Abstract:

Crop diversification in saline affected coastal areas is crucial for food security in Bangladesh. A pot experiment was conducted at polythene house at Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur-1706 during May to August, 2017 to determine the effect of salt stress on growth and yield performance of foxtail millets. Five foxtail millets genotypes viz. (i) BARI Kaon-1 (check), (ii) BD-878, (iii) BD-897, (iv) BD-891 and (v) BD-881 were tested under three salt stresses viz. (i) control (0 dS/m), (ii) 6 dS/m and (iii) 12 dS/m. Completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications was followed in the study. The growth parameter viz. stem dry matter, leaf dry matter and root dry matter production of foxtail millets genotypes were significantly varied due to salinity stresses. Salinity stresses also significantly influenced yield and yield contributing characteristics of foxtail millets. The genotypes BD-897 and BD-881 produced the higher dry matter, grains per panicle and grain yield per plants under the saline level of 6 dS/m. The higher stress tolerance index of both the genotypes demonstrate that the genotypes BD-897 and BD-881 were more salt tolerant. Bangladesh Agron. J. 2018, 21(1): 51-59

Abstract:

Ceramic bearings have several desirable properties, such as resistance to wear, hardness, and biocompatibility, that favour it as an articulating surface in hip arthroplasty. However, ceramic fracture remains a concern. We have reviewed the contemporary literature, addressing the factors that can influence the incidence of ceramic bearing surface fracture.

Abstract:

A pot experiment was conducted to study the effects of salt stress on physiological parameters associated to salinity tolerance in foxtail millet plant in the Department of Agronomy, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman Agricultural University, Gazipur, Bangladesh during March to May, 2018. Four foxtail millet genotypes namely i) BD-881 ii) BD-897 iii) BD-878 and iv) BARI kaon-1 were grown and each pot was irrigated using three levels of saline water viz. control (tap water), 60 mM saline water and 120 mM saline water. Results indicated that genotypic variability was profound in salinity tolerance in foxtail millet. The leaves of BD-878 maintained higher water content, higher accumulation of proline, and lower accumulation of malondialdehyde (MDA) as well as less reduction of chlorophyll compared to other genotypes studied. BD-878 also showed relatively higher salinity stress tolerance, while BD-897 was susceptible in relation to yield. Higher salinity tolerance in BD-878 was associated with higher relative leaf water and chlorophylls with accumulation of higher amount of proline and lower accumulation of malondialdehyde content.

Abstract:

During myogenesis myoblasts fuse to form multinucleate cells that express muscle-specific proteins. A specific cell-cell adhesion process precedes lipid bilayer union during myoblast fusion (Knudsen, K. A., and A. F. Horwitz. 1977. Dev. Biol. 58:328-338) and is mediated by cell surface glycoproteins (Knudsen, K. A., 1985. J. Cell Biol. 101:891-897). In this paper we show that myoblast adhesion and myotube formation are inhibited by treating fusion-competent myoblasts with phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). The effect of PI-PLC on myoblast adhesion is dose dependent and inhibited by D-myo-inositol 1-monophosphate and the effect on myotube formation is reversible, suggesting a specific, nontoxic effect on myogenesis by the enzyme. A soluble form of adhesion-related glycoproteins is released from fusion-competent myoblasts by treatment with PI-PLC as evidenced by (a) the ability of phospholipase C (PLC)-released material to block the adhesion-perturbing activity of a polyclonal antiserum to intact myoblasts; and (b) the ability of PLC-released glycoprotein to stimulate adhesion-perturbing antisera when injected into mice. PI-PLC treatment of fusion-competent myoblasts releases an isoform of N-CAM into the supernate, suggesting that N-CAM may participate in mediating myoblast interaction during myogenesis.

Abstract:

The avian leukosis virus subgroup J (ALV-J) belongs to the chicken retrovirus that causes enormous economic losses in the poultry industry. Interferon-stimulated genes (ISGs) are critical for controlling virus infections. Here, we identified 897 type I ISGs induced by interferon-α (IFN-α) in chicken peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) by RNA-Seq. In addition, we further identified 152 potential anti-ALV-J chicken type I ISGs. Among these potential anti-ALV-J ISGs, chicken cholesterol 25-hydroxylase (chCH25H) was selected for further antiviral mechanism studies in chicken embryo fibroblast cell lines (DF1). The gene chCH25H is located on chromosome 6 and clustered in a distinct group with mammals CH25H in the phylogenetic tree. The core promoter region of chCH25H was located within −75/−1 sequence. We found that chCH25H was induced by chicken IFN-α and ALV-J in DF1 cells. The overexpression of chCH25H significantly inhibited ALV-J replication in DF1 cells at 48 h post infection (hpi). In addition, ALV-J replication was significantly enhanced in the chCH25H- knockout DF1 cells. Furthermore, we demonstrated that chCH25H restricted ALV-J infection through the production of 25-hydroxycholesterol (25HC), rather than type I and II interferon. Our results identified 152 potential anti-ALV-J chicken type I ISGs and revealed that 25HC, the product of chCH25H, could be used as a natural antiviral agent to control ALV-J infection.

