Herein, an ultrasensitive electrochemical aptasensor for quantitative detection of bisphenol A (BPA) was fabricated based on a novel signal amplification strategy. This aptasensor was developed by electrodeposition of gold-platinum nanoparticles (Au-PtNPs) on glassy carbon (GC) electrode modified with acid-oxidized carbon nanotubes (CNTs-COOH). In this protocol, acriflavine (ACF) was covalently immobilized at the surface of glassy carbon electrode modified with Au-PtNPs/CNTs-COOH nanocomposite. Attachment of BPA-aptamer at the surface of modified electrode was performed through the formation of phosphoramidate bonds between the amino group of ACF and phosphate group of the aptamer at 5′end. By interaction of BPA with the aptamer, the conformational of aptamer was changed which lead to retarding the interfacial electron transfer of ACF as a probe. Sensitive quantitative detection of BPA was carried out by monitoring the decrease of differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) responses of ACF peak current with increasing the BPA concentration. The resultant aptasensor exhibited good specificity, stability and reproducibility, indicating that the present strategy was promising for broad potential application. 相似文献

A three-dimensional polymeric KITlI heterometallic compound [K2Tl(μ-C4H4O4)(μ-NO3)]n, with mixes succinate and nitrate ligands, has been synthesized and characterized. Its single-crystal X-ray structure shows two types of K+-ions with coordination numbers of seven and eight and one Tl+-ion with a coordination number of five. However, the arrangement of O-atoms for TlI suggests a gap or hole in the coordination geometry around this atom. This ‘hole’ is possibly occupied by a stereochemically ‘active’ electron lone pair of thallium atoms. Two hydrogen atoms of succinate situated 3.26 Å above the proposed site on the lone pair of TlI is oriented in such a way that it might be thought to be forming weak Tl-Lp?H-C hydrogen bond or agostic interactions, thus attaining of environment TlO5H2. 相似文献

Contractile dysfunction and diminished response to β-adrenergic agonists are characteristics for failing hearts. Chemically donated nitroxyl (HNO) improves contractility in failing hearts and thus may have therapeutic potential. Yet, there is a need for pharmacologically suitable donors. In this study we tested whether the pure and long acting HNO donor, 1-nitrosocyclohexyl acetate (NCA), affects contractile force in normal and pathological ventricular myocytes (VMs) as well as in isolated hearts. VMs were isolated from mice either subjected to isoprenaline-infusion (ISO; 30 μg/g per day) or to vehicle (0.9% NaCl) for 5 days. Sarcomere shortening and Ca2+ transients were simultaneously measured using the IonOptix system. Force of contraction of isolated hearts was measured by a Langendorff-perfusion system. NCA increased peak sarcomere shortening by + 40-200% in a concentration-dependent manner (EC50 ∼55 μM). Efficacy and potency did not differ between normal and chronic ISO VMs, despite the fact that the latter displayed a markedly diminished inotropic response to acute β-adrenergic stimulation with ISO (1 μM). NCA (60 μM) increased peak sarcomere shortening and Ca2+ transient amplitude by ∼200% and ∼120%, respectively, suggesting effects on both myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ cycling. Importantly, NCA did not affect diastolic Ca2+ or SR Ca2+ content, as assessed by rapid caffeine application. NCA (45 μM) increased force of contraction by 30% in isolated hearts. In conclusion, NCA increased contractile force in normal and β-adrenergically desensitized VMs as well as in isolated mouse hearts. This profile warrants further investigations of this HNO donor in the context of heart failure. 相似文献

In addition to its role as the primary vector for dengue viruses, Aedes aegypti has a long history as a genetic model organism for other bloodfeeding mosquitoes, due to its ease of colonization, maintenance and reproductive productivity. Though its genome has been sequenced, functional characterization of many Ae. aegypti genes, pathways and behaviors has been slow. TALE nucleases (TALENs) have been used with great success in a number of organisms to generate site-specific DNA lesions. We evaluated the ability of a TALEN pair to target the Ae. aegypti kmo gene, whose protein product is essential in the production of eye pigmentation. Following injection into pre-blastoderm embryos, 20–40% of fertile survivors produced kmo alleles that failed to complement an existing khw mutation. Most of these individuals produced more than 20% white-eyed progeny, with some producing up to 75%. Mutant alleles were associated with lesions of 1–7 bp specifically at the selected target site. White-eyed individuals could also be recovered following a blind intercross of G1 progeny, yielding several new white-eyed strains in the genetic background of the sequenced Liverpool strain. We conclude that TALENs are highly active in the Ae. aegypti germline, and have the potential to transform how reverse genetic experiments are performed in this important disease vector. 相似文献

