The melt processing of glycerol-plasticized starch in the presence of non-volatile carboxylic acids resulted in a progressive loss of its molar mass, because the residual moisture in the mixture induced an acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of the ether linkages in its polysaccharide chains. The study of this reaction provided a useful means of adjusting its course and thus of preparing starch materials with controlled properties. 相似文献

The study evaluated the microsporogenesis of olive trees subjected to different agricultural pesticide applications during flowering. Inflorescences of cultivars Arbequina and MGS GRAP541 were subjected to agricultural pesticides: mineral oil, neem oil, dimethoate and deltamethrin. The floral buds were fixed in Carnoy for the microsporogenesis analysis and in Karnovsky for scanning electron microscopy. The slides were prepared by squash technique and staining with propionic carmine. The pollen viability was determined by Alexander’s stain and in vitro germination. Results show that the quantification of abnormalities in meiosis in the two cultivars caused significant effect among the treatments, being that all differed statistically from the control group. Both methods showed a higher percentage of viable pollens in the control treatment and lower percentage of viability with the agricultural pesticides. The method of pollen viability by staining presented the highest averages of viable pollens, but when compared together, both methods presented a strongly related positive linear correlation. It was concluded that the used chemical products increased the percentage of chromosomal abnormalities during microsporogenesis, which interfered in the pollen viability of the two analyzed cultivars. The product deltamethrin caused the strongest effect on meiosis and on pollen viability. 相似文献

Background
TNF-α and IFN-γ play a role in the development of mucosal damage in celiac disease (CD). Polymorphisms of TNFA and IFNG genes, as well as of the TNFRSF1A gene, encoding the TNF-α receptor 1, might underlie different inter-individual disease susceptibility over a common HLA risk background. The aims of this study were to ascertain whether five SNPs in the TNFA promoter (-1031T>C,-857C>T,-376G>A,-308G>A,-238G>A), sequence variants of the TNFRSF1A gene and IFNG +874A>T polymorphism are associated with CD in a HLA independent manner.Methods
511 children (244 CD, 267 controls) were genotyped for HLA, TNFA and INFG (Real Time PCR). TNFRSF1A variants were studied (DHPLC and sequence).Results
Only the rare TNFA-1031C (OR=0.65, 95% CI:0.44-0.95), -857T (OR=0.42, 95% CI:0.27-0.65), -376A (OR=2.25, 95% CI:1.12-4.51) and -308A (OR=4.76, 95% CI:3.12-7.26) alleles were significantly associated with CD. One TNFRSF1A variant was identified (c.625+10A>G, rs1800693), but not associated with CD. The CD-correlated TNFA SNPs resulted in six haplotypes. Two haplotypes were control-associated (CCGG and TTGG) and three were CD-associated (CCAG, TCGA and CCGA). The seventeen inferred haplotype combinations were grouped (A to E) based on their frequencies among CD. Binary logistic regression analysis documented a strong association between CD and HLA (OR for intermediate risk haplotypes=178; 95% CI:24-1317; OR for high risk haplotypes=2752; 95% CI:287-26387), but also an HLA-independent correlation between CD and TNFA haplotype combination groups. The CD risk for patients carrying an intermediate risk HLA haplotype could be sub-stratified by TNFA haplotype combinations.Conclusion
TNFA promoter haplotypes associate with CD independently from HLA. We suggest that their evaluation might enhance the accuracy in estimating the CD genetic risk. 相似文献5.

