Also, the paper proposes the method of controlling thickness nonuniformity and develops the equipment which for uniform thickness of bulging, is automatically controlled with a computerl it also analyzes the important innuence of lubrication on thickness distribution of bulging materials. By the assumption, the relationship between bulging pressure and time is obtained in bulging of a sheet into the groove and cone, and p-t curve of multi-mould-cavity complicated bulging is discussed based on the analysis of single-mould-cavity bulging characteristics.展开更多

The mechanisms by which p53 directs a damaged cell down either a cell growth arrest or an apoptotic pathway remain poorly understood. Evidence suggests that the in vivo functions of p53 seem to balance the cell-fate choice with the type and severity of damage that occurs. The concept of antirepression, or inhibition of factors that normally keep p53 at bay, may help explain the physiological mechanisms for p53 activation. These factors also provide novel chemotherapeutic targets for the reactivation of p53 in tumors harboring a wild-type copy of the gene.展开更多

Previous studies demonstrated that the PH domain.containing protein CKIP-1 plays an important role in the devel- opment of osteobiasts and cardiomyocytes. However, whether CKIP-1 is involved in the generation of adipocytes as weU as the MSC differentiation remains unknown. Here we show that CKIP-1 is a novel regulator of MSCs differentiating into adipocytes. MSCs derived from CKIP-l-deficient mice display enhanced adipogenesis upon induction. Further analysis showed that CKIP-1 interacts with the histone deacetylase HDAC1 in the nucleus and inhibits the transcription of CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein α (C/EBPcx), which is a crucial adipogenic transcription factor. Ectopic expression of CKI P-1 in a MSC-Uke cell line C3H/10T1/2 reduced the gener- ation of adipocytes due to suppression of adipogenic factors, including C/EBPα. Moreover, CKI P-l-deficient mice showed an increase in body weight and white adipose tissue gains when fed on a high-fat diet. Collectively, these results suggest that CKIP-1 is a novel inhibitor of MSC-originated adipogenesis by enhancing HDACl-associated repression of C/EBPα.展开更多
