    Abstract A lattice-based version of the aggregation-volume-bias Monte Carlo method that was introduced recently has allowed for the extension of the calculation of the nucleation free energies from liquid clusters to solid clusters. Here, it was used to calculate the nucleation free energies of both bcc and fcc clusters formed by Lennard-Jones particles. Under the simulation conditions considered in this study, a cross-over of the thermodynamic stability from the bcc to the fcc structure was observed directly from the free energy results. In addition, the free energies obtained for both types of clusters were used to extrapolate bulk phase information, including chemical potential and surface tension, which revealed that bcc clusters are favored due to the lower surface tension. These results corroborate a recent classical density functional theory study. This work also demonstrates that this approach can be used to predict the entire thermodynamic landscape (i.e., free energies for clusters of different structures and sizes, including an infinitely large cluster, which is the bulk phase), which is important to answer fundamental questions related to crystallization such as the origin of polymorphism.

    Abstract β-defensin 2 (BD2) is a small cationic peptide that exerts a critical role in host defense against bacterial infections. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of BD2 in protecting against acute urinary tract infection (AUTI) caused by Escherichia coli (UPEC). Here, LPS-induced human urinary bladder epithelial cell (HCV-29) model and UPEC-induced mice model were used for assessing AUTI. Visceral organ lesions of mice following treatment was assessed by HE staining. Cell viability was determined by CCK-8 assay. Permeability in HCV-29 cells was analyzed in Transwell assay. Expression of inflammatory factors (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) was measured by ELISA assay. The levels of BD2, β-catenin and tight-junction proteins (ZO-1, Occludin, and Claudin-1) were detected by RT-qPCR, western blotting, immunofluorescence or immunohistochemistry. Our results showed that BD2 was lowly expressed and β-catenin showed the reverse trend in response to bacterial infection in vitro and in vivo. BD2 overexpression alleviated the decreased cell viability, increased cell permeability, upregulation of inflammatory factors, downregulation of tight-junction protein and high β-catenin expression in LPS-induced HCV-29 cells, which may contribute to the negative regulation of β-catenin expression. Furthermore, BD2 overexpression attenuated the bacterial infection of tissues, high levels of inflammatory factors and β-catenin, and low levels of tight-junction proteins in mice stimulated with UPEC. This study showed that BD2 played a crucial role in protecting against AUTI caused by gram-negative bacteria through suppressing β-catenin expression. Targeting BD2 may provide a potential therapeutic approach for the prevention and treatment of AUTI.

    Abstract Parents' differential treatment of siblings has been understudied among sibling research in Chinese societies where the government ended its one-child policy. This study, using a three-wave longitudinal design, explored the associations among parents' marital and coparenting relationships, parental differential treatment of siblings, and adolescents' sibling relationships within a theoretical framework of a developmental cascade model of family influence.

    Abstract The aggregation-volume-bias Monte Carlo method, which has been successful in the calculation of the formation free energies of liquid clusters, is extended to solid systems. This extension is motivated by early studies where disordered clusters are observed when the original method is applied at a temperature even far below the triple point. In order to avoid the formation of disordered aggregates, the insertion of particles is targeted directly toward those crystal lattice sites. Specifically, the insertion volume used to be defined as a spherical volume centered around a given target molecule is now restricted to be around each of the crystal lattice sites near a given target molecule. The free energies obtained for both liquid and solid clusters are then used to extrapolate bulk-phase information such as the chemical potential of the liquid and solid phases at coexistence. Using the temperature and pressure dependencies of the chemical potential information obtained for both liquid and solid phases, the location of the triple point can be determined. For Lennard-Jonesium, the results were found to be in good agreement with previous simulation studies using other approaches.
