelo juice.

Loanword adaptation of English coronal fricatives into Mandarin Chinese

Hui Yang,Mira Oh 경희대학교 언어정보연구소 2020 언어연구 Vol.37 No.1

This paper investigates how the coronal voiceless fricatives /s/ and /ʃ/ in English are adapted in Mandarin Chinese. The few-to-many mappings between /s/ and /ʃ/ in English and /s, ʂ, ɕ/ in Mandarin Chinese will be studied based on the corpus of 493 English loanwords taken from Oxford Advanced Learner’s English – Chinese Dictionary (7th edition, 2009), Xiandai Hanyu Cidian (Modern Chinese Dictionary 6th edition, 2009) and Google searches (2013). The results of a corpus study demonstrate three key findings. First, the alveolar fricative in English is mapped to the corresponding loan sound in Mandarin Chinese, depending on the following vowel to conform to native phonotactics. Second, the adaptation of the palato-alveolar fricative is mainly determined by its internal acoustic cues. Third, it is noted that the stress of the s-initial syllable exerts influence on how /s/ in a cluster (/s/ followed by another consonant) is mapped to a loan sound in Mandarin Chinese. These findings suggest that loan adaptation makes a crucial reference to featural co-occurrence constraints, in that a consonant of interest can be mapped to different loan sounds due to native phonotactics. Notably, they also indicate that suprasegmental information comes into play when vocalic information is not available next to a consonant of interest. The roles of external and suprasegmental cues in the adaptation of coronal fricatives of English into Mandarin Chinese argue for the perceptual view (Silverman 1992) as opposed to the phonological view (Lacharité and Paradis 2005) on loanword adaptation.
