Evidence has shown that pre-eclampsia (PE) is associated with an increased level of catecholamines. Renalase is a catecholamine-metabolizing enzyme, which contributes to the occurrence of hypertension. In the current study, we aimed to assess the relation between two renalase gene ( RNLS) polymorphisms, including rs2576178 at the 5′-flanking region and rs10887800 at intron 6, near the exon/intron border and PE susceptibility. In this case-control study, 179 women with PE and 202 normotensive pregnant women were genotyped for RNLS rs2576178 and rs10887800 polymorphisms by the polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism method. There was no association between RNLS rs10887800 and rs2576178 polymorphisms and PE, neither in the dominant nor in the recessive model. Although there was no association between RNLS rs10887800 polymorphism and mild PE, this polymorphism was associated with 2.2-fold higher risk of severe PE in the recessive model (odds ratio [OR], 2.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.2-4.4; P = 0.01) but not in the dominant model. The RNLS rs2576178 and rs10887800 polymorphisms were not associated with PE severity. The RNLS rs10887800 and rs2576178 GG/GG combined genotypes were associated with 8.4- and 16.7-fold higher risk of PE and severe PE, respectively (OR, 8.4; 95% CI, 1-71.1; P = 0.048 and OR, 16.7; 95% CI, 1.6-167; P = 0.018). Also, the G-G haplotype was associated with 1.7-fold risk of PE and mild PE (OR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.1-2.4; P = 0.009 and OR, 1.7; 95% CI, 1.1-2.5; P = 0.02). The RNLS rs10887800 polymorphism was associated with severe PE. The RNLS rs10887800 and rs2576178 GG/GG combined genotypes and G-G haplotype were associated with higher risk of PE. 相似文献

Growth of Acidothermus cellulolyticus in solid‐state fermentation and its required growth conditions were investigated in this study. Extraction of switchgrass was required for growth. Under the experimental conditions, extraction ratio had the most significant effect on the growth of A. cellulolyticus. Heat treatment (in the form of autoclaving) of switchgrass did not have a significant effect on the growth rate; however, longer heat treatment times had a negative effect on the total growth. Moisture content adjustment had no effect on the release of inhibitors into extracts. Our results showed that leaching at a minimum 40:1 (gram water: gram dry biomass) removed inhibitory compound(s) from switchgrass. Upon extraction A. cellulolyticus colonized switchgrass in solid fermentation without exogenous addition of carbon and nitrogen sources. It is the first demonstration of growth of A. cellulolyticus in solid fermentation. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol. Prog., 2010 相似文献

Background
Juvenile systemic lupus erythematosus (JSLE) is a polygenic, autoimmune disorder of unknown origin. As proinflammatory cytokines, including interleukin-6 (IL-6) and the interleukin-1 (IL-1) family, seem to contribute to the pathogenesis of JSLE, this investigation was performed to assess the associations of particular single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of IL-6 and IL-1 genes in a case-control study.Methods
Fifty nine JSLE cases were recruited for this study as the patient group, and were compared against 140 healthy, unrelated, control subjects. Using the polymerase chain reaction with the sequence-specific primer method, genotyping was carried out for the IL-6 gene at positions ?174 and nt565, as well as the IL-1α gene at position ?889, the IL-1β gene at positions ?511 and +3962, the interleukin-1 receptor (IL-1R) gene at position Pst-I 1970, and the interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) gene at position Mspa-I 11100.Results
Results of the analyzed data revealed a remarkable, positive association for the promoter sequence of the IL-1β gene at position ?511 for T/T in the patient group compared with healthy controls (P value, 0.03). Furthermore, a significant negative association was found between the T/C genotype at the same position on the IL-1β gene in juvenile SLE (P value, 0.03).Conclusions
cytokine gene polymorphisms might play a role in the pathophysiology of JSLE. Particular IL-1 gene variants could affect individual susceptibility to JSLE.125.

