Converting renewable feedstocks to aromatic compounds using engineered microbes offers a robust approach for sustainable, environment‐friendly, and cost‐effective production of these value‐added products without the reliance on petroleum. In this study, rationally designed E. coli–E. coli co‐culture systems were established for converting glycerol to 3‐hydroxybenzoic acid (3HB). Specifically, the 3HB pathway was modularized and accommodated by two metabolically engineered E. coli strains. The co‐culture biosynthesis was optimized by using different cultivation temperatures, varying the inoculum ratio between the co‐culture strains, recruitment of a key pathway intermediate transporter, strengthening the critical pathway enzyme expression, and adjusting the timing for inducing pathway gene expression. Compared with the E. coli mono‐culture, the optimized co‐culture showed 5.3‐fold improvement for 3HB biosynthesis. This study demonstrated the applicability of modular co‐culture engineering for addressing the challenges of aromatic compound biosynthesis. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to develop a tool able to distinguish between subjects who have haemophilic arthropathy in lower limbs and those who do not by analyzing the centre of pressure displacement. The second objective was to assess the possible different responses of haemophiliacs and healthy subjects by creating a classifier that could distinguish between both groups. Fifty-four haemophilic patients (28 with and 26 without arthropathy) and 23 healthy subjects took part voluntarily in the study. A force plate was used to measure postural stability. A total of 276 centre of pressure displacement parameters were calculated under different conditions: unipedal/bipedal balance with eyes open/closed. These parameters were used to design a Quadratic Discriminant Analysis classifier. The arthropathy versus non-arthropathy classifier had an overall accuracy of 97.5% when only 10 features were used in its design. Similarly, the haemophiliac versus non-haemophiliac classifier had an overall accuracy of 97.2% when only 7 features were used. In conclusion, an objective haemophilic arthropathy in lower limbs evaluation system was developed by analyzing centre of pressure displacement signals. The haemophiliac vs. non-haemophiliac classifier designed was also able to corroborate the existing differences in postural control between haemophilic patients (with and without arthropathy) and healthy subjects. 相似文献

Hypoxic preconditioning is a promising method for improving the anti-apoptotic and paracrine signaling capabilities of adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs). The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence of different hypoxic conditions on ADSCs and the therapeutic effects of hypoxia-preconditioned ADSCs (HPADSCs) on an animal model of myocardial infarction (MI). For the in vitro studies, ADSCs were divided into five groups and cultured in different oxygen concentrations (1, 3, 5, 10, and 21 %). After 24 h, RT-PCR and western blots showed that 3 % oxygen preconditioning could improve the viability and cytokine secretion of the ADSCs. A Matrigel assay indicated that the HPADSC-conditioned medium could stimulate endothelial cells to form capillary-like tubes. For the in vivo studies, MI was induced by coronary occlusion in 24 mature Chinese minipigs. The animals were divided into three groups and treated by intramyocardial injection with vehicle alone (saline group), with 1?×?108 ADSCs cultured in normoxic conditions (ADSCs group) or with 1?×?108 ADSCs precultured in 3 % oxygen (HPADSCs group). SPECT and echocardiography demonstrated that cardiac function was improved significantly in the HPADSC transplant group compared with the vehicle control group (P?0.05). Immunofluorescence showed fewer apoptotic cells and more small- to medium-sized vessels in the HPADSC transplantation group (P?0.05). Three percent oxygen is the optimum preconditioning treatment for ADSCs. HPADSC transplantation can prevent ventricular remodeling and reduce the infarct size. 相似文献

The aberrant activation of Notch-1 signaling pathway has been proven to be associated with the development and progression of cancers. However, the specific roles and the underlying mechanisms of Notch-1 signaling pathway on the malignant behaviors of breast cancer are poorly understood. In this study, using multiple cellular and molecular approaches, we demonstrated that activation of Notch-1 signaling pathway promoted the malignant behaviors of MDA-MB-231 cells such as increased cell proliferation, colony formation, adhesion, migration, and invasion, and inhibited apoptosis; whereas deactivation of this signaling pathway led to the reversal of the aforementioned malignant cellular behaviors. Furthermore, we found that activation of Notch-1 signaling pathway triggered the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway and up-regulated the expression of NF-κB target genes including MMP-2/-9, VEGF, Survivin, Bcl-xL, and Cyclin D1. These results suggest that Notch-1 signaling pathway play important roles in promoting the malignant phenotype of breast cancer, which may be mediated partly through the activation of NF-κB signaling pathway. Our results further suggest that targeting Notch-1 signaling pathway may become a newer approach to halt the progression of breast cancer. 相似文献

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) mediate intercellular communication via transferring proteins and other biological molecules and have been recently investigated as biomarkers of disease. Sensitive and specific biomarkers are required for lung cancer diagnosis and prognosis. The present study screens for abnormal EV proteins in non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) using a quantitative proteomics strategy involving LC‐MS/MS to identify ideal biomarkers for NSCLC diagnosis. EVs are enriched from the sera of early and advanced NSCLC patients and healthy controls and from cell culture supernatants of lung adenocarcinoma and bronchial epithelial cell lines. In the sera and supernatants, 279 and 632 differentially expressed proteins, respectively, are associated with signaling pathways including extracellular membrane–receptor interaction, focal adhesion, and regulation of the actin cytoskeleton. Thirty‐two EV proteins are identified at the intersection of differentially expressed proteins between the NSCLC groups and cell lines. Based on bioinformatics analysis, in silico immunohistochemical, and PRM verification, fibronectin is selected for following in vitro studies and validation with an independent cohort. Fibronectin on EVs is estimated to perform well in the diagnosis of NSCLC patients based on AUC, showing great potential for clinical use and demonstrating the efficacy of this method for EV‐associated biomarker screening. 相似文献

药物的代谢是机体对药物处置过程的关键步骤,而肠道作为机体中重要的微生态系统,其在药物代谢方面的作用至关重要。肠道微生物群能够对各种药物等外源化合物进行生物转化、积累,并改变这些物质的活性和毒性,从而影响宿主机体对它们的反应。肠道微生物群与药物之间的相互作用相当复杂,亟待更多更加深入、全面的发掘和研究。近年来,随着人们对肠道微生物群代谢及其与药物互作关系,肠道菌-宿主共代谢认知的不断深化,越来越多的研究表明肠道微生物在药代动力学中扮演重要角色。本文通过调研、整理、归纳和总结国内外相关文献资料,对机体肠道微生物的分类、功能,几种常用药物对肠道微生物的影响以及肠道菌群对药物的代谢作用效果与几个主要的机制进行了梳理和综述,并讨论了微生物和药物之间的双向互作。有利于增进对微生物群影响药物疗效及其代谢途径和机制的了解,提高调控肠道微生物改善治疗的可能性,为指导临床合理用药、精准用药、个体化治疗、药物的评价和新药研发等提供科学参考。 相似文献
