Features of structure, magnetic state and electrodynamic performance of SrFe12-xInxO19

Indium-substituted strontium hexaferrites were prepared by the conventional solid-phase reaction method. Neutron diffraction patterns were obtained at room temperature and analyzed using the Rietveld methods. A linear dependence of the unit cell parameters is found. In³⁺ cations are located mainly in octahedral positions of 4f_VI and 12 k. The average crystallite size varies within 0.84–0.65 μm. With increasing substitution, the T_C Curie temperature decreases monotonically down to ~ 520 K. ZFC and FC measurements showed a frustrated state. Upon substitution, the average and maximum sizes of ferrimagnetic clusters change in the opposite direction. The M_r remanent magnetization decreases down to ~ 20.2 emu/g at room temperature. The M_s spontaneous magnetization and the k_eff effective magnetocrystalline anisotropy constant are determined. With increasing substitution, the maximum of the ε^/ real part of permittivity decreases in magnitude from ~ 3.3 to ~ 1.9 and shifts towards low frequencies from ~ 45.5 GHz to ~ 37.4 GHz. The maximum of the tg(α) dielectric loss tangent decreases from ~ 1.0 to ~ 0.7 and shifts towards low frequencies from ~ 40.6 GHz to ~ 37.3 GHz. The low-frequency maximum of the μ^/ real part of permeability decreases from ~ 1.8 to ~ 0.9 and slightly shifts towards high frequencies up to ~ 34.7 GHz. The maximum of the tg(δ) magnetic loss tangent decreases from ~ 0.7 to ~ 0.5 and shifts slightly towards low frequencies from ~ 40.5 GHz to ~ 37.7 GHz. The discussion of microwave properties is based on the saturation magnetization, natural ferromagnetic resonance and dielectric polarization types.

Multiharmonic Correlations of Different Flow Amplitudes in Pb-Pb Collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=2.76 TeV

The event-by-event correlations between three flow amplitudes are measured for the first time in Pb-Pb collisions, using higher-order symmetric cumulants. We find that different three-harmonic correlations develop during the collective evolution of the medium when compared to correlations that exist in the initial state. These new results cannot be interpreted in terms of previous lower-order flow measurements since contributions from two-harmonic correlations are explicitly removed in the new observables. A comparison to Monte Carlo simulations provides new and independent constraints for the initial conditions and system properties of nuclear matter created in heavy-ion collisions.

Role of tight junction-associated MARVEL protein marvelD3 in migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition of hepatocellular carcinoma

MarvelD3, a recently identified tight junction membrane protein, could be associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). We aimed to investigate the role of marvelD3 in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) and migration of HCC and explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. First, we assessed marvlD3 expression in HCC and normal liver tissues and found loss of marvelD3 expression was significantly correlated with the occurrence and TNM stage of HCC. Second, we detected that marvelD3 was downregulated in HCC cells with transforming growth factor β1 and snail/slug-induced EMT. Finally, we analyzed expression of marvelD3 protein was significantly associated with EMT and the NF-κB signaling pathway. Our study demonstrated that MarvelD3 inhibited EMT and migration of HCC cells along with inhibiting NF-κB signaling pathway.Abbreviations: HCC, Hepatocellular carcinoma; TJ, Tight junction; MARVEL, MAL and related proteins for vesicle trafficking and membrane link; EMT, Epithelial-mesenchymal transition; NF-κB, Nuclear factor kappa B; TAMPs, Tight junction-associated marvel proteins; TGF-β1, Transforming growth factor-β1; MMP9, matrix metallopeptidase 9; RT-PCR, Real-time PCR; IHC, Immunohistochemistry; IF, Immunofluorescence.

Gendered Citation Practices in the Field of Communication

In disciplines outside of communication, papers with women as first and last (i.e., senior) authors attract fewer citations than papers with men in those positions. Using data from 14 communication journals from 1995 to 2018, we find that reference lists include more papers with men as first and last author, and fewer papers with women as first and last author, than would be expected if gender were unrelated to referencing. This imbalance is driven largely by the citation practices of men and is slowly decreasing over time. The structure of men's co-authorship networks partly accounts for the observed over-citation of men by other men. We discuss ways researchers might approach gendered citations in their work.