The Iranian cave barb (Iranocypris typhlops Bruun & Kaiser, 1944) is a rare and endemic species of the family Cyprinidae known from a single locality in the Zagros Mountains, western Iran. This species is “Vulnerable” according to the IUCN Red List and is one of the top four threatened freshwater fish species in Iran. Yet, the taxonomic position of I. typhlops is uncertain. We examined phylogenetic relationships of this species with other species of the family Cyprinidae based on the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene. Our results show that I. typhlops is monophyletic and is sister taxon of a cluster formed by Garra rufa (Heckel, 1843) and Garra barreimiae (Fowler & Steinitz, 1956) within a clade that includes other species of the genus Garra. Based on previous molecular and morphological studies, as well as our new results, we recommend that I. typhlops should be transferred to the genus Garra Hamilton, 1822. 相似文献

A halophilic archaeon, Halorubrum sp. strain Ha25, produced extracellular halophilic organic solvent-tolerant amylopullulanase. The maximum enzyme production was at high salt concentration, 3–4 M NaCl. Optimum pH and temperature for enzyme production were 7.0 and 40 °C, respectively. Molecular mass of purified enzyme was estimated to be about 140 kDa by SDS–PAGE. This enzyme was active on pullulan and starch as substrates. The apparent K m for the enzyme activity on pullulan was 4 mg/ml and for soluble starch was 1.8 mg/ml. Optimum temperature for amylolytic and pullulytic activities was 50 °C. Optimum pH for amylolytic activity was 7 and for pullulytic activity was 7.5. This enzyme was active over a wide range of concentrations (0–4.5 M) of NaCl. The effect of organic solvents on the enzyme activities showed that this enzyme was more stable in the presence of non-polar organic solvents than polar solvents. This study is the first report on amylopullulanase production in halophilic bacteria and archaea. 相似文献

New insights for the systematic and evolution of the wild sheep are provided by molecular phylogenies inferred from Maximum parsimony, Bayesian, Maximum likelihood, and Neighbor-Joining methods. The phylogeny of the wild sheep was based on cytochrome b sequences of 290 samples representative of most of the sub-species described in the genus Ovis. The result was confirmed by a combined tree based on cytochrome b and nuclear sequences for 79 Ovis samples representative of the robust clades established with mitochondrial data. Urial and mouflon, which are either considered as a single or two separate species, form two monophyletic groups (O. orientalis and O. vignei). Their hybrids appear in one or the other group, independently from their geographic origin. The European mouflon O. musimon is clearly in the O. orientalis clade. The others species, O. dalli, O. canadensis, O. nivicola, and O. ammon are monophyletic. The results support an Asiatic origin of the genus Ovis, followed by a migration to North America through North-Eastern Asia and the Bering Strait and a diversification of the genus in Eurasia less than 3 million years ago. Our results show that the evolution of the genus Ovis is a striking example of successive speciation events occurring along the migration routes propagating from the ancestral area. 相似文献

The process of prion conversion is not yet well understood at the molecular level. The regions critical for the conformational change of PrP remain mostly debated and the extent of sequence change acceptable for prion conversion is poorly documented. To achieve progress on these issues, we applied a reverse genetic approach using the Rov cell system. This allowed us to test the susceptibility of a number of insertion mutants to conversion into prion in the absence of wild-type PrP molecules. We were able to propagate several prions with 8 to 16 extra amino acids, including a polyglycine stretch and His or FLAG tags, inserted in the middle of the protease-resistant fragment. These results demonstrate the possibility to increase the length of the loop between helices H2 and H3 up to 4-fold, without preventing prion replication. They also indicate that this loop probably remains unstructured in PrP(Sc). We also showed that bona fide prions can be produced following insertion of octapeptides in the two C-terminal turns of H2. These insertions do not interfere with the overall fold of the H2-H3 domain indicating that the highly conserved sequence of the terminal part of H2 is not critical for the conversion. Altogether these data showed that the amplitude of modifications acceptable for prion conversion in the core of the globular domain of PrP is much greater than one might have assumed. These observations should help to refine structural models of PrP(Sc) and elucidate the conformational changes underlying prions generation. 相似文献