Full text

Abstract:

The equations describing classical viscous fluid flow are notoriously challenging to solve, even approximately, when the flow is host to one or many immersed bodies. When an immersed body is slender, the smallness of its aspect ratio can sometimes be used as a basis for a ‘slender-body theory’ describing its interaction with the surrounding environment. If the fluid is complex, however, such theories are generally invalid and efforts to understand the dynamics of immersed bodies are almost entirely numerical in nature. In a valiant effort, Hewitt & Balmforth (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 856, 2018, pp. 870–897) have unearthed a theory to describe the motion of slender bodies in a viscoplastic fluid, ‘fluids’ such as mud or toothpaste which can be coaxed to flow, but only with a sufficiently large amount of forcing. Mathematical theories for some tremendously complicated physical systems may now be within reach.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Aim To report a case of conservative nonsurgical management of periapical lesions. Background Small periapical lesions of endodontic origin usually heal by conventional endodontic therapy alone. Larger periapical lesions presumed to be cystic may require additional treatment protocols to aid in regression. Conservative nonsurgical management of such lesions eliminates the possible complications of surgery and has wider patient compliance and acceptance. Case description A periapical cystic lesion associated with maxillary central incisor and lateral incisor was treated conservatively using buccal aspiration decompression followed by conventional endodontic therapy employing calcium hydroxide iodoform paste as intracanal medicament is reported. Clinical significance The treatment was successful as evidenced by relief of symptoms and radiographic evaluation. Conclusion Large periapical cyst-like lesions can resolve by nonsurgical endodontic therapy employing calcium hydroxide intracanal interappointment medicament.

Abstract:

The reaction rate constants of [Formula: see text] with ammonium nitrate (~ 0.1 mol m−3) in 1-propanol-water and 2-propanol–water binary solvents correspond to [Formula: see text] reaction in the water-rich solvents, and to [Formula: see text] reaction in alcohol-rich solvents. The overall rate constant is smaller in solvents with 40–99 mol% water, with a minimum at 70 mol% water. The Arrhenius temperature coefficient is 26 kJ mol−1 in each pure propanol solvent, increases to 29 kJ mol−1 at 40 mol% water, then decreases to 17 kJ mol−1 in pure water solvent. The high reaction rates in the single component solvents, alcohol or water, are limited mainly by solvent processes related to shear viscosity (diffusion) and dielectric relaxation (dipole reorientation). Rate constants reported for concentrated solutions (50–1000 mol m−3) of ammonium and nitrate salts in methanol (Duplâtre and Jonah. J. Phys. Chem. 95, 897 (1991)) have been quantitatively reinterpreted in terms of the ion atmosphere model.

Abstract:

abstract: For any fixed relatively prime positive integers $a$, $b$ and $c$ with $\min\{a,b,c\}>1$, we prove that the equation $a^x+b^y=c^z$ has at most two solutions in positive integers $x$, $y$ and $z$, except for one specific case which exactly gives three solutions. Our result is essentially sharp in the sense that there are infinitely many examples allowing the equation to have two solutions in positive integers. From the viewpoint of a well-known generalization of Fermat's equation, it is also regarded as a 3-variable generalization of the celebrated theorem of Bennett [M.~A. Bennett, On some exponential equations of S. S. Pillai, Canad. J. Math. 53 (2001), no.~2, 897--922] which asserts that Pillai's type equation $a^x-b^y=c$ has at most two solutions in positive integers $x$ and $y$ for any fixed positive integers $a$, $b$ and $c$ with $\min\{a,b\}>1$.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective To determine whether feeding causes a change in feline trypsin-like immunoreactivity (fTLI) in serum from healthy cats. Animals 6 healthy domestic shorthair cats. Procedures For the first 12 days of the study, 3 cats were fed a high-protein, high-fat (diet 1), and the other 3 were fed a maintenance (diet 2). On day 12, diets were switched, and cats were fed the other diet for the remaining 12 days of the study. On days 11 and 23, food was withheld for 24 hours, and baseline serum fTLI was measured. Cats were offered food equivalent to half their daily caloric maintenance requirements, and serum fTLI was measured 1, 2, 4, 6, 12, and 24 hours later. Uneaten food was removed after 1 hour. Results Overall mean ± SD serum fTLI was 22.7 ± 5.8 µg/L when cats were fed diet 1 and 21.1 ± 5.0 µg/L when cats were fed diet 2. There was no significant difference in serum fTLI over time or between diets. However, there was a statistically significant, but clinically unimportant (mean increase, 1.7 µg/L), increase in serum fTLI, compared with baseline values, 1 hour after cats were fed diet 2 but not when cats were fed diet 1. Conclusions and Clinical Relevance A maintenance diet may cause a clinically unimportant increase in serum fTLI 1 hour after feeding in healthy cats. Results suggest that for healthy cats, it is not necessary to withhold food before collecting samples for determination of fTLI in serum. Whether feeding changes fTLI in serum from cats with disorders of the exocrine portion of the pancreas remains to be determined. (Am J Vet Res 1999;60:895–897)

