Methods The soluble Fas ligand and soluble Fas levels in serum and peritoneal fluid of 20 infertile patients with endometriosis were assessed with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and were compared with 14 infertile patients due to chronic pelvic infectious disease and 16 fertile controls. Results The sFasL levels were significantly higher in infertile patients with endometriosis(175.09 ± 80.55 pg/mL in serum and 284.50 ± 152.38 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid)than those of infertile controls (88.47 ± 43.55 pg/mL in serum and 17.30 ± 9.62 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid)and fertile controls(16.13 ± 11.75 pg/mL in serum and 8.84 ± 2.31 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid). In contrast, as for the sFas levels, infertile patients with endometriosis(828.60 ± 429.65 pg/mL in serum and 349.61 ± 288.89 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid)did not show any significant difference compared with those in infertile patients resulting from pelvic infectious disease(868.75 ± 570.48 pg/mL in serum and 181.76 ± 157.78 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid)and fertile control(822.26 ± 129.12 pg/mL in serum and 318.42 ± 145.16 pg/mL in peritoneal fluid). Conclusions Based upon these results, high level of sFasL in serum and peritoneal fluid and thus apoptosis mediated by it may be implicated in the mechanism involved in endometriosis-related infertility.展开更多

[Method] Exogenous sodium nitroprusside was used to in the experiment. Under the condition of 20 ℃ and RH 95%, the optimal SNP concentration of broccoli was determined. [Result] The exogenous SNP could effectively maintain the quality of broccoli, inhabited the yellowing of broccoli and the increasing of cell membrane permeability, and maintain the soluble solids content, decreased the degradation rate of chlorophyll and delayed the loss of VC. [Conclusion] Exogenous sodium nitroprusside can effectively maintain the quality of broccoli to keep it fresh.展开更多

Both PBAA and FAA are milk protein precursors, and the rumen and small intestines are the main sites where such precursors are produced and absorbed. This work was designed to investigate the expression of the peptide transporter Pep T1 and the AA transporters ASCT2, y＋LAT1, and ATB0,＋, and the concentrations of PBAA, FAA, and soluble protein in the rumen, omasum, and duodenum of dairy cows. Tissues and digesta were collected from six healthy Chinese Holstein dairy cows immediately after the animals were slaughtered. The expression of transporters was analyzed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction（PCR）. The FAA concentration was assessed using an amino acid（AA） analyzer, PBAA concentration by quantification of AA before and after acid-hydrolysis by 6 mol/L HCl, and soluble protein concentration by quantification of the bicinchoninic acid content. The results showed that the relative abundance of m RNA of the transporters and the soluble non-ammonia nitrogen（SNAN） concentration of each fraction were greater in the duodenum than in the rumen or omasum. These results indicate that the duodenum is the predominant location within the nonmesenteric digestive tract for producing milk protein precursors. In addition, PBAA was the largest component of SNAN in the digesta from the rumen, omasum, and duodenum. In conclusion, the duodenum has the greatest concentrations of SNAN and PBAA, and the greatest potential for absorption of SNAN in the form of PBAA in the nonmesenteric gastrointestinal tissues of dairy cows.展开更多
