Background
Insulin resistance and diabetes are associated with increased oxidative stress and impairment of cellular defence systems. Our purpose was to investigate the interaction between glucose metabolism, antioxidative capacity and heat shock protein (HSP) defence in different skeletal muscle phenotypes among middle-aged obese subjects during a long-term exercise and dietary intervention. As a sub-study of the Finnish Diabetes Prevention Study (DPS), 22 persons with impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) taking part in the intervention volunteered to give samples from the vastus lateralis muscle. Subjects were divided into two sub-groups (IGTslow and IGTfast) on the basis of their baseline myosin heavy chain profile. Glucose metabolism, oxidative stress and HSP expressions were measured before and after the 2-year intervention.Results
Exercise training, combined with dietary counselling, increased the expression of mitochondrial chaperones HSP60 and glucose-regulated protein 75 (GRP75) in the vastus lateralis muscle in the IGTslow group and that of HSP60 in the IGTfast group. In cytoplasmic chaperones HSP72 or HSP90 no changes took place. In the IGTslow group, a significant positive correlation between the increased muscle content of HSP60 and the oxygen radical absorbing capacity values and, in the IGTfast group, between the improved VO2max value and the increased protein expression of GRP75 were found. Serum uric acid concentrations decreased in both sub-groups and serum protein carbonyl concentrations decreased in the IGTfast group.Conclusion
The 2-year intervention up-regulated mitochondrial HSP expressions in middle-aged subjects with impaired glucose tolerance. These improvements, however, were not correlated directly with enhanced glucose tolerance. 相似文献52.
Background
The NCBI taxonomy provides one of the most powerful ways to navigate sequence data bases but currently users are forced to formulate queries according to a single taxonomic classification. Given that there is not universal agreement on the classification of organisms, providing a single classification places constraints on the questions biologists can ask. However, maintaining multiple classifications is burdensome in the face of a constantly growing NCBI classification. 相似文献53.
Partial 18S rRNA sequences of five chelicerate arthropods plus a
crustacean, myriapod, insect, chordate, echinoderm, annelid, and
platyhelminth were compared. The sequence data were used to infer phylogeny
by using a maximum-parsimony method, an evolutionary-distance method, and
the evolutionary-parsimony method. The phylogenetic inferences generated by
maximum-parsimony and distance methods support both monophyly of the
Arthropoda and monophyly of the Chelicerata within the Arthropoda. These
results are congruent with phylogenies based on rigorous cladistic analyses
of morphological characters. Results support the inclusion of the
Arthropoda within a spiralian or protostome coelomate clade that is the
sister group of a deuterostome clade, refuting the hypothesis that the
arthropods represent the "primitive" sister group of a protostome coelomate
clade. Bootstrap analyses and consideration of all trees within 1% of the
length of the most parsimonious tree suggest that relationships between the
nonchelicerate arthropods and relationships within the chelicerate clade
cannot be reliably inferred with the partial 18S rRNA sequence data. With
the evolutionary-parsimony method, support for monophyly of the Arthropoda
is found in the majority of the combinations analyzed if the coelomates are
used as "outgroups." Monophyly of the Chelicerata is supported in most
combinations assessed. Our analyses also indicate that the
evolutionary-parsimony method, like distance and parsimony, may be biased
by taxa with long branches. We suggest that a previous study's inference of
the Arthropoda as paraphyletic may be the result of (a) having two few
arthropod taxa available for analysis and (b) including long-branched taxa.

Loss of meiosis in Aspergillus 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
If strictly mitotic asexual fungi lack recombination, the conventional view
predicts that they are recent derivatives from older meiotic lineages. We
tested this by inferring phylogenetic relationships among closely related
meiotic and strictly mitotic taxa with Aspergillus conidial (mitotic)
states. Phylogenies were constructed by using DNA sequences from the
mitochondrial small ribosomal subunit, the nuclear ribosomal internal
transcribed spacers, and the nuclear 5.8S ribosomal gene. Over 920 bp of
sequence was analyzed for each taxon. Phylogenetic analysis of both the
mitochondrial and nuclear data sets showed at least four clades that
possess both meiotic and strictly mitotic taxa. These results support the
hypothesis that strictly mitotic lineages arise frequently from more
ancient meiotic lineages with Aspergillus conidial states. Many of the
strictly mitotic species examined retained characters that may be vestiges
of a meiotic state, including the production of sclerotia, sclerotium-like
structures, and hulle cells.

