Aiming at exploring the wireless sensing network with mass processing in data collection, an embedded wireless sensor system based on ARM-Linux is put forward and designed. The whole system is mainly divided into wireless ZigBee sensing node group part, ARM data processing part, and virtual cloud desktop terminal part. Users’ terminal can be connected to the cloud system server through wired or wireless ways. And it is possible to view user system data and wireless terminal data by logging in to an individual account. The results showed that the system can be applied in a lot of fields, such as intelligent transportation, health care, smart home and so on. Based on the above findings, it is concluded that it is important for information aggregation and remote fast monitoring.
Epigenetic modifications are critical for cell differentiation and growth. As a regulator of H3K9 methylation, Setdb1 is implicated in osteoblast proliferation and differentiation. The activity and nucleus localization of Setdb1 are regulated by its binding partner, Atf7ip. However, whether Atf7ip is involved in the regulation of osteoblast differentiation remains largely unclear. In the present study, we found that Atf7ip expression was upregulated during the osteogenesis of primary bone marrow stromal cells and MC3T3-E1 cells, and was induced in PTH-treated cells. The overexpression of Atf7ip impaired osteoblast differentiation in MC3T3-E1 cells regardless of PTH treatment, as measured by the expression of osteoblast differentiation markers, Alp-positive cells, Alp activity, and calcium deposition. Conversely, the depletion of Atf7ip in MC3T3-E1 cells promoted osteoblast differentiation. Compared with the control mice, animals with Atf7ip deletion in the osteoblasts (Oc-Cre;Atf7ipf/f) showed more bone formation and a significant increase in the bone trabeculae microarchitecture, as reflected by μ-CT and bone histomorphometry. Mechanistically, Atf7ip contributed to the nucleus localization of Setdb1 in MC3T3-E1, but did not affect Setdb1 expression. Atf7ip negatively regulated Sp7 expression, and through specific siRNA, Sp7 knockdown attenuated the enhancing role of Atf7ip deletion in osteoblast differentiation. Through these data, we identified Atf7ip as a novel negative regulator of osteogenesis, possibly via its epigenetic regulation of Sp7 expression, and demonstrated that Atf7ip inhibition is a potential therapeutic measure for enhancing bone formation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
