Chromone has emerged as one of the most important synthetic scaffolds for antitumor activity, which promotes the development of candidate drugs with better activity. In this study, a series of nitrogen mustard derivatives of chromone were designed and synthesised, in order to discover promising anti-breast tumour candidates. Almost all target derivatives showed antiproliferative activity against MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cell lines. In particular, methyl (S)-3-(4-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl)-2-(5-(((6-methoxy-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methyl)amino)-5-oxopentanamido)propanoate showed the most potent antiproliferative activity with IC50 values of 1.83 and 1.90 μM, respectively, and it also exhibited certain selectivity between tumour cells and normal cells. Further mechanism exploration against MDA-MB-231 cells showed that it possibly induced G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis by generating intracellular ROS and activating DNA damage. In addition, it also inhibited MDA-MB-231 cells metastasis, invasion and adhesion. Overall, methyl (S)-3-(4-(bis(2-chloroethyl)amino)phenyl)-2-(5-(((6-methoxy-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)methyl)amino)-5-oxopentanamido)propanoate showed potent antitumor activities and relatively low side effects, and deserved further investigation. 相似文献

The purpose of this study is the analysis of the relationship of blood serum apolipoprotein E (apoE), total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG) and high-density and low-density lipoproteins (HDL, LDL), with body mass index (BMI), relative body surface area (RBSA) and body muscle (BM) and body fat (BF). The subjects are males and females aged 14-16 (adolescent age group 1: n1M = 141, n1F = 151) and 18-25 (young adult group 2, n2M = 16, n2F = 46). Significant correlations of serum TG and HDL with somatometric indicators were not observed. In the female samples, TC content directly correlates (p < 0.05) with BF (r1 = 0.164; r2 = 0.418) and negatively correlates with BM (r1 = -0.165; r2 = -0.352). The blood serum concentration of apoE is significantly correlated with body composition in adolescent females (for BF r1 = -0.168; for BM r1 = 0.266; p < 0.05); in males 14-16 years old, the both correlations have a significance level p < 0.06. In young adult females TC and LDL content negatively correlates with RBSA (r2 = -0.386 and -0.377 respectively; p < 0.05) and positively correlates with BMI (r2 = 0.413 and 0.415 respectively; p < 0.05). Adolescent females and young adult females have opposite relationships between FC and apoE concentration. In females 14-15 years old apoE concentration decreases as FC increases. In females 16-17 the correlation disappears, and in older females apoE concentration and FC increase together. 相似文献

Summary Mapping of monoaminergic systems in the brain of the newt Triturus alpestris was achieved with antisera against (1) thyrosine hydroxylase (TH), (2) formaldehyde-conjugated dopamine (DA), and (3) formaldehyde-conjugated serotonin (5-HT). In the telencephalon, the striatum was densely innervated by a large number of 5-HT-, DA-and TH-immunoreactive (IR) fibers; IR fibers were more scattered in the amygdala, the medial and lateral forebrain bundles, and the anterior commissure. In the anterior and medial diencephalon, TH-IR perikarya contacting the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF-C perikarya) were located in the preoptic recess organ (PRO), the organum vasculosum laminae terminalis and the suprachiasmatic nucleus. Numerous TH-IR perikarya, not contacting the CSF, were present in the posterior preoptic nucleus and the ventral thalamus. At this level, DA-IR CSF-C neurons were only located in the PRO. In the posterior diencephalon, large populations of 5-HT-IR and DA-IR CSF-C perikarya were found in the paraventricular organ (PVO) and the nucleus infundibularis dorsalis (NID); the dorsal part of the NID additionally presented TH-IR CSF-C perikarya. Most regions of the diencephalon showed an intense monoaminergic innervation. In addition, numerous TH-IR, DA-IR and 5-HT-IR fibers, orginating from the anterior and posterior hypothalamic nuclei, extended ventrally and reached the median eminence and the pars intermedia of the pituitary gland. In the midbrain, TH-IR perikarya were located dorsally in the pretectal area. Ventrally, a large group of TH-IR cell bodies and some weakly stained DA-IR and 5-HT-IR neurons were observed in the posterior tuberculum. No dopaminergic system equivalent to the substantia nigra was revealed. The possible significance of the differences in the distribution of TH-IR and DA-IR neurons is discussed, with special reference to the CSF-C neurons.Abbreviations

