Nanoparticles based on polymers such as chitosan(CHT) and its water soluble derivative, trimethylchitosan(TMC), could be successfully used as carrier/adjuvant for this purpose. Sodium alginate, a negatively charged biopolymer, could modify the immunostimulatory properties of CHT and TMC NPs and increase their stability. Sodium alginate(ALG)-coated chitosan(CHT)and trimethylchitosan(TMC) nanoparticles(NPs) loaded with inactivated PR8 influenza virus were successfully prepared by direct coating of the virus with CHT or TMC polymers to evaluate their immunoadjuvant potential after nasal immunization. After nasal immunizations in BALB/c mice, PR8-CHT formulation elicited higher IgG2 a and Ig G1 antibody titers compared with PR8-TMC. ALG coating of this formulation(PR8-CHT-ALG) significantly decreased the antibody titers and a less immune response was induced than PR8-TMC-ALG formulation. PR8-TMC-ALG formulation showed significantly higher Ig G2 a/Ig G1 ratio, as criteria for Th1-type immune response, compared with PR8-CHT-ALG and PR8 virus alone. Altogether, the PR8-TMC-ALG formulation could be considered as an efficient intranasal antigen delivery system for nasal vaccines.展开更多

From these data, excess molar volume(VE) was calculated. Viscosities of trimethyl phosphate were also measured over a temperature range of (283.15 to 373.15)K and the data were fitted to the Andrade equation. The density data were fitted to a second-order polynomial. The excess molar volumes were fitted to the Redlich-Kister equation using a nonlinear regression method.

In the presence of Cd (Ⅱ), Bi(Ⅲ) reacts almost instantaneously with T (4TMAP)P in a 0. 6 mol/l NaAc—HAC buffer (PH5.8) at room temperature. The composition of the complex is T(4TMAP)P: Bi=1:1. The absorbance complex obeys Beer's law over the Bi(Ⅲ) concentration range 0.1—1.4 μg/ml. The linear relative coefficient γ is 0.9998. The apparent molar absorptivity was 1.75×10~5 1. mol^(-1). cm^(-1) at 463nm. The relative standard deviation of the method is 1.50% for Bi(Ⅲ) 7ug/10ml (10 determinations). The interference of foreign ions has been examined. This simple and rapid method can be applied to the assay of Bi(Ⅲ) in some tablets directly.展开更多

Plasma polymer coated polypropylene films were examined by flame retardancy test (limiting oxygen index, LOI). The highest LOI value calculated for the untreated BOPP sample was 18.4 (v/v O2%) and 24.2 (v/v O2%) for the 55 W 30 minutes treated sample. The plasma polymers were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and AFM. According to the FTIR results, the -OH, B-CH3, B-O, and BH2 functional groups were detected. It was found that the highest surface roughness belonged to 40 W 30 min treated BOPP sample which was calculated as 9.78 nm (10 μm × 10 μm). Moreover, the wettability of the modified BOPP film surfaces was characterized via contact angle measurements. The water contact angle values have decreased from 109.6? to the lowest value of 68.2? after the plasma treatment. The results showed that TMB/N2 plasma modification could be used as an alternative method for the enhancement of flame retardancy and hydrophilicity of BOPP film.展开更多

The effect of TMP on non-flammability of electrolytes was also evaluated. It is found that the TMP reduction decomposition on graphite electrode at the potential of 1.3V (vs Li/Li+) is suppressed with ethylene carbonate(EC), dimethyl carbonate(DMC) and ethylmethyl carbonate(EMC) cosolvents and vinylene carbonate(VC) additives. The results show that the non-flammable electrolyte of 1mol/L LiPF6 61%(EC1.5-DMC1.0-EMC1.0)-39% TMP has good electrochemical properties. The discharge capacities of half-cells after 20 cycles are 254.8mA·h/g for Li/graphite and 144.1mA·h/g for Li/LiCoO2. The (graphite/)(LiCoO2) prismatic lithium-ion cell delivers a discharge capacity of 131mA·h/g at first cycle. With an addition of 4%VC to this non-flammable electrolyte, a discharge capacity of 134mA·h/g at first cycle and a capacity ratio of (84.3%) after 50 cycles are obtained for prismatic lithium-ion batteries. Furthermore, a nail penetration test demonstrates that the safety of prismatic lithium-ion batteries is dramatically improved by using TMP-containing (non-)(flammable) electrolytes.展开更多

