Catalpol attenuates nitric oxide increase via ERK signaling pathways induced by rotenone in mesencephalic neurons

Catalpol has been shown to rescue neurons from kinds of damage in vitro and in vivo in previous reports. However, the effect of catalpol on the nitric oxide (NO) system via MAPKs signaling pathway of mesencephalic neurons largely remains to be verified. The current study examined that whether catalpol modulated NO and iNOS increase by rotenone in primary mesencephalic neurons and investigated its underlying signaling pathways. Present results indicated that catalpol inhibited primary mesencephalic neurons from apoptosis by morphological assay, immunocytochemistry and flow cytometric evaluation. Moreover, the ERK signaling pathway plays an important role in NO-mediated degeneration of neuron. The current results suggest that catalpol is a potential agent for the prevention of neurons apoptosis by regulating NO and iNOS increase in ERK-mediated neurodegenerative disorders.

质子自杀法选育克雷伯氏菌产乳酸突变株

以产酸克雷伯氏菌(Klebsiella oxytoca) M5al为出发菌株, 经亚硝基胍诱变处理, 运用质子自杀法选育, 从含0.17 mol/L NaBr-NaBrO3的初筛平板上选出44个具有稳定遗传性的单菌落, 然后结合培养基优化后的摇瓶发酵复筛, 获得3个产乳酸突变株, 其乳酸脱氢酶活性分别为出发菌株的50.6%、58.8%、61.3%。对其中乳酸脱氢酶活性最低的菌株在5 L自动发酵罐上进行批式发酵, 结果显示: 突变株乳酸产量大幅降低, 而乙酸、1,3-丙二醇的产量则显著增加。     

Limited genetic diversity of an endemic subspecies Schizopygopsis chengi baoxingensis as inferred from the mitochondrial DNA control region

As a subspecies of Schizopygopsis chengi (Fang), Schizopygopsis chengi baoxingensis (Fu, Ding et Ye) occurs as a single population endemic to the Baoxing River in China. The influences from the construction of hydropower dams in its distribution area might result in its extinction in the future due to its very narrow habitat and small population size. In this study, we sequenced the mitochondrial DNA control region of 81 individuals to analyze the genetic variability of the subspecies, hoping to acquire basic genetic information. The results revealed a limited genetic diversity of the population. Total samples could only be defined as seven haplotypes based on nucleotide variations. The nucleotide diversity (0.0008), haplotype diversity (0.534), and overall mean genetic distance among individuals (0.00080 ± 0.00053) were very low. Therefore, it is very necessary and urgent to conserve the population of this subspecies, avoiding further genetic loss, or even extinction. Handling editor: Christian Sturmbauer     

CYP9A17v2组成型过量表达参与棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯的抗性

微粒体细胞色素P450氧化酶介导的解毒代谢增强是棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigera对拟除虫菊酯类杀虫剂产生抗性的主要原因。作者前期的研究表明, CYP9A12和CYP9A14组成型过量表达与棉铃虫YGF品系对拟除虫菊酯的高水平抗性相关, CYP9A12和CYP9A14的功能表达研究结果为其参与对拟除虫菊酯抗性提供了直接证据。本研究通过对棉铃虫CYP9A17v2的克隆、mRNA表达水平和功能表达的研究, 以期明确该基因是否参与棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯的抗性。结果表明: CYP9A17v2与CYP9A12的氨基酸序列具有很高的相似性（94%）。与棉铃虫对照品系（YG）相比, CYP9A17v2在YGF抗性品系末龄幼虫脂肪体中具有10.9倍的组成型过量表达, 而在中肠中未发现过量表达。用酿酒酵母Saccharomyces cerevisiae异源表达的CYP9A17v2能够代谢多种拟除虫菊酯（顺式氰戊菊酯、溴氰菊酯和氟氯氰菊酯）。据此认为CYP9A17v2组成型过量表达参与了棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯的抗性。至此, CYP9A亚家族中已有3个P450基因（CYP9A12, CYP9A14 和 CYP9A17v2）被证实参与了棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯的氧化解毒代谢。     

Effects of triptolide from Tripterygium wilfordii on ERα and p53 expression in two human breast cancer cell lines

The aim of the study was to discover possible differential cytotoxicity of triptolide towards estrogen-sensitive MCF-7 versus estrogen-insensitive MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells. Considering that MCF-7 cells express functional Estrogen receptor α (ERα) and wild-type p53, whereas MDA-MB-231 cells which are ERα-negative express mutant p53, the anti-proliferation effect of triptolide on MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells were examined, the apoptotic effect and cell cycle arrest caused by triptolide were investigated, ERα and p53 expression were also observed in this paper. The results showed that the anti-proliferation effects were induced by triptolide in both cell lines. But the value of IC₅₀ in MCF-7 cells for its anti-proliferation effect was about one tenth of that in MDA-MB-231 cells, which indicated that the effect is more potent in MCF-7 cells. Condensed chromatin or fragmented nuclei could be found in MCF-7 cells treated with only 40 nM triptolide but in MDA-MB-231 cells they couldn’t be observed until the concentration reached to 400 nM. Triptolide induced significant S cell cycle arrest along with the presence of sub-G0/G1 peak in MDA-MB-231 cells, whereas there was only slightly S cell cycle arrest on cell cycle distribution in MCF-7 cells. The role of p53 in two breast cancer cells was examined, the results showed that the mutant p53 in MDA-MB-231 cells was suppressed and the wild-type p53 in MCF-7 was increased. Moreover, triptolide could down regulate the expression of ERα in MCF-7 cells. The results showed that triptolide is much more sensitive to ERα-positive MCF-7 cells than to ERα-negative MDA-MB-231 cells, and the sensitivity is significantly associated with the ERα and p53 status.