The expressions of terminal sugars in synovial and plasma fibronectins were studied in relation to rheumatoid arthritis (RA)
progression defined according to the early, established and late radiological changes in the patients’ hands. The relative
amounts of sialic acid and fucose were analyzed by lectin-ELISA using appropriate sialic acid-linked α2-3 (Maackia amurensis) and α2-6 (Sambucus nigra) lectins as well as fucose-linked α1-6 (Aleuria aurantia), α1-2 (Ulex europaeus), and α1-3 (Tetragonolobus purpureus). In the early RA group, the synovial fibronectin reactivities were the lowest with the all lectins used. In the established
and late groups, relative sialylation and fucosylation significantly increased. However, sialylation negligibly decreased,
whereas fucosylation remained at nearly the same level in the late group. Moreover, the expression of α1-6-linked fucose was
found to be related to disease activity. In contrast, plasma fibronectin reactivity with lectins showed different dynamic
alterations. In the early RA group, the reactivity of fibronectin with the lectins used was similar to that of healthy individuals,
whereas it increased significantly in the established RA group compared with the early and normal plasma groups. In the late
RA group it decreased to a level similar to that of the normal group. The lower expressions of terminal sugars in synovial
fibronectin were mainly associated with the early degenerative processes of RA. In conclusion, such alterations may be applicable
as a stage-specific marker for diagnosis and therapy of RA patients. The higher expression of terminal sugars in fibronectin
could be associated with repair and adaptation processes in longstanding disease. 相似文献

In sandy loam infested with Globodera rostochiensis (2–95 eggs g-1 soil) the yield of Desiree potatoes was decreased by 8·2 t ha-1 for every increment of 20 eggs g-1 soil. Oxamyl incorporated in the seedbed at 5 kg ha-1 before planting prevented significant loss of yield and damage to the tubers and minimised nematode increase. Cara and Maris Piper potatoes, which were resistant and tolerant to G. rostochiensis usually responded less to oxamyl than did susceptible cultivars. In a range of cultivars, yield responses to oxamyl treatment of soil infested with G. rostochiensis often differed from those in soil infested with G. pallida. In field experiments, oxamyl controlled G. pallida less than G. rostochiensis. In pots, such differential control of the two species by oxamyl was not observed. 相似文献

We investigated the effect of age on breathing and total pulmonary resistance (RL) during sleep by studying elderly (>65 yr) and young (25-38 yr) people without sleep apnea (EN and YN, respectively) matched for body mass index (BMI). To determine the impact of sleep apnea on age-related changes in breathing, we studied elderly and young apneic patients (EA and YA, respectively) matched for apnea and BMI. In all groups (n = 11), breathing during periods of stable sleep was analyzed to evaluate the intrinsic variability of respiratory control mechanisms. In the absence of sleep apnea, the variability of the breathing was similar in the elderly and young [mean (+/- SD) coefficient of variation (CV) of tidal volume (VT); wake: EN 21.0 +/- 14.9%, YN 14.7 +/- 5.5%; sleep: EN 14.0 +/- 6.0%; YN 11.5 +/- 6.4%]. In patients with sleep apnea, breathing during stable sleep was more irregular, but there were no age-related differences (CV of VT; wake: EA 22.0 +/- 11.6%, YA 16.7 +/- 11.3%; sleep: EA 32.8 +/- 24.9%, YA 25.2 +/- 16.3%). In addition, EN tended to have a higher RL (n = 6, RL midinspiration, wake: EN 7.1 +/- 3.0; YN 9.1 +/- 6.4 cmH(2)O. l(-1). s, sleep: EN 17.5 +/- 11.7; YN 9.8 +/- 2.0 cmH(2)O. l(-1). s). We conclude that aging per se does not contribute to the intrinsic variability of respiratory control mechanisms, although there may be a lower probability of finding elderly people without respiratory instability. 相似文献

The distributions of endosulfan (ED) residues (α-, β-isomers, and sulfate-metabolite) in cucumbers grown in soils treated with ED at concentrations of 20 and 40 mg kg-1 were assessed using indoor and outdoor experiments. In all treatments, degradation rates of the α-isomer in soils were higher than that of the β-isomer. In the indoor tests, uptake amounts of total ED by cucumbers, after 15 d of growth, were 7.8 and 14.5 mg kg-1 in 20 and 40 mg kg-1-treated pots, respectively. For growth time from 15 to 30 d, uptake amounts in 20 and 40 mg kg-1-treated pots were 3.8 and 7.9 mg kg-1, respectively. Outdoor tests resulted in smaller ED residues in cucumbers than those in indoor tests. In both indoor and outdoor tests, ED residues absorbed were highest in roots, and the α-isomer was the more frequently absorbed isomer. These results will be useful for determining management criteria for soil persistent pesticides. 相似文献

