Adaptive Control for a Two-Axis Semi-Strapdown Stabilized Platform Based on Disturbance Transformation and LWOA-PID.

A two-axis semi-strapdown stabilized platform is a device designed to eliminate aircraft disturbances and ensure the stability of the sensor's orientation. A traditional two-axis semi-strapdown stabilization platform for aircraft can effectively control disturbance in pitch and yaw channel, but it cannot achieve ideal disturbance control in the roll channel. In order to solve this problem, an adaptive control method based on disturbance transformation and LWOA-PID is proposed.

Mito-LND and (E)-Akt inhibitor-IV: novel compounds inducing endoplasmic reticulum stress and ROS accumulation against hepatocellular carcinoma.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related mortality. Although multi-kinase inhibitors can prolong the overall survival of late-stage HCC patients, the emergence of drug resistance diminishes these benefits, ultimately resulting in treatment failure. Therefore, there is an urgent need for novel and effective drugs to impede the progression of liver cancer.

Empagliflozin rescues lifespan and liver senescence in naturally aged mice.

Empagliflozin is currently known to decrease blood glucose levels, delay renal failure, and reduce the risk of cardiovascular death and all-cause mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes with cardiovascular disease. However, the effects of empagliflozin on the lifespan and health of naturally aged organisms are unclear. This study was designed to investigate the impacts and potential mechanisms of empagliflozin on lifespan and liver senescence in naturally aged mice.

Modeling and Control of a Two-Axis Stabilized Gimbal Based on Kane Method.

A two-axis stabilizing gimbal is a device that ensures a sensor is working properly on a moving platform. When classical mechanics (Newton-Euler and Lagrange) is employed to model a two-axis stable gimbal, its limitations can complicate the modeling process. To address this issue, a method for establishing a dynamic model for a two-axis stabilizing platform based on the Kane method is proposed in this paper.

Peptide Inhibitor Targeting the Extraterminal Domain in BRD4 Potently Suppresses Breast Cancer Both and .

BRD4 is associated with a variety of human diseases, including breast cancer. The crucial roles of amino-terminal bromodomains (BDs) of BRD4 in binding with acetylated histones to regulate oncogene expression make them promising drug targets. However, adverse events impede the development of the BD inhibitors.

The SGLT2 inhibitor empagliflozin inhibits skeletal muscle fibrosis in naturally aging male mice through the AMPKα/MMP9/TGF-β1/Smad pathway.

With advancing age, the incidence of sarcopenia increases, eventually leading to a cascade of adverse events. However, there is currently a lack of effective pharmacological treatment for sarcopenia. Sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) empagliflozin demonstrates anti-fibrotic capabilities in various organs.

Single-cell transcriptome and metagenome profiling reveals the genetic basis of rumen functions and convergent developmental patterns in ruminants.

The rumen undergoes developmental changes during maturation. To characterize this understudied dynamic process, we profiled single-cell transcriptomes of about 308,000 cells from the rumen tissues of sheep and goats at 17 time points. We built comprehensive transcriptome and metagenome atlases from early embryonic to rumination stages, and recapitulated histomorphometric and transcriptional features of the rumen, revealing key transitional signatures associated with the development of ruminal cells, microbiota, and core transcriptional regulatory networks.

Empagliflozin improves kidney senescence induced by D-galactose by reducing sirt1-mediated oxidative stress.

Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have received widespread attention because of their significant protective effects on the kidney. Previous studies have shown that Sirt1, as which is an antiaging protein, is closely related to the maintenance of redox homeostasis. The goal of this study was to determine whether empagliflozin could ameliorate D-galactose-induced renal senescence in mice, and examine the possible mechanisms of Sirt1.

A specific JMJD6 inhibitor potently suppresses multiple types of cancers both in vitro and in vivo.

Jumonji C-domain-containing protein 6 (JMJD6), an iron (Fe) and α-ketoglutarate (α-KG)-dependent oxygenase, is expressed at high levels, correlated with poor prognosis, and considered as a therapeutic target in multiple cancer types. However, specific JMJD6 inhibitors that are potent in suppressing tumorigenesis have not been reported so far. We herein report that iJMJD6, a specific small-molecule inhibitor of JMJD6 with favorable physiochemical properties, inhibits the enzymatic activity of JMJD6 protein both in vitro and in cultured cells.

Zn and Ag Doping on Hydroxyapatite: Influence on the Adhesion Strength of High-Molecular Polymer Polycaprolactone.

In this study, density functional theory was employed to calculate the adsorption of polycaprolactone (PCL) by pure hydroxyapatite (HA), Zn-doped HA, and Ag-doped HA, and the interaction of PCL on the surface of HA (001) was simulated. The results show that there was significant electron transfer between the carbonyl O in PCL and the Zn, Ag, and Ca in HA, forming coordinate bonds. The binding energies of Ag-doped HA/PCL and Zn-doped HA/PCL were much higher than those of HA/PCL.

Sorption Studies of Tetracycline Antibiotics on Hydroxyapatite (001) Surface-A First-Principles Insight.

Owing to the limitations of traditional systemic drug delivery in the treatment of bone diseases with side effects on normal cells, the selection of materials with high affinities for bones, as targeting ligands to modify drug carriers, has become an important research topic. Tetracyclines (TCs) have an adsorption effect on hydroxyapatite (HAp). Thus, they can be used as bone-targeting ligands and combined with drug carriers.

microRNA-10b promotes the apoptosis of bovine ovarian granulosa cells by targeting plasminogen activator inhibitor-1.

Granulosa cells (GCs) are essential somatic cells in the ovaries, and apoptosis of GCs causes follicular atresia. microRNA-10b (miR-10b) is pivotal for cell apoptosis. However, currently, little is known about the role of miR-10b in bovine ovarian GCs (BGCs).

Bias Evaluation of the Accuracy of Two Extraoral Scanners and an Intraoral Scanner Based on ADA Standards.

The spread and application of computer-aided design/computer-aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) technology have contributed to the rapid development of digitalization in dentistry. The accuracy of scan results is closely related to the devising subsequent treatment plans and outcomes. Professional standards for evaluating scanners are specified in the American National Standard/American Dental Association Standard 132 (ANSI/ADA No.

In Silico Discovery of JMJD6 Inhibitors for Cancer Treatment.

The 2-oxoglutarate (2OG)-dependent oxygenase JMJD6 is emerging as a potential anticancer target, but its inhibitors have not been reported so far. In this study, we reported an in silico protocol to discover JMJD6 inhibitors targeting the druggable 2OG-binding site. Following this protocol, one compound, which we named as WL12, was found to be able to inhibit JMJD6 enzymatic activity and JMJD6-dependent cell proliferation.

Evaluation of Formalin Fixation for Tissue Biopsies Using Shear Wave Laser Speckle Imaging System.

Chemical fixation is the slowest and often the most uncontrolled step in the multi-step process of preparing tissue for histopathology. In order to reduce the time from taking a core needle biopsy to making a diagnosis, a new approach is proposed that optically monitors the common formalin fixation process. A low-cost and highly-sensitive laser speckle imaging technique is developed to measure shear wave velocity in a biospecimen as small as 0.