SUMMARY Objective To examine regional distribution of blood flow in the brain of horses at rest and during exercise. Animals 9 clinically normal horses. Procedure Regional brain blood flow was measured using radionuclide-labeled 15-μm-diameter microspheres injected into the left ventricle, while reference blood samples were obtained from the aorta. Results At rest, cerebral cortex and caudate nuclei received significantly higher blood flow, compared with cerebral white matter. A similar perfusion heterogeneity existed in the cerebellum. In the brain stem, a gradual tapering of blood flow from thalamus-hypothalamus towards medulla was observed in standing horses. Progressive significant increases in heart rate and in aortic and right atrial pressures occurred during exercise at 8 and 13 m/s, and horses developed significant arterial hypoxemia and hypercapnia. Cerebral and cerebellar gray- to white-matter perfusion heterogeneity was maintained during exercise, indicating differential metabolic O2 needs. Despite arterial hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and hypertension, exercise did not result in significant changes in blood flow to the cerebral cortex and caudate nuclei whereas, in cerebral white matter, a significant decrease in blood flow was observed. In all cerebral tissues, vascular resistance increased during exercise, indicating autoregulation of cerebral blood flow. In the cerebellar cortex, blood flow increased significantly with strenuous exercise as vasodilation occurred. Vascular resistance in cerebellar white matter increased during exercise at 13 m/s. Blood flow in the medulla, pons, midbrain, and thalamus-hypothalamus was not significantly altered during exercise from that at rest. Conclusion Despite arterial hypoxemia, hypercapnia, and hypertension, autoregulation of cerebral and cerebellar blood flow is maintained in horses during exercise. (Am J Vet Res 1998;59:893–897)

ABSTRACT The effect of dopamine (1 μg/kg per min) on corticosteroid response to ACTH (0·1, 1 and 10 ng/kg per min) was compared with that of a placebo in sodium-replete (150 mmol/day) and -deplete (10 mmol/day) normal man. Dopamine had no effect on aldosterone, cortisol or corticosterone responses in either dietary phase, but increased deoxycorticosterone (897·0 ± 126·4 (s.e.m.) vs 590·0 ±84·3 pmol/l, normal Na+; 1264·2 ±84·3 vs 764·5 ±84·3 pmol/l, low Na+) and deoxycortisol (6·033 ± 0·583 vs 5·048±0·680 nmol/l, normal Na+; 5·112 ± 0·600 vs 4·130± 0·367 nmol/l, low Na+) levels during ACTH administration (all P <0·01). Deoxycorticosterone and corticosterone responses to ACTH were greater during sodium depletion than repletion (both P <0·01). Dopamine therefore increased 11-deoxycorticosteroid concentrations during ACTH-stimulated steroidogenesis. This may reflect action of dopamine to increase extra-adrenal formation of 11-deoxycorticosteroids. J. Endocr. (1986) 109, 339–344

Abstract:

Effects of water deficit induced by polyethylene glycol (PEG-6000) on rice grown in half strength Hoagland solution was studied in the present investigation. Impacts of different water stress (10, 20 and 30% PEG) on some physiological and biochemical characteristics were determined in this investigation. Results showed that water stress significantly affected most physiological and biochemical characteristics. The increasing water stress declined the root and shoot length and fresh and dry weights of root and shoot. An increase in water stress also resulted in reduction of relative water content, leaf pigments and protein content. Upon dehydration, an incline in reducing and total sugar and proline content were evident in the root and shoot of rice. Water-deficit stress resulted in higher superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD) and catalase (CAT) activities but as the severity of the water stress increased, the SOD activity decreased. These crucial characteristics would be expected to be utilized as screening techniques for water stress tolerance to the future development of new variety. Bangladesh J.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Acrylic resin ruled the dental profession for 60 years, and this success is attributed to its aesthetics, handling properties, physical and biological compatibility, its stability in oral environment and its cost effectiveness. The objective of this study is to evaluate and compare the bond strength of acrylic resin teeth treated with various conditioning materials like monomer and silane coupling agent. Methdology A study was carried out in which 96 samples were grouped into 3 groups with a sample size of 32 each (16 premolars, 16 molars). They were conditioned with different conditioning materials i,e monomer and silane coupling agent. Monomer, Silane coupling agent are coated on the ridge lap area before thermocycling and cured according to the manufacturer recommendations. The samples are retained from the flask; trimmed and polished. The samples are then subjected to shear bond strength using the Insteron Universal Testing Machine. Results In the present study it was found that application of monomer increased the bond strength between acrylic teeth and denture base, when compared to the conventionally processed samples. However it was found that application of silane coupling agent further increased the shear bond strength between acrylic teeth and denture base. Interprations and conclusions Within the confines of this study it is found that there was a significant improvement in the bond strength between the acrylic teeth and denture base when silane coupling agent and monomer were used as surface conditioning material. The order of shear strength of samples is control > monomer > silane coupling agent. How to cite this article Madhav GV, Raj S, Yadav N, Mudgal I, Mehta N, Tatwadiya R.

