Mutations in the RNA exosome component gene EXOSC3 cause pontocerebellar hypoplasia and spinal motor neuron degeneration

RNA exosomes are multi-subunit complexes conserved throughout evolution and are emerging as the major cellular machinery for processing, surveillance and turnover of a diverse spectrum of coding and noncoding RNA substrates essential for viability. By exome sequencing, we discovered recessive mutations in EXOSC3 (encoding exosome component 3) in four siblings with infantile spinal motor neuron disease, cerebellar atrophy, progressive microcephaly and profound global developmental delay, consistent with pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 1 (PCH1; MIM 607596). We identified mutations in EXOSC3 in an additional 8 of 12 families with PCH1. Morpholino knockdown of exosc3 in zebrafish embryos caused embryonic maldevelopment, resulting in small brain size and poor motility, reminiscent of human clinical features, and these defects were largely rescued by co-injection with wild-type but not mutant exosc3 mRNA. These findings represent the first example of an RNA exosome core component gene that is responsible for a human disease and further implicate dysregulation of RNA processing in cerebellar and spinal motor neuron maldevelopment and degeneration.     

Frequent mutations of chromatin remodeling genes in transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC) is the most common type of bladder cancer. Here we sequenced the exomes of nine individuals with TCC and screened all the somatically mutated genes in a prevalence set of 88 additional individuals with TCC with different tumor stages and grades. In our study, we discovered a variety of genes previously unknown to be mutated in TCC. Notably, we identified genetic aberrations of the chromatin remodeling genes (UTX, MLL-MLL3, CREBBP-EP300, NCOR1, ARID1A and CHD6) in 59% of our 97 subjects with TCC. Of these genes, we showed UTX to be altered substantially more frequently in tumors of low stages and grades, highlighting its potential role in the classification and diagnosis of bladder cancer. Our results provide an overview of the genetic basis of TCC and suggest that aberration of chromatin regulation might be a hallmark of bladder cancer.     

基于管道配置的电液位置控制系统同步特性研究

针对径锻机一级先导缸电液位置控制系统同步精度低的问题,运用AMESim软件研究了第一类管道配置对径锻机一级先导缸电液位置控制系统同步特性的影响。研究发现:系统同步误差随着管道长度的增加而增大,且伴有波动现象,管道长度为3m时最大同步误差是管道长度为1m时的1.4倍;管道长度为1m时的最大同步误差为无管道时的1.1倍;管道材料的杨氏弹性模量越小,对应系统的同步误差越大。     

基于结构层贡献率的沥青路面抗车辙措施

采用环道试验及德国汉堡车辙试验方法,研究在中面层使用改性沥青对路面结构和组合结构抗车辙性能的影响,包括对结构层贡献率和对沥青层剪切流动变形的影响;探讨在中面层添加纤维对路面结构抗车辙能力的影响.研究结果表明:中面层使用改性沥青,能提高路面结构的整体抗车辙性能;使剪切流动变形由95.2%下降至84.4%;中面层变形贡献率达到60%以上,应该重视提高中面层的抗车辙能力;对于中面层采用普通沥青的结构,在中面层添加纤维可明显减少整个结构车辙深度,但对于中面层已采用改性沥青的结构,添加纤维减少车辙的效果不明显.

宽板坯凝固前沿轻压下率模型的研究

结合连铸坯凝固规律及轻压下技术改善铸坯中心偏析的冶金原理,建立宽板坯轻压下率理论模型。根据某厂连铸宽板坯实际生产条件,以传热模型计算的铸坯凝固温度数据作为轻压下率模型计算条件,分析拉速、浇注温度、坯壳凝固收缩特性对铸坯轻压下率的影响规律。结果表明,在相同的拉速和浇注温度条件下,铸坯轻压下率沿拉坯方向的分布总体呈减小趋势;拉速较高时的起始轻压下率小于拉速较低时对应的起始轻压下率;拉速与平均轻压下率呈线性递减关系:拉速每升高0.1m/min,平均轻压下率减小0.015mm/m;浇注温度越低,轻压下区起始轻压下率的值越高;浇注温度对平均轻压下率的影响较小,浇注温度每升高10℃,平均轻压下率仅减小0.002 5mm/m;铸坯外部凝固坯壳的收缩对整个轻压下区平均轻压下率的贡献量为20.4%～22.3%。

岩溶隧道衬砌水压力分布规律研究

长期以来隧道衬砌水压力问题，一直是人们争论的焦点。依托宜万铁路岩溶隧道工程，对不同防排水方式（即全封堵、堵排结合及排放方式）的隧道衬砌水压力分布规律进行研究，研究方法主要采用模型试验及现场测试方法，模型试验的比例尺为1∶16，试验台架可同时施加土压和水压。通过模型试验得出水压力分布规律：全封堵条件下衬砌背后水压力不能折减，注浆圈也不能有效减小水压力；隧道内排水后衬砌背后水压力明显减小，并随着排水量的增加，水压力基本成直线下降；相同排水量时，注浆效果越好，衬砌背后水压力减小越明显；隧道采用全排导方式时，衬砌仍承受一定的水压。由模型试验得出的水压分布规律的部分结论，在现场水压力测试中得到了验证。
