Abstract:

In this paper, a new state called superposition of multiple-photon-added two-mode squeezed vacuum state (SMPA-TMSVS) is introduced by adding the multiple photons to both modes of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TMSVS). We explicitly investigate the degree of quantum entanglement, the Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen (EPR) correlation and the quantum steering in the SMPA-TMSVS. The results show in the SMPA-TMSVS that the degree of entanglement and the EPR correlation can be enhanced by nonlocal adding photons to a TMSVS. The quantum steering appears in the SMPA-TMSVS in case the superposition of single-photon addition [Formula: see text], in which mode [Formula: see text] can steer mode [Formula: see text]. By using the SMPA-TMSVS as an entangled resource, the quantum teleportation process is studied in detail based on the Vaidman–Braunstein–Kimble (VBK) protocol.

Abstract:

In this paper, we study some non-classical properties and propose the generation schemes of the superposition of multiple-photon-added two-mode squeezed vacuum state (SMPA-TMSVS). Based on the Wigner function, we clarify that this state is a non-Gaussian state, while the original two-mode squeezed vacuum state (TMSVS) is a Gaussian state. Besides, the SMPA-TMSVS is sum squeezing, as well as difference squeezing. In particular, the manifestation of the sum squeezing and the difference squeezing in the SMPA-TMSVS becomes more pronounced when increasing parameters r and e. In addition, by exploiting the schemes of photon-added superposition in the usual order, we give some schemes that the SMPA-TMSVS can be generated with the higher-order photon-added superposition by using some optical devices.

Abstract:

Abstract Background Implantable cardiovascular therapeutic devices, while hemodynamically effective, remain limited by thrombosis. A driver of device-associated thrombosis is shear-mediated platelet activation (SMPA). Underlying mechanisms of SMPA, as well as useful biomarkers able to detect and discriminate mechanical versus biochemical platelet activation, are poorly defined. We hypothesized that SMPA induces a differing pattern of biomarkers compared with biochemical agonists. Methods Gel-filtered human platelets were subjected to mechanical activation via either uniform constant or dynamic shear; or to biochemical activation by adenosine diphosphate (ADP), thrombin receptor-activating peptide 6 (TRAP-6), thrombin, collagen, epinephrine, or arachidonic acid. Markers of platelet activation (P-selectin, integrin αIIbβ3 activation) and apoptosis (mitochondrial membrane potential, caspase 3 activation, and phosphatidylserine externalization [PSE]) were examined using flow cytometry. Platelet procoagulant activity was detected by chromogenic assay measuring thrombin generation. Contribution of platelet calcium flux in SMPA was tested employing calcium chelators, ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA), and BAPTA-AM. Results Platelet exposure to continuous shear stress, but not biochemical agonists, resulted in a dramatic increase of PSE and procoagulant activity, while no integrin αIIbβ3 activation occurred, and P-selectin levels remained barely elevated. SMPA was associated with dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential, but no caspase 3 activation was observed. Shear-mediated PSE was significantly decreased by chelation of extracellular calcium with EDTA, while intracellular calcium depletion with BAPTA-AM had no significant effect. In contrast, biochemical agonists ADP, TRAP-6, arachidonic acid, and thrombin were potent inducers of αIIbβ3 activation and/or P-selectin exposure. This differing pattern of biomarkers seen for SMPA for continuous uniform shear was replicated in platelets exposed to dynamic shear stress via circulation through a ventricular assist device-propelled circulatory loop. Conclusion Elevated shear stress, but not biochemical agonists, induces a differing pattern of platelet biomarkers—with enhanced PSE and thrombin generation on the platelet surface. This differential biomarker phenotype of SMPA offers the potential for early detection and discrimination from that mediated by biochemical agonists.

