Purpose
The purposes of this study were to evaluate the reproducibility for measuring the cold pressor test (CPT)-induced myocardial blood flow (MBF) alteration using phase-contrast (PC) cine MRI, and to determine if this approach could detect altered MBF response to CPT in smokers.Materials and methods
After obtaining informed consent, ten healthy male non-smokers (mean age: 28 ± 5 years) and ten age-matched male smokers (smoking duration ≥ 5 years, mean age: 28 ± 3 years) were examined in this institutional review board approved study. Breath-hold PC cine MR images of the coronary sinus were obtained with a 3 T MR imager with 32 channel coils at rest and during a CPT performed after immersing one foot in ice water. MBF was calculated as coronary sinus flow divided by the left ventricular (LV) mass which was given as a total LV myocardial volume measured on cine MRI multiplied by the specific gravity (1.05 g/mL).Results
In non-smokers, MBF was 0.86 ± 0.25 mL/min/g at rest, with a significant increase to 1.20 ± 0.36 mL/min/g seen during CPT (percentage change of MBF (?MBF (%)); 39.2% ± 14.4%, p < 0.001). Inter-study reproducibility for ?MBF (%) measurements by different MR technologist was good, as indicated by the intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.93 and reproducibility coefficient of 10.5%. There was no significant difference between smokers and non-smokers for resting MBF (0.85 ± 0.32 mL/min/g, p = 0.91). However, ?MBF (%) in smokers was significantly reduced (-4.0 ± 32.2% vs. 39.2 ± 14.4%, p = 0.011).Conclusion
PC cine MRI can be used to reproducibly quantify MBF response to CPT and to detect impaired flow response in smokers. This MR approach may be useful for monitoring the sequential change of coronary blood flow in various potentially pathologic conditions and for investigating its relationship with cardiovascular risk. 相似文献12.

High performance thin-film transistors were fabricated using a new precursor of pentacene through a multiple spin-heat procedure. High quality pentacene thin films can be prepared by this method and hence a FET device can be made in a top-contact configuration. The device exhibited a remarkable field-effect mobility of 0.38 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) with an on/off ratio of 10(6). 相似文献

Yoshinori Ando 《Chemical physics letters》1992,200(6):643-648The yields of toluene-soluble material from carbon soot depend on the buffer gas as well as the pressure. Helium was more effective for yielding fullerenes than argon, and the optimum pressure was 20 Torr, under which a maximum yield of about 13 wt% was obtained. C60 showed a maximum abundance at 20 Torr, while C70 and higher fullerenes (C76, C78 and C84) at a slightly higher pressure between 20 and 50 Torr. Raw soot was also studied by electron microscopy. The pressure dependence of the fullerene yield is discussed in terms of the cooling rate and diffusion of carbon vapor around the evaporation source. 相似文献

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of the crystallization behavior of Macrogol 6000 (polyethylene glycol 6000; PEG 6000), used as a binder, during the solidification process on the properties of mononucleic granules prepared by the fluidized hot-melt granulation (FHMG) technique. Crystallization of PEG 6000 from molten liquid was investigated using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and hot stage microscopy. The results obtained from the measurement of isothermal crystallization demonstrated that crystallization of PEG 6000 was either slow or rapid. Analysis based on solid-state decomposition showed that slow crystallization was due to the two-dimensional growth of nuclei mechanism, while rapid crystallization was due to the three-dimensional growth of nuclei mechanism. Observation of the crystallization of PEG 6000 by hot stage microscopy supported the existence of two different crystallization mechanisms. Granules containing PEG 6000 that underwent rapid crystallization during FHMG showed a significantly higher fraction powder under 150 microm in diameter. This was caused by the loss of powder particles from the surface of mononucleic granules during the solidification process, because many cracks were observed after crystallization of PEG 6000 with a short isothermal crystallization time (ICT) due to the reduced of sticking of particles. The results of this study suggested that the crystallization behavior of the binder during the solidification process of FHMG can influence the properties of the resultant granules, such as particle size distribution, content uniformity or taste masking. It was also indicated that measuring the ICT using DSC was a useful method to classify PEG 6000. 相似文献

De novo design of artificial proteins is an essential approach to elucidate the principles of protein architecture and to understand
specific functions of natural proteins and also to yield novel molecules for medical and industrial aims. We have designed
artificial sequences of 153 amino acids to fit the main-chain framework of the sperm whale myoglobin structure based on the
knowledge-based energy functions to evaluate the compatibility between protein tertiary structures and amino acid sequences.
The synthesized artificial globins bind a single heme per protein molecule as designed, which show well-defined electrochemical
and spectroscopic features characteristic of proteins with a low-spin heme. Redox and ligand binding reactions of the artificial
heme proteins were investigated and these heme-related functions were found to vary with their structural uniqueness. Relationships
between the structural and functional properties are discussed. 相似文献

