Electrophysiological study on differentiation of rat bone marrow stromal stem cells into neuron-like cells in vitro by edaravone

To explore the electrophysiological proper-ties of differentiation of rat bone marrow-derived stromal stem cells (rBMSCs) to neuron-like cells in vitro by edaravone, a new type of free radical scavenger. Methods: Stromal stem cells were separated from rat bone marrow with Ficoll-Paque reagent and expanded in different culture medium in vitro, rBMSCs were induced by edaravone containing serum-free L-DMEM. Morphologic observation and Western blot analysis including the ex-pression of Nav1.6, Kv1.2, Kv1.3, Cav1.2 were performed, and whole patch-clamp technique was used. Results: Cyton contraction and long processes were shown in differentiated stromal stem cells. Nav1.6, Kv1.2, Kv1.3 and Cav1.2 were expressed in both differentiated and undifferentiated cells. However, the expression of channel proteins in differentiated cells was up-regulated. Consistently, their resting potential and outward currents were also enhanced in the differentiated cells, which was especially significant in the outward rectifier potassium current. Conclusion: In vitro, neuron-like cells derived from rBMSCs, induced by edaravone, possess electrophysiologi-cal properties of neurons.     

Electrochemical investigation of formic acid electro-oxidation and its crossover through a Nafion® membrane

This work studies formic acid as an anode fuel for polymer electrolyte fuel cells and investigates the electro-oxidation of formic acid on Pt/C. Fuel crossovers through the Nafion^® 115 membrane at different temperatures and concentrations are reported. A linear dependence of the crossover current on the temperature and concentration is obtained. It is found that the crossover can be reduced by five times and a higher performance can be rendered by formic acid when compared to methanol under the same conditions. Electrochemical impedance measurements are conducted to interpret the reaction mechanism of formic acid oxidation. The effect of the electrode potential on the impedance pattern is revealed and an impedance model incorporating the reaction kinetics information is developed to simulate the experimental impedance response.

Relationship between refractive error and monochromatic aberrations of the eye.

PURPOSE: To examine the relationship between ametropia and optical aberrations in a population of 200 normal human eyes with refractive errors spanning the range from +5.00 to -10.00 D. METHODS: Using a reduced-eye model of ametropia, we tested the hypothesis that the optical system of the eye is uncorrelated with the degree of ametropia. These predictions were evaluated experimentally with a Shack-Hartmann aberrometer that measured the monochromatic aberrations across the central 6 mm of the dilated pupil in well-corrected, cyclopleged eyes. RESULTS: Optical theory predicted, and control experiments on a model eye verified, that Shack-Hartmann measurements of spherical aberration will vary with axial elongation of the eye even if the dioptric components of the eye are fixed. Contrary to these predictions, spherical aberration was not significantly different from emmetropic eyes. Root mean square of third-order aberrations, fourth-order aberrations, and total higher aberrations (third to 10th) in myopic and hyperopic eyes were also uncorrelated with refractive error. Astigmatic eyes tended to have larger total higher-order aberrations than nonastigmatic eyes. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that a reduced-eye model of myopia assuming fixed optical parameters and variable axial length is not tenable.     

Comparison of monochromatic ocular aberrations measured with an objective cross-cylinder aberroscope and a Shack-Hartmann aberrometer.

Repeated measures of wavefront aberrations were taken along the line-of-sight of seven eyes using two instruments: an objective, cross-cylinder aberroscope (OA) and a Shack-Hartmann (SH) aberrometer. Both instruments were implemented on the same optical table to facilitate interleaved measurements on the same eyes under similar experimental conditions. Variability of repeated measures of individual coefficients tended to be much greater for OA data than for SH data. Although Zernike coefficients obtained from a single measurement were generally larger when measured with the OA than with the SH, the averages across five trials were often smaller for the OA. The Zernike coefficients obtained from the two instruments were not significantly correlated. Radial modulation-transfer functions and point-spread functions derived from the two sets of measurements were similar for some subjects, but not all. When average Zernike coefficients were used to determine optical quality, the OA indicated superior optics in some eyes, but the reverse trend was true if Zernike coefficients from individual trials were used. Possible reasons for discrepancies between the OA and SH measurements include difference in sampling density, quality of data images, alignment errors, and temporal fluctuations. Multivariate statistical analysis indicated that the SH aberrometer discriminated between subjects much better than did the objective aberroscope.