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-D binds to VEGF receptors (VEGFR) VEGFR2/KDR and VEGFR3/Flt4, but the signaling mechanisms mediating its biological activities in endothelial cells are poorly understood. Here we investigated the mechanism of action of VEGF-D, and we compared the signaling pathways and biological responses induced by VEGF-D and VEGF-A in endothelial cells. VEGF-D induced KDR and phospholipase C-gamma tyrosine phosphorylation more slowly and less effectively than VEGF-A at early times but had a more sustained effect and was as effective as VEGF-A after 60 min. VEGF-D activated extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2 with similar efficacy but slower kinetics compared with VEGF-A, and this effect was blocked by inhibitors of protein kinase C and mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase. In contrast to VEGF-A, VEGF-D weakly stimulated prostacyclin production and gene expression, had little effect on cell proliferation, and stimulated a smaller and more transient increase in intracellular [Ca(2+)]. VEGF-D induced strong but more transient phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-mediated Akt activation and increased PI3K-dependent endothelial nitric-oxide synthase phosphorylation and cell survival more weakly. VEGF-D stimulated chemotaxis via a PI3K/Akt- and endothelial nitric-oxide synthase-dependent pathway, enhanced protein kinase C- and PI3K-dependent endothelial tubulogenesis, and stimulated angiogenesis in a mouse sponge implant model less effectively than VEGF-A. VEGF-D-induced signaling and biological effects were blocked by the KDR inhibitor SU5614. The finding that differential KDR activation by VEGF-A and VEGF-D has distinct consequences for endothelial signaling and function has important implications for understanding how multiple ligands for the same VEGF receptors can generate ligand-specific biological responses. 相似文献

Introduction
Cancer and chemotherapy-induced malnutrition increase death, reduce the response to treatment, and increase multiple kinds of side effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of Mediterranean-neutropenic diet on the nutritional status of acute myeloid leukemia patients under chemotherapy.Materials and Methods
50 patients were divided into two groups by a random allocation scheme: the Mediterranean-neutropenic diet (n = 25) and the neutropenic diet group (n = 25). The intervention was implemented during a one month period. The nutritional status was evaluated based on PG-SGA. Serum albumin levels and dietary intake were also measured.Results
After the intervention, the mean serum albumin level in the intervention group was significantly higher than the beginning of the study (p = 0.09) and in comparison with the control group (p = 0.01). Also, the mean serum albumin level in the control group significantly decreased at the end of the study compared to the beginning of the study (p = 0.03). After intervention, the nutritional status of the patients in the intervention group was significantly improved compared to the control group.Conclusion
In general, based on the results of this study, the Mediterranean neutropenic diet improves nutritional status during chemotherapy by increasing food intake, preventing weight loss and increasing serum albumin levels109.

The ectoparasitoid wasp, Habrobracon hebetor Say (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) is a valuable biocontrol agent attacking larval stages of many lepidopteran pests including Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae). The possibility of combined application of this parasitoid wasp with other biological control agents and chemical insecticides is necessary for the success of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programme. One of the most important behaviours of a parasitoid refers to the number of hosts attacked by per parasitoid as a function of host density. In this research, the single and joint effects of the insecticide, Proteus® and the entomopathogenic fungus, Metarhizium anisopliae sensu lato (Metsch.) Sorokin (Hypocreales: Clavicipitaceae) (isolate M14) were studied on the functional response of H. hebetor. Newly mated females (<24?h) from treated pupae of H. hebetor were used to study the functional response of this parasitoid wasp to different densities of H. armigera larvae. A type II functional response was observed in all treatments. The results revealed that control and Proteus® treatments developed the lowest (0.5599?±?0.0373?h) and the highest (0.5709?±?0.0443?h) handling time, respectively. The most and the least values of attack rate were observed in control (0.0996?±?0.0164?h?1) and Proteus® (0.0776?±?0.0119?h?1) treatments, respectively. The maximum theoretical parasitism rate (T/Th) was estimated to be 42.86 for female control wasps. After conducting field experiments on functional response along with life table parameters, M. anisopliae sensu lato (isolate M14) may be used as a compatible biocontrol agent with H. hebetor in IPM programmes of H. armigera. 相似文献
