蝉虫草子实体与发酵菌丝体胞内多糖成分分析

比较蝉虫草子实体、孢梗束、虫体以及蝉虫草发酵菌丝体的胞内多糖含量、单糖组成和分子量差异,结果表明,蝉虫草子实体与发酵菌丝中胞内多糖的含量和组成均存在差异。葡萄糖、半乳糖和甘露糖是蝉虫草发酵菌丝体和子实体粗多糖中主要的3种单糖,阿拉伯糖和木糖是子实体粗多糖中的特征性单糖,而果糖属于菌丝体的特征性单糖。子实体粗多糖中高分子量组分（>1×10 ⁶Da）的相对含量明显高于菌丝体粗多糖。本研究对提升蝉虫草发酵多糖产品品质、促进蝉虫草开发应用具有参考价值。

利用索氏萃取技术,依次采用石油醚、乙酸乙酯、丙酮、无水乙醇和甲醇等5种溶剂对蝉虫草纯粉进行分级萃取,运用傅里叶变换红外光谱分析法和气相色谱-质谱联用技术对5级萃取物进行分析鉴定。傅里叶变换红外光谱分析显示萃取物中含有与烯烃类、羧酸类、酯类、醇类和酮类等化合物相关的C-H、C=O、C-O和C=C等官能团。气相色谱-质谱联用技术共鉴定出有机小分子化合物34种,以酯类和脂肪酸类为主,多为碳链长度为15-20的长链脂肪酸及对应的酯,其中十八碳不饱和脂肪酸相对含量高达28.95%;分别存在于两种或以上萃取物中的有机化合物共有11种;仅存于石油醚萃取物中的化合物6种,乙酸乙酯萃取物中3种,丙酮萃取物中2种,无水乙醇萃取物中6种,甲醇萃取物中6种。在一定极性范围内,利用溶剂的极性梯度变化,可实现蝉虫草中活性物质的按极性梯度分离;采用分级萃取技术可有效分离蝉虫草中部分化学成分。鉴定结果充实了蝉虫草中化合物的种类资源,为蝉虫草中活性物质谱图库的完善、构效关系的建立及蝉虫草产品的利用开发提供支撑。     

蝉花虫草活性成分的抗惊厥作用

本研究采用活性追踪的方法,逐步从人工培养蝉花虫草分离获得A（50%乙醇回流提取）、B（膜分离）、C（大孔树脂洗脱）和D（Sephadex LH20柱纯化）等4种样品,单一化合物D纯度为98.62%,鉴定为N6‐(2‐羟乙基)腺苷[N6‐(2‐hydroxyethyl)‐adenosine,HEA]。研究各样品对戊四唑（pentylenetetrazol,PTZ）诱导的小鼠惊厥模型的影响,以及选择性腺苷A1受体（AA1R）拮抗剂DPCPX或选择性腺苷A2A受体（AA2AR）拮抗剂ZM241385对HEA作用的影响,并采用苏木精-伊红（hematoxylin-eosin,HE）染色、免疫组化（immunohistochemical,IHC）染色和蛋白质免疫印迹（Western blot,WB）等技术进一步探究HEA抗惊厥作用的机制。结果表明,各样品（i.p.）均有抗惊厥活性,HEA（40–60mg/kg,i.p.）能显著延长惊厥小鼠的存活时间和降低死亡率,DPCPX（2mg/kg,i.p.）能够拮抗HEA的抗惊厥作用,而ZM241385无此作用;HE、IHC和WB的结果进一步揭示DPCPX显著降低HEA的作用。综上所述,蝉花虫草的HEA具有抗惊厥作用,并且可能通过激活腺苷A1受体而起作用。     

蝉花虫草提取物N~6-(2-羟乙基)腺苷对小鼠肾脏缺血再灌注损伤的保护作用

Alleviation of Liver Dysfunction,Oxidative Stress,and Inflammation Underlines the Protective Effects of Polysaccharides from Cordyceps cicadae on High Sugar/High Fat Diet-Induced Metabolic Syndrome in Rats

This study investigated the protective effects of two polysaccharides (CPA-1 and CPB-2) from Cordyceps cicadae against high fructose/high fat diet (HF/HFD) induced obesity and metabolic disorders in rats. Rats were either fed with normal diet or HF/HFD and treated with CPA-1 and CPB-2 (100 and 300 mg/kg) for 11 weeks. Administration of CPA-1 and CPB-2 significantly and dose dependently reduced body and liver weight, insulin and glucose tolerance, serum insulin and glucose levels. Furthermore, serum and hepatic lipid profiles, liver function enzymes and proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6) were markedly reduced. Additionally, CPA-1 and CPB-2 treatment alleviated hepatic oxidative stress by reducing lipid peroxidation level (MDA) and upregulating glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) activities as well as ameliorated histological alterations through the reduction of hepatic lipid accumulation. These results suggested that the polysaccharides from C. cicadae showed protective effects against HF/HFD induced metabolic disturbances and may be considered as a dietary supplement for treating obesity.

Magnetic circular dichroism and spin equilibrium of methemoglobin and its subunits

The intensity of the Soret magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of various complexes of methemoglobin subunits (α⁺ and β⁺) as well as methemoglobin (metHb A) was correlated well with the spin states of ferric heme. Upon the subunit association, spin state transition toward higher spin was observed only in high spin derivatives and the changes in spin state were due to mainly those of β⁺ chains. The effect of an allostric effector, inositol hexaphosphate (IHP), on the MCD spectra of metHb A derivatives was observed much significantly for high spin forms than low spin ones.

