알루미늄 분진폭발특성에 미치는 입경과 농도 변화에 따른 영향을 20 L 구형 분진폭발시험장치를 사용하여 실험적으로 조사하였다. 실험에 사용한 알루미늄 분진의 체적 평균 입경은 15.1 및 $34.8{\mu}m$이다. 실험결과, 평균 입경 $15.1{\mu}m$에서의 폭발하한농도(LEL)는 $40g/m^3$, 최대폭발압력($P_{max}$)은 9.8 bar, 폭발압력상승속도는 ($[dP/dt]_{max}$)는 1852 bar/s이었으며, 평균입경 $34.8{\mu}m$의 경우에는 LEL이 $70g/m^3$, $P_{max}$는 7.9 bar, $[dP/dt]_{max}$는 322 bar/s가 얻어졌다. Al분진의 폭발하한농도는 입경 증가에 따라 증가하는 경향이 관찰되었다. 또한 평균입경 $15.1{\mu}m$에서의 Al분진폭발압력으로부터의 화염전파속도의 계산값은 평균입경 $34.8{\mu}m$의 경우보다 5배의 크기를 나타내었다.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common types of cancers, as evidenced by the >1.2 million patient diagnoses and 600,000 mortalities globally each year. Recently, the microRNA (miR/miRNA)-34 miRNA precursor family was revealed to participate in the tumor protein (TP)-53 pathway, which is frequently involved in CRC. Furthermore, the expression of miR-34 is reportedly regulated by DNA methylation. Accordingly, the present study investigated the correlation between the methylation status of miR-34 miRNAs and miR-34 expression in paired CRC tumor and normal tissues. The methylation status of miR-34a and miR-34b/c was determined using the MethyLight assay, and the expression of miR-34a and miR-34b/c in the same paired tissues was analyzed by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The results revealed significantly elevated miR-34a (P=0.012) and miR-34b/c (P<0.0001) methylation levels in tumor tissues when compared with normal tissues, whereas only the expression of miR-34b/c differed (P=0.005) between the paired tissues. In addition, an association between TP53 haplotypes and miR-34 family expression levels was observed. The miR-34a methylation levels in the TP53 PIN A1A1 (48.56±36.49) and TP53 MSP GG (49.00±36.44) genotypes were increased in the tumor tissues when compared with normal tissues. In conclusion, it was determined that miR-34 promoter methylation and TP53 polymorphisms may be associated with CRC pathogenesis.

Background: Pyogenic granuloma is a common non-neoplastic connective tissue proliferation. ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are vascular adhesion molecules and CD34 is a marker for evaluation of angiogenesis. The purpose of this study was to compare the immunohistochemical expression of ICAM-1, VCAM-1 & CD34 in oral pyogenic granuloma and normal gingiva. Materials and Methods: This study was performed on thirty five formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded samples of gingival pyogenic granuloma. Also we used thirty five paraffined blocks of normal gingiva as control group which were taken from crown lengthening surgery. We employed immunohistochemistry staining for our prepared microscopic slides using monoclonal mouse anti-human antibodies against ICAM-1 (CD54), VCAM-1 (CD106) and CD34. Slides were examined under light microscope and then the mean amount of stained vessels also known as microvascular density (MVD) in highly vascularized areas (hot spots) was measured. Paired t-test and repeated measures ANOVA were used to compare the difference between quantitative variables and Chi-square test for qualitative variables in different groups. Pearson correlation coefficient was used to compare relations between quantitative variables. P<0.05 was considered significant. Results: The mean of MVD for ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and CD34 was significantly higher in pyogenic granuloma than normal gingiva (p<0.001 & p<0.001 & p<0.001, respectively). Expression of CD34 in pyogenic granuloma was significantly higher than ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 (P<0.001). Besides, expression of ICAM-1 in normal gingiva, was significantly lower than two other markers (p<0.001). Conclusions: Regarding the results, it seems that ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and CD34 are useful biomarkers in evaluation of vascular and inflammatory lesions such as gingival pyogenic granuloma and the results indicate the role of these biomarkers in pathogenesis of oral pyogenic granuloma.

Purpose: Periodontal diseases are inflammatory conditions that alter the host's response to microbial pathogens. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex disease that affects the incidence and severity of periodontal diseases. This study investigated the gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) levels of colony-stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) and interleukin-34 (IL-34) in patients with stage III grade C periodontitis (SIII-GC-P) and stage III grade C periodontitis with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (SIII-GC-PD). Methods: In total, 72 individuals, including 24 periodontally healthy (PH), 24 SIII-GC-P, and 24 SIII-GC-PD patients, were recruited for this study. Periodontitis patients (stage III) had interdental attachment loss (AL) of 5 mm or more, probing depth (PD) of 6 mm or more, radiographic bone loss advancing to the middle or apical part of the root, and tooth loss (<5) due to periodontal disease. Radiographic bone loss in the teeth was also evaluated; grade C periodontitis was defined as a ratio of the percentage of root bone loss to age greater than 1.0. The plaque index (PI), gingival index (GI), presence of bleeding on probing (BOP), PD, and clinical AL were used for clinical periodontal assessments. GCF samples were obtained and analyzed using an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results: All clinical parameters-PD, AL, GI, BOP, and PI-were significantly higher in the SIII-GC-PD group than in the PH and SIII-GC-P groups for both the full mouth and each sampling site (P<0.05). The total IL-34 and CSF-1 levels were significantly higher in the SIII-GC-PD group than in the PH and SIII-GC-P groups (P<0.05), and there were significant differences between the periodontitis groups (P<0.05). Conclusions: These findings suggest that IL-34 and CSF-1 expression increases in patients with SIII-GC-PD. CSF-1 was associated with the inflammatory status of periodontal tissues and T2DM, while IL-34 was associated only with T2DM.

1H NMR spectra of pyridine, α-, β-, and γ-picoline coordinated to the paramagnetic heteropolyanion [Ni3(PW9O34)2]12- (P2Ni3) are reported. NMR lines are assigned to [Ni3(ptl)n(PW9O34)2]12- (n=1, 2 or 3; ptl=pyridine-type ligand) on the basis of their [P2Ni3]/[ptl] dependence. The formation constants for γ-picoline complexes at 25 ℃ are K1=80, K2=610, and K3=190 L mol-1. The monopicoline complex has greater affinity for γ-picoline than P2Ni3. A degradation product, [Ni2(WO2)(PW9O34)2]12-, was also identified at low pH by measuring the NMR spectrum of pyridine coordinated to it. The isotropic NMR shifts come mainly from the contact interaction due to σ-electron delocalization.

Little attention has been paid to the specificity between E2 and the target protein during ubiquitination, although RING-E3 induces a potential intra-molecular reaction by mediating the direct transfer of ubiquitin from E2 to the target protein. We have constructed artificial E2 fusion proteins in which a target protein (p27) is tethered to one of six E2s via a flexible linker. Interestingly, only three E2s (UbcH5b, hHR6b, and Cdc34) are able to ubiquitinate p27 via an intra-molecular reaction in this system. Although the first ubiquitination of p27 (p27-Ub) by Cdc34 is less efficient than that of UbcH5b and hHR6b, the additional ubiquitin attachment to p27-Ub by Cdc34 is highly efficient. The E2 core of Cdc34 provides specificity to p27, and the residues 184-196 are required for possessive ubiquitination by Cdc34. We demonstrate direct E2 specificity for p27 and also show that differential ubiquitin linkages can be dependent on E2 alone.
