碳离子辐照对神经胶质瘤干细胞杀伤的研究

虽然重离子束治癌已经被证明有着射程精确、入口坪区剂量小、相对生物学效应高等显著优点,但重离子辐照对肿瘤干细胞所产生的辐射生物学效应特性依旧不明确。本研究使用人源神经胶质瘤干细胞来研究在面对肿瘤干细胞时,重离子相对于传统X射线是否有明显的生物学优势。实验结果证明,在神经胶质瘤干细胞中,2 Gy碳离子造成的DNA损伤的修复率比X射线造成的损伤修复率要低;MTT实验则证明经过碳离子辐照的肿瘤干细胞活力要比X射线辐照的肿瘤干细胞低得多。综上所述,面对神经胶质瘤干细胞,碳离子能更有效地靶向肿瘤干细胞从而相对于传统X射线有明显的生物学优势。这些发现对于更好地理解重离子束治癌相关的生物学效应有重要的作用。Though heavy-ion therapy has demonstrated significant benefits such as well-defined range, small entrance dose and high relative biological effectiveness, the characteristics of radio-biological effects on cancer stem cells induced by heavy-ion treatment is not completely clear. In this paper, we used human glioma cancer stem cells to investigate whether heavy ions offered a biological advantage, by effectively targeting cancer stem cells, in comparison to conventional X-rays. Our results showed that the repair rate of DNA damage generated by 2 Gy of carbon ions was lower than that generated by X-rays in glioma stem cells. MTT assay showed that the viability of cancer stem cells irradiated by carbon ions was significant lower than that irradiated by X-rays. Taken together, carbon ions showed a biological advantage over X-rays by effectively targeting glioma cancer stem cells. These findings have significant importance in understanding the biological effects related to heavy-ion therapy.     

Synthesis of LiMn2O4 Nano-wires via Flux Method and Their Usage as Cathode Material for Lithium Ion Batteries

LiMn₂O₄ nano-wires with ideal size distribution were readily synthesized by flux method. Samples prepared conventionally were used as the comparison references to investigate the effect of flux. The structural, morphological and electrochemical properties of nano-sized materials were examined by powder X-ray diffraction(XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and charge-discharge cycling analysis. Results from galvanostatic charge-discharge analysis show that the samples prepared at 700℃ via flux method(FM-700) afford the highest initial discharge capacity of 125.5 mA·h/g between 3.0 to 4.3 V at a rate of 0.2 C. After 50 cycles, a cycling retention of 89.6% is evident. Overall, the LiMn₂O₄ nano-wires developed in this work seem to be promising cathode materials for lithium ion batteries suitable to different energy-saving settings.     

Preparation and microwave-absorbing properties of NiFe2O4-polystyrene composites

NiFe₂O₄ nanoparticles were synthesized by the polyacrylamide gel method with acrylamide as the monomer and N,N′-methylenediacrylamide as lattice agent. The average crystallite sizes of the nickel ferrites annealed at 500, 600 and 800 °C are about 10, 30 and 50 nm, respectively. Ferrite-polystyrene composites were made by hot pressing, and microwave-absorbing properties of the composites with different contents of 35, 45, 55 and 65 wt% ferrite were investigated by testing complex permeability and complex permittivity in the X-band (8.2-12.4 GHz) frequency range. All the parameters, ε′, ε″, μ′ and μ″, increase with increasing ferrite content. The reflection losses were calculated based on a model of a single-layered plane wave absorber backed by a perfect conductor. The composite with 65 wt% ferrite content shows a minimum reflection loss of −13 dB at 11.5 GHz with a −10 dB bandwidth over the extended frequency range of 10.3-13 GHz for an absorber thickness of 2 mm.

Phase separation in polystyrene/poly (vinyl methyl ether) blend revealed by two-dimensional correlation resonance light scattering spectroscopy

Two-dimensional (2D) correlation resonance light scattering (RLS) spectroscopy has been successfully applied to investigate phase separation of polystyrene (PS)/poly (vinyl methyl ether) (PVME) film by using a conventional spectrofluorimeter. 2D synchronous correlation RLS spectrum indicates that the RLS peak intensity drastically increases with a rise in temperature due to aggregation of chromophores (i.e. phenyl rings) in PS particles in the course of phase separation. In addition, as concluded by 2D asynchronous correlation RLS spectrum, RLS has higher sensitivity than conventional light scattering. For RLS, the closer to the absorption band, the more sensitive it is to the aggregation during phase separation. By means of moving-window two-dimensional (MW2D) correlation spectrum based on autocorrelation calculations, the cloud point (370 K) was determined, which is in good agreement with the literature. On the other hand, time evolution of RLS intensity at various temperatures distinctly shows that phase separation of PS/PVME film involves two mechanisms, i.e. spinodal decomposition (SD) and nucleation and growth (NG). Accordingly, 2D correlation RLS proves to be a very simple and sensitive method to monitor phase separation in polymer blends and might supplement the existing characterization tools.

Self-referenced continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution

We propose a scheme to remove the demand of transmitting a high-brightness local oscillator (LO) in continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (CV-MDI QKD) protocol, which we call as the self-referenced (SR) CV-MDI QKD. We show that our scheme is immune to the side-channel attacks, such as the calibration attacks, the wavelength attacks and the LO fluctuation attacks, which are all exploiting the security loopholes introduced by transmitting the LO. Besides, the proposed scheme waives the necessity of complex multiplexer and demultiplexer, which can greatly simplify the QKD processes and improve the transmission efficiency. The numerical simulations under collective attacks show that all the improvements brought about by our scheme are only at the expense of slight transmission distance shortening. This scheme shows an available method to mend the security loopholes incurred by transmitting LO in CV-MDI QKD.