A comparative study on the production of exopolysaccharides between two entomopathogenic fungi Cordyceps militaris and Cordyceps sinensis in submerged mycelial cultures

AIMS: The present study comparatively investigates the optimal culture conditions for the production of exopolysaccharides (EPS) and cordycepin during submerged mycelial culture of two entomopathogenic fungi Cordyceps militaris and Cordyceps sinensis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Fermentations were performed in flasks and in 5-l stirred-tank fermenters. In the case of C. militaris, the highest mycelial biomass (22.9 g l(-1)) and EPS production (5 g l(-1)) were achieved in a medium of 40 g l(-1) sucrose, 5 g l(-1) corn steep powder at 30 degrees C, and an initial pH 8.0. The optimum culture conditions for C. sinensis was shown to be (in g l(-1)) 20 sucrose, 25 corn steep powder, 0.78 CaCl2, 1.73 MgSO4.7H2O at 20 degrees C, and an initial pH 4.0, where the maximum mycelial biomass and EPS were 20.9 and 4.1 g l(-1) respectively. Cordycepin, another bioactive metabolite, was excreted at low levels during the early fermentation period (maximum 38.8 mg l(-1) in C. militaris; 18.2 mg l(-1) in C. sinensis). CONCLUSIONS: The two fungi showed different nutritional and environmental requirements in their submerged cultures. Overall, the concentrations of mycelial biomass, EPS and cordycepin achieved in submerged culture of C. militaris were higher than those of C. sinensis. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: C. militaris and C. sinensis are representative insect-born fungi which have been longstanding and widely used as traditional medicines in eastern Asia. Comparative studies between two fungi are currently not available and this is the first report on the optimum medium composition for submerged culture of C. sinensis.     

Synexin protein is non-selective in its ability to increase Ca2+-dependent aggregation of biological and artificial membranes

Synexin, a soluble protein which increases the specificity of Ca²⁺ to aggregate isolated bovine chromaffin granules was prepared from bovine adrenal medullary tissue by the method of Creutz, Pazoles and Pollard (J. Biol. Chem. $\text{253}$, 2858–2866, 1978). We also find that synexin increases both the initial rate and final amplitude of Ca²⁺-promoted aggregation of granule membranes. This effect is Ca²⁺-specific. However in contrast to Creutz $\text{et}\text{al}$, we find that synexin also potentiates aggregation of adrenal medulla and liver mitochondria and microsomes as well as phosphatidylserine vesicles. This lack of membrane specificity argues against the suggestion of Creutz $\text{et}\text{al}$ that synexin specifically binds the granule to the plasma membrane prior to exocytosis $\text{in}\text{vivo}$.     

培养基和栽培方式对蛹虫草子实体活性成分的影响

采用麦粒（W）、麦粒加蚕蛹粉（WW）、大米（R）、大米加蚕蛹粉（RW）的配料栽培方式,以及蚕蛹（CY）活体接种栽培方式培养蛹虫草子实体,比较蛹虫草子实体中多糖及核苷、游离糖醇和小分子糖类含量。结果表明：培养基和栽培方式影响蛹虫草多糖含量及其单糖组成和分子量分布,多糖含量最高的为蚕蛹活体接种培养的处理（CY）,多糖含量为6.19%,其他处理的多糖含量仅为CY的44.4%-62.8%;蚕蛹（CY）上培养的蛹虫草子实体中核苷类成分含量最高,在麦粒上培养获得的子实体中核苷含量显著高于在大米上的处理,并且麦粒添加蚕蛹粉后培养的子实体中尿苷、鸟苷、N⁶-(2-羟乙基)腺苷含量显著上升,大米添加蚕蛹粉后培养的子实体中尿苷、虫草素、N⁶-(2-羟乙基)腺苷含量显著上升;配料栽培的4个处理,其子实体中海藻糖含量为20.07%-23.40%,蚕蛹活体接种的处理（CY）海藻糖含量显著降低,为8.41%;添加蚕蛹粉后子实体中甘露醇含量显著降低。对各成分含量的数据进行归一化处理后进行蛹虫草品质的综合评价,在蚕蛹上培养的蛹虫草综合评分最高,麦粒为主要培养基培养的蛹虫草品质好于大米为主要培养基的,且添加蚕蛹粉的处理优于未添加的处理。     

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of N-[2- (hydroxyethyl)-N-(2-(7-guaninyl)ethyl)]methylamine, a reaction product between nitrogen mustard and DNA and its application to biological samples

Nitrogen mustard (HN2) is a bifunctional alkylating agent which is thought to cause cytotoxicity by covalently binding to DNA. Most studies to date have looked at qualitatively determining the presence of DNA–HN2 adducts from reactions with native DNA. The adduct which is predominately formed in these reactions is N-[2-(hydroxyethyl)-N-(2-(7-guaninyl)ethyl]methylamine (N7G). A simple and sensitive reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method for the determination of N7G from DNA using ultraviolet detection is described. DNA samples having been exposed to HN2 treatment were hydrolyzed and preseparated from high-molecular-mass material by filtration using a molecular mass cut-off of 3000. The mobile phase consisted of methanol–26 mM ammonium formate, pH 6.5 (24:76, v/v). N7G, as well as the internal standard, methoxyphenol, were separated within 30 min. The recovery of N7G after hydrolysis of the DNA reaction product was quantitative and limits of detection and quantification of 10 and 20 ng/ml, respectively, were calculated. The method was validated in DNA–HN2 dose response experiments. The N7G reaction product appears to be the first reaction product formed at lower ratios of HN2/DNA but its production plateaus at higher ratios of HN2/DNA probably due to increased formation of hitherto unknown adducts. The method is simple and sensitive and for this reason, may be suited for the determination of DNA/HN2 reaction products.
