    Notes: Polycrystalline Fe100−xPtx alloy thin films with Pt composition x=25–67 at. % were prepared by dc magnetron sputtering on natural-oxidized silicon wafer substrates, then postannealed in vacuum at various temperatures and over different periods. The effects of film composition, magnetic layer thickness, annealing temperature, and annealing time on the magnetic properties parallel and normal to the film plane were investigated. Films with high in-plane coercivity could be obtained by annealing the films in the temperature range between 400 and 650 °C. Optimum in-plane squareness and coercivity of the film occurred at a film composition of Fe50Pt50 with thickness of about 200 nm after annealing at 600 °C for 30 min. The analyses of transmission electron microscopy diffraction patterns indicated that this annealed Fe50Pt50 film was nearly entirely in the fct γ1-FePt phase. The average grain size of this Fe50Pt50 film was about 85 nm. The grain size was almost independent of the cooling rate after annealing, but the magnetic hardening mechanism and coercivity of the annealed film was largely dependent on the cooling rate. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Description: Epidemiological studies have shown an etiological link between body mass index (BMI) and cancer risk, but evidence supporting these observations is limited. This study aimed to investigate potential associations of BMI with chromosome damage levels and lung cancer risk. First, we recruited 1333 male workers from a coke-oven plant to examine their chromosome damage levels; and then, a cohort study of 12 052 males was used to investigate the association of BMI with lung cancer incidence. We further carried out a meta-analysis for BMI and male lung cancer risk based on cohort studies. We found that men workers with excess body weight (BMI ≥ 25 kg/m2) had lower levels of MN frequencies than men with normal-weight (BMI: 18.5–24.9). Our cohort study indicated that, the relative risk (RR) for men with BMI ≥ 25 to develop lung cancer was 35% lower than RR for normal-weight men. Further meta-analysis showed that, compared to normal-weight men, men with BMI ≥ 25 had decreased risk of lung cancer among both the East-Asians and others populations. These results indicate that men with excess body weight had significant decreased chromosome damage levels and lower risk of lung cancer than those with normal-weight. However, further biological researches were needed to validate these associations. Scientific Reports 5 doi: 10.1038/srep09458

    Description: Low-dimensional carbon-based nanomaterials have recently received enormous attention for biomedical applications. However, increasing evidence indicates that they are cytotoxic and can cause inflammatory responses in the body. Here, we show that monocrystalline nanodiamonds (NDs) synthesized by high-pressure-high-temperature (HPHT) methods and purified by air oxidation and strong oxidative acid treatments have excellent hemocompatibility with negligible hemolytic and thrombogenic activities. Cell viability assays with human primary endothelial cells suggested that the oxidized HPHT-NDs (dimensions of 35–500 nm) are non-cytotoxic. No significant elevation of the inflammatory cytokine levels of IL-1β and IL-6 was detected in mice after intravenous injection of the nanocrystals in vivo. Using a hindlimb-ischemia mouse model, we demonstrated that 35-nm NDs after covalent conjugation with polyarginine are useful as a drug delivery vehicle of heparin for prolonged anticoagulation treatment. The present study lays a solid foundation for further therapeutic applications of NDs in biomedicine. Scientific Reports 3 doi: 10.1038/srep03044

    Description: Dendritic cell (DC)-based cancer immunotherapy has achieved modest clinical benefits, but several technical hurdles in DC preparation, activation, and cancer/testis antigen (CTA) delivery limit its broad applications. Here, we report the development of immortalized and constitutively activated human primary blood dendritic cell lines (ihv-DCs). The ihv-DCs are a subset of...
