Degradation of Mechanical Properties of Graphene Oxide Concrete under Sulfate Attack and Freeze-Thaw Cycle Environment.

In this paper, firstly, the effects of graphene oxide on the mechanical properties of concrete were investigated. Secondly, the degradation and mechanism of the mechanical properties of graphene oxide concrete (GOC) under sulfate attack and a freeze-thaw environment were investigated. In addition, the dynamic modulus of elasticity (MOE) and uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of the GOC were measured under different environmental conditions.

Pannexin-1 is involved in neuronal apoptosis and degeneration in experimental intracerebral hemorrhage in rats.

Pannexins serve an important role in the regulation of extracellular neuronal regenerative currents and cellular signal transduction of glial cells; however, the effects of pannexins in various cerebrovascular diseases have not been reported. The present study focused on the expression and influence of pannexins in a rat model of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and confirmed that pannexins (including Pannexin‑1, Pannexin‑2 and Pannexin‑3) are expressed in rat brain tissues. However, only the expression of Pannexin‑1 was significantly increased and peaked 48 h post‑ICH.
