Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is the umbrella term for lipid signaling molecules that share structural homology and activate the family of LPA receptors. Farnesyl Pyrophosphate (FPP) is commonly known as an intermediate in the synthesis of steroid hormones; however, its function as a signaling lipid is beginning to be explored. FPP was recently shown to an activator of the G-protein coupled receptor 92 (also known as LPA5) of the calcium channel TRPV(3). The LPA receptors (including GPR92) are associated with the signal transduction of noxious stimuli, however, very little is known about the distribution of their signaling ligands (LPAs and FPP) in the brain. Here, using HPLC/MS/MS, we developed extraction and analytical methods for measuring levels of FPP and 4 species of LPA (palmitoyl, stearoyl, oleoyl and arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol-3 phosphate) in rodent brain. Relative distributions of each of the five compounds was significantly different across the brain suggesting divergent functionality for each as signaling molecules based on where and how much of each is being produced. Brainstem, midbrain, and thalamus contained the highest levels measured for each compound, though none in the same ratios while relatively small amounts were produced in cortex and cerebellum. These data provide a framework for investigations into functional relationships of these lipid ligands in specific brain areas, many of which are associated with the perception of pain. 相似文献

In this article, we present new samples of lamellar magnetic nanocomposites based on the self-assembly of a polystyrene-b-poly(n-butyl methacrylate) diblock copolymer synthesized by atom transfer radical polymerization. The polymer films were loaded with magnetic iron oxide nanoparticles covered with polystyrene chains grown by surface initiated-ATRP. The nanostructuration of the pure and magnetically loaded copolymer films on silicon was studied by atomic force microscopy, ellipsometry, neutron reflectivity and contact angle measurement. The present study highlights the strong influence of the copolymer extremity - driven itself by the choice of the ATRP chemical route - on the order of the repetition sequences of the blocks in the multi-lamellar films. In addition, a narrower distribution of the nanoparticles’ sizes was examined as a control parameter of the SI-ATRP reaction. 相似文献

Hyperbranched poly(amidoamine)s (PAMAMs), exhibiting various levels of hydrophilicity, were used as modifiers for melamine urea formaldehyde (MUF) adhesives. The modification was achieved either with or at expense of sodium hydroxide during the last pH adjustment. Their apparent co‐condensability was expected from the measured gel times and further proved using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy as well as 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR). Utilization of these structures as modifiers for MUF, which are frequently used in particleboards production, resulted in manifold advantages. Considering the economic point of view, their use is more practical and cheaper with respect to dendritic structures. Additionally, their application in finite quantities as final additives, either immediately before the final use or at the last stage of preparation, yielded considerable upgrading of the dry internal bond (IB) strength of the produced particleboards. The improvement was extended to the resistivity to hydrolytic degradation as revealed by the wet IB strength and thickness swelling. The results were explained on the light of an extensive investigation on the resins using thermomechanical analysis (TMA) while taking into account the relevant hydrophilicity and degree of branching of each hyperbranched structure.

Genetically engineered bioreporters are an excellent complement to traditional methods of chemical analysis. The application of fluorescence flow cytometry to detection of bioreporter response enables rapid and efficient characterization of bacterial bioreporter population response on a single-cell basis. In the present study, intrapopulation response variability was used to obtain higher analytical sensitivity and precision. We have analyzed flow cytometric data for an arsenic-sensitive bacterial bioreporter using an artificial neural network-based adaptive clustering approach (a single-layer perceptron model). Results for this approach are far superior to other methods that we have applied to this fluorescent bioreporter (e.g., the arsenic detection limit is 0.01 microM, substantially lower than for other detection methods/algorithms). The approach is highly efficient computationally and can be implemented on a real-time basis, thus having potential for future development of high-throughput screening applications. 相似文献

This paper presents a novel method for QRS detection in electrocardiograms (ECG). It is based on the S-Transform, a new time frequency representation (TFR). The S-Transform provides frequency-dependent resolution while maintaining a direct relationship with the Fourier spectrum. We exploit the advantages of the S-Transform to isolate the QRS complexes in the time–frequency domain. Shannon energy of each obtained local spectrum is then computed in order to localize the R waves in the time domain. 相似文献

In order to investigate drying mechanisms at different stages, the distribution of water within the ceramic green bodies at different scales has been examined. The experimental measurements, using a simple weighing technique and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), show that during the first stage of drying involving shrinkage the material is constituted of uniquely solid and water with no gradient in water content within the sample. Then, during the second stage of drying, significant differences of water content as a function of position appear. As a complement, at the grain scale, observations using environmental scanning electron microscopy were made giving useful information on the solid–liquid–gas interfaces in the near surface part of the green body. Finally, the gradients in the water distribution were exploited to make a simple estimate of the diffusion coefficient of water with its dependence on the moisture content. 相似文献

A rigorous full-wave analysis in the Fourier transform domain is carried out in order to obtain the resonant frequencies and
half-power bandwidths of the high T
c
superconducting rectangular microstrip patches over ground planes with rectangular apertures. To include the effect of the
superconductivity of the microstrip patch in the full-wave analysis, a complex surface impedance is considered. This impedance
is determined by using London’s equation and the two-fluid model of Gorter and Casimir. The validity of the solution is tested
by comparison of the computed results with previously published data. Variations of the resonant frequency with the high T
c
superconducting film thickness are presented. Results showing the effect of the temperature on the resonant frequency and
half-power bandwidth of the superconducting microstrip antenna with a rectangular aperture in the ground plane are also given.
Finally, a comparison between the efficiency of two antennas is presented. For the first antenna, YBCO patch with YBCO ground
plane are considered. For the second antenna, the patch and the ground plane are with copper. 相似文献