Soft-Dielectron Excess in Proton-Proton Collisions at sqrt[s]=13 TeV

A measurement of dielectron production in proton-proton (pp) collisions at sqrt[s]=13  TeV, recorded with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC, is presented in this Letter. The data set was recorded with a reduced magnetic solenoid field. This enables the investigation of a kinematic domain at low dielectron (ee) invariant mass m_{ee} and pair transverse momentum p_{T,ee} that was previously inaccessible at the LHC. The cross section for dielectron production is studied as a function of m_{ee}, p_{T,ee}, and event multiplicity dN_{ch}/dη. The expected dielectron rate from hadron decays, called hadronic cocktail, utilizes a parametrization of the measured η/π^{0} ratio in pp and proton-nucleus collisions, assuming that this ratio shows no strong dependence on collision energy at low transverse momentum. Comparison of the measured dielectron yield to the hadronic cocktail at 0.15<m_{ee}<0.6  GeV/c^{2} and for p_{T,ee}<0.4  GeV/c indicates an enhancement of soft dielectrons, reminiscent of the "anomalous" soft-photon and soft-dilepton excess in hadron-hadron collisions reported by several experiments under different experimental conditions. The enhancement factor over the hadronic cocktail amounts to 1.61±0.13(stat)±0.17(syst,data)±0.34(syst,cocktail) in the ALICE acceptance. Acceptance-corrected excess spectra in m_{ee} and p_{T,ee} are extracted and compared with calculations of dielectron production from hadronic bremsstrahlung and thermal radiation within a hadronic many-body approach.

[Clinical diagnosis and treatment analysis of 553 cases of acoustic neuroma in a single center]

Objective: To explore the relationship between microsurgery and prognosis of acoustic neuroma. Methods: A total of 553 acoustic neuroma surgical cases admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January 1, 1986 to September 30, 2016, were collected retrospectively. They were divided into 1986-1995 group, 1996-2005 group, and 2006-2016 group. The general information, tumor size, preoperative hospital stay, total hospital stay, operation time, intraoperative blood transfusion, use of neuroelectrophysiological monitoring, internal auditory canal wall grinding, tumor resection degree, postoperative facial nerve function rating (House-Brackmann grading), discharge status, and quality of life assessment KPS of patients were statistically analyzed. Results: Compared with the 1986-1995 group and the 1996-2005 group, the average age of patients in the 2006-2016 group ((52.9±13.3) years) was larger but the overall tumor volume ((3.7±0.8) cm) was smaller, and preoperative hospital stay ((4.9±1.9) days), the total hospital stay ((19.4±6.4) days) was significantly reduced, the operation time ((4.6±1.0) hours) was shortened, the intraoperative blood transfusion rate (18.5%) was significantly reduced, the intraoperative neuroelectrophysiological monitoring utilization rate (8.9%), and the internal auditory canal rate (12.7%) was higher. While increasing the tumor total resection and near total resection rate (89.2%), it further improved the postoperative facial nerve function retention rate (71.5%), and significantly increased the discharge cure rate (88.5%) (P<0.05). At the same time, the postoperative quality of life assessment good rate (KPS≥60 points) and excellent rate (KPS≥80 points) of the patients in the 2006-2016 group increased significantly, reaching 94.2% and 45.8% (P<0.05). Conclusion: The maturity of microsurgery techniques and the use of intraoperative neuroelectrophysiological monitoring can shorten the treatment cycle of patients with acoustic neuroma, increase the tumor resection rate and postoperative facial nerve function retention rate, and effectively improve the quality of life of patients after surgery.

[Inhibitory effect of Xinhui citrus fermentation liquor on liver fibrosis in mice]

OBJECTIVE

To investigate the inhibitory effect of Xinhui citrus fermentation liquor on liver fibrosis in mice.

OBJECTIVE

Mouse models of liver fibrosis were established by intraperitoneal injection of CCl₄ in 105 male C57BL/6 mice, followed by gavage of 0.1 mL 40% CCl₄ olive oil 3 times a week (model group, n=49) or daily gavage of citrus liquor at the dose of 0.26 mL (citrus liquor group, n=56) for 8 weeks. Seven mice receiving only olive oil treatment (0.1 mL, 3 times a week) and another 7 treated with citrus liquor served as the control group. Liver tissues and serum samples were collected from 7 mice in the citrus liquor group and model group each week and from the mice in the two control groups at the 8th week for pathological examination of the liver tissues using HE staining and Sirius red staining and for determination of the biochemical indexes of liver function.

