两栖类动物皮肤活性物质的利用兼论中国两栖类资源开发的策略 总被引:13,自引:4,他引:13
中国拥有丰富的两栖类动物资源,它是中国生物资源的重要组成部分,也是人类的宝贵财富,具有很大的开发利用潜力。中国对两栖类生物资源的开发利用已取得一定的成果,但还有很多不足,尤其是关于两栖类皮肤活性生物分子的研究开发工作,基本上还是一片空白。着眼于疾病治疗因子的筛选和生物活性分子的发现,对中国部分两栖类动物进行了系统的筛选研究。发现了一系列的生物活性分子和可能具临床应用价值的生物因子,并结合中国及世界两栖类资源开发利用的现状,主要从药物开发和资源保护的角度对中国两栖类资源的开发利用提出几点建议。 相似文献

While conducting experiments to investigate antimicrobial peptides of amphibians living in the Yunnan-Sichuan region of southwest China, a new family of antimicrobial peptides was identified from skin secretions of the rufous-spotted torrent frog, Amolops loloensis. Members of the new peptide family named amolopins are composed of 18 amino acids with a unique sequence, for example, NILSSIVNGINRALSFFG. By BLAST search, amolopins did no show similarity to any known peptides. Among the tested microorganisms, native and synthetic peptides only showed antimicrobial activities against Staphylococcus aureus ATCC2592 and Bacillus pumilus, no effects on other microorganisms. The CD spectroscopy showed that it adopted a structure of random combined with beta-sheet in water, Tris-HCl or Tris-HCl-SDS. Several cDNAs encoding amolopins were cloned from the skin cDNA library of A. loloensis. The precursors of amolopin are composed of 62 amino acid residues including predicted signal peptides, acidic propieces, and mature antimicrobial peptides. The preproregion of amolopin precursor comprises a hydrophobic signal peptide of 22 residues followed by an 18 residue acidic propiece which terminates by a typical prohormone processing signal Lys-Arg. The preproregions of precursors are very similar to other amphibian antimicrobial peptide precursors but the mature amolopins are different from other antimicrobial peptide families. The remarkable similarity of preproregions of precursors that give rise to very different antimicrobial peptides in distantly related frog species suggests that the corresponding genes form a multigene family originating from a common ancestor. 相似文献

Antimicrobial peptides are widely distributed in nature and appear to play important roles in the host defense of plants and animals. In this study, we isolated and characterized three antimicrobial peptides from skin secretions of the oriental fire‐bellied toad, Bombina orientalis. These purified peptides were referred to as P1, P2, and P3 in order of their elution. P1, P2, and P3 have molecular weights of 2569, 2566, and 2370 Da by MALDI‐TOF mass spectrometer, respectively. They are heat‐stable, amphipathic peptides of 24–27 amino acids without cysteine residues. All three peptides are active against representative gram negative and gram positive bacterial species, and in particular, P1 appears to have distinctive antifungal activity. However, no significant hemolytic activity was found for these peptides 相似文献

The secretions of the mandibular and metapleural glands of leaf cutting ants contain antimicrobial substances that protect
the mutualistic fungal colony within the nest from attack by parasitic micro-organisms. The major constituents of these secretions
(citral, 4-methyl-3-heptanol, 2-heptanone, 3-octanone, 4-methyl-2-heptanone, β-citronellol, geraniol, phenylacetic, indolacetic,
hexanoic and octanoic acids were tested against resistant strains of the human pathogens, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus and Candida albicans. Assays were carried out using filter paper discs impregnated with either hexane or water solutions of the analytes in the
concentration range 250–6,000 ng/μl. Although most of the tested compounds presented strong antibacterial and antifungal activities,
citral, geraniol, 4-methyl-3-heptanol, hexanoic and octanoic acids were the most effective, particularly against C. albicans. The results suggest that these compounds may be of potential value as antibiotics in the treatment of human candidiasis. 相似文献

两栖类动物皮肤裸露和湿润的特性易于微生物的生长,它们为了抵御病原微生物的侵袭,在长期自然进化过程中形成了以抗菌肽(AMPs)为主要防御机制的免疫系统。抗菌肽广泛分布于动物、植物、微生物中,是生物用于抵御细菌、真菌、病毒和原虫等病原体侵袭的重要武器之一,在进化上是一类非常古老而有效的天然防御物质。Cathelicidins是脊椎动物特有的重要抗菌肽家族之一,除具有高效广谱的抗菌活性,还具有如抗炎、抗氧化、伤口修复、抑制组织损伤和促进血管生成等多种重要活性,因此Cathelicidins家族抗菌肽已成为抗感染多肽类新药的研发热点。本文将从两栖类动物Cathelicidins家族抗菌肽的一般特点、来源分布、生物合成与结构、生物学活性、作用机制及应用前景等几个方面,综合阐述国内外的研究动态。 相似文献

As a group of intestinal hormones and neurotransmitters, cholecystokinins(CCKs) regulate and affect pancreatic enzyme secretion, gastrointestinal motility, pain hypersensitivity, digestion and satiety, and generally contain a DYMGWMDFG sequence at the C-terminus. Many CCKs have been reported in mammals. However, only a few have been reported in amphibians, such as Hyla nigrovittata, Xenopus laevis, and Rana catesbeiana, with none reported in urodele amphibians like newts and salamanders. Here, a CCK called CCK-TV was identified and characterized from the skin of the salamander Tylototriton verrucosus. This CCK contained an amino acid sequence of DYMGWMDF-NH2 as seen in other CCKs. A c DNA encoding the CCK precursor containing 129 amino acid residues was cloned from the c DNA library of T. verrucosus skin. The CCK-TV had the potential to induce the contraction of smooth muscle strips isolated from porcine gallbladder, eliciting contraction at a concentration of 5.0x10-11 mol/L and inducing maximal contraction at a concentration of 2.0x10-6 mol/L. The EC50 was 13.6 nmol/L. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to identify the presence of a CCK in an urodele amphibian. 相似文献

More than ten bradykinin-related peptides and their cDNAs have been identified from amphibians, but their genes are unknown. In present study, four cDNAs encoding one, two, four and six copies of bradykinin-related peptides were cloned from the frog (Odorrana grahami) skin cDNA library, respectively. Three bradykinin-related peptides (bradykinin, Thr6-bradykinin, Leu5Thr6-bradykinin) were deduced from these four cDNA sequences. Based on the cDNA sequence, the gene sequence encoding an amphibian bradykinin-related peptide from O. grahami was determined. It is composed of 7481 base pairs including two exons and two introns. The first exon codes signal peptide and the second exon codes acidic spacer peptide and Thr6-bradykinin. The promoter region of the bradykinin gene contains several putative recognition sites for nuclear factors, such as SRY, GATA-1, LYF-1, DeltaE, CDXA, NKX-2.5, MIF1 and S8. The current work may facilitate to understand the regulation and possible functions of amphibian skin bradykinin-related peptides. 相似文献
