Cakile maritima is a local oilseed halophyte exhibiting potential for secondary metabolite production. In the present study, plant growth, leaf polyphenol content and antioxidant activity were comparatively analyzed in two C. maritima Tunisian accessions (Jerba and Tabarka, respectively sampled from arid and humid bioclimatic stages) under salt constraint. Three-week-old plants were subjected to 0, 100, and 400 mM NaCl for 28 days under glasshouse conditions. A significant variability in salt response was found between both accessions: while Tabarka growth (shoot biomass, leaf expansion) was significantly restricted at 100 and 400 mM NaCl, compared to the control, Jerba growth increased at 100mM before declining at 400 mM NaCl. The better behaviour of Jerba salt-challenged plants, compared to those of Tabarka, may be related to their higher polyphenol content (1.56- and 1.3-fold the control, at 100 and 400 mM NaCl respectively) and antioxidant activity (smaller IC(50) values for both 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and superoxide scavenging), associated with lower leaf MDA accumulation (ca. -66% of the control at 100mM NaCl). Taken together, our findings suggest that halophytes may be interesting for production of antioxidant compounds, and that the accession-dependent capacity to induce antioxidative mechanisms in response to salt, may result in a corresponding variability for growth sustainability. 相似文献

BackgroundThe management of gastric adenocarcinoma is essentially based on surgery followed by adjuvant treatment. Adjuvant chemotherapy (CT) as well as chemoradiotherapy (CTRT) have proven their effectiveness in survival outcomes compared to surgery alone. However, there is little data comparing the two adjuvant approaches. This study aimed to compare the prognosis and survival outcomes of patients with gastric adenocarcinoma operated and treated by adjuvant radio-chemotherapy or chemotherapyMaterials and methodsWe retrospectively evaluated 80 patients with locally advanced gastric cancer (LGC) who received adjuvant treatment. We compared survival outcomes and patterns of recurrence of 53 patients treated by CTRT and those of 27 patients treated by CT.ResultsAfter a median follow-up of 38.48 months, CTRT resulted in a significant improvement of the 5-year PFS (60.9% vs. 36%, p = 0.03) and the 5-year OS (55.9% vs. 33%, p = 0.015) compared to adjuvant CT. The 5-year OS was significantly increased by adjuvant CTRT (p = 0.046) in patients with lymph node metastasis, and particularly those with advanced pN stage (p = 0.0078) and high lymph node ratio (LNR) exceeding 25% (p = 0.012). Also, there was a significant improvement of the PFS of patients classified pN2–N3 (p = 0.022) with a high LNR (p = 0.018). CTRT was also associated with improved OS and PFS in patients with lymphovascular and perineural invasion (LVI and PNI) compared to chemotherapy.ConclusionThere is a particular survival benefit of adding radiotherapy to chemotherapy in patients with selected criteria such as lymph node involvement, high LNR LVI, and PNI. 相似文献

Background
Bacteriocins are very diverse group of antimicrobial peptides produced by a wide range of bacteria and known for their inhibitory activity against various human and animal pathogens. Although many bacteriocins are now well characterized, much information is still missing or is unavailable to potential users. The assembly of such information in one central resource such as a database would therefore be of great benefit to the exploitation of these bioactive molecules in the present context of increasing antibiotic resistance and natural bio-preservation need. 相似文献6.

In human atrial trabeculae, we examined the effects of doxorubicin on the isometric force of contraction, mitochondrial respiration, membrane potential and calcium retention capacity. Compared with untreated controls, doxorubicin induced contractile dysfunction and depression of mitochondrial respiration. Mitochondria isolated from doxorubicin-treated human atrial trabeculae displayed reduced transmembrane potential and calcium retention capacity. Cyclosporine A, a mitochondrial membrane transition pore opening blocker, prevented mitochondrial dysfunction and impaired contractile performance induced by doxorubicin. The study suggests that a mitochondrial membrane transition pore opening is involved in the development of doxorubicin cardiotoxicity in human hearts. 相似文献

Recently, we isolated and reported the antagonism of Paenibacillus polymyxa JB05-01-1 (P. polymyxa JB05-01-1) against Gram-negative bacteria. Here, we provide more insights and attribute the abovementioned antagonism to
the production of colistins A and B, which were purified by Amberlite column exchange, C18 column hydrophobicity, superdex
75 16/60 gel filtration chromatography connected to fast protein liquid chromatography and identified by MALDI TOF/TOF, and
manual nanospray analysis. The amount of colistin A and colistin B recovered from 500 ml of culture supernatant was about
0.05 mg. The specific activity and the average recovery of the eluted substances were 5,120 AU/mg and 1.1%, respectively.
The minimal inhibitory concentrations of the purified colistins against Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Pseudomonas fluorescens LRC R73 were 0.13 and 0.62 μg/ml, respectively. 相似文献

Pemphigus is an autoimmune disorder resulting from the interaction between autoantibodies and desmoglein. Oxidative stress seems to be responsible for the onset/aggravation of many human diseases. Actually, it is considered as one of the several factors for the etiopathogenesis of pemphigus. The present study aims to evaluate the oxidative state in the sera of pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus patients by assessing lipid peroxidation, proteins oxidation, and antioxidant enzyme activity. This study included 36 pemphigus vulgaris and 42 pemphigus foliaceus patients as well as a group of controls consisting of 78 healthy volunteers. Malondialdehyde levels (p?<?0.001) and catalase activity (p?<?0.001) are higher in both groups of patients than in the control group. The two groups of patients showed a nonsignificant decrease in the thiol groups compared with the healthy one. A nonsignificant difference was shown between pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus patients, except for the catalase which shows an increase in the pemphigus vulgaris group. We have also found significant correlations between serum oxidative stress marker levels and serum anti-desmoglein antibody levels in the two pemphigus groups. These findings underline the implication of oxidative stress in the physiopathology of pemphigus by the increase in the autoantibodies?? reactivity. 相似文献

Influence of biological, environmental and technical factors on phenolic content and antioxidant activities of Tunisian halophytes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Halophyte ability to withstand salt-triggered oxidative stress is governed by multiple biochemical mechanisms that facilitate retention and/or acquisition of water, protect chloroplast functioning, and maintain ion homeostasis. Most essential traits include the synthesis of osmolytes, specific proteins, and antioxidant molecules. This might explain the utilization of some halophytes as traditional medicinal and dietary plants. The present study aimed at assessing the phenolic content and antioxidant activities of some Tunisian halophytes (Cakile maritima, Limoniastrum monopetalum, Mesembryanthemum crystallinum, M. edule, Salsola kali, and Tamarix gallica), depending on biological (species, organ and developmental stage), environmental, and technical (extraction solvent) factors. The total polyphenol contents and antioxidant activities (DPPH and superoxide radicals scavenging activities, and iron chelating and reducing powers) were strongly affected by the above-cited factors. Such variability might be of great importance in terms of valorising these halophytes as a source of naturally secondary metabolites, and the methods for phenolic and antioxidant production. 相似文献