Physiol. 83(3): 897–903, 1997.—Muscle glycogen accumulation was determined in six trained cyclists (Trn) and six untrained subjects (UT) at 6 and either 48 or 72 h after 2 h of cycling exercise at ∼75% peak O2 uptake (V˙o 2 peak), which terminated with five 1-min sprints. Subjects ate 10 g carbohydrate ⋅ kg−1 ⋅ day−1for 48–72 h postexercise. Muscle glycogen accumulation averaged 71 ± 9 (SE) mmol/kg (Trn) and 31 ± 9 mmol/kg (UT) during the first 6 h postexercise ( P < 0.01) and 79 ± 22 mmol/kg (Trn) and 60 ± 9 mmol/kg (UT) between 6 and 48 or 72 h postexercise (not significant). Muscle glycogen concentration was 164 ± 21 mmol/kg (Trn) and 99 ± 16 mmol/kg (UT) 48–72 h postexercise ( P < 0.05). Muscle GLUT-4 content immediately postexercise was threefold higher in Trn than in UT ( P < 0.05) and correlated with glycogen accumulation rates ( r = 0.66, P < 0.05). Glycogen synthase in the active I form was 2.5 ± 0.5, 3.3 ± 0.5, and 1.0 ± 0.3 μmol ⋅ g−1 ⋅ min−1in Trn at 0, 6, and 48 or 72 h postexercise, respectively; corresponding values were 1.2 ± 0.3, 2.7 ± 0.5, and 1.6 ± 0.3 μmol ⋅ g−1 ⋅ min−1in UT ( P < 0.05 at 0 h). Plasma insulin and plasma C-peptide area under the curve were lower in Trn than in UT over the first 6 h postexercise ( P < 0.05). Plasma creatine kinase concentrations were 125 ± 25 IU/l (Trn) and 91 ± 9 IU/l (UT) preexercise and 112 ± 14 IU/l (Trn) and 144 ± 22 IU/l (UT; P < 0.05 vs. preexercise) at 48–72 h postexercise (normal: 30–200 IU/l). We conclude that endurance exercise training results in an increased ability to accumulate muscle glycogen after exercise.

Abstract:

Pieces of rat epididymal adipose tissue were incubated in medium containing [32P]phosphate for 2 h to achieve steady-state labelling of intracellular phosphoproteins and then with or without hormones for a further 15 min. Phosphofructokinase was rapidly isolated from the tissue by use of either Blue Dextran-Sepharose chromatography or immunoprecipitation with antisera raised against phosphofructokinase purified from rat interscapular brown adipose tissue. Similar extents of incorporation of 32P into phosphofructokinase were measured by both techniques. Exposure of the tissue to adrenaline or the beta-agonist isoprenaline increased phosphorylation by about 5-fold (to about 1.4 mol of phosphate/mol of enzyme tetramer). No change in phosphorylation was detected with the alpha-agonist phenylephrine, but exposure to insulin resulted in an approx. 2-fold increase. The increased phosphorylation observed with isoprenaline was found to be associated with a decrease in the apparent Ka for fructose 2,6-bisphosphate similar to that observed on phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase purified from rat epididymal white adipose tissue with the catalytic subunit of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. These results support the view [Sale & Denton (1985) Biochem. J. 232, 897-904] that an increase in cyclic AMP in adipose tissue may result in an increase in glycolysis through the phosphorylation of phosphofructokinase by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase.

Abstract:

