A novel near-infrared (NIR) cyanine 1-(epsilon-succinimidyl-hexanoate)-1'-methyl-3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-indocarbocyanine-5,5'-disulfonate potassium (MeCy5-OSu) has been developed in our laboratory. Simultaneous determination of MeCy5-OSu-derivatized polyamines spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd), cadaverine (Cad), and putrescine (Put) based on the separation by CE combined with diode LIF detection has been accomplished. The highest derivatization efficiency was achieved in 0.2 mol/L borate buffer (pH 8.8) for 20 min at 25 degrees C. Polyamine derivatives were separated within 14 min in the phosphate running buffer (pH 3) containing 50 mmol/L phosphoric acid, 40 mmol/L SDS, and 35% methanol v/v. Linearity of response was obtained in the range of 10-200 nmol/L. The detection limits (S/N = 3) for Spm, Spd, Cad, and Put were 0.8, 1, 3, and 2 nmol/L, respectively. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of polyamines in erythrocytes of two healthy persons and one cancer patient. Average recoveries for erythrocyte samples were 93.6-106% and coefficients of variation ranged from 1.8 to 5.4%. The analysis of polyamines in erythrocytes can be used for studying the relationship between their changes and the carcinogenesis process involved in erythrocytes.  相似文献

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) with tris(2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) (Ru(bpy)3(2+)) electrochemiluminescence (ECL) detection technique was developed for the analysis of four polyamines (putrescine (Put), cadaverine (Cad), spermidine (Spd), and spermine (Spm)) analysis. The four polyamines contain different amine groups, which have different ECL activity. There are several parameters which influence the resolution and ECL peak intensities, including the buffer pH and concentrations, separation voltage, sample injection, electrode materials, and Ru(bpy)3(2+) concentrations. Polyamines are separated by capillary zone electrophoresis in an uncoated fused-silica capillary (50 cmx25 micro m (ID) filled with acidic phosphate buffer (200 mmol/L phosphate, pH 2.0) - 1mol/L phosphoric acid (9:1 v/v) and a separation voltage of 5 kV (25 micro A), with end-column Ru(bpy)3(2+) ECL detection. A 5 mmol/L Ru(bpy)3(2+) solution plus 200 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH 11.0) is added into the reagent reservoir. The calibration curve is linear over a concentration range of two or three orders of magnitude for the polyamines. The analysis time is less than 25 min. Detection limits for Put and Cad are 1.9x10(-7) mol/L and 7.6x10(-9) mol/L for Spd and Spm, respectively. Intraday and interday relative standard deviations of ECL peak intensities are less than 8%. The main advantages of this CE-ECL detection technique for polyamines analysis presented herein are the omission of chemical derivatization of the analytes and the high selectivity.  相似文献

Contribution of exogenous polyamines (PAs) and polyamine-inhibitors on plantlet regeneration patterns of banana (cv. Nanjanagudu Rasabale-AAB) was studied and the performance of regenerated shoots in temporary immersion system was evaluated. The rhizome explants (without shoot bud) of in vitro shoots produced a mixture of embryogenic and nonembryogenic calli on modified MS medium. The analyses of endogenous pools of polyamines showed higher levels of PAs in embryogenic than in nonembryogenic calli. Supplementation of various levels of (10-50 microM) spermine (Spm), spermidine (Spd), and putrescine (Put) to cultures with secondary embryogenesis showed that about 50% of embryogenic calli rapidly produced secondary embryos only in the presence 40 microM Spm but not in other treatments. The crucial role of Spm was further confirmed by the use of 0.1 mM each of alpha-DL-Difluromethylornithine and alpha-DL-Difluromethylarginine along with Spm where the presence of inhibitors concomitantly inhibited the secondary embryogenesis. The shoots obtained from the embryogenic cultures were checked for their performance on solid medium (SM) and partial immersion system (PIS). The rate of shoot multiplication was higher in PIS than in SM throughout 6 weeks culture period. Uniformity in elongation of all the shoot buds was observed in PIS but not in SM. Evaluation for the acclimatization, survival under greenhouse conditions revealed the better performance of PIS-derived plants than those from SM.  相似文献

