Effect of astrocyte on synchronization of thermosensitive neuron-astrocyte minimum system

Astrocytes have a regulatory function on the central nervous system (CNS), especially in the temperature-sensitive hippocampal region. In order to explore the thermosensitive dynamic mechanism of astrocytes in the CNS, we establish a neuron-astrocyte minimum system to analyze the synchronization change characteristics based on the Hodgkin-Huxley model, in which a pyramidal cell and an interneuron are connected by an astrocyte. The temperature range is set as 0 ℃-40 ℃ to juggle between theoretical calculation and the reality of a brain environment. It is shown that the synchronization of thermosensitive neurons exhibits nonlinear behavior with changes in astrocyte parameters. At a temperature range of 0 ℃-18 ℃, the effects of the astrocyte can provide a tremendous influence on neurons in synchronization. We find the existence of a value for inositol triphosphate (IP₃) production rate and feedback intensities of astrocytes to neurons, which can ensure the weak synchronization of two neurons. In addition, it is revealed that the regulation of astrocytes to pyramidal cells is more sensitive than that to interneurons. Finally, it is shown that the synchronization and phase transition of neurons depend on the change in Ca²⁺ concentration at the temperature of weak synchronization. The results in this paper provide some enlightenment on the mechanism of cognitive dysfunction and neurological disorders with astrocytes.

Identification and separation of local and nonlocal optical nonlinear refraction effects: theory and experiment

Understanding the nonlinear optical effect of novel materials plays a crucial role in the fields of photonics and optoelectronics. Herein, we theoretically and experimentally investigate the simultaneous presence of third-order locally refractive nonlinearity and thermally induced nonlocal nonlinearity saturation. We present analytical expressions for the closed-aperture Z-scan trace and the number of spatial self-phase modulation(SSPM) rings,which allows one to unambiguously and conveniently separate the contributions of local and nonlocal nonlinear refraction in the case that both effects occur simultaneously. As a test, we study both the local and thermally induced nonlocal nonlinear refraction in fullerene/toluene solution by performing continuous-wave Z-scan and SSPM measurements at two different wavelengths. This work enriches the understanding of the physical mechanism of the optical nonlinear refraction effect in solution dispersions of nanomaterials, which can be exploited for nonlinear photonic devices.

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Novel Zinc Phosphonate Compound： [Zn（phen）（m-OOCC6H4PO3H）]

A novel zinc（H） metal phosphonate compound [Zn（phen）（m-OOCC6H4PO3H）] 1 （phen = phenanthroline） has been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions. Single-crystal X-ray structure analysis reveals that compound 1 belongs to the triclinic system, space group P1 with a = 9.3356（19）, b = 10.203（2）,c = 10.743（2）A,α = 76.3030（70）, β= 69.2317（51）, y = 84.3833（74）°,V = 929.4（3） ,A3, Z = 2, C2OH15N2O5PZn, Mr = 459.68, Dc = 1.643 g/cm^3,μ= 1.444, mm^-1, F（000） = 468, the final R = 0.0330 and wR = 0.0848. In the structure, the central ion Zn（H） is five-coordinated, linking three O atoms with one from carboxyl and the other two from phosphonyl group. The remained two coordinate sites were occupied by two N atoms from one phen molecule to form the asymmetric unit. Then every two adjacent asymmetric units are bridged by the O atoms from phosphonate group and carboxyl to give rise to a 1D chain along the b axis. These chains are constructed by weak π-π stacking interactions and C-H…π interactions to generate a 3D supramolecular framework.
