Quantification of 7 2 hydroxyethyl guanine 7 HEG adduct in DNA of livers and lymphocytes of male Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to 300 ppm ethene by inhalation 12 h a day for three consecutive days was performed to evaluate the potential of ethene to produce DNA adducts in these tissues. The persistence of 7 HEG in livers and lymphocytes was studied in rats sacrificed 0, 1, 5, and 20 days after the last exposure. DNA samples from control and treated animals were analysed for 7 HEG and 7 methylguanine 7 MG adducts by thin layer chromatography TLC combined with a high pressure liquid chromatography HPLC assay. After a 3 day exposure to ethene, 7 HEG accumulated to a similar extent in liver and lymphocytes, with the mean adduct level of 7.0 0.7 adducts per 107 nucleotides in liver and 7.4 0.7 adducts per 107 nucleotides in lymphocytes of rats sacrificed immediately after cessation of exposure. The approximate half life of 7 HEG was 5 days in liver and 3 days in lymphocytes, which is consistent with the loss of adduct primarily by spontaneous depurination. In addition, the background levels of 7 HEG and 7 MG were determined in the liver and lymphocytes from the control rats. 相似文献

A comparison was made between lung and kidney homogenates on the one hand and liver S9 from rats on the other hand in order to compare their ability to activate promutagens. The Salmonella reversion assay was used on extracts of airborne particles from the top of coke oven batteries, and of expectorate and urine samples from exposed workers in the same coke plant. The contents of benzo[a]anthracene and benzo[a]pyrene in the different test solutions were measured by high-resolution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. Both mutagens were detected in the filter extract and in the expectorates from the exposed workers but not in the expectorates from the control groups or in the urine samples. The liver S9 gave significantly higher mutagenicity than lung and kidney activation with both filter samples and expectorate and urine samples. 相似文献

Phenazine natural products/compounds possess a range of biological activities, including anti-microbial and cytotoxic, making them valuable starting materials for drug development in several therapeutic areas. These compounds are biosynthesized almost exclusively by eubacteria of both terrestrial and marine origins from erythrose 4-phosphate and phosphoenol pyruvate via the shikimate pathway. In this paper, we report isolation of actinomycete bacteria from marine sediment collected in the Trondheimfjord, Norway. Screening of the isolates for biological activity produced several “hits”, one of which was followed up by identification and purification of the active compound from the actinomycete bacterium Streptosporangium sp. The purified compound, identified as 1,6-dihydroxyphenazine-5,10-dioxide (iodinin), was subjected to extended tests for biological activity against bacteria, fungi and mammalian cells. In these tests, the iodinin demonstrated high anti-microbial and cytotoxic activity, and was particularly potent against leukaemia cell lines. This is the first report on the isolation of iodinin from a marine-derived Streptosporangium. 相似文献

Biofilms are single- or multi-species communities of bacteria that are enclosed in an extracellular matrix. These cells generally exhibit phenotypes that are significantly different from those of planktonic cells, yet detailed elucidation of the causality and the exact nature of this metabolic shift remains challenging. Considering the strong correlation of biofilms with pathogenicity and disease in the clinic, as well as the veritable economic impact of biofilms in other areas, a methodology for in-vivo monitoring of biofilm development is necessary. Here, we present high-resolution mass spectrometry fingerprinting as a rapid, sensitive, and generic technique for online, non-invasive monitoring of developing biofilms. The opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa is used as a model system, and it is demonstrated that strain- and time-dependent changes in biofilm extracellular metabolites are easily detected. 相似文献

The lipid-lowering drug ciprofibrate stimulates gastrin-producing cells in the rat stomach without lowering gastric acidity. Although suggested to be a luminal action on antral peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPAR-alpha), the mechanism is still not fully elucidated. Gastric bypass was surgically prepared in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Gastric-bypassed and sham-operated rats were either given ciprofibrate (50 mg.kg(-1).day(-1) in methocel) or vehicle alone for 7 wk. PPAR-alpha knockout (KO) and wild-type (WT) mice were either given ciprofibrate (500 mg.kg(-1).day(-1) in methocel) or vehicle alone for 2 wk. The concentration of gastrin in blood was analyzed. Antral G cell density and gastrin mRNA abundance were determined by using immunostaining and Northern blot analysis. Ciprofibrate did not raise plasma gastrin or G cell density in gastric-bypassed rats, although the gastrin mRNA level was slightly increased. In contrast, ciprofibrate induced hypergastrinemia, a 50% increase in G cell density, and a threefold increase in gastrin mRNA in sham-operated rats. In PPAR-alpha KO mice, ciprofibrate did not raise G cell density or the gastrin mRNA level. The serum gastrin level was reduced by ciprofibrate. In WT mice, ciprofibrate induced hypergastrinemia, a doubling of G cell density, and a threefold increase in gastrin mRNA. Comparing animals dosed with vehicle only, PPAR-alpha KO mice had higher serum gastrin concentration than WT mice. We conclude that the main effects of ciprofibrate on G cells are mediated from the antrum lumen, and the mechanism is dependent on PPAR-alpha. The results indicate that PPAR-alpha may have a role in the physiological regulation of gastrin release. 相似文献

