It is of interest to document the effect of Emblica officinalis (E. officinalis) and Zingiber officinalae (Z. officinalae) leaf extract on reactive oxygen species, antioxidant potential changes in arsenic and lead-induced toxicity in male rats. We used 8 groups of adult male Wistar rats with 1 control group for this study. The animals were divided into Group I: Control and Group II: Lead and sodium arsenite induced rats (animals were induced for metal toxicity by the combined administration of arsenic (13.8 mg/ kg body weight) and lead (116.4 mg/kg body weight). These doses were administered by gastric intubation during 14 consecutive days using known standard procedures. Arsenic and lead induced rats treated with ethanolic extract of Emblica officinalis (60 mg/kg body weight/day, orally for 45 days) are group III rats. Group IV animals are arsenic and lead induced rats treated orally with ethanolic extracts of E. officinalis (120 mg/kg body weight/day for 45 days). Group V animals are arsenic and lead induced rats treated orally with ethanolic extracts of Z. officinalae (60 mg/kg body weight/day for 45 days). Group VI animals are arsenic and lead induced rats orally treated with ethanolic extracts of Zingiber officinalis (120 mg/kg body weight/day for 45 days). Group VII animals are arsenic and lead induced rats treated orally with ethanolic extracts of E. officinalis and Z. officinalae (60 + 60 mg/kg body weight/day for 45 days). Group VIII animals are arsenic and lead induced rats treated orally with ethanolic extracts of E. officinalis and Z. officinalae (120 + 120 mg/kg body weight/day, orally for 45 days). Normal Control animals were treated orally with ethanolic extracts of E. officinalis (120mg/kg body weight) + Z. officinalae (120mg/kg body weight) for 45 days. The control and experimental animals were then subjected to analysis for oxidative stress markers such as H2O2, *OH, and lipid peroxidation (LPO), antioxidant enzymes in addition to liver and kidney function markers. Results: Arsenic and lead induced rats showed a significant increase in the levels of reactive oxygen species (H2O2, OH* and LPO) with concomitant alterations in the renal and liver tissues. However, enzymic and non-enzymic antioxidant levels were decreased. Nevertheless, an oral effective dose of E. officinalis and Z. officinalae (120 + 120 mg/kg body weight/day increased the antioxidant enzymes and retrieved the altered levels of ROS and LPO that were induced by arsenic and lead. Thus, we show that E. officinalis and Z. officinalae leaf extract exhibits nephroprotective and hepatoprotective role through the restoration of reactive oxygen species and antioxidant enzymes in the kidney and liver tissue of Arsenic and Lead-induced nephrotoxicity and hepatotoxicity in rats. Hence, E. officinalis and Z. officinalae leaf extract are potential therapeutic options for the treatment of metal toxicity-induced kidney and liver diseases. 相似文献

Osteosarcoma is the frequent pediatric bone cancer where pediatric osteosarcoma incidences are more than 10% within the population. Most of the patients with osteosarcoma fall within the age of 15–30 years. Therefore, in this research, we examined the anticancer effect of Rhaponticin against the human osteosarcoma (MG-63) cells. The cytotoxicity of Rhaponticin on the MC3T3-E1 and MG-63 cells was examined through the MTT assay. The intracellular ROS accumulation, cell nuclear morphological alterations, apoptotic cell death and nuclear damages, and MMP status of Rhaponticin administered MG-63 cells were inspected by fluorescent staining techniques. The cell migration was assessed through scratch assay. The mRNA expressions of PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling proteins were studied by RT-PCR analysis. Rhaponticin showed potent cytotoxicity, substantially inhibited the MG-63 cell growth, and displayed morphological alterations. However, rhaponticin did not affect the MC3T3-E1 cell viability. Rhaponticin administered MG-63 cells demonstrated augmented intracellular ROS accretion, weakened MMP, increased nuclear damages, and increased apoptosis. Rhaponticin effectively down-regulated the PI3K-Akt-mTOR signaling cascade in the MG-63 cells. These outcomes proved that the Rhaponticin can be a hopeful chemotherapeutic agent in the future to treat human osteosarcoma. 相似文献

A number of rice resistance genes, called Xa genes, have been identified that confer resistance against various strains of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae (Xoo), the causal agent of bacterial blight. An understanding of pathotype diversity within the target pathogen population is required for identifying the Xa genes that are to be deployed for development of resistant rice cultivars. Among 1024 isolates of Xoo collected from 20 different states of India, 11 major pathotypes were distinguished based on their reaction towards ten Xa genes (Xa1, Xa3, Xa4, xa5, Xa7, xa8, Xa10, Xa11, xa13, Xa21). Isolates belonging to pathotype III showing incompatible interaction towards xa8, xa13 and Xa21 and compatible interaction towards the rest of Xa genes formed the most frequent (41%) and widely distributed pathotype. The vast majority of the assayed Xoo isolates were incompatible with one or more Xa genes. Exceptionally, the isolates of pathotype XI were virulent on all Xa genes, but have restricted distribution. Considering the individual R-genes, Xa21 appeared as the most broadly effective, conferring resistance against 88 % of the isolates, followed in decreasing order by xa13 (84 %), xa8 (64 %), xa5 (30 %), Xa7 (17 %) and Xa4 (14 %). Fifty isolates representing all the eleven pathotypes were analyzed by southern hybridization to determine their genetic relatedness using the IS1112 repeat element of Xoo. Isolates belonging to pathotype XI were the most divergent. The results suggest that one RFLP haplotype that is widely distributed all over India and is represented in strains from five different pathotypes might be an ancestral haplotype. A rice line with xa5, xa13 and Xa21 resistance genes is resistant to all strains, including those belonging to pathotype XI. This three gene combination appears to be the most suitable Xa gene combination to be deployed in Indian rice cultivars. 相似文献

