Sodium formate induces development-dependent intestinal epithelial injury via necroptosis and apoptosis by Jingjing Wei, Yuan Tian, Meiqi Guan, Jinshu Wei, Yong Ji, Guozhong Tao, Karl G. Sylvester

“…Mice were sacrificed after 24 h of feces collection, and the blood and small intestinal tissues were collected to detect the pathological damage of intestinal tissue, intestinal permeability, oxidative stress indicators including SOD, HO-1, MDA, and 4-HNE, inflammatory cytokines including IL-1β, TNF-α and IL-6, mitochondrial function such as ATP and PGC-1α in mice intestinal tissue, indicators of the cell death modes including necroptosis-related protein RIPK1 and p-MLKL, and apoptosis- related protein cleaved-caspase-3 and p-AKT (S473).Results NaF treatment significantly damaged intestinal epithelial tissue and barrier function, caused mitochondrial dysfunction, manifesting as decreased ATP and PGC-1α levels, increased lipid peroxidation products MDA and 4-HNE, depleted antioxidant enzyme SOD, and upregulated the expression of HO-1. …”

Concept of Vector Multicomponent Physical Quantities, Models and Measurement Method by V. N. Nesterov

“…There are three positions of this conception in this paper, which are formulated as follows: vector multicomponent physical quantities are considered as functions of the set of their constituent information components; the communication functions of the specified information components in the models of multicomponent physical quantities are determined by the laws of vector algebra; information models of vector multicomponent physical quantities allow an alternative representation of information components depending on the selected coordinate system.The mathematical model of the vector multicomponent physical quantity is presented. …”
