Abstract Photoproduction of hydrogen, nitrogenase activity (acetylene reduction) and hydrogenase activity (methylene blue dye reduction) were studied in free and alginate immobilized whole cells of a purple non-sulfur photosynthetic bacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides O.U. 001. Four-fold increase in hydrogen production, two-fold increase in nitrogenase activity and 1.2-fold increase in the hydrogenase activity were observed in immobilized cells compared to free cells. Effect of various inhibitors (CO and C2 H2 ) and electron donor (H2 ) on the above three functions by free and immobilized cells has also been studied. 相似文献

Rainbow lizards (Agama agama) are common in suburban areas throughout Africa, and have an opportunistic foraging strategy, with arthropods being the main prey source. In a coastal resort in southern Togo, West Africa, several individuals in a population were observed while feeding regularly upon non-natural human-made food (pizza) and showing a clear preference for a given type of food versus others that were offered (‘four cheeses’ being the preferred one). The fact that all monitored individuals fed upon a same type of pizza suggests that they may have some chemical cues attracting them. 相似文献

Mosquitoes are important vectors that transmit pathogens to human and other vertebrates. Each mosquito species has specific ecological requirements and bionomic traits that impact human exposure to mosquito bites, and hence disease transmission and vector control. A study of human biting mosquitoes and their bionomic characteristics was conducted in West Sumba and Southwest Sumba Districts, Nusa Tenggara Timur Province, Indonesia from May 2015 to April 2018. Biweekly human landing catches (HLC) of night biting mosquitoes both indoors and outdoors caught a total of 73,507 mosquito specimens (59.7% non-Anopheles, 40.3% Anopheles). A minimum of 22 Culicinae species belonging to four genera (Aedes, Armigeres, Culex, Mansonia), and 13 Anophelinae species were identified. Culex quinquefasciatus was the dominant Culicinae species, Anopheles aconitus was the principal Anopheles species inland, while An. sundaicus was dominant closer to the coast. The overall human biting rate (HBR) was 10.548 bites per person per night (bpn) indoors and 10.551 bpn outdoors. Mosquitoes biting rates were slightly higher indoors for all genera with the exception of Anopheles, where biting rates were slightly higher outdoors. Diurnal and crepuscular Aedes and Armigeres demonstrated declining biting rates throughout the night while Culex and Anopheles biting rates peaked before midnight and then declined. Both anopheline and non-anopheline populations did not have a significant association with temperature (p = 0.3 and 0.88 respectively), or rainfall (p = 0.13 and 0.57 respectively). The point distribution of HBR and seasonal variables did not have a linear correlation. Data demonstrated similar mosquito–human interactions occurring outdoors and indoors and during early parts of the night implying both indoor and outdoor disease transmission potential in the area–pointing to the need for interventions in both spaces. Integrated vector analysis frameworks may enable better surveillance, monitoring and evaluation strategies for multiple diseases. 相似文献

-N-oxalyl-l-,-diaminopropionic acid (l-ODAP) toxicity has been associated with lathyrism; a spastic paraparesis caused by excessive dietary intake of the pulse Lathyrus sativus. We investigated the effect of Lathyrus neurotoxin l-ODAP on protein kinase C (PKC) activity under in vitro conditions. l-ODAP activated phosphorylation activity of purified chick brain PKC. Both lysine-rich (histone III-S) and arginine-rich (protamine sulfate) substrate phosphorylation was enhanced in the presence of l-ODAP. The activation is concentration dependent, and maximal activation is observed at 100 M concentration. Protamine sulfate phosphorylation was enhanced by 47%, whereas histone III-S phosphorylation was enhanced by 50% over PS/PDBu/Ca2+ dependent activity. The nontoxic d-isomer (d-ODAP) did not affect both histone III-S and protamine sulfate phosphorylation activity. These results indicate that l-ODAP taken up by neuronal cells could also contribute to PKC activation and so be associated with toxicity. 相似文献

Mast cells require KIT receptor tyrosine kinase signaling for development and survival. Here, we report that SH2 domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) signaling downstream of KIT is essential for mast cell survival and homeostasis in mice. Using a novel mouse model with shp2 deletion within mature mast cells (MC-shp2 knockout [KO]), we find that SHP2 is required for the homeostasis of connective tissue mast cells. Consistently with the loss of skin mast cells, MC-shp2 KO mice fail to mount a passive late-phase cutaneous anaphylaxis response. To better define the phenotype of shp2-deficient mast cells, we used an inducible shp2 knockout approach in bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) or cultured peritoneal mast cells and found that SHP2 promotes mast cell survival. We show that SHP2 promotes KIT signaling to extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) mitogen-activated protein kinase and downregulation of the proapoptotic protein Bim in BMMCs. Also, SHP2-deficient BMMCs failed to repopulate mast cells in mast cell-deficient mice. Silencing of Bim partially rescued survival defects in shp2-deficient BMMCs, consistent with the importance of a KIT → SHP2 → Ras/ERK pathway in suppressing Bim and promoting mast cell survival. Thus, SHP2 is a key node in a mast cell survival pathway and a new potential therapeutic target in diseases involving mast cells. 相似文献

A new series of betulinic acid derivatives have been synthesized by introducing heterocyclic ring between C-2 and C-3 positions of betulinic acid. Further modifications were also carried out by reduction of C-20(29) unsaturated bond and substitution of C-28 carboxyl group by ester and amide linkage to enhance the selectivity. Compound 11 resulted in IC(50) of 2.44, 2.5, and 2.7 microg/ml on MIAPaCa, PA-1, and SW620 cancer cell lines, respectively. Compound 38 resulted in IC(50) of 0.67 microg/ml on MIAPaCa cell line. 相似文献
