过表达miR-191抑制猪ADSCs向脂肪细胞分化

在脂肪组织发育过程中存在许多差异表达的microRNAs（miRNAs）,而 miR-191 是从实验室前期Solexa测序结果中筛选出的差异表达miRNAs之一.本研究对不同物种miR-191的成熟及前体序列进行同源性分析,并检测其在猪不同发育阶段各组织中的表达情况,发现miR-191的成熟及前体序列在不同物种间都非常保守,通过real-time qPCR检测发现,miR=191在猪脂肪组织不同发育阶段呈高丰度差异表达,其与Solexa测序结果一致.为了更好地研究miR-191在脂肪细胞分化过程中的功能,通过基因克隆的方法,利用Ad-Easy体系,构建过表达miR 191的腺病毒载体,转染 293A细胞,成功包装出重组 miR-191腺病毒并能高效侵染猪脂肪基质细胞（adipose derived stromal cells, ADSCs）.通过real time qPCR检测表明,感染重组 miR-191 腺病毒后的ADSCs能大量表达miR-191|油红O染色可以观察到,过表达miR=191的猪ADSCs在诱导分化后与对照组相比,脂滴明显减少. 进一步研究发现,miR-191过表达的猪ADSCs中,SREBP-1C（sterol regulatory element binding protein=1C）和LPL（lipoprotein lipase）的mRNA水平显著降低,脂解关键基因HSL（hormone sensitive lipase）和ATGL（adipose triglyceride lipase）mRNA水平显著升高. 同时,Western印迹结果显示,过表达miR-191的猪ADSCs在诱导分化过程中,PPARγ（peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ）、C/EBPα（CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α）和A-FABP（adipocyte fatty acid binding protein）的蛋白表达水平显著下调. 实验表明,过表达miR-191抑制了猪ADSCs的分化过程. 这为深入研究miR-191在猪ADSCs分化过程中的调控机制奠定基础.     

黄芪甲苷Ⅳ通过影响β-actin对内皮型一氧化氮合酶的调节作用

目的：研究黄芪甲苷Ⅳ（AS-Ⅳ）对体外培养脐静脉内皮细胞中内皮型一氧化氮合酶（eNOS）的调节作用及可能的机制。方法：培养人脐静脉内皮细胞系EA-Hy926,用AS-Ⅳ进行干预,同时给予或不给予骨架蛋白β—actin聚合稳定剂phalloidin,用免疫共沉淀方法检测eNOS与单体8-actin结合状态的变化,用L-3H．精氨酸转化为L-SH-瓜氨酸的同位素法测定eNOS活性,I^125环-磷酸鸟苷（cGMP）放射免疫法检测细胞内cGMP水平,Westernblotting方法检测细胞中eNOS和蛋白激酶B（Akt）磷酸化水平,总蛋白水平。结果：（1）AS-IV作用10min后,细胞内单体β—actin与eNOS的结合明显增加（P〈0．05或P〈0．01）,预先给予phalloidin显著抑制了AS．IV引起的两者结合的增加（P〈0．01）。②AS—IV明显增加了eNOS活性（P〈0．05）、cGMP含量（P〈0．01）、eNOSSer-1177磷酸化水平（P〈0．01）、AktSer-473磷酸化水平（P〈0．001）,预先给予phalloidin明显降低了AS—IV引起的eNOS活性（P〈0．05）、cGMP含量（P〈0．01）和磷酸化水平的增加（P〈0．01）,但对Akt的磷酸化没有影响。结论：单体β—actin与eNOS的结合在AS-IV激活eNOS的过程中起着不可或缺作用,其主要是通过促进Akt对eNOSSer—1177的磷酸化来实现的。

