Abstract
The renaissance of cell- or organism-based phenotypic assays has made subsequent target identification for bioactive small organic molecules an important aspect of current drug discovery. Among the many strategies available for target identification, derivatizing bioactive small molecules into activity-based probes has the main advantage of determining small molecule-protein interactions directly in the native environment where the target proteins maintain their three-dimensional structures, including all the post-translational modifications, as the discrete small molecular probes usually have better access to intracellular compartments. Thus this chemical platform will not only afford a more precise means of understanding the mechanisms of action for bioactive molecules, but shed light onto the specificity of the bioactive small molecules. Here we will provide an overview of the strategies for the design of activity-based small molecular probes and review their applications for target identification using case studies. Special emphasis is placed on logistic concerns for probe's design as well as recent developments in this field.

Abstract
A molecular thermodynamic model is developed to predict DNA melting in ionic and crowded solutions. Each pair of nucleotides in the double-stranded DNA and each nucleotide in the single-stranded DNA are respectively represented by two types of charged Lennard-Jones spheres. The predicted melting curves and melting temperatures T(m) of the model capture the general feature of DNA melting and match fairly well with the available simulation and experimental results. It is found that the melting curve is steeper and T(m) is higher for DNA with a longer chain. With increasing the fraction of the complementary cytosine-guanine (CG) base pairs, T(m) increases almost linearly as a consequence of the stronger hydrogen bonding of the CG base pair than that of adenine-thymine (AT) base pair. At a greater ionic concentration, T(m) is higher due to the shielding effect of counterions on DNA strands. It is observed that T(m) increases in the presence of crowder because the crowder molecules occupy a substantial amount of system volume and suppress the entropy increase for DNA melting. At a given concentration, a larger crowder exhibits a greater suppression for DNA melting and hence a higher T(m). At the same packing fraction, however, a smaller crowder leads to a higher T(m).

Abstract
The objective of this study is to investigate the risk of esophageal carcinoma in a cohort with long-term occupational exposure to sodium nitrite. The method used was a retrospective cohort study. A small wood screw manufacturer was founded in 1977 and closed down in 2000. In their production process, the sodium nitrite solution was used to serve as anticorrosive and coolant fluid. One hundred sixty workers in turning and milling shops had direct exposure to sodium nitrite through skin, mouth, and airway because of lack of occupational protective knowledge (study group), whereas 255 workers from other workshops without direct contact with sodium nitrite served as control group. The incidence, diagnosis, and treatment of esophageal carcinoma as well as other malignant tumors in these two groups were followed until the end of 2007. The sodium nitrite exposure time in the study group ranged from 16 to 23 years, with an average of 22.1 years. During 30 years of follow-up, there were 11 esophageal carcinomas and 10 other malignant tumors (4 hepatic cell carcinomas, 3 lung cancers, 2 breast cancers, and 1 leukemia) documented in the study group, while no cancer developed in the control group. The risk for esophageal carcinoma was significantly increased in the study group compared with the control group (relative risk = 1.26, 95% confidence interval = 1.08-1.46, chi-square = 116.83, P < 0.001). Long-term exposure to sodium nitrite markedly increases the risk of esophageal carcinoma in human body.

Abstract
Identification of lobar fissures in human lungs is a non-trivial task due to their variable shape and appearance, along with the low contrast and high noise in computed tomographic (CT) images. Pathologies in the lungs can further complicate this identification by deforming and/or disrupting the lobar fissures. Current algorithms rely on the general anatomy of the lungs to find fissures affected by pathologies. This can be unreliable as deformations and/or disruptions of these fissures will alter the general lung anatomy. To overcome this, we developed an algorithm with the following novelties: (1) a new application of neural network based texture analysis to generalize fissure regions; and (2) a new method of fissure surface identification. We tested our algorithm on CT image stacks from 8 anonymous patients with pathological lungs. Compared to manually segmented fissures, our algorithm produced an average mean difference of 0.71 mm and 0.68 mm for identifying the left and right oblique fissures, respectively. Using a 3-mm percentile measure, the algorithm yielded an average accuracy of 86.8% for the left oblique fissure with a mean worst-case error of 3.18 mm. For the right oblique fissure, the algorithm produced an accuracy of 88.8% with a mean worst-case error of 3.13 mm. The above results show feasibility of using our algorithm for identifying fissures in pathological lungs.

