Human umbilical cord-derived MSC culture: the replacement of animal sera with human cord blood plasma

Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) hold great potential for their therapeutic use in various clinical diseases. Many publications have reported on human blood-derived alternatives to animal serum for culturing mesenchymal stem cells, such as human serum, allogenic umbilical cord blood serum, and human platelet derivatives. However, it is not clear whether human umbilical cord blood plasma (UCBP), as the surplusage of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cell extraction, could be used. In this study, in order to make the best of umbilical cord blood, the human UCBP was dialyzed to replace fetal bovine serum (FBS) in the culture medium. hUC-MSCs were cultured in the new medium. Cell growth rate, specific biomarkers, and differentiation properties were detected to characterize the cell proliferation and MSC-specific properties. The hUC-MSCs cultured in such derived medium were verified with proliferation rate, cluster differentiation markers, cell cycle, as well as differentiation capabilities. Such dialyzed human UCBP is fully comparable with, if not superior to, FBS in deriving and culturing hUC-MSCs.     

Disruption of YPS1 and PEP4 genes reduces proteolytic degradation of secreted HSA/PTH in Pichia pastoris GS115

Human serum albumin (HSA) and human parathyroid hormone (1-34) [PTH (1-34)] fusion protein [HSA/PTH (1-34)] is a promising long-acting form of PTH (1-34) for osteoporosis treatment. Secretory expression of intact HSA/PTH (1-34) in Pichia pastoris GS115 was accompanied by two degradation fragments, with molecular weights around 66 kDa, in addition to the well-known ~45 kDa HSA-truncated fragment, resulting in a low yield of intact protein. In this study, two internal cleavage sites were identified in the PTH (1-34) portion of the fusion protein by Western Blot analysis. To minimize proteolytic cleavages, several protease genes including PEP4 (encoding proteinase A), PRB1 (proteinase B) and seven YPSs genes (yapsin family members) were knocked out respectively by disruption of the individual genes and the selective combinations. Reduced degradation was observed by single disruption of either PEP4 gene or YPS1 gene, and the lowest level of degradation was observed in a pep4△yps1△ double disruptant. After 72 h of induction, more than 80 % of the HSA/PTH (1-34) secreted by the pep4△yps1△ double disruptant remained intact, in comparison to only 30 % with the wild-type strain.     

体外诱导骨髓间充质干细胞向肝细胞样细胞方向分化

探讨成纤维生长因子-2(FGF-2)在体外定向诱导大鼠骨髓间充质干细胞(BM-MSCs)向肝细胞样细胞分化的作用及量化关系。体外分离培养大鼠BM-MSCs,将第3代BM-MSCs采用不同剂量的FGF-2诱导。诱导后,在显微镜下观察细胞形态学的改变;用免疫细胞化学法检测白蛋白和CK19的分泌;Shiff染色法检测糖原的分泌。诱导后BM-MSCs由梭形向多角形、卵圆形方向变化,白蛋白、CK19和糖原12 d即有阳性表达,以后随着诱导时间的延长阳性率逐渐升高。20 ng/mL FGF-2诱导比10 ng/mL FGF-2诱导细胞白蛋白、CK19和糖原的表达量均多。20 ng/mL FGF-2具有较强的诱导BM-MSCs向肝细胞样细胞分化的能力。     

全氟辛烷磺酰基化合物对剑尾鱼肝脏抗氧化物酶活性的影响

目的研究全氟辛烷磺酰基化合物(PFOS)暴露对剑尾鱼(Xiphophorus helleri Heckel)抗氧化物酶活性的影响,探讨PFOS对鱼类的致毒机理。方法使用浸润法以3.5、7.0、14.0和28.0 mg/L四个PFOS浓度为剑尾鱼染毒,定量测定了96 h内肝脏组织中的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-PX)活性及丙二醛(MDA)含量的变化。结果 PFOS暴露12 h后,除28.0 mg/L组SOD活性被显著性抑制外,其余各组与对照组均无显著性差异(P>0.05);7.0 mg/L组和14.0 mg/L组在24 h被极显著诱导(P<0.01),并且一直保持至96 h。CAT活性随PFOS浓度的升高而降低,12 h时,除3.5 mg/L组外,其余各组CAT活性被显著或极显著抑制,至24 h时,各组CAT活性有上升趋势,但48 h后,各组呈不断下降趋势持续至96 h,其CAT活性恢复到12 h水平。GSH-PX活性变化与CAT活性变化趋势相似,其中28.0 mg/L组在不同时间均被显著性抑制,并在96 h时抑制率达到最高值64.8%。MDA含量在12 h时呈小幅下降趋势,但随着暴露时间的延长,各处理组MDA含量呈连续上升趋势,并在96 h时达到最高点,诱导率分别为71.2%、70.1%和85.1%。结论结果表明,SOD的高活性是由于机体中超氧阴离子的存在,而高浓度的超氧阴离子能够灭活CAT和GSH-PX活性,因此,CAT和GSH-PX活性始终低于对照组。GSH-PX对PFOS的敏感性高于CAT。MDA含量持续升高反映出细胞组织已经遭受到氧化损伤。剑尾鱼活体的实验表明,PFOS能够诱导肝脏氧化应激反应,氧化损伤是PFOS致毒的主要途径之一。     

