At present, wine is generally produced using Saccharomyces yeast followed by Oenococus bacteria to complete malolactic fermentation. This method has some unsolved problems, such as the management of highly acidic musts and the production of potentially toxic products including biogenic amines and ethyl carbamate. Here we explore the potential of the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe to solve these problems. We characterise an extensive worldwide collection of S. pombe strains according to classic biochemical parameters of oenological interest. We identify three genetically different S. pombe strains that appear suitable for winemaking. These strains compare favourably to standard Saccharomyces cerevisiae winemaking strains, in that they perform effective malic acid deacidification and significantly reduce levels of biogenic amines and ethyl carbamate precursors without the need for any secondary bacterial malolactic fermentation. These findings indicate that the use of certain S. pombe strains could be advantageous for winemaking in regions where malic acid is problematic, and these strains also show superior performance with respect to food safety. 相似文献

Tlx (Hox11) genes are orphan homeobox genes that play critical roles in the regulation of early developmental processes in vertebrates. Here, we report the identification and expression patterns of three members of the zebrafish Tlx family. These genes share similar, but not identical, expression patterns with other vertebrate Tlx-1 and Tlx-3 genes. Tlx-1 is expressed early in the developing hindbrain and pharyngeal arches, and later in the putative splenic primordium. However, unlike its orthologues, zebrafish Tlx-1 is not expressed in the cranial sensory ganglia or spinal cord. Two homologues of Tlx-3 were identified: Tlx-3a and Tlx-3b, which are both expressed in discrete regions of the developing nervous system, including the cranial sensory ganglia and Rohon-Beard neurons. However, only Tlx-3a is expressed in the statoacoustic cranial ganglia, enteric neurons and non-neural tissues such as the fin bud and pharyngeal arches and Tlx-3b is only expressed in the dorsal root ganglia. 相似文献

Retro-differentiation of liver parenchyma during neoplastic processes is characterized by the expression of tumor antigens, such as alpha-fetoprotein and the placental isoenzyme of glutathione-S-transferase (GST-P). To investigate whether this may also affect a typical liver function such as bile acid secretion was the aim of this work. Rat hepatocarcinogenesis was induced by diethylnitrosamine (i.p., 200 mg/Kg body weight at day 0) and promoted by two-thirds partial hepatectomy (at day 21) plus 2-acetamidofluorene administration (50 mg/Kg body weight, subcutaneously, twice a week from day 14 to day 35). In order to carry out planimetric measurements of neoplastic tissue after immunohistochemical staining, a novel monoclonal antibody (MAb 14.1.3) against GST-P with no cross-reactivity against the major liver isoform of GST (GST-H) was raised. Analysis of total biliary bile acid output using the 3alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase method indicated that a significant reduction (-26%) occurred during the formation of GST-P-positive foci (12 wk). This was restored to normal values during adenoma formation (16-20 wk), but decreased again during carcinoma transformation (32 wk). These changes were not parallel to that observed in bile flow, which was progressively but slightly decreased throughout the whole period under study. HPLC analysis of bile samples collected for 1 h at different time points during hepatocarcinogenesis revealed that in contrast to what happens during cholestatic disease, a continuous and progressive increase in the cholic acid-to-chenodeoxycholic acid ratio (from 4.4+/-0.5 in control animals to 15.1+/-1.9 in rats with hepatocellular carcinoma) occurs. A significant and transient increase at 16 wk (+120%) in the proportion of bile acids amidated with glycine as compared to those conjugated with taurine was also observed. These results indicate that the mechanisms accounting for the secretion of major bile acids are modified differently at various steps of rat liver tumor development. 相似文献

Evidence of non-hibernation in brown bears Ursus arctos Linnaeus, 1758 on the Iberian Peninsula has existed since the Middle
Ages. We systematically monitored brown bears in the Cantabrian Mountains (Northern Spain) by recording tracks and sightings
from 1998 to 2007 to document hibernation behaviour. Our results indicate that females with yearlings and solitary yearlings
were more active in winter than bears over two years old. Intensive snow tracking and direct observations of five family groups
indicated that they travelled, fed and defecated in winter, which are activities not compatible with the physiological state
of hibernation. Also, based on tracking data, the maximum period between two consecutive locations of active family groups
in winter was less than that needed by bears to emerge from a state of hibernation (6 days). We conclude that the family groups
which we monitored in winter did not hibernate. 相似文献

