关于溴氰菊酯神经毒作用的生物化学研究

 本文利用生物化学的手段,对大鼠进行了急性和亚急性毒性实验,研究溴氰菊酯对动物中枢神经系统离子调节作用的影响。急性实验结果表明:<1>溴氰菊酯能显著抑制脑微粒体上的Ca~(2+)+Mg~(2+)-ATP酶和Na~++K~+-ATP酶活性,但并不降低ecto-Ca~(2+)-ATP酶(细胞表面的Ca~(2+)-ATP酶)的活性;<2>溴氰菊酯对大鼠小脑组织中的环腺苷酸含量无明显影响,但却能显著升高与其作用相反的环鸟苷酸含量。体外实验证明,溴氰菊酯能够减少线粒体对Ca~(2+)的主动摄取。在对大鼠进行的亚急性实验中,发现溴氰菊酯中毒组与对照组大鼠的Ca~(2+)+Mg~(2+)-ATP酶、Na~++K~+-ATP酶和ecto-Ca~(2+)-ATP酶的活性均无显著性差异。根据以上结果推测,在急性中毒的条件下,溴氰萄酯能引起大鼠脑神经细胞内Ca~(2+)和Na~+的浓度增高,致使神经兴奋性发生改变。     

混合盐碱胁迫下裸燕麦的种子萌发和幼苗逆境生理特征

为了解裸燕麦新品种‘定莜6号’对混合盐碱胁迫的生理响应,根据种植区土壤盐分的组成,采用砂培法研究了不同浓度混合盐碱处理对种子萌发和幼苗逆境生理特征的影响。结果表明,随着处理浓度增大,裸燕麦种子萌发率、萌发指数、活力指数及幼苗含水量和生物量明显下降,叶片超氧阴离子、过氧化氢和丙二醛含量及质膜相对透性显著增大;Na~+含量增加,K~+含量和K~+/Na~+降低,质膜H~+-ATP酶、过氧化物酶、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶活性和可溶性蛋白质含量先升后降,超氧化物歧化酶活性及谷胱甘肽、有机酸和脯氨酸含量升高,过氧化氢酶活性和抗坏血酸含量降低,游离氨基酸含量先降后升,可溶性糖含量呈升—降—升趋势变化。表明盐碱胁迫下活性氧代谢失调和Na~+、K~+平衡破坏是裸燕麦生长受抑的重要原因,有机酸和脯氨酸可能是裸燕麦适应盐碱的主要渗透调节物质。     

燕麦根细胞质膜K+刺激ATP酶的纯化(英文)

Triton X-100加KI能够有效地溶解燕麦根细胞质膜上K~+刺激的ATP酶(张堃等1989)。对这种溶解的K~+刺激的ATP酶进行甘油梯度离心,得到了一些结果:1.在pH 7.5甘油梯度离心,溶解的ATP酶活性损失约85％,在pH 4.5时活性仅损失约50％,这表明低pH条件对于ATP酶活性稳定的重要性,2.使用水平转子进行甘油梯度离心效果较好;3.甘油梯度离心纯化的ATP酶经SDS-PAGE分析,85％以上的酶蛋白分子量为34kD的多肽。这一低分子量的具有K~+刺激的ATP酶活性的多肽与100kD左右的ATP酶(Serrano 1984)之间的关系有待进一步研究;4.经甘油梯度离心纯化后,K~+刺激的ATP酶活性占K~+,Mg~(2+)-ATP酶活性的52％;而溶解的ATP酶活性中,K~+刺激的部分仅为35％(表1)。此结果类似透析对溶解的ATP酶的影响(张堃等1989)。表明溶解的ATP酶制剂中K~+的存在掩盖了K~+对ATP酶的刺激作用。     

