Characterization of glycerol dehydratase expressed by fusing its α- and β-subunits

The gdh and gdhr genes, encoding B₁₂-dependent glycerol dehydratase (GDH) and glycerol dehydratase reactivase (GDHR), respectively, in Klebsiella pneumoniae, were cloned and expressed in E. coli. Part of the β-subunit was lost during GDH purification when co-expressing α, β and γ subunit. This was overcome by fusing the β-subunit to α- or γ-subunit with/without the insertion of a linker peptide between the fusion moieties. The kinetic properties of the fusion enzymes were characterized and compared with wild type enzyme. The results demonstrated that the fusion protein GDHALB/C, constructed by linking the N-terminal of β-subunit to the C-terminal of α subunit through a (Gly₄Ser)₄ linker peptide, had the greatest catalytic activity. Similar to the wild-type enzyme, GDHALB/C underwent mechanism-based inactivation by glycerol during catalysis and could be reactivated by GDHR.

Quality,bioactivity study,and preclinical acute toxicity,safety pharmacology evaluation of PEGylated recombinant human endostatin (M2ES)

Endostar, a potent endogenous antiangiogenic factor, is wildly used in clinics. However, it was easily degraded by enzymes and rapidly cleared by the kidneys. To overcome these shortcomings, PEGylated recombinant human endostatin was developed. In this study, the purity of M₂ES was evaluated by silver stain and reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography. Ultraviolet spectrum was used to examine the structural of M₂ES and endostar. The bioactivity and antitumor efficacy of M₂ES were evaluated using an in vitro endothelial cell migration model and athymic nude mouse xenograft model of a heterogeneous lung adenocarcinoma, respectively. A preclinical study was performed to evaluate the acute toxicity and safety pharmacology in rhesus monkeys. The purity of M₂ES was more than 98%; PEG modification has no effect on endostatin structure. Compared with the control group, M₂ES dramatically retards endothelial cell migration and tumor growth. After intravenous (IV) infusions of M₂ES at a dose level of three and 75 mg/kg in rhesus monkeys, there was no observable serious adverse event in both acute toxicity and safety pharmacology study. On the basis of the quality and bioactivity study data of M₂ES and the absence of serious side effect in rhesus monkeys, M₂ES was authorized to initiate a phase I clinical trial.

脂联素调节糖脂代谢相关信号通路的研究进展

脂联素是一种主要由脂肪组织分泌的脂肪细胞因子,具有调节糖脂代谢、增强胰岛素敏感性、抗炎和抗动脉粥样硬化等多种作用。在脂联素介导的信号通路中,脂联素首先与脂联素受体(AdipoR)位于膜外的羧基端结合,再通过AdipoR膜内的氨基端与信号接头蛋白结合,进而激活下游的多条信号通路,其中腺苷酸活化蛋白激酶(AMPK)是脂联素信号通路中的关键分子,活化的AMPK可以使其下游的乙酰辅酶A羧化酶(ACC)、p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶(p38 MAPK)、磷脂酰肌醇3激酶(PI3K)等多种胞质信号分子磷酸化,介导细胞能量代谢。本文重点综述了脂联素通过AMPK调节糖脂代谢的信号通路的研究进展。     

Urban development and sustainability challenges chronicled by a century of construction material flows and stocks in Tiexi,China

Construction materials are considerable forces of global environmental impacts, but their dynamics vis‐à‐vis urban development are poorly documented, in part because their long lifespans require elusive and sometimes nonexistent decade‐long high‐resolution data. This study analyzes the construction material flow and stock trends that shaped and were shaped by the development, decline, and renewal of the Tiexi district of Shenyang, a microcosm of China's urban transformations since the early 20th century. Chronicling building‐by‐building the material flows and stock accumulations involved in the buildup of this area, we shed light on the physical resource context of its socioeconomic history. We find that 42 million tonnes of construction materials were needed to develop the Tiexi district from 1910 to 2018, and 18 million tonnes of material outflows were generated by end‐of‐life building demolition. However, over 55% of inflows and 93% of outflows occurred since 2002 during a complete redevelopment of the district. Only small portions of end‐of‐life materials could have been reused or recycled because of temporal and typological mismatches of supply and demand and technical limitations. Our analysis reveals a dramatic decrease in median building lifetimes to as low as 6 years in the early 21st century. These findings contribute to the discussion of long‐term environmental efficiency and sustainability of societal development through construction and reflect on the challenges of urban renewal processes not only in China but also in other developing and developed countries that lost (or may lose) their traditional economic base and restructure their urban forms.
