非均匀介质下的可调光流控器件及其生化应用

 探讨了非均匀介质下不同光流控器件及其生化应用。在微流控芯片上，主要从2个方面开发和实现各类具有光波导、透镜、细胞计数、化学检测等功能的新器件。首先，在液液非均匀介质下，通过调节沟道内液体流速，控制液体间的对流扩散来实现液体在微腔内的渐变折射率分布和阶跃分布，从而得到其特殊的光学特性，例如光束分离、弯曲、自聚焦等。其次，在固体非均匀介质下，利用特殊的微流结构与液体相结合，实现更加灵敏可调的新型探测手段。这些新型技术手段分别在生物传感、能源生产、细胞探测及海水检测等诸多应用中可发挥关键性作用。     

PEMFC电催化剂利用率研究方法的探讨

提高电催化剂的利用率以降低质子交换膜燃料电池(PEMFC)的成本，是加速其商业化的一个重要途径。文中讨论了现有的CV法在研究PEMFC电催化剂利用率时存在的一些问题，如CV法扫描速度的影响及Pt理论比表面积难于准确确定等，为了较好地解决这一问题，提出了一种以单位质量电催化剂产生电池功率或电能来表示膜电极中电催化剂利用率的方法。     

Phytanic acid impairs mitochondrial respiration through protonophoric action

Refsum disease is a rare, inherited neurodegenerative disorder characterized by accumulation of the dietary branched-chain fatty acid phytanic acid in plasma and tissues caused by a defect in the alphaoxidation pathway. The accumulation of phytanic acid is believed to be the main pathophysiological cause of the disease. However, the exact mechanism(s) by which phytanic acid exerts its toxicity have not been resolved. In this study, the effect of phytanic acid on mitochondrial respiration was investigated. The results show that in digitonin-permeabilized fibroblasts, phytanic acid decreases ATP synthesis, whereas substrate oxidation per se is not affected. Importantly, studies in intact fibroblasts revealed that phytanic acid decreases both the mitochondrial membrane potential and NAD(P)H autofluorescence. Taken together, the results described here show that unesterified phytanic acid exerts its toxic effect mainly through its protonophoric action, at least in human skin fibroblasts.

Effect of volatile anesthetics on the circular dichroism of bilirubin bound to human serum albumin

The characteristic circular dichroism of bilirubin bound to human serum albumin undergoes a remarkable sign inversion on addition of halothane, chloroform and other volatile anesthetics. This sign inversion, which is completely reversed by removal of the anesthetic, reflects a pronounced conformational change of the bound ligand; probably a complete inversion of chirality. The observation suggests that association of volatile anesthetics with proteins can markedly alter the internal topography of receptor sites and potentially influence the stereoselectivity of ligand binding.     

Growth hormone signal transduction

Growth hormone (GH) promotes animal growth by stimulating bone and cartilage cell proliferation, and influences carbohydrate and lipid metabolism. Some of these effects are brought about indirectly via somatomedin induction in hepatocytes, others by acting directly on the target cells. In either case, GH first binds to specific receptors on cells to trigger a sequence of biochemical events culminating in a biological response. Recently much has been learnt about the molecular structure of GH receptor, its binding to ligand, and the ensuing signal transduction events.