The results showed that the heptane conversion of both trimethyl phosphitetreated samples and un-phosphated samples decreased with an increase in treating temperature, but trimethylphosphite modified samples showed higher activity in comparison with the un-modified samples, which weresteam-treated at a higher temperature. The results were firstly elucidated by the model cluster method andcomputational quantum chemistry method. Full optimization and frequency analysis of all cluster model havebeen carried out using the Gaussian 94 software-package with the PM 3 semi-empirical method performed onsmall cluster models. The computational results showed that the dealumination of trimethyl phosphite modi-fied zeolite model cluster was more difficult than that of un-modified zeolite model cluster when they weretreated with steam while investigating the heat of reaction.展开更多

Here, we report that the PWWP domain proteins (PDPs) interact with FVE and MSI5 to suppress FLC expression and thereby promote flowering. We demonstrated that FVE, MSI5, and PDP3 were co-purified with LHP1. The H3K27me3 level on FLC was decreased in the pdp mutants as welt as in the fve/ msi5 double mutant. This study suggests that PDPs function together with FVE and MSI5 to regulate the function of the PRC2 complex on FLC.展开更多

Two copper(Ⅱ) atoms are bridged by four (a-methacrylate groups, and each copper(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated with a trimethyl phosphate molecule in the axial position, forming a distorted square pyramidal configuration. The symmetric center is between the two copper(Ⅱ) atoms, and the Cu-Cu bond distance is 0.26098(6) nm. The Cu-Cu distance and magnetic studies suggest that there exist anti-ferromagnetic interactions between the two copper(Ⅱ) atoms.展开更多

文摘The radiofrequency plasma (13.56 MHz) was employed to polymerize trimethyl borate (TMB) monomer/N2 gas mixture on the surface of biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films. Plasma polymer coated polypropylene films were examined by flame retardancy test (limiting oxygen index, LOI). The highest LOI value calculated for the untreated BOPP sample was 18.4 (v/v O2%) and 24.2 (v/v O2%) for the 55 W 30 minutes treated sample. The plasma polymers were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy and AFM. According to the FTIR results, the -OH, B-CH3, B-O, and BH2 functional groups were detected. It was found that the highest surface roughness belonged to 40 W 30 min treated BOPP sample which was calculated as 9.78 nm (10 μm × 10 μm). Moreover, the wettability of the modified BOPP film surfaces was characterized via contact angle measurements. The water contact angle values have decreased from 109.6? to the lowest value of 68.2? after the plasma treatment. The results showed that TMB/N2 plasma modification could be used as an alternative method for the enhancement of flame retardancy and hydrophilicity of BOPP film.

