We describe a cyclic on‐column procedure for the sequential degradation of complex O‐glycans on proteins or peptides by periodate oxidation of sugars and cleavage of oxidation products by elimination. Desialylated glycoproteins were immobilized to alkali‐stable, reversed‐phase Poros 20 beads followed by two degradation cycles and the eluted apoproteins were either separated by SDS gel electrophoresis or digested with trypsin prior to LC/ESI‐MS. We demonstrate on the peptide and protein level that even complex glycan moieties are removed under mild conditions with only minimal effects on structural integrity of the peptide core by fragmentation, dehydration or by racemization of the Lys/Arg residues. The protocol is applicable on gel‐immobilized glycoproteins after SDS gel electrophoresis. Conversion of O‐glycoproteins into their corresponding apoproteins should result in facilitated accessibility of tryptic cleavage sites, increase the numbers of peptide fragments, and accordingly enhance protein coverage and identification rates within the subproteome of mucin‐type O‐glycoproteins. 相似文献

Irradiation with ultraviolet‐A (UVA) ray at doses of 20–100 J/cm2 diminished the cell viability of human keratinocytes HaCaT and human melanoma cells HMV‐II, both of which were protected by pre‐irradiational administration with the ascorbic acid (Asc) derivative, VC‐IP (2,3,5,6‐O‐tetra‐2′‐hexyldecanoyl‐L‐ascorbic acid; vitamin C‐isopalmityl tetraester), which is the first lipoidic‐liquiform pro‐vitamin C by itself that is materialized by esterization of all four intramolecular hydroxyl groups of an Asc molecule with branched chain fatty groups, resulting in molecular fluidity higher than that of the corresponding straight chains. Irradiation with UVA to HaCaT keratinocytes was shown to cause the formation of 8‐hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8‐OHdG), translocation of phosphatidylserine in the inner layer into the outer layer of cell membrane, and lowering of a mitochondrial membrane potential, all of which were repressed by pre‐irradiational administration with VC‐IP. Expression of p53 gene, another hallmark of UV‐induced DNA damages, was promoted by UVA irradiation to the keratinocytes but also repressed by VC‐IP. Administration with VC‐IP of 10–50 µM to human fibroblasts NHDF achieved the enhancement of collagen synthesis, repression of matrix metalloprotease‐2/9 activity, and increasing of intracellular Asc contents more markedly than that with Asc itself of the same concentrations. Thus UVA‐induced diverse harmful effects could be prevented by VC‐IP, which was suggested to ensue intrinsically from the persistent enrichment of intracellular Asc, through esterolytic conversion of VC‐IP to a free‐form Asc molecule, resulting in relief to UVA‐caused oxidative stress.

With the rising demand for flexible and wearable electronic devices, flexible power sources with high energy densities are required to provide a sustainable energy supply. Theoretically, rechargeable, flexible Li‐O2/air batteries can provide extremely high specific energy densities; however, the high costs, complex synthetic methods, and inferior mechanical properties of the available flexible cathodes severely limit their practical applications. Herein, inspired by the structure of human blood capillary tissue, this study demonstrates for the first time the in situ growth of interpenetrative hierarchical N‐doped carbon nanotubes on the surface of stainless‐steel mesh (N‐CNTs@SS) for the fabrication of a self‐supporting, flexible electrode with excellent physicochemical properties via a facile and scalable one‐step strategy. Benefitting from the synergistic effects of the high electronic conductivity and stable 3D interconnected conductive network structure, the Li‐O2 batteries obtained with the N‐CNTs@SS cathode exhibit superior electrochemical performance, including a high specific capacity (9299 mA h g?1 at 500 mA g?1), an excellent rate capability, and an exceptional cycle stability (up to 232 cycles). Furthermore, as‐fabricated flexible Li‐air batteries containing the as‐prepared flexible super‐hydrophobic cathode show excellent mechanical properties, stable electrochemical performance, and superior H2O resistibility, which enhance their potential to power flexible and wearable electronic devices. 相似文献

High mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein is a crucial nuclear cytokine that elicits severe vascular inflammatory diseases. Oenanthe javanica (water dropwort) extract has anti‐arrhythmic, neuroprotective and anti‐diabetic activity. However, isorhamnetin‐3‐O‐galactoside (I3G), an active compound from O. javanica, is not researched well for its biological activity. Here, we investigated the anti‐inflammatory activities of I3G by monitoring the effects of I3G on the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or cecal ligation and puncture (CLP)‐mediated release of HMGB1 and HMGB1 or CLP‐mediated modulation of inflammatory responses. I3G potently inhibited the release of HMGB1 and down‐regulated HMGB1‐dependent inflammatory responses in human endothelial cells. I3G also inhibited HMGB1‐mediated hyperpermeability and leukocyte migration in mice. Further studies revealed that I3G suppressed the production of tumor necrosis factor‐α and activation of nuclear factor‐κB by HMGB1. In addition, I3G reduced CLP‐induced HMGB1 release and sepsis‐related mortality. Given these results, I3G should be viewed as a candidate therapeutic agent for the treatment of severe vascular inflammatory diseases such as sepsis or septic shock via inhibition of the HMGB1 signaling pathway.

