Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is the most malignant subtype of breast cancer. Some microRNAs (miRNAs) were abnormally expressed in TNBC, and they are closely related to the occurrence and progression of TNBC. Here, we found that miR-506 was significantly downregulated in TNBC and relatively lower miR-506 expression predicted a poorer prognosis.

In typical cities of East China, more than 900 non-road vehicles were tested for exhaust smoke. Based on the investigation of the properties of these non-road vehicles, exhaust smoke intensities for different kinds of non-road vehicles are recommended. We also quantitatively study the differences in smoke intensity among vehicle age, vehicle power, test conditions, and fuels.

For the 2022 Asian Games, a series of major events were held in Hangzhou City in 2016 at the international summit, where research on VOC emission inventories, especially on industrial VOCs, has attracted the attention of local residents and management departments. By taking a bottom-up approach, 3518 enterprises in more than 30 industries in Hangzhou were investigated and an industrial VOCs emission inventory for Hangzhou was established. Based on the data on regional emissions, emissions intensity, and spatial distribution, the industrial VOCs emissions in Hangzhou were systematically analyzed.

Based on site investigation of non-road vehicles in Shanghai and Hangzhou located in east China, non-road vehicle emission inventory in 2014 was established in these cities as well as its emission inventory technology. Characteristics of non-road vehicle were also analyzed, including classification, type of fuel, power and emission standard. The results showed that diesel consumed by non-road vehicles was 6.

The status of treatment equipment, the emission characteristics, and the ozone formation potential (OFP) of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) for 11 typical enterprises, which were categorized into the 8 major VOC emission industries identified by the emission inventory of a typical city in the Yangtze River Delta, are discussed in this paper. There was a large difference in the removal efficiency of non-methane hydrocarbon (NMHC) between different treatment techniques, and even an increase in concentration occurred after some of the treatments. The current treatment equipment for VOCs needs further optimization.

Based on the measured daily flow prototype sequence of five hydrologic stations in the three outfalls of Chingjiang River from 1990 to 2014, its hydrological characteristics and its changing trend was analyzed by using the Mann-Kendall statistical test and the cumulative anomaly method, while the effect of the operation of the Three Gorges on the variation of the 33 indexes of ecological hydrology was also analyzed by the index system of ecological hydrology and range of variability approach. The results showed an obvious decreasing trend in annual mean discharge with the confidence degree of 95% with a decrease rate of 19% during 1990-2014. The jump point appeared in 2003, with the annual mean discharge being 1981.

Microgravity decreases the differentiation of osteoblast. However, as this process is multistage and complex, the mechanism by which microgravity inhibits osteoblast differentiation is still unclear. We have previously found that 24 h acute treatment of simulated microgravity (SM) with a random positioning machine (RPM) significantly inhibited the differentiation of preosteoblasts and have explored whether osteoblasts show different response to microgravity condition at other stages, such as the mineralizing-stage.

The pharmacokinetic profiles of sulfamonomethoxine (SMM) were investigated in flatfish tongue soles in the present study. After a single injection of SMM (40 mg/kg BW) to caudal vein of tongue sole at 20 °C, plasma drug concentration versus time data were best fitted to a three-compartment model, characterized with 0.2, 5.

By using analytic hierarchy process and entropy method, the evaluation index system and the response relationship model of comprehensive development level of urbanization and comprehensive development and utilization potential of water resources in Dongting Lake District were constructed, with the key affecting factors, their change characteristics, and response characteristics from 2001 to 2010 analyzed. During the study period, the Dongting Lake District was undergoing a rapid development of urbanization, and at a scale expansion stage. The economic and social development level was lagged behind the population and area increase, and the quality and efficiency of urbanization were still needed to be improved.

Based on the field investigation and measurement, and by using the monetary method, this paper estimated the wetland ecosystem service value of Dongting Lake before and after the impoundment of Three Gorges Reservoir (in 1996 and 2010, respectively). After the impoundment, the total ecosystem service value increased from 156.69x10(8) yuan in 1996 to 177.

The superconducting magnet generates a field and field gradient product that can levitate diamagnetic materials. In this study a specially designed superconducting magnet with a large gradient high magnetic field (LG-HMF), which can provide three apparent gravity levels (μ-g, 1-g, and 2-g), was used to simulate a space-like gravity environment. The effects of LG-HMF on the ultrastructure and function of osteoblast-like cells (MG-63 and MC3T3-E1) and the underlying mechanism were investigated by transmission electromicroscopy (TEM), MTT, and cell western (ICW) assays.

Aim: To investigate the roles of autocrine soluble FN of MG-63 cells in cell shape maintaining.

Methods: Human osteosarcoma MG-63 cells (1 × 10(4); cells/cm(2);) were routinely cultured in MEM medium+10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) for 24 h and then the medium was replaced by fresh medium(the group without autocrine soluble FN), conditional medium of collected after 24 h of MG-63 cells (the group containing autocrine soluble FN ) and fresh medium with 20 microg/mL FN( the group with plasma FN) after 24 h, and the cell morphology was observed using phase contrast microscope; The concentrations of soluble FN in fresh and conditional medium were detected; Microfilament and insoluble FN changes of MG-63 cells were investigated.

Results: The concentration of soluble FN in conditional medium is much higher than that in the fresh medium (P<0.

Contrast to planktonic cells, biofilms are complex communities of microorganisms that develop on biotic or abiotic surfaces. Most of bacteria can form biofilms under proper conditions. Once biofilm form, the inner bacteria cells often exhibit reduced antibiotic susceptibility than their free-floating counterparts, so conventional methods of killing bacteria, such as antibiotics and disinfections are often ineffective with them.

The gene (alyVI) encoding an alginate lyase of marine bacterium Vibrio sp. QY101, which was isolated from a decaying thallus of Laminaria, was cloned using a strategy of combined degenerate PCR and long range-inverse PCR (LR-IPCR), then sequenced and expressed in Escherichia coli. Gene alyVI was composed of a 1014 bp open reading frame (ORF) encoding 338 amino acid residues.

Extracellular alginate lyase secreted by Vibrio sp. QY101, which was isolated from brown algae, was purified to homogeneity by a combination of ammonium sulfate precipitation, DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow anion-exchange chromatography and Superdex 75 gel filtration chromatography. Its molecular mass was 39 kD as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