Summary Antibodies to histamine were used for immunocytochemical studies of the visual system in the flies Calliphora erythrocephala and Musca domestica. Specific immunolabeling of photoreceptors was found both in the compound eyes and ocelli of both species. In the compound eyes histamine-like immunoreactivity (HA-IR) was found in all the short visual fibers (photoreceptors R1–6) and one type of long visual fiber (photoreceptor R8). In addition, the ocellar photoreceptors also show HA-IR. In view of earlier biochemical and pharmacological/physiological findings by Elias and Evans (1983) and Hardie (1987) it thus seems likely that histamine is a neurotransmitter in insect photoreceptors. Interestingly, the second type of long visual fiber (photoreceptor R7) has recently been found to be GABA-immunoreactive (Datum et al. 1986). The two types of long visual fibers may hence use different transmitters which act on different receptors of the postsynaptic neurons in the second visual neuropil, the medulla. In addition to the photoreceptors in the retina and ocelli, we found processes of HA-IR neurons in one of the optic lobe neuropils, the lobula. This finding indicates that histamine may also be a transmitter in certain interneurons in the visual system.Abbreviations

In 18 patients with gastrointestinal manifestations of digoxin toxicity the mean serum digoxin concentration (+/- SEM) was 3.16 micrograms/l (+/- 0.25), the calcium to potassium ratio 0.31 (+/- 0.01), and the mean arterial pH 7.406 (+/- 0.017). In contrast 19 patients with digoxin induced automaticity had a mean serum digoxin concentration of 1.24 micrograms/l (+/- 0.15; p less than 0.001), a calcium to potassium ratio of 0.38 (+/- 0.01; p less than 0.01), and an arterial pH of 7.498 (+/- 0.008; p less than 0.001). Eight out of 13 patients with digoxin induced cardiotoxicity had serum concentrations of the drug within the therapeutic range (0.8-2.0 micrograms/l). The calcium to potassium ratio, however, was lower than in the patients with automaticity (0.31 +/- 0.02; p less than 0.01) and the arterial pH was 7.370 (+/- 0.033; p less than 0.05). Serum magnesium concentrations were similar in all groups. In this study patients with digoxin induced gastrointestinal symptoms had high serum concentrations of the drug, whereas those with drug induced automaticity had therapeutic concentrations. This second group, however, was identified by their higher calcium to potassium ratios and higher pH values. 相似文献

Water stress is an increasing environmental constraint affecting tomato growth and yield in Mediterranean areas. Solanum pennellii is a wild tomato species that exhibits a higher water use efficiency compared with cultivated S. lycopersicum. In particular, a cultivated line carrying a small S. pennellii region on chromosome 9 (IL 9-2-5) was identified as more tolerant to water deficit. In this work, the tolerant (IL 9-2-5) and the susceptible (M82) genotypes were subjected to three different water regimes: irrigation with 100% (V1), 50% (V2) and 25% (V3) field capacity. To evaluate the physiological response of IL 9-2-5 and M82 to water deficit, leaf functional traits, plant biomass production and maximal PSII photochemical efficiency were measured together with photosynthetic pigments and phenolic compounds. The higher tolerance to water deficiency of IL 9-2-5 was associated with the development of a better antioxidant system, especially in treatment V3. In addition, IL 9-2-5 had higher values of sclerophylly and leaf dry matter content thus confirming that the tolerance of IL 9-2-5 can be attributed to traits related to leaf morphology and physiology. In future, identification of polymorphisms in key-genes controlling these traits can guide breeding efforts aimed at improving susceptible genotypes. 相似文献

Effects of season and phase of the estrous cycle on steroidogenesis and LH-FSH sensitivity of large ovine follicles perfused in vitro 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The aims of this study were to compare stero?dogenesis (progesterone, androstenedione and estradiol production) and response to LH and FSH challenge by whole perifused follicles 4 to 5.5 mm in diameter, obtained at different periods of the breeding season (onset, middle, end), during anestrus and the luteal phase. We have observed that all follicles do not have the same stero?dogenetic potential and do not respond with the same intensity to LH and FSH. At the middle of the breeding season, LH and FSH supplementation was ineffective in increasing progesterone secretion by follicles (0.19+/-0.05 vs. 0.20+/-0.03 ng/mL). In contrast, gonadotrophin challenge elicited significant (P<0.05) increases in androstenedione (0.94+/-0.34 vs. 0.35+/-0.09 ng/mL) and estradiol (120+/-11 vs. 49+/-10 pg/mL) production immediately after its administration. At the onset of the breeding season, steroidogenesis was identical under both basal and gonadotrophin-stimulated conditions unlike that in middle of the breeding season. However follicles were more sensitive to the gonadotrophin challenge in terms of estradiol production than those collected at the middle of the breeding season (220+/-45 vs. 120+/-11 pg/mL). Follicles obtained at the end of the breeding season featured higher progesterone (2.61+/-0.81 vs. 0.19+/-0.05 ng/mL; P<0.05) and lower estradiol production (10+/-3 vs. 49+/-10 pg/mL; P<0.05) that was not influenced by LH and FSH. Basal androstenedione secretion was comparable to that observed at the middle of the breeding season (0.42+/-0.10 vs. 0.35+/-0.09 ng/mL), but the response to stimulation was significantly higher (1.82+/-0.61 vs. 0.94+/-0.34 ng/mL; P<0.05). In anoestrus and the luteal phase, follicles presented higher progesterone and androstenedione and lower estradiol concentrations (P<0.05) compared with those obtained during the follicular phase at the middle of the breeding season. In the luteal phase, follicles remained capable of responding to LH-FSH challenge by increasing estradiol secretion (9+/-1 before and 21+/-6 pg/mL after LH-FSH; P<0.05). In contrast, in the luteal phase, estradiol production was not increased by LH-FSH challenge (7+/-2 vs. 12+/-4 pg/mL). 相似文献