OBJECTIVE

The mice in the model group showed progressively worsened liver fibrosis with obvious hepatic steatosis, necrosis and inflammatory cell infiltration. These liver pathologies were much ameliorated in citrus liquor group, which showed significantly reduced vacuolation, inflammatory cell infiltration, collagen deposition and the Ishak score of the liver tissue (P < 0.05). Serum levels of cholyglycine, alanine aminotransferase, transglutaminase and alanine aminotransferase were all significantly lower in citrus liquor group than in the model group (P < 0.05).

OBJECTIVE

Xinhui citrus fermentation liquor has protective effect on the liver and can significantly ameliorate liver fibrosis in mice.

Elliptic Flow of Electrons from Beauty-Hadron Decays in Pb-Pb Collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02 TeV

The elliptic flow of electrons from beauty hadron decays at midrapidity (|y|<0.8) is measured in Pb-Pb collisions at sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02  TeV with the ALICE detector at the LHC. The azimuthal distribution of the particles produced in the collisions can be parametrized with a Fourier expansion, in which the second harmonic coefficient represents the elliptic flow, v_{2}. The v_{2} coefficient of electrons from beauty hadron decays is measured for the first time in the transverse momentum (p_{T}) range 1.3-6  GeV/c in the centrality class 30%-50%. The measurement of electrons from beauty-hadron decays exploits their larger mean proper decay length cτ≈500  μm compared to that of charm hadrons and most of the other background sources. The v_{2} of electrons from beauty hadron decays at midrapidity is found to be positive with a significance of 3.75  σ. The results provide insights into the degree of thermalization of beauty quarks in the medium. A model assuming full thermalization of beauty quarks is strongly disfavored by the measurement at high p_{T}, but is in agreement with the results at low p_{T}. Transport models including substantial interactions of beauty quarks with an expanding strongly interacting medium describe the measurement within uncertainties.

Tumor-derived exosomal miR-103a-2-5p facilitates esophageal squamous cell carcinoma cell proliferation and migration

OBJECTIVE

This study aimed to identify the different expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in the plasma derived exosomes of patients with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC).

PATIENTS AND METHODS

A total of 9 patients with ESCC and 9 patients with benign diseases were involved. miRNA sequencing was performed to screen differential expression of microRNAs in plasma exosomes between patients with ESCC and controls. The function of miRNA on proliferation and migration abilities was determined by CCK-8 analysis, wound scratch and transwell test. Predicted target genes were screened by databases and confirmed by RT-qPCR.

RESULTS

We identified a total of 10 miRNAs (7 upregulated and 3 downregulated) that were differentially expressed in plasma exosomes between patients with ESCC and control patients (fold change, FC ≥ 2.0 or ≤ -2.0, p ≤ 0.05) by miRNA sequencing. Ten miRNAs were detected by qRT-PCR to verify the results of the miRNA sequencing. MiR-103a-2-5p demonstrated the most significant differential expression in both exosomes of ESCC cell lines and plasma of patients as compared with control patients and was therefore selected for subsequent functional experiments. Overexpression of miR-103a-2-5p promoted proliferation and migration in TE-1 cells, whereas inhibition of miR-103a-2-5p suppressed proliferation and migration in KYSE-150 cells. Exosomes extracted from the cells transfected with miR-103a-2-5p mimics significantly increased the proliferation and migration of two ESCC cell lines. Two genes, CDH11 and NR3C1 were identified as predicted targets of miR-103a-2-5p by the bioinformatics tools TargetScan, MiRanda, and mirDIP and RT-qPCR.

CONCLUSIONS

Our results shed light on how exosomal miR-103a-2-5p can promote proliferation and migration of ESCC cells and may represent a potential target for ESCC therapies.

