    Low_NOx emission and high efficiency combustion optimization for opposed firing boiler BASED on intelligent algorithm (2018)
    Institute of Physics (IOP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-10-31
    Description: On the basis of BP-GA algorithm for boiler efficiency and NOx emission concentration, a combustion simulation model was established. By learning the training samples based on low NOx combustion adjustment tests, the combustion simulation model can accurately map the nonlinear relationship between boiler operation parameters and boiler efficiency and NOx emission concentration. Genetic algorithm was used to obtain the optimization strategies to get the best boiler efficiency and NOx emission concentration, which provides guidance for the operation.

    Characteristics of CO2 Concentration and Flux in the Beijing Urban Area (2018)
    Wiley
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018-01-27
    Description: Since February 2012, CO 2 , H 2 O, and wind data at 10 Hz have been measured by the open-path eddy covariance systems at 8, 16, 47, 80, 140, 200, and 280 m above ground level on the 325-m Beijing meteorological tower. Analysis of the data from 2013 to 2016 indicates that the annual averaged CO 2 concentration increased and the local and regional CO 2 emission decreased with the sequestration of background CO 2 concentration. The maximum values occurred during winter and the minimum values occurred during summer. During spring, summer, and autumn, there was a constant CO 2 flux layer from 47 m to 140 m. However, during winter, CO 2 flux increased with height, and the maximum appeared at approximately 140 m and then decreased with height. Above 47 m, the CO 2 fluxes were represented as the net efflux; and below 16 m, the fluxes were near zero or a net uptake. At all observed heights, the diurnal variation in the CO 2 concentration displayed a clear cycle with a peak corresponding to the morning transportation rush hour. The local wavelet power spectra of the CO 2 concentration, CO 2 flux and other meteorological elements identified significant cross wavelet powers near the 24-h and 365-day bands for the CO 2 concentration and flux with temperature, wind speed, friction velocity, and turbulent kinetic energy.

    Effects of solution volume on hydrogen production by pulsed spark discharge in ethanol solution (2016)
    American Institute of Physics (AIP)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-07-15
    Description: Hydrogen production from ethanol solution (ethanol/water) by pulsed spark discharge was optimized by varying the volume of ethanol solution (liquid volume). Hydrogen yield was initially increased and then decreased with the increase in solution volume, which achieved 1.5 l/min with a solution volume of 500 ml. The characteristics of pulsed spark discharge were studied in this work; the results showed that the intensity of peak current, the rate of current rise, and energy efficiency of hydrogen production can be changed by varying the volume of ethanol solution. Meanwhile, the mechanism analysis of hydrogen production was accomplished by monitoring the process of hydrogen production and the state of free radicals. The analysis showed that decreasing the retention time of gas production and properly increasing the volume of ethanol solution can enhance the hydrogen yield. Through this research, a high-yield and large-scale method of hydrogen production can be achieved, which is more suitable for industrial application.

