Role of hydrostatic pressure and wall effect in solidification of TC8 alloy.

ABSTRACT: The solidification experiments of TC8 alloy under both microgravity and normal gravity were conducted using a drop tube. The solidification microstructure were found composed of fine equiaxed grains formed at early stage and bigger elongated grains formed at later stage. Between the two kinds of grains a curved transition interface was observed in 1g sample, while that in μg sample was almost flat. Generally, the amounts and aspect ratios of the grains are larger, and the grain sizes are smaller in 1g sample. Besides, no visible element macrosegregation occurred in both samples. The results suggest that the solidification velocities of the samples were rapid, and consequently the convection effect and solute transport effect caused by gravity had little influence on the solidification microstructure. Therefore, the solidification process was mainly controlled by thermal diffusion, and hydrostatic pressure and wall effect played a great role in it.

Rapid Solidification of Plant Latices from <i>Campanula glomerata</i> Driven by a Sudden Decrease in Hydrostatic Pressure.

Project description:By monitoring the solidification of droplets of plant latices with a fast quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), droplets from Campanula glomerata were found to solidify much faster than droplets from Euphorbia characias and also faster than droplets from all technical latices tested. A similar conclusion was drawn from optical videos, where the plants were injured and the milky fluid was stretched (sometimes forming fibers) after the cut. Rapid solidification cannot be explained with physical drying because physical drying is transport-limited and therefore is inherently slow. It can, however, be explained with coagulation being triggered by a sudden decrease in hydrostatic pressure. A mechanism based on a pressure drop is corroborated by optical videos of both plants being injured under water. While the liquid exuded by E. characias keeps streaming away, the liquid exuded by C. glomerata quickly forms a plug even under water. Presumably, the pressure drop causes an influx of serum into the laticifers. The serum, in turn, triggers a transition from a liquid-liquid phase separated state (an LLPS state) of a resin and hardener to a single-phase state. QCM measurements, optical videos, and cryo-SEM images suggest that LLPS plays a role in the solidification of C. glomerata.

Response to high hydrostatic pressure

Project description:S. cerevisiae Y440 Mat a leu2 was grown in YEPD at 28 degrees C with aeration to exponential growth phase and was subjected to a hydrostatic pressure of 50 and 200 MPa for 30 minutes at room temperature. Total RNA was extracted using phenol/chloroform and further precipitated with 3 M sodium acetate / absolute ethanol. Extracted RNA samples were treated for 10 min with 0.5 U of RNAse-free DNAse I / ]g RNA at 37 oC to remove any residual genomic DNA. RNA pellets were washed in 70 % ethanol and resuspended in DEPC treated water. Purified mRNA from pressurized and unpressurized cells was reversed-transcribed, labeled with fluorescent-tagged nucleotides, and hybridized against a common refernce pool of mRNA for 18 h at 65 0C on cDNA microarray. After several washes, arrays were scanned using a commercially available scanning laser microscope (GenePix 4000) from Axon Instruments (Foster City, CA), the data obtained was normalized (mean value) applying a linear regression method. An all pairs experiment design type is where all labeled extracts are compared to every other labeled extract Keywords: Computed

Effect of Pressure Conditions in Uterine Decellularization Using Hydrostatic Pressure on Structural Protein Preservation.

Project description:Uterine regeneration using decellularization scaffolds provides a novel treatment for uterine factor infertility. Decellularized scaffolds require maximal removal of cellular components and minimal damage to the extracellular matrix (ECM). Among many decellularization methods, the hydrostatic pressure (HP) method stands out due to its low cytotoxicity and superior ECM preservation compared to the traditional detergent methods. Conventionally, 980 MPa was utilized in HP decellularization, including the first successful implementation of uterine decellularization previously reported by our team. However, structural protein denaturation caused by exceeding pressure led to a limited regeneration outcome in our previous research. This factor urged the study on the effects of pressure conditions in HP methods on decellularized scaffolds. The authors, therefore, fabricated a decellularized uterine scaffold at varying pressure conditions and evaluated the scaffold qualities from the perspective of cell removal and ECM preservation. The results show that by using lower decellularization pressure conditions of 250 MPa, uterine tissue can be decellularized with more preserved structural protein and mechanical properties, which is considered to be promising for decellularized uterine scaffold fabrication applications.

The Effect of Hydrostatic Pressure on Coronary Flow and Pressure-Based Indices of Coronary Stenosis Severity.

