BackgroundApolipoprotein L1 gene (APOL1) G1 and G2 renal-risk variants, common in populations with recent African ancestry, are strongly associated with non-diabetic nephropathy, end-stage kidney disease, and shorter allograft survival in deceased-donor kidneys (autosomal recessive inheritance). Circulating APOL1 protein is synthesized primarily in the liver and hydrodynamic gene delivery of APOL1 G1 and G2 risk variants has caused hepatic necrosis in a murine model.MethodsTo evaluate the impact of these variants in liver transplantation, this multicenter study investigated the association of APOL1 G1 and G2 alleles in deceased African American liver donors with allograft survival. Transplant recipients were followed for liver allograft survival using data from the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients.ResultsOf the 639 liver donors evaluated, 247 had no APOL1 risk allele, 300 had 1 risk allele, and 92 had 2 risk alleles. Graft failure assessed at 15 days, 6 months, 1 year and total was not significantly associated with donor APOL1 genotype (p-values = 0.25, 0.19, 0.67 and 0.89, respectively).ConclusionsIn contrast to kidney transplantation, deceased-donor APOL1 G1 and G2 risk variants do not significantly impact outcomes in liver transplantation. 相似文献

In this study, we sequenced mt Cox 1 gene sequences of five nematode spp. that were infective to arthropod, Gryllotalpa africana.
The nematode belongs to Thelastomatoidea, a group of pinworms that parasitizes only invertebrates. Currently, in India spp. of
this group are distinguished mainly on the basis of morphological characters that present possible confusions. Therefore, we
identified the species through morphological and genetic analysis. We selected mt Cox 1 gene region to show their phylogenetic
position with closely related spp. and confirmed their molecular validation. The present findings are important to confirm the
phylogenetic position and relationship among five nematode spp. and avoid misidentification regarding their validation, as it is
more necessary in that case when many species harbours the same host. 相似文献

Biosorption is an effective treatment method for the removal of phenol and cyanide from aqueous solution by saw dust activated carbon (SDAC). Batch experiments were achieved as a function of several experimental parameters, i.e. influence of biosorbent dose (5–60 g/L) contact time (2–40 h), pH (4–12), initial phenol concentration (100–1000 mg/L) and initial cyanide concentration (10–100 mg/L) and temperature (20–40 °C). The biosorption capacities of the biosorbent were detected as 178.85 mg/g for phenol with 300 mg/L of initial concentration and 0.82 mg/g for cyanide with 30 mg/L of initial concentration. The optimum pH is found to be 8 for phenol and 9 for cyanide biosorption. The mono component biosorption equilibrium data for both phenol and cyanide were well defined by Redlich–Peterson model and binary component adsorption equilibrium data well fitted by extended Freundlich model. The percentage removal of phenol and cyanide using SDAC was 66.67% and 73.33%, respectively. Equilibrium established within 30 h for phenol and 28 h for cyanide. Kinetic studies revealed that biosorption of phenol followed pseudo second order indicating adsorption through chemisorption and cyanide followed pseudo first order kinetic model indicating adsorption through physisorption. Thermodynamic studies parameters, i.e., enthalpy (Δh0), entropy (ΔS0) and Gibb’s free energy (ΔG0) have also been considered for the system. Thermodynamic modeling studies revealed that the process of cyanide biosorption was endothermic and phenol biosorption was exothermic in nature. 相似文献

Elevated levels of homocysteine (Hcy) known as hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy) are associated with arrhythmogenesis and sudden cardiac death (SCD). Hcy decreases constitutive neuronal and endothelial nitric oxide (NO), and cardiac diastolic relaxation. Hcy increases the iNOS/NO, peroxynitrite, mitochondrial NADPH oxidase, and suppresses superoxide dismutase (SOD) and redoxins. Hcy activates matrix metalloproteinase (MMP), disrupts connexin-43 and increases collagen/elastin ratio. The disruption of connexin-43 and accumulation of collagen (fibrosis) disrupt the normal pattern of cardiac conduction and attenuate NO transport from endothelium to myocyte (E-M) causing E-M uncoupling, leading to a pro-arrhythmic environment. The goal of this review is to elaborate the mechanism of Hcy-mediated iNOS/NO in E-M uncoupling and SCD. It is known that Hcy creates arrhythmogenic substrates (i.e. increase in collagen/elastin ratio and disruption in connexin-43) and exacerbates heart failure during chronic volume overload. Also, Hcy behaves as an agonist to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA, an excitatory neurotransmitter) receptor-1, and blockade of NMDA-R1 reduces the increase in heart rate-evoked by NMDA-analog and reduces SCD. This review suggest that Hcy increases iNOS/NO, superoxide, metalloproteinase activity, and disrupts connexin-43, exacerbates endothelial-myocyte uncoupling and cardiac failure secondary to inducing NMDA-R1. 相似文献