The local cerebral glucose utilization (LCGU) of brains from Wistar, lean Zucker (FA/FA), and obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats was investigated using the method of Sokoloff et al. (L. Sokoloff, M. Reiwich, C. Kennedy, M.H. Des Rosiers, C.S. Patlak, K.D. Pettigrew, O. Sakurada, and M. Shinohara. J. Neurochem. 28: 897–916, 1977.). The LCGU of obese Zucker (fa/fa) rats was decreased in comparison to the relatively high values obtained for the lean Zucker (FA/FA) rats in all gray matter areas studied, on average to the extent of 50%. When compared with Wistar rats, several brain areas of lean Zucker (FA/FA) animals had a normal glucose uptake. When these normal areas were assessed for common efferent and afferent pathways, it was found that many of these common connections had normal glucose utilizations. In direct comparison to the obese fa/fa rat, the LCGU rates of these areas were decreased, hinting that this would also be the case for their functional activity. Because these areas (limbic, thalamic, hypothalamic, autonomic) have been reported to be potentially relevant for bringing about the behavioral and neuroendocrine alterations known to occur in obese fa/fa rats, it is proposed that they represent dysfunctions that are partly responsible for the obesity syndrome of the fa/fa strain.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Bacteriocin LlpA, produced by Pseudomonas sp. strain BW11M1, is a peculiar antibacterial protein due to its homology to mannose-binding lectins mostly found in monocots (A. H. A. Parret, G. Schoofs, P. Proost, and R. De Mot, J. Bacteriol. 185:897-908, 2003). Biocontrol strain Pseudomonas fluorescens Pf-5 contains two llpA-like genes, named llpA1 Pf-5 and llpA2 Pf-5. Recombinant Escherichia coli cells expressing llpA1 Pf-5 or llpA2 Pf-5 acquired bacteriocin activity and secreted a 31-kDa protein cross-reacting with LlpABW11M1 antibodies. Antibacterial activity of the recombinant proteins was evidenced by gel overlay assays. Analysis of the antimicrobial spectrum indicated that LlpA1Pf-5 and LlpA2Pf-5 are able to inhibit P. fluorescens strains, as well as the related mushroom pathogen Pseudomonas tolaasii. LlpA-type bacteriocins are characterized by a domain structure consisting of tandem monocot mannose-binding lectin (MMBL) domains. Molecular phylogeny of these MMBL domains suggests that the individual MMBL domains within an LlpA protein have evolved separately toward a specific, as yet unknown, function or, alternatively, were acquired from different ancestral sources. Our observations are consistent with earlier observations, which hinted that MMBL-like bacteriocins represent a new family of antibacterial proteins, probably with a novel mode of action.

Abstract:

Abstract The known metabolic cardiovascular disease risk factors associated with insulin resistance syndrome (IRS) do not adequately explain the excess cardiovascular disease risk attributed to this syndrome, and abnormalities in hemostatic variables may contribute to this excess risk. Using data from 322 nondiabetic elderly men and women (aged 65–100 years) participating in the Cardiovascular Health Study during 1989–1990, the authors performed factor analysis on 10 metabolic risk factors associated with IRS and 11 procoagulation, inflammation, and fibrinolysis variables to examine the clustering of the metabolic and hemostatic risk markers. Factor analysis of the metabolic variables confirmed four uncorrelated factors: body mass, insulin/glucose, lipids, and blood pressure. Adding the hemostatic variables yielded three new factors interpreted as inflammation, vitamin K-dependent proteins, and procoagulant activity. Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 clustered with the body mass factor, supporting the hypothesis that obesity is related to impaired fibrinolysis. Fibrinogen clustered with the inflammation summary factor rather than procoagulant activity, supporting the position that fibrinogen principally reflects underlying inflammation rather than procoagulant potential. The authors conclude that should hemostatic variables be shown to contribute to IRS-related cardiovascular disease, apart from plasminogen activator inhibitor-1, they may do so independently of the established metabolic abnormalities.

Abstract:

The equilibrium O2-binding properties of the hybrid haemoglobin (Hb) present in vivo in erythrocytes from mule and of its parent Hbs from horse and donkey were compared with special reference to the effect of heterotropic ligands such as Cl-, D-glycerate 2,3-bisphosphate (DPG) and inositol hexakisphosphate. All these Hbs display a decreased effect by polyphosphates, confirming that what has been observed for horse Hb [Giardina, Brix, Clementi, Scatena, Nicoletti, Cicchetti, Argentin & Condò (1990) Biochem. J. 266, 897-900] is common to other equine species, at least from a qualitative standpoint. However, different quantitative aspects can be detected, which can be accounted for by a different role for the two types of chain in characterizing the binding free energy for the various heterotropic effectors. In particular, it is shown that the binding mode of DPG and inositol hexakisphosphate displays different features since long-range effects can be observed clearly for inositol hexakisphosphate but not for DPG. In general terms, in spite of a different intrinsic O2 affinity, the modulation of functional properties by third ligands leads these Hbs to behave, under physiological conditions, similarly to human HbA. It might represent an interesting example of how different species with similar functional needs find different ways to produce a similar functional behaviour.