A capillary gas chromatographic method is described for the determination of polyamines (putrescine, spermidine and spermine) in the urine of normal human and cancer patients. Morning urine after acid hydrolysis is cleaned up on a silica gel column and derivatized with trifluoroacetic-anhydride. Creatinine in human urine is used as internal standard. Recoveries of polyamines are 96.7% putrescine, 102.6% spermidine (Spd), and 98.7% spermine. SD of the method for Spd is 1.949 +/- 0.041 (micrograms/mg creatinine, mean +/- SD, n = 5). The results show that the mean level of polyamines in cancer patients urine is much higher than that in normal human urine. The mean of total polyamines in the normal human and the cancer patients is 2.01 and 44.74, respectively (g/mg creatinine).  相似文献

The variability in the chemistry of cell wall polysaccharides in pericarp tissue of red-ripe tomato fruit (Solanum lycopersicon Mill.) was characterized by chemical methods and enzymatic degradations coupled to high performance anion exchange chromatography (HPAEC) and mass spectrometry analysis. Large fruited line, Levovil (LEV) carrying introgressed chromosome fragments from a cherry tomato line Cervil (CER) on chromosomes 4 (LC4), 9 (LC9), or on chromosomes 1, 2, 4 and 9 (LCX) and containing quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for texture traits, was studied. In order to differentiate cell wall polysaccharide modifications in the tomato fruit collection by multivariate analysis, chromatograms were corrected for baseline drift and shift of the component elution time using an approach derived from image analysis and mathematical morphology. The baseline was first corrected by using a "moving window" approach while the peak-matching method developed was based upon location of peaks as local maxima within a window of a definite size. The fast chromatographic data preprocessing proposed was a prerequisite for the different chemometric treatments, such as variance and principal component analysis applied herein to the analysis. Applied to the tomato collection, the combined enzymatic degradations and HPAEC analyses revealed that the firm LCX and CER genotypes showed a higher proportion of glucuronoxylans and pectic arabinan side chains while the mealy LC9 genotype demonstrated the highest content of pectic galactan side chains. QTLs on tomato chromosomes 1, 2, 4 and 9 contain important genes controlling glucuronoxylan and pectic neutral side chains biosynthesis and/or metabolism.  相似文献

The stability and characteristics of the ornithine (Orn), lysine (Lys), putrescine (Put), cadaverine (Cad), 1,7-diaminoheptane (Diah), spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) derivatives obtained with the o-phthalaldehyde (OPA)-ethanethiol (ET)-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) reagent has been investigated. The stoichiometry of the introduced, two-step derivatization process has been followed by photodiode array (DAD) and fluorescence (FL) detections, simultaneously, while the composition of derivatives was confirmed by on-line HPLC-electrospray ionization (ESI) MS measurements. Depending on the composition of the OPA reagents, in addition to the secondary amino group-containing Spd and Spm, under common aqueous conditions also Orn and Lys do react with FMOC resulting in derivatives of various compositions. Applying the OPA-ET reagent of increasing methanol (Met) content (38-80%, v/v) the formation of the FMOC group containing Orn and Lys derivatives could be considerably decreased. Optimum elution condition (18 min, including equilibration) was developed for the simultaneous quantitation of Orn, Lys, Put, Cad, Diah, Spd and Spm, in the presence of the rest of protein amino acids. The practical utility of the method was demonstrated by the analysis of mouse tissues. Average reproducibility of quantitations, characterized with the relative standard deviation percentages of fluorescence intensities and UV responses, in order of listing, proved to be 2.1% and 2.1%, respectively.  相似文献

Background

The regulation of lipid biosynthesis is essential in photosynthetic eukaryotic cells. This regulation occurs during the direct synthesis of fatty acids and triacylglycerols (TAGs), as well as during other controlling processes in the main carbon metabolic pathway.

Results

In this study, the mRNA levels of Chlamydomonas citrate synthase (CrCIS) were found to decrease under nitrogen-limited conditions, which suggests suppressed gene expression. Gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) was conducted to determine whether CrCIS suppression affected the carbon flux in TAG biosynthesis. Results showed that the TAG level increased by 169.5%, whereas the CrCIS activities in the corresponding transgenic algae decreased by 16.7% to 37.7%. Moreover, the decrease in CrCIS expression led to the increased expression of TAG biosynthesis-related genes, such as acyl-CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase and phosphatidate phosphatase. Conversely, overexpression of CrCIS gene decreased the TAG level by 45% but increased CrCIS activity by 209% to 266% in transgenic algae.

Conclusions

The regulation of CrCIS gene can indirectly control the lipid content of algal cells. Our findings propose that increasing oil by suppressing CrCIS expression in microalgae is feasible.

