In fact, the greatest difficulties translator encounter in the process is not the language, but the culture. Translation itself is a product of exchanges between different cultures. Translation is passing through a cross-cultural.

The OMVs of Pseudomonas aeruginosa were extracted by pressure-induced ammonium sulfate precipitation,and their particle size, distribution, zeta potential, protein content and stability were determined. Several types of liposomes were prepared by thin film dispersion method, and the OMVs were decorated by vortexing, sonication and extrusion, respectively. The interaction between liposome and OMV was studied with fluorescence resonance energy transfer(FRET) method. The results showed that the OMVs were spherical in shape and negatively charged. The vortexing method exerted little effect on the particle size and distribution of the decorated OMVs. The sonication process reduced the particle size and distribution of OMVs. FRET experiment indicated that the OMVs were decorated through membrane fusion. The above-mentioned results indicated that liposomes could successfully decorate OMVs, and decorated OMVs certainly widened their applications.展开更多

Physicochemical parameters, in vitro antimicrobial, time-kill study, cellular uptake, biofilm formation inhibition and in vivo antibacterial efficacy against Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus(MRSA) were investigated. Minimum inhibitory concentrations(MICs) and colony-forming units(CFUs) in the time-kill study for Tat-WGA-modified liposomal clarithromycin(CLA-Tat WGALip) were lower than those of free and other modified liposomal CLA. Flow cytometry analysis disclosed that Tat WGALip delivered more coumarin 6 into bacteria. Furthermore, Tat-WGA-modified liposomal CLA efficiently inhibited the formation of MRSA biofiom. CFU of MRSA in the abscess of mice treated with CLA-Tat WGALip was significantly lower than that of any others(P〈0.01). Collectively, liposomal delivery system modified by Tat and WGA could be a promising anti-resistant infection strategy.展开更多

Firstly, Tat-TOS was synthesized by solid-phase synthesis, and its structure was confirmed. The ability of free and liposomal Tat-TOS to induce apoptosis in vitro was evaluated by flow cytometry. Biodistribution of Tat-TOS-loaded liposomes was investigated by a molecular imaging system. Multi-component-loaded liposomes modified with Tat-TOS containing FIPI and DOX was prepared by thin film dispersion method in combination with p H gradient method and post-insertion method. Physicochemical properties were determined, and the in vitro uptake ability of the formulations was evaluated. The results showed that the prepared liposomes were characterized by a uniform particle size distribution and small particle size. The encapsulation efficiency of FIPI and DOX exceeded 85%. Both free and liposomal Tat-TOS significantly improved the activity of inducing apoptosis of tumor cells. The liposomes modified with Tat-TOS were apparently accumulated in normal lung tissue and tumor metastasized lung. Multi-component-loaded liposomes exhibited the strongest cell uptake capacity, suggesting a stronger anti-metastatic effect and anti-tumor activity in vivo.展开更多

In our study, a combinatory liposomal delivery system containing doxorubicin (Dox) and harmine (HM) was constructed by thin film dispersing method together with pH gradient method. A simple, precise and accurate spectrophotometric method for the determination of Dox and HM in liposomal formulation was established and validated. A drug HSPC ratio of 1: 20, loading time of 30 min and loading temperature of 50 ~C were the optimal conditions for the preparation of drug loaded liposomes, which exhibited excellent physicochemical properties such as average particle size of-100 nm, low polydispersity index below 0.2 and high entrapment efficiency above 93%. Sustained release of drug from liposomes at pH 7.4 showed good biological safety. The synergetic cytotoxic effect for these two drugs was evaluated in MCF-7 ceils. The in vitro antitumor studies demonstrated the superior anti-proliferation activity of the liposomal Dox and HM with a combination index of 0.81, which indicated great synergistic effect and increased anti-proliferation efficiency. The experimental data suggested that combinational liposome therapy could be an effective way to develop efficient treatment of cancers.展开更多

