An exopolygalacturonase was partially purified from mycelial extracts of a strain of Acrocylindrium. The enzyme was most active at pH 4.5 and showed a higher affinity for polygalac turo nic acid than for oligogalacturonic acids. The enzyme was found to hydrolyze glycosidic linkages at the non-reducing end of polygalacturonic acid molecules, giving only monogalacturonic acid as the reaction product. 相似文献

The dietary effects of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) on Ig production of Sprague-Dawley rats were examined at various doses such as 0 (control), 0.05, 0.10, 0.25, and 0.50%. CLA increased IgG and IgM production of spleen lymphocytes in a dose-dependent manner, and these levels reached a plateau at 0.25%. IgA production was not detected in the control group, while it was detected in all CLA-fed groups and IgA productivity of spleen lymphocytes increased in a dose-dependent manner at the doses from 0.05 to 0.50%. Dietary CLA did not affect serum Ig levels. The major fatty acid composition of spleen lymphocytes was not affected by dietary CLA, which itself was hardly incorporated into the cells. In an in vitro assay, the effects of CLA and its oxidative derivatives, furan type fatty acids, on Ig productivity were also examined. As a result, 100 μM CLA suppressed Ig production of spleen lymphocytes and the degree was as follows IgA>IgG>IgM. Each CLA isomer and the furan type fatty acids also suppressed Ig production but the degree was weaker than the mixture of CLA isomers. In this result, dietary CLA increased Ig productivity of spleen lymphocytes in vivo. 相似文献

Conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs) were reported to have anti-atherogenic properties in animal feeding experiments. In an attempt to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of these anti-atherogenic effects, the modulatory potential of CLA on cytokine-induced eicosanoid production from smooth muscle cells (SMCs), which contributes to the chronic inflammatory response associated with atherosclerosis, has been investigated in the present study. cis-9, trans-11 CLA and trans-10, cis-12 CLA were shown to reduce proportions of the eicosanoid precursor arachidonic acid in SMC total lipids and to inhibit cytokine-induced NF-κB DNA-binding activity, mRNA levels of inducible enzymes involved in eicosanoid formation (cPLA2, COX-2, mPGES), and the production of the prostaglandins PGE2 and PGI2 by TNFα-stimulated SMCs in a dose-dependent manner. The effect of 50 μmol/L of either CLA isomer was as effective as 10 μmol/L of the PPARγ agonist troglitazone in terms of inhibiting the TNFα-stimulated eicosanoid production by SMCs. PPARγ DNA-binding activity was increased by both CLA isomers compared to control cells. Moreover, it was shown that the PPARγ antagonist T0070907 partially abrogated the inhibitory action of CLA isomers on cytokine-induced eicosanoid production and NF-κB DNA-binding activity by vascular SMCs suggesting that PPARγ signalling is at least partially involved in the action of CLA in human vascular SMCs. With respect to the effects of CLA on experimental atherosclerosis, our findings suggest that the anti-inflammatory effect of CLA is at least partially responsible for the anti-atherogenic effects of CLA observed in vivo. 相似文献

Secondary structures of proteins were studied by recurrence quantification analysis (RQA). High-resolution, 3-dimensional coordinates of alpha-carbon atoms comprising a set of 68 proteins were downloaded from the Protein Data Bank. By fine-tuning four recurrence parameters (radius, line, residue, separation), it was possible to establish excellent agreement between percent contribution of alpha-helix and beta-sheet structures determined independently by RQA and that of the DSSP algorithm (Define Secondary Structure of Proteins). These results indicate that there is an equivalency between these two techniques, which are based upon totally different pattern recognition strategies. RQA enhances qualitative contact maps by quantifying the arrangements of recurrent points of alpha carbons close in 3-dimensional space. For example, the radius was systematically increased, moving the analysis beyond local alpha-carbon neighborhoods in order to capture super-secondary and tertiary structures. However, differences between proteins could only be detected within distances up to about 6-11 A, but not higher. This result underscores the complexity of alpha-carbon spacing when super-secondary structures appear at larger distances. Finally, RQA-defined secondary structures were found to be robust against random displacement of alpha carbons upwards of 1 A. This finding has potential import for the dynamic functions of proteins in motion. 相似文献

Previous studies have demonstrated that the intake of a 1% conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) diet in an 80:20 mixture of cis-9,trans-11 and trans-10,cis-12 exerts age-specific effects on the immune system: immunoglobulin enhancement and proliferative down-modulation in neonatal and adult rats, respectively. The present study evaluates the influence of the same diet on antibody synthesis of early infant Wistar rats during suckling and/or after weaning. Dietary supplementation was performed during suckling and early infancy (4 weeks), only during suckling (3 weeks), or only in early infancy (1 week). CLA content in plasma and serum immunoglobulin (Ig) G, IgM and IgA concentration were determined. Proliferation, cytokines and Ig production were evaluated on isolated splenocytes. Cis-9,trans-11- and trans-10,cis-12-CLA isomers were detected in the plasma of all CLA-supplemented animals, and the highest content was quantified in those rats supplemented over the longest period. These rats also exhibited higher concentrations of serum IgG, IgM and IgA. Moreover, splenocytes from CLA-supplemented rats showed the highest IgM and IgG synthesis and interleukin (IL)-6 production, whereas their proliferative ability was lower. In summary, in infant rats, we observed both the enhance antibody synthesis previously reported in neonates, and the reduced lymphoproliferation previously reported in adults. 相似文献