Abstract:

The Significant Market Power Act (SMPA) adopted in 2009 regulates the assessment of, and the prevention of, the abuse of market power in the sale of agricultural and food products. The Act generated many controversies from the outset, survived legislative proposals for its abolition, to be finally amended in 2016. However, this kind of legislation failed to solve most of the problems and even managed to create additional controversies. The new amendment formally simplified the actual wording of the SMPA by transposing its numerous earlier appendixes, which contained an exemplary list of prohibited forms of SMP abuse, to the actual text of the Act. It also improved transparency and clarity with respect to its earlier vague and ambiguous terminology. At the same time, the amendment seriously modified the scope and principal philosophy of the SMPA by removing the previously required “substantial detriment to economic competition” as the pre-condition of the applicability of the Act. However, since the enforcement of the SMPA falls into the scope of the activities of the Czech Office for Protection of Economic Competition (in Czech Úřad pro ochranu hospodářské soutěže, UOHS), the concerns and doubts of the business community continue to grow whether this form of regulation is appropriate after the modification of the concept.

Abstract:

AbstractRecruitment of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to damaged tissue is a crucial step to modulate tissue regeneration. Here, the migration of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) responding to thermal and mechanical stimuli was investigated using programmable shape-memory polymer actuator (SMPA) sheets. Changing the temperature repetitively between 10 and 37 °C, the SMPA sheets are capable of reversibly changing between two different pre-defined shapes like an artificial muscle. Compared to non-actuating sheets, the cells cultured on the programmed actuating sheets presented a higher migration velocity (0.32 ± 0.1 vs. 0.57 ± 0.2 μm/min). These results could motivate the next scientific steps, for example, to investigate the MSCs pre-loaded in organoids towards their migration potential.

Abstract:

We investigated, herein, the effects of dietary inclusion of sugarcane bagasse powder (SB) on Nile tilapia development, mucosal and serum immunities, and relative immune and antioxidant genes. Fish (15.12 ± 0.04 g) were provided a basal diet (SB0) or basal diet incorporated with SB at 10 (SB10), 20 (SB20), 40 (SB40), or 80 (SB80) g kg−1 for 8 weeks. Our results demonstrated that the dietary incorporation of sugarcane bagasse powder (SB) at 20 and 40 g kg−1 significantly ameliorated FW, WG, and SGR as opposed to fish fed basal, SB10, and SB80 diets. However, no significant changes in FCR and survivability were observed between the SB supplemented diets and the control (basal diet). The mucosal immunity exhibited significantly higher SMLA and SMPA activities (p < 0.005) in fish treated with SB diets after eight weeks. The highest SMLA and SMPA levels were recorded in fish fed SB80 followed by SB20, SB40, and SB10, respectively. For serum immunity, fish fed SB incorporated diets significantly ameliorated SL and RB levels (p < 0.05) compared with the control. However, SP was not affected by the inclusion of SB in any diet throughout the experiment. The expression of IL1, IL8, LBP, GSTa, GPX, and GSR genes in the fish liver was significantly increased in fish fed the SB20 and SB10 diets relative to the basal diet fed fish (p < 0.05); whereas only the IL8, LBP, and GPX genes in the intestines were substantially augmented via the SB20 and SB80 diets (p < 0.05). IL1 and GSR were not influenced by the SB incorporated diets (p > 0.05). In summary, sugarcane bagasse powder (SB) may be applied as a feed additive to improve growth performance, immune response, and immune and antioxidant-related gene expression in Nile tilapia.

Abstract:

Abstract A novel pulse encoding strategy for RF switch-mode power amplifier (SMPA) is proposed in this paper to achieve benefits of multi-level delta-sigma modulators (DSM) while alleviating challenges that multi-level DSM brings to SMPA. The pulse encoder consists of a multi-level delta-sigma modulators (DSM) followed by a level transformation module (LTM). Based on the equal-area criterion, LTM directly maps the multi-level DSM pulse train into a binary pulse train which enables a simple system configuration. The feasibility and effectiveness of proposed strategy are verified by numerical simulation and experimental measurement. Results show that, with a similar coding efficiency, the proposed strategy obtains more than 7 dB improvement in average in-band signal to noise ratio (SNR) compared to traditional two-level DSM.