Abstract:

Abstract Objective To determine whether laryngeal hemiplegia would increase transmural pulmonary artery pressure (TPAP). Animals 6 horses. Design Horses were studied under 5 conditions: control conditions, after induction of left laryngeal hemiplegia, during obstruction of the left nostril, after placement of an instrumented tracheostomy, and after placement of an open tracheostomy. Horses were evaluated after being given saline solution and after being given furosemide. Procedures Horses were exercised on a high speed treadmill, using a maximum speed of 13 m/s. During each exercise, airway pressures, airflow, esophageal and pulmonary artery pressures, and blood gas partial pressures were measured. Results When adjusted for horse, speed, and obstruction condition, mean TPAP (pulmonary artery pressure – esophageal pressure) and minimum TPAP were significantly lower after administration of furosemide than after administration of saline solution. In horses given saline solution, respiratory obstruction that increased intrapleural pressure significantly increased mean TPAP, and respiratory obstruction that decreased intrapleural pressure significantly decreased minimum TPAP. Conclusions Changes in intrapleural pressure appear to play an important role in pulmonary artery pressure and TPAP. Clinical Relevance Because induction of laryngeal hemiplegia did not increase TPAP, laryngeal hemiplegia is unlikely to contribute to development of exercise-induced pulmonary hemorrhage.

J Strength Cond Res 38(5): 891–897, 2024—It is unclear what dose of sprint-interval training exercise (exercise volume) is required to derive beneficial metabolic effects during and postexercise. Therefore, we examined how reducing the volume of sprint interval training (SIT) from 2 minutes of “all-out” efforts (8 bouts) to 1.5 minutes (6 bouts) and 1 minute (4 bouts) affected during and postexercise metabolism. Fourteen recreationally active males (age: 25 ± 3 years; body mass index: 25.1 ± 3.1 kg·m−2) had gas exchange measured during and following (3 h) 4 experimental sessions: (a) no-exercise control (CTRL), (b) 8 × 15 SIT (2 minutes exercise), (c) 6 × 15 minutes SIT (1.5 minutes exercise), and (d) 4 × 15 SIT (1 minute exercise). All SIT protocols were 15 seconds “all-out” running efforts with 2 minutes recovery (4, 6, or 8 bouts). Changes were considered important if p < 0.100 and the effect size was ≥medium. During exercise, oxygen consumption (V̇o 2; L) was different between protocols (p < 0.001, d > 2.98) and greater than CTRL (p < 0.001, d > 2.12); however, the rate of O2 consumption (L·min−1) was similar between protocols (p = 0.479, = 0.055). Total V̇o 2 (L) postexercise was elevated following all conditions compared with CTRL (p < 0.003, d > 1.25). Overall session V̇o 2 was different in each condition (p < 0.001, d > 1.89). Fat oxidation was elevated postexercise following all SIT protocols compared with CTRL (p < 0.017, d > 0.98) with no differences between protocols (p > 0.566, d < 0.48). Our results suggest reducing the number of all-out 15 seconds bouts during a SIT session from 8 to 6 or 4 had no differential effects on postexercise metabolism and differences during exercise were due to the longer duration of exercise.

The protective effects of herbicide safeners, including 3-dichloroacetyl-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-oxazolidine (R-28725), 3-dichloroacetyl-2,2-dimethyl-4-ethyl-1,3-oxazolidine (Racemate), and its two enantiomers (R)-3-dichloroacetyl-2,2-dimethyl-4-ethyl-1,3-oxazolidine (R-enantiomer) and (S)-3-dichloroacetyl-2,2-dimethyl-4-ethyl-1,3-oxazolidine (S-enantiomer), on reducing the phytotoxicity of chlorimuron-ethyl to maize were investigated. Soaking the seeds in safeners increased the endogenous glutathione (GSH) content and glutathione-S-transferase (GST) activity of maize. When induced by R-enantiomer, the GST activity in vivo and in vitro increased 180 and 192% compared with control, respectively. R-28725 and R-enantiomer also increased the acetolactate synthase (ALS) activity inhibited by chlorimuron-ethyl from 45 to 100 and 97% compared with the control, respectively. The kinetic parameter Vmax of GST in the maize treated with R-28725 and R-enantiomer increased by 103 and 92%, respectively, compared with the control. Our results suggest that R-28725 and R-enantiomer could significantly improve the GSH content, GST activity, and ALS activity of maize. Overall, maize could be protected from the injury caused by chlorimuron-ethyl.

Plant Sci. 91: 897–906. Wind pollination (anemophily) in gymnosperms is thought to be an ancestral state. Previous studies considered wind pollination to be a largely random phenomenon, but recent evidence suggests that wind-pollinated species have evolved different complex reproductive adaptations for controlling and maximizing the success of wind pollination. However, compared with angiosperms, wind pollination in gymnosperms is poorly understood. We investigated the male reproductive structures of 13 representative gymnosperm species using a scanning electron microscope and digital camera, and analyzed how the morphological characteristics of male cones and pollen facilitate pollination. These characteristics showed a surprising variation between different gymnosperm species in improving pollination success. For example, the relationship between the position of the male cone and the surrounding vegetative structures is adjusted to optimize pollen release. The pollen grains have sacs and papilla and exhibit particular shapes after release from microsporangia, including boat-like, saccate, papilla-like and spheroid shapes, which facilitate pollen dispersal in the air. Taken together, our results suggest that the extensive diversity of male reproductive structures within gymnosperms represents an evolutionary response to long-term selection and results in solutions to the physical restraints of anemophily.

