Dietary chromium(III) picolinate (CrPic) effects on circulating steroid hormones have been reported in various experimental
animals. However, direct effects of CrPic on adrenocortical steroidogenesis are uncertain. Therefore, the objective was to
determine the effects of CrPic on cortisol and dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAs) secretion from H295R cells. In experiment
1, a 24-h exposure to CrPic (0 to 200 μM) had both linear (p < 0.001) and quadratic (p < 0.001) effects on cortisol secretion from forskolin-stimulated cells with the highest cortisol secretion at 0.1 μM of CrPic
and the lowest at 200 μM of CrPic. In experiment 2, a 48-h exposure to CrPic (200 μM) decreased cortisol (p < 0.07) release from forskolin-stimulated cells during a 24-h collection period. In experiment 3, a 48-h exposure to CrPic
(100 μM) decreased cortisol (p < 0.05) and DHEAs (p < 0.01) from forskolin-stimulated cells during a 24-h sampling period. In experiment 4, a 24-h exposure to forskolin followed
by a 24-h exposure to both forskolin and CrPic (100 and 200 μM) decreased both cortisol and DHEAs secretion (p < 0.01). This study suggests that at high concentrations, CrPic inhibits aspects of steroidogenesis in agonist-stimulated
adrenocortical cells. 相似文献

Chromosome doubling was induced in vitro in a diploid hybrid of Rosa rugosa Thunb. using oryzalin as the spindle inhibitor. Nodal sections, 2 mm long, were exposed to 2.5 or 5 μM oryzalin and 10 mm
nodal sections were exposed to 5 μM oryzalin for 0 (controls), 6, 12, 24 and 48 h. The ploidy of the emergent shoots was determined
by flow cytometry. The frequency of tetraploid and mixoploid leaves that developed from 2 mm nodal sections exposed to 5 μM
oryzalin peaked at 12 h exposure, when 35% of the leaves were tetraploid, but fell after longer exposures. Fewer tetraploid
and mixoploid leaves were found when 2 mm nodes were exposed to 2.5 μM oryzalin for 6 and 12 h, indicating that it took longer
for a spindle inhibiting concentration of oryzalin to build up in the meristem. However, the frequencies of tetraploid and
mixoploid leaves continued to rise after 12 h and were highest at 48 h, when 44% were tetraploid. In treatments with 5 μM
oryzalin, the frequencies of tetraploid and mixoploid leaves were lower, at equivalent exposure times, in 10 mm nodes than
2 mm nodes. This suggests that oryzalin diffused to the meristem mainly via the cut surfaces and that access via the epidermis
and cuticle was impeded. 相似文献

Callus cultures ofCapsicum frutescens capable of producing a maximum of 53 μg capsaicin/g FW were exposed to various levels of p-fluorophenyialanine (PFP) at 100,
400, 1000 and 2000 μM to develop a resistant cell line that over produces capsaicin. After 15 days of culturing on media lacking
PFP, cell lines resistant to 100, 400 and 1000 μM registered 18%, 34.5% and 45% increase in capsaicin content over normal
cell line (cells not exposed to PFP). Capsaicin accumulation was inhibited in 2000 μM PFP resistant cell line. The profile
of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL), the key enzyme in pheny1propanoid pathway in resistant cell cultures was studied and
compared with normal cell cultures to understand its role in capsaicin formation. Importantly increased production of capsaicin
was obtained using PFP resistant cell lines. The activity profile of PAL had no correlation with capsaicin content in both
control and PFP resistant cells. 相似文献

