三角波强加载下延性金属多次层裂破坏问题

基于应力瞬时断裂判据和Tuler-Butcher损伤累积判据，分析了没有升压的简单三角波强加载下延性金属的多次层裂破坏问题。分析结果显示:层裂片的厚度随着冲击波宽度与强度的比值的增大而增大，材料的破坏深度小于冲击波宽度的一半；在强冲击加载下，材料的破坏深度约为冲击波宽度的一半。     

The Synthesis of 19-Nor-1α, 25-dihydroxy-22-oxo-vitamin D_3

Since the last decade, there has been a growing interest in the development of analogues of 1(, 25- dihydroxyvitamin D3 1 with low calcemic effect but increased cell differentiating ability1. Among side chain and the A-ring modifications of 1, the 1(, 25- dihydroxy-22-oxo-vitamin D3 22 and 19-nor-1(, 25- dihydroxyvitamin D3 33 have shown much lower calcemic effect and stronger cell differentiating ability than 1. In this paper, we reported synthesis of 19-nor-1(, 25-dihydroxy-22-oxo-vitamin …

Suppression of large intraluminal bubble expansion in shock wave lithotripsy without compromising stone comminution: refinement of reflector geometry

Using the Hamilton model [Hamilton, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 93, 1256-1266 (1993)], the effects of reflector geometry on the pulse profile and sequence of the shock waves produced by the original and upgraded reflector of an HM-3 lithotripter were evaluated qualitatively. Guided by this analysis, we have refined the geometry of the upgraded reflector to enhance its suppressive effect on intraluminal bubble expansion without compromising stone comminution in shock wave lithotripsy. Using the original HM-3 reflector at 20 kV, rupture of a standard vessel phantom made of cellulose hollow fiber (i.d. = 0.2 mm), in which degassed water seeded with ultrasound contrast agents was circulated, was produced at the lithotripter focus after about 30 shocks. In contrast, using the upgraded reflector at 24 kV no rupture of the vessel phantom could be produced within a 20-mm diameter around the lithotripter focus even after 200 shocks. On the other hand, stone comminution was comparable between the two reflector configurations, although slightly larger fragments were produced by the upgraded reflector. After 2000 shocks, stone comminution efficiency produced by the original HM-3 reflector at 20 kV is 97.15 +/- 1.92% (mean +/- SD), compared to 90.35 +/- 1.96% produced by the upgraded reflector at 24 kV (p<0.02). All together, it was found that the upgraded reflector could significantly reduce the propensity for vessel rupture in shock wave lithotripsy while maintaining satisfactory stone comminution.     

Efficient syntheses of benzothiazepines as antagonists for the mitochondrial sodium-calcium exchanger: potential therapeutics for type II diabetes

Type II diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder that can lead to serious cardiovascular, renal, neurologic, and retinal complications. While several drugs are currently prescribed to treat type II diabetes, their efficacy is limited by mechanism-related side effects (weight gain, hypoglycemia, gastrointestinal distress), inadequate efficacy for use as monotherapy, and the development of tolerance to the agents. Consequently, combination therapies are frequently employed to effectively regulate blood glucose levels. We have focused on the mitochondrial sodium-calcium exchanger (mNCE) as a novel target for diabetes drug discovery. We have proposed that inhibition of the mNCE can be used to regulate calcium flux across the mitochondrial membrane, thereby enhancing mitochondrial oxidative metabolism, which in turn enhances glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) in the pancreatic beta-cell. In this paper, we report the facile synthesis of benzothiazepines and derivatives by S-alkylation using 2-aminobenzhydrols. The syntheses of other bicyclic analogues based on benzothiazepine, benzothiazecine, benzodiazecine, and benzodiazepine templates are also described. These compounds have been evaluated for their inhibition of mNCE activity, and the results from the structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies are discussed.     

Imaging theory and resolution improvement of two-photon confocal microscopy

The nonlinear effect of two-photon excitation on the imaging property of two-photon confocal microscopy has been analyzed by the two-photon fluorescence intensity transfer function derived in this paper. The two-photon fluorescence intensity transfer function in a confocal microscopy is given. Furthermore the three-dimensional point spread function (3D-PSF) and the three-dimensional optical transfer function (3D-OTF) of two-photon confocal microscopy are derived based on the nonlinear effect of two-photon excitation. The imaging property of two-photon confocal microscopy is discussed in detail based on 3D-OTF. Finally the spatial resolution limit of two-photon confocal microscopy is discussed according to the uncertainty principle.