脓肿分枝杆菌经Toll样受体2介导的JNK/ERK信号通路诱导巨噬细胞表达肿瘤坏死因子α和白细胞介素8

为探讨脓肿分枝杆菌脓肿亚种和马赛亚种经Toll样受体2(Toll-like receptor 2,TLR2)介导的c-Jun氨基末端激酶(c-Jun N-terminal kinase,JNK)和细胞外信号调节激酶(extracellular signal-regulated kinase,ERK)诱导THP-1巨噬细胞内肿瘤坏死因子α(tumor necrosis factor α,TNF-α)和白细胞介素8(interleukin 8,IL-8)表达的相关分子机制,本研究将脓肿分枝杆菌脓肿亚种和马赛亚种感染THP-1巨噬细胞,细菌与巨噬细胞最佳感染之比为感染复数(multiplicity of infection,MOI)＝3,用荧光定量聚合酶链反应(polymerase chain reaction,PCR)检测THP-1巨噬细胞感染两细菌亚种6 h后的胞内TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA水平,以及分别阻断TLR2、JNK 和ERK信号蛋白后TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA水平的变化。结果显示,脓肿分枝杆菌脓肿亚种和马赛亚种作用于THP-1巨噬细胞6 h后,均可诱导细胞内TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA水平显著上调,差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);分别阻断TLR2、JNK和ERK信号蛋白,脓肿亚种感染THP-1巨噬细胞后胞内TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA上调水平出现明显抑制,差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);分别阻断TLR2和JNK信号蛋白,马赛亚种感染THP-1巨噬细胞后胞内TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA上调水平均出现明显抑制,差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05);而阻断ERK信号蛋白后,马赛亚种组仅见IL-8 mRNA水平明显抑制,差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05),而TNF-α mRNA水平未见明显变化,差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05)。本研究提示,脓肿分枝杆菌脓肿亚种和马赛亚种均可作用于TLR2,诱导THP-1细胞内TNF-α和IL-8 mRNA水平上调,脓肿亚种可经JNK和ERK信号蛋白诱导TNF-α mRNA上调,马赛亚种可经JNK信号蛋白诱导TNF-α mRNA上调;脓肿亚种和马赛亚种诱导IL-8 mRNA上调可能与JNK和ERK信号蛋白相关。     

Biodiesel production from high acid value waste frying oil catalyzed by superacid heteropolyacid

Transesterification of waste cooking oil with high acid value and high water contents using heteropolyacid H3PW12O40 x 6H2O (PW12) as catalyst was investigated. The hexahydrate form of PW(12) was found to be the most promising catalyst which exhibited highest ester yield 87% for transesterification of waste cooking oil and ester yield 97% for esterification of long-chain palmitic acid, respectively. The PW12 acid catalyst shows higher activity under the optimized reaction conditions compared with conventional homogeneous catalyst sulfuric acid, and can easily be separated from the products by distillation of the excess methanol and can be reused more times. The most important feature of this catalyst is that the catalytic activity is not affected by the content of free fatty acids (FFAs) and the content of water in the waste cooking oil and the transesterification can occur at a lower temperature (65 degrees C), a lower methanol oil ratio (70:1) and be finished within a shorter time. The results illustrate that PW12 acid is an excellent water-tolerant and environmentally benign acid catalyst for production of biodiesel from waste cooking oil.     

辣椒素对大鼠肠系膜下神经诱发动作电位的影响

目的:探讨辣椒素对肠系膜下神经诱发动作电位的影响。方法:对大鼠肠系膜下神经节施加不同浓度(分别为2.5、5、10g/L)的辣椒素或其载体(对照)后,在其中枢端给予能引起反应的方波刺激,记录节后神经外周端的动作电位。结果:虽然实验动物存在个体差异,且辣椒素对其神经作用的阈值也有所不同,但在大多数情况下,当辣椒素浓度为2.5～5g/L、作用3min后,即可使神经的敏感性降低;并表现出了较为明显的剂量相关性,即随着辣椒素浓度的升高,其对神经的脱敏作用也逐渐增强。结论:辣椒素对肠系膜下神经节内的交感和副交感神经均具有抑制作用。