Summary. A 48 h exposure of Scenedesmus sp. to sublethal concentrations of Cu (2.5 and 10 μM) and Zn (5 and 25 μM) caused a concentration-dependent inhibition of
growth, photosynthesis, respiration, NO3
− uptake, and nitrate reductase (EC 1.6.6.1) activity, and a reduction in protein, carbohydrate, and photosynthetic-pigment
levels with a concomitant increase in intracellular levels of the test metals. After exposure, algal cells were transferred
to the basal medium without the excess level of test metals, to study the recovery of various processes. The growth of the
test algae had not recovered up to 12 h after transfer to the basal medium, but some physiological parameters such as photosynthesis
and respiration recovered within 6 h. The quicker recovery of photosynthesis and respiration might be used as acclimatory
responses as they prepare a background for the recovery of other parameters, including growth, of the test alga by generating
energy, forming photosynthate, and establishing the usual catabolism to attain normal conditions. Most of the processes recovered
completely or almost completely after being stressed with 2.5 μM Cu or 5 μM Zn. However, the maintenance of a relatively high
level of Cu and Zn in the cells previously exposed to 10 μM Cu and 25 μM Zn slowed down the recovery of different processes,
which did not fully recover even at the end of the experiment after 96 h. The present study demonstrates that a chain of metabolic
events, beginning with respiration and photosynthesis and continuing with assimilation and uptake of nutrients and subsequent
restoration of other metabolic processes, is involved in the recovery of the algae from Cu and Zn stress. Each studied parameter
seems to play an important role in balancing the cellular homeostasis during recovery from metal stress.

The use of human epidermal keratinocytes in culture as a model for studying the biochemical mechanisms of sulfur mustard toxicity 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Human epidermal keratinocytes in culture were studied to evaluate their usefulness in demonstrating toxic events following
exposure to sulfur mustard. Exposure of keratinocytes to sulfur mustard over a concentration range of 1–1000 μM HD, reduced
NAD+ levels from 96% to 32% of control levels. When keratinocytes were exposed to a concentration of 300 μM HD, NAD+ levels
began to fall at 1 hour and reached a plateau of 47% of control levels at 4 hours. Niacinamide, an inhibitor of the enzyme
poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase, partially protected mustard-exposed cells against NAD+ depletion. It also protected cellular
viability as assessed by vital staining 24 hours after exposure. This protection was not seen in long-term (72 hr) cultures.
These studies suggest that human epidermal keratinocytes in culture can serve as a usefulin vitro model for research into the biochemical mechanisms of sulfur mustard-induced cutaneous injury. 相似文献

In this study we have tested the effects of d-propranolol (D-Pro) on the iron uptake, iron release and oxidative response of iron-loaded cells in a cellular model of iron-overload using isolated rat peritoneal macrophages incubated with iron-dextran (Fe-D). Pretreatment of macrophages with D-Pro (5–200 μ M) prior to Fe-D exposure decreased the cellular iron content and partially prevented iron release from latex-activated macrophages. Release of reactive oxygen species from activated cells was detected by dichlorodihydrofluorescein (DCDHF, 5 μ M) oxidation. We found that loading cells with Fe-D increased their response to latex, which was prevented by the lysosomotropic antioxidant agent D-Pro (10 μ M). 相似文献

In vitro and in vivo studies have proven strontium to be an osteoinductive trace element. The effect of strontium ranelate
(SR) on H2O2-induced apoptosis of CRL-11372 cells and optimization of its anti-apoptotic dose were the aims of this study. After 1 h of
pretreatment with SR 1 μM, 50 μM, 100 μM, 500 μM, and 1,000 μM concentrations, CRL-11372 osteoblasts were exposed to 100 μM H2O2 for periods of 6–12 h. The same experiments were repeated without H2O2. The apoptotic index and viability of cells were assessed quantitatively with a fluorescent dye and qualitatively with agarose
gel electrophoresis. Concentrations of 1–100 μM of SR with a 6-h treatment and only 1 μM concentration with a 12-h treatment
inhibited the apoptotic effect of H2O2 on cultured osteoblasts significantly (P < 0.05). SR was shown to inhibit H2O2-induced apoptosis of CRL-11372 cells in a dose-dependent manner. 相似文献

