This paper shows that the electrochemical mass transport in polypyrrole(Ppy) thin film deposited electrode, involves the rheological change and electrochromatics of the Ppy. These changes can be detected by measuring the resonant frequency, resonant resistance, and UV spectrum of a Ppy deposited quartz crystal. A Ppy deposited quartz crystal is used and measured the cyclic voltammograms in KClO_(4) electrolyte solution. The changes of the resonant frequency and resonant resistance showed that mass transport and viscoelastic changes occur in the Ppy film. The absorption change means that the electrochromatics change occurs also in the Ppy film

Rhim, E.M.,Ahn, S.J.,Kim, J.Y.,Chang, Y.R.,Kim, K.H.,Lee, H.W.,Jung, S.H.,Kim, E.C.,Park, S.H. Academic Press 2013 Cryobiology Vol.67 No.2

Cryopreservation is used to protect vital periodontal ligaments during the transplantation of teeth. We investigated which gene products implicated in root resorption are upregulated in human periodontal ligament cells by cryopreservation, and whether cryopreservation affects the expression of macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) in human periodontal ligament cells. We used customized microarrays to compare gene expression in human periodontal ligament cells cultured from teeth immediately after extraction and from cryopreserved teeth. Based on the result of these assays, we examined M-CSF expression in periodontal ligament cells from the immediately extracted tooth and cryopreserved teeth by real-time PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), Western blot analysis, and immunofluorescence. We also investigated whether human bone marrow cells differentiate into tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) positive osteoclasts when stimulated with RANKL (Receptor Activator for Nuclear Factor κ B Ligand) together with any secreted M-CSF present in the supernatants of the periodontal ligament cells cultured from the various groups of teeth. M-CSF was twofold higher in the periodontal ligament cells from the rapid freezing teeth than in those from the immediately extracted group (p<0.05). Cryopreservation increased M-CSF expression in the periodontal ligament cells when analyzed by real time PCR, ELISA, Western blotting, and immunofluorescence (p<0.05). TRAP positive osteoclasts were formed in response to RANKL and the secreted M-CSF present in the supernatants of all the experimental groups except negative control. These results demonstrate that cryopreservation promotes the production of M-CSF, which plays an important role in root resorption by periodontal ligament cells.

This study was carried out to determine necessary conditions for optimal ventilation of small windowless piglet house (4.0 (W) × 11.0 (L) × 2.6(H) m) with corridor and attic for preheating using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) simulation. The experimental weaning piglet house was consisted of a corridor, an attic, 4 rooms (3.0 (W) × 2.75(L) m), 3 fences (0.7(H) m), 5 air inlets and 2 exhaust fans (0.4 (D) m) and simulated using CFD code, FLUENT. The simulation results for the experimental weaning piglet house showed that each room was uniformly ventilated under all the experimental conditions and air velocities at 0.1 m above floor are less than 0.15 m/s for 0.75 m/s and 1.0 m/s of air inlet velocity but 0.61 m/s for 1.25 m/s. The simulation results are similar to the measured results. Considering the air flow pattern, ventilating efficiency, air velocity at 0.1 m above floor and cold stress of weaning piglets and so on, the optimum velocity of air inlet might be 1.0 m/s.

The beneficial effect of glucose and phosphate ions in culture medium on the development of human embryos in vitro has not been fully elucidated. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of fertilization and culture of embryos in glucose/phosphate-free m-TALP medium on pregnancy rates in IVF-ET program. The patients in 244 IVF-ET cycles received GnRH agonist + HMG regimens. A does of 10,000 IU HCG was administered when two or more dominent follicles reached 18mm in diameter. Thirty-six hours after HCG, oocytes were recovered transvaginally using ultrasound guidance. Aspirated oocytes were matured for 4 to 6 h in TCM-199 supplemented with 10% follicular fluid (FF). Insemination was carried out with 50,000 motile spermatozoa in TCM-199 + 10% FF or m-TALP + 5% FF + 5% fetal cord serum (FCS) according to experimental design. After 6 h, oocytes were washed 3 to 4 times and cultured in each fresh medium. After 20 h, oocytes were freed from cumulus/corona cells and examined for the presence of pronuclei. Fertilized oocytes were transferred into each co-culture drops and cultured for further incubation. On day 3, embryo transfer was performed with grade 1 and 2 embryos. Monolayers for co-culture of embryos were prepared by plating $1{\times}10^5$ cumulus cells/ml in 10ul drop of TCM-199 + 10% FF or m-TALP + 5% FF + 5% FCS media 24 h prior to the onset of co-culture. Development to 4 to 16 cell stage was observed at 70x magnification following two days of incubation. Pregnancy was confirmed by detecting increasing serum ${\beta}$-hCG concentrations for 11 days following embryo transfer. Data were analyzed by ${\chi}^2$-test. Oocytes from 244 IVF-ET cycles were randomized. The number of cycles and mean age of patients were 97 and 147, 31.3 yrs and 31.2 yrs for TCM-199 (control) and m-TALP groups, respectively. The mean number of retrieved oocytes/cycle, fertilization rates, number of embryos transferred/ET and pregnancy rates were 11.1 and 10.3, 65.1% and 67.3%, 4.1 and 4.7, 28.9% and 43.8% for TCM-199 and m-TALP groups, respectively. Differences in the pregnancy rates were found between control and m-TALP groups (p<0.05). The pregnancy rate of patients divided according to maternal age groups of ${\leq}30$, 31-35, $36{\leq}$ were 44.4% and 49.0%, 26.1% and 41.3%, 29.2% and 41.2% for control and m-TALP groups, respectively. These data indicate that culture of human embryos in glucose/phosphate-free m-TALP medium improves pregnancy rates.

