The application study of aircraft digital flexible assembly system is just beginning in our country recently. To meet the requirements of automated posture alignment and join in digital assembly system for large aircraft components, a novel fitting fixture called 3-axis actuator is developed. On the basis of the actuators, three kinds of posture alignment system for large aircraft components are proposed, including the non-redundant system, the redundant actuating system, and the redundant leg system, and their constitutions and properties are introduced. Through deriving the feeding transmission stiffness model of single actuator and analyzing the inverse kinematics of these systems, the relationship between the external force and the changes of position and orientation of large aircraft component is obtained, and then the postural alignment stiffness models are established. With the method mentioned above, the postural alignment stiffness of three systems is computed by using the algebraic formulate, and the results show that redundant properties can increase system＇s postural alignment stiffness. As an example, a optimized layout of the assembly system for a given model of aircraft is developed, the results of application show that the layout has many advantages, such as high accuracy, stiffness, stability, reliability, efficiency and flexible, which can satisfy the requirement of aircraft digital assembly system well. The proposed study of postural alignment stiffness for different systems can supply the theoretic support for the optimization layout design of aircraft digital assembly system, and contribute to evaluate the system working performance of systems.展开更多

This study aimed to clone complement component C7 and analyze the different expression of C7 mRNA in fish fed during either the day or at night and then challenged with Aeromonas hydrophila infection. The P v-C7 cDNA of Pelteobagrus vachellii contained 2 647 bp with an open reading frame encoding a protein of 818 amino acids. Multiple sequences analysis indicated that P v-C7 included eight domains, which was similar to results for other species. Quantitative PCR analysis showed that P v-C7 was mainly expressed in the liver, spleen, intestine and head kidney tissues of healthy P. vachellii. Quantitative PCR analysis showed that C7 mRNA transcript in the liver, spleen and head kidney also increased significantly when the fish were fed at nighttime(20:00). In addition, the expression of Pv-C7 mRNA significantly increased with A. hydrophila challenge in the liver(48–96 h), spleen and head kidney(12–96 h) tissues of P. vachellii. Pv-C7 mRNA expression of the fish fed at nighttime showed significant higher than that in the fish fed at day time at 12–48 h in head kidney and 12–24 h in spleen. This study indicates that altering the feeding time from daytime to nighttime could increase P v-C7 mRNA expression, and feeding time may af fect the immune response involving C7.展开更多

文摘Pentraxin-3(PTX3),the prototype of long pentraxins,seems to influence complement system(CS)modulation.PTX3 and CS sustain carcinogenesis,enriching tumor microenvironment(TME)with pro-inflammatory molecules promoting angiogenesis in prostate cancer(PC)and renal cell carcinoma(RCC).Furthermore,cancer cells overexpress complement regulatory proteins,such as CD46,CD55 and CD59,which negatively affect complement pathways for support cancer cells survival.This viewpoint aims to elucidate the ambivalent role of PTX3 and the CS in the context of tumor microenvironment(TME).
文摘Objective To study the effect of Asparagus officinalis polysaccharide on the number and activity of erythrocyte complement receptor 1 in S180 mice.Methods Red blood cells from mice venous blood were labeled by rat anti-mouse CD35 monoclonal antibody and FITC-conjugated goat anti-mouse antibody.Using flow cytometry,we determined the number of ECR1.Using microscope,we studied the adherence between erythrocyte immunity and C3b receptor or tumor-cell by RBC-C3bRR and DTER.Results Comparing the mean value of the number of CR1 on each RBC of high and middle groups with control groups,the mean value of the number of CR1,RBC-C3bRR and DTER of Asparagus officinalis polysaccharide groups are increased significantly.Conclusions Asparagus officinalis polysaccharide can improve the erythrocyte function of S180 mice,which may be one of its most important antitumor mechanisms.
文摘3D printing is a rapid prototyping technology to shape materials or objects through printing layer by layer driven by digital models, which can be adopted for the manufacture of refractory precast components. Thus, the production technology of refractory precast components as well as the technique and advantages of 3D printing was introduced. The feasibility and application prospect of 3D printing concrete, contour crafting and adhesive 3D printing in refractory precast components were presented.
文摘目的基于实时细胞分析(real time cell analysis,RTCA)技术对中药挥发性组分的细胞毒性及抗人腺病毒3型(human adenovirus 3,HAdV-3)的作用进行毒/效整合分析,构建抗病毒药物高通量筛选的新策略。方法采用RTCA技术动态监测不同接种密度的A549细胞48 h生长曲线及10倍梯度稀释的HAdV-3感染A549细胞生长曲线,获得A549细胞最佳接种密度及HAdV-3最佳稀释浓度用于后续实验。以利巴韦林为阳性对照,基于RTCA技术采用曲线下面积(Area Under the Curve,AUC)方法对5种中药挥发性组分的细胞毒性及抗HAdV-3的作用进行毒/效整合分析,并与传统终点法数据处理进行对比。结果终点法中艾叶、柴胡、薄荷、荆芥、牛蒡子、酸枣仁和利巴韦林对细胞的保护率分别为0.73%、12.50%、20.99%、44.50%、27.99%、51.50%和82.70%;AUC法中艾叶、柴胡、薄荷的选择性指数(Selective Index,SI)为负数,分别为-0.57、-0.21和-0.08。荆芥、牛蒡子、酸枣仁和利巴韦林的SI值分别为0.14、0.40、0.72和5.33。以利巴韦林的抗病毒活性为参照,终点法中酸枣仁、牛蒡子和荆芥的抗病毒活性为利巴韦林抗病毒活性的62.27%、33.85%和53.81%;AUC法中酸枣仁、牛蒡子和荆芥的抗病毒活性为利巴韦林抗病毒活性的13.51%、7.50%和2.63%。结论传统终点法与研究采用的AUC法计算结果有较大的差异。传统的抗病毒活性筛选研究多采用终点法检测受试药物对病毒感染细胞的保护作用,无法反映整个感染周期的变化,缺乏细胞毒的数据也会对结果的判断产生偏差。研究提示基于RTCA技术对中药挥发性组分开展抗HAdV-3的毒/效整合评价,采用AUC方法计算药物的选择性指数作为高通量筛选新策略,能快速、精准地判断受试药物的抗病毒活性,具有准确性高、重复性好的优势。
