For Ni80A superalloy, the processing maps were constructed by the derivation of the stress-strain data coming from a series of isothermal compression tests at temperatures of 1273^-1473 K and strain rates of 0.01-10 s^-1. According to the processing maps and microstructural validation, the deformation parameter windows with DRX mechanism were separated in an innovative deformation mechanism map. In addition, the deformation activation energy representing deformation energy barrier was introduced to further optimize such windows. Finally, the enhanced processing maps were constructed and the parameter domains corresponding to DRX mechanism and lower deformation barrier were determined as follows: at ε=0.3, domains: 1296-1350 K, 0.056-0.32 s^-1 and 1350-1375 K, 0.035-0.11 s^-1;at ε=0.5, domains: 1290-1348 K, 0.2-0.5 s^-1 and 1305-1370 K, 0.035-0.2 s^-1;at ε=0.7, domains: 1290-1355 K, 0.042-0.26 s^-1;at ε=0.9, domains: 1298-1348 K, 0.037-0.224 s^-1.展开更多

Wnt and FGF signalling pathways play important roles in regulating the patterning of embryo AP axis. Mouse Tbx6 encodes a transcription factor that has been demonstrated to be involved in the specification of the posterior tissue in mouse embryonic body. Here, we prove that morpholino-induced knockdown of XTbx6 impairs posterior development, indicating the requirement of XTbx6 in this process. Meanwhile, gain of XTbx6 function is sufficient to induce ectopic posterior structures in Xenopus embryos. Furthermore, XTbx6 activates the expression of Xwnt8 and FGF8, which are two mediators of posterior development, suggesting a mechanism by which XTbx6 modulates posterior patterning via Wnt and FGF signalling pathway activation.展开更多

Among several meanings of destination, the most relevant one is related to the condition of the soul after death. Consequently, the purpose of this paper is to consider how this neoplatonic term is conceived in Dionysius Areopagite. For that purpose, the author will analyze such term widely used in the chapter 7 of Ecclesiastic Hierarchy in which Dionysius deals with the funerary rite and in which the notes of the dionysian eschatology are found. In other words, Dionysius' use of this term combines a spiritual and a metaphysic perspective. The former is part of the representation of the dionysian universe in which even the angels receive the name of lexeis and are distinguished by their never ending movement around the Thearchia; the latter is present among humans as a call to imitate such angelic condition. Such imitation is not possible without the effort needed to behave in agreement with an honorable lifestyle (kat'axian, neoplatonic expression also used by Dionysius) that opens the door to a condition or rank granted to man after death.展开更多

PCC 7120 produces semi-regularly spaced heterocysts along filaments. HetR, the master regulator of heterocyst differenti- ation, has been shown to up-regulate hetP and hetZ in differentiating heterocysts via specific recognition sites. HetR is also predicted to bind to the promoter of patA, a gene required for heterocyst formation at intercalary positions. Here, we show that HetR binds to the predicted site 5′ from patA. Moreover, (1) deletion of the HetR-binding site greatly diminished the expression ofpatA in vegetative cells as shown with gfp, and (2) complementation of a patA mutant by a replicating plasmid that bears patA is largely prevented by removal of that binding site. In contrast, HetR- binding sites suppressed the expression of alr0202 (a homolog of hetZ) specifically in heterocysts and of alr3234 (a homolog of hetP) in whole filaments. Our results indicate that HetR can regulate gene expression in different modes.展开更多