Evaluation of the probiotic and functional potential of Lactobacillus agilis 32 isolated from pig manure

Escherichia coli is a symbiotic bacterium in humans and animals and an important pathogen of humans and animals. Prevention and suppression of E. coli infection is of great concern. In this study, we isolated a strain of Lactobacillus agilis 32 from pig manure and evaluated its biological characteristics, and found that its bacterial survival rate was 25% after 4 h of treatment at pH 2, and under the condition of 0·5% bile concentration, its survival rate exceeds 30%. In addition, L. agilis 32 has a cell surface hydrophobicity of 77·8%, and exhibits 67·1% auto-aggregation and 63·2% aggregation with Enterotoxigenic E. coli 10 (ETEC 10). FITC fluorescence labelling showed that the fluorescence intensity of cecum was significantly higher than that of duodenum, jejunum or colon (P < 0·05), but no significant difference from ileum. Lactobacillus agilis 32 bacterial culture and CFS showed average inhibition zone diameters of 14·2 and 15·4 mm respectively. Lactobacillus agilis 32 CFS treatment can significantly reduce the pathogenicity of ETEC 10. These results show that L. agilis 32 is an active and potential probiotic, and it has a good antibacterial effect on ETEC10, which provides basic research for probiotics to prevent and treat intestinal diarrhoea pathogen infection.

MiR-223-3p inhibits inflammation and pyroptosis in monosodium urate-induced rats and fibroblast-like synoviocytes by targeting NLRP3

Down-regulated miR-223-3p was found in rheumatoid arthritis. This study aimed to further explore the level and role of miR-223-3p in gout arthritis (GA). After monosodium urate (MSU)-induced GA rat and fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLSs) models were established, the rat paw volume and gait score were documented and the FLSs were transfected with miR-223-3p mimic/inhibitor or NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) over-expression plasmids. The MiR-223-3p target was found through bioinformatics and the dual-luciferase reporter. The rat joint pathological damage was observed by hematoxylin and eosin staining. The levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and articular elastase in rats were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The viability and pyroptosis of FLSs were detected by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and flow cytometry. The expressions of miR-223-3p, NLRP3, cleaved caspase-1, IL-1β, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein (AS) and cleaved N-terminal gasdermin D (GSDMD) in FLSs or rat synovial tissues were detected by reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), immunofluorescence, Western blot or immunohistochemistry analysis. MSU increased the paw volume, gait score, inflammation in synovial tissues and increased the levels of IL-1β, TNF-α and articular elastase in rats. MSU decreased the viability and increased the pyroptosis of FLSs, up-regulated the expression of NLRP3, ASC, cleaved caspase-1, cleaved N-terminal GSDM, and IL-1β, and down-regulated miR-223-3p expression in synovial tissues of rat joints and FLSs. MiR-223-3p mimic reversed the effect of MSU on lowering cell viability, increasing pyroptosis in FLSs, while miR-223-3p inhibitor further enhanced the effect of MSU on FLSs. NLRP3 was a target of miR-223-3p. Also, NLRP3 over-expression reversed the effects of miR-223-3p on MSU-induced FLSs. MiR-223-3p inhibited pyroptosis in MSU-induced rats and FLSs by targeting NLRP3.

14-kDa phosphohistidine phosphatase is a potential therapeutic target for liver fibrosis

Liver fibrosis, a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, leads to liver damage, seriously threatening human health. In our previous study, we demonstrated that 14 kDa phosphohistidine phosphatase (PHP14) was upregulated in fibrotic liver tissue and involved in the migration and lamellipodia formation of hepatic stellate cells (HSCs). In this study, we evaluated PHP14 as a therapeutic target for liver fibrosis and investigated the mechanism by which it mediates liver fibrosis. AAV-shPhpt1 administration significantly attenuates CCl₄-induced liver fibrosis in mice. In particular, fibrosis-associated inflammatory infiltration was significantly suppressed after PHP14 knockdown. Mechanistically, PHP14 regulated macrophage recruitment, infiltration, and migration by affecting podosome formation of macrophages. Inhibition of PHP14 decreased the expression of the fibrogenic signature at the early stage of liver fibrogenesis and the activation of HSCs in vivo. Thus, PHP14 can be considered a potential therapeutic target for liver fibrosis.NEW & NOTEWORTHY PHP14 inhibition via adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene silencing could potently attenuate carbon tetrachloride (CCl₄)-induced liver fibrosis. PHP14 could regulate the migration of macrophages to the site of injury in vivo. PHP14 knockdown in vivo influenced the environment of fibrogenesis and relevant signaling pathways, subsequently affecting myofibroblast activation.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1B1 is a potential marker of colorectal tumors

