Methods DNA adduct 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) was used as a biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. The level of 8-OHdG in DNA exposed to ETSS was detected by high performance liquid chromatography with electrochemical detection. Organic and inorganic components in ETSS were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrum and atomic absorption spectrum respectively. Results Particle matters (PMs) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in ETSS could directly induce oxidative DNA damage and formation of 8-OHdG. There were 123 and 84 kinds of organic components in PMs and VOCs respectively, and 7 kinds of inorganic components in ETSS. Some components, especially quinones and polyphenols in ETSS, could produce free radicals in vitro by auto-oxidation without any biological activity systems, and with the catalytic reaction of metals, the DNA adduct 8-OHdG was produced. Conclusion ETSS have biological oxidative effect on DNA in vitro and in vivo, and expressed direct genotoxicity. 8-OHdG is a valuable biomarker of oxidative DNA damage.展开更多

Here we show that a moderate elevation of endogenous abscisic acid(ABA) levels by RNAi-mediated suppression of Os ABA8 ox1(Os ABA8 ox1-kd), a key ABA catabolic gene, significantly increased tolerance to SA stress in rice plants. We produced Os ABA8 ox1-kd lines in two different japonica cultivars, Dongdao 4 and Nipponbare. Compared with nontransgenic control plants(WT), the Os ABA8 ox1-kd seedlings accumulated 25.9%–55.7% higher levels of endogenous ABA and exhibited reduced plasmalemma injury, ROS accumulation and Na;/K;ratio, and higher survival rates, under hydroponic alkaline conditions simulated by 10, 15, and 20 mmol L-1 of Na;CO;. In pot trials using SA field soils of different alkali levels(p H 7.59, 8.86, and 9.29), Os ABA8 ox1–kd plants showed markedly higher seedling survival rates and more vigorous plant growth, resulting in significantly higher yield components including panicle number(85.7%–128.6%), spikelets per panicle(36.9%–61.9%), branches(153.9%–236.7%), 1000–kernel weight(20.0%–28.6%), and percentage of filled spikelets(96.6%–1340.8%) at harvest time. Under severe SA soil conditions(p H = 9.29, EC = 834.4 μS cm-1),Os ABA8 ox1-kd lines showed an 194.5%–1090.8% increase in grain yield per plant relative to WT plants.These results suggest that suppression of Os ABA8 ox1 to increase endogenous ABA levels provides a new molecular approach for improving rice yield in SA paddies.展开更多

Methods: Plasma and bone marrow mononuclear cell (MNC) culture supernatant IL-6, sgp130, IL-8 concentration of 18 cases with APL were kinetically measured in vivo and in vitro (ELISA). Bone marrow MNC IL-8RA was measured by flow cytometry after being cultured with ATRA (10?6mmol/L). Results: Plasma IL-6, sgp130, IL-8 levels were higher than normal (P<0.05), IL-6, spg130 levels correlated with white blood cell (WBC) counts (P<0.05) while IL-8 levels correlated with body temperature (P<0.05) at initial diagnosis. After 72-hour incubation with ATRA, concentration of IL-6 of bone marrow MNC culture supernatant did not change, that of sgp130 mildly decreased, and IL-8 significantly decreased while the positive rate of IL-8RA on bone marrow MNC increased. During ATRA treatment, plasma IL-6 changes were correlated with WBC counts. Peak levels of IL-6 and WBC were lower in patients who received intermittent therapy than those who received continuous therapy. Plasma IL-6 and IL-8 were increased when complicated with infection and IL-8 seemed more sensitive. Conclusion: Plasma IL-6, sgp130, IL-8 levels may reflect patients' responsiveness to ATRA treatment, and could be used to predict hyperleukocytosis and intercurrent infection. ATRA induces APL cell differentiation possibly via sgp130 signal transducer chain. Measurement of sgp130 had certain meaning to prognosis.展开更多

AA is a member of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Numerous studies have demonstrated that various contents of PUFAs can modulate the inflammatory responses. However, fewer studies have examined n-9PUFAs and their effects on the inflammatory responses. In the present study, the role of 5,8,11-cis-eicosatrienoic acid (ETrA;20:3 n-9, also called Mead acid) in the inflammatory responses has been investigated. The anti-inflammatory activities of ETrA were examined using an in vitro macrophage system and the inhibitory effect was confirmed by western blot analysis for iNOS and COX-2 expressions. The interactions between ETrA and COX-2 protein were simulated to produce a computer modeling protein-ligand complexes and the results suggest a possible mechanism for the effects of ETrA. In this study, we described a significant inhibition of the inflammatory activities initiated by ETrA. Since ETrA is a substance presented in the tissues of young animals, we therefore anticipate that ETrA can be utilized as a natural therapeutic supplement to inhibit inflammatory activities.展开更多