Aims: To investigate the ability of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) to convert linoleic acid (LA) and α‐linolenic acid (α‐LNA) to conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) and conjugated linolenic acid (CLNA), respectively. To assess pH and temperature influences on CLA and CLNA production by Lactobacillus sakei LMG 13558. Methods and Results: A screening of 48 LAB yielded one Lactobacillus curvatus, five Lactobacillus plantarum and four Lact. sakei strains displaying linoleate isomerase (LAI) activity. CLNA conversion percentages varied largely (1–60%). CLA conversion, occurring in three strains, was lower (2–5%). The LAI gene sequences of the ten LAI‐positive strains shared 75–99% identity with the LAI gene sequence of a Lact. plantarum AS1.555. At pH 6·2, CLA and CLNA production by Lact. sakei LMG 13558 was higher at 30°C than at 20 and 25°C. At pH 5·5 (30°C) or 37°C (pH 6·2), LA was not converted and α‐LNA only slightly converted. Conclusions: LAB show strain‐dependent LAI activity. Production of CLA and CLNA is affected by pH and temperature, as shown for Lact. sakei LMG 13558. Significance and Impact of the Study: Several LAB produce CLA and/or CLNA, as shown for Lact. sakei and Lact. curvatus for the first time. These findings offer potential for the manufacturing of fermented functional foods. 相似文献

Background
α-Eleostearic acid and punicic acid, two typical conjugated linolenic acid (CLnA) isomers present in bitter gourd and snake gourd oil respectively, exhibit contrasting cis-trans configuration which made them biologically important.Methods
Rats were divided into six groups. Group 1 was control and group 2 was treated control. Rats in the groups 3 and 4 were treated with mixture of α-eleostearic acid and punicic acid (1:1) (0.5% and 1.0% respectively) while rats in the groups 5 and 6 were treated with 0.5% of α-eleostearic acid and 0.5% of punicic acid respectively along with sodium arsenite by oral gavage once per day.Results
Results showed that increase in nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity, inflammatory markers expression, platelet aggregation, lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, DNA damage and altered expression of liver X receptor-α (LXR-α) after arsenite treatment were restored with the supplementation of oils containing CLnA isomers. Altered activities of different antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutase, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione reductase and ferric reducing ability of plasma (FRAP) also restored after oil supplementation. Altered morphology and fluidity of erythrocyte membrane studied by atomic force and scanning electron microscopy, after stress induction were significantly improved due to amelioration in cholesterol/phospholipid ratio and fatty acid profile of membrane. Oils treatment also improved morphology of liver and fatty acid composition of hepatic lipid.Conclusions
Overall two isomers showed synergistic antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect against induced perturbations and membrane disintegrity.General significance
Synergistic antioxidant and anti-inflammatory role of these CLnA isomers were established by this study. 相似文献9.

To determine possible mechanisms of action that might explain the nutrient partitioning effect of betaine and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) in Iberian pigs and to address potential adverse effects, twenty gilts were restrictively fed from 20 to 50 kg BW Control, 0.5% betaine, 1% CLA or 0.5% betaine + 1% CLA diets. Serum hormones and metabolites profile were determined at 30 kg BW and an oral glucose test was performed before slaughter. Pigs were slaughtered at 50 kg BW and livers were obtained for chemical and histological analysis. Decreased serum urea in pigs fed betaine and betaine + CLA diets (11%; P = 0.0001) indicated a more efficient N utilization. The increase in serum triacylglycerol (58% and 28%, respectively; P = 0.0098) indicated that CLA and betaine + CLA could have reduced adipose tissue triacylglycerol synthesis from preformed fatty acids. Serum glucose, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and non-esterified fatty acids were unaffected. CLA and betaine + CLA altered serum lipids profile, although liver of pigs fed CLA diet presented no histopathological changes and triglyceride content was not different from Control pigs. Compared with controls, serum growth hormone decreased (20% to 23%; P = 0.0209) for all treatments. Although serum insulin increased in CLA, and especially in betaine + CLA pigs (28% and 83%; P = 0.0001), indices of insulin resistance were unaffected. In conclusion, CLA, and especially betaine + CLA, induced changes in biochemical parameters and hormones that may partially explain a nutrient partitioning effect in young pigs. Nevertheless, they exhibited weak, although detrimental, effects on blood lipids. Moreover, although livers were chemically and histologically normal, pigs fed CLA diet challenged with a glucose load had higher serum glucose than controls. 相似文献
