Atomic force microscopy of electrospun organic-inorganic lipid nanofibers.

Applied physics letters

Zhang J, Cohn C, Qiu W, Zha Z, Dai Z, Wu X.
PMID: 21990942
Appl Phys Lett. 2011 Sep 05;99(10):103702-1037023. doi: 10.1063/1.3635783. Epub 2011 Sep 08.

An organic-inorganic hybridization strategy has been proposed to synthesize polymerizable lipid-based materials for the creation of highly stable lipid-mimetic nanostructures. We employ atomic force microscopy (AFM) to analyze the surface morphology and mechanical property of electrospun cholesteryl-succinyl silane (CSS)...

Dispersion of graphene in water and its incorporation into waterborne resin have been rarely researched and hardly achieved owing to its hydrophobicity. Furthermore, it has largely been reported that graphene with impermeability contributed to the improved anticorrosion property. Here,...

MicroRNA-625 inhibits the proliferation and increases the chemosensitivity of glioma by directly targeting AKT2.

American journal of cancer research

Zhang J, Zhang J, Zhang J, Qiu W, Xu S, Yu Q, Liu C, Wang Y, Lu A, Zhang J, Lu X.
PMID: 28979807
Am J Cancer Res. 2017 Sep 01;7(9):1835-1849. eCollection 2017.

Glioma is a malignant tumor for which new therapies are needed. Growing evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) have a major effect on glioma development. Here, we aimed to characterize a novel anti-cancer miRNA, miR-625, by investigating its expression,...

Extract from a mutant Rhodobacter sphaeroides as an enriched carotenoid source.

Food & nutrition research

Wang CC, Ding S, Chiu KH, Liu WS, Lin TJ, Wen ZH.
PMID: 27037001
Food Nutr Res. 2016 Mar 31;60:29580. doi: 10.3402/fnr.v60.29580. eCollection 2016.

BACKGROUND: The extract Lycogen™ from the phototrophic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides (WL-APD911) has attracted significant attention because of its promising potential as a bioactive mixture, attributed in part to its anti-inflammatory properties and anti-oxidative activity.OBJECTIVE: This study aims to investigate...

Effects of UVB Radiation on competition between the bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa and the Chlorophyceae Chlamydomonas microsphaera(1).

Journal of phycology

Zhang Y, Jiang HB, Qiu BS.
PMID: 27008518
J Phycol. 2013 Apr;49(2):318-28. doi: 10.1111/jpy.12038. Epub 2013 Feb 22.

The growth, photosynthetic characteristics, and competitive ability of three algal strains were investigated under different doses of ultraviolet-B (UVB) radiation (0, 0.285, and 0.372 W · m(-2) ). The organisms were the toxic bloom-forming cyanobacterium Microcystis aeruginosa FACHB 912,...

Int J Clin Exp Med. 2015 Jan 15;8(1):1401-5. eCollection 2015.

Interleukin-16 (IL-16) polymorphisms have been associated with various disease states, and its activity is dysregulated in synovial fibroblasts of individuals with rheumatoid arthritis. Here, the association between genetic polymorphisms in the gene encoding IL-16 and susceptibility to primary knee...

The exponential function transforms the Abbreviated Injury Scale, which both improves accuracy and simplifies scoring.

PURPOSE: We present here the exponential function which transforms the Abbreviated Injury Scale (AIS). It is called the Exponential Injury Severity Score (EISS), and significantly outperforms the venerable but dated New Injury Severity Score (NISS) and Injury Severity Score...

A photodegradable hexaaza-pentacene molecule for selective dispersion of large-diameter semiconducting carbon nanotubes.

Chemical communications (Cambridge, England)

Harvesting high-purity semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNTs) with removable dispersants remains a challenge. In this work, we demonstrate that small heteroacene derivatives may serve as promising selective dispersants for sorting s-SWCNTs. A rich N "doped" and thiophene-substituted hexaazapentacene molecule,...