文摘Saline–alkaline(SA) stress is characterized by high salinity and high alkalinity(high p H), which severely inhibit plant growth and cause huge losses in crop yields worldwide. Here we show that a moderate elevation of endogenous abscisic acid(ABA) levels by RNAi-mediated suppression of Os ABA8 ox1(Os ABA8 ox1-kd), a key ABA catabolic gene, significantly increased tolerance to SA stress in rice plants. We produced Os ABA8 ox1-kd lines in two different japonica cultivars, Dongdao 4 and Nipponbare.

After 72-hour incubation with ATRA, concentration of IL-6 of bone marrow MNC culture supernatant did not change, that of sgp130 mildly decreased, and IL-8 significantly decreased while the positive rate of IL-8RA on bone marrow MNC increased. During ATRA treatment, plasma IL-6 changes were correlated with WBC counts. Peak levels of IL-6 and WBC were lower in patients who received intermittent therapy than those who received continuous therapy. Plasma IL-6 and IL-8 were increased when complicated with infection and IL-8 seemed more sensitive. Conclusion: Plasma IL-6, sgp130, IL-8 levels may reflect patients' responsiveness to ATRA treatment, and could be used to predict hyperleukocytosis and intercurrent infection. ATRA induces APL cell differentiation possibly via sgp130 signal transducer chain. Measurement of sgp130 had certain meaning to prognosis.
文摘Two coordinate reactions, NdCl 3·6H 2O(s) +3CCl 3COOH(s)( or TCA) =Nd(TCA) 3·3H 2O(s) +3HCl(g) +3H 2O(l) and Nd(TCA) 3·3H 2O(s) +2C 9H 7NO(s)= Nd(TCA)(C 9H 6NO) 2 (s) +2CCl 3COOH(s) +3H 2O(l), were studied by the classical solution calorimetry at 298.15K. The molar dissolution enthalpies of the reactants and the products in certain solvent (the first reaction in 1 mol·L -1 HCl, the second in a mixed solution consisting of absolute ethyl alcohol, dimethyl sulfoxide and 4 mol·L -1 HCl ) were measured by using an isoperibol calorimeter at 298.15K . From the results and other auxiliary quantities, the standard molar formation enthalpies of [Nd(TCA) 3·3H 2O,s,298.15K] and [Nd(TCA) (C 9H 6NO) 2 ,s, 298.15K] are determined as Δ fH m °[Nd(TCA) 3·3H 2O,s,298.15K]= -3053.3 kJ·mol -1 and Δ fH m° [Nd(TCA) (C 9H 6NO) 2 ,s, 298.15K] = -1355.6 kJ·mol -1 .

文摘A new fluorescent reagent, 7 (8 hydroxy 3, 6 disulfonaphthylazo) 8 hydroxyquinoline 5 sulfonic acid (HDNHQ) for the determination of magnesium has been developed. It reacted with magnesium to form a 1∶1 fluorescent complex with λ ex / λ em =356/495 nm immediately at room temperature in ammonia ammonium chloride buffer (pH 10.7). A linear relationship was obtained in the magnesium concentration range of 0 160 ng·mL -1 with the detection limit of 0.04 ng·mL -1 . The proposed method was simple, rapid and sensitive. It has been successfully applied to the determination of trace magnesium in blood serum with recoveries of 103.75% and 98.16%, respectively.

文摘The main eicosanoids inflammatory mediators, prostaglandins and leukotrienes, are both generated from arachidonic acid (AA;20:4 n-6). AA is a member of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Numerous studies have demonstrated that various contents of PUFAs can modulate the inflammatory responses. However, fewer studies have examined n-9PUFAs and their effects on the inflammatory responses. In the present study, the role of 5,8,11-cis-eicosatrienoic acid (ETrA;20:3 n-9, also called Mead acid) in the inflammatory responses has been investigated. The anti-inflammatory activities of ETrA were examined using an in vitro macrophage system and the inhibitory effect was confirmed by western blot analysis for iNOS and COX-2 expressions. The interactions between ETrA and COX-2 protein were simulated to produce a computer modeling protein-ligand complexes and the results suggest a possible mechanism for the effects of ETrA. In this study, we described a significant inhibition of the inflammatory activities initiated by ETrA. Since ETrA is a substance presented in the tissues of young animals, we therefore anticipate that ETrA can be utilized as a natural therapeutic supplement to inhibit inflammatory activities.