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is common worldwide. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1B1 (ALDH1B1), a member of the ALDH1 family, serves as a biomarker for cancer stem cells. We hypothesized that ALDH1B1 expression is associated with colorectal tumors. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect ALDH1B1 expression across a commercial colorectal tissue microarray. The signal intensities of the positively stained tissues were expressed using the mean integrated optical density (mean IOD). We also analyzed ALDH1B1 mRNA expression in the Oncomine database. The associations between ALDH1B1 expression and CRC stage and prognosis were then evaluated using the web-based tools, GEPIA and UALCAN. Analysis of the tissue microarray revealed that the expression of ALDH1B1 was significantly higher in colorectal adenomas and colorectal adenocarcinoma (IOD/area values=0.117±0.070 and 0.168±0.0168, respectively) compared with normal and cancer-adjacent tissues (IOD/area values=0.051±0.028 and 0.068±0.053). For samples collected in the hospital, ALDH1B1 was highly expressed in the adenoma (IOD/area=0.103±0.054) and CRC (IOD/area=0.116±0.059) tissues compared with the cancer-adjacent tissues (IOD/area=0.066±0.024, p<0.05). The expression of ALDH1B1 in tissues from two resources was not found to be significantly associated with CRC stage. In Oncomine, ALDH1B1 mRNA expression was increased in the colorectal tumor tissues compared with the normal colorectal tissues (p=0.024) and its expression was independent of CRC stage and prognosis (p<0.05). Thus, while the protein and mRNA expression of ALDH1B1 suggests that it is a potential marker of colorectal tumors, its expression is independent of CRC stage and prognosis.

Effects of Folic Acid and Vitamin B12 Supplementation on Cognitive Impairment and Inflammation in Patients with Alzheimer's Disease: A Randomized, Single-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Trial

OBJECTIVES

To evaluate the combined action of folic acid and vitamin B12 supplementation on cognitive performance and inflammation in patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD).

DESIGN

This was a randomized, single-blind, placebo-controlled trial.

PARTICIPANTS

Patients (n=120) diagnosed clinically as probable AD and in stable condition from Tianjin Key Laboratory of Cerebrovascular and Neurodegenerative Diseases.

MEASUREMENTS

Individuals were randomly divided into the intervention group (n=60, folic acid 1.2 mg/d + vitamin B12 50 μg/d) and the placebo group (n=60). Cognitive performance, blood folate, vitamin B12, one carbon cycle metabolite, and inflammatory cytokine levels were measured at baseline and after 6 months. The data were analyzed using linear mixed models for repeated measures.

RESULTS

A total of 101 participants (51 in the intervention group and 50 in the placebo group) completed the trial. Folic acid plus vitamin B12 supplementation had a beneficial effect on the MoCA total scores (P=0.029), naming scores (P=0.013), orientation scores (P=0.004), and ADAS-Cog domain score of attention (P=0.008), as compared to those of the control subjects. Moreover, supplementation significantly increased plasma SAM (P<0.001) and SAM/SAH (P<0.001), and significantly decreased the levels of serum Hcy (P<0.001), plasma SAH (P<0.001), and serum TNFα (P<0.001) compared to in the control subjects.

CONCLUSIONS

Folic acid and vitamin B12 supplementation showed a positive therapeutic effect in AD patients who were not on a folic acid-fortified diet. The findings of this study help to delineate nutrient intervention as far as public health management for the prevention of dementia is concerned.