In the present work, we showed that a chalcone-enriched fraction (CEF) isolated from the stem bark of a Brazilian medicinal
plant, Myracrodruon
urundeuva, presents neuroprotective actions on 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced neuronal cell death, in rat mesencephalic cells.
In the MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl tetrazolium] assay, which is an index of cell viability, CEF (1–100 μg/ml)
reversed in a concentration-dependent manner the 6-OHDA-induced cell death. While cells exposed to 6-OHDA (40 μM) showed an
increased concentration of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), the pretreatment with CEF (10–100 μg/ml) significantly
decreased the 6-OHDA-induced TBARS formation, indicative of a neuroprotection against lipoperoxidation. Furthermore, the drastic
increase of nitrite levels induced by 6-OHDA, indicative of nitric oxide formation and free radicals production, was prevented
by CEF. Double staining with acridine orange/ethidium bromide showed that cultures exposed to 6-OHDA (40 and 200 μM) presented
an increase of apoptotic and necrotic cell numbers in a concentration-dependent manner. CEF (100 μg/ml) protected cells from
apoptosis and necrosis and increased number of cells presenting a normal morphology. The immunohistochemical analysis for
tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) positive neurons indicated that 6-OHDA (40 and 200 μM) caused a concentration-dependent loss of
TH+ and TH− neurons. CEF protected both cells types from 6-OHDA-induced cell death. All together, our results demonstrated
neuroprotective effects of chalcones, which are able to reduce oxidative stress and apoptotic injury caused by 6-OHDA. Our
findings suggest that chalcones could provide benefits, along with other therapies, in neurodegenerative injuries, such as
Parkinson’s disease. 相似文献

An experimental set-up which enabled non-invasive, real-time reactive oxygen species (ROS) visualization on a whole plant
level was constructed. In the test organism, Lemna minor L. (common duckweed), apoplastic and symplastic oxidative stress was evaluated by exposure to menadione (50 μM), menadione (50 μM) + ascorbate (100 μM) or neither for control. Menadione (50 μM) caused a statistically significant increase in H2DCFDA fluorescence in the apoplast after 60 minutes of exposure. The addition of ascorbate (100 μM) in the test medium significantly decreased apoplastic oxidative stress. 50 μM menadione caused an increase in symplastic H2DCFDA fluorescence in 57% of fronds. The exposure of L. minor plants to both menadione and ascorbate decreased the rate of fluorescence intensity accumulation in the symplast to control
levels. The method has proven to be quick and straightforward and could be applied to a range of chemicals in various physiological
and toxicological plant studies. The advantages of the set-up and different possible artefacts are discussed. 相似文献

The possible role of zinc (Zn) to reverse the oxidative stress caused by mercury (Hg) was investigated in Pfaffia
glomerata plantlets. Thirty-day-old acclimatized plantlets of P. glomerata were exposed to four treatments: control, 50 μM Zn, 50 μM Hg and 50 μM Zn + 50 μM Hg for 9 days. In Zn + Hg treatment, shoot
and root Hg concentrations were 59 and 24% smaller than that plants exposed to 50 μM Hg added alone. An increase in the Zn
concentration in the shoot of plants exposed to Zn + Hg occurred, although in the roots Zn concentration was not altered,
when compared to the control. Fresh and dry weights, as well as the activity of δ-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase (δ-ALA-D)
in Hg-treated plants were significantly reduced. Percentage survival, fresh and dry weights and δ-ALA-D activity of plants
treated by 50 μM Zn + 50 μM Hg were greater than of that treated by Hg alone. Moreover, Zn treatment reduced the lipid peroxidation
caused by Hg, being this effect related to increased root superoxide dismutase activity, and shoot catalase and ascorbate
peroxidase activities. In conclusion, the presence of Zn in the substrate caused a significant reduction in the oxidative
stress induced by Hg. 相似文献

