Abstract
MicroRNAs (MiRNAs) belong to a class of small non-coding regulatory RNAs that act through repression of protein expression at post-transcriptional level and emerge to play important roles in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. MiR-146a is a miRNA supposed to regulate innate immune, inflammatory response and antiviral pathway negatively. In this review, we focus on the recent progress in functional role of miR-146a in innate immune, inflammatory response, virus infection and human diseases. Together, these findings indicate that manipulation of miR-146a expression may represent a potential new therapy for several human diseases. Potential use of miR-146a as a biomarker for disease diagnosis, prevention and treatment is also discussed.

Abstract
The initial growth stage of the single-crystalline Sb and Co nanowires with preferential orientation was studied, which were synthesized in porous anodic alumina membranes by the pulsed electrodeposition technique. It was revealed that the initial growth of the nanowires is a three-dimensional nucleation process, and then gradually transforms to two-dimensional growth via progressive nucleation mechanism, which resulting in a structure transition from polycrystalline to single crystalline. The competition among the nuclei inside the nanoscaled-confined channel and the growth kinetics is responsible for the structure transition of the initial grown nanowires.

Abstract
We report results from a search for production of a neutral Higgs boson in association with a b quark. We search for Higgs decays to tau pairs with one tau subsequently decaying to a muon and the other to hadrons. The data correspond to 2.7 fb(-1) of pp collisions recorded by the D0 detector at square root(s)=1.96 TeV. The data are found to be consistent with background predictions. The result allows us to exclude a significant region of parameter space of the minimal supersymmetric model.

Abstract
A novel method is proposed to fabricate micro Diffractive Optical Elements (DOE) using micro cutting tools shaped with focused ion beam (FIB) milling. Micro tools with nanometric cutting edges and complicated shapes are fabricated by controlling the tool facet's orientation relative to the FIB. The tool edge radius of less than 30 nm is achieved for the nano removal of the work materials. Semi-circular micro tools and DOE-shaped micro tools are developed to fabricate micro-DOE and sinusoidal modulation templates. Experiments show that the proposed method can be a high efficient way in fabricating micro-DOE with nanoscale surface finishes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies have reported that homocysteine (Hcy) is associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a neurodegenerative disease without special biomarkers for early diagnosis. Here, we examined the levels of Hcy, folic acid and its metabolic molecule 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) in SOD1(G93A) transgenic mouse model of ALS in an attempt to determine whether the change in those molecules can be used as potential biomarkers for the disease. METHODS According to the disease progression, SOD1(G93A) transgenic mice were divided into early stage group (30d); pre-symptom group (60d); symptom group (90d) and terminal stage group (120d). LC-MS/MS was used to measure the level of Hcy, folic acid and 5-MTHF in the plasma, spinal cord and cortex of the ALS transgenic SOD1(G93A) mice at different disease stages. Nissl staining was used to detect the motor neurons survival in the anterior horn of the spinal cord of the SOD1(G93A) mice. RESULTS In this study, we demonstrated that the level of 5-MTHF is significantly decreased in the plasma, spinal cord and cortex at the early stages of pre-symptomatic ALS transgenic SOD1(G93A) mice while folic acid is decreased at the middle to late stages of the disease. Furthermore, we found that the level of Hcy is markedly elevated after the motor symptoms appeared in the ALS mice. CONCLUSION Our study suggests that decreased 5-MTHF level may be a potential biomarker for the early stage of the disease in the ALS mice, which may warrant further validating study of 5-MTHF level in ALS patients.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose: Bone mass has been proposed as a biomarker of the cumulative exposure to calcium, vitamin D and endogenous and exogenous estrogens. Postmenopausal women with higher levels of bone mass have a decreased risk of colon cancer. No prior studies, however, have examined the role between bone mass and the risk of colon adenomas, which are precursor lesions that, if not removed, may lead to colon cancer.
Methods: We evaluated the potential association between bone mass, as measured by bone mineral density (BMD) using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), and colon adenomas in 167 patients who underwent colonoscopy screening at University Hospitals in Cleveland, Ohio.
Results: We found that women with a total body BMD exceeding 1.294 g/cm2 (third tertile) compared to those with a total body BMD less than 1.167 g/cm2 (first tertile) had a much lower risk of colon adenomas (OR = 0.10; 95% C.I.: 0.02-0.74; P = 0.02). Similarly, women with a total body BMD between 1.167 and 1.294 g/cm2 (second tertile) compared to those with a BMD less than 1.167 g/cm2 had a decreased risk for colon adenomas (OR = 0.15; 95% C.I.: 0.03-0.80; P = 0.03; p-trend = 0.01). Postmenopausal women with a total body BMD in the second and third highest tertiles combined compared to those in the first tertile also had a decreased risk of colon adenomas.
Conclusions: Our results show, for the first time, that bone mass, as measured by total body BMD, is inversely associated with colon adenomas in women, which suggests the mechanisms underlying the synergistic actions of calcium, vitamin D, estrogen exposure and other factors affecting BMD including exercise are key to preventing the development of colonic lesions, particularly among women.