A series of alkyl rhamnosides with different carbon chain lengths were obtained by a simple and effective synthesis method. The structure was characterized by ~1H NMR spectrum, and their critical micelle concentration(CMC) was measured by fluorescence probe method. The hydrophilic and lipophilic balance(HLB) value was obtained by calculation. The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus was determined by the broth double dilution method. The effect of biofilm inhibition and biofilm disruption was assayed by crystal violet method. The results showed that with the increase of carbon chain length, the CMC and HLB of alkyl rhamnosides displayed a linear downward trend, indicating that the lipophilicity and surface activity of the alkyl rhamnoside were increased. At the same time, the antibacterial activity in vitro produced the maximum, ie, 12-hydroxydecanoyl rhamnoside had the strongest antibacterial activity in vitro. Similarly, this material also exhibited the strongest antibacterial biofilm activity in vitro. The results of this study demonstrated that the most potent active material was obtained through the structure-activity relationship and it could be applied antibacterial biofilms in clinical practice.展开更多

The geometric stability, band inversion, nontrivial edge states, and electric polarity are investigated to predict the large-gap quantum spin Hall insulator and Rashba-Dresselhaus effects. The MD results reveal that the g-T1A monolayers remain stable even at room temperature. The g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayers become TIs under the influence of strong spin-orbit couplings with large bulk bandgaps of 131 and 268 meV, respectively. A single band inversion is observed in each g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayer, indicating a nontrivial topological nature. Furthermore, the topological edge states are described by introducing a sufficiently wide zigzag-nanoribbon. A Dirac point in the middle of the bulk gap connects the valence- and conduction-band edges. The Fermi velocity near the Dirac point with a linear band dispersion is -0.51 × 106 m/s, which is comparable to that of many other 2D nanomaterials. More importantly, owing to the broken inversion symmetry normal to the plane of the g-T1A films, a promising Rashba-Dresselhaus effect with the parameter up to 0.85 eV-A is observed in the g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayers. Our findings regarding 2D topological g-T1A monolayers with room-temperature bandgaps, intriguing topological edge states, and a promising Rashba-Dresselhaus effect are of fundamental value and suggest potential applications in nanoelectronic devices.展开更多

Gly-Sar-conjugated TPGS was successfully synthesized and characterized, and coumarin 6-loaded Gly-Sar modified calcium carbonate nanoparticles were then prepared and characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 193 nm in diameter, cracked surface morphology under a scanning electron microscope, and high drug loading efficiency(60.5±5.9)%. Moreover, the Gly-Sar-modified calcium carbonate nanoparticles exhibited better drug loading stability during the process of their transcellular transport, and evidently enhanced intestinal absorption of poorly water-soluble agents. Therefore, the designed intestine Pep T1-targeted calcium carbonate nanoparticles might have a promising potential for oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs.展开更多

Based on the specific transporters expressed on the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelium, novel polymer micelles targeting to the organic cation transporter 2(OCTN2) were constructed by combining carnitine conjugated poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-poly(D,L-lactide)(Car-PEOz-PLA) with monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(D,L-lactide)(mP EG-PLA). The structure of the synthesized Car-PEOz-PLA was confirmed by -1H NMR, TLC and ammonium reineckate precipitation reaction, and the number-average molecular weight determined by GPC was 7260 g/mol with a low PDI of 1.44. Coumarin 6-loaded carnitine modified polymeric micelles prepared by film hydration method were characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 31 nm in diameter, uniform spherical morphology, high drug loading content of 0.098%±0.03% and encapsulation efficiency of 92.67%±2.80%. Moreover, the carnitine-modified micelles exhibited the similar in vitro release behavior in SGF and SIF, and evidently enhanced intestinal absorption of poorly water-soluble agent. Therefore, the designed OCTN2-targeted micelles might have a promising potential for oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs.展开更多

