Intravoxel incoherent motion magnetic resonance imaging reconstruction from highly under-sampled diffusion-weighted PROPELLER acquisition data via physics-informed residual feedback unrolled network.

. The acquisition of diffusion-weighted images for intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) imaging is time consuming. This work aims to accelerate the scan through a highly under-sampling diffusion-weighted turbo spin echo PROPELLER (DW-TSE-PROPELLER) scheme and to develop a reconstruction method for accurate IVIM parameter mapping from the under-sampled data.

Analysis of Energy Loss Characteristics of Vertical Axial Flow Pump Based on Entropy Production Method under Partial Conditions.

The energy loss of the vertical axial flow pump device increases due to the unstable internal flow, which reduces the efficiency of the pump device and increases its energy consumption of the pump device. The research results of the flow loss characteristics of the total internal conduit are still unclear. Therefore, to show the internal energy loss mechanism of the axial flow pump, this paper used the entropy production method to calculate the energy loss of the total conduit of the pump device to clarify the internal energy loss mechanism of the pump device.

Nuclear Receptor NR1D1 Regulates Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development by Targeting the Mitochondrial Tricarboxylic Acid Cycle Enzyme Aconitase-2.

Background: Metabolic disorder increases the risk of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA). NRs (nuclear receptors) have been increasingly recognized as important regulators of cell metabolism. However, the role of NRs in AAA development remains largely unknown.

Oxyresveratrol extracted from Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. inhibits tyrosinase and age pigments in vitro and in vivo.

We extracted and purified oxyresveratrol (OXY) from Artocarpus heterophyllus Lam. and identified its structure. The kinetics and mechanisms of OXY-induced mushroom tyrosinase inhibition were studied using fluorescence spectroscopy, copper ion chelation, and circular dichroism (CD).

In Situ Expansion, Differentiation, and Electromechanical Coupling of Human Cardiac Muscle in a 3D Bioprinted, Chambered Organoid.

Rationale: One goal of cardiac tissue engineering is the generation of a living, human pump in vitro that could replace animal models and eventually serve as an in vivo therapeutic. Models that replicate the geometrically complex structure of the heart, harboring chambers and large vessels with soft biomaterials, can be achieved using 3-dimensional bioprinting. Yet, inclusion of contiguous, living muscle to support pump function has not been achieved.

Physakengoses K-Q, seven new sucrose esters from Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii.

Seven sucrose esters, physakengoses K-Q (1-7) were isolated from the aerial parts of Physalis alkekengi var. franchetii. Their structures were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses and chemical methods.

Syntheses, crystal structures and physical properties of three new chalcogenides: NaGaGe3Se8, K3Ga3Ge7S20, and K3Ga3Ge7Se20.

Three new chalcogenides, namely NaGaGe3Se8, K3Ga3Ge7S20, and K3Ga3Ge7Se20, of an A-Ga-Ge-Q (A = Na, K; Q = S, Se) system were obtained for the first time. They crystallize into two different new structures, albeit both in the monoclinic space group P21/c. NaGaGe3Se8 has a layered structure consisting of two dimensional [M4Se8](-) layers separated by Na(+) cations, while the structures of K3Ga3Ge7Q20 (Q = S, Se) are constructed by incompletely isolated quasi-2D [M10Q21](5-) layers, leading to large channels loosely occupied by K(+) cations.