[Analysis of prognosis and risk factors of 730 patients with anterior communicating aneurysm]

Objective: To investigate the prognosis and risk factors of patients with anterior communicating aneurysm treated by aneurysm clipping or interventional embolization. Methods: The clinical data of 730 patients with anterior communicating aneurysm who underwent aneurysm clipping or interventional embolization in the department of neurosurgery, the first affiliated hospital of Soochow University from January 1999 to December 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The prognosis of patients in the clipping group from 1999 to 2008 and the clipping group from 2009 to 2018, the clipping group from 2009 to 2018 and the interventional group from 2009 to 2018 were compared respectively, and the risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients were statistically analyzed. Results: The rate of poor prognosis was 32.7% in the clipping group from 1999 to 2008, 21.3% in the clipping group from 2009 to 2018, and the rate of intraoperative aneurysm rupture and postoperative cerebral infarction was lower in the clipping group from 2009 to 2018 (P<0.05). There was no significant statistical difference in the prognosis between the clipping group and the interventional group from 2009 to 2018 (P>0.05). The results of multivariate analysis showed that preoperative Hunt-Hess grade, postoperative cerebral infarction and postoperative hemorrhage were the risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients (P<0.05). Conclusion: The prognosis of patients treated by clipping from 2009 to 2018 was significantly improved compared with that from 1999 to 2008. There was no significant difference in the prognosis between the clipping group and the interventional group from 2009 to 2018. Preoperative Hunt-Hess grading, postoperative cerebral infarction and postoperative hemorrhage were independent risk factors affecting the prognosis.

The effect of PD-1 expression on tumor-associated macrophage in T cell lymphoma

PURPOSE

Our study aimed to explore the programmed death 1 (PD-1) expression on tumor-associated macrophage (TAM) in T cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (T-NHL) and its relationship with lymphoma prognosis. The effect of PD-1 expression on the function of macrophages was also studied.

METHODS

Multispectral image quantitative analysis was applied for detecting PD-1 expression on macrophages in T cell lymphoma tissues. The Kaplan-Meier analysis was performed to evaluate the value of PD-1 expression of TAM in predicting the overall survival of T-NHL. PD-1 overexpression THP-1-derived macrophage was constructed and was cocultured with Jurkat cells to explore the effect of PD-1 on macrophage function.

RESULTS

In 17 T cell lymphoma cases, the 1-year overall survival rate was significantly lower in patients with higher PD-1 expression on TAMs (0.25 vs 0.86, p < 0.05). After co-cultured with Jurkat cells, classically activated (M1)-related markers on PD-1 overexpressed macrophages were significantly lower than those on controls, while the expressions of alternatively activated (M2) related markers were similar. The PD-1 overexpressed macrophages showed inhibited phagocytosis (4.42% vs 40.7%, p < 0.001) and increased IL-10 secretion (144.48 pg/ml vs 32.32 pg/ml, p < 0.001).

CONCLUSION

High PD-1 expression on TAMs in T-NHL may predict poor prognosis. The PD-1 overexpression of macrophages significantly inhibited polarization of M1 macrophages and phagocytosis, and more IL-10 was excreted. These changes may enhance the pro-tumor effects of tumor microenvironment.

Measurement of the Low-Energy Antideuteron Inelastic Cross Section

In this Letter, we report the first measurement of the inelastic cross section for antideuteron-nucleus interactions at low particle momenta, covering a range of 0.3≤p<4  GeV/c. The measurement is carried out using p-Pb collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon-nucleon pair of sqrt[s_{NN}]=5.02  TeV, recorded with the ALICE detector at the CERN LHC and utilizing the detector material as an absorber for antideuterons and antiprotons. The extracted raw primary antiparticle-to-particle ratios are compared to the results from detailed ALICE simulations based on the geant4 toolkit for the propagation of (anti)particles through the detector material. The analysis of the raw primary (anti)proton spectra serves as a benchmark for this study, since their hadronic interaction cross sections are well constrained experimentally. The first measurement of the inelastic cross section for antideuteron-nucleus interactions averaged over the ALICE detector material with atomic mass numbers ⟨A⟩=17.4 and 31.8 is obtained. The measured inelastic cross section points to a possible excess with respect to the Glauber model parametrization used in geant4 in the lowest momentum interval of 0.3≤p<0.47  GeV/c up to a factor 2.1. This result is relevant for the understanding of antimatter propagation and the contributions to antinuclei production from cosmic ray interactions within the interstellar medium. In addition, the momentum range covered by this measurement is of particular importance to evaluate signal predictions for indirect dark-matter searches.
