Immuno-laser capture microdissection of frozen prolactioma sections to prepare proteomic samples

Laser capture microdissection (LCM) technology combined with immunohistochemistry (immuno-LCM) is a valuable tool to obtain specific target cell populations and therefore this technique enables more accurate proteomic profile. In this study, we optimized the regular immuno-LCM technique to isolate and stain pure prolactin cells from either normal human pituitary (n = 6) or prolactioma (n = 11). Compared with the routine procedure, more intense and specific staining could be obtained when sections were pretreated with 0.2% Triton X-100 for 4 min. Interestingly, longer pretreatment (0.2% Triton X-100 for 10 min) or higher concentration (2% Triton X-100 for 4 and 10 min) greatly impaired labeling intensity and cell shape. Further scanning electron microscope study revealed that the component extracted from the cell surface by Triton X-100 was lipid. Using the optimized immuno-LCM technique, more pure prolactin cells could be isolated and prepared for further proteomic analysis. Taken together, we reported an optimized immuno-LCM technique that could effectively dissect pure target cells in different type pituitary adenomas for further proteomics analysis.     

A phosphorus‐containing thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyester with low mesophase temperature and high flame retardance

A novel phosphorus‐containing thermotropic liquid crystalline copolyester with flexible spacers (P‐TLCP‐FS) was synthesized by melt transesterification from p‐acetoxybenzoic acid (p‐ABA), terephthalic acid (TPA), ethylene glycol, and acetylated 2‐(6‐oxid‐6H‐dibenz(c,e) (1,2) oxaphosphorin 6‐yl) 1,4‐benzenediol (AODOPB). The chemical structure and properties of the obtained P‐TLCP‐FS were characterized by Fourier‐transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (¹H‐NMR), inherent viscosity measurements, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetry (TGA), polarizing light microscopy (PLM), and X‐ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. P‐TLCP‐FS had inherent viscosities of 0.92–1.12 dL/g and exhibited low and wide mesophase temperatures, ranging from 185 to 330 °C, which can match with the processing temperatures of most conventional polymers and high flame retardancy with a limiting oxygen index value of 70% and UL‐94 V‐0 rating. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Cobalt(II)‐Catalyzed C?H Alkynylation/Annulation with Terminal Alkynes: Selective Access to 3‐Methyleneisoindolin‐1‐one

A highly efficient cobalt(II)‐catalyzed alkynylation/annulation of terminal alkynes assisted by an N,O‐bidentate directing group is described. This protocol is characterized by wide substrate scope utilizing cheap cobalt catalysts, and offers a new approach to 3‐methyleneisoindolin‐1‐one, which can be converted into an oxadiazine salt in one step. Moreover, the directing group could be removed in three steps.     

Lot‐sizing policies for deterioration items under two‐level trade credit with partial trade credit to credit‐risk retailer and limited storage capacity

The main purpose of this article is to investigate the optimal wholesaler's replenishment decisions for deterioration items under two levels of the trade credit policy and two storage facilities in order to reflect the supply chain management situation within the economic order quantity framework. In this study, each of the following assumptions have been made: (1) The own warehouse with limited capacity always is not sufficient to store the order quantity, so that a rented warehouse is needed to store the excess units over the capacity of the own warehouse; (2) The wholesaler always obtains the partial trade credit, which is independent of the order quantity offered by the supplier, but the wholesaler offers the full trade credit to the retailer; (3) The wholesaler must take a loan to pay his or her supplier the partial payment immediately when the order is received and then pay off the loan with the entire revenue. Under these three conditions, the wholesaler can obtain the least costs. Furthermore, this study models the wholesaler's optimal replenishment decisions under the aforementioned conditions in the supply chain management. Two theorems are developed to efficiently determine the optimal replenishment decisions for the wholesaler. Finally, numerical examples are given to illustrate the theorems that are proven in this study, and the sensitivity analysis with respect to the major parameters in this study is performed.

Removal of C3F8 Via the Combination of Non-Thermal Plasma, Adsorption and Catalysis

The feasibility of C₃F₈ abatement via combining nonthermal plasma with adsorption and/or catalysis is investigated in this study. In terms of the simultaneous combination of plasma, adsorption and catalysis (CPAC), three different configurations including A/C layer (adsorbent layer prior to catalyst layer), C/A layer (catalyst layer prior to adsorbent layer) and A/C mixture (adsorbent and catalyst are mechanically mixed) are adopted. For all the experimental tests conducted in this study, the gas stream consists of 500 ppm C₃F₈, 2% O₂, and balanced N₂. The experimental results indicate that C₃F₈ removal efficiencies depend on what kind of packing material is adopted (adsorbent, catalyst or both) and how the material is packed within the plasma reactor. The removal efficiencies obtained with different reactors are in the order as: CPAC (A/C layer; AC mixture) > CPA (plasma with adsorbent alone) > CPC (plasma with catalyst alone) > CPAC (C/A layer). The indentified products after treatment include CO₂, CO, N₂O and CF₄. The formation of C₂F₆ is not observed in this study, which is encouraging since the global warming potential of C₂F₆ is actually higher than that of C₃F₈.

Synthesis and Crystal Structures of the Molybdenum(II) Complexes with the N,N‐dimethylthiocarbamoyl Containing Ligand: Crystal Structures of [Mo(CO)2(η2‐S2COEt)(η2‐SCNMe2)(PPh3)] and [Mo(CO)2(η2‐S2CNC4H8)(η2‐SCNMe2)(PPh3)]

The reaction of the thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)₂Cl] 1 , with EtOCS2K and C4H8NCS2NH4 in dichloromethane at room temperature yielded the seven coordinated ethyldithiocarbonate thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐S₂COEt)(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)] 2 , and the dithiocarbamate thiocarbamoyl‐molybdenum complex [Mo(CO)₂(η²‐S₂CNC₄H₈)(η²‐SCNMe₂)(PPh₃)] 3 . The geometry around the metal atom of compounds 2 and 3 are capped octahedrons as revealed by X‐ray diffraction analyses. The thiocarbamoyl and ethyldithiocarbonate or pyrrolidinyldithiocarbamate ligands coordinate to the molybdenum metal center through the carbon and sulfur and two sulfur atoms, respectively. Structure parameters, NMR, IR and Mass spectra are in agreement with the crystal chemistry of the two compounds.