Young adult male Lewis rats were exposed to ethylene oxide (EO) via single intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections (10-80 mg kg-1) or drinking water (4 weeks at concentrations of 2, 5, and 10 mM) or inhalation (50, 100 or 200 ppm for 4 weeks, 5 days week-1, 6 h day-1) to measure induction of HPRT mutations in lymphocytes from spleen by means of a cloning assay. N-ethyl-N-nitrosourea (ENU) and N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-N-nitrosourea (HOENU) were used as positive controls. Levels of N-(2-hydroxyethyl)valine (HOEtVal) adducts in haemoglobin (expressed in nmol g-1 globin) were measured to determine blood doses of EO (mmol kg-1 h, mM h). Blood doses were used as a common denominator for comparison of mutagenic effects of EO administered via the three routes. The mean HPRT mutant frequency (MF) of the historical control was 4.3 x 10(-6). Maximal mean MFs for ENU (100 mg kg-1) and HOENU (75 mg kg-1) were 243 x 10(-6) and 93 x 10(-6), respectively. In two independent experiments, EO injections led to a statistically significant dose-dependent induction of mutations, with a maximal increase in MF by 2.3-fold over the background. Administration of EO via drinking water gave statistically significant increases of MFs in two independent experiments. Effects were, at most, 2.5-fold above the concurrent control. Finally, inhalation exposure also caused a statistically significant maximal increase in MF by 1.4-fold over the background. Plotting of mutagenicity data (i.e., selected data pertaining to expression times where maximal mutagenic effects were found) for the three exposure routes against blood dose as common denominator indicated that, at equal blood doses, acute i.p. exposure led to higher observed MFs than drinking water treatment, which was more mutagenic than exposure via inhalation. In the injection experiments, there was evidence for a saturation of detoxification processes at the highest doses. This was not seen after subchronic administration of EO. The resulting HPRT mutagenicity data suggest that EO is a relatively weak mutagen in T-lymphocytes of rats following exposure(s) by i.p. injection, in drinking water or by inhalation. 相似文献

Background
The feasibility of drug monitoring of serum concentrations of morphine, morphine-6-glucuronide (M6G) and morphine-3-glucuronide (M3G) during chronic morphine therapy is not established. One important factor relevant to drug monitoring is to what extent morphine, M6G and M3G serum concentrations fluctuate during stable morphine treatment. 相似文献8.

1. Ingestion of Statfjord A crude oil from the North Sea has no apparent effect on the metabolic rate of ducks (Jenssen, 1989). This may be because this particular oil does not affect plasma concentrations of thyroid hormones and enzyme activities in the mixed function oxidase (MFO) system of ducks. 2. To test this hypothesis, plasma concentrations of thyroid hormones (thyroxine and triiodothyronine), and levels of hepatic cytochrome P-450 and enzyme activities (NADPH cytochrome C reductase and GSH-S-transferase) in the MFO system were measured in domestic ducks (Anas platyrhynchos) which had ingested this crude oil. 3. Daily oral of 5 ml crude oil per kg body weight for 6 consecutive days resulted in a 53% increase in plasma triiodothyronine concentration and a 56% increase in the hepatic cytochrome P-450 level. The changes in these parameters were apparently not sufficient to cause any rise in metabolic heat production. 4. This apparent contradiction is probably because activation of the MFO-system is energetically inexpensive. Also, possible metabolic effects caused by increased plasma-triiodothyronine concentration and activation of the MFO-system may have been masked by an inhibitory effect of the crude oil on mitochondrial electrontransport and coupled phosphorylation. 相似文献
