Progranulin deficiency promotes persistent neuroinflammation and causes regional pathology in the hippocampus following traumatic brain injury

Xiaojing Zheng, Tiantian Mi, Rong Wang, Zihan Zhang, more

Glia > 70 > 7 > 1317 - 1336

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) can be progressive and can lead to the development of a long‐term complication termed chronic traumatic encephalopathy. The mechanisms underlying the progressive changes are still unknown; however, studies have suggested that microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation in response to TBI may play a fundamental role. This study aimed to determine whether progranulin (PGRN), a...

Seonik Lee, Zihan Zhang, Yan Yu

Angewandte Chemie International Edition > 60 > 51 > 26734 - 26739

The digestion of pathogens inside phagosomes by immune cells occurs through a sequence of reactions including acidification and proteolysis, but how the reactions are orchestrated in the right order is unclear due to a lack of methods to simultaneously measure more than one reaction in phagosomes. Here we report a bifunctional Janus‐particle probe to simultaneously monitor acidification and proteolysis...

Follistatin-like 1 protects mesenchymal stem cells from hypoxic damage and enhances their therapeutic efficacy in a mouse myocardial infarction model

Han Shen, Guanghao Cui, Yanqiong Li, Wenxue Ye, more

Stem Cell Research & Therapy > 2019 > 10 > 1 > 1-14

Background Cell therapy remains the most promising approach against ischemic heart injury. However, poor survival of engrafted cells in ischemic sites diminishes its therapeutic efficacy. Follistatin-like 1 (Fstl1) is documented as a novel pro-survival cardiokine for cardiomyocytes, and it is protective during ischemic heart injury. In the present study, we characterize the potential of Fstl1 as an...

Application of tyrosine-tryptophan fluorescence resonance energy transfer in monitoring protein size changes

Kenneth B. Davis, Zihan Zhang, Elizaveta A. Karpova, Jun Zhang

Analytical Biochemistry > 2018 > 557 > C > 142-150

Monitoring protein size changes has versatile applications in studying protein folding/unfolding, conformational rearrangements, and ligand binding. Traditionally, FRET has been used to obtain this information. However, the use of FRET often requires covalent attachment of exogenous fluorophores. Although intrinsic FRET also exists between tyrosine and tryptophan residues, it has been underused because...

2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO) > 233 - 236

2017 IEEE 17th International Conference on Nanotechnology (IEEE-NANO)

Single-electron-transistor (SET)/MOS hybrid architectures greatly simplify the design of traditional A/D converters, but are quite unreliable due to random background charges. We propose a method of implementing Boltzmann machine networks on hybrid ADCs for the improved immunity against background charges. The self-regulation with Boltzmann machines enables the digital outputs of ADC to converge to...

Carbon competition between fatty acids and starch during benzoin seeds maturation slows oil accumulation speed

Zihan Zhang, Xiaojun Wang, Ying Luo, Fangyuan Yu

Trees > 2017 > 31 > 3 > 1025-1039

Key message The carbon flow balance is shifted to starch rather than oil accumulation during benzoin seed development stage (80–120 DAF) and thereby lipid deposition speed slows down. Abstract Benzoin [Styrax tonkinensis (Pierre) Craib ex Hartwich] is a woody oilseed species with potential value as a biofuel feedstock. However, the continuous drop in seed crude fat concentration during maturation...