Abstract:

The practicum conversation in School of Music and Performing Arts teacher educating programs An arena for development of students’ professional understandings This article addresses the practicum training in Norwegian teacher educating programs, and focuses on the practicum conversation, where three participants of the teacher educating program meet: the student, the teacher educator and the practicum supervisor. By observing students’ practicum-related teaching in School of Music and Performing Arts (SMPA) as well as practicum conversations related to this teaching, the aim of this study is to investigate how the practicum conversation functions as an arena where students acquire professional understanding, as well as exploring the understandings of the SMPA teacher profession that appear in these conversations between the three participants. The results are discussed in light of theory of professions and socio-cultural learning theory. The article argues for the importance of students’ active participation in the community of practice, and highlights some challenges associated with the practicum conversation and the relationship between educational institutions and the practice field.

Abstract:

Constructing walking robots is attractive but poses many inevitable problems. Solutions often involve behaviorbased approaches. Subsumption architecture (SSA)is an example effective in responsibility, adaptability, and robustness in contrast to knowledge-based SMPA architecture. Often, in SSA studies, robots are constructed centralized, sacrificing recoverability; SSA also has no learning. We propose a distributed hierarchy based on SSA by building a hierarchically distributed robot, in which each agent is build of SSA and having robust failure recovery. We study the validity of the proposed approach.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT In Escherichia coli, YaeT, together with four lipoproteins, YfgL, YfiO, NlpB, and SmpA, forms a complex that is essential for β-barrel outer membrane protein biogenesis. Data suggest that YfgL and YfiO make direct but independent physical contacts with YaeT. Whereas the YaeT-YfiO interaction needs NlpB and SmpA for complex stabilization, the YaeT-YfgL interaction does not. Using bioinformatics, genetics, and biochemical approaches, we have identified three residues, L173, L175, and R176, in the mature YfgL protein that are critical for both function and interactions with YaeT. A single substitution at any of these sites produces no phenotypic defect, but two or three simultaneous alterations produce mild or yfgL-null phenotypes, respectively. Interestingly, biochemical data show that all YfgL variants, including those with single substitutions, have weakened in vivo YaeT-YfgL interaction. These defects are not due to mislocalization or low steady-state levels of YfgL. Cysteine-directed cross-linking data show that the region encompassing L173, L175, and R176 makes direct contact with YaeT. Using the same genetic and biochemical strategies, it was found that altering residues D227 and D229 in another region of YfgL from E221 to D229 resulted in defective YaeT bindings. In contrast, mutational analysis of conserved residues V319 to H328 of YfgL shows that they are important for YfgL biogenesis but not YfgL-YaeT interactions. The five YfgL mutants defective in YaeT associations and the yfgL background were used to show that SurA binds to YaeT (or another complex member) without going through YfgL.

Mechatronics, dynamics, and robotics involving humans are a world of strong nonlinearity. This paper investigates the approach to the emergence of the target behavior of an autonomous mobile robot by learning with Subsumption Architecture (SA) to break through the problems of the conventional robotics with the SMPA (Sense-Model-Plan-Act) framework in the real world. It has showed the way things are learned in the real world with SA and has been developed into a practical curriculum for education as an introduction to robotics that has an intellectual and emotional appeal.

Abstract:

The outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria is an essential compartment containing a specific complement of lipids and proteins that constitute a protective, selective permeability barrier. Outer membrane β-barrel proteins are assembled into the membrane by the essential hetero-oligomeric BAM complex, which contains the lipoprotein BamE. We have identified a homologue of BamE, encoded by CC1365, which is located in the outer membrane of the stalked alpha-proteobacterium Caulobacter crescentus. BamE associates with proteins whose homologues in other bacteria are known to participate in outer membrane protein assembly: BamA (CC1915), BamB (CC1653) and BamD (CC1984). Caulobacter cells lacking BamE grow slowly in rich medium and are hypersensitive to anionic detergents, some antibiotics and heat exposure, which suggest that the membrane integrity of the mutant is compromised. Membranes of the ΔbamE mutant have normal amounts of the outer membrane protein RsaF, a TolC homologue, but are deficient in CpaC*, an aggregated form of the outer membrane secretin for type IV pili. ΔbamE membranes also contain greatly reduced amounts of three TonB-dependent receptors that are abundant in wild-type cells. Cells lacking BamE have short stalks and are delayed in stalk outgrowth during the cell cycle. Based on these findings, we propose that Caulobacter BamE participates in the assembly of outer membrane β-barrel proteins, including one or more substrates required for the initiation of stalk biogenesis.

