Diversity of prokaryotes associated with soils around coal-fire gas vents in MaNasi county of Xinjiang, China

Bacterial and archaeal diversity in surface soils of three coal-fire vents was investigated by T-RFLP analysis and clone libraries of 16S rRNA genes. Soil analysis showed that underground coal fires significantly influenced soil pH, moisture and NO₃ ^? content but had little effect on other elements, organic matter and available nutrients. Hierarchical cluster analysis showed that bacterial community patterns in the soils were very similar, but abundance varied with geographic distance. A clone library from one soil showed that the bacterial community was mainly composed of Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Acidobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Planctomycetes, Actinobacteria, and unidentified groups. Of these, Firmicutes was the most abundant, accounting for 71.4 % of the clones, and was mainly represented by the genera Bacillus and Paenibacillus. Archaeal phylotypes were closely related to uncultivated species of the phyla Crenarchaeota (97.9 % of clones) and Thaumarchaeota (2.1 %). About 28 % of archaeal phylotypes were associated with ammonia oxidization, especially phylotypes that were highly related to a novel, ammonia-oxidizing isolate from the phylum Thaumarchaeota. These results suggested that microbial communities in the soils were diverse and might contain a large number of novel cultivable species with the potential to assimilate materials by heterotrophic metabolism at high temperature.     

Synthesis and in vitro antibacterial activity of quinolone/naphthyridone derivatives containing 3-alkoxyimino-4-(methyl)aminopiperidine scaffolds

We report herein the synthesis of a series of 7-[3-alkoxyimino-4-(methyl)aminopiperidin-1-yl]quinolone/naphthyridone derivatives. In vitro antibacterial activity of these derivatives was evaluated against representative strains, and compared with ciprofloxacin (CPFX), levofloxacin (LVFX) and gemifloxacin (GMFX). The results reveal that all of the target compounds 19a–c and 20 have considerable Gram-positive activity, although they are generally less active than the reference drugs against the Gram-negative strains with some exceptions. Especially, novel compounds 19a2, 19a4 and 19a5 were found to show strong antibacterial activity (MICs: <0.008–0.5 μg/mL) against all of the tested 15 Gram-positive strains including MRSA, LVFX- and GMFX-resistant MRSE, and CPFX-, LVFX- and GMFX-resistant MSSA.     

Synthesis and antitumor-evaluation of 1,3-selenazole-containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives

A series of novel 1,3-selenazole-containing 1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives bearing Schiff base moieties were synthesized and evaluated for their in vitro antiproliferative activities against human breast cancer cell MCF-7 and mouse lymphocyte leukemia cell L1210 by CCK-8 assay. The majority of the compounds showed better activity against MCF-7 cell, compared with lead compound PCS. In particular, compound 6c was the most potent compound with IC₅₀ value of 4.02 μM.     

Mate sampling and choosiness in the sand goby

To date, mate choice studies have mostly focused on establishing which mates are chosen or how the choices are performed. Here, we combined these two approaches by empirically testing how latency to mate is affected by various search costs, variation in mate quality and female quality in the sand goby (Pomatoschistus minutus). Our results show that females adjust their mating behaviour according to the costs and benefits of the choice situation. Specifically, they mated sooner when access to males was delayed and when the presence of other females presented a mate sampling cost. We also found a positive link between size variation among potential mating partners and spawning delay in some (but not all) experimental conditions. By contrast, we did not find the number of available males or the females'' own body size (‘quality’) to affect mating latency. Finally, female mating behaviour varied significantly between years. These findings are notable for demonstrating that (i) mate sampling time is particularly sensitive to costs and, to a lesser degree, to variation among mate candidates, (ii) females'' mating behaviour is sensitive to qualitative rather than to quantitative variation in their environment, and (iii) a snapshot view may describe mate sampling behaviour unreliably.

高脂饮食对小鼠附睾内质网应激的影响及褪黑素的干预作用

目的探讨内质网应激在高脂饮食引起的ApoE基因敲除小鼠附睾损伤中的作用及褪黑素（MT）的干预机制。方法将12只ApoE基因敲除的C57BL／6J雄性小鼠随机分为高脂饮食组及MT处理组。高脂饮食组为ApoE基因敲除小鼠,给予高脂饮食;MT处理组给予高脂饲养外,并MT灌胃。以6只野生型C57BL／6J雄性小鼠作为对照组,给予普通饮食。饲养12w后,取附睾组织制片,HE染色观察附睾的病理学形态,免疫组化检测GRP78和CHOP的表达。结果HE染色显示,高脂饮食组小鼠,附睾上皮细胞形态结构不清,细胞萎缩。对照组和褪黑素处理组小鼠附睾上皮细胞形态结构完整,细胞排列整齐。免疫组化显示高脂饮食组小鼠附睾中GRP78、CHOP表达增强（P〈0．01）。MT处理组和高脂饮食组相比,附睾中GRP78、CHOP表达下调（P〈0．01）。结论内质网应激参与高脂饮食导致的附睾损伤;MT可能通过抑制附睾内质网应激,减轻高脂饮食对小鼠附睾的损伤。
