The root extract of Nauclea xanthoxylon (A.Chev.) Aubrév. displayed significant 50 % inhibition concentration (IC50s) of 0.57 and 1.26 μg/mL against chloroquine resistant and sensitive Plasmodium falciparum (Pf) Dd2 and 3D7 strains, respectively. Bio-guided fractionation led to an ethyl acetate fraction with IC50s of 2.68 and 1.85 μg/mL and subsequently, to the new quinovic acid saponin named xanthoxyloside ( 1 ) with IC50s of 0.33 and 1.30 μM, respectively against the tested strains. Further compounds obtained from ethyl acetate and hexane fractions were the known clethric acid ( 2 ), ursolic acid ( 3 ), quafrinoic acid ( 4 ), quinovic acid ( 5 ), quinovic acid 3-O-β-D-fucopyranoside ( 6 ), oleanolic acid ( 7 ), oleanolic acid 3-acetate ( 8 ), friedelin ( 9 ), β-sitosterol ( 10a ), stigmasterol ( 10b ) and stigmasterol 3-O-β-D-glucopyranoside ( 11 ). Their structures were characterised with the aid of comprehensive spectroscopic methods (1 and 2D NMR, Mass). Bio-assays were performed using nucleic acid gel stain (SYBR green I)-based fluorescence assay with chloroquine as reference. Extracts and compounds exhibited good selectivity indices (SIs) of >10. Significant antiplasmodial activities measured for the crude extract, the ethyl acetate fraction and xanthoxyloside ( 1 ) from that fraction can justify the use of the root of N. xanthoxylon in ethnomedicine to treat malaria. 相似文献

Genetic variation at the Major Histocompatibility Complex locus DQ beta was
analyzed in 233 beluga whales (Delphinapterus leucas) from seven
populations: St. Lawrence Estuary, eastern Beaufort Sea, eastern Chukchi
Sea, western Hudson Bay, eastern Hudson Bay, southeastern Baffin Island,
and High Arctic and in 12 narwhals (Monodon monoceros) sympatric with the
High Arctic beluga population. Variation was assessed by amplification of
the exon coding for the peptide binding region via the polymerase chain
reaction, followed by either cloning and DNA sequencing or single-stranded
conformation polymorphism analysis. Five alleles were found across the
beluga populations and one in the narwhal. Pairwise comparisons of these
alleles showed a 5:1 ratio of nonsynonymous to synonymous substitutions per
site leading to eight amino acid differences, five of which were
nonconservative substitutions, centered around positions previously shown
to be important for peptide binding. Although the amount of allelic
variation is low when compared with terrestrial mammals, the nature of the
substitutions in the peptide binding sites indicates an important role for
the DQ beta locus in the cellular immune response of beluga whales.
Comparisons of allele frequencies among populations show the High Arctic
population to be different (P < or = .005) from the other beluga
populations surveyed. In these other populations an allele, Dele-DQ
beta*0101-2, was found in 98% of the animals, while in the High Arctic it
was found in only 52% of the animals. Two other alleles were found at high
frequencies in the High Arctic population, one being very similar to the
single allele found in narwhal.

Elongation factor-1 alpha occurs as two copies in bees: implications for phylogenetic analysis of EF-1 alpha sequences in insects 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
We report the complete sequence of a paralogous copy of elongation factor-1
alpha (EF-1 alpha) in the honeybee, Apis mellifera (Hymenoptera: Apidae).
This copy differs from a previously described copy in the positions of five
introns and in 25% of the nucleotide sites in the coding regions. The
existence of two paralogous copies of EF-1 alpha in Drosophila and Apis
suggests that two copies of EF-1 alpha may be widespread in the
holometabolous insect orders. To distinguish between a single, ancient gene
duplication and parallel, independent fly and bee gene duplications, we
performed a phylogenetic analysis of hexapod EF-1 alpha sequences.
Unweighted parsimony analysis of nucleotide sequences suggests an ancient
gene duplication event, whereas weighted parsimony analysis of nucleotides
and unweighted parsimony analysis of amino acids suggests the contrary:
that EF-1 alpha underwent parallel gene duplications in the Diptera and the
Hymenoptera. The hypothesis of parallel gene duplication is supported both
by congruence among nucleotide and amino acid data sets and by
topology-dependent permutation tail probability (T-PTP) tests. The
resulting tree topologies are also congruent with current views on the
relationships among the holometabolous orders included in this study
(Diptera, Hymenoptera, and Lepidoptera). More sequences, from diverse
orders of holometabolous insects, will be needed to more accurately assess
the historical patterns of gene duplication in EF-1 alpha.