Microaerophilic adaptation has been described as one of the in vitro dormancy models for tuberculosis. Studies on Mycobacterium tuberculosis adapted to low oxygen levels showed an enhancement of glycine dehydrogenase (deaminating) activity. We studied the physiology of the fast-growing, nonpathogenic strain of Mycobacterium smegmatis ATCC 607 under low oxygen by shifting the actively growing M. smegmatis cells to static microaerophilic growth conditions. This shifting of M. smegmatis culture resulted in a similar phenomenon as seen with M. tuberculosis, i.e., elevated glycine dehydrogenase activity. Further purification of glycine dehydrogenase from M. smegmatis demonstrated glyoxylate amination, but failed to demonstrate glycine deamination, even in the purified fraction. Moreover, the purified protein showed pyruvate amination as well as L-alanine deamination activities. By activity staining, the protein band positive for glyoxylate amination demonstrated only pyruvate amination in the presence of NAD. Absence of glycine deamination activity strongly suggested that alanine dehydrogenase of M. smegmatis was responsible for glyoxylate amination in the cell lysate. This was further confirmed by demonstrating the similar level of upregulation of both glyoxylate and pyruvate amination activities in the cell lysate of the adapted culture. 相似文献

Background
Characterizing large genomic variants is essential to expanding the research and clinical applications of genome sequencing. While multiple data types and methods are available to detect these structural variants (SVs), they remain less characterized than smaller variants because of SV diversity, complexity, and size. These challenges are exacerbated by the experimental and computational demands of SV analysis. Here, we characterize the SV content of a personal genome with Parliament, a publicly available consensus SV-calling infrastructure that merges multiple data types and SV detection methods.Results
We demonstrate Parliament’s efficacy via integrated analyses of data from whole-genome array comparative genomic hybridization, short-read next-generation sequencing, long-read (Pacific BioSciences RSII), long-insert (Illumina Nextera), and whole-genome architecture (BioNano Irys) data from the personal genome of a single subject (HS1011). From this genome, Parliament identified 31,007 genomic loci between 100 bp and 1 Mbp that are inconsistent with the hg19 reference assembly. Of these loci, 9,777 are supported as putative SVs by hybrid local assembly, long-read PacBio data, or multi-source heuristics. These SVs span 59 Mbp of the reference genome (1.8%) and include 3,801 events identified only with long-read data. The HS1011 data and complete Parliament infrastructure, including a BAM-to-SV workflow, are available on the cloud-based service DNAnexus.Conclusions
HS1011 SV analysis reveals the limits and advantages of multiple sequencing technologies, specifically the impact of long-read SV discovery. With the full Parliament infrastructure, the HS1011 data constitute a public resource for novel SV discovery, software calibration, and personal genome structural variation analysis.Electronic supplementary material

Natural remedies from medicinal plants are known to be effective and reliable appropriate medicine for illnesses. The current research examined Plectranthus amboinicus'' anti diabetic property by docking the bioactive compounds of certain target proteins. We document the molecular docking analysis of bioactive compounds from Plectranthus amboinicus with protein Glucokinase. Molecular docking experiments were carried out in PyRx software. Results of these docking experiments showed that most of the compounds showed very strong interaction with the target protein Glucokinase. Based on the scoring parameters we have selected best four compounds (Rutin, Salvianolic acid, Luteolin and Salvigenin) which showed very good docking score and hydrogen bond interaction for diabetics. 相似文献

Short DNA segments designated Okazaki fragments are intermediates in eukaryotic DNA replication. Each contains an initiator RNA/DNA primer (iRNA/DNA), which is converted into a 5'-flap and then removed prior to fragment joining. In one model for this process, the flap endonuclease 1 (FEN1) removes the iRNA. In the other, the single-stranded binding protein, replication protein A (RPA), coats the flap, inhibits FEN1, but stimulates cleavage by the Dna2p helicase/nuclease. RPA dissociates from the resultant short flap, allowing FEN1 cleavage. To determine the most likely process, we analyzed cleavage of short and long 5'-flaps. FEN1 cleaves 10-nucleotide fixed or equilibrating flaps in an efficient reaction, insensitive to even high levels of RPA or Dna2p. On 30-nucleotide fixed or equilibrating flaps, RPA partially inhibits FEN1. CTG flaps can form foldback structures and were inhibitory to both nucleases, however, addition of a dT(12) to the 5'-end of a CTG flap allowed Dna2p cleavage. The presence of high Dna2p activity, under reaction conditions favoring helicase activity, substantially stimulated FEN1 cleavage of tailed-foldback flaps and also 30-nucleotide unstructured flaps. Our results suggest Dna2p is not used for processing of most flaps. However, Dna2p has a role in a pathway for processing structured flaps, in which it aids FEN1 using both its nuclease and helicase activities. 相似文献
