    Description: For a period of about 1 yr between the summers of 2010 and 2011, 25 broad-band seismographs were deployed in a roughly linear array across the eastern end of the Qaidam basin and the Qilian Shan in the northeastern Tibetan plateau. This region is probably the most suitable place to study the ongoing convergence interaction between the high Tibetan plateau and the main Asian continental plate. Low-frequency P receiver function analysis of the data provides an image of the crust and mantle down to 700 km depth. In addition to the Moho at 45–65 km depth beneath the profile, the 410 and 660 km discontinuities bounding the mantle transition zone can be identified at 400–410 and 650–660 km depths, respectively. A possible increase in temperature in the upper mantle thought to exist beneath the northern part of the high Tibetan plateau is thus confined to this part of the plateau and lower upper-mantle temperatures similar to those beneath southern Tibet occur beneath the Qaidam basin and Qilian Shan. When higher frequencies are included in the P receiver function analysis, a positive Ps converter dipping down to the south from 70–75 km depth at 37.9°N to about 110 km depth at 36°N is imaged. As this feature is only seen in high-frequency images and not in the low-frequency image, it is modelled as the positive Ps conversion from the base of an approximately 5-km-thick anisotropic layer at the top of the Asian mantle lithosphere which is currently subducting. This south-dipping converter continues to the south on the INDEPTH IV profile. S receiver function analysis completes the image of the structure below the Qilian Shan profile with the identification of the lithosphere–asthenosphere boundary (LAB). The LAB of the Asian Plate is identified for a reference slowness of 6.4 s deg –1 at 12–14 s (105–125 km depth) between 38 and 41°N below the northern part of the S receiver function profile. To the south it increases in depth such that it is at about 19 s (170 km depth) between 34 and 35°N at the southern end of the profile. The LAB of the Asian Plate occurs at similar depths on the INDEPTH IV profile at the latitudes where the INDEPTH IV and Qilian Shan profiles overlap. As on the INDEPTH IV profile to the south, between 34 and 35°N at the southern end of the Qilian Shan profile there is evidence from the S receiver functions for the LAB of a separate Tibetan Plate.

    Description: Rana esculenta tropomyosin assembles in vivo into a coiled-coil alpha helix from two different subunits, alpha and beta, which are present in about equal concentrations. Although the native composition is alpha beta, a mixture of equal amounts of alpha alpha and beta beta is produced by refolding dissociated alpha and beta at low temperature in vitro. Refolding kinetics showed that alpha alpha formed first and was relatively stable with regard to chain exchange below approximately 20 degrees C. Equilibration of the homodimer mixture at 30 degrees and 34 degrees C for long times, however, resulted in the formation of the native alpha beta molecule by chain exchange. Biosynthesis of alpha beta from separate alpha and beta genes is, therefore, favored thermodynamically over the formation of homodimers, and biological factors need not be invoked to explain the preferred native alpha beta composition.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Lehrer, S S -- Qian, Y D -- Hvidt, S -- HL22461/HL/NHLBI NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1989 Nov 17;246(4932):926-8.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Muscle Research, Boston Biomedical Research Institute, MA 02114.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/2814515" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: When electrons are subject to a large external magnetic field, the conventional charge quantum Hall effect dictates that an electronic excitation gap is generated in the sample bulk, but metallic conduction is permitted at the boundary. Recent theoretical models suggest that certain bulk insulators with large spin-orbit interactions may also naturally support conducting topological boundary states in the quantum limit, which opens up the possibility for studying unusual quantum Hall-like phenomena in zero external magnetic fields. Bulk Bi(1-x)Sb(x) single crystals are predicted to be prime candidates for one such unusual Hall phase of matter known as the topological insulator. The hallmark of a topological insulator is the existence of metallic surface states that are higher-dimensional analogues of the edge states that characterize a quantum spin Hall insulator. In addition to its interesting boundary states, the bulk of Bi(1-x)Sb(x) is predicted to exhibit three-dimensional Dirac particles, another topic of heightened current interest following the new findings in two-dimensional graphene and charge quantum Hall fractionalization observed in pure bismuth. However, despite numerous transport and magnetic measurements on the Bi(1-x)Sb(x) family since the 1960s, no direct evidence of either topological Hall states or bulk Dirac particles has been found. Here, using incident-photon-energy-modulated angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (IPEM-ARPES), we report the direct observation of massive Dirac particles in the bulk of Bi(0.9)Sb(0.1), locate the Kramers points at the sample's boundary and provide a comprehensive mapping of the Dirac insulator's gapless surface electron bands. These findings taken together suggest that the observed surface state on the boundary of the bulk insulator is a realization of the 'topological metal'. They also suggest that this material has potential application in developing next-generation quantum computing devices that may incorporate 'light-like' bulk carriers and spin-textured surface currents.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hsieh, D -- Qian, D -- Wray, L -- Xia, Y -- Hor, Y S -- Cava, R J -- Hasan, M Z -- England -- Nature. 2008 Apr 24;452(7190):970-4. doi: 10.1038/nature06843.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Joseph Henry Laboratories of Physics, Department of Physics, Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials, Princeton University, Princeton, New Jersey 08544, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18432240" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Haematopoiesis is maintained by a hierarchical system where haematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) give rise to multipotent progenitors, which in turn differentiate into all types of mature blood cells. HSCs maintain themselves for the lifetime of the organism because of their ability to self-renew. However, multipotent progenitors lack the ability to self-renew, therefore their mitotic capacity and expansion potential are limited and they are destined to eventually stop proliferating after a finite number of cell divisions. The molecular mechanisms that limit the proliferation capacity of multipotent progenitors and other more mature progenitors are not fully understood. Here we show that bone marrow cells from mice deficient in three genes genetically downstream of Bmi1--p16Ink4a, p19Arf and Trp53 (triple mutant mice; p16Ink4a and p19Arf are alternative reading frames of the same gene (also called Cdkn2a) that encode different proteins)--have an approximately 10-fold increase in cells able to reconstitute the blood long term. This increase is associated with the acquisition of long-term reconstitution capacity by cells of the phenotype c-kit+Sca-1+Flt3+CD150-CD48-Lin-, which defines multipotent progenitors in wild-type mice. The pattern of triple mutant multipotent progenitor response to growth factors resembles that of wild-type multipotent progenitors but not wild-type HSCs. These results demonstrate that p16Ink4a/p19Arf and Trp53 have a central role in limiting the expansion potential of multipotent progenitors. These pathways are commonly repressed in cancer, suggesting a mechanism by which early progenitor cells could gain the ability to self-renew and become malignant with further oncogenic mutations.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Akala, Omobolaji O -- Park, In-Kyung -- Qian, Dalong -- Pihalja, Michael -- Becker, Michael W -- Clarke, Michael F -- England -- Nature. 2008 May 8;453(7192):228-32. doi: 10.1038/nature06869.