Cordycepin inhibits vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation

Chang, W.,Lim, S.,Song, H.,Song, B.W.,Kim, H.J.,Cha, M.J.,Sung, J.M.,Kim, T.W.,Hwang, K.C. North-Holland ; Elsevier Science Ltd 2008 european journal of pharmacology Vol.597 No.1

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PTCA) is a common procedure for treating atherosclerosis, but its efficacy is limited because of the occurrence of restenosis within 3-6 months after angioplasty. Restenosis is induced by the remodeling of the vessel wall and/or the accumulation of cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) in the intimal layer. Therefore, the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) system may be a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of restenosis or atherosclerosis. Cordycepin is reported to possess many pharmacological activities including immunological stimulating, anti-cancer, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activities. The effect of cordycepin on restenosis has not yet been clearly elucidated. Therefore, in the present study, we tested the role of cordycepin on the MMP system in vascular smooth muscle cells. In the carotid artery of a balloon-injured Sprague-Dawley (SD) rat, neointimal formation was reduced by treatment with cordycepin (20 μM/day, i.p), which inhibited the proliferation of rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RaoSMCs). To investigate the mechanism by which cordycepin inhibits the remodeling of the vessel wall and/or the accumulation of cells and ECM, we examined the activation of MMP systems in collagen type I-activated RaoSMCs. Cordycepin markedly inhibited the activation of MMP-2 and -9 as well as the expression of extracellular matrix metalloproteinase inducer (EMMPRIN) in a dose-dependent manner in collagen type I-activated RaoSMCs. Moreover, cordycepin suppressed cycloxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression related to hyperplasia of RAoSMCs. Taken together, these data suggest that cordycepin may induce antiproliferation in RAoSMCs via the modulation of vessel wall remodeling. Therefore, cordycepin may be a potential therapeutic approach to treat restenosis.

<P>We evaluated a new immunochromatographic assay (ICA) using mouse monoclonal anti-MPT64 antibody for rapid discrimination between Mycobacterium tuberculosis and nontuberculous mycobacteria in clinical isolates. A study with mycobacteria and other organisms showed excellent sensitivity (approximately equal 99%) and specificity (100%) and an appropriate detection limit (10(5) CFU/ml) when tested with M. tuberculosis H37Rv. This ICA can simplify the identification of M. tuberculosis in clinical laboratories.</P>

A computational study was carried out in order to investigate aerodynamic characteristics on leading edge sweepback angles of Flying-Wing configurations. The viscous-compressible Navire-Stokes equation and Spalart-Allmaras turbulence model of the commercial CFD code were adopted for this computation analysis. This investigation examined aerodynamic characteristics of three different types of leading edge sweepback angles: 30°, 35° and 40°. The freestream Mach number was M=0.80 and the angle of attack ranged from a=0° to a=20°. The results show that the increases in sweepback angle of the Flying-Wing configuration creates more efficient aerodynamic performance.

Offspring have been produced from somatic cells in a number of species. This biotechnology introduced a new phenomenon in reprogramming and differentiation of somatic cell, namely totipotency. However, birth of oversized calves and perinatal abnormalities such as increased gestation length, lack of spontaneous parturition, higher incidence of dystocia, and reduced perinatal viability of offspring are frequently observed in pregnancies of cloned bovine fetuses. Disturbance of feto-placenta has been proposed as likely causes for abnomal growth. However. Little is known the mechanism responsible for the perinatal problems. Therefore, we focused on gestation length in somatic cell nuclear recipient cows. To solve this issues, placental tissues of control and cloned bovine were obtained by a cesarean section (C-section) before 5 days of paturition. Total RNA from control and cloned bovine placenta was extractd by TRIzol reagent. GeneFishing DEG kits (Seegene) were used to identify differentially expression genes. Total RNA (3 ug) were synthesized by M-MLV reverse transcriptase (200 u/ul) with 10 uM dT-annealing control primer (ACP1) at 42C for 90 min. Then, first-strand cDNA (50 ng) was amplified using the 5 uM arbitary ACP (1-20) and 10 uM dT-ACP2 primers. Some specific expression genes were amplified, Now, we are cloning and sequencing. These finding strongly can be support to solve the problems for parturition delay in nuclear transfer cows, suggest that placenta specific proteins are key indicators for the aberration of gestation and placental function in cows.