文摘The BLU gene coding for zinc finger,MYND-type containing 10(ZMYND10)protein is mapped on chromosomal region 3p21.It is frequently lost in some kinds of cancers due to hypermethylation on its promoter region and identified as a tumour suppressor gene.The underlying mechanisms for BLU-mediated tumor suppression remain unclear.BLU has been reported to disturb cell cycle progression.The present study aims at examining whether ZMYND10 prevents progression of the cell cycle by targeting to repressive histone marks and downregulating the level of cyclins.Proteins structurally similar with ZMYND10 have been shown to recognize DNA sequence upstream of coding portion of the gene encoding cell cycle regulators.Enzymes,notably demethylases modifying the lysine residues are over-expressed line oncoproteins,and targeted in anti-cancer therapy.BLU was re-expressed in H1299 and HepG2 cells.The level of cyclin D1,cyclin B1 and trimethylate lysine 9 on histone 3(H3K9me3)and the binding of BLU with SIN3A(a component of the co-repressor)were detected.Cell cycle profile was measured.The evolutionary relationship between ZMYND10 and other ZMYND proteins was analysed by phylogenetic tree construction.We found that BLU expression induced G1 arrest in H1299 cells,and induced G1/G2 arrest in HepG2 cells.Cell cycle arrest was correlated with reduced activities and levels of cyclins;cyclin D1 was downregulated in H1299 cells;Both cyclin B1 and D1 were downregulated in HepG2 cells;and that BLU was associated with SIN3A.In both cell lines,the expression of H3K9me3 was induced.BLU was clustered with histone methyltransferase SMYD3 and SMYD1 on the same clade of the deduced phylogenetic tree.The results thus suggested that ZMYND10 encoded by BLU inhibited cyclins activity to prevent cell cycle progression through interaction with repressors and histone repressive marks to block the expression of genes coding for cyclins.
文摘The properties of trimethyl phosphate(TMP)-based nonflammable electrolytes with LiPF6 as solute were investigated using graphite anode and LiCoO2 cathode. The effect of TMP on non-flammability of electrolytes was also evaluated. It is found that the TMP reduction decomposition on graphite electrode at the potential of 1.3V (vs Li/Li+) is suppressed with ethylene carbonate(EC), dimethyl carbonate(DMC) and ethylmethyl carbonate(EMC) cosolvents and vinylene carbonate(VC) additives. The results show that the non-flammable electrolyte of 1mol/L LiPF6 61%(EC1.5-DMC1.0-EMC1.0)-39% TMP has good electrochemical properties. The discharge capacities of half-cells after 20 cycles are 254.8mA·h/g for Li/graphite and 144.1mA·h/g for Li/LiCoO2. The (graphite/)(LiCoO2) prismatic lithium-ion cell delivers a discharge capacity of 131mA·h/g at first cycle. With an addition of 4%VC to this non-flammable electrolyte, a discharge capacity of 134mA·h/g at first cycle and a capacity ratio of (84.3%) after 50 cycles are obtained for prismatic lithium-ion batteries. Furthermore, a nail penetration test demonstrates that the safety of prismatic lithium-ion batteries is dramatically improved by using TMP-containing (non-)(flammable) electrolytes.

The computational results showed that the dealumination of trimethyl phosphite modi-fied zeolite model cluster was more difficult than that of un-modified zeolite model cluster when they weretreated with steam while investigating the heat of reaction.

文摘LHP1 mediates recruitment of the PRC2 histone methyltransferase complex to chromatin and thereby facilitates maintenance of H3K27me3 on FLC, a key flowering repressor gene. Here, we report that the PWWP domain proteins (PDPs) interact with FVE and MSI5 to suppress FLC expression and thereby promote flowering. We demonstrated that FVE, MSI5, and PDP3 were co-purified with LHP1. The H3K27me3 level on FLC was decreased in the pdp mutants as welt as in the fve/ msi5 double mutant. This study suggests that PDPs function together with FVE and MSI5 to regulate the function of the PRC2 complex on FLC.

文摘Two ternary complexes Cu2A4[OP(OCH3)3]2 (A represents CH2=CH-COO- and CH2=C(CH3)-COO-) have been synthesized, and elemental analyses, IR, ESR, electronic reflectance spectra and magnetic studies were carried out. The single crystal X-ray diffraction shows that Cu2[CH2=C(CH3)-COO]4[OP(OCH3)3]2 is triclinic, with space group P1, a = 1.05128(13), b = 1.7559(5), c = 1.94479(3) nm, α =91.263(14)°,(β = 102.559(6)°,γ= 106.339(13)°, Z = 4 and R = 0.0668. Two copper(Ⅱ) atoms are bridged by four (a-methacrylate groups, and each copper(Ⅱ) atom is coordinated with a trimethyl phosphate molecule in the axial position, forming a distorted square pyramidal configuration. The symmetric center is between the two copper(Ⅱ) atoms, and the Cu-Cu bond distance is 0.26098(6) nm. The Cu-Cu distance and magnetic studies suggest that there exist anti-ferromagnetic interactions between the two copper(Ⅱ) atoms.
