关于Sauer引理的一个推广

Sauer引理是统计学习理论中的基本结论．在许多实际问题中，需要研究N类模式识别问题．本文将Sauer引理推广到N类分类问题．     

乙醇三维内微肋热管的传热性能

采用实验研究的方法对三维内微肋热管的强化传热特性进行研究，首次报道了以乙醇为工质的三维内微肋热管的传热性能。在实验范围内，与光管相比，竖直放置时，沸腾换热系数可以提高98％—190％，凝结换热系数可以提高76％—178％。三维内微肋结构能够同时明显地强化热管的沸腾换热与凝结换热，可以有效地减小热管的内热阻。     

Profilin1 biology and its mutation,actin(g) in disease

Profilins were discovered in the 1970s and were extensively studied for their significant physiological roles. Profilin1 is the most prominent isoform and has drawn special attention due to its role in the cytoskeleton, cell signaling, and its link to conditions such as cancer and vascular hypertrophy. Recently, multiple mutations in the profilin1 gene were linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). In this review, we will discuss the physiological and pathological roles of profilin1. We will further highlight the cytoskeletal function and dysfunction caused by profilin1 dysregulation. Finally, we will discuss the implications of mutant profilin1 in various diseases with an emphasis on its contribution to the pathogenesis of ALS.     

Modelling the long QT syndrome with induced pluripotent stem cells

The ability to generate patient-specific human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) offers a new paradigm for modelling human disease and for individualizing drug testing. Congenital long QT syndrome (LQTS) is a familial arrhythmogenic syndrome characterized by abnormal ion channel function and sudden cardiac death. Here we report the development of a patient/disease-specific human iPSC line from a patient with type-2 LQTS (which is due to the A614V missense mutation in the KCNH2 gene). The generated iPSCs were coaxed to differentiate into the cardiac lineage. Detailed whole-cell patch-clamp and extracellular multielectrode recordings revealed significant prolongation of the action-potential duration in LQTS human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (the characteristic LQTS phenotype) when compared to healthy control cells. Voltage-clamp studies confirmed that this action-potential-duration prolongation stems from a significant reduction of the cardiac potassium current I(Kr). Importantly, LQTS-derived cells also showed marked arrhythmogenicity, characterized by early-after depolarizations and triggered arrhythmias. We then used the LQTS human iPSC-derived cardiac-tissue model to evaluate the potency of existing and novel pharmacological agents that may either aggravate (potassium-channel blockers) or ameliorate (calcium-channel blockers, K(ATP)-channel openers and late sodium-channel blockers) the disease phenotype. Our study illustrates the ability of human iPSC technology to model the abnormal functional phenotype of an inherited cardiac disorder and to identify potential new therapeutic agents. As such, it represents a promising paradigm to study disease mechanisms, optimize patient care (personalized medicine), and aid in the development of new therapies.

Effect of polyalkyl polyphosphonates on bone development in young rats

Zusammenfassung Es wird gezeigt, dass Knochenentwicklung junger Ratten durch Behandlung mit Polyethylen-Polyphosphonat ohne toxische Wirkung verhindert wird. Die Polyphosphonate wirken direkt auf den Knochen und können eventuell verschiedene klinische Anwendungen finden.
