The calculated results are in good agreement with all the experimental data. Their physical origins have also been explained. It is found that the mixing-degree of and base-wavefunctions in the wavefunctions of R<SUB>1</SUB> level of GSGG:Cr<SUP>3+</SUP> at 300 K is remarkable under normal pressure, and the mixing-degree rapidly decreases with increasing pressure. The change of the mixing-degree with pressure plays a key role not only for the 'pure electronic' PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line and R<SUB>2</SUB> line but also the PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line and R<SUB>2</SUB> line due to EPI. The pressure-dependent behaviors of the 'pure electronic' PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line (or R<SUB>2</SUB> line) and the PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line (or R<SUB>2</SUB> line) due to EPI are quite different. It is the combined effect of them that gives rise to the total PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line (or R<SUB>2</SUB> line). In the range of about 15 kbar ~ 45 kbar, the mergence and/or order-reversal between levels and levels take place, which cause the fluctuation of the rate of PS for with pressure. At 300 K, both the temperature-dependent contribution to R<SUB>1</SUB> line (or R<SUB>2</SUB> line or U band) from EPI and the temperature-independent one are important.展开更多

Their physical origins have been revealed. It is found that the admixture of and base-wavefunctions in the wavefunctions of R<SUB>1</SUB> level of GSGG:Cr<SUP>3+</SUP> at 70 K is remarkable under the normal pressure, and the degree of the admixture rapidly decreases with increasing pressure. The change of the degree of the admixture with the pressure plays a key role for not only the pure electronic PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line but also the PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line due to EPI. The detailed calculations and analyses show that the pressure-dependent behaviors of the pure electronic PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line and the PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line due to EPI are quite different. It is the combined effect of them that gives rise to the total PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line, which has satisfactorily explained the experimental data (including a reversal of PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line). In contributions to PS of R<SUB>1</SUB> line due to EPI at 70 K, the temperature-independent contribution is much larger than the temperature-dependent contribution. The former results from the interaction between the zero-point vibration of the lattice and localized electronic state.展开更多

We have studied the effect of hypoxia and ischemic conditions (glucose or glutamine deprivation) on the expression of several casein kinase-1 and -2 genes in glioma U87 cells and its subline with suppressed function of ERN1. It was shown that blockade of ERN1, the key endoplasmic reticulum stress sensor, leads to an increase in the expression levels of casein kinase-1G2, -1E, -2B and NUCKS1 mRNA, but suppresses casein kinase-1A1, -1D and -2A1. Moreover, the expression levels of casein kinase-1A1, -1D and 1G3 as well as casein kinase-2A1 and -2A2 mRNAs are significantly increased under glutamine dep- rivation conditions both in control and ERN1- deficient glioma cells. At the same time, casein kinase-1E, -2B and NUCKS1 mRNA expression levels are also increased under this condition, but only in cells with suppressed function of ERN1. The expression level of NUCKS1 mRNA, however, is decreased both in control glioma cells and in genetically modified cells, but casein kinase-1G2—only in control U87 cells. Cell exposure to glucose deprivation conditions enhances the expression levels of casein kinase- 1D, 1G3, -1E and -2A1 in both types of glioma cells used, but casein kinase-2B expression levels increase only in cells with suppressed function of ERN1. Hypoxia induces or suppresses the expression of most of the studied genes mainly in ERN1-knockdown cells only. Results of this study show that hypoxia as well as glutamine and glucose deprivation conditions change the expression level most of casein kinase genes and that these effects are dependent on ERN1 signaling enzyme function.展开更多
