The energy required to drive photochemical reactions is derived from charge separation across the thylakoid membrane. As the consequence of difference in proton concentration between chloroplasts stroma and thylakoid lumen, a proton motive force (pmf) is generated. The pmf is composed out of the proton gradient (ΔpH) and membrane potential (ΔΨ), and together they drive the ATP synthesis. In nature, the amount of energy fueling photosynthesis varies due to frequent changes in the light intensity. Thylakoid ion transport can adapt the energy flow through a photosynthetic apparatus to the light availability by adjusting the pmf composition. Dissipation of ΔΨ reduces the charge recombination at the photosystem II, allowing for an increase in ΔpH component to trigger a feedback downregulation of photosynthesis. K+ Exchange Antiporter 3 (KEA3) driven K+/H+ antiport reduces the ΔpH fraction of pmf, thereby dampening a non-photochemical quenching (NPQ). As a result, it increases the photosynthesis efficiency during the transition to lower light intensity. This thesis aimed to find the answers for questions concerning KEA3 activity regulation and its role in plant development. Presented data shows that in plants lacking chloroplast ATP synthase assembly factor CGL160 with decreased ATP synthase activity, KEA3 has a pivotal role in photosynthesis regulation and plant growth during steady-state conditions. Lack of KEA3 in cgl160 mutant results in a strong growth impairment, as photosynthesis is limited due to increased pH-dependent NPQ and decreased electron flow through cytochrome b6f complex. Overexpression of KEA3 in cgl160 mutant increases charge recombination at photosystem II, promoting photosynthesis. Thus, during periods of low ATP synthase activity, plants benefit from KEA3 activity. The KEA3 undergoes dimerization via its regulatory C-terminus (RCT). The RCT responds to changes in light intensity as the plants expressing KEA3 without this domain show reduced photo-protective mechanism in light intensity transients. However, those plants fix more carbon during the photosynthesis induction phase as a trade-off for a long-term photoprotection, showing KEA3 regulatory role in plant development. The KEA3 RCT is facing thylakoid stroma, thus its regulation depends on light-induced changes in the stromal environment. KEA3 activity regulation overlaps with the stromal pH changes occurring during light fluctuations. The ATP and ADP has shown to have an affinity towards heterologously expressed KEA3 RCT. Such interaction causes conformational changes in RCT structure. The fold change of RCT-ligand interaction depends on the environmental pH value. With a combination of bioinformatics and in vitro approach, the ATP binding site at RCT was located. Introduction of binding site point mutation in planta KEA3 RCT resulted in antiporter activity deregulation during transition to low light. Together, the data presented in this thesis allowed us to assess more broadly a KEA3 role in photosynthesis adjustment and propose the models of KEA3 activity regulation throughout transition in light intensity.
Leonhard Frank (1882-1961) hat bereits ein an Erfahrungen reiches Leben hinter sich, als er 1950 nach Deutschland zurückkehrt. Das langjährige Exil lässt der Schriftsteller nicht zuletzt aufgrund mangelnder Veröffentlichungs- und Verdienstmöglichkeiten sowie einer rigiden Immigrationsgesetzgebung in den USA hinter sich. Vor allem jedoch zieht es ihn in seine Heimat als das Land seiner Sprache zurück. Und nur hier weiß er sein Publikum, dessen Resonanz er als existenziell empfindet.
In dieser Studie werden die Bemühungen nachvollzogen, die ein während der Weimarer Republik renommierter und ökonomisch erfolgreicher Autor nach dem erzwungenen Exil während der Zeit des Nationalsozialismus unternimmt, um als linker Schriftsteller seine Position innerhalb der besonderen literarischen und kulturpolitischen Bedingungen in der BRD und der DDR im Jahrzehnt der 1950er Jahre zu finden. Ausgehend von umfangreichen Archivmaterialien werden die Lebens- und Arbeitsumstände Franks in seinem letzten Lebensjahrzehnt in die jeweiligen biographischen, sozialen, politischen und kulturellen Kontexte gesetzt.
Besondere Aufmerksamkeit erfährt dabei die Besonderheit, dass Frank als Bürger der Bundesrepublik fortdauernde Beziehungen zu Institutionen und Personen in der DDR unterhielt. Aus dieser Konstellation resultiert eingedenk der politisch-historischen Prozesse, in die sie sich einbettete, ein Spannungsfeld, dessen Spezifika transparent gemacht werden.
This thesis focuses on the synthesis of novel functional materials based on plasmonic nanoparticles. Three systems with targeted surface modification and functionalization have been designed and synthesized, involving modified perylenediimide doped silica-coated silver nanowires, polydopamine or TiO2 coated gold-palladium nanorods and thiolated poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG-SH)/dodecanethiol (DDT) modified silver nanospheres. Their possible applications as plasmonic resonators, chiral sensors as well as photo-catalysts have been studied. In addition, the interaction between silver nanospheres and 2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane (F4TCNQ) molecules has also been investigated in detail.
In the first part of the thesis, surface modification on Ag nanowires (NWs) with optimized silica coating through a modified Stöber method has been firstly conducted, employing sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to replace ammonia solution (NH4OH). The coated silver nanowires with a smooth silica shell have been investigated by single-particle dark-field scattering spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and electron-energy loss spectroscopy to characterize the morphologies and structural components. The silica-coated silver nanowires can be further functionalized with fluorescent molecules in the silica shell via a facile one-step coating method. The as-synthesized nanowire is further coupled with a gold nanosphere by spin-coating for the application of the sub-diffractional chiral sensor for the first time. The exciton-plasmon-photon interconversion in the system eases the signal detection in the perfectly matched 1D nanostructure and contributes to the high contrast of the subwavelength chiral sensing for the polarized light.
In the second part of the thesis, dumbbell-shaped Au-Pd nanorods coated with a layer of polydopamine (PDA) or titanium dioxide (TiO2) have been constructed. The PDA- and TiO2- coated Au-Pd nanorods show a strong photothermal conversion performance under NIR illumination. Moreover, the catalytic performance of the particles has been investigated using the reduction of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) as the model reaction. Under light irradiation, the PDA-coated Au-Pd nanorods exhibit a superior catalytic activity by increasing the reaction rate constant of 3 times. The Arrhenius-like behavior of the reaction with similar activation energies in the presence and absence of light irradiation indicates the photoheating effect to be the dominant mechanism of the reaction acceleration. Thus, we attribute the enhanced performance of the catalysis to the strong photothermal effect that is driven by the optical excitation of the gold surface plasmon as well as the synergy with the PDA layer.
In the third part, the kinetic study on the adsorption of 2,3,5,6-Tetrafluoro-7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquino-dimethane (F4TCNQ) on the surface of Ag nanoparticles (Ag NPs) in chloroform has been reported in detail. Based on the results obtained from the UV-vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryo-TEM), scanning nano-beam electron diffraction (NBED) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS), a two-step interaction kinetics has been proposed for the Ag NPs and F4TCNQ molecules. It includes the first step of electron transfer from Ag NPs to F4TCNQ indicated by the ionization of F4TCNQ, and the second step of the formation of Ag-F4TCNQ complex. The whole process has been followed via UV-vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy, which reveals distinct kinetics at two stages: the instantaneous ionization and the long-term complex formation. The kinetics and the influence of the molar ratio of Ag NPs/F4TCNQ molecules on the interaction between Ag NPs and F4TCNQ molecules in the organic solution are reported herein for the first time. Furthermore, the control experiment with silica-coated Ag NPs indicates that the charge transfer at the surface between Ag NPs and F4TCNQ molecules has been prohibited by a silica layer of 18 nm.
Shape-Memory effects of thermoplatic multiblock copolymers with overlapping thermal transitions
(2021)
Fibroblast growth differentiation factor 21 (FGF21) is known as a pivotal regulator of the glucose and lipid metabolism. As such, it is considered beneficial and has even been labelled a longevity hormone. Nevertheless, recent observational studies have shown that FGF21 is increased in higher age with possible negative effects such as loss of lean and bone mass as well as decreased survival. Hepatic FGF21 secretion can be induced by various nutritional stimuli such as starvation, high carbohydrate and fat intake as well as protein deficiency.. So far it is still unclear whether the FGF21 response to different macronutrients is altered in older age. An altered response would potentially contribute to explain the higher FGF21 concentrations found in older age. In this publication-based doctoral dissertation, a cross-sectional study as well as a dietary challenge were conducted to investigate the influence of nutrition on FGF21 concentrations and response in older age. In a cross-sectional study, FGF21 concentrations were assessed in older patients with and without cachexia anorexia syndrome anorexia syndrome compared to an older community-dwelling control group. Cachexia anorexia syndrome is a multifactorial syndrome frequently occurring in old age or in the context of an underlying disease. It is characterized by a severe involuntary weight loss, loss of appetite (anorexia) and reduced food intake, therefore representing a state of severe nutrient deficiency, in some aspects similar to starvation. The highest FGF21 concentrations were found in patients with cachexia anorexia syndrome. Moreover, FGF21 was positively correlated with weight loss and loss of appetite. In addition, cachexia anorexia syndrome itself was associated with FGF21 independent of sex, age and body mass index. As cachectic patients presumably exhibit protein malnutrition and FGF21 has been proposed a marker for protein insufficiency, the higher levels of FGF21 in patients with cachexia anorexia syndrome might be partly explained by insufficient protein intake. In order to investigate the acute response of FGF21 to different nutritional stimuli, a dietary challenge with a parallel group design was conducted. Here, healthy older (65-85 years) and younger (18-35 years) adults were randomized to one of four test meals: a dextrose drink, a high carbohydrate, high fat or high protein meal. Over the course of four hours, postprandial FGF21 concentrations (dynamics) were assessed and the FGF21 response (incremental area under the curve) to each test meal was examined.. In a sub-group of older and younger women, also the adiponectin response was investigated, as adiponectin is a known mediator of FGF21 effects on glucose and lipid metabolism. The dietary meal challenge revealed that dextrose and high carbohydrate intake result in higher FGF21 concentrations after four hours in older adults. This was partly explained by higher postprandial glucose concentrations in the old. For high fat ingestion no age differences were found. For the first time, acute FGF21 response to high protein intake was shown. Here, protein ingestion resulted in lower FGF21 concentrations in younger compared to older adults. Furthermore, sufficient protein intake, according to age-dependent recommendations, of the previous day, was associated with lower FGF21 concentrations in both age groups. The higher FGF21 response to dextrose ingestion resulted in a higher adiponectin response in older women, independent of fat mass, insulin resistance, triglyceride concentrations, inflammation and oxidative stress. Following the high fat meal, adiponectin concentrations declined in older women. Adiponectin response was not affected by meal composition in younger women. In summary, this thesis showed a positive association of FGF21 and cachexia anorexia syndrome with concomitant anorexia in older patients. Regarding the acute FGF21 response, a higher response following dextrose and carbohydrate ingestion was found in older compared with younger subjects. This might be attributed to a higher glucose response in older age. Furthermore, it was shown that the higher FGF21 response after dextrose ingestion possibly contributes to a higher adiponectin response in older women, independent of potential metabolic and inflammatory confounders. Acute protein ingestion resulted in a significant decrease in FGF21 concentrations. Moreover, protein intake of the previous day was inversely associated with fasting FGF21 concentrations. This might explain why FGF21 concentrations are higher in cachexia anorexia syndrome. These results therefore support the role of FGF21 as a sensor of protein restriction.
