Background
Several cell lines and primary cultures benefit from the use of positively charged extracellular matrix proteins or polymers that enhance their ability to attach to culture plates. Polyethyleneimine is a positively charged polymer that has gained recent attention as a transfection reagent. A less known use of this cationic polymer as an attachment factor was explored with several cell lines. 相似文献2.

The aim of the present study was to analyse, retrospectively on a large panel of patients (149), the influence of the donor
liver characteristics on the outcome of human hepatocyte isolation obtained from resected liver biopsies from surgical waste
after hepatectomy. Among the pre-operative parameters, the type of disease, age and sex of the patient, previous chemotherapy,
alcohol or tobacco consumption did not affect the yield, viability, attachment rate and function of the isolated human hepatocytes.
Pre-operative biological and anatomopathological data indicated that, while mild steatosis (≤10% steatotic hepatocytes) did
also not affect the outcome of hepatocyte isolation, stronger steatosis (>10% steatotic hepatocytes) tended to decrease hepatocyte
yield. Cholestasis, as assessed by γ-glutamyl transferase serum values, significantly negatively correlated with the percentage
of digested liver and the yield of viable cells. Intra-operative clamping time, that is, warm ischaemia, longer than 30 min
was found to decrease both the percentage of digested liver and cell yield. Among the post-operative parameters, the percentage
of digested liver decreased when biopsy weights were higher than 100 g, the use of glue tended to increase both the percentage
of digested tissue and the yield of viable cells.
In conclusion, human diseased livers appear to be a valuable source of isolated functional human hepatocytes. We recommend,
for an optimal isolation, to use liver biopsies weighing less than 100 g, to glue the section surfaces of the biopsies and
to avoid the use of moderate steatotic livers (>10% steatotic hepatocytes) and cholestatic livers, as well as livers undergoing
warm ischaemia or clamping during resection due to the decrease in cell yield.

A mathematical model is presented for the steps in the elongation process, and the steady-state elongation rate as a function
of the amino acid concentrations is found. In addition, the reset sub-process of the elongation process is modeled. The rate
of elongation of peptide chains is found to be a function of the concentration of the amino acid to be bound and the concentration
of all other amino acids. In addition, the overall elongation rate depends on the concentrations of elongation factors. 相似文献

The aims of the present study were to investigate the relationship of aerobic and anaerobic parameters with 400 m performance, and establish which variable better explains long distance performance in swimming. Twenty-two swimmers (19.1±1.5 years, height 173.9±10.0 cm, body mass 71.2±10.2 kg; 76.6±5.3% of 400 m world record) underwent a lactate minimum test to determine lactate minimum speed (LMS) (i.e., aerobic capacity index). Moreover, the swimmers performed a 400 m maximal effort to determine mean speed (S400m), peak oxygen uptake () and total anaerobic contribution (CANA). The CANA was assumed as the sum of alactic and lactic contributions. Physiological parameters of 400 m were determined using the backward extrapolation technique ( and alactic contributions of CANA) and blood lactate concentration analysis (lactic anaerobic contributions of CANA). The Pearson correlation test and backward multiple regression analysis were used to verify the possible correlations between the physiological indices (predictor factors) and S400m (independent variable) (p < 0.05). Values are presented as mean ± standard deviation. Significant correlations were observed between S400m (1.4±0.1 m·s-1) and LMS (1.3±0.1 m·s-1; r = 0.80), (4.5±3.9 L·min-1; r = 0.72) and CANA (4.7±1.5 L·O2; r= 0.44). The best model constructed using multiple regression analysis demonstrated that LMS and explained 85% of the 400 m performance variance. When backward multiple regression analysis was performed, CANA lost significance. Thus, the results demonstrated that both aerobic parameters (capacity and power) can be used to predict 400 m swimming performance. 相似文献

