The spectroscopic properties of the fiber and glass are reported, and the mid-infrared fiber lasers are also numerically investigated. Cascade lasing is employed to increase the inversion population of the upper laser level. The particle swarm approach is applied to optimize the fiber laser parameters. The output power can reach 1.28 W at 4.89-μm wavelength, with a pump power of 5 W, excitation wavelength at 2.04 μm, Pr^(3+) ion concentration at 4.22 × 10^(25) ions/m^3,fiber length at 0.94 m, and fiber background loss at 3 dB/m.展开更多

The control group and model group were given normal serum stimulation, while the TCM group is treated with drug-containing serum. Finally, proceed bioinformatics analysis of the acquired differential expression protein by using TMT marking, liquid chromatography-mass (LC-MS) spectrometry, GO analysis and KEGG pathway analysis.Results:4982 proteins are identified in three groups of samples in this experiment, 4238 of them contain quantitative information. 210 up-regulate and 399 down-regulate proteins exist in model group and control group;221 up-regulate and 98 down-regulate ones are identified in TCM group and control group;310 up-regulate and 142 down-regulate proteins come to light with TCM group and control group. The result shows that the differentially expressed proteins were mainly distributed in s GO terms, such as DNA replication, nucleoplasm and protein binding of TCM group and control group. KEGG pathway enrichment analysis shows that, differentially expressed up-regulate proteins were enriched in 10 pathways, for instance DNA replication, cell cycle and mismatch repair, etc. Besides, differentially expressed down-regulate proteins were enriched in 25 pathways, enriched pathways are peroxisome, fatty acid degradation and metabolism process, etc.Conclusion: It is clear that Huanglian Wendan decoction drug-containing serum could improve insulin resistance by multi-targeting, multi-pathway synergy, and overall regulation.展开更多