Metallothionein (MT) response to cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) bioaccumulation after single or combined direct exposure was compared
in two freshwater bivalves, Dreissena polymorpha (zebra mussel) and Corbicula fluminea (Asiatic clam). Bivalves were exposed to 0.133 μM Cd and/or 15.3 μM Zn, with metal and MT concentrations analysed in the
whole soft body after 1, 3, 10 and 24 days of exposure and compared with controls. Results showed significant increase in
MT concentrations in both species exposed to Cd and Cd+Zn with a higher accumulation of the protein compared to the control
in D. polymorpha for nevertheless similar Cd levels accumulated with time. Exposure to Zn alone led to a significant increase in MT concentrations
only in C. fluminea, whereas there was a lack of MT gene induction in the zebra mussels which was confirmed by MT mRNA quantification in gills
(RT-PCR). Mussel mortality after 10 days of exposure to Zn and Cd + Zn is discussed with regard to detoxification mechanisms,
which include metallothioneins. 相似文献

Sulfide is a natural, widely distributed, poisonous substance, and sulfide:quinone oxidoreductase (SQR) is responsible for
the initial oxidation of sulfide in mitochondria. In this study, we examined the response of SQR to sulfide exposure (25,
50, and 150 μM) at mRNA, protein, and enzyme activity levels in the body wall and hindgut of the echiuran worm Urechis unicinctus, a benthic organism living in marine sediments. The results revealed SQR mRNA expression during sulfide exposure in the body
wall and hindgut increased in a time- and concentration-dependent manner that increased significantly at 12 h and continuously
increased with time. At the protein level, SQR expression in the two tissues showed a time-dependent relationship that increased
significantly at 12 h in 50 μM sulfide and 6 h in 150 μM, and then continued to increase with time while no significant increase
appeared after 25 μM sulfide exposure. SQR enzyme activity in both tissues increased significantly in a time-dependent manner
after 50 μM sulfide exposure. We concluded that SQR expression could be induced by sulfide exposure and that the two tissues
studied have dissimilar sulfide metabolic patterns. A U. unicinctus sulfide-induced detoxification mechanism was also discussed. 相似文献

Sclerotia and mycelium ofPhymatotrichum omnivorum were exposed to anhydrous ammonia (NH3) and then observed with an electron microscope in order to determine the effects of the NH3 treatment on the fungal membranes. Sclerotia were exposed to four rates of NH3: 28, 56, 84, and 112μg NH3/ml of air for 24 hours. At 28μg/ml, the plasmalemma became wavy and the mitochondrial cristae began to swell and disperse. At 56μg NH3/ml the plasmalemma showed breakage and formation of vesicles, and all other membrane systems within the cell were broken
and distorted. All membranes were totally disrupted and no organelles were recognizable at 84μg NH3/ml.
Mycelium was exposed to 2, 4, 8, 20, and 40μg NH3/ml for one minute. Damage to cell membranes was not observed at NH3 conc. up to 4μg/ ml. At 8μg NH3/ml the plasmalemma was broken and the mitochondria were disrupted. At 20μg/ ml and above, all internal organization was destroyed. 相似文献

In this work the effect of abscisic acid (ABA) and 100 mM NaCl on common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris var. Coco) growth, nitrogenase activity, and nodule metabolism was studied. Experiments were carried out in a controlled environmental
chamber and plants, at the vegetative growth stage (16 days old), were treated with ABA (1 μM and 10 μM) and 48 h later were
exposed to saline treatment. Results revealed that plant dry weight, nodule dry weight, nitrogen fixation (acetylene reduction
activity and ureides content), and most enzymes of ammonium and ureides metabolism were affected by both ABA and NaCl. The
addition of 1 μM ABA to the nutrient solution before the exposure to salt stress reduced the negative effect of NaCl. Based
on our results, we suggest that ABA application improves the response of Phaseolus vulgaris symbiosis under saline stress conditions, including the nitrogen fixation process and enzymes of ammonium assimilation and
purine catabolism. 相似文献