Hence, PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX was successfully synthesized by connecting DOX to the hydrophobic end of pH-sensitive PEOz-PLA via acid cleavable benzoic imine linker and characterized by 1 H NMR spectrum and thin layer chromatography. The critical micelle concentration of PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX was determined to be(14.84±3.85) mg/L. The conjugate micelles(denoted as PP-DOX-PM) formed by PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX using film-hydration method were characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 21 nm in diameter, and the drug loading content was 1.67%. PP-DOX-PM showed pH-dependent drug release behavior with gradually accelerated release of DOX with decrease of pH value, illustrating the micelles' distinguishing feature of endo/lysosomal pH from physiological pH by accelerating drug release. As anticipated, PP-DOX-PM maintained the cytotoxicity of DOX against MDA-MB-231 cells. Collectively, PP-DOX-PM might have great potential for effective suppression of tumor growth.展开更多

The main obstacle for the development of QSH insulators is that their strong interactions with substrates make them difficult to study experimentally. In this study, using density functional theory, we discovered that MoTe2 is a good match for a GeI monolayer. The thermal stability of a van der Waals GeI/MoTe2 heterosheet was examined via molecular-dynamics simulations. Simulated scanning tunneling microscopy revealed that the GeI monolayer perfectly preserves the bulked honeycomb structure of MoTe2. The GeI on MoTe2 was confirmed to maintain its topological band structure with a sizable indirect bulk bandgap of 0.24 eV by directly calculating the spin Chern number to be -1. As expected, the electron mobility of the GeI is enhanced by MoTe2 substrate restriction. According to deformation- potential theory with the effective-mass approximation, the electron mobility of GeI/MoTe2 was estimated as 372.7 cm^2·s^-1·V^-1 at 300 K, which is 20 times higher than that of freestanding GeI. Our research shows that traditional substrates always destroy the topological states and hinder the electron transport in QSH insulators, and pave way for the further realization and utilization of QSH insulators at room temperature.展开更多

文摘In the present study, we aimed to explore the structure-activity relationship for the new amphiphilic material rhamnoside with antibacterial biofilm activity, and provide the basis for selecting rhamnoside with the optimum antibacterial biofilm activity. A series of alkyl rhamnosides with different carbon chain lengths were obtained by a simple and effective synthesis method. The structure was characterized by ~1H NMR spectrum, and their critical micelle concentration(CMC) was measured by fluorescence probe method. The hydrophilic and lipophilic balance(HLB) value was obtained by calculation. The minimal inhibitory concentration(MIC) of Staphylococcus aureus was determined by the broth double dilution method. The effect of biofilm inhibition and biofilm disruption was assayed by crystal violet method. The results showed that with the increase of carbon chain length, the CMC and HLB of alkyl rhamnosides displayed a linear downward trend, indicating that the lipophilicity and surface activity of the alkyl rhamnoside were increased. At the same time, the antibacterial activity in vitro produced the maximum, ie, 12-hydroxydecanoyl rhamnoside had the strongest antibacterial activity in vitro. Similarly, this material also exhibited the strongest antibacterial biofilm activity in vitro. The results of this study demonstrated that the most potent active material was obtained through the structure-activity relationship and it could be applied antibacterial biofilms in clinical practice.
文摘A new family of two-dimensional (2D) topological insulators (TIs) comprising g-TIA (A = N, P, As, and Sb) monolayers constructed by T1 and group-V elements is predicted by first-principles calculations and molecular-dynamics (MD) simulations. The geometric stability, band inversion, nontrivial edge states, and electric polarity are investigated to predict the large-gap quantum spin Hall insulator and Rashba-Dresselhaus effects. The MD results reveal that the g-T1A monolayers remain stable even at room temperature. The g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayers become TIs under the influence of strong spin-orbit couplings with large bulk bandgaps of 131 and 268 meV, respectively. A single band inversion is observed in each g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayer, indicating a nontrivial topological nature. Furthermore, the topological edge states are described by introducing a sufficiently wide zigzag-nanoribbon. A Dirac point in the middle of the bulk gap connects the valence- and conduction-band edges. The Fermi velocity near the Dirac point with a linear band dispersion is -0.51 × 106 m/s, which is comparable to that of many other 2D nanomaterials. More importantly, owing to the broken inversion symmetry normal to the plane of the g-T1A films, a promising Rashba-Dresselhaus effect with the parameter up to 0.85 eV-A is observed in the g-T1A (A = As, Sb) monolayers. Our findings regarding 2D topological g-T1A monolayers with room-temperature bandgaps, intriguing topological edge states, and a promising Rashba-Dresselhaus effect are of fundamental value and suggest potential applications in nanoelectronic devices.