Homocysteine (Hcy) induces matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 in microvascular endothelial cells (MVECs). We hypothesized that the ERK1/2 signaling pathway is involved in Hcy-mediated MMP-9 expression. In cultured MVECs, Hcy induced activation of ERK, which was blocked by PD-98059 and U0126 (MEK inhibitors). Pretreatment with BAPTA-AM, staurosporine (PKC inhibitor), or Gö6976 (specific inhibitor for Ca2+-dependent PKC) abrogated ERK phosphorylation, suggesting the role of Ca2+ and Ca2+-dependent PKC in Hcy-induced ERK activation. ERK phosphorylation was suppressed by pertussis toxin (PTX), suggesting the involvement of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) in initiating signal transduction by Hcy and leading to ERK activation. Pretreatment of MVECs with genistein, BAPTA-AM, or thapsigargin abrogated Hcy-induced ERK activation, suggesting the involvement of the PTK pathway in Hcy-induced ERK activation, which was mediated by intracellular Ca2+ pool depletion. ERK activation was attenuated by preincubation with N-acetylcysteine (NAC) and SOD, suggesting the role of oxidation in Hcy-induced ERK activation. Pretreatment with an ERK1/2 blocker (PD-98059), staurosporine, folate, or NAC modulated Hcy-induced MMP-9 activation as measured using zymography. Our results provide evidence that Hcy triggers the PTX-sensitive ERK1/2 signaling pathway, which is involved in the regulation of MMP-9 in MVECs. calcium signaling; protein kinase C; Src; G protein-coupled receptor; nonreceptor tyrosine kinase; protein Gi; protein Gq; protein tyrosine kinase 2; microvascular endothelial cell; cardiovascular remodeling 相似文献

Bacterial isolates having antifungal and good plant growth-promoting attributes were isolated from chir-pine (Pinus roxburghii) rhizosphere. An isolate, Bacillus subtilis BN1 exhibited strong antagonistic activity against Macrophomina phaseolina, and other phytopathogens including Fusarium oxysporum and Rhizoctonia solani. It was characterized and selected for the present studies. BN1 resulted in vacuolation, hyphal squeezing, swelling, abnormal
branching and lysis of mycelia. The cell-free culture filtrate of BN1 inhibited the growth of M. phaseolina. Pot trial study resulted in statistically significant increase in seedling biomass besides reduction in root rot symptoms
in chir-pine seedlings. BN1 treatment resulted in 43.6% and 93.54% increases in root and shoot dry weights respectively, as
compared to control. Also, 80–85% seed viability was recorded in treatments receiving BN1 either alone or in the presence
of M. phaseolina, compared to 54.5% with M. phaseolina. Bioinoculant formulation study suggested that maximum viability of bacteria was in a sawdust-based carrier. B. subtilis BN1 produced lytic enzymes, chitinase and β-1,3-glucanase, which are known to cause hyphal degradation and digestion of the
cell wall component of M. phaseolina. In the presence of M. phaseolina, population of B1 was 1.5 × 104 c.f.u. g−1 root after one month, which increased to 4.5 × 104 c.f.u. g−1 root in three months. Positive root colonization capability of B. subtilis BN1 proved it as a potent biocontrol agent. 相似文献

Theaflavins induce G2/M arrest by modulating expression of p21waf1/cip1, cdc25C and cyclin B in human prostate carcinoma PC-3 cells 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Cancer of the prostate gland (PCA) is the most common invasive malignancy and is the second leading cause of cancer-related death in males. The polyphenolic constituents of black tea have gained considerable attention as chemopreventive agents. Many studies have shown that black tea reduces the risk of several cancer types. In the present study, we studied the effect of a black tea polyphenol, theaflavin (TF), on cellular proliferation and cell death in the human prostate cancer cell line, PC-3. We showed that TF inhibits cell proliferation in a dose- and time-dependent manner. Studies on cell cycle progression have shown that the anti-proliferative effect of TF is associated with an increase in the G2/M phase of PC-3 cells. Western blot results showed that TF-induced G2/M phase arrest was mediated through the inhibition of cyclin-regulated signaling pathways. TF induces cyclin kinase inhibitor p21(waf1/cip1) expression and inhibits cdc25C and cyclin B expression. Increased exposure time to TF caused apoptosis of PC-3 cells, which was associated with up-regulation of the pro-apoptotic proteins Bax, caspase-3 and caspase-9 and down-regulation of anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2. The role of caspase-induced apoptosis was further confirmed by a reduction in mitochondria membrane potential and the appearance of a DNA laddering pattern. Thus, it can be concluded that TF acts as an effective anti-proliferative agent by modulating cell growth regulators in prostate cancer cells. 相似文献