(Pro-Pro-Gly)10 forms single crystals, providing X-ray diffraction data to 0.22 nm resolution. In the crystals, the polypeptides form triplexes that aggregate end-to-end in quasi-infinite helices with axial translation per tripeptide h = 0.287 nm and the corresponding rotation t = ?102.9 °. The structure, which may be an allomorph of collagen, has been refined by the linked-atom least-squares procedure. In addition, three water molecules per tripeptide have been detected by Fourier difference syntheses. One of them forms an intrachain hydrogen-bonded bridge O(Pro2) - - - W - - - O(Gly). There are also interchain hydrogen bonds (Gly)NH - - - O(Pro1) within the triplex. 相似文献

In the past five years, poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation has developed greatly with the help of molecular biology and the improvement of biochemical techniques. In this article, we describe the physico-chemical properties of the enzymes responsible for the synthesis and degradation of poly(ADP-ribose), respectively poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase and poly(ADP-ribose) glycohydrolase. We then discuss the possible roles of this polymer in DNA repair and replication as well as in cellular differentiation and transformation. Finally, we put forward various hypotheses in order to better define the function of this polymer found only in eucaryotes. (Mol Cell Biochem122: 171–193, 1993)Abbreviations 3-AB

《Matrix biology》2014
The fibulin family of extracellular matrix/matricellular proteins is composed of long fibulins (fibulin-1, -2, -6) and short fibulins (fibulin-3, -4, -5, -7) and is involved in protein–protein interaction with the components of basement membrane and extracellular matrix proteins. Fibulin-1, -2, -3, -4, and -5 bind the monomeric form of elastin (tropoelastin) in vitro and fibulin-2, -3, -4, and -5 are shown to be involved in various aspects of elastic fiber development in vivo. In particular, fibulin-4 and -5 are critical molecules for elastic fiber assembly and play a non-redundant role during elastic fiber formation. Despite manifestation of systemic elastic fiber defects in all elastogenic tissues, fibulin-5 null (Fbln5−/−) mice have a normal lifespan. In contrast, fibulin-4 null (Fbln4−/−) mice die during the perinatal period due to rupture of aortic aneurysms, indicating differential functions of fibulin-4 and fibulin-5 in normal development. In this review, we will update biochemical characterization of fibulin-4 and fibulin-5 and discuss their roles in elastogenesis and outside of elastogenesis based on knowledge obtained from loss-of-function studies in mouse and in human patients with FBLN4 or FBLN5 mutations. Finally, we will evaluate therapeutic options for matrix-related diseases. 相似文献

Climate change greatly influences coffee production, especially in areas infested with plant-parasitic nematodes. In this study, coffee genotypes showed differences in their morphological and physiological characteristics when subjected to a water deficit and parasitism by Meloidogyne paranaensis. The cultivar IPR 100 had the largest superficial and volumetric root system area, even when parasitized. The two progenies (MG 0179-1 and MG 0179-3) and the cultivar Catuaí IAC 62 had a similar surface area (p < .05) when parasitized. However, the root surface area and volume of MG 0179-3 increased by 96% and 400%, respectively, when parasitized by M. paranaensis. On the other hand, Catuaí IAC 62 had a 31% reduction in root surface area. Catuai 62 and IPR 100 showed higher sensitivity to drought when parasitized because of the increased photochemical sensitivity and reduction in photochemical quenching. In MG 0179-1 and MG 0179-3, an increase in non-photochemical quenching occurred in response to stress, indicating that these progenies use a photochemical response to protect photosystem II. In this work, MG 0179-3, which is resistant to M. paranaensis, was remarkable because, interestingly, the infestation caused an increase in its root surface area. In addition, MG 0179-3 had relatively good photochemical performance under water deficit and M. paranaensis parasitism. 相似文献

