干酪乳杆菌LC2W菌体的抗高血压作用

为探索干酪乳杆菌LC2W抗高血压作用的活性成分,收集了采用MRS液体培养基培养的干酪乳杆菌LC2W菌体,洗涤后重悬到10%(w/w)无菌脱脂乳中,至终浓度为1010CFU/mL。将菌悬液分成两组,一组直接进行冷冻干燥(活菌组);另一组在100℃水浴10 min后再进行冷冻干燥(灭活组)。按2.0×109CFU/Kg的剂量(活菌组)或相当浓度的灭活菌体对鼠龄17~18周的自发性高血压大鼠单次或连续灌胃15日,每日一次,对照组给予同样体积的脱脂乳。采用尾环法测定大鼠的收缩压和心率。连续灌胃试验中,于灌胃后4 h测定大鼠的收缩压(Systolic blood Pressure,SBP)和心律(Heart rate,HR)。采用称重法测定大鼠第1 d和第15 d时的体重。结果表明,灌喂LC2W菌体可以显著降低SHR的收缩压,这种作用在灌胃后4 h最显著(P<0.01);在连续灌胃试验中,无论是活菌组还是灭活组在第1、4、8、11和15 d都有显著的抗高血压作用(P<0.01)。未观察到LC2W菌体对实验动物心律和体重有明显的影响。上述结果表明在干酪乳杆菌菌体中存在热稳定性、具有抗高血压作用的物质。

Growth temperature and OprF porin affect cell surface physicochemical properties and adhesive capacities of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pseudomonas fluorescens</Emphasis> MF37

Pseudomonads adapt to various ecological niches by forming biofilms, which first requires bacterial adhesion on surfaces. We studied the influence of growth temperature on surface physicochemical properties of Pseudomonas fluorescens MF37 and on its adhesive capacities onto inert surfaces. It presented a global hydrophilic character, measured by microbial adhesion to solvent (MATS), and showed a cell surface more hydrophilic at 8 and 28°C than at 17°C. Moreover, P. fluorescens MF37 was more adhesive at 17°C. This critical temperature thus should be carefully taken into account in food safety. Adhesion onto inert surfaces is thus influenced by the growth temperature, which modifies the bacteria cell wall properties through changes in the outer membrane components. Therefore, we studied the effect of the loss of OprF, the major outer membrane protein, known to act as an adhesin (root, and endothelial cells). The OprF-deficient mutant was able to adhere to surfaces, but showed the same physicochemical and adhesion properties on abiotic surfaces whatever the growth temperature. OprF is thus not essential in this adhesion process. However, we suggest that OprF is involved in the bacterial environmental temperature sensing by P. fluorescens.This work was supported by a grant from the Région Bretagne (Doctoral fellowship to G.H.).     

The MAP1B-LC1/UBE2L3 complex catalyzes degradation of cell surface CaV2.2 channels

We reported recently a new mechanism by which the neuronal N-type Ca²⁺ (Ca_V2.2) channel expression may be regulated by ubiquitination. This mechanism involves the interaction between the channel and the light chain (LC1) of the microtubule associated protein B (MAP1B). We also showed that MAP1B-LC1 could interact with the ubiquitin-conjugating E2 enzyme UBE2L3 and that the ubiquitination/degradation mechanism triggered by MAP1B-LC1 could be prevented by inhibiting the ubiquitin-proteasome proteolytic pathway. We now report that MAP1B-LC1 can interact with the 2 main variants of the Ca_V2.2 channels (Ca_V2.2e37a and Ca_V2.2e37b) and that the MAP1B-LC1-mediated regulation most likely involves an internalization of the channels via a dynamin and clathrin-dependent pathway. In addition, here we propose that this novel mechanism of Ca_V channel regulation might be conserved among N-type and P/Q-type channels.

林生山黧豆幼苗2,4—二氨基丁酸的合成及其与胁迫条件的关系

林生山黧豆幼苗用［3H］－天门冬氨酸标记后,高丝氨酸在6h内迅速增加。高丝氨酸合成速率降低后,2,4－二氨基丁酸的合成量上升,于18h达到高峰。赖氨酸和苏氨酸与二氨基丁酸的合成表现有协同反馈机制。结果支持了天门冬半醛转氨生成二氨基丁酸的假说。盐胁迫、渗透胁迫和热激增加了二氨基丁酸的合成,可能是因为不同胁迫条件都造成了细胞脱水,从而促进了二氨基丁酸的合成。

Adhesion,phagocytosis and cell surface energy. The binding of fixed human erythrocytes to rat macrophages and polymethylpentene

Fixed human erythrocytes were used as model particles for the study of adhesion and phagocytosis by rat peritoneal macrophages. Erythrocytes were fixed with various concentrations of glutaraldehyde or tannic acid, or were treated with neuraminidase. Adhesion and phagocytosis of these cells were measured. In addition, the surface energy of these erythrocytes and macrophages was estimated by the contact angle technique. Free energies of adhesion, based on the cell surface energies, were correlated with both adhesion and phagocytosis.