Abstract:

Purpose A review on additive manufacturing (AM) of shape memory polymer composites (SMPCs) is put forward to highlight the progress made up to date, conduct a critical review and show the limitations and possible improvements in the different research areas within the different AM techniques. The purpose of this study is to identify academic and industrial opportunities. Design/methodology/approach This paper introduces the reader to three-dimensional (3 D) and four-dimensional printing of shape memory polymers (SMPs). Specifically, this review centres on manufacturing technologies based on material extrusion, photopolymerization, powder-based and lamination manufacturing processes. AM of SMPC was classified according to the nature of the filler material: particle dispersed, i.e. carbon, metallic and ceramic and long fibre reinforced materials, i.e. carbon fibres. This paper makes a distinction for multi-material printing with SMPs, as multi-functionality and exciting applications can be proposed through this method. Manufacturing strategies and technologies for SMPC are addressed in this review and opportunities in the research are highlighted. Findings This paper denotes the existing limitations in the current AM technologies and proposes several directions that will contribute to better use and improvements in the production of additive manufactured SMPC. With advances in AM technologies, gradient changes in material properties can open diverse applications of SMPC. Because of multi-material printing, co-manufacturing sensors to 3D printed smart structures can bring this technology a step closer to obtain full control of the shape memory effect and its characteristics. This paper discusses the novel developments in device and functional part design using SMPC, which should be aided with simple first stage design models followed by complex simulations for iterative and optimized design. A change in paradigm for designing complex structures is still to be made from engineers to exploit the full potential of additive manufactured SMPC structures. Originality/value Advances in AM have opened the gateway to the potential design and fabrication of functional parts with SMPs and their composites. There have been many publications and reviews conducted in this area; yet, many mainly focus on SMPs and reserve a small section to SMPC. This paper presents a comprehensive review directed solely on the AM of SMPC while highlighting the research opportunities.

Abstract:

AbstractLittle is known about the outer membrane structure ofBrachyspira hyodysenteriae and Brachyspira pilosicolior the role of outer membrane proteins (OMPs) in host colonization and the development of disease. The isolation of outer membrane vesicles fromB. hyodysenteriaehas confirmed that cholesterol is a significant outer membrane constituent and that it may impart unique characteristics to the lipid bilayer structure, including a reduced density. Unique proteins that have been identified in theB. hyodysenteriaeouter membrane include the variable surface proteins (Vsp) and lipoproteins such as SmpA and BmpB. While the function of these proteins remains to be determined, there is indirect evidence to suggest that they may be involved in immune evasion. These data may explain the ability of the organism to initiate chronic infection. OMPs may be responsible for the unique attachment ofB. pilosicolito colonic epithelial cells; however, the onlyB. pilosicoliOMPs that have been identified to date are involved in metabolism. In order to identify furtherB. pilosicoliOMPs we have isolated membrane vesicle fractions from porcine strain 95–1000 by osmotic lysis and isopycnic centrifugation. The fractions were free of contamination by cytoplasm and fla-gella and contained outer membrane. Inner membrane contamination was minimal but could not be completely excluded. An abundant 45-kDa, heat-modifiable protein was shown to have significant homology withB. hyodysenteriaeVsp, and monoclonal antibodies were produced that reacted with fiveB. pilosicoli-specificmembrane protein epitopes. The first of these proteins to be characterized is a unique surface-exposed lipoprotein.