    The nature of the principal type 1 interferon-producing cells in human blood (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-06-12
    Description: Interferons (IFNs) are the most important cytokines in antiviral immune responses. "Natural IFN-producing cells" (IPCs) in human blood express CD4 and major histocompatibility complex class II proteins, but have not been isolated and further characterized because of their rarity, rapid apoptosis, and lack of lineage markers. Purified IPCs are here shown to be the CD4(+)CD11c- type 2 dendritic cell precursors (pDC2s), which produce 200 to 1000 times more IFN than other blood cells after microbial challenge. pDC2s are thus an effector cell type of the immune system, critical for antiviral and antitumor immune responses.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Siegal, F P -- Kadowaki, N -- Shodell, M -- Fitzgerald-Bocarsly, P A -- Shah, K -- Ho, S -- Antonenko, S -- Liu, Y J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Jun 11;284(5421):1835-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Saint Vincents Hospital and Medical Center, New York, NY 10011, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10364556" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Reciprocal control of T helper cell and dendritic cell differentiation (1999)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 1999-02-19
    Description: It is not known whether subsets of dendritic cells provide different cytokine microenvironments that determine the differentiation of either type-1 T helper (TH1) or TH2 cells. Human monocyte (pDC1)-derived dendritic cells (DC1) were found to induce TH1 differentiation, whereas dendritic cells (DC2) derived from CD4+CD3-CD11c- plasmacytoid cells (pDC2) induced TH2 differentiation by use of a mechanism unaffected by interleukin-4 (IL-4) or IL-12. The TH2 cytokine IL-4 enhanced DC1 maturation and killed pDC2, an effect potentiated by IL-10 but blocked by CD40 ligand and interferon-gamma. Thus, a negative feedback loop from the mature T helper cells may selectively inhibit prolonged TH1 or TH2 responses by regulating survival of the appropriate dendritic cell subset.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Rissoan, M C -- Soumelis, V -- Kadowaki, N -- Grouard, G -- Briere, F -- de Waal Malefyt, R -- Liu, Y J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Feb 19;283(5405):1183-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Schering-Plough, Laboratory for Immunological Research, 27 chemin des Peupliers, Boite Postale 11, 69571, Dardilly, France.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10024247" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Dendritic cell apoptosis in the maintenance of immune tolerance (2006)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-02-25
    Description: Apoptosis in the immune system is critical for maintaining self-tolerance and preventing autoimmunity. Nevertheless, inhibiting apoptosis in lymphocytes is not alone sufficient to break self-tolerance, suggesting the involvement of other cell types. We investigated whether apoptosis in dendritic cells (DCs) helps regulate self-tolerance by generating transgenic mice expressing the baculoviral caspase inhibitor, p35, in DCs (DC-p35). DC-p35 mice displayed defective DC apoptosis, resulting in their accumulation and, in turn, chronic lymphocyte activation and systemic autoimmune manifestations. The observation that a defect in DC apoptosis can independently lead to autoimmunity is consistent with a central role for these cells in maintaining immune self-tolerance.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chen, Min -- Wang, Yui-Hsi -- Wang, Yihong -- Huang, Li -- Sandoval, Hector -- Liu, Yong-Jun -- Wang, Jin -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2006 Feb 24;311(5764):1160-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Immunology, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030, USA. minc@bcm.edu〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/16497935" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Genome-scale identification of nucleosome positions in S. cerevisiae (2005)
    American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2005-06-18
    Description: The positioning of nucleosomes along chromatin has been implicated in the regulation of gene expression in eukaryotic cells, because packaging DNA into nucleosomes affects sequence accessibility. We developed a tiled microarray approach to identify at high resolution the translational positions of 2278 nucleosomes over 482 kilobases of Saccharomyces cerevisiae DNA, including almost all of chromosome III and 223 additional regulatory regions. The majority of the nucleosomes identified were well-positioned. We found a stereotyped chromatin organization at Pol II promoters consisting of a nucleosome-free region approximately 200 base pairs upstream of the start codon flanked on both sides by positioned nucleosomes. The nucleosome-free sequences were evolutionarily conserved and were enriched in poly-deoxyadenosine or poly-deoxythymidine sequences. Most occupied transcription factor binding motifs were devoid of nucleosomes, strongly suggesting that nucleosome positioning is a global determinant of transcription factor access.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Yuan, Guo-Cheng -- Liu, Yuen-Jong -- Dion, Michael F -- Slack, Michael D -- Wu, Lani F -- Altschuler, Steven J -- Rando, Oliver J -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2005 Jul 22;309(5734):626-30.

    Decreased abundance of TRESK two-pore domain potassium channels in sensory neurons underlies the pain associated with bone metastasis (2018)
    The American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2018
    Description: 〈p〉Cancer-associated pain is debilitating. Understanding the mechanisms that cause it can inform drug development that may improve quality of life in patients. Here, we found that the reduced abundance of potassium channels called TRESK in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons sensitized nociceptive sensory neurons and cancer-associated pain. Overexpressing TRESK in DRG neurons suppressed tumor-induced neuronal hyperexcitability and pain hypersensitivity in bone metastasis model rats, whereas knocking down TRESK increased neuronal hyperexcitability and pain hypersensitivity in normal rats. Mechanistically, tumor-associated production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) activated the receptor VEGFR2 on DRGs, which increased the abundance of the calcineurin inhibitor DSCR1, which, in turn, decreased calcineurin-mediated activation of the transcription factor NFAT, thereby reducing the transcription of the gene encoding TRESK. Intrathecal application of exogenous calcineurin to tumor-bearing rats rescued TRESK abundance and abrogated both DRG hyperexcitability and pain hypersensitivity, whereas either inhibition or knockdown of calcineurin in normal rats reduced TRESK abundance and increased DRG excitability and pain sensitivity. These findings identify a potentially targetable mechanism that may cause bone metastasis–associated pain in cancer patients.〈/p〉