Abstract
AIM To investigate the effects of systemically administered alendronate, one of the most potent bisphosphonates (BPs), on alveolar bone resorption and angiogenesis in rats subjected to experimental periapical lesions over two time periods. METHODOLOGY Forty adult Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided equally into control and experimental groups, and the pulp chambers of mandibular first molars of all rats were exposed to the oral environment to induce periapical lesions. The experimental group received daily subcutaneous injections of alendronate at a dose of 0.25 mg kg(-1), whereas the control group received only the saline vehicle. These injections were initiated 1 week before the periapical lesion induction and then continued daily throughout the entire experimental period. After 2 or 4 weeks following pulp exposure, the rats were killed, and the mandibles were examined histologically for periapical bone loss area, number of microvascular vessels (NMV) and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) activity. RESULTS Overall, periapical bone loss area and the number of TRAP-positive cells (osteoclasts) were significantly decreased at 2 and 4 weeks, respectively, after daily subcutaneous injection of alendronate compared with the control group (P < 0.05). There was no significant decrease change in NMV (P > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Administration of alendronate to rats might inhibit alveolar bone resorption associated with periapical disease, which might not lead to impairment of angiogenesis. However, because of the differences between rats and humans, one has to consider the possible consequences of this treatment in the clinic.

Abstract
Ameloblastin null mice fail to make an enamel layer, but the defects could be due to an absence of functional ameloblastin or to the secretion of a potentially toxic mutant ameloblastin. We hypothesized that the enamel phenotype could be rescued by the transgenic expression of normal ameloblastin in Ambn mutant mice. We established and analyzed 5 transgenic lines that expressed ameloblastin from the amelogenin (AmelX) promoter and identified transgenic lines that express virtually no transgene, slightly less than normal (Tg+), somewhat higher than normal (Tg++), and much higher than normal (Tg+++) levels of ameloblastin. All lines expressing detectable levels of ameloblastin at least partially recovered the enamel phenotype. When ameloblastin expression was only somewhat higher than normal, the enamel covering the molars and incisors was of normal thickness, had clearly defined rod and interrod enamel, and held up well in function. We conclude that ameloblastin is essential for dental enamel formation.

Abstract
In spite of its excellent electronic properties, the use of graphene in field-effect transistors is not practical at room temperature without modification of its intrinsically semimetallic nature to introduce a bandgap. Quantum confinement effects can create a bandgap in graphene nanoribbons, but existing nanoribbon fabrication methods are slow and often produce disordered edges that compromise electronic properties. Here, we demonstrate the self-organized growth of graphene nanoribbons on a templated silicon carbide substrate prepared using scalable photolithography and microelectronics processing. Direct nanoribbon growth avoids the need for damaging post-processing. Raman spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and electrostatic force microscopy confirm that nanoribbons as narrow as 40 nm can be grown at specified positions on the substrate. Our prototype graphene devices exhibit quantum confinement at low temperatures (4 K), and an on-off ratio of 10 and carrier mobilities up to 2,700 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) at room temperature. We demonstrate the scalability of this approach by fabricating 10,000 top-gated graphene transistors on a 0.24-cm(2) SiC chip, which is the largest density of graphene devices reported to date.

Abstract
Target cells for Goose parvovirus (GPV) in natural infection are still unknown. In this study, immune system organs namely the spleen, bone marrow, thymus, bursa of Fabricius, and blood of experimentally GPV-infected goslings were examined by an immunoassay and flow cytometry for the presence of viral antigen and by a PCR for viral genome. The results indicated that the virus replicated in some cells of the spleen and bone marrow, but not in peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs). These data suggested that some cell populations in the spleen and bone marrow were targets for GPV infection. In addition, the immunoassay used for the detection of GPV was found comparable with a PCR in reliability and sensitivity.

Evidence for an anomalous like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry. PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS 2010; 105:081801.

Abstract
We measure the charge asymmetry A ≡ (N++ - N--)/(N++ + N--) of like-sign dimuon events in 6.1 fb-1 of pp collisions recorded with the D0 detector at a center-of-mass energy square root(s) = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. From A we extract the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry in semileptonic b-hadron decays: A(sl)(b) = -0.009 57 ± 0.002 51(stat) ± 0.001 46(sys). It differs by 3.2 standard deviations from the standard model prediction A(sl)(b)(SM) = (-2.3(-0.6)(+0.5)) × 10(-4), and provides first evidence of anomalous CP violation in the mixing of neutral B mesons.
