Overexpression of Cyclin D1 and C-Myc Gene Products in Human Primary Epithelial Ovarian Cancer
No full textCyclin D1 and c-Myc are key participants in the cell-cycle pathway, in which aberrancies have been associated with malignant transformation. To date, data on the relationship of expression of these proteins and histologic subtype of epithelial ovarian cancer are still scarce and discordant. Immunohistochemical analysis was performed on 12 normal ovaries and 47 cases of serous, mucinous, endometrioid, and clear cell ovarian carcinomas. No abnormal expression of cyclin D1 or c-Myc was demonstrated in any of the 12 normal ovarian specimens. However, compared to normal ovarian tissues, overexpression of cyclin D1 and c-Myc was observed in 42.6% (20/47) and 65.9% (31/47) of tumors examined, respectively. There was no significant difference of overexpression of cyclin D1 or c-Myc gene products between these four histologic subtypes of ovarian adenocarcinomas. This study shows that cyclin D1 and c-Myc are frequently overexpressed in epithelial ovarian carcinomas, but they are not correlated with a particular histologic subtype. Although our preliminary results need to be validated in a larger number of tumors, the abnormal expression of cyclin D 1 and c-Myc in epithelial ovarian cancer reaffirms the notion that they are crucial components in the pathway of tumorigenesis and deserve further study
Triomicrus mirus Shen and Yin
No full textTriomicrus mirus Shen and Yin (Fig. 6) Triomicrus mirus Shen and Yin, 2015: 522. Additional material examined. 8 ♂♂, 4 ♀♀, labeled ‘ China: Hunan, Liuyang City, Daweishan Town (大围山镇), Dawei shan (大围山), 28 ° 25 ’ 37 ’’N, 114 °07’03’’E, mixed leaf litter, sifted, 1440 m, 21.vii. 2013, Peng, Dai & Xie leg.’ (SNUC). Comments. Males of this species can be easily separated from those of all other congeners by a combination of the following characters: antennomeres XI enlarged, with impression near middle (Fig. 6 B, 6 C); abdominal sternite VII with apical lamina (Fig. 6 D) composed of two sclerites, left one curved mesally, widest near base, obliquely narrowing toward bifurcate apex, with a tiny horn-like projection at the middle, right one elongate, curved mesally at apex. This species was originally described from the Yaoluoping Natural Reserve, here we record it also from the Dawei Mountain. Illustrations of sternite VII (Fig. 6 D) and the aedeagus (Fig. 6 E) are provided here. Distribution. Eastern China: Anhui; central China: Hunan (new provincial record).Published as part of Shen, Jia-Wei & Yin, Zi-Wei, 2016, The genus Triomicrus Sharp from central and southwestern China (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae: Pselaphinae), and a revised key to the Chinese species, pp. 369-380 in Zootaxa 4097 (3) on pages 375-376, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4097.3.5, http://zenodo.org/record/25630

Phenolic Acid and Flavonoid Content Analysis with Antioxidant Activity Assessment in Chinese C. pi. Shen Honey
No full textThe nutritional value of honey is closely related to its components, which are highly influenced by the botanic origin. C. pi. Shen (Codonopsis pilosula (Franch.) var. modesta (Nannf.) L. T. Shen), a key plant in traditional Chinese medicine, mainly produced in Gansu Province of China, has attracted much attention for its medicinal value. However, there are few reports about C. pi. Shen honey. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the contents of phenolic profiles and antioxidant activities in C. pi. Shen honey by colorimetric, UPLC-MS/MS, Ferric ion Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP), 2,2-bisazo-bis (3-ethyl-benzothiazole-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) free radical capacity, and 1,1-diphenyl-2-trinitrophenylhydrazine (DPPH) scavenging ability methods. In comparison with four other high-yield unifloral honeys in China (Acacia honey, linden honey, rape honey, and jujube honey), C. pi. Shen honey demonstrated remarkable advantages. Specifically, the levels of total phenolic acids, total flavonoids, and phenolic components of C. pi. Shen honey were significantly pronounced, especially protocatechuic acid and kaempferol. Furthermore, the antioxidant activity of C. pi. Shen honey was also excellent, which was attributed to its phenolic compounds, underscoring its potential biological value. This study is anticipated to serve as a reference for the identification, nutritional assessment, and functional advancement of C. pi. Shen honey
Qionemobius Shen & He 2020, gen. nov.
No full textGenus Qionemobius Shen & He gen. nov. (Fig. 2 C,D; Fig. 3) Type species: Qionemobius hsterus Including species: type species only Diagnosis. The new genus is similar to Pteronemobius, Dianemobius, Polionemobius, Speonemobius in appearance, but does not have forewings. It also differs from Marinemobius, Parapteronemobius, and Taiwanemobius by having short legs. In terms of habitat, the new species occupies leaf litter habitats, while the latter three genera live near sea. Genitalia: apical part of epiphallus with two rounded projections, ectoparamers with rather small apical part, not exceeding epiphallus (Fig. 3).Published as part of Shen, Chu-Ze, Guo, Pei-Kun & He, Zhu-Qing, 2020, A pilot phylogeny study of Nemobiinae inferred from 18 S, 28 S and genes, with descriptions of two new genera and a new species from Hainan, China (Orthoptera: Grylloidea: Trigonidiidae), pp. 383-390 in Zootaxa 4778 (2) on page 387, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4778.2.9, http://zenodo.org/record/382641
Revisiting revisitation in computer interaction: organic bookmark management
No full textAccording to Milic-Frayling et al. (2004), there are two general ways of user browsing i.e. search (finding a website where the user has never visited before) and revisitation (returning to a website where the user has visited in the past). The issue of search is relevant to search engine technology, whilst revisitation concerns web usage and browser history mechanisms. The support for revisitation is normally through a set of functional built-in icons e.g. History, Back, Forward and Bookmarks. Nevertheless, for returning web users, they normally find it is easier and faster to re-launch an online search again, rather than spending time to find a particular web site from their personal bookmark and history records. Tauscher and Greenberg (1997) showed that revisiting web pages forms up to 58% of the recurrence rate of web browsing. Cockburn and McKenzie (2001) also stated that 81% of web pages have been previously visited by the user. According to Obendorf et al. (2007), revisitation can be divided into four classifications based on time: short-term (72.6% revisits within an hour), medium-term (12% revisits within a day and 7.8% revisits within a week), and long-term (7.6% revisits longer than a week
Chinese users’ preference for web browser icons
No full textThis paper compares the perspicacity, appropriateness and preference of web browser icons from leading software providers with those of a culture-specific design. The history and future direction of web browsers is outlined, together with the implications for the future growth of Chinese internet users. China, with its rapidly expanding young netizens has now overtaken the USA in terms of the number of internet users (253 million) and we predict it will reach saturation (?70% internet penetration rate) by 2012. If correct, this will have a dramatic effect on the use of English as the ‘Lingua Franca’ of the Internet. This online study was conducted in Taiwan and involved 103 participants (mean age 21 years), who were given three sets of web browser icons to review, namely Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0, Macintosh Safari 3.0, and culturally specific icons created using the Culture-Centred Design methodology. The findings of the study show that all three sets have generally high recognition rates, but that some icon functions (e.g. Go/Visit and Favourite) in all three sets have poor recognition rates and are considered inappropriate. Furthermore, some significant differences were found when we analysed the level of user experience amongst several icon