Aims: The formation of ethylphenols in wines, a consequence of Dekkera/Brettanomyces metabolism, can affect their quality. The main aims of this work were to further our knowledge of Dekkera/Brettanomyces with respect to ethylphenol production, and to develop a methodology for detecting this spoilage yeast and for estimating its population size in wines using differential-selective media and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
Methods and Results: This work examines the reduction of p -coumaric acid and the formation of 4-vinylphenol and 4-ethylphenol (recorded by HPLC-DAD) in a prepared medium because of the activities of different yeast species and populations. A regression model was constructed for estimating the population of Dekkera/Brettanomyces at the beginning of fermentation via the conversion of hydroxycinnamic acids into ethylphenols.
Conclusions: The proposed methodology allows the populations of Dekkera/Brettanomyces at the beginning of fermentation to be estimated in problem wines. Moreover, it avoids false positives because of yeasts resistant to the effects of the selective elements of the medium.
Significance and Impact of the Study: This may help prevent the appearance of organoleptic anomalies in wines at the winery level. 相似文献

Although brown bears (Ursus arctos) are known to be major predators of ungulates in North America and Northern Europe, there is little documentation regarding
bear predation on wild ungulates in Southern Europe. We describe search, detection, killing and prey consumption behaviour
by brown bears during seven attacks on <1-month roe deer, red deer and chamois fawns in spring in the Cantabrian Mountains,
north-western Spain. As soon as the bears detected a fawn by their smell or their mother's presence, they switched from routine
foraging on plants and insects to an intensive search for the fawns, mainly using smell to comb a 0.5–1 ha area for 15–45 min.
They killed the fawns either while the latter were resting or after a brief chase. The bears usually took their prey to dense
vegetation, consuming it immediately. In four cases, 5-month-old cubs accompanying the female did not participate in the hunt.
We also document the apparently non-predatory killing of a 40-kg wild boar by a female bear with cubs surprised by a sudden
encounter. They did not eat the boar after the attack. 相似文献

Recent studies have shown aberrant expression of SOX11 in various types of aggressive B-cell neoplasms. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms leading to such deregulation, we performed a comprehensive SOX11 gene expression and epigenetic study in stem cells, normal hematopoietic cells and different lymphoid neoplasms. We observed that SOX11 expression is associated with unmethylated DNA and presence of activating histone marks (H3K9/14Ac and H3K4me3) in embryonic stem cells and some aggressive B-cell neoplasms. In contrast, adult stem cells, normal hematopoietic cells and other lymphoid neoplasms do not express SOX11. Such repression was associated with silencing histone marks H3K9me2 and H3K27me3. The SOX11 promoter of non-malignant cells was consistently unmethylated whereas lymphoid neoplasms with silenced SOX11 tended to acquire DNA hypermethylation. SOX11 silencing in cell lines was reversed by the histone deacetylase inhibitor SAHA but not by the DNA methyltransferase inhibitor AZA. These data indicate that, although DNA hypermethylation of SOX11 is frequent in lymphoid neoplasms, it seems to be functionally inert, as SOX11 is already silenced in the hematopoietic system. In contrast, the pathogenic role of SOX11 is associated with its de novo expression in some aggressive lymphoid malignancies, which is mediated by a shift from inactivating to activating histone modifications. 相似文献

The effects of cyclosporine A (CyA) treatment on the hepatic content and biliary output of reduced (GSH) and oxidized (GSSG) glutathione and lipid peroxidation in the liver, and the ability of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe) to antagonize the CyA-induced alterations were studied in male Wistar rats. To evaluate the efficacy of SAMe, three CyA and SAMe protocols were used: cotreatment with SAMe plus CyA, pretreatment with SAMe before starting cotreatment, and post-treatment with SAMe after beginning treatment with CyA alone. CyA treatment for one and four weeks depleted liver GSH, decreased the GSH/GSSG ratio and significantly reduced GSH and GSSG biliary concentrations and secretion rates. Additionally, long-term treatment enhanced lipid peroxidation. By contrast, when the rats were treated with CyA plus SAMe using any of the administration protocols, SAMe was seen to be efficient in antagonizing the GSH hepatic depletion, the changes in hepatic GSH/GSSG ratio and the increase induced by CyA in lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, SAMe also abolished the effects of CyA on the biliary secretion rates of GSH and GSSG. The efficacy of SAMe was similar, regardless of the administration protocols used. In conclusion, our results clearly demonstrate that SAMe is good for preventing, antagonizing and reversing the CyA-induced alterations in the hepatobiliary homeostasis of glutathione. 相似文献
