A new series of 2-arylquinoline-4-carboxylic acid hydrazide–hydrazones was synthesized using an appropriate synthetic route. All the target compounds were evaluated for their in vitro antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus as an example for Gram-positive bacteria, Escherichia coli as an example for Gram-negative bacteria, and Candida albicans as a representative of fungi. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) was determined for test compounds as well as for reference standards. Among the compounds tested, compounds having nitro substituents at the arylidene moiety showed the most potent antifungal as well as antibacterial activities against E. coli. Compound 23 displayed an antifungal activity comparable to that of nystatin. However, none of the compounds demonstrated any antibacterial activity against S. aureus. Hydrophobicity of the target compounds correlated weakly with their antibacterial and antifungal activities. The most potent compounds namely, 7, 18, 19, 22, and 23 were assessed for hemolytic toxicity and found to be non-hemolytic up to a concentration of 100 μg/mL. In addition, the most potent compound (23) was evaluated for in vitro cytotoxic activity against various cancer cell lines. This compound was found to display no cytotoxic activity but rather it induces the proliferation rate of Hep-G2 cells. 相似文献

Forensic science uses scientific methods to help the scientists who study evidence to assist in the solving of crimes. Coleoptera is the most diverse and speciose group of insects that have an important role in many scientific fields especially forensic entomology. In addition, it is difficult to morphologically identify and discriminate between them. In the present study, the molecular analysis using mitochondrial DNA information was conducted to swiftly and accurately identify the recovered Coleoptera species. A molecular identification method involving a 221‐bp segment of the 16 s ribosomal RNA (16 s rRNA) gene from three beetle species, collected from a rabbit carcass, was evaluated. The analysis with maximum likelihood method recovered a generally well supported phylogeny, with most currently accepted taxa and species groups as monophyletic. These results will be instrumental for the implementation of the Saudian database of forensically relevant beetles. 相似文献

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang-1) is a ligand for Tie-2 receptors and a promoter of angiogenesis. Angiogenesis plays an important role in breast cancer, as it is one of the critical events required for tumors to grow and metastasize. In this study, we investigated the influence of estradiol (E2) on the expression of angiopoietins in breast cancer cell lines. Ang-1 mRNA and protein expressions were significantly higher in estrogen receptor-negative (ERα-) breast cancer cells than in estrogen receptor-positive (ERα+) cells. Exposure of ERα+ cells to E2 resulted in further reductions of Ang-1 levels. In mouse mammary pads inoculated with breast cancer cells, both tumor size and Ang-1 production were significantly lower in ERα+ cell-derived xenografts, as compared to those derived from ERα- cells. Reduction of circulating levels of E2 by ovariectomy eliminated this response. Overall, these results indicate that Ang-1 mRNA and protein expressions: (1) negatively correlate with the level of ERα in breast cancer cell lines; (2) are downregulated by E2 in an ERα dependent manner; and (3) positively correlate with the degree of angiogenesis in vivo. We conclude that Ang-1 is an important modulator of growth and progression of ERα- breast cancers. 相似文献

Background
Current guidelines for evaluating cleft palate treatments are mostly based on two-dimensional (2D) evaluation, but three-dimensional (3D) imaging methods to assess treatment outcome are steadily rising.Objective
To identify 3D imaging methods for quantitative assessment of soft tissue and skeletal morphology in patients with cleft lip and palate.Data sources
Literature was searched using PubMed (1948–2012), EMBASE (1980–2012), Scopus (2004–2012), Web of Science (1945–2012), and the Cochrane Library. The last search was performed September 30, 2012. Reference lists were hand searched for potentially eligible studies. There was no language restriction.Study selection
We included publications using 3D imaging techniques to assess facial soft tissue or skeletal morphology in patients older than 5 years with a cleft lip with/or without cleft palate. We reviewed studies involving the facial region when at least 10 subjects in the sample size had at least one cleft type. Only primary publications were included.Data extraction
Independent extraction of data and quality assessments were performed by two observers.Results
Five hundred full text publications were retrieved, 144 met the inclusion criteria, with 63 high quality studies. There were differences in study designs, topics studied, patient characteristics, and success measurements; therefore, only a systematic review could be conducted. Main 3D-techniques that are used in cleft lip and palate patients are CT, CBCT, MRI, stereophotogrammetry, and laser surface scanning. These techniques are mainly used for soft tissue analysis, evaluation of bone grafting, and changes in the craniofacial skeleton. Digital dental casts are used to evaluate treatment and changes over time.Conclusion
Available evidence implies that 3D imaging methods can be used for documentation of CLP patients. No data are available yet showing that 3D methods are more informative than conventional 2D methods. Further research is warranted to elucidate it.Systematic review registration

Rett syndrome (RTT) is a severe neurodevelopmental disorder affecting almost exclusively girls. Rett patients present an apparently normal psychomotor development during the first 6-18 months of life. Thereafter, they show a short period of developmental stagnation followed by a rapid regression in language and motor development. RTT is currently considered as monogenic X-linked dominant disorder due to mutations in the MECP2 gene, encoding the methyl-CpG binding protein 2. The aim of this study was to perform a mutational analysis of the MECP2 gene in a classical Rett patient.The results showed the presence of a novel point mutation c.C1142T (p.P381L) and two deletions at the heterozygous state: a novel deletion c.1075delTTC (p.S359) and a known one c.1157del44 (p.L386Q fs X2) in the C-terminal region of MeCP2. 相似文献

Terminal progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) culminates in liver metastasis. To identify genes that are involved in the metastatic phenotype, cDNA microarrays were used to analyse mRNA expression profiles of colorectal carcinoma (CC)531 rat colon adenocarcinoma cells for changes related to their homing into the liver. Briefly, CC531 cells were intraportally implanted into the liver of Wag-Rij rats and re-isolated after 3, 6, 9, 14 and 21 days. Compared to control CC531 cells, claudin1 and claudin4 were among the ≥8-fold initially down-regulated genes. The co-culture of tumour cells with isolated rat hepatocytes and Kupffer cells did not induce down-regulation of either claudin1 or 4. When the environment effective on circulating tumour cells was simulated by cell culture conditions favouring their adhesion, only claudin4 showed augmented expression. Knockdown of claudin1 and claudin4 mediated by small interfering RNA caused significantly increased migration and decreased clonogenic growth of tumour cells (P < 0.05), but had no effect on their proliferation. These experimental results were paralleled by increased claudin1 and claudin4 expression in human CRC samples in Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) stages I-III, as evaluated by real-time PCR. Increased claudin4 levels were correlated with significantly reduced overall survival (log-rank test, P= 0.018). Further, significantly (P < 0.05) reduced expression of claudin1 and claudin4 was observed in stage IV and liver metastasis by immunohistochemistry. In conclusion, sequential biphasic changes in claudin1 and claudin4 expression occur during the homing of rat CC531 CRC cells to the liver. This modulation is reflected by significant changes in claudin expression in human primary and metastatic CRC. 相似文献
