In our study, we used the Green-backed Tit (Parus monticolus) to explore the resolving ability of these two types of markers. The south-western and central mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) phylogroups were divergent to some extent in sequence-based nuclear data, while mixed together in microsatellites data. The F ST values among clades were about four times lower in microsatellite loci than those in sequence-based nuclear loci. We are of the opinion that size homoplasy may have contributed to the inability of microsatellites to uncover differentiation. Our results suggest that sequence-based nuclear loci outperformed microsatellite loci in detecting population structures, especially those focused on populations with large effective population sizes. There was no significant correlation between F ST values and allelic size variability, which suggested that the efficiency of microsatellite loci in detecting genetic structure may be independent of their polymorphism. F ST is better than R ST in detecting intraspecific divergence due to the high variance of R ST . In agreement with sequence-based nuclear loci, microsatellite loci did resolve the genetic distinctness of the Taiwan Residents phylogroup. The genetic differentiation between the Taiwan Residents and continental clades may involve allopatric divergence without gene flow.展开更多

METHODS: Sixty rats with TNBS-induced colitis were treated with 2.0% curcumin in the diet. Thirty positive control rats were treated with 0.5% sulfasalazine (SASP). Thirty negative control rats and thirty model rats were treated with general diet. Changes of body weight together with histological scores were evaluated. Survival rates were also evaluated. Cell nuclear NF-κB activity in colonic mucosa was evaluated by using electrophoretic mobility shift assay. Cytoplasmic IκB protein in colonic mucosa was detected by using Western Blot analysis. Cytokine messenger expression in colonic tissue was assessed by using semiquantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: Treatment with curcumin could prevent and treat both wasting and histopathologic signs of rats with TNBS-induced intestinal inflammation. In accordance with these findings, NF-κB activation in colonic mucosa was suppressed in the curcumin-treated groups. Degradations of cytoplasmic IκB protein in colonic mucosa were blocked by curcumin treatment. Proinflammatory cytokine messenger RNA expression in colonic mucosa was also suppressed. CONCLUSION: This study shows that NF-κB inhibitor curcumin could prevent and improve experimental colitis in murine model with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The findings suggest that NF-κB inhibitor curcumin could be a potential target for the patients with IBD.展开更多

METHODS: TNBS of 0.6 mL was mixed with ethanol of 0.3 mL solution and instilled into the lumen of the rat colon. The rat models were divided into 6 groups, which were killed at 24 h, 3, 7,14, and 21 d after enema. Colonic inflammation and damage were assessed by macroscopical and histological criteria. Activity of NF-κB DNA-binding was analyzed by electrophoresis mobility shift assays (EMSA). Expression of ICAM-1 was detected by in situ hybridization (ISH) and immunohistochemistry (IH). Then various doses of PDTC were injected into rat abdomen 30 min before enema with TNBS/ethanol as pretreatment. The rats were killed 4 h after enema and the colonic inflammation, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) level, and DNA-binding activity of NF-κB were assessed. Finally, PDTC was injected intraperitoneally after colitis was induced. Changes of morphology were assayed. RESULTS: During the first week, hyperemia, hemorrhage, edema and ulceration of the colonic mucosa appeared with predominant infiltration of leukocytes. Neutrophils, macrophages, lymphocytes infiltrated in mucosa and submucosa 14 d later. Fibroblasts and granuloma-like structures were also obviously seen. The binding activity of NF-κB began to increase at 24 h time point and reached a peak at 14 d, then decreased but still was higher than control group at 21 d (P<0.01). Levels of ICAM-1 mRNA and protein significantly elevated at 24 h and the peak was at 21 d. Pretreatment with PDTC could attenuate the development of inflammation but not by reducing NF-KB activity. This attenuation of inflammation had a positive relationship with the dose of PDTC. PDTC at the dose of 100 mg/kg had no therapeutic effect after colitis was induced. CONCLUSION: NF-κB activation is an important event that may be involved in acute and chronic inflammation development and may contribute to self-protection against early inflammation damage. NF-κB also regulates ICAM-1 expression during colonic inflammation. Pretreatment of PDTC may attenuate the inflammation development. But PDTC has no therapeutic effect after the colitis is induced.展开更多