外源绿原酸缓解黑大豆SB铝毒害的机理研究

该文研究了外源绿原酸(CGA)对Al胁迫下铝敏感型黑大豆SB根生理生化指标以及根中胁迫相关基因表达的变化,探讨外源CGA缓解SB根铝毒害的效果及分子机理。以不同浓度Al和CGA处理SB,筛选出CGA缓解Al毒害的最佳浓度,测定Al含量、抗氧化系统酶活性、14-3-3蛋白与H~+-ATP酶的表达、H~+泵活性。结果表明:低浓度CGA能缓解Al胁迫下黑大豆SB根伸长抑制,并促进侧根数目增加,而高浓度CGA的缓解效果下降;0.01 g·L~(-1) CGA使Al胁迫下SB根尖Al含量与MDA含量下降,促进根系柠檬酸的分泌。RTPCR和Western Bloting分析表明0.01 g·L~(-1) CGA促进Al胁迫下SB根中14-3-3b、14-3-3m、14-3-3k和GHA2基因(质膜H~+-ATP酶)的表达,抑制MATE基因的表达。同时,0.01 g·L~(-1) CGA能促进Al胁迫下质膜H~+-ATP酶蛋白磷酸化水平以及其与14-3-3蛋白结合,且能提高质膜H~+-ATP酶和H~+泵活性。因此推测外源CGA可能通过增加侧根数,增强14-3-3蛋白和质膜H~+-ATP酶基因蛋白表达水平和互作,弥补Al胁迫下MATE表达的抑制,增加柠檬酸的分泌,增强SB对铝毒害的耐受性。     

纳米TiO2、ZnO、SiO2对剑尾鱼肝组织中Na+/K+-ATP酶活性的影响

采用浸浴法研究了氧化纳米颗粒TiO2、ZnO、SiO2对剑尾鱼(Xiphophorus helleri)肝中Na+/K+-ATP酶活性的影响。结果表明:纳米TiO2处理组,高浓度(5 mg/L、10 mg/L)组表现为抑制作用,其中5 mg/L处理组Na+/K+-ATP酶的活性与对照组无显著差异(p>0.05),10 mg/L处理组中Na+/K+-ATP酶的活性显著低于对照组中酶的活性(p<0.05)。低浓度组(0.1 mg/L、1 mg/L)则表现为先诱导后抑制,除0.1 mg/L组在暴露1 d后与对照组有显著差异外(p<0.05),其余组与对照组均无显著差异(p>0.05)。纳米ZnO、SiO2处理组(0.1 mg/L、10 mg/L)在暴露1 d后,肝中Na+/K+-ATP酶的活性均比对照组高,随着暴露时间增加至20 d,Na+/K+-ATP酶活性下降,且显著低于对照组(p<0.05)。3种纳米颗粒的浓度为0.1 mg/L时,对暴露后1 d剑尾鱼肝中的Na+/K+-ATP酶活性的影响均为诱导作用,诱导大小顺序为ZnO>TiO2>SiO2;随着暴露时间的增加至10 d,纳米TiO2、ZnO、SiO2处理组对Na+/K+-ATP酶活性均表现出抑制作用。     

不同倍性小麦对盐胁迫的适应性差异

为了揭示不同倍性小麦适应盐胁迫的差异,该研究以人工合成六倍体(AABBDD)小麦及其四倍体(AABB)小麦(Triticum turgidum)和二倍体(DD)节节麦(Aegilops tauschii)亲本为材料,研究了不同浓度NaCl(0、200 mmol·L~(-1))胁迫处理下小麦幼苗K~+、Na~+含量以及K~+/Na~+的变化规律,以及不同浓度(0、50、100、200 mmol·L~(-1))盐胁迫对超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和过氧化物酶(POD)活性、丙二醛(MDA)含量、脯氨酸含量、可溶性蛋白和可溶性糖含量的影响规律。结果表明:四倍体表现出显著的高Na~+低K~+以及较低的K~+/Na~+,二倍体表现出显著的低Na~+高K~+和较高的K~+/Na~+,NaCl胁迫时离子含量变化大,对盐胁迫的适应性更强,六倍体在积累K~+的能力上也有一定的优势。低浓度(50~100 mmol·L~(-1))盐胁迫使3种倍性材料的丙二醛含量和抗氧化酶活性升高。四倍体在累积渗透调节物质和调节抗氧化酶活性的能力上显著强于二倍体和六倍体,六倍体在POD活性以及积累脯氨酸和可溶性蛋白的能力上也具有一定的优势。根据研究结果推测,含有DD染色体组的二倍体节节麦主要通过调节K~+/Na~+来适应盐胁迫,而含有AABB染色体组的四倍体小麦主要通过调节抗氧化酶的活性累积渗透调节物质来适应盐胁迫,作为二倍体和四倍体远缘杂种的人工合成六倍体小麦则表现出了综合的耐盐适应性机制,相较于两亲本具有更加广泛耐盐适应性。     

