High-Precision Printing of Flexible MXene Patterns for Dynamically Tunable Electromagnetic Interference Shielding Performance.

Smart electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding materials are of great significance in coping with the dynamic performance demands of cutting-edge electronic devices. However, smart EMI shielding materials are still in their infancy and face a variety of challenges (e.g.

Phenethyl isothiocyanate inhibits metastasis potential of non-small cell lung cancer cells through FTO mediated TLE1 mA modification.

N6-methyladenosine (mA) modification is a prevalent RNA epigenetic modification, which plays a crucial role in tumor progression including metastasis. Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are natural compounds and inhibit the tumorigenesis of various cancers. Our previous studies show that ITCs inhibit the proliferation and metastasis of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cells, and have synergistic effects with chemotherapy drugs.

Liver and gall bladder channel parallels in the Hippocratic Corpus and Huang Di Nei Jing with theoretical considerations.

Chinese history contains an abundance of records discussing contact with the outside world. In the ever elusive search for the origin of the meridian theory, an extended investigation into the Hippocratic Corpus reveals parallels with the () medical text of the Chinese tradition that provide an alternative perspective into the origins of meridian channels theory. Though this topic has been discussed in the past, this paper provides new and developed insight into theories associated with the liver and gallbladder channel systems of each tradition.

[Discussion on the body conception of the medical scholars at the early eras based on the description of meridians in bamboo slip and silk medical books].

In the paper, the basic situation and description of meridians are introduced on () and () unearthed from Mawangdui, () from Zhangjiashan, the lacquer figure from Shuangbaoshan, the lacquer figure as well as () unearthed from Laoguanshan. By analyzing the differences of the records of the aforementioned unearthed literature and the meridians described on the excavated lacquer figures in comparison with the "twelve meridians" in ( '), it is viewed that the development of meridian system, from "eleven meridians" to "twelve meridians", from "independent flowing line" to the circular motion channel as "endless cycling", is influenced by the symbolic model of image numerology of "6 for the Heaven and 5 for the Earth" and the law of the reciprocal change of and . The description of meridians by the medical scholars at the early eras are based on various kinds of practices, such as clinical diagnosis and treatment, and .

Benzyl isothiocyanate induces protective autophagy in human lung cancer cells through an endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated mechanism.

Isothiocyanates, such as allyl isothiocya¬nate (AITC), benzyl isothiocyanate (BITC), phenethyl isothio¬cyanate (PEITC) and sulforaphane (SFN), are natural compounds abundant in cruciferous vegetables, which have substantial chemopreventive activities against various human malignancies. However, the mechanisms underlying the inhibition of tumor cell growth by isothiocyanates are not fully understood. Since autophagy has dual functions in cancer, in the present study we investigated the effects of BITC on autophagy induction in human lung cancer cells in vitro and in vivo.

[A novel immunization strategy to induce strong humoral responses against HIV-1 using combined DNA, recombinant vaccinia virus and protein vaccines].

To optimize the immunization strategy against HIV-1, a DNA vaccine was combined with a recombinant vaccinia virus (rTV) vaccine and a protein vaccine. Immune responses against HIV-1 were detected in 30 female guinea pigs divided into six groups. Three groups of guinea pigs were primed with HIV-1 DNA vaccine three times, boosted with rTV at week 14, and then boosted with gp140 protein at intervals of 4, 8 or 12 weeks.

[A Study on the quotations in the Wu xing da yi (The Gist of Five Phases) cited from Nei jing (Inner Canon)].

In the Wu xing da yi (The Gist of Five Phases), written by Xiao Ji of the Sui Dynasty, there were 9 quotations cited from Huang di nei jing (Inner Canon of Huangdi). By comparison with current version of Huang di nei jing, most of the descriptions are similar, yet still with some differences, such as yin-yang nature of the five zang visceras, the liver being the root of "pi ji", the spleen being the root of "cang lin" etc. Wu xing da yi epitomizes the books about yin-yang and five phases before the Sui Dynasty, while Xiao Ji's quotations from Huang di nei jing interpreted from the views of yin-yang and five phases, are different from the annotations of later ages.

Bovine HEXIM1 inhibits bovine immunodeficiency virus replication through regulating BTat-mediated transactivation.

The bovine immunodeficiency virus (BIV) transactivator (BTat) recruits the bovine cyclin T1 (B-cyclin T1) to the LTR to facilitate the transcription of BIV. Here, we demonstrate that bovine hexamethylene bisacetamide (HMBA)-induced protein 1 (BHEXIM1) inhibits BTat-mediated BIV LTR transcription. The results of in vivo and in vitro assays show direct binding of BHEXIM1 to the B-cyclin T1.

[Molecular epidemiology of viral diarrhea in Chengdu infants and young children].

Objective: To investigated the molecular epidemiologic features of viral diarrhea in Chengdu infants and young children, and to establish baseline patterns of etiology, provides the scientific basis for the vaccine development and the epidemic situation control.

Methods: From March, 2006 to December, 2008, a total of 376 infants and young children from Chengdu area hospitalized for diarrhea in Chengdu Children's Hospital were enrolled in this study. The stool specimen collected from each patient was tested for rotavirus (RV), Calicivirus (CV), astrovirus (AstV) and adenovirus (Adv) by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) examination.

[Li Shizhen's cognition on human life].

Through the comparison between Taoists and physicians of ancient time in our country, we make inquiry into Li Shizhen's cognition on human life and consider that Li Shizhen explicitly put forward, prior to the contemporary physicians, the original creative ideas for the first time,on human being including "the brain is the residence of original spirit", "channel is the tunnel of inner image", "vital gate is located between the two kidneys", "vital gate is the substance, triple burner, the function". In addition to these ideas, Li Shizhen also raised an idea of "spleen is the mother of vital energy", which, even though it was not created for the first time, strengthened and developed the ideas of the predecessors.