Background
Genetic markers and maps are instrumental in quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping in segregating populations. The resolution of QTL localization depends on the number of informative recombinations in the population and how well they are tagged by markers. Larger populations and denser marker maps are better for detecting and locating QTLs. Marker maps that are initially too sparse can be saturated or derived de novo from high-throughput omics data, (e.g. gene expression, protein or metabolite abundance). If these molecular phenotypes are affected by genetic variation due to a major QTL they will show a clear multimodal distribution. Using this information, phenotypes can be converted into genetic markers.Results
The Pheno2Geno tool uses mixture modeling to select phenotypes and transform them into genetic markers suitable for construction and/or saturation of a genetic map. Pheno2Geno excludes candidate genetic markers that show evidence for multiple possibly epistatically interacting QTL and/or interaction with the environment, in order to provide a set of robust markers for follow-up QTL mapping.We demonstrate the use of Pheno2Geno on gene expression data of 370,000 probes in 148 A. thaliana recombinant inbred lines. Pheno2Geno is able to saturate the existing genetic map, decreasing the average distance between markers from 7.1 cM to 0.89 cM, close to the theoretical limit of 0.68 cM (with 148 individuals we expect a recombination every 100/148=0.68 cM); this pinpointed almost all of the informative recombinations in the population.Conclusion
The Pheno2Geno package makes use of genome-wide molecular profiling and provides a tool for high-throughput de novo map construction and saturation of existing genetic maps. Processing of the showcase dataset takes less than 30 minutes on an average desktop PC. Pheno2Geno improves QTL mapping results at no additional laboratory cost and with minimum computational effort. Its results are formatted for direct use in R/qtl, the leading R package for QTL studies. Pheno2Geno is freely available on CRAN under “GNU GPL v3”.

Increasing interest in biological surfactants has led to intensified research directed at more cost-efficient production of biosurfactants, relative to traditional surface-active components based on petrochemical feedstocks. This publication will focus on a new integrated process for continuous rhamnolipid (RL) production. RL was synthesized by Pseudomonas aeruginosa DSM 2874 and was continuously removed in situ by foam fractionation. To prevent loss of the biocatalyst through foaming, bacteria were entrapped in magnetic alginate beads. Immobilizates were retained from the foam by high-gradient magnetic separation and back-flushed in the bioreactor at constant intervals. It was demonstrated that continuous RL production in a 10-L bioreactor over several cycles with intermediate growth periods is feasible. Complete separation of RLs from the production medium with an average enrichment ratio of 15 in the collapsed foam was demonstrated, yielding a final RL amount of 70 g after four production cycles. 相似文献

Sonic hedgehog (Shh) is a crucial regulator of organ development during embryogenesis. We investigated whether intramyocardial gene transfer of naked DNA encoding human Shh (phShh) could promote a favorable effect on recovery from acute and chronic myocardial ischemia in adult animals, not only by promoting neovascularization, but by broader effects, consistent with the role of this morphogen in embryogenesis. After Shh gene transfer, the hedgehog pathway was upregulated in mammalian fibroblasts and cardiomyocytes. This resulted in preservation of left ventricular function in both acute and chronic myocardial ischemia by enhanced neovascularization, and reduced fibrosis and cardiac apoptosis. Shh gene transfer also enhanced the contribution of bone marrow-derived endothelial progenitor cells to myocardial neovascularization. These data suggest that Shh gene therapy may have considerable therapeutic potential in individuals with acute and chronic myocardial ischemia by triggering expression of multiple trophic factors and engendering tissue repair in the adult heart. 相似文献

Kinetic and mechanistic considerations in the gelation of genipin-crosslinked gelatin 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The gelling properties (gel time (tgel) and gel strength) of a 10% (w/w) gelatin sol were investigated as a function of genipin (GP) concentration (0–15 mM) and temperature (25–55 °C) to discern mechanisms and optimal conditions for fixation. Gel time increased with increasing temperature, reached a maximum, and then declined as temperature was raised further. By contrast, network strength data followed the opposite trend. From the thermal behavior of tgel and network strength, it was inferred that gelation in the low-temperature regime was dominated by hydrogen bonding, while in the high-temperature regime it was dominated by covalent crosslinking. At higher temperatures, crosslinking was described by an Arrhenius rate law expression, with activation energies between 63.2 and 67.8 kJ/mol, depending on GP concentration. In the low temperature regime, an Arrhenius plot resulted in negative activation energies of −75.8 and −64.4 kJ/mol in the presence of 10 and 15 mM GP, respectively. With an increase in both GP concentration and temperature, the gelatin network gradually shifted from being dominated by hydrogen bonds (physical crosslinks) to covalent crosslinking (chemical crosslinks). 相似文献