山莨若碱通过膜脂影响兔肾(Na~++K~+)-ATP酶的构象及活性

研究了山莨菪碱对处于不同脂双层的兔肾外髓质(Na~++K~+)-ATP酶活性的影响,结果表明山莨菪碱对(Na~++K~+)-ATP酶的抑制作用与该酶所处的脂环境密切相关,如对去脂后的酶活性无明显影响,而对重组于酸性磷脂脂质体的酶比对重组于中性磷脂脂质体的酶有更大的抑制作用。园二色性实验表明,山莨菪碱使带349个界面脂分子的(Na~++K~+)-ATP酶二级结构发生明显变化,而对带189个界面脂分子的酶无明显作用。另外利用差示量热扫描研究表明山莨菪碱对酸性磷脂和中性磷脂脂质体或脂酶体相变行为有不同的影响。

Biological activity of some schiff bases and their metal complexes

Schiff bases derived from salicylaldehyde and 2-substituted aniline and their metal chelates with Cu(II), Ni(II), and Co(II) ions were synthesized and screened for the antiinflammatory and antiulcer activity. The compound salicylidene anthranilic acid (SAA) was found to possess the antiinflammatory and antiulcer activity. The copper complexes showed an increased antiulcer activity. The SAA is perhaps acting by influencing prostaglandin biosynthesis.     

Effect of Piper longum Linn, Zingiber officianalis Linn and Ferula species on gastric ulceration and secretion in rats

Use of Dipaniya Mahakasaya, a group consisting of 10 herbal drugs, has been suggested in Charaka Samhita to improve digestion. Out of these 10 plants, three, viz. P. longum (water decoction), Z. officianalis (water decoction) and Ferula species (colloidal solution) were studied for their antiulcer and mechanism of antiulcer effects in rats. All the drugs in the dose of 50 mg/kg, p.o., 60 min prior to experiment, showed significant protection against gastric ulcers induced by 2 hr cold restraint stress, aspirin (200 mg/kg, 4 hr) and 4 hr pylorus ligation. The antiulcerogenic effect seemed to be due to the augmentation of mucin secretion and decreased cell shedding rather than offensive acid and pepsin secretion which however, were found to be increased by them.     

Melanogenesis inhibitory bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoids from the roots of Angelica koreana

Bioactivity-guided isolation of the methanolic extract of the roots of Angelica koreana led to the isolation of four new bisabolane-type sesquiterpenoids, osterivolones A-D (1-4) together with four known compounds, bisabolangelone (5), decursinol angelate (6), psoralen (7), and falcarindiol (8). Their structures were elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data interpretation, especially 2D NMR spectra such as HMQC, HMBC, and NOESY. All compounds were evaluated for their inhibitory effects of the melanogenesis against α-melanocyte stimulating hormone (α-MSH)-activated B16 melanoma cells.     

Short peptide fragments with antiulcer activity from a collagen hydrolysate

A peptide acidic hydrolysate of collagen (PHC) was obtained under conditions (4 N HCl) ensuring the predominant formation of short peptides, glyprolines. They were separated and their antiulcer activity was studied. Thirty individual peptides with molecular masses of 174–420 amu were isolated from the PHC by HPLC. The PHC was shown to predominantly contain 2-to 4-aa peptides, including PG, GP, and PGP. Experiments on rats demonstrated that, on intragastric administration at a dose of 1 mg/kg, PHC enhances the stability of the gastric mucosa to the action of ulcerogenic factors, such as ethanol and stress, and exhibits a protecting antiulcer effect. Even a lesser dose (0.1 mg/kg), which reduced ulcer area twofold, was effective in the stress model of ulcer formation. The intraperitoneal and intragastric administration of PHC at a dose of 1 mg/kg was found to exhibit a therapeutic effect in the acetate model of ulcer formation.     

