    Abstract • KEY MESSAGE : The specific dynamic elastic modulus, acoustic radiation, logarithmic decrement, sound transmission parameter, and acoustic conversion efficiency of spruce wood (Picea jezoensis var. microsperma (Lindl.) W.C.Cheng & L.K.Fu) were improved by extraction treatment with deionized water, dichloromethane, benzyl alcohol, and ethanol. A larger improvement was achieved after extraction with benzoyl alcohol and dichloromethane extraction than by using ethanol and deionized water. • CONTEXT : It is necessary to improve the acoustic vibrational properties of wood to solve the problem of resource shortage of wood with excellent acoustic vibrational properties for the soundboards of musical instruments and to improve the use value of wood. • AIMS : The effects of extraction treatment with deionized water, dichloromethane, benzyl alcohol, and ethanol on the acoustic vibrational properties of spruce wood were evaluated. • METHODS : After the acoustic vibrational properties of untreated wood samples were measured using the free-free flexural vibration test method with a fast Fourier transform spectrum analyzer (FFT, CF-5220Z), extraction treatment of the wood samples was separately performed with deionized water, dichloromethane, benzyl alcohol, and ethanol for 15 days at room temperature and pressure, followed by drying. The acoustic vibrational properties of the treated wood samples were then measured, and the effect of extraction treatment on the acoustic vibrational properties was analyzed. • RESULTS : The increase in the specific dynamic elastic modulus was highest (14.5%) after the benzyl alcohol treatment. The acoustic radiation clearly improved after the ethanol treatment (18.1%). The acoustic impedance of the wood treated by dichloromethane extraction decreased significantly (−4.35%), while the logarithmic decrement was significantly reduced (−52.0%) by benzyl alcohol treatment. From the viewpoint of energy utilization, with benzyl alcohol treatment, the acoustic conversion efficiency and transmission parameter increased by 124% and 125%, respectively. • CONCLUSION : The degree of improvement in the acoustic vibrational properties of wood differed depending on the solvent used. Greater improvement was observed after extraction with benzoyl alcohol and dichloromethane as compared to ethanol and deionized water.

    Abstract The ability of a cancer cell to avoid apoptosis is crucial to tumorigenesis and can also contribute to chemoresistance. The Bcl-2 family of prosurvival proteins (Bcl-2, Bcl-X(L), Bcl-w, Mcl-1, and A1) plays a key role in these processes. We previously reported the discovery of ABT-263 (navitoclax), a potent small-molecule inhibitor of Bcl-2, Bcl-X(L), and Bcl-w. While navitoclax exhibits single-agent activity in tumors dependent on Bcl-2 or Bcl-X(L) for survival, the expression of Mcl-1 has been shown to confer resistance to navitoclax, most notably in solid tumors. Thus, therapeutic agents that can downregulate or neutralize Mcl-1 are predicted to synergize potently with navitoclax. Here, we report the activity of navitoclax in combination with 19 clinically relevant agents across a panel of 46 human solid tumor cell lines. Navitoclax broadly enhanced the activity of multiple therapeutic agents in vitro and enhanced efficacy of both docetaxel and erlotinib in xenograft models. The ability of navitoclax to synergize with docetaxel or erlotinib corresponded to an altered sensitivity of the mitochondria toward navitoclax, which was associated with the downmodulation of Mcl-1 and/or upregulation of Bim. These data provide a rationale to interrogate these combinations clinically.

    Abstract Fourteen novel terpene-conjugated curcuminoids, terpecurcumins J-W (1-14), have been isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma longa L. Among them, terpecurcumins J-Q and V represent four unprecedented skeletons featuring an unusual core of hydrobenzannulated[6,6]-spiroketal (1 and 2), bicyclo[2.2.2]octene (3-7), bicyclo[3.1.3]octene (8), and spiroepoxide (13), respectively. The structures of compounds 1-14 were elucidated by extensive spectroscopic analysis, and their absolute configurations were established by electronic circular dichroism, vibrational circular dichroism, and (13)C NMR spectroscopic data analysis, together with density functional theory calculations. The structure and configuration of 1 was further confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (Cu Kα). The biogenetic pathways of 1-14 were proposed, involving Michael addition, condensation, Diels-Alder cycloaddition, and electrophilic substitution reactions. Terpecurcumins showed more potent cytotoxic activities than curcumin and ar-/β-turmerone. Among them, terpecurcumin Q (8) exhibited IC50 of 3.9 μM against MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, and mitochondria-mediated apoptosis played an important role in the overall growth inhibition. Finally, LC/MS/MS quantitative analysis of five representative terpecurcumins indicated these novel compounds were present in C. longa at parts per million level.

    As in the second edition, the third edition of Handbook of Practical Immunohistochemistry – Frequently Asked Questions is written in a question and answer (Q&A) format and intended to be a practical, user-friendly, quick reference for information related to using the most up-to-date immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization in clinical diagnosis. The new edition demonstrates a significant revision and improvement over the second edition. Five new chapters have been added that cover the following: 1) Immunohistochemistry: Leica’s perspective; 2) Immunohistochemistry: Maixin perspective; 3) RNA in situ hybridization: Applications in anatomic pathology; 4) Applications of rapid immunohistochemistry on frozen tissue sections during intraoperative pathologic diagnosis; and 5) Cutaneous lymphomas. In addition to extensive additions and changes, over 150 new questions and answers were added throughout this new edition. All chapters have been updated to include relevant new questions, new markers, more refined IHC panels, representative pictures, and current references. An extensive set of high-quality color pictures and diagnostic algorithms, if available, is included in each chapter to illustrate some of the key antibodies, including many recently discovered and substantiated antibodies used in that chapter. Written by experts in the field, Handbook of Practical Immunohistochemistry Third Edition is a comprehensive and practical guide for surgical pathologists, pathology residents and fellows, cytopathologists, and cytotechnologists.

    Abstract In this research, the synergistic effect of trisodium citrate (TSC) and microbial transglutaminase (TGase) treatment on the textural properties of acidified yak skim milk gels was investigated. TSC was added to yak skim milk to concentrations of 0, 20, and 40 mmol/L, followed by adjusting the pH to 6.7. The samples were incubated with TGase for the cross-linking reaction, after which the samples were acidified with 1.4% (w/v) gluconodelta-lactone (GDL) at 42°C for 4 h to form gels. The stiffness and water holding capacity (WHC) of gels exhibited higher values at 20 or 40 mmol/L than without TSC. The final storage modulus (G′) of yak milk gels was positively related to the concentration of TSC prior to TGase treatment. Cryoscanning electron microscopy observations showed that the gel networks were more rigid with higher TSC concentrations. Overall, TSC dissociated particles in yak milk into smaller ones. The newly formed particles in yak skim milk could form acid-induced gels with greater stiffness and higher WHC in the presence of TGase.
