Abstract
The contribution of B meson decays to nonphotonic electrons, which are mainly produced by the semileptonic decays of heavy-flavor mesons, in p + p collisions at √s=200 GeV has been measured using azimuthal correlations between nonphotonic electrons and hadrons. The extracted B decay contribution is approximately 50% at a transverse momentum of pT≥5 GeV/c. These measurements constrain the nuclear modification factor for electrons from B and D meson decays. The result indicates that B meson production in heavy ion collisions is also suppressed at high pT.

Abstract
Shedding of syncytiotrophoblast microparticles (MPs) from placenta to maternal blood occurs in normal pregnancy and is enhanced during preeclampsia (PE). The syncytiotrophoblast synthesizes plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAIs) which regulate fibrinolysis, as well as soluble forms of the fms-like tyrosine kinase (sFlt-1) and endoglin, which exert anti-angiogenic actions. An increase in the ratio of PAI-1/PAI-2 and elevated levels of sFlt-1 and sEng in maternal serum are linked to placental damage and maternal endothelial cell dysfunction in PE. The goal of the current study was to determine whether MPs released to maternal perfusate during dual perfusion contain these factors associated with placental pathophysiology in PE. Initially, high levels of alkaline phosphatase activity and Annexin V binding were found in MPs isolated by sequential centrifugation of maternal perfusates at 10,000 and 150,000×g(10 K and 150 K MPs), indicating their plasma membrane origin. ELISA revealed the presence of these factors at the following relative levels: Eng>PAI-2⋙PAI-1>sFlt-1. Based on comparisons of their concentration in perfusates, MPs, and MP-free 150 K supernatants, we determined that MPs constitute a significant portion of Eng released by placenta. Flow cytometric analysis of 10 K MPs supported the levels of expression found by ELISA and indicated that Eng and PAI-2 were almost exclusively localized to the surface of MPs, a site with biological potential. These results indicate that MPs shed from the syncytial surface express factors which may alter the fibrinolytic and angiogenic balance at the maternal-fetal interface and play a role in the pathophysiology of PE.

Abstract
We report the first measurements of the kurtosis (κ), skewness (S), and variance (σ2) of net-proton multiplicity (Np-Np) distributions at midrapidity for Au+Au collisions at square root of s(NN)=19.6, 62.4, and 200 GeV corresponding to baryon chemical potentials (μB) between 200 and 20 MeV. Our measurements of the products κσ2 and Sσ, which can be related to theoretical calculations sensitive to baryon number susceptibilities and long-range correlations, are constant as functions of collision centrality. We compare these products with results from lattice QCD and various models without a critical point and study the square root of s(NN) dependence of κσ2. From the measurements at the three beam energies, we find no evidence for a critical point in the QCD phase diagram for μB below 200 MeV.

Abstract
We report the first three-particle coincidence measurement in pseudorapidity (Δη) between a high transverse momentum (p⊥) trigger particle and two lower p⊥ associated particles within azimuth |Δϕ|<0.7 in square root of s(NN)=200 GeV d+Au and Au+Au collisions. Charge ordering properties are exploited to separate the jetlike component and the ridge (long range Δη correlation). The results indicate that the correlation of ridge particles are uniform not only with respect to the trigger particle but also between themselves event by event in our measured Δη. In addition, the production of the ridge appears to be uncorrelated to the presence of the narrow jetlike component.

Abstract
Parity-odd domains, corresponding to nontrivial topological solutions of the QCD vacuum, might be created during relativistic heavy-ion collisions. These domains are predicted to lead to charge separation of quarks along the system's orbital momentum axis. We investigate a three-particle azimuthal correlator which is a P even observable, but directly sensitive to the charge separation effect. We report measurements of charged hadrons near center-of-mass rapidity with this observable in Au + Au and Cu + Cu collisions at square root of s(NN) = 200 GeV using the STAR detector. A signal consistent with several expectations from the theory is detected. We discuss possible contributions from other effects that are not related to parity violation.

Abstract
HLA-G is a non-classical HLA-class Ib molecule with multiple immunoregulatory properties. A 14-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism in the HLA-G gene has been suggested to influence the expression of HLA-G and to associate with certain pathological conditions, including autoimmune diseases. We investigated the influence of the 14-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism in the HLA-G gene on disease susceptibility in systemic lupus erythematosus by genotyping this polymorphism in 231 patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and 367 healthy controls and analyzing the levels of soluble HLA-G in a subset of patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and healthy subjects from a Han Chinese population. No statistically significant differences were observed in the frequencies of the 14-bp insertion/deletion HLA-G alleles or genotypes between controls and patients with systemic lupus erythematosus. However, a significant increased expression of soluble HLA-G was noted in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (mean value = 230.2 U/ml vs 118.3 U/ml in controls, p = 0.0001). Moreover, patients with high levels of soluble HLA-G presented with higher disease activity and had more neurological involvement. Our results do not support the HLA-G 14-bp insertion/deletion polymorphism as a genetic factor influencing systemic lupus erythematosus susceptibility. It is possible that the expression of soluble HLA-G in systemic lupus erythematosus is enhanced as part of a mechanism to try to restore the tolerance process towards auto-antigens and to counteract inflammation. However, the participation of this molecule in the pathological process of the disease also could not be excluded. Lupus (2009) 18, 1259—1266.