文摘To improve the oral absorption of poorly water-soluble drugs by overcoming the intestinal epithelium barrier, calcium carbonate nanoparticles targeting to intestine peptide transporter 1(Pep T1) were fabricated by modification of the surface of calcium carbonate nanoparticles with Gly-Sar. Gly-Sar-conjugated TPGS was successfully synthesized and characterized, and coumarin 6-loaded Gly-Sar modified calcium carbonate nanoparticles were then prepared and characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 193 nm in diameter, cracked surface morphology under a scanning electron microscope, and high drug loading efficiency(60.5±5.9)%. Moreover, the Gly-Sar-modified calcium carbonate nanoparticles exhibited better drug loading stability during the process of their transcellular transport, and evidently enhanced intestinal absorption of poorly water-soluble agents. Therefore, the designed intestine Pep T1-targeted calcium carbonate nanoparticles might have a promising potential for oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs.

文摘Eco-toxicity investigation of polymer materials was considered extremely necessary for their potential menace,which was widely use as mulching materials in agricultural.In this study,polyethylene(PE),polystyrene(PS)and synthetic biomaterials-Ecoflex and cellulose were applying into soil cultivated with two potential indicator plants species:oat(A v ena sati v a)and red radish(Raphanus sativum).Variety of chemical,biochemical parameters and enzyme activity in soil were proved as effective approach to evaluate polymers phytotoxicity in plant-soil mesocosm.The F-value of biomass,pH,heavy metal and electoral conductivity of Raphanus behaved significant different from T0.Significant analysis results indicated biodegradation was fast in PE than PS,besides,heavy metals were dramatically decrease in the end implied the plant absorption may help decrease heavy metal toxicity.The increase value at T2 of Dehydrogenase activity(0.84 higher than average value for Avena&0.91 higher for Raphanus),Metabolic Index(3.12 higher than average value for Avena&3.81 higher for Raphanus)means during soil enzyme activity was promoted by biodegradation for its heterotrophic organisms’energy transportation was stimulated.Statistics analysis was carried on Biplot PC1(24.2%of the total variance),PC2(23.2%of the total variance),versus PC3(22.8%of the total variance),which indicated phosphatase activity and metabolic index was significant correlated,and high correlation of ammonium and protease activity.Furthermore,the effects were more evident in Raphanus treatments than in Avena,suggesting the higher sensitivity of Raphanus to polymers treatment,which indicate biodegradation of polymers in Raphanus treatment has produced intermediate phytotoxic compounds.

文摘The intestinal epithelium is the main barrier to the oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs. Based on the specific transporters expressed on the apical membrane of the intestinal epithelium, novel polymer micelles targeting to the organic cation transporter 2(OCTN2) were constructed by combining carnitine conjugated poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-poly(D,L-lactide)(Car-PEOz-PLA) with monomethoxy poly(ethylene glycol)-poly(D,L-lactide)(mP EG-PLA). The structure of the synthesized Car-PEOz-PLA was confirmed by -1H NMR, TLC and ammonium reineckate precipitation reaction, and the number-average molecular weight determined by GPC was 7260 g/mol with a low PDI of 1.44. Coumarin 6-loaded carnitine modified polymeric micelles prepared by film hydration method were characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 31 nm in diameter, uniform spherical morphology, high drug loading content of 0.098%±0.03% and encapsulation efficiency of 92.67%±2.80%. Moreover, the carnitine-modified micelles exhibited the similar in vitro release behavior in SGF and SIF, and evidently enhanced intestinal absorption of poorly water-soluble agent. Therefore, the designed OCTN2-targeted micelles might have a promising potential for oral delivery of poorly water-soluble drugs.

