A novel disintegrin-like domain of a high molecular weight metalloprotease inhibits platelet aggregation

Disintegrin is one of the functionally distinct domains in high molecular weight metalloproteases from various snake venoms and generally has an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) sequence that is recognized by specific cell surface integrins. A cDNA encoding the disintegrin-like domain of a snake venom metalloprotease was cloned, expressed in Pichia pastoris, and molecular function of the recombinant protein was characterized. The cDNA sequence indicated that the disintegrin-like domain contains an Asp-Glu-Cys-Asp (DECD) sequence in place of the RGD motif. The expressed disintegrin-like protein was designated as halydin and it was able to inhibit human platelet aggregation in a dose-dependent manner. Unlike other typical RGD-disintegrins, the recombinant non-RGD disintegrin, halydin, inhibited platelet aggregation by suppressing platelet adhesion to collagen rather than by blocking fibrinogen binding to glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa on the platelet surface. Experimental evidence suggests that halydin binds to integrin alpha2beta1 on the platelet surface.

Isolation and antioxidant property of the extracellular polysaccharide from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Rhodella reticulata</Emphasis>

The extracellular polysaccharide from Rhodella reticulata was separated from the culture medium followed by concentration and ethanol precipitation, and purified by anion exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sepharose Fast Flow. This study compared the free radical-scavenging property and antioxidant activity with various treatments of crude extracellular polysaccharides of R. reticulata. The results showed that both the crude extracellular polysaccharide and deproteinized crude extracellular polysaccharide gave evidence of the free radical scavenging and antioxidant activity in a dose-dependent manner. The crude extracellular polysaccharide exhibited higher free radical scavenging capacity and better antioxidant activity than the various treatments of crude extracellular polysaccharide samples. The superoxide anion radical scavenging ability of various samples was significantly higher compared to standard antioxidant (α-tocopherol). These results indicate that the extracellular polysaccharide of R. reticulata is a potent natural antioxidant.

Polymeric micelles with glycolipid-like structure and multiple hydrophobic domains for mediating molecular target delivery of paclitaxel

Herein, polymeric micelles with glycolipid-like structure and about 40 nm diameter are prepared by self-aggregation from stearate-grafted chitosan oligosaccharides in aqueous medium. The micelles, with high degree of substitution (DS), present specific spatial structure with multiple hydrophobic "minor cores", and thus obtain excellent internalization into cancer cells and accumulation in cytoplasm. Furthermore, the micelles showed pH-sensitive properties, thus favoring intracellular delivery of encapsulated drug via endocytosis. The cell cytotoxicity of paclitaxel encapsulated in micelles was improved sharply and contributed to the increased intracellular delivery of the drug. The present micelles are a promising carrier candidate for targeting therapy of antitumor drugs with a cytoplasmic molecule target.     

Reconstruction of lignin and hemicelluloses by aqueous ethanol anti‐solvents to improve the ionic liquid‐acid pretreatment performance of Arundo donax Linn

Ionic liquid (IL)‐acid pretreatment is known to not only enhance the enzymatic hydrolysis efficiency of lignocellulose but also to generate deposits on the surface of fiber by conventional water regeneration, which retard the increment. In this study, ethanol aqueous solution regeneration was developed as a new method to change the substrates characteristics for IL‐acid pretreatment and their effects on the enzymatic hydrolysis were evaluated. Following the IL‐acid reaction, the biomass slurry was subjected to ethanol aqueous solution at various concentration. Results indicated that anti‐solvent choice significantly influenced the reconstruction of both hemicelluloses and lignin as a result of the competition between water and ethanol. The partial removal of hemicelluloses and suitable lignin re‐localization contributed to a more porous structure. Consequently, the cellulose digestibility of aqueous ethanol regenerated samples was dramatically enhanced to ～100% and approximately 11‐ and 2‐fold higher than that of untreated and conventional water regenerated pretreated samples, respectively. A giant leap in the initial rate of enzymatic hydrolysis was also detected in 50% ethanol aqueous solution regenerated samples and only about 10 hr was needed to convert 80% of cellulose to glucose due to the appearance of cellulose II hydrate‐like and more porous structure.
