Isolation of a specific granulopoiesis inhibitor from calf spleen and identification as glutathione

A small peptide was isolated from calf spleen, specifically inhibiting murine granulopoiesis in vitro. Purification involved ultrafiltration, anion-exchange chromatography with a FPLC system and reversed-phase chromatography on HPLC. Determination of the amino acid composition, following acid hydrolysis and phenyl isothiocyanate and dabsyl chloride derivatization, revealed the amino acids glutamic acid, cysteine and glycine. Although the N-terminal amino group was not blocked, peptide sequencing with common techniques was not possible. Comparison of the isolated peptide with the well-known tripeptide glutathione by HPLC and fast atom bombardment (FAB)/tandem mass spectrometry showed the identity of both substances. Moreover, glutathione was found to be a specific granulopoiesis inhibitor in vitro at 10-100 nM, a so far unknown property of this well-known peptide.     

Plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis of Elymus sibiricus cv. ‘chuancao No. 2’

The mature seeds, mesocotyls, and young leaf tips of Elymus sibiricus L. cv. ‘chuancao No. 2’ were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 5.0 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d) and 0.05 mg/L kinetin in the dark at 26°C, the calluses were produced. The rate of callus regeneration depended on the explants source and plant growth regulators. Plants regenerated from whitish-yellow-coloured compact nodular callus formed after subculturing for 8 weeks. Higher frequency (54%) of shoot differentiation was obtained from the embryo tissues of mature seed than from either mesocotyls (24%) or young leaf tip tissues (6%) when these calluses from different types of explants were cultured on plant regeneration medium containing half strength MS salts supplemented with 0.1 mg/L kinetin, 1.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 20 g/L sucrose. The green plants were rooted within 6 weeks in the root regeneration medium, and over 97% of these soil-established plants were obtained in the greenhouse when potted in a sand and peat mixture medium.     

LC-MS/MS determination of helicid in human plasma and its application in pharmacokinetic studies

Helicid is a traditional Chinese medicine used to treat headache and insomnia with definite effects. To facilitate pharmacokinetic studies of helicid in man, a sensitive and specific LC-MS/MS method for the quantitative detection of helicid in human plasma was developed and validated. The method involved the addition of bergeninum as the internal standard (IS), protein precipitation, HPLC separation, and quantification by MS/MS system using negative electrospray ionization in the multiple reaction monitoring mode (MRM). The precursor→product ion transitions were monitored at m/z 282.8→120.9 for helicid and m/z 326.9→192.2 for the IS, respectively. The lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) was 0.2 μg/L. The calibration curves for helicid was linear over a concentration range of 0.2-20 μg/L. The intra- and inter-batch analyses of QC samples at 0.4, 2, 20 μg/L indicated good precision (%R.S.D. between 2.69 and 5.47%) and accuracy (between 96.15 and 105.05%). The helicid was stable in human plasma stored at room temperature for at least 24h, 4°C for at least 24h, -20°C for at least 1 month, and for routine three freeze-thaw cycles. This accurate and specific assay provides a useful method for evaluating the pharmacokinetic profile of helicid in humans.     

Energy Harvesting from Breeze Wind (0.7–6 m s−1) Using Ultra‐Stretchable Triboelectric Nanogenerator

Wind is one of the most important sources of green energy, but the current technology for harvesting wind energy is only effective when the wind speed is beyond 3.5–4.0 m s^?1. This is mainly due to the limitation that the electromagnetic generator works best at high frequency. This means that light breezes cannot reach the wind velocity threshold of current wind turbines. Here, a high‐performance triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) for efficiently harvesting energy from an ambient gentle wind, especially for speeds below 3 m s^?1 is reported, by taking advantage of the relative high efficiency of TENGs at low‐frequency. Attributed to the multiplied‐frequency vibration of ultra‐stretchable and perforated electrodes, an average output of 20 mW m^?3 can be achieved with inlet wind speed of 0.7 m s^?1, while an average energy conversion efficiency of 7.8% at wind speed of 2.5 m s^?1 is reached. A self‐charging power package is developed and the applicability of the TENG in various light breezes is demonstrated. This work demonstrates the advantages of TENG technology for breeze energy exploitation and proposes an effective supplementary approach for current employed wind turbines and micro energy structure.     

叶面喷施亚精胺对高温胁迫下番茄叶绿素合成代谢的影响

以设施番茄栽培品种‘金棚朝冠’幼苗为试验材料,研究叶面喷施0.25 mmol·L~(-1)亚精胺(Spd)对高温胁迫下(38℃/28℃,昼/夜)番茄幼苗生长及叶绿素合成过程中前体物质含量、关键酶活性和叶绿素含量的影响,探讨Spd缓解番茄高温胁迫伤害的生理机制。结果表明:(1)高温胁迫显著抑制了番茄幼苗的生长,叶面喷施Spd可有效缓解高温胁迫对番茄幼苗地上部生长的抑制作用,但对于地下部的生长无显著缓解作用。(2)高温胁迫下番茄叶片叶绿素合成前体物质δ-氨基酮戊酸(ALA)和胆色素原(PBG)的含量显著提高,而尿卟啉原Ⅲ(UroⅢ)、原卟啉Ⅸ(ProtoⅨ)、镁-原卟啉Ⅸ(Mg-protoⅨ)和原叶绿素酸(Pchl)的含量显著降低,证明叶绿素前体由PBG向UroⅢ的转化受阻,导致叶绿素a(Chla)、总叶绿素(Chlt)含量和Chla/Chlb显著降低。(3)叶面喷施Spd能增强高温胁迫下胆色素原脱氨酶(PBGD)活性,有效缓解了高温胁迫对PBG到UroⅢ转化的阻碍作用,促进PBG之后叶绿素合成前体物质的合成,Chla含量和Chla/Chlb显著增加。研究发现,高温胁迫显著抑制番茄幼苗的生长,叶面喷施Spd可通过显著增强PBGD活性来缓解由PBG向UroⅢ的受阻程度,促进高温胁迫下番茄叶片的叶绿素前体合成,提高叶绿素含量和番茄植株的生长量,减轻高温胁迫对番茄幼苗生长的伤害。

Proteomic methods reveal cyclophilin a function as a host restriction factor against rotavirus infection

Rotavirus (RV) infection is the main cause of acute dehydrating diarrhea in infants and young children below 5 years old worldwide. RV infection causes a global shutoff of host proteins as many other viruses do. However, previous studies revealed that RV could selectively upregulated the expression of some host proteins that then played important roles in RV infection. To globally explor such host proteins that were upregulated in early human rotavirus (HRV) infection, proteomic methods were used and a total of ten upregulated host proteins were unambiguously identified. Cyclophilin A (CYPA), a peptidyl‐prolyl cis‐trans isomerase, was among these upregulated host proteins. Following infection, CYPA was recruited to the viroplasm and interacted with HRV structural protein VP2; CYPA reduced host susceptibility to HRV infection and inhibited replication of HRV by repressing the expression of viral proteins. Furthermore, we found that the increased expression of CYPA in enterocytes of small intestine correlated to the period when BALB/c mice became resistant to RV diarrhea. Together, we identified CYPA as a novel host restriction factor that confered protection against RV infection and might contribute to host susceptibility to RV diarrhea.