An innovative and environmentally friendly battery chemistry is proposed for high power applications. A carbon‐coated ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle‐based anode and a LiFePO4‐multiwalled carbon nanotube‐based cathode, both aqueous processed with Na‐carboxymethyl cellulose, are combined, for the first time, in a Li‐ion full cell with exceptional electrochemical performance. Such novel battery shows remarkable rate capabilities, delivering 50% of its nominal capacity at currents corresponding to ≈20C (with respect to the limiting cathode). Furthermore, the pre‐lithiation of the negative electrode offers the possibility of tuning the cell potential and, therefore, achieving remarkable gravimetric energy and power density values of 202 Wh kg?1 and 3.72 W kg?1, respectively, in addition to grant a lithium reservoir. The high reversibility of the system enables sustaining more than 10 000 cycles at elevated C‐rates (≈10C with respect to the LiFePO4 cathode), while retaining up to 85% of its initial capacity. 相似文献

The synthetic route to pepstatin derivatives by a solid phase peptide synthesis using either O‐protected or O‐unprotected statine as a building block has been investigated. Statine was prepared according to a modified literature procedure, whereas protection of its 3‐hydroxyl moiety using tert‐butyldimethylsilylchloride (TBSCl) provided the novel O‐TBS‐protected statine building block. The O‐tert‐butyldimethylsilyl (TBS)‐protected statine approach provides an improved synthetic strategy for the preparation of statine‐containing peptides as demonstrated by the synthesis of the pepstatin analogue iva‐Val‐Leu‐Sta‐Ala‐Sta.

Studies on the interactions between L ‐O‐ phosphoserine, as one of the simplest fragments of membrane components, and the Cinchona alkaloid cinchonine, in the crystalline state were performed. Cinchoninium L ‐O‐phosposerine salt dihydrate (PhSerCin) crystallizes in a monoclinic crystal system, space group P21, with unit cell parameters: a = 8.45400(10) Å, b = 7.17100(10) Å, c = 20.7760(4) Å, α = 90°, β = 98.7830(10)°, γ = 90°, Z = 2. The asymmetric unit consists of the cinchoninium cation linked by hydrogen bonds to a phosphoserine anion and two water molecules. Intermolecular hydrogen bonds connecting phosphoserine anions via water molecules form chains extended along the b axis. Two such chains symmetrically related by twofold screw axis create a “channel.” On both sides of this channel cinchonine cations are attached by hydrogen bonds in which the atoms N1, O12, and water molecules participate. This arrangement mimics the system of bilayer biological membrane. Chirality 2010. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Human coagulation factor X is a central component of the blood coagulation cascade that converts, under its activated form, prothrombin into thrombin. Generation of thrombin is the final step of the clotting cascade that leads to the clot by polymerization of fibrinogen molecules into a fibrin network. Today, research of new by‐passing agents of the coagulation may contribute to an increased interest for human factor X, which may, in consequence, lead to the need of a more exhaustive picture of its structural features. Several post‐translational modifications of human factor X such as γ‐carboxylation/β‐hydroxylation of the N‐terminal light chain and N‐/O‐glycosylation of the activation peptide have been described. But, so far as we know, no comprehensive studies of its post‐translational modifications have been reported. In this article we report an exhaustive structural analysis of human factor X by mass spectrometry using successive protein and peptide mapping. Surprisingly, human factor X was found to be mostly O‐glucosylated on its light chain at Ser106 position, Ser9 of its activation peptide is phosphorylated at about 30% and its C‐terminal heavy chain is fully O‐glycosylated at Thr249 by a mucin‐type O‐glycan (HexNAc‐Hex‐NeuAc). The knowledge of these post‐translational modifications is mandatory for the development of recombinant molecules. 相似文献

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by increased left ventricular mass and wall thickness, decreased systolic function, reduced ejection fraction (EF) and ultimately heart failure. The 4‐O‐methylhonokiol (MH) has been isolated mainly from the bark of the root and stem of Magnolia species. In this study, we aimed to elucidate whether MH can effectively prevent DCM in type 2 diabetic (T2D) mice and, if so, whether the protective response of MH is associated with its activation of AMPK‐mediated inhibition of lipid accumulation and inflammation. A total number of 40 mice were divided into four groups: Ctrl, Ctrl + MH, T2D, T2D + MH. Five mice from each group were sacrificed after 3‐month MH treatment. The remaining animals in each group were kept for additional 3 months without further MH treatment. In T2D mice, the typical DCM symptoms were induced as expected, reflected by decreased ejection fraction and lipotoxic effects inducing lipid accumulation, oxidative stress, inflammatory reactions, and final fibrosis. However, these typical DCM changes were significantly prevented by the MH treatment immediately or 3 months after the 3‐month MH treatment, suggesting MH‐induced cardiac protection from T2D had a memory effect. Mechanistically, MH cardiac protection from DCM may be associated with its lipid metabolism improvement by the activation of AMPK/CPT1‐mediated fatty acid oxidation. In addition, the MH treatment of DCM mice significantly improved their insulin resistance levels by activation of GSK‐3β. These results indicate that the treatment of T2D with MH effectively prevents DCM probably via AMPK‐dependent improvement of the lipid metabolism. 相似文献