Effect of bisabolangelone on development ofCydia pomonella larvae and oviposition of the females

The effects of bisabolangelone on the development of codling moth larvae,Cydia pomonella L., and on ovipositional behaviour of the females were studied under laboratory conditions. Entry of the neonate larvae into apples and their development on a semi-synthetic medium were completely inhibited when the larvae were exposed respectively to 10 μg a.i./cm² and 20 μg a.i./ml of this compound. While concentrations of 1.25 to 5.0 μg a.i./ml bisabolangelone in the medium did not significantly affect larval development, exposure of the larvae to a higher rate (10 μg a.i./ml) resulted in 80% mortality during the first week. Nevertheless, the larvae which survived the treatments underwent further development until emergence of the adults. No significant changes in duration of larval or pupal periods were recorded. Oviposition of the females in plastic beakers, whose inner surfaces were partially painted with two concentrations of bisabolangelone (1.25 to 5.0 μg a.i./cm²), was significantly reduced and the eggs were mainly laid on the parts painted with the ethanol solvent alone. When the inner surface of the cups was completely treated (i.e. top, bottom, and side) with similar concentrations of bisabolangelone, a dramatic reduction in oviposition occurred and the eggs were mostly laid on the bottom of the beakers. While this compound did not significantly influence egg hatch, it inhibited the normal upward movement of the adults in the cups and migration of the newly hatched larvae through perforations of the lids.

Antifeedant activity of bisabolangelone and its analogs against larvae of Pieris brassicae

Bisabolangelone and three analogs were assayed, under laboratory conditions, for their antifeedant activity against Pieris brassicae L. (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) larvae. The results of dual-choice studies revealed that the potent antifeedant activity of bisabolangelone is greatly reduced or lost in the analogs. Insecticidal activity observed in the former was not detected either. Further studies using the lower rates of bisabolangelone showed that the absence of a preferable food resulted in a drastic reduction in feeding and growth, and produced high mortality and inhibition of molting. No developmental deformities reported in stored product insects treated with bisabolangelone were observed in P. brassicae during our studies.

---

Zusammenfassung Bisabolangelone und drei Analoge wurden unter Laboratoriumsbedingungen auf ihre frasshemmende Wirkung in Raupen von Pieris brassicae L. (Lepidoptera: Pieridae) geprüft. Die Resultate von Zweifach-Wahlversuchen zeigten, dass sowohl die frasshemmende als auch die insektizide Wirkung von Bisabolangelone in den Analogen stark reduziert ist oder ganz verloren ging. Weitere Untersuchungen mit niedrigen Bisabolangelone-Dosen zeigten, dass das Fehlen von wohlschmeckender Nahrung zu einer drastischen Reduktion der Nahrungsaufnahme und des Wachstums der Raupen sowie zur Verhinderung der Häutung und zu hoher Mortalität führt. Deformationen, wie sie von bisabolangelone-behandelten Vorratsschädlingen gemeldet wurden, konnten bei P. brassicae nicht beobachtet werden.

     

The membrane-stabilizing action of zinc carnosine (Z-103) in stress-induced gastric ulceration in rats

Zinc compounds have been shown to antagonize various types of gastric ulceration in rats. Zinc carnosine (Z-103), a newly developed agent was, therefore, examined for its antiulcer effect in stress-induced ulceration and also its membrane stabilizing action in rat stomachs. Cold-restraint (restrained at 4 degrees C for 2 h) stress induced severe hemorrhagic lesions together with increased mast cell degranulation and beta-glucuronidase release in the gastric glandular mucosa. Z-103 pretreatment with a single oral dose (3, 10 or 30 mg/kg) reversed these actions in a dose-dependent manner. When the compound was incubated in concentrations of 10(-7, 10(-6), 10(-5) or 10(-4) M, with isolated hepatic lysosomes, it significantly reduced the spontaneous release of beta-glucuronidase in the medium. The present study not only demonstrates the antiulcer effect of Z-103 but also indicates that the protective action is likely to be mediated by its membrane-stabilizing action on mast cells and lysosomes in the gastric glandular mucosa.     