Abstract:

Abstract The platelet counts of patients with cyclic thrombocytopenia (CT) are occasionally associated with menstruation, yet its mechanism is unknown. Leptin has been shown to stimulate the production of Th1 cytokines (Nature1998;27:897), which dominate in idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) (Blood2004;103:2645), and a recent study showed that the serum levels of leptin, whose secretion is menstruation-related, are high in ITP (Eur J Haemataol2004;72:348). Here we examined the serial serum levels of leptin in 3 patients with CT by radioimmunoassay. Case 1 is a 29-year-old woman with ITP who had repeated spontaneous abortion at an early phase of pregnancy accompanied by transient severe thrombocytopenia. Case 2 is a 37-year-old woman diagnosed as having ITP and autoimmune neutropenia during her second pregnancy, whose platelet counts became cyclic after delivery. Case 3 is a 28-year-old woman, who developed CT after splenectomy performed for refractory ITP two years before. The serum leptin levels were inversely correlated with the platelet counts in case 1 (r = −0.573, P =0.047, n=13) and case 3 ( r = −0.771, P =0.029, n=9), and a similar inverse correlation was observed in case 2, although the correlation was statistically not significant (r = −0.524, P=0.116, n=10). These findings suggest that leptin might play an important role in the pathogenesis of menstruation-associated CT. Further interventional studies to give leptin and its antagonists to the patients with CT, as well as to ITP model mice, will be warranted.

Abstract:

To determine the tissue localization of insulin resistance in type 1 diabetic patients, whole body and regional glucose uptake rates were determined under euglycemic hyperinsulinemic conditions. Leg, arm, and heart glucose uptake rates were measured using positron emission tomography-derived 2-deoxy-2-[18F]-fluoro-D-glucose kinetics and the three-compartment model described by Sokoloff et al. (L. Sokoloff, M. Reivich, C. Kennedy, M.C. DesRosiers, C.S. Patlak, K.D. Pettigrew, O. Sakurada, and M. Shinohara. J. Neurochem. 28: 897–916, 1977) in eight type 1 diabetic patients and eight matched normal subjects. Whole body glucose uptake was quantitated by the euglycemic insulin clamp technique. Whole body glucose uptake was approximately 31% lower in the diabetic patients (P < 0.01) than in the normal subjects, thus confirming the presence of whole body insulin resistance. The rate of glucose uptake was approximately 45% lower in leg muscle when measured in the femoral region (55 +/- 7 vs. 102 +/- 13 mumol.kg muscle-1.min-1, diabetic patients vs. normal subjects, P < 0.05) and approximately 27% lower in the arm muscles (66 +/- 4 vs. 90 +/- 13 mumol.kg muscle-1.min-1, respectively, P < 0.05), whereas no difference was observed in heart glucose uptake [789 +/- 80 vs. 763 +/- 58 mumol.kg muscle-1.min-1 not significant (NS)]. Whole body glucose uptake correlated with glucose uptake in femoral (r = 0.93, P < 0.005) and arm muscles (r = 0.66, P < 0.05) but not with glucose uptake in the heart (r = 0.04, NS). We conclude that insulin resistance in type 1 diabetic patients is localized to skeletal muscle, whereas heart glucose uptake is unaffected.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract:

The study of Wagner et al. ( J Neurosci 31: 894–898, 2011) reveals the neural correlates of spontaneously activated action representations in smokers when subjects watch movie characters smoke. We stress the importance of differentiating how these representations are activated: while the anterior intraparietal sulcus and inferior frontal gyrus are part of the mirror neuron system of smokers, the middle frontal gyrus, premotor cortex, and superior parietal lobule represent the smoking-related tool use skills and action knowledge activated by smoking paraphernalia.

Abstract:

The volume of electrolyte used in commercial cylindrical rechargeable Li-ion batteries needs to be closely controlled to optimize performance. It is widely reported in the open literature that insufficient electrolyte can negatively impact cycling performance. However, there are scant reports showing the impact of excessive amounts of electrolyte on cell performance. Here, we show that adding excessive amounts of electrolyte also negatively impacts the cycling performance, causing cells to show faster capacity fade. The effect can be quite significant, causing a noticeable difference within the first 30 cycles, particularly at higher discharge rates (e.g., 1C to 2C rates, Figure 1). It is important to understand the causes of this “high-volume effect” because it sets an additional constraint on the optimization of the system. We have carried out extensive electrochemical impedance measurements of commercial 3.5 Ah 18650 cylindrical cells with various levels of electrolyte (LiPF6/EC/DMC/EMC; 15/25/56/4 wt%) using PEIS and GEIS protocols at an ambient temperature of 25°C. The collected impedance patterns exhibit typical two loop features reported in the literature 1,2 and were modelled by a series combination of one resistance and two parallel R/C elements to extract the cell ohmic and charge transfer resistance values. The total cell resistance of cells with both nominal and high-volume electrolyte show impedance growth during cycling. However, the high-volume cell shows noticeably higher growth of charge transfer resistance. Details of the experimental work and possible mechanism of this effect will be discussed during the presentation. References N. Ogihara et al., J. Electrochem. Soc., 159, A1034–A1039 (2012). W.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT Objective To measure the difference between the intended torque and the achieved torque by the operator using the springstyle mechanical torque-limiting device (MTLD). Materials and methods Inexperienced and experienced clinicians used one spring-type MTLD to torque two abutment screws of each anterior and posterior implants, which were attached to two digital torque meters through a jaw model. The jaw model was part of a preclinical bench manikin attached to a dental chair. The intended torque value was 35 N cm (recommended by manufacturer) and the technique of torquing was observed for all the participants (instantaneous and repeated). The mean torque value was calculated for each subject for the anterior and posterior implants independently; t-test was used to compare between the intended and achieved torque values and to compare between the experienced and inexperienced clinicians (p ≤0.05). Results Thirty-seven clinicians participated, with an overall mean torque value of 34.30 N cm. The mean torque value of the achieved torque (34.30 ± 4.13 N cm) was statistically significantly less than the intended torque (p = 0.041). The male clinicians produced more statistically significantly accurate torque value (34.54 ± 3.78 N cm) than the female clinicians (p = 0.034), and the experienced clinicians produced more accurate torque values (34.9 ± 5.13 N cm) than the inexperienced clinicians (p = 0.048). Conclusion Within the limitation of this study, the use of MTLDs did not always produce consistent torque values and the technique by which the operators use the MTLD might affect the torque value.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT In a previous study, a quorum-sensing signaling system essential for genetic competence in Streptococcus mutans was identified, characterized, and found to function optimally in biofilms (Li et al., J. Bacteriol. 183:897-908, 2001). Here, we demonstrate that this system also plays a role in the ability of S. mutans to initiate biofilm formation. To test this hypothesis, S. mutans wild-type strain NG8 and its knockout mutants defective in comC, comD, comE, and comX, as well as a comCDE deletion mutant, were assayed for their ability to initiate biofilm formation. The spatial distribution and architecture of the biofilms were examined by scanning electron microscopy and confocal scanning laser microscopy. The results showed that inactivation of any of the individual genes under study resulted in the formation of an abnormal biofilm. The comC mutant, unable to produce or secrete a competence-stimulating peptide (CSP), formed biofilms with altered architecture, whereas the comD and comE mutants, which were defective in sensing and responding to the CSP, formed biofilms with reduced biomass. Exogenous addition of the CSP and complementation with a plasmid containing the wild-type comC gene into the cultures restored the wild-type biofilm architecture of comC mutants but showed no effect on the comD, comE, or comX mutant biofilms. The fact that biofilms formed by comC mutants differed from the comD, comE, and comX mutant biofilms suggested that multiple signal transduction pathways were affected by CSP. Addition of synthetic CSP into the culture medium or introduction of the wild-type comC gene on a shuttle vector into the comCDE deletion mutant partially restored the wild-type biofilm architecture and further supported this idea. We conclude that the quorum-sensing signaling system essential for genetic competence in S. mutans is important for the formation of biofilms by this gram-positive organism.

Abstract:

Even though two-thirds of our world's surface is covered by water, less than 1% of that water can be directly consumed to satisfy the rapid growth in population, urbanization, and industrialization.[1] Water quality and scarcity have become some of the most important global challenges of our time. Current desalination technologies such as multi-stage flash distillation and reverse osmosis can be costly to implement and operate, requiring significant pretreatment and consistent maintenance procedures.[2] Thus, investigations into alternative desalination options are being explored toward building more sustainable water treatment systems. Capacitive deionization (CDI) is a desalination technology using highly porous carbon electrodes that can reversibly adsorb dissolved ions. By regulating applied voltages to a CDI cell, ionized salts are trapped in the electric double layers (EDLs) at carbon electrodes, thereafter desalinating water in the CDI cell.[3] CDI technology may have potential advantages over current desalination methods in that no heat treatment or high pressure is required, potentially leading to a significant decrease in the operational and energy costs compared to current desalination processes and aiding in the production of clean/fresh water. Since 2011, researchers from the University of Kentucky Center for Applied Energy Research (UK CAER) have contributed to ongoing efforts to advance CDI technology from theoretical studies to applied process research.[3-22] Works primarily include the improvement of desalination capacity, mitigation of performance degradation, and technology commercialization. In this talk, one of the presenters will provide key milestones of the CDI technology developed at UK CAER in honor of Prof. D. Noel Buckley for his 50-year experience in electrochemistry research.