Li‐ion batteries as energy storage devices need to be periodically charged for sustainably powering electronic devices owing to their limited capacities. Here, the feasibility of utilizing Li‐ion batteries as both the energy storage and scavenging units is demonstrated. Flexible Li‐ion batteries fabricated from electrospun LiMn2O4 nanowires as cathode and carbon nanowires as anode enable a capacity retention of 90% coulombic efficiency after 50 cycles. Through the coupling between triboelectrification and electrostatic induction, the adjacent electrodes of two Li‐ion batteries can deliver an output peak voltage of about 200 V and an output peak current of about 25 µA under ambient wind‐induced vibrations of a hexafluoropropene–tetrafluoroethylene copolymer film between the two Li‐ion batteries. The self‐charging Li‐ion batteries have been demonstrated to charge themselves up to 3.5 V in about 3 min under wind‐induced mechanical excitations. The advantages of the self‐charging Li‐ion batteries can provide important applications for sustainably powering electronics and self‐powered sensor systems. 相似文献

Iron oxides, such as Fe2O3 and Fe3O4, have recently received increased attention as very promising anode materials for rechargeable lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) because of their high theoretical capacity, non‐toxicity, low cost, and improved safety. Nanostructure engineering has been demonstrated as an effective approach to improve the electrochemical performance of electrode materials. Here, recent research progress in the rational design and synthesis of diverse iron oxide‐based nanomaterials and their lithium storage performance for LIBs, including 1D nanowires/rods, 2D nanosheets/flakes, 3D porous/hierarchical architectures, various hollow structures, and hybrid nanostructures of iron oxides and carbon (including amorphous carbon, carbon nanotubes, and graphene). By focusing on synthesis strategies for various iron‐oxide‐based nanostructures and the impacts of nanostructuring on their electrochemical performance, novel approaches to the construction of iron‐oxide‐based nanostructures are highlighted and the importance of proper structural and compositional engineering that leads to improved physical/chemical properties of iron oxides for efficient electrochemical energy storage is stressed. Iron‐oxide‐based nanomaterials stand a good chance as negative electrodes for next generation LIBs. 相似文献

1‐O‐Hexyl‐2,3,5‐trimethylhydroquinone (HTHQ), a lipophilic phenolic agent, has an antioxidant activity and reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging property. However, the role of HTHQ on cerebral ischaemic/reperfusion (I/R) injury and the underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. In the present study, we demonstrated that HTHQ treatment ameliorated cerebral I/R injury in vivo, as demonstrated by the decreased infarct volume ration, neurological deficits, oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis. HTHQ treatment increased the levels of nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its downstream antioxidant protein, haeme oxygenase‐1 (HO‐1). In addition, HTHQ treatment decreases oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis of PC12 cells following hypoxia and reperfusion (H/R) in vitro. Moreover, we provided evidence that PC12 cells were more vulnerable to H/R‐induced oxidative stress after si‐Nrf2 transfection, and the HTHQ‐mediated protection was lost in PC12 cells transfected with siNrf2. In conclusion, these results suggested that HTHQ possesses neuroprotective effects against oxidative stress and apoptosis after cerebral I/R injury via activation of the Nrf2/HO‐1 pathway. 相似文献

Compared with N‐linked glycosylation, the analysis of O‐GalNAc glycosylation is extremely challenging due to the high structure diversity of glycans and lack of glycosidases to release O‐GalNAc glycans. In this work, a glycoform simplification strategy by combining HILIC enrichment with chemical de‐sialylation to characterize O‐GalNAc glycosylation of human serum is presented. This method is first validated by using the bovine fetuin as the test sample. It is found that more than 90% of the sialic acid residues can be removed from bovine fetuin by the acid‐assisted de‐sialylation method, which significantly simplifies the glycan structure and improves identification sensitivity. Indeed, the number of identified peptide backbones increases nearly one fold when this strategy is used. This method is further applied to analyze the human serum sample, where 185 O‐GalNAc modified peptide sequences corresponding to 94 proteins with high confidence (FDR (false detection rate) <1%) are identified. This straight forward strategy can significantly reduce the variations of glycan structures, and is applicable to analysis of other biological samples with high complexity. 相似文献