After isolating NT‐S100A8 from pancreatic cancer (PC) tissue of diabetic patients, we verified whether this peptide alters PC cell growth and invasion and/or insulin release and [Ca2+]i oscillations of insulin secreting cells and/or insulin signaling. BxPC3, Capan1, MiaPaCa2, Panc1 (PC cell lines) cell growth, and invasion were assessed in the absence or presence of 50, 200, and 500 nM NT‐S100A8. In NT‐S100A8 stimulated β‐TC6 (insulinoma cell line) culture medium, insulin and [Ca2+] were measured at 2, 3, 5, 10, 15, 30, and 60 min, and [Ca2+]i oscillations were monitored (epifluorescence) for 3 min. Five hundred nanomolars NT‐S100A8 stimulated BxPC3 cell growth only and dose dependently reduced MiaPaCa2 and Panc1 invasion. Five hundred nanomolars NT‐S100A8 induced a rapid insulin release and enhanced β‐TC6 [Ca2+]i oscillations after both one (F = 6.05, P < 0.01) and 2 min (F = 7.42, P < 0.01). In the presence of NT‐S100A8, [Ca2+] in β‐TC6 culture medium significantly decreased with respect to control cells (F = 6.3, P < 0.01). NT‐S100A8 did not counteract insulin induced phosphorylation of the insulin receptor, Akt and IκB‐α, but it independently activated Akt and NF‐κB signaling in PC cells. In conclusion, NT‐S100A8 exerts a mild effect on PC cell growth, while it reduces PC cell invasion, possibly by Akt and NF‐κB signaling, NT‐S100A8 enhances [Ca2+]i oscillations and insulin release, probably by inducing Ca2+ influx from the extracellular space, but it does not interfere with insulin signaling.

A weathered medium crude oil was applied to experimental plots of Scirpus pungens (Three-square Bulrush) in a freshwater wetland to determine the efficacy of strategies for shoreline oil spill bioremediation based on nutrient enrichment (bioremediation) and plant growth (phytoremediation). Plots were unoiled, oiled with no added nutrients, or oiled with repeated applications of phosphate and nitrate fertilizers. Following initial treatments, the experimental plots were raked to simulate the activity of wave action on oil penetration, and plants in one fertilized plot were cut repeatedly. The sediments were sampled at regular intervals for 15 months after oiling, and the loss of oil was assessed by 4-day laboratory tests of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) bioaccumulation by trout, as demonstrated by increases in activity of liver cytochrome P450 (CYP1A) enzymes. Oil alone, oil mixed with sediments in the lab, and oiled sediments from treated plots all induced CYP1A activity relative to untreated controls, indicating the presence and bioavailability of PAH. Induction did not vary with nutrient treatments, but declined by 80% within 15 months of oiling, and chemical analyses indicated equivalent losses of hydrocarbons in sediment. These results demonstrate that bioavailable PAHs persisted in measurable quantities for at least 1.25 years following oiling, and that stimulation of plant growth did not affect the rate of oil disappearance. The controlling factors were likely weathering and sediment movement. 相似文献

BackgroundPopulation-based cancer registry studies of care patterns can help elucidate reasons for the marked geographic variation in cancer survival across Italy. The article provides a snapshot of the care delivered to cancer patients in Italy.MethodsRandom samples of adult patients with skin melanoma, breast, colon and non-small cell lung cancers diagnosed in 2003–2005 were selected from 14 Italian cancer registries. Logistic models estimated odds of receiving standard care (conservative surgery plus radiotherapy for early breast cancer; surgery plus chemotherapy for Dukes C colon cancer; surgery for lung cancer; sentinel node biopsy for >1 mm melanoma, vs. other treatment) in each registry compared to the entire sample (reference).ResultsStage at diagnosis for breast, colon and melanoma was earlier in north/central than southern registries. Odds of receiving standard care were lower than reference in Sassari (0.68, 95%CI 0.51–0.90) and Napoli (0.48, 95%CI 0.35–0.67) for breast cancer; did not differ across registries for Dukes C colon cancer; were higher in Romagna (3.77, 95%CI 1.67–8.50) and lower in Biella (0.38, 95%CI 0.18–0.82) for lung cancer; and were higher in Reggio Emilia (2.37, 95%CI 1.12–5.02) and lower in Ragusa (0.27, 95%CI 0.14–0.54) for melanoma.ConclusionsNotwithstanding limitations due to variations in the availability of clinical information and differences in stage distribution between north/central and southern registries, our study shows that important disparities in cancer care persist across Italy. Thus the public health priority of reducing cancer survival disparities will not be achieved in the immediate future. 相似文献