Acrylamide (ACR) is a potent neurotoxic in human and animal models. In this study, the effect of crocin, main constituent
of Crocus sativus L. (Saffron) on ACR-induced cytotoxicity was evaluated using PC12 cells as a suitable in vitro model. The exposure of PC12
cells to ACR reduced cell viability, increased DNA fragmented cells and phosphatidylserine exposure, and elevated Bax/Bcl-2
ratio. Results showed that ACR increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cells and ROS played an important
role in ACR cytotoxicity. The pretreatment of cells with 10–50 μM crocin before ACR treatment significantly attenuated ACR
cytotoxicity in a dose-dependent manner. Crocin inhibited the downregulation of Bcl-2 and the upregulation of Bax and decreased
apoptosis in treated cells. Also, crocin inhibited ROS generation in cells exposed to ACR. In conclusion, our results indicated
that pretreatment with crocin protected cells from ACR-induced apoptosis partly by inhibition of intracellular ROS production. 相似文献

The main objective of this research was to study the response of Arabidopsis thaliana L. and Thlaspi caerulescens J. & C. Presl to different Zn supplies. The A. thaliana plants were exposed to Zn-deficiency (0 and 0.05 μM Zn) and compared to the plants grown on media containing standard Zn
(2 μM). T. caerulescens plants were also exposed to Zn-deficiency (0.05 μM Zn), but as this is a Zn hyperaccumulator species, also to high Zn (1,000 μM
Zn). Plants were compared to plants grown on standard Zn media (100 μM Zn). Both A. thaliana and T. caerulescens were found to be heavily affected by Zn deficiency, showing similar retarded growth and reduced reproduction phenotypes,
and even less reduction in biomass production in T. caerulescens than in A. thaliana. T. caerulescens plants were similarly affected when grown on high Zn concentrations, with comparable effects on reproductive tissues as seen
on low Zn supply. 相似文献

Seaweeds growing in the intertidal zone are exposed to fluctuating nitrate and ultraviolet radiation (UVR) levels. While it
has been shown that elevated UVR levels and the decrease of nitrate concentration can reduce photosynthetic levels in seaweeds,
less is known about the combined effect of nitrate levels and UVR on metabolism and photoprotection mechanisms of intertidal
species. Consequently, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of nitrate concentration and UVR treatments
on photosynthesis, respiration, nitrate reductase activity and phenolic compound levels of Ulva rigida (Chlorophyta). There was a two- to threefold increase in maximal gross photosynthesis (GPmax) and respiration rates, as nitrate increased from 0 to 50 μM NO3−. Similarly, nitrate reductase activity increased linearly from low values in algae incubated at 0 μM NO3 to high values in tissue incubated at 50 μM NO3−. Phenolic compounds in the tissue of U. rigida increased approximately 60% under 50 μM NO3− relative to those incubated at 0 μM NO3−. Algae exposed to UVR (8 h) showed a significant decrease in the effective quantum yield and respiration, however, no effect
was observed in the phenolic compounds levels. Full recovery of effective quantum yield was observed after U. rigida was transferred for 48 h to low PAR. Nitrate reductase also decreased after an 8-h UVR exposure, but no differences were
observed among the nitrate treatments. This study shows that high nitrate levels reduced the negative effect of UVR on the
effective quantum yield and increased the recovery of key metabolic enzymes. It is possible that the increase of phenolic
compounds in the thallus of U. rigida under high nitrate levels provide a photoprotective mechanism when exposed to high UV levels during low tides. 相似文献

NC-1059 is a synthetic channel-forming peptide that provides for ion transport across, and transiently reduces the barrier
integrity of, cultured epithelial monolayers derived from canine kidney (MDCK cells). Experiments were conducted to determine
whether epithelial cells derived from other sources were similarly affected. Epithelial cells derived from human intestine
(T-84), airway (Calu-3), porcine intestine (IPEC-J2) and reproductive duct (PVD9902) were grown on permeable supports. Basal
short circuit current (I
sc) was <3 μA cm−2 for T-84, IPEC-J2 and PVD9902 cell monolayers and <8 μA cm−2 for Calu-3 cells. Apical NC-1059 exposure caused, in all cell types, an increase in I
sc to >15 μA cm−2, indicative of net anion secretion or cation absorption, which was followed by an increase in transepithelial conductance
(in mS cm−2: T-84, 1.6 to 62; PVD9902, 0.2 to 51; IPEC-J2, 0.3 to 26; Calu-3, 2.3 to 13). These results are consistent with the peptide
affecting transcellular ion movement, with a likely effect also on the paracellular route. NC-1059 exposure increased dextran
permeation when compared to basal permeation, which documents an effect on the paracellular pathway. In order to evaluate
membrane ion channels, experiments were conducted to study the dose dependence and stability of the NC-1059-induced membrane
conductance in Xenopus
laevis oocytes. NC-1059 induced a dose-dependent increase in oocyte membrane conductance that remained stable for greater than 2 h.
The results demonstrate that NC-1059 increases transcellular conductance and paracellular permeation in a wide range of epithelia.
These effects might be exploited to promote drug delivery across barrier epithelia. 相似文献