This study continues analysis from a companion paper on over 350,000 insured Swedish dogs up to 10 years of age contributing
to more than one million dog-years at risk during 1995–2000. The age patterns for total and diagnostic mortality and for general
causes of death (trauma, tumour, locomotor, heart and neurological) are presented for numerous breeds. Survival estimates
at five, eight and 10 years of age are calculated. Survival to 10 years of age was 75% or more in Labrador and golden retrievers,
miniature and toy poodles and miniature dachshunds and lowest in Irish wolfhounds (91% dead by 10 years). Multivariable analysis
was used to estimate the relative risk for general and more specific causes of death between breeds accounting for gender
and age effects, including two-way interactions. Older females had tumour as a designated cause of death more often than males
in most breeds, but not in the Bernese mountain dog. Information presented in this and the companion paper inform our understanding
of the population level burden of disease, and support decision-making at the population and individual level about health
promotion efforts and treatment and prognosis of disease events. 相似文献

An extensive phytochemical study of the aerial parts of Vernonia guineensis Benth. (Asteraceae) led to the isolation of a new flavone, vernoguinoflavone and a naturally isolated glycerol ester, eicosanoic acid 2‐hydroxy‐1,3‐propanediyl ester, together with eighteen known secondary metabolites including quercetin, luteolin, vernopicrin, vernomelitensin, β‐amyrin, oleanolic acid, ursolic acid, lupeol, betulinic acid, β‐carotene, a mixture of stigmasterol and β‐sitosterol, β‐sitosterol‐3‐O‐β‐D‐glucoside, 2,3‐dihydroxypropyl heptacosanoate, pentacosanoic acid, docosan‐1‐ol, tritriacontan‐1‐ol, and heptatriacontan‐1‐ol. Eleven compounds are reported herein for the first time from this species. The structures of these compounds were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analyses, particularly 1D and 2D NMR, and HR‐ESI‐MS and by comparison of their data with those reported in the literature. The crude extract, fractions and some isolated compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against Gram‐negative bacteria: Escherichia coli (ATCC 25922), Shigella flexineri (NR 518), Salmonella muenchen, Salmonella typhimurium and Salmonella typhi (ATCC 19430). All the tested compounds demonstrated inhibitory activities against the tested enteric bacteria with MIC values ranging from 3.12 to 100 μg/ml. Three flavonoids isolated from the most active fraction demonstrated the best bioactivities against Escherichia coli, Salmonella muenchen and Salmonella typhimurium with MIC values ranging from 3.12 to 25 μg/mL. 相似文献

Preliminary screening of extracts of the leaves and stems of four Turraea plant species (Meliaceae) on second instar larvae of Tuta absoluta (Meyrick) (Lepidoptera: Gelechiidae) showed that the methanolic extract of Turraea abyssinica leaves possess good toxic potential with LD50 of 270.7 ppm. Fractionation of this extract led to isolation of a new limonoid derivative, 12α‐diacetoxywalsuranolide (1) and three other known limonoids [1α,7α,12α‐triacetoxy‐4α‐carbomethoxy‐11β‐hydroxy‐14β,15β‐epoxyhavanensin (2), 11‐epi‐21‐hydroxytoonacilide (3), 11β,12α‐diacetoxycedrelone (4)]. The structures of the compounds were established by IR, UV, mass spectrometry and 1D/2D NMR analyses, and in the case of the known compounds, also by comparison with reported data. All the isolates were tested for their larvicidal activities at different dose range against second instar larvae of T. absoluta. They were found to be more active (with LD50 < 7.0 ppm) compared to the reference compound azadirachtin (LD50 value of 7.8 ppm). 相似文献

Background
Movement of cells, either as amoeboid individuals or in organised groups, is a key feature of organ formation. Both modes of migration occur during Drosophila embryonic gonad development, which therefore provides a paradigm for understanding the contribution of these processes to organ morphogenesis. Gonads of Drosophila are formed from three distinct cell types: primordial germ cells (PGCs), somatic gonadal precursors (SGPs), and in males, male-specific somatic gonadal precursors (msSGPs). These originate in distinct locations and migrate to associate in two intermingled clusters which then compact to form the spherical primitive gonads. PGC movements are well studied, but much less is known of the migratory events and other interactions undergone by their somatic partners. These appear to move in organised groups like, for example, lateral line cells in zebra fish or Drosophila ovarian border cells. 相似文献9.

Three endiandric acid derivatives, beilschmiedic acids A, B and C were isolated from the stem bark of Beilschmiedia anacardioides together with the known β-sitosterol. Their structures were established by means of modern spectroscopic techniques. The relative configuration of compound 1 was determined by single crystal X-ray analysis. The antibacterial activities of compounds A,B,C were evaluated in vitro against five strains of microbes. Compound C showed strong activity against Bacillus subtilis, Micrococcus luteus and Streptococcus faecalis (MICs below 23 μM). This Compound was more active than the reference antibiotic ampicillin against B. subtilis and M. luteus. 相似文献