Project description:Background: To assess whether hydrostatic pressure gradients caused by coronary height differences in supine versus prone positioning during invasive physiological stenosis assessment affect resting and hyperaemic pressure-based indices or coronary flow. Methods: Twenty-three coronary stenoses were assessed in twenty-one patients with stable coronary artery disease. All patients had a stenosis of at least 50% visually defined on previous coronary angiography. Pd/Pa, iFR, FFR, and coronary flow velocity (APV) measured using a Doppler were recorded across the same stenosis, with the patient in the prone position, followed by repeat measurements in the standard supine position. Results: When comparing prone to supine measurements in the same stenosis, in the LAD, there was a significant change in mean Pd/Pa of 0.08 ± 0.04 (p = 0.0006), in the iFR of 0.06 ± 0.07 (p = 0.02), and in the FFR of 0.09 ± 0.07 (p = 0.003). In the Cx, there was a change in mean Pd/Pa of 0.05 ± 0.04 (p = 0.009), iFR of 0.07 ± 0.04 (p = 0.01), and FFR of 0.05 ± 0.03 (p = 0.006). In the RCA, there was a change in Pd/Pa of 0.05 ± 0.04 (p = 0.032), iFR of 0.04 ± 0.05 (p = 0.19), and FFR of 0.04+-0.03 (p = 0.004). Resting and hyperaemic coronary flow did not change significantly (resting delta APV = 1.6 cm/s, p = 0.31; hyperaemic delta APV = 0.9 cm/s, p = 0.85). Finally, 36% of iFR measurements and 26% of FFR measurements were re-classified across an ischaemic threshold when prone and supine measurements were compared across the same stenosis. Conclusions: Pd/Pa, iFR, and FFR were affected by hydrostatic pressure variations caused by coronary height differences in prone versus supine positioning. Coronary flow did not change signifying a purely pressure-based phenomenon.

Induction of DAN/TIR yeast cell wall mannoprotein genes in response to high hydrostatic pressure and low temperature

Project description:Global transcriptional profiles of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were studied following changes in growth conditions to high hydrostatic pressure and low temperature. These profiles were quantitatively very similar, encompassing 561 co-upregulated genes and 161 co-downregulated genes. In particular, expression of the DAN/TIR cell wall mannoprotein genes, which are generally expressed under hypoxia, were markedly upregulated by high pressure and low temperature, suggesting the overlapping regulatory networks of transcription. In support of the role of the mannoproteins in cell wall integrity, cells acquired resistance against treatment with SDS, Zymolyase and lethal level of high pressure when preincubated under high pressure and low temperature.

Neural Injuries Induced by Hydrostatic Pressure Associated With Mass Effect after Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

Project description:Mass effect induced by growing hematoma is one of the mechanisms by which intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) may result in brain injuries. Our goal was to investigate the damage mechanism of hydrostatic pressure associated with mass effect and the cooperative effect of hydrostatic pressure plus hemoglobin on neural injuries. Loading hydrostatic pressure on neurons and injecting agarose gel in the right striatum of rats was performed to establish the in vitro and vivo ICH models, respectively. The elevated hydrostatic pressure associated with ICH suppressed neurons and neural tissues viability, and disturbed the axons and dendrites in vitro and vivo. Moreover, hydrostatic pressure could upregulate the expression of cleaved-caspase-3 and BAX, and downregulate Bcl-2 and Bcl-xL. Meanwhile, the toxicity of hemoglobin would be enhanced when conducted with hydrostatic pressure together. Furthermore, the exclusive hydrostatic pressure could upregulate the Piezo-2 expression, which reached a plateau at 8 h after ICH. And hemoglobin increased Piezo-2 expression significantly in vivo, and that was also promoted significantly by the elevated volume of Gel in the cooperative groups. Results indicated that hydrostatic pressure induced by mass effect not only gave rise to brain injuries directly, but also increased the toxicity of hemoglobin in the progress of secondary brain injury after ICH.

The effect of the rate of hydrostatic pressure depressurization on cells in culture.

Project description:Changes in hydrostatic pressure, at levels as low as 10 mm Hg, have been reported in some studies to alter cell function in vitro; however, other studies have found no detectable changes using similar methodologies. We here investigate the hypothesis that the rate of depressurization, rather than elevated hydrostatic pressure itself, may be responsible for these reported changes. Hydrostatic pressure (100 mm Hg above atmospheric pressure) was applied to bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) and PC12 neuronal cells using pressurized gas for periods ranging from 3 hours to 9 days, and then the system was either slowly (~30 minutes) or rapidly (~5 seconds) depressurized. Cell viability, apoptosis, proliferation, and F-actin distribution were then assayed. Our results did not show significant differences between rapidly and slowly depressurized cells that would explain differences previously reported in the literature. Moreover, we found no detectable effect of elevated hydrostatic pressure (with slow depressurization) on any measured variables. Our results do not confirm the findings of other groups that modest increases in hydrostatic pressure affect cell function, but we are not able to explain their findings.
