In this study, serum metabolic profiles of mini-pigs with atherosclerosis (AS) were analyzed by LC–TOFMS. Partial least-squares to latent structure-discriminant analysis and orthogonal projection to latent structure-discriminant analysis were used for group differentiation and selection of potential biomarkers. The mini-pig disease models were constructed by feeding a high-fat diet and inducing coronary injury, in accordance with the mechanism of AS pathogenesis. To characterize the development of AS, serum samples were collected and analyzed at two time points (two and ten weeks). Separate distinct clustering of results from normal and model mini-pigs could be observed for both the two and ten-week samples. With the development of AS, the metabolism of the model mini-pigs was more substantially disturbed. Major metabolites contributing to the discrimination were fatty acids, lysophosphatidylcholines, and bile acids. These potential biomarkers are related with inflammation, oxidative stress, and abnormal lipid and energy metabolism.
1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of methyl 2-perfluoroalkynoates with various azides have been examined, leading to a simple metal-free synthetic protocol for the synthesis of perfluoroalkylated 1,2,3-triazoles. The regiochemical results demonstrated that the cycloaddition was controlled by FMO (the frontier molecular obitals) interaction and steric hindrance in transition states. 相似文献
We have carried out a systematic structural, electric, and magnetic study on Y---Pd---B---C samples with different compositions with emphasis on the as-cast and annealed YPd5B3C0.3 which was first reported to superconduct at 23 K by Cava et al. We found that the tetragonal body-centered YPd2B2C with lattice parameters a=3.71 Å and c=10.81 Å is the phase responsible for the 23 K superconductivity and that YPd2B2C is metastable, which is consistent with the suggestion made by Cava et al. [1]: it is not stable at high temperatures nor stabilizable by Ni doping, although its isostructural compound, YNi2B2C, exists. Two new phases with Y:Pd ratios of 1:7 and 2:3, respectively, have also bee detected. 相似文献
For ann x n real matrixX, let ?(X)=X ο (X?1)T, where ο stands for the Hadamard (entrywise) product. SupposeA, B, C andD aren x n real nonsingular matrices, and among them there are at least one solutions to the equation ?(X)=1/nJn. An equivalent condition which enable $M = \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} A & B \\ C & D \\ \end{array} } \right)$ become a real solution to the equation ?(X)=1/2nJ2n, is given. As applications, we get new real solutions to the matrix equation ?(X)-1/2nJ2n by applying the results of Zhang, Yang and Cao [SIAM. J. Matrix Anal. Appl, 21 (1999), pp: 642–645] and Chen [SIAM. J. Matrix Anal. Appl, 22 (2001), pp:965–970]. At the same time, all solutions of the matrix equation ?(X)=1/4J4 are also given. 相似文献