    Description: Topological insulators are a new class of insulators in which a bulk gap for electronic excitations is generated because of the strong spin-orbit coupling inherent to these systems. These materials are distinguished from ordinary insulators by the presence of gapless metallic surface states, resembling chiral edge modes in quantum Hall systems, but with unconventional spin textures. A key predicted feature of such spin-textured boundary states is their insensitivity to spin-independent scattering, which is thought to protect them from backscattering and localization. Recently, experimental and theoretical efforts have provided strong evidence for the existence of both two- and three-dimensional classes of such topological insulator materials in semiconductor quantum well structures and several bismuth-based compounds, but so far experiments have not probed the sensitivity of these chiral states to scattering. Here we use scanning tunnelling spectroscopy and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy to visualize the gapless surface states in the three-dimensional topological insulator Bi(1-x)Sb(x), and examine in detail the influence of scattering from disorder caused by random alloying in this compound. We show that, despite strong atomic scale disorder, backscattering between states of opposite momentum and opposite spin is absent. Our observations demonstrate that the chiral nature of these states protects the spin of the carriers. These chiral states are therefore potentially useful for spin-based electronics, in which long spin coherence is critical, and also for quantum computing applications, where topological protection can enable fault-tolerant information processing.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Roushan, Pedram -- Seo, Jungpil -- Parker, Colin V -- Hor, Y S -- Hsieh, D -- Qian, Dong -- Richardella, Anthony -- Hasan, M Z -- Cava, R J -- Yazdani, Ali -- England -- Nature. 2009 Aug 27;460(7259):1106-9. doi: 10.1038/nature08308.

    Description: The metabolism of oxygen, although central to life, produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) that have been implicated in processes as diverse as cancer, cardiovascular disease and ageing. It has recently been shown that central nervous system stem cells and haematopoietic stem cells and early progenitors contain lower levels of ROS than their more mature progeny, and that these differences are critical for maintaining stem cell function. We proposed that epithelial tissue stem cells and their cancer stem cell (CSC) counterparts may also share this property. Here we show that normal mammary epithelial stem cells contain lower concentrations of ROS than their more mature progeny cells. Notably, subsets of CSCs in some human and murine breast tumours contain lower ROS levels than corresponding non-tumorigenic cells (NTCs). Consistent with ROS being critical mediators of ionizing-radiation-induced cell killing, CSCs in these tumours develop less DNA damage and are preferentially spared after irradiation compared to NTCs. Lower ROS levels in CSCs are associated with increased expression of free radical scavenging systems. Pharmacological depletion of ROS scavengers in CSCs markedly decreases their clonogenicity and results in radiosensitization. These results indicate that, similar to normal tissue stem cells, subsets of CSCs in some tumours contain lower ROS levels and enhanced ROS defences compared to their non-tumorigenic progeny, which may contribute to tumour radioresistance.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2778612/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2778612/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Diehn, Maximilian -- Cho, Robert W -- Lobo, Neethan A -- Kalisky, Tomer -- Dorie, Mary Jo -- Kulp, Angela N -- Qian, Dalong -- Lam, Jessica S -- Ailles, Laurie E -- Wong, Manzhi -- Joshua, Benzion -- Kaplan, Michael J -- Wapnir, Irene -- Dirbas, Frederick M -- Somlo, George -- Garberoglio, Carlos -- Paz, Benjamin -- Shen, Jeannie -- Lau, Sean K -- Quake, Stephen R -- Brown, J Martin -- Weissman, Irving L -- Clarke, Michael F -- R01 CA100225/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- R01 CA100225-05/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U54 CA126524/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- U54 CA126524-04/CA/NCI NIH HHS/ -- England -- Nature. 2009 Apr 9;458(7239):780-3. doi: 10.1038/nature07733.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Radiation Oncology, Stanford University School of Medicine, Stanford, California 94305, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19194462" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉
