The primary objective of this study was to compare the association between adiposity indices and obesity-related diseases or mortality risk, as well we wanted to show the association patterns or shapes. The established 4 or 5 categories of BMI is useful for clinical application, however, those categorization was limited to display the association patterns. Thus, we used more detailed categorization of BMI and corresponding categorization of each indices. BMI was categorized into 10 groups: <18.5, 18.5–20, 20–21.5, 21.5–23, 23–25, 25–26.5, 26.5–28, 28–30, 30–32.5, ≥32.5 kg/m2, where the fifth group (23–25) was the reference group. The 10 groups consisted of 3.99%, 8.21%, 13.50%, 17.71%, 24.53%, 13.87%, 8.65%, 5.81%, 2.67%, and 1.06%, respectively. WC, WHR, ABSI, and WWI were also categorized into 10 groups so that the distribution of the 10 groups was approximately the same as that of BMI for fair comparisons of prediction ability (Table 1).

Ten groups of adiposity indices with the 5th group as the reference.

The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Japanese Foundation for Sleep and Health Sciences, Tokyo, Japan. The study was conducted as part of a web-based, cross-sectional questionnaire survey on sleep health in the Japanese general population in February 2015. In this survey, participants were recruited by Rakuten Research Inc., an online marketing research company employing approximately 2.3 million Japanese individuals. An e-mail containing a link to the online questionnaire was randomly sent to individuals throughout Japan who were stratified by district, gender, and age. Participants’ age ranged from 20 to 69 years. A total of 10,000 completed responses to the questionnaire were received. Part of this pooled data has been published elsewhere [18 (link)]. Among the respondents, 4505 (3160 males, 1345 females; 43.57 ± 11.63 years) general workers who had completed the questionnaire and who had a sleep debt index (SDI) score (discrepancy between self-reported ideal and real sleep time) and SJL score of zero or more, both of which were calculated by the following method (Figure 1), were selected and analyzed. In general, the percentage with SDI <0 and SJL <0 were very low [19 (link)]. It was suggested that participants with a negative value constitute a discrete population with atypical characteristic features [20 (link)]. Based on the findings, the present study decided the exclusion criteria.

Additional detail concerning the survey and variables analyzed here are presented in Huang et al. 2009 [34 (link)]. This study is based on a subset of data from the 2001 California Health Interview Survey (CHIS). This large (N = 55,428 households) random digit dial telephone survey in California is administered in seven languages (English, Spanish, Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Korean and Khmer) and had a response rate, based on the American Association for Public Opinion Research equation RR4 [35 ], of 43.3% with a cooperation rate of 63.7% (weighted to account for the sample design) and 77.1% (unweighted).
We studied residents of San Diego and Los Angeles counties where over 70% of survey respondents supplied the name of the nearest intersection to their residence (In LA County, 8728/12196 = 71.5%, and in SD County 1952/2672 = 73%). These addresses were geocoded to represent the location of each respondent for purposes of this analysis. After exclusion of respondents with missing or invalid data, 8506 respondents from LA and 1883 respondents from SD were used in the analysis. These two counties were the only ones with nearest intersection data available in CHIS 2001.
The paper has two sections. In the first, we characterize street connectivity based on GIS-derived measures from buffers around the nearest intersections to respondents homes. In the second section we used a combination of CHIS variables, Census data, and the street connectivity data in a model-based analysis to explore the relative contributions of street connectivity and other variables to active transportation (AT).

In Study 1A, we examined corticosterone and T levels in plasma, whole blood and RBC (n = 12 subjects for corticosterone, 6 separate subjects for T). Blood samples (∼150 µl) were collected from the brachial vein using three heparinized microhematocrit tubes. Samples were obtained within 1.52 to 5.57 min (mean ± SEM  = 2.79±0.28 min) of initial disturbance. The blood in one tube was used to measure steroids in whole blood, and blood in the other two tubes was pooled and centrifuged to separate plasma and RBC. Blood was centrifuged for 10 min at 13,500 g, after which plasma was removed. Some plasma was likely still present in the RBC pellet [17] (link). Whole blood, plasma, and RBC (∼50 µl each) were stored at −20°C. All subjects were sampled between 0800 and 0900 h to control for possible diel variation in steroid levels.
In Study 1B, we examined baseline and stressed levels of corticosterone in plasma, whole blood, and RBC. Blood samples were collected from the brachial vein. Baseline samples (n = 6) were all obtained within 3 min (2.20±0.25 min); samples collected in this time have baseline corticosterone concentrations [18] . Stressed samples were obtained from separate individuals (n = 5) after 60 min (63.43±0.59 min) of restraint in an opaque cloth bag. The same subjects could not be bled at both baseline and after 60 min, because of the quantity of blood required and the small size of zebra finches. In zebra finches, plasma CBG levels decrease after 60 min of restraint [15] (link), which might affect the compartmentalization of corticosterone between plasma and RBC. All subjects were sampled between 0800 and 0930 h.
For Studies 1A and 1B, steroid concentrations are given in ng/g, as RBC samples were weighed to determine the amount of tissue. For plasma and whole blood samples, ng/g measurements are nearly equivalent to ng/ml ([2] and unpub. results). For each subject, the amounts of plasma, whole blood, and RBC extracted and assayed were the same, except for two stressed subjects in Study 1B. For these two subjects, smaller (but equal) amounts of plasma and whole blood were used, since the steroid values were greater than the maximum point on the standard curve in an initial attempt.

Example 7

The MTT Cell Proliferation assay determines cell survival following apple stem cell extract treatment. The purpose was to evaluate the potential anti-tumor activity of apple stem cell extracts as well as to evaluate the dose-dependent cell cytotoxicity.

Principle: Treated cells are exposed to 3-(4,5-dimethythiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium bromide (MTT). MTT enters living cells and passes into the mitochondria where it is reduced by mitochondrial succinate dehydrogenase to an insoluble, colored (dark purple) formazan product. The cells are then solubilized with DMSO and the released, solubilized formazan is measured spectrophotometrically. The MTT assay measures cell viability based on the generation of reducing equivalents. Reduction of MTT only occurs in metabolically active cells, so the level of activity is a measure of the viability of the cells. The percentage cell viability is calculated against untreated cells.

Method: A549 and NCI-H520 lung cancer cell lines and L132 lung epithelial cell line were used to determine the plant stem cell treatment tumor-specific cytotoxicity. The cell lines were maintained in Minimal Essential Media supplemented with 10% FBS, penicillin (100 U/ml) and streptomycin (100 μg/ml) in a 5% CO2 at 37 Celsius. Cells were seeded at 5×103 cells/well in 96-well plates and incubated for 48 hours. Triplicates of eight concentrations of the apple stem cell extract were added to the media and cells were incubated for 24 hours. This was followed by removal of media and subsequent washing with the phosphate saline solution. Cell proliferation was measured using the MTT Cell Proliferation Kit I (Boehringer Mannheim, Indianapolis, IN) New medium containing 50 μl of MTT solution (5 mg/ml) was added to each well and cultures were incubated a further 4 hours. Following this incubation, DMSO was added and the cell viability was determined by the absorbance at 570 nm by a microplate reader.

In order to determine the effectiveness of apple stem cell extracts as an anti-tumor biological agent, an MTT assay was carried out and IC50 values were calculated. IC50 is the half maximal inhibitory function concentration of a drug or compound required to inhibit a biological process. The measured process is cell death.

Apple stem cell extracts killed lung cancer cells lines A549 and NCI-H520 at relatively low doses: IC50s were 12.58 and 10.21 μg/ml respectively as compared to 127.46 μg/ml for the lung epithelial cell line L132. Near complete anti-tumor activity was seen at a dose of 250 μg/ml in both the lung cancer cell lines. This same dose spared more than one half of the L132 cells. See Tables 7-10. The data revealed that apple stem cell extract is cytotoxic to lung cancer cells while sparing lung epithelial cells. FIG. 6 shows a graphical representation of cytotoxicity activity of apple stem cell extracts on lung tumor cell lines A549, NCIH520 and on L132 lung epithelial cell line (marked “Normal”). The γ-axis is the mean % of cells killed by the indicated treatment compared to unexposed cells. The difference in cytotoxicity levels was statistically significant at p≤05.

Example 9

The experiment of Example 7 was repeated substituting other plant materials for ASC. Plant stem cell materials included Dandelion Root Extract (DRE), Aloe Vera Juice (AVJ), Apple Fiber Powder (AFP), Ginkgo Leaf Extract (GLE), Lingonberry Stem Cells (LSC), Orchid Stem Cells (OSC) as described in Examples 1 and 2. The concentrations of plant materials used were nominally 250, 100, 50, 25, 6.25, 3.125, 1.562, and 0.781 μg/mL. These materials were tested only for cells the human lung epithelial cell line L132 (as a proxy for normal epithelial cells) and for cells of the human lung adenocarcinoma cell line A549 (as a proxy for lung cancer cells).

Example 1

A primary goal of the present invention was to develop yeast strains highly effective at metabolizing galactose. However, galactose-metabolizing yeasts are uncommon; yeasts typically prefer glucose, a carbohydrate source known to strongly suppress the expression of genes needed to metabolize other carbohydrates such as galactose (See Escalante-Chong et al., “Galactose metabolic genes in yeast respond to a ratio of galactose and glucose.” Proc Nat'l Acad Sci, USA 112:1636-41 (2015)). Wild type yeast strains may thus be prevented from utilizing any carbohydrates when glucose is present. Even if a yeast does have the capability to use other carbohydrate sources, it may occur late in the growth process, only after glucose has been completely depleted. Therefore, a particular type of galactose-metabolizing yeast was developed that degrades galactose in the presence of glucose. The present invention provides methods for adaptively evolving yeast according to this process.

To assess the ability of a yeast strain to degrade galactose, its growth was evaluated on media containing galactose in presence or absence of glucose. The following strains were tested: the commercially available strains Saccharomyces cerevisiae (N) (Natureland, Saccharomyces boulardii (SB) (Jarrow, Santa Fe Springs, CA), and Saccharomyces boulardii (B) (Biocodex, Redwood City, CA). Additional strains included in the screening were isolated from food containing large amounts of galactose such as dairy products and legumes stored at room temperature for over two weeks.

Cultures of various strains were initiated from a single colony on agar plates or from glycerol stocks, and grown in liquid YP medium (1% yeast extract, 2% peptone; Teknova) by incubation at 30° C. with agitation at 125 rpm (Murakami & Kaeberlein “Quantifying Yeast Chronological Life Span by Outgrowth of Aged Cells.” J Visual Exp (27) (2009)). Overnight yeast cultures initiated in duplicate in liquid YP medium were used as pre-cultures to initiate growth efficiency experiments in liquid CM (Synthetic Complete Minimal Medium, 0.5% Ammonium Sulfate, Teknova) containing 2% galactose alone as the sole carbon source, 2% glucose alone as the sole carbon source, or galactose and glucose. Culture growth of cultures set at 30° C. under static conditions was monitored over time by measuring optical density (OD) at 600 nm (OD600) using a spectrophotometer.

Growth—was evaluated for several strains. As illustrated in Table 1, one of the evolved clone exhibited the lowest doubling time, which remained at the same level independently of the carbohydrate source and growth conditions.

Example 2

The heavy stream from Example 1 was hydrotreated in a three-stage hydrotreater. The reaction conditions were: a weighted average bed temperature of 400° C., a pressure of 150 bar, a liquid hourly space velocity (LHSV) of 0.5 h−1, an H2/oil ratio 1200:1 (v/v), an oil flowrate of 300 ml/h, and an H2 flowrate of 360 L/h.

The first stage of the hydrotreater used a KFR-22 catalyst from Albemarle Co. to accomplish hydro-demetallization (HDM). The second stage of the hydrotreater used a KFR-33 catalyst from Albemarle Co. to accomplish hydro-desulfurization (HDS). The third stage of the hydrotreater used a KFR-70 catalyst from Albemarle Co. to accomplish hydro-dearomatization (HDA). The first, second, and third stages were discrete beds placed atop one another in a single reaction zone. The heavy stream flowed downward to the first stage, then to the second stage, and then to the third stage. Properties of this hydrotreated heavy stream are shown in Table 2 below.

An Advanced Cracking Evaluation (ACE) unit was used to simulate a down-flow FCC reaction zone with multiple inlet points. The ACE unit emulates commercial FCC process.

Prior to each experiment, the catalyst is loaded into the reactor and heated to the desired reaction temperature. N2 gas is fed through the feed injector from the bottom to keep catalyst particles fluidized. Once the catalyst bed temperature reaches within ±2° C. of the reaction temperature, the reaction can begin. Feed is then injected for a predetermined time (time-on-stream (TOS)). The desired catalyst-to-feed ratio is obtained by controlling the feed pump. The gaseous product is routed to the liquid receiver, where C5+ hydrocarbons are condensed and the remaining gases are routed to the gas receiver. After catalyst stripping is over, the reactor is heated to 700° C., and nitrogen was replaced with air to regenerate the catalyst. During regeneration, the released gas is routed to a CO2 analyzer. Coke yield is calculated from the flue gas flow rate and CO2 concentration. The above process was repeated for each of Examples 3(A) and 3(B).

The light stream from Example 1 was combined with the hydrotreated heavy stream from Example 2 to form a combined feed stream. The combined feed stream was fed to the ACE unit. A time-on-stream (TOS) of 75 seconds and a temperature of 675° C. was used. Fresh catalyst was steamed deactivated at 810° C. for 6 hours to resemble the equilibrium catalyst in the actual process. The steam deactivated catalyst was used in this reaction. It should be understood that TOS is directly proportional to residence time.
