The activities of green cell-free extracts of spinach leavesin performing photochemical transphosphorylation, photosyntheticphosphorylation, the HILL reaction and the light-induced formationof the endogenous reducing substance (ascorbic acid) were followedin parallel during the growth process of the plant. There wasa certain parallelism between the development of the activitiesof photochemical transphosphorylation, of photo-synthetic phosphorylationand of the HILL reaction, activities being low in the earlierstage of growth, reaching a maximum just before efflorescence,and showing thereafter a more or less sharp decline. The activityin the light-induced formation of endogenous reducing substancewas undetectable for the first 35 day-period of growth, reacheda maximum about one week earlier than the other three activities,and again disappeared after 60 days of growth.

The Clara cell protein (CC16) is a small and readily diffusible protein of 16kDa secreted by bronchiolar Clara cells in the distal airspaces. These epithelial cells are altered in several pulmonary pathological processes induced by various lung toxicants. In the search for a new biomarker of asbestos-induced lung impairment, we used a sensitive immunoassay to determine the levels of CC16 in bronchoalveolar fluid (BALF) and serum of subjects exposed to asbestos compared with a group of healthy controls. In the BALF of asbestos-exposed subjects there was an insignificant trend towards CC16 elevation compared with controls, with a (mean ±SD of 0.81 ±0.65mg l-1 for asbestos-exposed subjects (n = 23) versus 0.39 ±0.19mg l-1 for controls (n = 11) (p = 0.09). In serum, CC16 concentration was significantly increased among asbestos-exposed subjects, with values of 27.2 ±24.0 µg l-1 for asbestos-exposed subjects (n = 34) versus 16.1 ±7.6 µg l-1 for controls (n = 34) (p = 0.01). Regarding the effects of smoking, there were significant differences between generally lower CC16 levels in serum and BALF (p = 0.05 and 0.001, respectively) of smokers compared with the higher levels in non-smokers. Serum CC16 levels positively correlated with those in BALF, which is consistent with a diffusional transfer of CC16 from the bronchoalveolar space into the serum. No association, however, emerged between the levels of CC16 in serum or BALF and either the duration of asbestos exposure or the severity of the lung impairment as assessed by chest X-ray. These findings suggest that exposure to asbestos elicits early changes in the local and, importantly, also the systemic levels of CC16. This pneumoprotein therefore appears as a promising non-invasive biomarker of asbestos-induced lung injury and occupational disease in both smoking and non-smoking exposed subjects. 相似文献

We estimate and describe the incidence rates, mortality, and cost of CAP (community-acquired pneumonia), in both inpatient and outpatient settings, in the Czech Republic (CZ), Slovakia (SK), Poland (PL), and Hungary (HU). A retrospective analysis was conducted on administrative data from the health ministry and insurance reimbursement claims with a primary diagnosis of pneumonia in 2009 to determine hospitalization rates, costs, and mortality in adults ≥50 years of age. Patient chart reviews were conducted to estimate the number of outpatient cases. Among all adults ≥50 years, the incidence of hospitalized CAP per 100,000 person years was: 456.6 (CZ), 504.6 (SK), 363.9 (PL), and 845.3 (HU). The average fatality rate for all adults ≥50 is 19.1%, and for each country; 21.7% (CZ), 20.9% (SK), 18.6% (PL), 17.8% (HU). Incidence, fatality, and likelihood of hospitalization increased with advancing age. Total healthcare costs of CAP in EUR was 12,579,543 (CZ); 9,160,774 (SK); 22,409,085 (PL); and 18,298,449 (HU); with hospitalization representing over 90% of the direct costs of treatment. The burden of CAP increases with advancing age in four CEE countries, with hospitalizations driving the costs of CAP upwards in the elderly population. Mortality rates are generally higher than reported in Western EU countries. 相似文献

2016, was the 100 years anniversary from launching of the first industrial acetone-butanol-ethanol (ABE) microbial production process. Despite this long period and also revival of scientific interest in this fermentative process over the last 20 years, solventogenic clostridia, mainly Clostridium acetobutylicum, Clostridium beijerinckii, Clostridium saccharoperbutylacetonicum and Clostridium pasteurianum, still have most of their secrets. One such poorly understood mechanism is butanol tolerance, which seems to be one of the most significant bottlenecks obstructing industrial exploitation of the process because the maximum achievable butanol concentration is only about 21 g/L. This review describes all the known cellular responses elicited by butanol, such as modifications of cell membrane and cell wall, formation of stress proteins, extrusion of butanol by efflux pumps, response of regulatory pathways, and also maps both random and targeted mutations resulting in high butanol production phenotypes. As progress in the field is inseparably associated with emerging methods, enabling a deeper understanding of butanol tolerance and production, progress in these methods, including genome mining, RNA sequencing and constructing of genome scale models are also reviewed. In conclusion, a comparative analysis of both phenomena is presented and a theoretical relationship is described between butanol tolerance/high production and common features including efflux pump formation/activity, stress protein production, membrane modifications and biofilm growth. 相似文献

Further studies on the role of cell-wall-degrading enzymes in cell-wall loosening in oat coleoptiles
A fungal endo-ß-l,3-glucanase was compared with afungal exo-ß-1,3-glucanase with respect to their effectson elongation and cell-wall extensibility in oat coleoptilesegments. The exo-enzyme enhanced elongation and extensibilityof the cell wall. Its effect was not additive to the effectof indole-3-acetic acid when given together with the latter,at least during 3 hr of incubation. Endo-glucanase showed nosignificant effect on elongation and no interaction with theexo-enzyme. Auxin and exo-glucanase increased extensibilityof the cell wall. The exo-glucanase was separated by isoelectricfocusing. The two fractions which were separated and showedglucanase activity induced elongation and cell wall loosening.
