Study of the causes of direct-acting mutagenicity in coffee and tea using the Ara test in Salmonella typhimurium 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The mutagenic activities of 6 of the chemicals identified in coffee solutions were assayed with the Salmonella Ara test, under experimental conditions optimized for coffee mutagenicity. Caffeine was the only non-mutagenic compound. Among the other 5 chemicals, hydrogen peroxide was the strongest mutagen and chlorogenic acid the weakest; methylglyoxal, glyoxal and caffeic acid exhibited intermediate mutagenicities. The minimal mutagenic doses of these components correlated negatively with their relative concentrations in coffee. It was concluded that chlorogenic acid, caffeic acid, glyoxal and methylglyoxal cannot contribute alone to the mutagenicity of coffee in the Ara test, since their minimal mutagenic concentrations were much higher than their respective levels in the coffee samples assayed. By contrast, 40-60% of the mutagenic activity in coffee and also in tea could be attributed to their H2O2 contents. Catalase abolished more than 95% of the mutagenic activity of coffee, as detected by the Ara test. A similar sensitivity to catalase has been reported by other authors in relation to the coffee mutagenicity identified by the Salmonella His test. Nevertheless, the results presented in this paper suggest that the Ara forward and the His reverse mutation tests are sensitive to the mutagenicity of different constituents in coffee solutions. We propose that the His test, sensitive at high coffee doses, mainly recognizes the mutagenicity of methylglyoxal, whilst the Ara test, sensitive at low coffee doses, mainly detects the mutagenic activity of hydrogen peroxide. The data reported also suggest that the direct-acting mutagenicity(ies) detected by the Ara test in tea solutions is (are) based on similar, if not identical, mechanisms. 相似文献

Leucine aminopeptidase in sheep serum was studied by starch gel electrophoresis. Two phenotypes, A and B, were observed, of which the former was present in 70–90 % of all the sheep examined. These two phenotypes have been shown to be controlled by a single autosomal locus, with two alleles LayA and LapB . The LapA allele is dominant. The frequencies of Lap phenotypes and alleles were determined in eleven Spanish and two foreign breeds. Serum alkaline phospatase and serum leucine aminopeptidase are electrophoretically distinct. 相似文献

The tetra-membrane-spanning protein, CD9 is a 24–27 kDa cell surface glycoprotein expressed in a wide variety of human cells
being involved in a variety of cell processes, including signaling, adhesion, motility, fertilization and tumor cells metastasis.
By means of a polyclonal antibody (N1) raised against recombinant swine CD9 protein, we studied the immunohistochemical expression
of CD9 on different normal swine tissues. Immunochemistry shows that swine CD9 was distribute in a similar form than in human
tissues, being present on epithelial cells of lung, liver, kidney, skin, tonsil, testis (epididymo), gut mucosa, uterus and
mama. Furthermore, polyclonal antibody against swine CD9 reacts with white matter from cerebrum and cerebellum, peripheral
nerves fibers and Hassal corpuscle from thymus and ovum. Platelets react strongly with our antibody, but monocytes and neutrophils
react lightly. These results suggest that CD9 antigen should play a similar functional role in swine and human and therefore
studies on CD9 on swine as an animal model would allow new knowledge about its role in adhesion, fertilization and tumor metastasis
among other important biomedical processes. 相似文献

The detoxification of 1-pentene-3-ol (pentenol) and 1-pentene-3-one (pentenone) by Drosophila melanogaster adult flies has been studied in two homozygous lines for the AdhF and AdhS alleles (LRC lines), in their respective lines selected for tolerance to ethanol (LRSe lines) and in a homozygous strain for the Adhn4 null allele. For each line, the genotype and sex LDs50 of both compounds were estimated. Then, in order to explain the differences in LD50, both alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and aldo keto reductase (AKR) activities were assayed. In addition, the effects of pentenone on AKR activity were also studied. Our results show that ADH-positive flies exhibit a much higher sensitivity to pentenol than ADH-null flies. However, both ADH-positive and ADH-null flies show a similar tolerance to pentenone. Our results show that flies selected for improving tolerance to ethanol also have increased tolerance to pentenol (FF and SS flies) and pentenone (SS flies). However, this improved ability to tolerate pentenol and/or pentenone cannot be explained by changes in ADH or AKR activities. On the other hand, we have observed a beneficial effect of pentenol, but not of pentenone, in n4 flies. We also show that AKR activity is not modified by the administration of pentenone. These results suggest that, in the absence of ADH activity, pentenol may be transformed into a compound that is less toxic than pentenone and that pentenone itself might also be transformed into a less toxic compound. 相似文献

CD9 is a member of the transmembrane-4 superfamily of surface molecules that seems to have a relevant role in cell migration and adhesion, as well as malignant progression. This work describes the isolation of the cDNA coding for the porcine CD9 molecule. Pig CD9 cDNA was isolated from a smooth muscle cDNA library and contains a 678-bp open reading frame with its predicted polypeptide sequence of 226 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence conserves the main characteristics of TM4 proteins, including the presence of four transmembrane domains. Like their homologous molecules from other species, pig CD9 has two extracellular regions of a different size with the minor loop bearing two possible glycosylation sites. The pig CD9 gene was localized to chromosome 5q25 by using a somatic cell hybrid panel. Analysis of CD9 expression in different porcine cells and tissues demonstrated that CD9 mRNA is ubiquitously expressed. 相似文献
