| 1 | Numerical simulation of excess-enthalpy combustion flame propagation of coal mine methane in ceramic foam显示文摘Based on the assumption of a local non-equilibrium of heat transfer between a solid matrix and gas,a mathematic model of coal mine methane combustion in a porous medium was established,as well the solid-gas boundary conditions.We simulated numerically the flame propagation characteristics.The results show that the flame velocity in ceramic foam is higher than that of free laminar flows;the maximum flame velocity depends on the combined effects of a radiation extinction coefficient and convection heat transfer in ceramic foam and rises with an increase in the chemical equivalent ratio.The radiation extinction coefficient cannot be used alone to determine the heat regeneration effects in the design of ceramic foam burners. | SONG, Zhengchang LIN, Boquan | 2010 | Mining Science and Technology2010，20，2： | 2 |
| 2 | Thrombopoietin induced proliferation and differentiation of fetal liver CD34^+ cells with phenotype change from hemopoiesis to neurogenesis显示文摘BACKGROUND: Previous studies have reported a neurotrophin-like motif in the N-terminal receptor binding region of the thrombopoietin (TPO) molecule, and have described localization of TPO and TPO receptor in the brain. Therefore, it is believed that TPO may be involved in regulation of neurogenesis. OBJECTIVE: To validate the effect of TPO on trans-differentiation, or differentiation from hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) to neural stem cells (NSCs). DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: Comparative studies were performed from March 2004 to April 2007 at the Department of Experimental Medicine, Northern Hospital, and the Department of Immunology, Fourth Military Medical University of Chinese PLA. MATERIALS: Human fetal liver (FL) was obtained from fetuses after water-balloon abortion. Gestational age ranged from 16 to 20 weeks. The study was approved by the Institutional Review Board and Ethics Committee of the Northern Hospital. TPO was kindly provided by Genentech Inc (USA). Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium (IMDM) and neurobasalTM medium were purchased from Invitrogen (USA). MACS CD34 multisort kit was purchased from Miltenyi Biotec (Germany). METHODS: CD34+ cells were isolated from human FL mononuclear cells using MACS CD34 multisort kit and cultured at 1 × 105/mL in IMDM, containing TPO for 60 days with weekly changes of half of the medium. After culturing for 30 and 60 days, the TPO-induced cells were resuspended in neurobasalTM medium containing 10% fetal brain extracts and plated in an 8-well BIOCOAT poly-D-Lysine Culture Slide and cul- tured for another 7 days. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Cell number, viability, phenotype and expression of hemopoiesis-related and neurogenesis-related proteins were examined by trypan blue exclusion with hemocytometer, immunoblot, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometry. RESULTS: After 60 days of induction with TPO, the cell number increased by 4.6-fold compared to the ini- tial culture. Although the proportion of the cells expressing the hemopoietic stem cell associated antigen (CD34) decreased steadily, both proportions of the cultured FL-derived CD34+ cells expressing CD41a and CD61 remained unchanged, which still accounted for 10%. Noticeably, the proportions of the cells express- ing nestin and epidermal growth factor receptor increased significantly (both > 50%), whereas the expression of more mature neural or glial proteins [microtubule-associated protein-2 (MAP2), glial fibrillary acidic pro- tein (GFAP), oligodendrocyte marker O4 (O4)] markers on the cultured fetal liver derived-CD34+ cells were at lower levels. After another 7 days incubation in neurobasal? medium, these TPO-induced cells formed neurospheres, which were labeled with nestin, and differentiated into cells with morphological characteristics of neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes, which were labeled with MAP-2, GFAP, and O4, respectively. CONCLUSION: TPO can induce FL-derived HSCs to differentiate or trans-differentiate into NSCs and its progenitors. | Ning Ma Dongchu Ma Yi Tao Yinghui Sun Di Lin Huiying Yu Jinlong Jian Wei Jia Boquan Jin | 2008 | Neural Regeneration Research2008，3，4： | 1 |
