Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate quality characteristics and antioxidant effects on storage by temperature between new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom (Lentinula edodes GNA01) and button mushroom (Agaricus bisporus). Methods: Dewdrop Pine Mushroom and button mushroom were prepared at low storage temperature. Results: Weight loss increased with time, whereas the new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom showed a decrease of less than 4% until 15days. Hardness of new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom was reduces less than button mushroom during storage. Color change of new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom was not altered during storage. For viable cell count, new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom proliferated less than button mushroom. For antioxidant activity, polyphenol content increased with storage period of both mushrooms. The electron-donating action of new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom maintained high antioxidant activity accounting for 80% until 12 days of storage. New cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom was evaluated as better than pine mushroom as it exceeded the middle of storage in sensory characteristics; such as appearance, color, aroma and overall acceptability, etc. Conclusion: In summary, new cultivar Dewdrop Pine Mushroom was stored for 12 days while button mushroom was stored for 9 days.

A model for reflection and refraction of magneto-thermoelastic SV-waves at the interface of two transversely isotropic and homogeneous solid half spaces under initial stress by applying classical dynamical theory of thermoelasticity is purposed. The reflection and refraction coefficients of SV-waves are obtained with ideal boundary conditions for SV-wave incident on the solid-solid interface. The effects of magnetic field, temperature and initial stress on the amplitude ratios after numerical computations are shown graphically with MATLAB software for the particular model.

Purpose: Here, we verified that the actin cytoskeletal gene expression of human gingival fibroblasts was altered by the administration of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF) using the nano-controlled releasing system. Materials and methods: The control and experimental groups were divided into 3 groups: the group with the TCA-only nano-controlled releasing system (EXP1), the group with the TCA- and EGF nano-controlled releasing system (EXP2), and the control group (CON) with 48-h incubation. Expression of 26 genes involved in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton were analyzed by real-time PCR followed by the determination of correlations and influential factors using the Pearson correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis. Results: Among 23 genes upregulated in EXP1 and EXP2, expression of 14 genes were significantly increased in EXP2 compared to EXP1. On the other hand, LPAR1 was downregulated only in EXP1, GNA13 was upregulated only in EXP2, and F2R was downregulated only in EXP2. Three Rac1-related genes and CDC42 were identified as the influential factors of the actin gene upregulation. Conclusion: The actin cytoskeleton genes in human gingival fibroblast were upregulated by the administration of TCA and EGF using HGC-based nano-controlled releasing system.

With the advancement of big data analysis, artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc., data analytics technology has developed to help with optimal decision-making. However, in certain areas, the lack of data restricts the use of these techniques. For example, real estate related data often have a long release cycle because of its recent release or being a non-liquid asset. In order to overcome these limitations, we studied the scalability of the existing time series through the TimeGAN model. A total of 45 time series related to weekly real estate data were collected within the period of 2012 to 2021, and a total of 15 final time series were selected by considering the correlation between the time series. As a result of data expansion through the TimeGAN model for the 15 time series, it was found that the statistical distribution between the real data and the extended data was similar through the PCA and t-SNE visualization algorithms.

Immunization has been performed for centuries and is generally accepted as a sustainable method of controlling bacteria, viruses, and mediated and infectious diseases. Despite many studies having been performed on animal subjects to demonstrate the importance of toxin immunity, the use of toxoid vaccines in humans and animals has been limited for a long time. Recently, the development of the toxoid antigen delivery system has been facilitated using novel nano-medicinal technology. The micro/nano-carrier has been used to improve vaccination coverage as well as reduce vaccine costs. A micro/nano-carrier is a micro/nano-sized material that delivers immune cargo, including recombinant or peptide toxoid antigens. These toxoid antigens are either encapsulated in the interior or displayed on the surface of micro/nano-carriers as a way to protect them from the cellular machinery. In particular, the combination of toxoid antigens and micro/nano-carriers can induce phagocytosis through the specific interactions between GCs and macrophages; thus, the toxoid antigens can be delivered easily into the macrophages. This paper reviews recent achievements of micro/nano-carriers in the field of vaccine delivery systems such as microbial ghost cells (GCs, Bacterial ghost cells and Yeast ghost cells), gene-manipulated outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) and biocompatible, polymer-based nanoparticles (NPs, NP-Carrier and NP-Cage). Finally, this review shows various aspects in terms of the hosts' immune responses.
