The Long-Lasting Influence of Ideological Prejudices: The Case of Ye Lingfeng (1905-1975), a Misunderstood Writer and Intellectual in Modern China
No full textThrough the works and some biographical issues of Ye Lingfeng (1905-1975), one of the writers of the so-called Shanghai School (haipai, 海派), this paper aims to offer some hints of the multi-folded bunch of prejudices which the history of modern Chinese literature is intertwined with.
To reach this goal, the following issues will be taken into consideration:
1. an analysis of Ye Lingfeng’s early production, before his moving from mainland China to Hongkong – with particular reference to The Dream of a Virgin Chunüde meng, (处女的梦, Chunüde meng), in comparison with Ding Ling (丁玲) Miss Sophia’s Diary (Shafei nüshi de rij, 莎菲女士的日记); to which a much bigger success arose;
2. a general description of the complicated issues which led inflicting on him the very unfair label of being a “traitor”, moving from his clash with Lu Xun in the late The twenties and early Thirties to his “collaboration” with the Nationalist Party during the first period of his staying in Hong Kong;
3. an overview of his literary works in order to highlight his way to connect traditional and modern literary tradition, which – if prejudices were not working - could provide some suggestions to the core issue of the relationship between “classic” (feudal?) literature and the literature of New China

No full textAxon specification is a critical step in neuronal development, and the function of glial cells in this process is not fully understood. Here, we show that C. elegans GLR glial cells regulate axon specification of their nearby GABAergic RME neurons through GLR-RME gap junctions. Disruption of GLR-RME gap junctions causes misaccumulation of axonal markers in non-axonal neurites of RME neurons and converts microtubules in those neurites to form an axon-like assembly. We further uncover that GLR-RME gap junctions regulate RME axon specification through activation of the CDK-5 pathway in a calcium-dependent manner, involving a calpain clp-4. Therefore, our study reveals the function of glia-neuron gap junctions in neuronal axon specification and shows that calcium originated from glial cells can regulate neuronal intracellular pathways through gap junctions

Improved Attribute-based Encryption with Fpga for Automatic Appliance Control Application in Smart Grid
No full textIn this thesis, the author describes the privacy violation issues in smart grid with Automatic Appliance Control applications, and explains the security threats related to it. The smart grid is a sensitive and sophisticated system in real life operation. A mass of data including the remote control commands and users’ energy consumptions is transmitted between the utility companies and other devices in the smart grid such as the substations, smart meters, smart home appliances and much more. Without efficient cryptographic methods, an adversary may hack into the data or the remote control commands and extrapolates a resident’s activity model. Therefore, the Attribute-Based Encryption (ABE) is proposed to provide protection through generating the secret key of user based on a set of attributes which is used to identify different users in the smart grid. And the ciphertext, which is the encrypted remote command, obtains the access policy for decryption. However, ABE algorithm requires long computational time especially a large quantity of attributes are required in a smart grid. The idea of improved ABE system with FPGA is proposed to solve the problem. But the FPGA is only conceptual idea in this thesis and future work of it will be done by other co-worker
Genome sequences reveal global dispersal routes and suggest convergent genetic adaptations in seahorse evolution
No full textSeahorses have a circum-global distribution in tropical to temperate coastal waters. Yet, seahorses show many adaptations for a sedentary, cryptic lifestyle: they require specific habitats, such as seagrass, kelp or coral reefs, lack pelvic and caudal fins, and give birth to directly developed offspring without pronounced pelagic larval stage, rendering long-range dispersal by conventional means inefficient. Here we investigate seahorses’ worldwide dispersal and biogeographic patterns based on a de novo genome assembly of Hippocampus erectus as well as 358 re-sequenced genomes from 21 species. Seahorses evolved in the late Oligocene and subsequent circum-global colonization routes are identified and linked to changing dynamics in ocean currents and paleo-temporal seaway openings. Furthermore, the genetic basis of the recurring “bony spines” adaptive phenotype is linked to independent substitutions in a key developmental gene. Analyses thus suggest that rafting via ocean currents compensates for poor dispersal and rapid adaptation facilitates colonizing new habitats.Fil: Chunyan, Li.

The Cell Death Pathway Regulates Synapse Elimination through Cleavage of Gelsolin in Caenorhabditis elegans Neurons
No full text© 2015 The Authors. Synapse elimination occurs in development, plasticity, and disease. Although the importance of synapse elimination has been documented in many studies, the molecular mechanisms underlying this process are unclear. Here, using the development of C. elegans RME neurons as a model, we have uncovered a function for the apoptosis pathway in synapse elimination. We find that the conserved apoptotic cell death (CED) pathway and axonal mitochondria are required for the elimination of transiently formed clusters of presynaptic components in RME neurons. This function of the CED pathway involves the activation of the actin-filament-severing protein, GSNL-1. Furthermore, we show that caspase CED-3 cleaves GSNL-1 at a conserved C-terminal region and that the cleaved active form of GSNL-1 promotes its actin-severing ability. Our data suggest that activation of the CED pathway contributes to selective elimination of synapses through disassembly of the actin filament network. Meng et al. find that activation of the cell death pathway in C. elegans neurons contributes to selective elimination of synapses through disassembly of the actin filament network
Analytical applications of ionic liquids and determination of cell viability using capillary electrophoresis coupled with laser-induced fluorescence detection
No full textNewly developed ionic liquids that are air and moisture stable have been subject to an increasing number of scientific investigations. Their recent applications include novel solvent systems and catalysts for organic synthesis, versatile electrolytes for electrochemical studies, and liquid-liquid extraction solvents. The potential usage of ionic liquids could be vast. The purpose of the first part of this dissertation is to address the novel applications of ionic liquids in the field of analytical chemistry. In this part, the author's research can be divided into two directions: (a) examining the chromatographic performance of ionic liquids as gas chromatography (GC) stationary phases or solvents for GC stationary phases; (b) synthesizing new ionic liquids and testing their properties as matrices for matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry.;In addition to multiple applications of ionic liquids, we also became interested in developing an effective instrumental method to assess the viability of microorganisms and mammalian cells. Since existing techniques, such as plate count methods, flow cytometry, etc., are either laborious or too expensive, highly efficient and more affordable methods are needed. Therefore, the second part of this dissertation is focused on the feasibility of using capillary electrophoresis (CE), in combination with fluorescent labeling technique, to determine cell viability. The author first adapted the recently developed highly efficient microbial CE method and viable fluorescence staining method to determine the viability of bacteria and yeast, and then carried out the potency study of animal sperm using a similar CE approach.;This dissertation is presented as two independent parts. Each part begins with a general introduction and literature review of recent progress in the specific research area. The following chapters are arranged in such a way that the related published papers or manuscripts are presented as separate chapters. All these chapters are presented in publication format. References for each chapter are independent and appear at the end of the chapter. The last chapter is general conclusions covering both parts of this dissertation.</p