Summary Two newly isolated strains of Methanosarcina, strains JKAD and DALS, were grown in monoculture and in mixed culture in combination with Acetobacterium woodii WB1. Methanosarcina strains convert acetate into methane and carbon dioxide while Acetobacterium woodii grows on fructose, producing acetate via homoacetate fermentation. Monocultures of A. woodii in continuous culture consumed up to 6 mmoles g-1 dry weight (dw) h-1 of fructose and produced up to 12.9 mmoles g-1 dw h-1 of acetate at a dilution rate (D) of 0.13 h-1. In batch growth the methanogenic bacteria produced up to 12.1 mmoles g-1 dw h-1 of CH4 at a specific growth rate of 0.043 h-1. In continuous cultivation the specific growth rate and the specific methane production of Methanosarcina were lower than in batch cultures, with values of 0.031 h-1 and 3.1 mmoles g-1 dw h-1 of methane, respectively. In combination, A. woodii and Methanosarcina strain DALS in batch cultures completely converted fructose to methane and carbon dioxide with a maximum specific methane production rate of 1.9 mmoles g-1 dw h-1 of methane. In continuous cultivation these mixed cultures produced between 1.2 and 2 mmoles g-1 dw h-1 of CH4 at a dilution rate of up to 0.043 h-1. The methanogens were washed out at D values higher than 0.043 h-1 for A. woodii and Methanosarcina strain JKAD, and higher than 0.05 h-1 for A. woodii and Methanosarcina strain DALS. Data obtained from defined mixed cultures allow one to follow interactions in a mixed population of two species with different growth constants. 相似文献

Biosynthesis and desaturation of prokaryotic galactolipids in leaves and isolated chloroplasts from spinach 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2 下载免费PDF全文
Mono- and digalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG and DGDG) were isolated from the leaves of sixteen 16:3 plants. In all of these plant species, the sn-2 position of MGDG was more enriched in C16 fatty acids than sn-2 of DGDG. The molar ratios of prokaryotic MGDG to prokaryotic DGDG ranged from 4 to 10. This suggests that 16:3 plants synthesize more prokaryotic MGDG than prokaryotic DGDG. In the 16:3 plant Spinacia oleracea L. (spinach), the formation of prokaryotic galactolipids was studied both in vivo and in vitro. In intact spinach leaves as well as in chloroplasts isolated from these leaves, radioactivity from [1-14C]acetate accumulated 10 times faster in MGDG than in DGDG. After 2 hours of incorporation, most labeled galactolipids from leaves and all labeled galactolipids from isolated chloroplasts were in the prokaryotic configuration. Both in vivo and in vitro, the desaturation of labeled palmitate and oleate to trienoic fatty acids was higher in MGDG than in DGDG. In leaves, palmitate at the sn-2 position was desaturated in MGDG but not in DGDG. In isolated chloroplasts, palmitate at sn-2 similarly was desaturated only in MGDG, but palmitate and oleate at the sn-1 position were desaturated in MGDG as well as in DGDG. Apparently, palmitate desaturase reacts with sn-1 palmitate in either galactolipid, but does not react with the sn-2 fatty acid of DGDG. These results demonstrate that isolated spinach chloroplasts can synthesize and desaturate prokaryotic MGDG and DGDG. The finally accumulating molecular species, MGDG(18:3/16:3) and DGDG(18:3/16:0), are made by the chloroplasts in proportions similar to those found in leaves. 相似文献

A study to assess which environmental or developmental factors predominate in the biosynthesis of lipids of Laminaria japonica Aresch. blades was undertaken by means of 14C-labelling technique. In experiment 1, kelp blades at different growth stages were collected in different cultural seasons. In experiment 2, kelp blades of different sizes and maturity cultured simultaneously for two months in the same sea area were collected at the same time.The following results were obtained. In experiment 1, the 14C-incorporation into whole lipids was lowest in juvenile blades collected at the end of autumn and highest in blades of middle size collected in winter. However, the highest counts were incorporated in PC among complex lipid classes from all size classes of blades in both experiments 1 and 2. In experiment 2, 14C-incorporation patterns of individual lipid classes were characteristically different depending on the sizes of blades even under the same cultural condition. Thus, the biosynthesis of lipids in this kelp seems to be affected essentially by developmental factors.Abbreviation Comp. lip.