Abstract
Forward-backward multiplicity correlation strengths have been measured with the STAR detector for Au + Au and p + p collisions at square root of s(NN) = 200 GeV. Strong short- and long-range correlations (LRC) are seen in central Au + Au collisions. The magnitude of these correlations decrease with decreasing centrality until only short-range correlations are observed in peripheral Au + Au collisions. Both the dual parton model (DPM) and the color glass condensate (CGC) predict the existence of the long-range correlations. In the DPM, the fluctuation in the number of elementary (parton) inelastic collisions produces the LRC. In the CGC, longitudinal color flux tubes generate the LRC. The data are in qualitative agreement with the predictions of the DPM and indicate the presence of multiple parton interactions.

Abstract
We report K/pi fluctuations from Au + Au collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]= 19.6, 62.4, 130, and 200 GeV using the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. K/pi fluctuations in central collisions show little dependence on incident energy and are on the same order as those from NA49 at the Super Proton Synchrotron in central Pb + Pb collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]=12.3 and 17.3 GeV. We report results for the collision centrality dependence of K/pi fluctuations and results for charge-separated fluctuations. We observe that the K/pi fluctuations scale with the charged particle multiplicity density.

Abstract
11008 Background: New oncology drug development has moved from general cytotoxic agents to molecular target-directed therapeutics. Consequently, there is a need to identify tumor types and individual patient tumors that express the target and could benefit from more selective therapies in clinical trials. Therefore, the in vivo models used in preclinical development should be“disease-oriented” and target-directed. Recently, we developed non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) xenograft models by transplanting human fresh tumor fragments into nude mice, which have been used for test of cytotoxic and targeted anticancer drugs. Methods: The fresh NSCLC tumors were collected from local hospitals. The tumor fragments were subcutaneously implanted into nude mice. The EGFR and K-ras mutation status of the tumors were investigated and compared with the efficacy results. The test drugs included paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitor erlotinib. Results: A total of 72 NSCLC samples were implanted, and 13 tumor models were established (tumor taking rate 18%) for the first passage. The tumor taking rates were higher in the second and third passages (80–100%). Paclitaxel and gemcitatbine produced tumor growth inhibition rates of 50–53% regardless of the EGFR and K-ras mutation status. While erlotinib demonstrated a significant antitumor activity only in the tumors bearing EGFR mutation with wild-type K-ras, which were consistent with their clinical findings. The tumor xenografts’ architecture, the cell and histopathological morphology from the three generations mirrored the original patient cancers. Conclusions: These results suggest that human primary tumor xenograft models provide a unique renewable source of tumor material for test of novel anticancer agents. They may predict more relevant clinical response rates and higher correlation with clinical findings than use of xenograft models established from long-term cultured cancer cell lines, especially for test of target-oriented therapeutics in new drugs development programs. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract
The allelopathic potential of an artificially applied allelochemical, benzoic acid, on in vitro Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. niveum (a soil-borne pathogen causing watermelon wilt) was evaluated. Benzoic acid strongly inhibited its growth, sporulation and conidia germination, whereas it stimulated virulence factors of this pathogen. The biomass was reduced by 83-96 % and the conidia germinating rate and conidia production rate were decreased by 100 % at a concentration of >200 mg/L. However, phytopathogenic enzyme activities and mycotoxin production were stimulated with an increase of 10.2-1250 % for enzyme activities and 610-2630 % for mycotoxin yield.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyze the clinicopathological characteristics of familial SLE patients with lupus nephritis (LN). A total of 136 Chinese patients with lupus nephritis diagnosed by renal biopsy, including 34 familial patients and 102 sporadic cases, were recruited. Their demographic information, age of onset, disease duration, clinical features, laboratory data and histological manifestations were compared. The first-degree relatives (17 sibling cases and eight parent-offspring cases) of familial SLE patients were primarily affected. The prevalence of fever, rash and arthritis in familial subjects was higher than that in sporadic subjects. Familial patients had lower platelet counts and higher low-density lipoprotein. In familial patients, class V lupus nephritis was less common. After adjusted with the Benjamini and Hochberg procedure, however, fever was the only feature occurring significantly and more frequently in familial patients (58.8% vs 26.5%, P = 0.001). Moreover, SLEDAI and other clinicopathological features did not differ significantly between the two groups. Multivariate analysis showed that a higher prevalence of fever was an independent predictor of familial SLE. Most clinicopathological features in familial SLE patients were not significantly different from those in sporadic patients; the severity of LN in familial SLE patients was similar to that of sporadic cases. Thus, familial SLE may not be a different clinical entity.

Abstract
A range of poly epsilon-caprolactone (PCL) films mixed/doped with poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) (65:35) in 0, 10, 20, and 30 wt % were produced, sterilized using ethylene oxide, and analyzed using FTIR. Characterized human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were cultured in contact with the materials in basal, chondrogenic, and osteogenic medium for time periods up to 28 days, to determine if the materials could induce differentiation of MSC both in the presence and absence of biological stimuli. Viable cell adhesion was analyzed under all conditions. Collagen I, collagen II, sox-9, osteocalcin, osteopontin, osteonectin, and CBFA1 were evaluated at both the mRNA (real-time PCR) and protein production levels (fluorescent immunohistochemistry) and used to identify cell differentiation. Pure PCL and PCL mixed with PLGA demonstrated a chondrogenic potential. Only PCL 8 (80 wt % PCL, 20 wt % PLGA) facilitated osteogenic differentiation of MSCs under osteogenic conditions. This was attributed to the increased hydrophilic nature of the surface allowing sufficient homogeneous cell attachment and the formation of filamentous F-actin in the cells, allowing osteogenic differentiation. Of all materials tested, PCL 7 (70 wt % PCL, 30 wt % PLGA) demonstrated the greatest chondrogenic differentiation potential under basal and stimulated conditions at both the mRNA and protein production level.