Vanadium oxyacetylacetonate [VO(acac)(2)] works as a catalyst for the direct synthesis of 3-sulfanylindoles from indoles and thiols under an atmospheric pressure of molecular oxygen as a reoxidant. For example, the reaction of 2-phenylindole with benzenethiol in the presence of a catalytic amount of VO(acac)(2), potassium iodide, and 2,6-di-tert-butyl-p-cresol in chlorobenzene under molecular oxygen proceeds to afford 2-phenyl-3-(phenylsulfanyl)indole in 86% yield. This catalytic system can also be applied to 2-naphthols instead of indoles to give the corresponding 1-sulfanyl-2-naphthols in up to 57% yield. 相似文献

We obtained two crystal structures of electronically interesting dicarba-closo-dodecaborane(12)s (hereafter, "carboranes") substituted with a cyclopropyl group at a caged carbon atom, i.e., C-cyclopropyl-o-carborane (4) and C-cyclopropyl-o-carboranylphenylmethanol (9), at 123 K. In these C-cyclopropyl-o-carboranes, the cyclopropyl group adopted a slightly twisted perpendicular conformation with respect to the electron-deficient carbon-carbon (C-C) bond axis in the o-carborane cage. In contrast, it has previously been shown that a phenyl group substituted at the caged carbon atom, i.e., C-phenyl-o-carborane (3), is almost parallel to this axis at both 150 and 199 K. In other words, the pi system of the phenyl ring adopted an almost bisected conformation in 3. The preferred conformation of the cyclopropane ring in these C-cyclopropyl-o-carboranes was compared among the solid, the solution, and the gaseous states and was retained under the present conditions. Moreover, we found that the C-C bond length in the o-carborane cage not only varied along the rotation of the cyclopropyl group in 4 but also was longer than that in 3, which bears a phenyl group at the dominant conformation. These phenomena may be related to homoconjugations between the caged o-carborane system that serves as an electron acceptor and the homoconjugative substituent that serves as an electron donor. In these C-cyclopropyl-o-carboranes, two types of homoconjugations would result in a slightly twisted perpendicular conformation and 4 would be more strongly stabilized than would the phenyl derivative 3. On the basis of these studies, we propose the existence of a third type of strongly stabilizing interactive geometry for a cyclopropane ring in an o-carborane system. 相似文献

A series of ruthenium(II) complex-containing partially quaternized poly(1-vinylimidazole)s with various alkyl side chains such as hexyl (C6RuQPIm), dodecyl (C12RuQPIm), and hexadecyl (C16RuQPIm) were synthesized. The effects of L -tyrosine esters with hexyl (C6Tyr), octyl (C8Tyr), and dodecyl (C12Tyr) on the quenching with methylviologen and photosensitized charge separation reactions were investigated using these metallopolymers as polymer photosensitizers. The quenching reaction took place through both a dynamic quenching process and a static quenching one mediated by the L -tyrosine esters. The kinetic parameters for these processes were obtained from a computed curve fitting using a Stern–Volmer equation derived from a combination of dynamic quenching and static quenching. The parameters had a significant dependence on the lengths of the alkyl groups in the L -tyrosine esters and the alkyl side chains on these metallopolymers. During photosensitized charge separation, the reaction proceeded through these quenching processes, referred to as direct and mediated processes. The initial rates of methylviologen radical formation also depended on these lengths; they increased when the lengths of the alkyl side chain on these metallopolymers and alkyl groups in the L -tyrosine esters were long. Such a dependence was caused by a change in the balance of some effects such as the electrostatic and steric effects. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci A: Polym Chem 37: 4360–4367, 1999 相似文献

Two types of dialkylcobalt(III) complexes containing the 2,2′-bipyridine ligand have been isolated as products of the reactions of tris(2,4-pentanedionato)cobalt(III) (Co(acac)3), 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy), and alkylaluminums in diethyl ether. When high Al/Co ratios (Al/Co > 7) were used, ionic complexes, dialkylbis(2,2′-bipyridine)cobalt(III) tetraalkylaluminates, [CoR2(bpy)2][AlR4] (R = CH3, C2H5) were obtained exclusively. Similar reactions at lower ratios (Al/Co - 1.5–2.0) gave neutral CoR2(acac)(bpy) (R = CH3, C2H5, n-C3H7, i-C3H7). These compounds were characterized by IR and NMR spectroscopy as well as by elemental analysis and chemical reactions. Molecular structural analysis of the cationic dimethylcobalt compound confirmed the cis configuration. Stepwise formation of [CoR2(bpy)2][AlR4] from Co(acac)3 is postulated and the mechanism of the alkylation reaction is discussed. 相似文献

Total synthesis of pyranicin and its deoxygenated analogues was achieved using Cl2Pd(CH3CN)2 catalyzed diastereoselective cyclization of the allylic ester as the key step. The inhibitory activity of these compounds for mitochondrial NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) was poorer than those of ordinary mono-THF acetogenins such as annonacin. 相似文献