Long-term ethanol consumption at low to moderate levels exerts cardioprotective effects in the setting of ischemia and reperfusion (I/R). The aims of this study were to determine whether 1) a single orally administered dose of ethanol [ethanol preconditioning (EtOH-PC)] would induce a biphasic temporal pattern of protection (early and late phases) against the inflammatory responses to I/R and 2) adenosine and nitric oxide (NO) act as initiators of the late phase of protection. Ethanol was administered as a bolus to C57BL/6 mice at a dose that achieved a peak plasma concentration of ~45 mg/dl 30 min after gavage and returned to control levels within 60 min of alcohol ingestion. The superior mesenteric artery was occluded for 45 min followed by 60 min of reperfusion beginning 10 min or 1, 2, 3, 4, or 24 h after ethanol ingestion, and the numbers of fluorescently labeled rolling and firmly adherent (stationary) leukocytes in single postcapillary venules of the small intestine were quantified using intravital microscopic approaches. I/R induced marked increases in leukocyte rolling and adhesion, effects that were attenuated by EtOH-PC 2-3 h before I/R (early phase), absent when assessed after 10 min, 1 h, and 4 h of ethanol ingestion, with an even more powerful late phase of protection reemerging when I/R was induced 24 h later. The anti-inflammatory effects of late EtOH-PC were abolished by treatment with adenosine deaminase, an adenosine A(2) (but not A(1)) receptor antagonist, or a NO synthase (NOS) inhibitor during the period of EtOH-PC. Preconditioning with an adenosine A(2) (but not an A(1)) receptor agonist in lieu of ethanol 24 h before I/R mimicked the protective actions of late phase EtOH-PC. Like EtOH-PC, the effect of preconditioning with an adenosine A(2) receptor agonist was abrogated by coincident NOS inhibition. These findings suggest that EtOH-PC induces a biphasic temporal pattern of protection against the proinflammatory effects of I/R. In addition, our observations are consistent with the hypothesis that the late phase of EtOH-PC is triggered by NO formed secondary to adenosine A(2) receptor-dependent activation of NOS during the period of ethanol exposure. 相似文献

The aim of the present study was to analyse the usefulness of the 6-20 rating of perceived exertion (RPE) scale for prescribing and self-regulating high-intensity interval training (HIT) in young individuals. Eight healthy young subjects (age = 27.5±6.7 years) performed maximal graded exercise testing to determine their maximal and reserve heart rate (HR). Subjects then performed two HIT sessions (20 min on a treadmill) prescribed and regulated by their HR (HR: 1 min at 50% alternated with 1 min at 85% of reserve HR) or RPE (RPE: 1 minute at the 9-11 level [very light-fairly light] alternated with 1 minute at the 15-17 level [hard-very hard]) in random order. HR response and walking/running speed during the 20 min of exercise were compared between sessions. No significant difference between sessions was observed in HR during low- (HR: 135±15 bpm; RPE: 138±20 bpm) and high-intensity intervals (HR: 168±15 bpm; RPE: 170±18 bpm). Walking/running speed during low- (HR: 5.7±1.2 km · h−1; RPE: 5.7±1.3 km · h−1) and high-intensity intervals (HR: 7.8±1.9 km · h−1; RPE: 8.2±1.7 km · h−1) was also not different between sessions. No significant differences were observed in HR response and walking/running speed between HIT sessions prescribed and regulated by HR or RPE. This finding suggests that the 6-20 RPE scale may be a useful tool for prescribing and self-regulating HIT in young subjects. 相似文献
