The effects of Pr_t on the numerical simulation were analyzed, especially for the heat transfer deterioration conditions. Based on the analyses, the turbulent Prandtl number was modeled as a function of the turbulent viscosity ratio and molecular Prandtl number. The model was evaluated using experimental heat transfer data of CO_2, water and Freon. The wall temperatures, including the heat transfer deterioration cases, were more accurately predicted by this model than by traditional numerical calculations with a constant Pr_t. By analyzing the predicted results with and without the variable Pr_t model, it was found that the predicted velocity distribution and turbulent mixing characteristics with the variable Pr_t model are quite different from that predicted by a constant Pr_t. When heat transfer deterioration occurs, the radial velocity profile deviates from the log-law profile and the restrained turbulent mixing then leads to the deteriorated heat transfer.展开更多

METHODS: After incubation with various concentrations of mifepristone (5, 10, 20 umol/L), the adhesion to artificial basement membrane, Matrigel, and the migration of MKN-45 cells were assayed using MTT assay and Transwell cell culture chambers, respectively. Enzyme- linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry were used to determine the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and integrin 133 in the cells. After subcutaneous transplantation of MKN-45 cells in nude mice, mifepristone (50 mg/kg.d) was administrated subcutaneously for 8 wk to assess its effects on tumor metastasis. Immunohistochemical analysis was used to detect the expression of VEGF and microvascular density (MVD) in xenografted tumors. RESULTS: Mifepristone dose-dependently inhibited the heterotypic adhesion to Matrigel of MKN-45 cells. The inhibition was accompanied by a significant down-regulation of integrin 133 expression in the cells. After incubation with 5, 10, 20 umol/L mifepristone, the number of migrated MKN-45 cells was 72+8, 50+6, 41+5 in experiment group, and 94+16 in control group (P<0.01). Meanwhile, secreted VEGF protein of MKN-45 cells in mifepristone-treated group (14.2+2.9, 8.9+3.1, 5.4+2.1 ng/g per liter) was significantly lower than that in control group (22.7+4.3 ng/g per liter, P<0.01). In vivo, mifepristone decreased the number of metastatic foci in lungs of nude mice and down-regulated the expression of VEGF and MVD in the xenograted tumors. CONCLUSION: Mifepristone can effectively inhibit the invasive and metastatic potential of human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line MKN-45 in vitro and in vivo through inhibition of heterotypic adhesion to basement membrane, cell migration and angiogenesis.展开更多

The Arabidopsis genome encodes eight PRK genes, of which six are highly expressed in pollen tubes. The potential functions of AtPRK1 through AtPRK5, but not of AtPRK6,in pollen growth were analyzed in tobacco. Herein, AtPRK6 was cloned, and its function was identified. AtPRK6 was expressed specifically in pollen tubes. A yeast two-hybrid screen of AtPRK6 against 14 Arabidopsis Rop guanine nucleotide exchange factors (RopGEFs) showed that AtPRK6 interacted with AtRopGEF8 and AtRopGEF12. These interactions were confirmed in Arabidopsis mesophyll protoplasts. The interactions between AtPRK6 and AtRopGEF8/12 were mediated by the C-termini of AtRopGEF8/12 and by the juxtamembrane and kinase domain of AtPRK6, but were not dependent on the kinase activity. In addition, transient overexpression of AtPRK6::GFP in Arabidopsis protoplasts revealed that AtPRK6 was localized to the plasma membrane. Tobacco pollen tubes overexpressing AtPRK6 exhibited shorter tubes with enlarged tips. This depolarized tube growth required the kinase domain of AtPRK6 and was not dependent on kinase activity. Taken together, the results show that AtPRK6,through its juxtamembrane and kinase domains (KD), interacts with AtRopGEF8/12 and plays crucial roles in polarized growth of pollen tubes.展开更多
