ABSTRACT
Abstract Heart Failure (HF) has been one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Though its latent mechanism and therapeutic manipulation are updated and developed ceaselessly, there remain great gaps in the cognition of heart failure. High morbidity and readmission rates among HF patients are waiting to be addressed. Recent studies have found that myocardial energy metabolism was closely related to heart failure, in which substrate utilization, as well as intermediate metabolism disorders, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and mitochondrial dysfunction, might underlie systolic dysfunction and progression of HF. This article centers on the changes and counteraction of cardiac energy metabolism in the failing heart. Therefore, targeting impaired energy provision is of great potential in the treatment of HF. And shifting the objective from traditional neurohormones to improving the cellular environment is expected to further optimize the management of HF.
ABSTRACT
Industrial bioprocess is a complex systematic process and bio-manufacturing can be realized on the basis of understanding the metabolism process of living cells. In this article, the multi-scale optimization principle and practice of industrial fermentation process are reviewed, including multi-scale optimizing theory and equipment, on-line sensing technology for cellular macroscopic metabolism, and correlated analysis of physiological parameters. Furthermore, intelligent control of industrial bioprocess is further addressed, in terms of new sensing technology for intracellular physiological metabolism, big database establishment and data depth calculation, intelligent decision.

[Objective]To provide a reference for the effects of potassium on quality formation of medicinal material. [Methods] Withpotassium,traditional Chinese medicine,growth and development,physiological characteristicsandeffective medicinal substancesas the key words, from June 2012 to March 2017 in the Pub Med, CNKI, WANFANG, VIP, the effects of potassium on the growth and development, production and quality formations, plant physiology, resistance acquirement, medicinal substances in medicinal material were systematically summarized. [Results] A total of 71 articles were retrieved, of which there were 50 valid literatures. At present, the related researches mainly focus on the relationship between potassium and growth and development, yield and quality formation, effective medicinal substances metabolism of Chinese herbs. [Conclusion] Some progresses have been made in this field. But this paper pointed out the problems in this field and put forward the directions about further research of effective medicinal substances metabolism and its mechanism, establishing multiple factor, multilevel nolinear synthesis model.