文摘In the present study, we designed and fabricated pH-sensitive polymeric micelles based on the conjugate of poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline)-poly(D,L-lactide)(PEOz-PLA) with doxorubicin(PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX) to efficiently inhibit tumor cell growth. Hence, PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX was successfully synthesized by connecting DOX to the hydrophobic end of pH-sensitive PEOz-PLA via acid cleavable benzoic imine linker and characterized by 1 H NMR spectrum and thin layer chromatography. The critical micelle concentration of PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX was determined to be(14.84±3.85) mg/L. The conjugate micelles(denoted as PP-DOX-PM) formed by PEOz-PLA-imi-DOX using film-hydration method were characterized to have a nano-scaled size of about 21 nm in diameter, and the drug loading content was 1.67%. PP-DOX-PM showed pH-dependent drug release behavior with gradually accelerated release of DOX with decrease of pH value, illustrating the micelles' distinguishing feature of endo/lysosomal pH from physiological pH by accelerating drug release. As anticipated, PP-DOX-PM maintained the cytotoxicity of DOX against MDA-MB-231 cells. Collectively, PP-DOX-PM might have great potential for effective suppression of tumor growth.

文摘Spatiotemporal continuity of surface water datasets widely known for its significance in the surface water dynamic monitoring and assessments,are faced with drawbacks like cloud influence,which hinders the direct extraction of data from time-series remote sensing images.This study proposes a Time-series Surface Water Reconstruction method(TSWR).The initial stage of this method involves the effective use of remote sensing images to automatically construct multi-stage surface water boundaries based on Google Earth Engine(GEE).Then,we reconstructed regions the reconstruction of regions with missing water pixels using the distance relationship between the multi-stage water boundaries in previous and later periods.When applied to 10 large rivers around the world,this method yielded an overall accuracy of 98%for water extraction,an RMSE of 0.41 km2.Furthermore,time-series reconstruction tests conducted in 2020 on the Lancang and Danube rivers revealed a significant improvement in the image availability.These findings demonstrated that this method could not only be used to accurately reconstruct the surface water distribution missing water images,but also to depict a more pronounced time variation characteristic.The successful application of this method on GEE demonstrates its importance for use on large scales or in global studies.

文摘Quantum spin Hall (QSH) insulator is a new class of materials that is quickly becoming mainstream in condensed-matter physics. The main obstacle for the development of QSH insulators is that their strong interactions with substrates make them difficult to study experimentally. In this study, using density functional theory, we discovered that MoTe2 is a good match for a GeI monolayer. The thermal stability of a van der Waals GeI/MoTe2 heterosheet was examined via molecular-dynamics simulations. Simulated scanning tunneling microscopy revealed that the GeI monolayer perfectly preserves the bulked honeycomb structure of MoTe2. The GeI on MoTe2 was confirmed to maintain its topological band structure with a sizable indirect bulk bandgap of 0.24 eV by directly calculating the spin Chern number to be -1. As expected, the electron mobility of the GeI is enhanced by MoTe2 substrate restriction. According to deformation- potential theory with the effective-mass approximation, the electron mobility of GeI/MoTe2 was estimated as 372.7 cm^2·s^-1·V^-1 at 300 K, which is 20 times higher than that of freestanding GeI. Our research shows that traditional substrates always destroy the topological states and hinder the electron transport in QSH insulators, and pave way for the further realization and utilization of QSH insulators at room temperature.