对灵芝属G.lucidum,G.tsugae,G.oerstedii,G.resinaceum,G.subamboinens5个不同种用同一条件进行了液体发酵培养、多糖提取、理化性质及免疫活性的分析。结果表明,5种灵芝的菌丝体多糖得率相差较大,以G.oerstedii最高,但各多糖提取物分子量分布相似,单糖组成均以葡萄糖为主,并含半乳糖、甘露糖、盐酸氨基葡萄糖、岩藻糖。5种多糖提取物均能显著增强小鼠巨噬细胞Raw264.7吞噬作用、释放NO,但以G.subamboinens菌丝体多糖提取物的活性最强。这些多糖提取物还均能促进小鼠脾细胞的增殖,并对ConA诱导的淋巴细胞增殖有抑制作用。研究表明灵芝属内其他3个物种的菌丝体多糖提取物理化特征与G.lucidum和G.tsugae接近,并同样具有免疫调节作用。     

Extremely low levels of genetic diversity in the terrestrial orchid Epipactis thunbergii (Orchidaceae) in South Korea: implications for conservation

Levels of allozyme variation, population genetic structure, and fine-scale genetic structure (FSGS) of the rare, both sexually and clonally reproducing terrestrial orchid Epipactis thunbergii were examined for eight ( N  = 734) populations in a 20 × 20-km area in South Korea. Twenty-three putative allozyme loci resolved from 15 enzyme systems were used. Extremely low levels of allozyme variation were found within populations: the mean frequency of polymorphic loci was 3.8% [isocitrate dehydrogenase ( Idh-2 ) with two alleles was polymorphic across populations], the mean number of alleles per locus was 1.04, and the mean expected heterozygosity was 0.013. The overall fixation index was not significantly different from zero ( F _IS = 0.069), although the species is self-compatible. However, a significantly high degree of population differentiation was found between populations at Idh-2 ( F _ST = 0.388) in the studied area. Furthermore, spatial autocorrelation analyses revealed a significant FSGS (up to 3 m) within populations. These observations suggest that the main explanatory factors for the extremely low levels of genetic diversity and the shaping of the population genetic structure of E. thunbergii are genetic drift as a result of a small effective population size, a restricted gene flow, and the isolation of populations. Considering the current genetic structure of E. thunbergii , three guidelines are suggested for the development of conservation strategies for the species in South Korea: (1) protection of habitats of standing populations; (2) prohibition by law of any collection of E. thunbergii ; and (3) protection of nearby pollinator populations, given the fact that fruit set in natural habitats is very low.  © 2007 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society , 2007, 155 , 161–169.

Structural analogues of reactive intermediates as inhibitors of glucosamine-6-phosphate synthase and phosphoglucose isomerase

The active centers of phosphoglucose isomerase (PGI) and the hexose phosphate isomerase domain (HPI) of glucosamine-6-P (GlcN-6-P) synthase demonstrate apparent similarity in spatial arrangement of critical amino acid residues, except Arg272 of the former and Lys603 and Lys485 of the latter. Ten derivatives of d-hexitol-6-P, 5-phosphoarabinoate, or 6-phosphogluconate, structural analogues of putative cis-enolamine or cis-enolate intermediates, were tested as inhibitors of fungal GlcN-6-P synthase and PGI. None of the investigated compounds demonstrated equally high inhibitory potential against both enzymes. 2-Amino-2-deoxy-D-mannitol 6-P was found to be the strongest GlcN-6-P synthase inhibitor in the series, with an inhibition constant equal to 9.0 (+/-1.0) x 10(-6)M. On the contrary, 5-phosphoarabinoate (5PA) exhibited specificity for PGI, with K(i)=2.2 (+/-0.1) x 10(-6) M. N-acetylation substantially lowered the GlcN-6-P synthase inhibitory potential of 2-amino-2-deoxy-D-glucitol-6-P but strongly enhanced inhibitory potential of this compound towards PGI. Molecular modeling studies revealed that interactions of the C1-C2 part of transition state analogue inhibitors with the respective areas demonstrating different distribution of molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) inside HPI and PGI active centers determined enzyme:ligand affinity. In Escherichia coli HPI, a patch of the negative potential created by Glu488 aided by Val399, supposed to stabilize a putative positively charged intermediate, especially attracts ligands containing 2-amino function. The Arg272, Lys210, and Gly271 peptide bond nitrogen system, present in the corresponding space of rabbit PGI, creates an area of positive MEP, stabilizing cis-enolate intermediate and attracting its structural mimics, such as 5PA.