Abstract:

Based on continuum mechanics and finite element method, a lamination model was developed for shape memory polymer composites (SMPCs) reinforced by woven fabrics. SMPCs were modeled as a laminated structure with woven fabric reinforcements embedded in shape memory polymers (SMPs). Thermo-responsive SMPs were defined by a 3D phenomenological model based on the phase transition approach, while woven fabric reinforcements were characterized by an anisotropic hyperelastic model. The proposed model was validated by comparing numerical results of a SMPC in the shape memory cycle of bending deformation with experimental data. Applications of the lamination model were demonstrated on numerical simulations of a tube made of SMPC in three shape memory cycles with different deformation modes. The proposed model is simple and applicable in the simulations of various shape memory cycles related to SMPCs. It also provides a theoretical foundation for the analysis and design optimization of woven fabric reinforced SMPC structures.

Abstract:

AbstractThe incorporation of inorganic particles in a polymer matrix has been established as a method to adjust the mechanical performance of composite materials. We report on the influence of covalent integration of magnetic nanoparticles (MNP) on the actuation behavior and mechanical performance of hybrid nanocomposite (H-NC) based shape-memory polymer actuators (SMPA). The H-NC were synthesized by reacting two types of oligo(ω-pentadecalactone) (OPDL) based precursors with terminal hydroxy groups, a three arm OPDL (3AOPDL, Mn = 6000 g mol·1-1) and an OPDL (Mn =3300 g · mol-1) coated magnetite nanoparticle (Ø = 10 ± 2 nm), with a diisocyanate. These H-NC were compared to the homopolymer network regarding the actuation performance, contractual stress (σcontr) as well as thermal and mechanical properties. The melting range of the OPDL crystals (ΔTm,OPDL) was shifted in homo polymer networks from 36 °C – 76 °C to 41°C – 81 °C for H-NC with 9 wt% of MNP content. The actuators were explored by variation of separating temperature (Tsep), which splits the OPDL crystalline domain into actuating and geometry determining segments. Tsep was varied in the melting range of the nanocomposites and the actuation capability and contractual stress (σcontr) of the nanocomposite actuators could be adjusted. The reversible strain (εrev) was decreased from 11 ± 0.3% for homo polymer network to 3.2±0.3% for H-NC9 with 9 wt% of MNP indicating a restraining effect of the MNP on chain mobility. The results show that the performance of H-NCs in terms of thermal and elastic properties can be tailored by MNP content, however for higher reversible actuation, lower MNP contents are preferable.

Abstract:

ABSTRACT A novel outer membrane lipoprotein in Pseudomonas aeruginosa is encoded by the omlA gene, which was identified immediately upstream of the fur (ferric uptake regulator) gene. The omlA and fur genes were divergently transcribed and had overlapping promoter regions. The proximal fur P2 promoter and the omlA promoter shared a 5-bp DNA motif for their −10 promoter elements. The distalfur P1 promoter was located within the omlAcoding sequence, and the omlA and fur T1 mRNAs overlapped by 154 nucleotides. Optimal expression of bothfur and omlA required roughly 200 bp of DNA upstream of the promoter regions, suggesting the presence ofcis-acting transcriptional activation elements located within the omlA and fur genes, respectively. The levels of Fur and OmlA proteins had no influence onomlA or fur expression, excluding anytrans-acting cross-regulation between fur andomlA. Expression of omlA was constitutive regardless of growth phase, oxygen tension, iron concentration, pH, and temperature. OmlA contained a signal sequence typical of bacterial lipoproteins, with a cysteine as a putative cleavage and lipid attachment site. Inhibition of signal peptidase II by globomycin resulted in failure to process OmlA, thus giving strong evidence that OmlA is a lipoprotein. Cell fractionation followed by Western blot analysis indicated that all OmlA protein is localized in the outer membrane. Mature OmlA was an acidic (pI = 4.5) protein of 17.3 kDa and had close to 40% amino acid sequence identity to SmpA (small protein A) of Escherichia coli, Vibrio cholerae, and Haemophilus influenzae, a protein of unknown function. All P. aeruginosa strains tested as well as Pseudomonas fluorescens were found to produce OmlA. A mutant strain with impaired production of OmlA but no change in the expression of the overlapping fur gene was constructed. TheomlA mutant was hypersusceptible to anionic detergents such as sodium dodecyl sulfate and deoxycholate, and it showed increased susceptibility to various antibiotics, including nalidixic acid, rifampin, novobiocin, and chloramphenicol. A structural role of OmlA in maintaining the cell envelope integrity is proposed.