Attenuation of stress-induced gastric lesions by lansoprazole, PD-136450 and ranitidine in rats

Combining restraint with cold temperature (4°C) consistently induces gastric ulceration in rats after 3.5 h. The cold restraint-stress (CRS) method provides a suitable model for acute ulcer investigations. This study compares the antiulcer activities of lansoprazole (a proton pump inhibitor), PD-136450 (CCK(2)/gastrin receptor antagonist) and ranitidine (histamine H(2) receptor antagonist) on CRS-induced gastric ulcers in rats. The results have shown that lansoprazole, which is a potent anti-secretory agent, provides complete protection in this model of ulcer formation. The use of indomethacin pretreatment to inhibit the prostaglandin (PG) synthesis and N(G)-nitro L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) pretreatment to inhibit nitric oxide synthase did not alter the lansoprazole-induced inhibition of ulcer index obtained in the untreated Wistar rats indicating that these two systems were not involved in the activation of lansoprazole. PD-136450, an effective anti-secretory agent against gastrin- but not dimaprit-induced stimulation, evoked a dose-dependent inhibition of CRS-induced gastric ulcers. The results show that both PG and nitric oxide pathways can influence the inhibitory effect of PD-136450 against CRS-induced gastric ulcer. The antiulcer activities of both lansoprazole and PD-136450 were compared to that of ranitidine. The results showed that ranitidine was more potent than lansoprazole and PD-136450 in inhibiting CRS-induced gastric ulcers and its effect was shown to be influenced by PG as well as nitric oxide synthase. The results of this study have demonstrated that although lansoprazole, PD-136450 and ranitidine were protective against CRS-induced gastric ulcers, the antiulcer activities of PD-136450 and ranitidine involved both PG and nitric oxide pathways, while lansoprazole acted independently of these two systems during CRS.     

Up-regulation of endothelin-1 in gastric mucosal inflammatory responses to Helicobacter pylori Lipopolysaccharide: effect of omeprazole and sucralfate.

BACKGROUND: Helicobacter pylori is recognized as a primary etiologic factor in the development of gastric disease and the product of particular significance to the virulent action of the bacterium is its cell wall lipopolysaccharide. We applied the animal model of H. pylori lipopolysaccharide-induced acute gastritis to study the effect of antiulcer agents, omeprazole and sucralfate, on the course of mucosal inflammatory responses by analyzing the interplay between the extent of epithelial cell apoptosis and the mucosal expression of endothelin-1 (ET-1), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and the activity of constitutive (cNOS) and inducible (NOS-2) nitric oxide synthase. METHODS: Rats pretreated twice daily for 3 consecutive days with omeprazole at 40 mg/kg, sucralfate at 100 mg/kg or the vehicle, were subjected to intragastric application of H. pylori lipopolysaccharide at 50 microg/animal, and after 2, 4, and 10 additional days on the antiulcer drug or vehicle regimen their mucosal tissue used for histologic and biochemical assessment. RESULTS: In the absence of antiulcer agents, H. pylori lipopolysaccharide elicited within 2 days a pattern of acute mucosal inflammatory responses accompanied by a massive epithelial cell apoptosis, a 2.9-fold increase in the mucosal expression of ET-1, an 11.7-fold enhancement in TNF-alpha, and a 9.3-fold increase in NOS-2, while cNOS activity showed a 5.5-fold decrease. The extent of mucosal inflammatory involvement reached a maximum by the 4th day and showed a decline by the 10th day. This was reflected in a marked reduction in epithelial cell apoptosis, decrease in the mucosal expression of ET-1, TNF-alpha and NOS-2, and the recovery in cNOS activity. Comparing to the vehicle controls, treatment with proton pump inhibitor, omeprazole, led at the end of a 10 day period to a 48.3% reduction in the extent of mucosal inflammatory involvement elicited by H. pylori lipopolysaccharide, while a 74.2% reduction in the mucosal inflammatory involvement was achieved with gastroprotective agent, sucralfate. Moreover, this advantage of sucralfate over omeprazole in countering the lipopolysaccharide-induced changes was reflected at the end of 10 day treatment period in a 20.4% greater decrease in apoptosis, a 47.5% greater reduction in TNF-alpha and a 50.7% greater reduction in ET-1. However, both agents exerted similar influence on the restoration of gastric mucosal cNOS activity and showed a comparable effect at the end of a 10 day treatment in countering the lipopolysaccharide-induced increase in the expression of NOS-2. CONCLUSIONS: The findings suggest that an increase in the mucosal ET-1 level elicited by H. pylori lipopolysaccharide, combined with a decline in cNOS may be responsible for the induction of TNF-alpha and triggering the inflammatory process. We also show that sucralfate exhibits greater efficacy than omeprazole in suppressing the H. pylori-induced mucosal inflammatory responses. This property of sucralfate may well be due to its ability to suppress the mucosal rise in ET-1.
