  • MG53 is a member of the TRIM-family protein that acts as a key component of the cell membrane repair machinery. MG53 is also an E3-ligase that ubiquinates insulin receptor substrate-1 and controls insulin signaling in skeletal muscle cells. Since its discovery in 2009, research efforts have been devoted to translate this basic discovery into clinical applications in human degenerative and metabolic diseases. This review article highlights the dual function of MG53 in cell membrane repair and insulin signaling, the mechanism that underlies the control of MG53 function, and the therapeutic value of targeting MG53 function in regenerative medicine.

  • In this paper, the train resistances for HSR-350x(Korean High Speed Train project), which has been obtained by the coast-down test, have been proposed in cases of the open field and tunnel. They are approximated as quadratic functions suggested by the Davis equation. The coast-down simulations for HSR-350x using the estimated train resistances have performed and the results have been compared with those of the same conditions of the coast-down tests. It is concluded that the proposed train resistances can be considered to provide good estimations for HSR-350x. Also, the effects of the infrastructure conditions, such as tracks, curves and tunnels have been reviewed. These results show that the tunnel plays an important role in determining the train resistance but others does not.

  • The simulation of the air flow over models in atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel is a research region based on advanced scientific technologies imposed by the necessity of studying the turbulent fluid dynamics in the proximity of the Earth's surface. In this study, the atmospheric boundary layer wind tunnel of UCD is used, the mean velocities are measured by augmentation devices such as roughness blocks and spires. The experimental results of mean velocity profile are well fitted with the value of power law.

  • Although Serkowski used a single value K=1.15 in representing all the observed interstellar linear polarization curves by his empirical relation $p({\lambda})/P_{max}$=exp (-K $1n^2({\lambda}_{max}/{\lambda})$), where $p_{max}$ is the maximum polarization at wavelength ${\lambda}_{max}$, we have noticed a meaningful variation in K from observations of 72 stars. By comparing K's with $P_{max}/E_{B-V}\;and\;with\;{\lambda}_{max}$, we have examined how the shape of the polarization curve is related with the degree of grain alignment on one hand, and with grain sizes on the other. We have shown that correlations between K, $P_{max}/E_{B-V}\;and\;with\;{\lambda}_{max}$, are consistent with the idea of Davis-Greenstein mechanism for grain alignment.

  • Surface tension is a major factor in the thermodynamics as well as fluid properties of Magneto-Rheological Fluids (MRF). We measured the surface tension of an MRF using two different methods. A wettability characterization based on contact angles measurements for the fluid interacting with two different surfaces was conducted. A hydrocarbon based commercial MRF with more than 80% solid weight, placed on quartz and poly-tetra-fluoroethylene (PTFE) surfaces was used. We measured the fluids' surface tension value by means of contact angles measurements and by the falling drop method.

  • Davis-Chandrasekhar-Fermi (DCF) method is a tool that is widely used to obtain the strength of the mean magnetic field projected on the plane of the sky. When there are independent eddies along the line of sight, the variation of polarization angle will decrease by the averaging effect. Therefore, the measured strength of the magnetic field can be overestimated. Cho & Yoo (2016) proposed a modified DCF method considering such effect. By using this, we quantitatively compared the results from the conventional DCF and the modified DCF methods for various sonic Mach numbers and driving schemes (the solenoidal and compressive driving). Here, we present that the modified DCF method does not show a strong dependence on the sonic Mach number or driving schemes either, while the conventional DCF method depends on the sonic Mach number for the compressive driving scheme.
