Transformers are required to demonstrate the ability to withstand short circuit currents. Over currents caused by short circuit can give rise to windings deformation. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to monitor the state of transformer windings, which is achieved through on-line detecting the leakage inductance of the windings. Specifically, the mathematical model is established for on-line identifying the leakage inductance of the windings by applying least square algorithm (LSA) to the equivalent circuit equations. The effect of measurement and model inaccuracy on the identification error is analyzed, and the corrected model is also given to decrease these adverse effect on the results. Finally, dynamic test is carried out to verify our method. The test results clearly show that our method is very accurate even under the fluctuation of load or power factor. Therefore, our method can be effectively used to on-line detect the windings deformation.

BACKGROUND: Schwann cells are the seed cells of neural repair, and it is a key to harvest a large number of Schwann cells with high purity and activity. OBJECTIVE: To compare the in vitro culture, purification, and morphology of Schwann cells between neonatal and adult rats, and investigate a simple and feasible culture method to harvest high-purity Schwann cells. METHODS: Totally 30 Sprague-Dawley rats, comprising 20 neonatal (1-3 days after birth, neonatal group) and 10 adult (weighing 150-200 g, adult group) rats, were included. Following double-enzyme digestion and two incubations, Schwann cells were isolated and purified by differential attachment. Cell morphology and attaching speed were determined through the use of inverted microscope. Cells were counted and cell purity was calculated. Cell proliferative ability was detected by MTT microcolorimetry. Curves of cell proliferation in each group were depicted to determine proliferative speed. Schwann cells were identified by S-100 immunochemistry.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with fibroblasts, neonatal rat Schwann cells exhibited faster, while adult rat Schwann cells showed slower, attaching speed. Both neonatal and adult groups yielded over 96% cell purity. MTT microcolorimetry results revealed that Schwann cells proliferated actively in neonatal and adult groups. Cell proliferative curves show that neonatal rat Schwann cells proliferated faster than adult rat Schwann cells (P < 0.05). S-100 immunochemistry results showed positive results in both groups. All these findings suggest that double-enzyme digestion and two incubations followed by differential attachment is a satisfactory method to harvest considerable Schwann cells with high purity and activity. Neonatal rat Schwann cells show stronger proliferative, attaching capacities than adult rat Schwann cells.

Background and purpose:Multiple primary lung cancers (MPLC) is a rare entity, but recently there has been a gradual increase in the number of patients diagnosed with MPLC. The aim of this study is to investigate the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of MPLC through analyzing the clinical data.Methods:Forty-one patients were diagnosed MPLC by Martini-Melamed criteria. Their clinicopathological data were retrospectively reviewed. Results:There were 3 patients with triple primary lung cancer and 38 patients with double primary lung cancer. There were 13 patients with synchronous MPLC, 26 patients with metachronous MPLC, 2 patients with synchronous and metachronous MPLC. Of 85 lesions, the surgical procedures were mainly lobectomy (78.8%, 67/85). Lesions (41.2%, 35/85) were frequently in right upper lobe. Pathological type was mainly adenocarcinoma (70.6%, 60/85),followed by squamous cell carcinoma (17.6%, 15/85). Of 60 adenocarcinoma specimens, the papillary predominant subtype was more common (50%, 30/60). Eighty percent (68/85) of the lesions were stage I. As to the initial cancer and repeated cancer, patients who shared the same pathological type (68.3%, 28/41) were more than the different (31.7%, 13/41), of which adenocarcinoma-adenocarcinoma was most common(82.1%, 23/28). Lesions located in contralateral lobes were in 37 patients (90.2%), and located in ipsilateral different lobes were in 4 patients (9.8%). The 2-year overall survival (OS) of them was 87.8%. Survival analysis showed that the prognosis of patients with same pathological type was better than patients with different pathological type (P=0.037), the prognosis of patients with no lymph node metastasis was better than patients with N1,N2 metastasis (P=0.02).Conclusion:Lesions in patients with multiple primary lung cancers are more frequently in the right upper lobes. The pathology type is mainly adenocarcinoma, of which the papillary predominant subtype was most common. Early diagnosis improves continuously, active treatment with operation can achieve better prognosis.

Background and purpose: Multidrug resistance (MDR) is the dominating obstacle to the chemotherapy. There is strong evidence that the phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) signaling pathway is involved in MDR phenotype, however, the mechanism of MDR occurrence is still unknown. This study tended to investigate the regulating effect of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway and its downstream target genes in P-glycoprotein (P-gp) (ABCB1 gene encoding)-mediated MDR in human colon carcinoma HCT-116/L-OHP cells. Methods:Pretreatment with PI3K selective inhibitor LY294002 (20μmol/L) for 2 h, the sensitivity of L-OHP was evaluated by the CCK-8 (cell counting kit-8) assay in HCT-116/L-OHP cells, and the expressions of P-gp, LRP, MRP-2, Akt, p-Akt, IκB and p-IκB were evaluated by Western blot. The activity of ABCB1 promoter was evaluated by chromatin immunoprecipitation analysis (CHIP). Results: After inhibiting the activity of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, the IC50 value of L-OHP decreased from(157.48±16.73)μg/mL to (53.68±3.18)μg/mL in HCT-116/L-OHP cells, and the reversal index was 2.93 (P<0.01). The expressions of P-gp, p-Akt and p-IκB were down-regulation compared with the concrol group (P<0.01), but the expressions of LRP, MRP-2, Akt and IκB didn't change signiifcantly. CHIP result has conifrmed that NF-κB protein could bind to the region of ABCB1 gene promoter in HCT116/L-OHP cells. Conclusion:Blocking of PI3K/Akt/NF-kB signal pathway could increase the drug sensitivity to MDR cells, inhibit the phosphorylation of p-Akt and p-IκB, and reversing ABCB1/P-glycoprotein-mediated multidrug resistance in colon carcinoma cells.
