[Emission Characterstics of VOCs and -alkanes from Diesel Forklifts].

Non-road diesel vehicle exhaust is an important emission source that affects air quality in China, yet knowledge regarding its chemical composition and potential influence factors remains limited. Six typical forklifts were selected to study the effect of diesel particulate filters (DPF) on the emission characteristics of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and -alkanes using online monitoring of gaseous components combined with offline analysis. The results showed that oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs), olefins, alkanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, and halogenated hydrocarbons accounted for 26%-37%, 16%-36%, 19%-22%, 13%-21%, and 4%-7% of the measured VOCs in forklift exhaust, respectively.

[Correlation of Blimp1 with ATF4/CHOP Signaling Pathway in Multiple Myeloma U266 Cells].

Objective: To investigate whether Blimp1 plays an anti-apoptosis role in myeloma by interfering with ATF4/CHOP cell apoptosis pathway induced by endoplasmic reticulum stress, and to explore the anti-myeloma mechanism of aspirin.

Methods: The bone marrow fluid of 40 newly diagnosed multiple myeloma patients without treatment and 30 control people with relatively normal bone marrow was collected. Flow cytometry was used to separated the normal and abnormal plasma cells, LV-Blimp1-RNAi (40051-2) recombinant lentivirus down-regulates the expression of Blimp-1 in U266 cell line and detected the changes of the expression of ATF4 and CHOP gene.

The Retrotransposition of L1 is Involved in the Reconsolidation of Contextual Fear Memory in Mice.

Background: The long interspersed element-1 (L1) participates in memory formation, and DNA methylation patterns of L1 may suggest resilience or vulnerability factors for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), of which the principal manifestation is a pathological exacerbation of fear memory. However, the unique roles of L1 in the reconsolidation of fear memory remain poorly understood.

Objective: The study aimed to investigate the role of L1 in the reconsolidation of context-dependent fear memory.

Radical-Mediated Strategies for the Functionalization of Alkenes with Diazo Compounds.

One of the most common reactions of diazo compounds with alkenes is cyclopropanation, which occurs through metal carbene or free carbene intermediates. Alternative functionalization of alkenes with diazo compounds is limited, and a methodology for the addition of the elements of Z-CHR (with Z = H or heteroatom, and CHR originates from N═CR) across a carbon-carbon double bond has not been reported. Here we report a novel reaction of diazo compounds utilizing a radical-mediated addition strategy to achieve difunctionalization of diverse alkenes.

[Emission Characteristics of Light-Duty Gasoline Vehicle Exhaust Based on Acceleration Simulation Mode].

In this study, 127 light-duty gasoline cars and 10 light-duty gasoline trucks with different emission standards were selected to explore the influences of different conditions and vehicle parameters on the emission characteristics of carbon dioxide (CO), carbon monoxide (CO), nitrogen oxides (NO), hydrocarbons (HC), and methane (CH) using a portable emission measurement system based on a chassis dynamometer under acceleration simulation mode. The results showed that the gaseous pollutants of light-duty gasoline vehicles displayed a relatively lower emission rate under the idle condition, which accounted for only 22.9% and 25.

[Expression of Blimp1、ATF4 and CHOP in Multiple Myeloma Cells and Effect of Aspirin on Their Expression].

Objective: To explore the expression of Blimp1, ATF4 and CHOP in bone marrow mononuclear cells from patients with multiple myeloma as well as the effect of aspirin on their expression.

Methods: Sixty untreated patients with multiple myeloma and 30 patients with relatively normal bone marrow were selected. Mononuclear cells from the bone marrow fluid were separated using Ficoll separation solution.

[Application of quality by design in granulation process for ginkgo leaf tablet (Ⅳ)： influence and control of raw materials' quality variation].

Raw materials' quality variation could affect the quality consistency of product and the clinical efficacy. In this paper, the high shear wet granulation (HSWG) process of the ginkgo leaf tablet was taken as the research object. Ginkgo biloba extracts and excipients microcrystalline cellulose collected from various sources and batches were used to simulate raw materials' quality variation.

[Expression of Blimp-1 mRNA in Bone Marrow Mononuclear Cells in Multiple Myeloma Patients and Its Clinical Significance].

Objective: To investigate the expression level of B lymphocyte-induced maturation protein-1(Blimp-1) mRNA in bone marrow mononuclear cells(BMMNC) of multiple myeloma(MM) patients and its clinical significance.

Methods: Fluorescent quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR) was used to measure Blimp-1 mRNA expression in BMMNC and flow cytometry(FCM) was performed to detect the number of malignant plasma cells in bone marrow of MM group (39 newly-diagnosed and untreated patients) and IDA group (5 IDA patients). The clinical data of all the patients' were collected, and the 39 patients in MM group were divided into 2 subgroups: in BD group 20 cases were treated with bortezomib-based regimen and in VOD group 19 patients were treated with VAD regimen.

TPX2 siRNA regulates growth and invasion of esophageal cancer cells.

Purpose: Observe how specific small RNA interference (siRNA) aimed at TPX2 gene suppresses TPX2 gene expression in esophageal cancer EC9706 cells and the effect on esophageal cancer cell growth and invasion ability.

Methods: Transfect TPX2 siRNA into EC9706 cells via lipofectamin 2000. The experiments were divided into three groups, a negative control, a blank control and an siRNA interference group (24h, 48h, 72h, 96h).

[Characterization of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons contaminations in surface sediments from Zhalong wetland, China].

Soxhlet extraction, silica gel alumina column for separation and clean up and gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS) for qualitative and quantitative analysis were used for study environmental behavior of 15 priority PAHs of twelve surface sediment samples collected from Zhalong wetland, Heilongjiang Province. The objectives of this study were to identify the PAHs contamination level, composition pattern, pollution sources and pathways, and to assess the ecological risk of PAHs to aquatic life in Zhalong wetland. The total concentrations of 15 priority PAHs ranged form 31.