Bisnaphthalimido compounds bis-intercalate to DNA via the major groove and are potentially potent cancer therapeutics. Previously,
we incorporated natural polyamines as linkers connecting the two naphthalimido ring moieties to create a series of soluble
bisnaphthalimidopropyl polyamines (BNIPPs). Here, extending earlier work on bisnaphthalimidopropylspermidine (BNIPSpd)-induced
apoptosis in colon adenocarcinoma Caco-2 cells, we compare the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of BNIPSpd relative to the spermine
and oxaspermine derivatives, bisnaphthalimidopropylspermine (BNIPSpm) and bisnaphthalimidopropyloxaspermine (BNIPOSpm). The
order of cytotoxicity after 24 h was BNIPSpd (IC50 = 0.47 μM) > BNIPSpm (IC50 = 10.04 μM) > BNIPOSpm (IC50 >50 μM). After a 72-h BNIPOSpm exposure, an IC50 = 10.25 μM was achieved. With 4-h exposure to BNIPSpd or BNIPSpm or 12-h exposure to BNIPOSpm, concentrations ≥1 μM induced
a significant dose-dependent increase in DNA damage as measured by alkaline single-cell gel electrophoresis. The longer incubation
times required for BNIPOSpm to induce DNA strand breaks reflect a slower rate of BNIPOSpm cellular distribution as monitored
via BNIPP fluorescence within the cells. Moreover, exposure to a non-genotoxic concentration of BNIPSpd, BNIPSpm (0.1 μM for
4 h) or BNIPOSpm (0.1 μM for 12 h) induced a significant decrease in repair of oxidative DNA damage induced by hydrogen peroxide.
In conclusion, BNIPP exposure in Caco-2 cells is associated with significant induction of DNA damage and inhibition of DNA
repair at non-genotoxic concentrations. The latter is a novel consequence of BNIPP–cell interactions which adds to the spectrum
of therapeutically relevant activities that may be exploited for the design and development of naphthalimide-based therapeutics. 相似文献

The initiation and development of somatic embryos and organogenic shoots and corm-like structures (CLSs) from petiole-derived
calli of Amorphophallus rivieri Durieu were observed histologically. The petioles were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 5.37 μM
α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 4.44 μM N6-benzylaminopurine (6-BA) for callus induction. The shoot and corm organogenesis occurred from the compact calli when they
were transferred to a medium containing 0.54 μM NAA and 4.44 μM 6-BA. A combination of 13.57 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic
acid (2,4-D) and 8.88 μM 6-BA or 24.18 μM NAA and 6.66 μM 6-BA was optimum for induction of somatic embryos, which failed
to produce plantlets because of their structural abnormalities. Shoot regeneration predominantly happened through organogenesis
although somatic embryogenesis infrequently occurred. The subepidermal cells of the compact callus converted to competent
cells and started divisions, which resulted in formation of the meristemoids. The meristemoid cells continued division to
develop into bud primordia. Subepidermal cells could also form the globular structures. Subsequently, these globoids developed
into CLSs from which plantlets regenerated during subculture. Meanwhile, the CLSs were capable to form cormels, which could
be a promising way for the propagation of A. rivieri. 相似文献
