Genome-scale models of metabolism have only been analyzed with the constraint-based modelling philosophy and there have been several genome-scale gene-protein-reaction models. But research on the modelling for energy metabolism of organisms just began in recent years and research on metabolic weighted complex network are rare in literature. We have made three research based on the complete model of E. coli’s energy metabolism. We first constructed a metabolic weighted network using the rates of free energy consumption within metabolic reactions as the weights. We then analyzed some structural characters of the metabolic weighted network that we constructed. We found that the distribution of the weight values was uneven, that most of the weight values were zero while reactions with abstract large weight values were rare and that the relationship between w (weight values) and v (flux values) was not of linear correlation. At last, we have done some research on the equilibrium of free energy for the energy metabolism system of E. coli. We found that (free energy rate input from the environment) can meet the demand of (free energy rate dissipated by chemical process) and that chemical process plays a great role in the dissipation of free energy in cells. By these research and to a certain extend, we can understand more about the energy metabolism of E. coli. 相似文献

Diabetes mellitus causes endothelial dysfunction, which further exacerbates peripheral arterial disease (PAD). Improving endothelial function via reducing endothelial oxidative stress (OS) may be a promising therapy for diabetic PAD. Activation of liver X receptor (LXR) inhibits excessive OS and provides protective effects on endothelial cells in diabetic individuals. Therefore, we investigated the effects of LXR agonist treatment on diabetic PAD with a focus on modulating endothelial OS. We used a streptozotocin-induced diabetes mouse model combined with a hindlimb ischaemia (HLI) injury to mimic diabetic PAD, which was followed by LXR agonist treatment. In our study, the LXR agonist T0901317 protected against HLI injury in diabetic mice by attenuating endothelial OS and stimulating angiogenesis. However, a deficiency in endothelial Sirtuin1 (SIRT1) largely inhibited the therapeutic effects of T0901317. Furthermore, we found that the underlying therapeutic mechanisms of T0901317 were related to SIRT1 and non-SIRT1 signalling, and the isoform LXRβ was involved in LXR agonist-elicited SIRT1 regulation. In conclusion, LXR agonist treatment protected against HLI injury in diabetic mice via mitigating endothelial OS and stimulating cellular viability and angiogenesis by LXRβ, which elicited both SIRT1-mediated and non-SIRT1-mediated signalling pathways. Therefore, LXR agonist treatment may be a promising therapeutic strategy for diabetic PAD. 相似文献

Having a comprehensive understanding of population structure, genetic differentiation and demographic history is important for the conservation and management of threatened species. High‐throughput sequencing (HTS) provides exciting opportunities to address a wide range of factors for conservation genetics. Here, we generated HTS data and identified 266,884 high‐quality single nucleotide polymorphisms from 82 individuals of Cupressus chengiana, to assess population genomics across the species' full range, comprising the Daduhe River (DDH), Minjiang River (MJR) and Bailongjiang River (BLJ) catchments in western China. admixture , principal components analysis and phylogenetic analyses indicated that each region contains a distinct lineage, with high levels of differentiation between them (DDH, MJR and BLJ lineages). MJR was newly distinguished compared to previous surveys, and evidence including coalescent simulations supported a hybrid origin of MJR during the Quaternary. Each of these three lineages should be recognized as an evolutionarily significant unit (ESU), due to isolation, differing genetic adaptations and different demographic history. Currently, each ESU faces distinct threats, and will require different conservation strategies. Our work shows that population genomic approaches using HTS can reconstruct the complex evolutionary history of threatened species in mountainous regions, and hence inform conservation efforts, and contribute to the understanding of high biodiversity in mountains. 相似文献

Vitex negundo L. var. heterophylla (Franch.) Rehder (Lamiaceae) is an important tree species for soil and water conservation, yet the reproductive ecology of this species remains to be elucidated. To investigate the reproductive traits of V. negundo var. heterophylla, the phenology, morphological characteristics (a suite of characters was assessed: floral morphology, nectar production, pollen viability, and stigma receptivity) and mating system of this species were systematically revealed for the first time in this study. Phenological observations, morphological measurements, and nectar production analysis were conducted during anthesis. Pollen viability and stigma receptivity at different flowering stages were measured by biochemical methods. Finally, genetic analysis based on SSR markers was used to reveal the mating system; outcrossing index and pollen‐ovule ratio were also calculated to help analysis. V. negundo var. heterophylla showed several obvious characteristics of outcrossing, such as abundant and attractive flowers, secreting nectar, and emitting scent. In addition, mechanisms such as homogamy and a short anther‐stigma distance that can promote self‐fertilization were also identified in this species. The coexistence of selfing and outcrossing characteristics demonstrates a predominantly outcrossed mixed mating system (outcrossing rate, t = 95%). The scientific information provided by this study may contribute to conservation of V. negundo var. heterophylla from a reproductive perspective. 相似文献

VKORC1 genetic polymorphisms affect warfarin dose response, aortic calcification, and the susceptibility of coronary artery disease as shown in our previous study. Little is known regarding the association of VKORC1 polymorphisms with coronary artery calcification (CAC) and the role of CAC in the association with coronary artery disease (CAD). Due to a natural haplotype block in the VKORC1 gene in Chinese, polymorphism rs2359612 was analyzed in a case–control study and a prospective study. The case–control study included 464 CAD patients with non-calcified plaque (NCP), 562 CAD patients with mixed calcified plaque (MCP), 492 subjects with calcified plaque (CP), and 521 controls. The rs2359612C was only associated with increased risk of MCP, the CAD in the presence of CAC; the odds ratio was 1.397 (95 % CI 1.008–1.937, P < 0.05), which was replicated in the second independent population. On the contrary, a negative correlation was observed between rs2359612 and log-transformed Agatston score, and rs2359612 was negatively associated with the number of calcified vessels. Moreover, in a prospective study including 849 CAD patients undergoing revascularization, rs2359612C predicted a higher incidence of cardiovascular events in MCP subgroup; the relative risk was 1.435 (95 % CI 1.008–2.041, P = 0.045), which was not observed in the NCP subgroup. We conclude that the rs2359612C was associated with a higher risk of CAD in the presence of CAC and a higher incidence of cardiovascular events in CAD patients with CAC, but a lower coronary calcification. VKORC1 polymorphisms may be associated with the endophenotype of CAD, calcification-related atherosclerosis. 相似文献

Flux balance analysis (FBA) has been widely used in calculating steady‐state flux distributions that provide important information for metabolic engineering. Several thermodynamics‐based methods, for example, quantitative assignment of reaction directionality and energy balance analysis have been developed to improve the prediction accuracy of FBA. However, these methods can only generate a thermodynamically feasible range, rather than the most thermodynamically favorable solution. We therefore developed a novel optimization method termed as thermodynamic optimum searching (TOS) to calculate the thermodynamically optimal solution, based on the second law of thermodynamics, the minimum magnitude of the Gibbs free energy change and the maximum entropy production principle (MEPP). Then, TOS was applied to five physiological conditions of Escherichia coli to evaluate its effectiveness. The resulting prediction accuracy was found significantly improved (10.7–48.5%) by comparing with the 13C‐fluxome data, indicating that TOS can be considered an advanced calculation and prediction tool in metabolic engineering.