Abstract
A search is performed for the standard model Higgs boson in 5.2 fb{-1} of pp collisions at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV, collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. The final state considered is a pair of b jets and large missing transverse energy, as expected from pp-->ZH-->nunubb production. The search is also sensitive to the WH-->lnubb channel when the charged lepton is not identified. For a Higgs boson mass of 115 GeV, a limit is set at the 95% C.L. on the cross section multiplied by branching fraction for [pp-->(Z/W)H](H-->bb) that is a factor of 3.7 larger than the standard model value, consistent with the factor of 4.6 expected.

Abstract
In this study, the fraction (P) from an aqueous extract of dried rose (Rosa rugosa) flowers was obtained by ethanol precipitation. P was chromatographed on DEAE-cellulose. The components retained on DEAE-cellulose were eluted with a linear gradient of 0–2 m NaCl solution. Two fractions, eluted at concentrations of 0.5 m NaCl and 1 m NaCl, respectively, were obtained. These two components were designated as P1 and P2, respectively. P1 was further purified using gel filtration on Sephadex G-200. P1 yielded two peaks, and the two components were designated as P1-a and P1-b, respectively. P1-a was a polysaccharide-peptide complex, and P1-b exhibited chemical properties of a condensed tannin as revealed by FTIR and NMR assay of carbohydrate and protein contents and HPLC-ESI-MS. The molecular masses of P1-a and P1-b were 150kDa and 8kDa, respectively. Both P1-a and P1-b possessed antioxidant activity, with the activity of P1-b higher than that of P1-a. This study demonstrated that different components from rose flowers exhibited antioxidant activity.

Abstract
We present the first search for an electrically charged resonance W' decaying to a WZ boson pair using 4.1 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron pp collider. The WZ pairs are reconstructed through their decays into three charged leptons (l=e, mu). A total of 9 data events is observed in good agreement with the background prediction. We set 95% C.L. limits on the W'WZ coupling and on the W' production cross section multiplied by the branching fractions. We also exclude W' masses between 188 and 520 GeV within a simple extension of the standard model and set the most restrictive limits to date on low-scale technicolor models.

Abstract
A search for the standard model Higgs boson is presented using events with two charged leptons and large missing transverse energy selected from 5.4 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity in pp collisions at square root(s) = 1.96 TeV collected with the D0 detector at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. No significant excess of events above background predictions is found, and observed (expected) upper limits at 95% confidence level on the rate of Higgs boson production are derived that are a factor of 1.55 (1.36) above the predicted standard model cross section at m(H) = 165 GeV.

Combination of Tevatron searches for the standard model Higgs boson in the W+W- decay mode. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2010; 104:061802. [PMID: 20366812 DOI: 10.1103/physrevlett.104.061802] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2010] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
We combine searches by the CDF and D0 Collaborations for a Higgs boson decaying to W+W-. The data correspond to an integrated total luminosity of 4.8 (CDF) and 5.4 (D0) fb(-1) of pp collisions at square root(s) = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. No excess is observed above background expectation, and resulting limits on Higgs boson production exclude a standard model Higgs boson in the mass range 162-166 GeV at the 95% C.L.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Paroxysmal kinesigenic choreoathetosis (PKC) is an autosomal dominant condition characterized by abnormal involuntary movements precipitated by sudden movement. The pericentromeric region of chromosome 16 has been linked to PKC by several reports. This study was to localize and identify PKC gene in four Chinese PKC families. METHODS Genetic linkage mapping with eight markers spanning chromosome 16p12-q13 was performed in 43 family members. Genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) scans were performed on four individuals in Family 1 in which infantile convulsion (IC) was co-inherited with PKC. RESULTS Individuals in Family 1 presented with both IC and paroxysmal choreoathetosis (ICCA), and Families 2, 3, and 4 presented only with PKC. Evidence for linkage was found with a maximum two-point LOD score of 4.89 for D16S690 (theta = 0.0) and a maximum multipoint LOD score was 5.34 between D16S3080 and D16S3136. Haplotype analysis showed the disease locus was between D16S3093 and D16S3057. A total of 84 SNPs spanned on 16q12.1-q13 was not segregated with the PKC phenotype, which defined an unlinked region from rs9933187 to rs8044753. Thus, the critical region of the PKC gene is across the pericentromeric region of chromosome 16, and most likely maps to a region of 20.5 Mb (6.2 cM) between D16S3093 and rs9933187 (16p11.2-q12.1). CONCLUSION The assignment of the locus for PKC to the pericentromeric region of chromosome 16 is confirmed and putatively narrowed in the present study.