Abstract:

Abstract Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) has been postulated to function as a smooth muscle cell (SMC) mitogen and to play a role in the pathogenesis of bladder hypertrophy, estrogen-induced uterine growth, and restenosis after arterial angioplasty. IGF-binding protein-4 (IGFBP-4) inhibits IGF-I action in vitro and is the most abundant IGFBP in the rodent arterial wall. To explore the function of this binding protein in vivo, transgenic mouse lines were developed harboring fusion genes consisting of a rat IGFBP-4 complementary DNA cloned downstream of either a −724 bp fragment of the mouse smooth muscle α-actin 5′-flanking region (SMP2-BP-4) or− 1074 bp, 63 bp of 5′-untranslated region, and 2.5 kb of intron 1 of smooth muscle α-actin (SMP8-BP-4). SMP2-BP-4 mice expressed low levels of the exogenous IGFBP-4 messenger RNA (mRNA), which was not specifically targeted to SMC-rich tissue environments, and were therefore not analyzed further. Six SMP8-BP-4 transgenic lines derived from separate founders were characterized. Mating of hemizygous SMP8-BP-4 mice with controls produced about 50% transgenic offspring, with equal sex distribution. Expression of IGFBP-4 mRNA in nontransgenic littermates was maximal in liver and kidney. By contrast, transgenic IGFBP-4 mRNA expression, distinguished because of a smaller transcript size, was confined to SMC-containing tissues, with the following hierarchy: bladder > aorta > stomach = uterus. There was no transgene expression in skeletal muscle, brain, or cardiac myocytes. The abundance of IGFBP-4 measured by Western ligand blotting or by immunoblotting, was 8- to 10-fold higher in aorta and bladder of SMP8-BP-4 mice than in their nontransgenic littermates, with no change in plasma IGFBP-4 levels. Transgenic mice exhibited a significant reduction in wet weight of SMC-rich tissues, including bladder, intestine, aorta, uterus, and stomach, with no change in total body or carcass weight. In situ hybridization showed that transgene expression was targeted exclusively to the muscular layers of the arteries, veins, bladder, ureter, stomach, intestine, and uterus. Overexpression of IGFBP-4 was associated with SMC hypoplasia, a reciprocal phenotype to that of transgenic mice overexpressing IGF-I under control of the same promoter (SMP8-IGF-I). Double transgenic mice derived from mating SMP8-BP-4 with SMP8-IGF-I animals showed a modest decrease in wet weight at selected SMC tissues. Although we cannot exclude that the effects of IGFBP-4 may be IGF independent, these data suggest that IGFBP-4 is a functional antagonist of IGF-I action on SMC in vivo.

Abstract:

The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the microleakage at the composite-repair interface using different bonding systems. Composite resin specimens (Filtek Z250 - 3M-ESPE) were divided into five groups (n=20) according to the following bonding mechanism: C - control - etching with 35% phosphoric acid; SB1 - etching and application of one coat of Single Bond (3M-ESPE); SB2 - etching and application of two coats of Single Bond (3M-ESPE); SMP1 - etching, application of Scotchbond Multi-Purpose primer (3M-ESPE) followed by the adhesive and, SMP2 - etching, application of Scotchbond Multi-Purpose adhesive (3M-ESPE) without the primer. Thereafter, all groups received new resin application. Samples were thermocycled (500 cycles / 5ºC - 55ºC [±2]) and immersed for 4h in 2% methylene blue buffered dye solution (7.0 pH). Three examiners measured the extent of microleakage in a stereoscope microscope, using four representative scores. For all experimental groups, no significant difference in microleakage at the repair was identified by Kruskal-Wallis test (p > 0.05). Therefore, different types of bonding systems presented the same effect on the dye penetration along the repair interface.