This paper reports the first metabolomics study of the impact of new chelates Pt2Spm and Pd2Spm (Spm = Spermine) on human osteosarcoma cellular metabolism, compared to the conventional platinum drugs cisplatin and oxaliplatin, in order to investigate the effects of different metal centers and ligands. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance metabolomics was used to identify meaningful metabolite variations in polar cell extracts collected during exposure to each of the four chelates. Cisplatin and oxaliplatin induced similar metabolic fingerprints of changing metabolite levels (affecting many amino acids, organic acids, nucleotides, choline compounds and other compounds), thus suggesting similar mechanisms of action. For these platinum drugs, a consistent uptake of amino acids is noted, along with an increase in nucleotides and derivatives, namely involved in glycosylation pathways. The Spm chelates elicit a markedly distinct metabolic signature, where inverse features are observed particularly for amino acids and nucleotides. Furthermore, Pd2Spm prompts a weaker response from osteosarcoma cells as compared to its platinum analogue, which is interesting as the palladium chelate exhibits higher cytotoxicity. Putative suggestions are discussed as to the affected cellular pathways and the origins of the distinct responses. This work demonstrates the value of untargeted metabolomics in measuring the response of cancer cells to either conventional or potential new drugs, seeking further understanding (or possible markers) of drug performance at the molecular level.  相似文献

Summary The composition and stability of the following biogenic amine complexes have been investigated: 1,4-diaminobutane(Put), 4-azaoctane-1,8-diamine(Spd), 4,9-diazadodecan-1, 12-diamine(Spm) as well as homologues such as 1,3-diaminopropane(Put3), 4-azaheptane-1, 7-diamine(Spd3,3) and 4,8-diazaundecan-1,11-diamine(Spm3,3,3) with H+, Cu(II), Zn(II), Pb(II) and Mg(II). A potentiometric method was used. The VIS technique enabled the determination of coordination mode in copper/amine systems. It was found that Mg(II) does not form coordination compounds with any of the studied polyamines in solution. An increase in the concentration of ligand and metal was found to result in a stronger tendency towards the formation of protonated compounds accompanied by a decrease in the concentration of hydroxocomplexes. At physiologicalpH (7.4) an increase in the concentration of protonated compounds by approximately 15% was observed within the ligand concentration range from 0.001 mol dm–3 to 0.0001 mol dm–3 at a Cu(II) concentration of 0.000177 mol dm–3.
Untersuchungen zur Komplexbildung von Polyaminen mit H+, Cu(II), Zn(II), Pb(II) und Mg(II) in wäßriger Lösung
Zusammenfassung Anhand einer Analyse von potentiometrischen Daten wurden Zusammensetzung und Beständigkeit folgender biogener Aminkomplexe untersucht: 1,4-Diaminobutan(Put), 4-Azaoktan-1,8-diamin(Spd), 4,9-Diazadodekan-1,12-diamin(Spm), sowie auch deren Homologen 1,3-Diaminopropan(Put3), 4-Azaheptan-1,7-diamin(Spd3,3) und 4,8-Diazaundekan-1,11-diamin(Spm3,3,3) mit H+, Cu(II), Zn(II), Pb(II) und Mg(II). Mit Hilfe der VIS-Technik wurde die Koordinationsweise in Kupfer/Amin-Systemen bestimmt. Es wurde festgestellt, daß Mg(II) keine Koordinationsverbindungen mit den untersuchten Polyaminen bildet. Eine höhere Konzentration von Ligand und Metall führte zu stärkerer Tendenz der Bildung protonierter Verbindungen, wobei die Konzentration von Hydroxokomplexen kleiner wurde. Bei physiologischempH (7.4) wurde im Bereich der Ligand-Konzentration von 0.001 mol dm–3 bis 0.0001 mol dm–3 bei einer Cu(II)-Konzentration von 0.000177 mol dm–3 ein Anstieg der Konzentration protonierter Verbindungen um etwa 15% beobachtet.

聚乙烯亚胺是典型的聚阳离子基因载体材料,但是具有一定的细胞毒性,以小分子多胺为基础制备易降解的高分子材料是降低聚乙烯亚胺类基因载体材料的细胞毒性和提高基因转染效率的重要方法。为深入了解聚乙烯亚胺类基因载体材料与生物大分子的相互作用,本文综合应用吸收光谱、共振瑞利散射、圆二色谱和荧光光谱研究典型小分子多胺化合物亚精胺与溶菌酶的相互作用及其对酶的构象、催化活性和催化动力学的影响和机理。亚精胺是两亲性分子,其氨基基团易于质子化而具有较强的静电结合和氢键形成能力,亚甲基基团则具有一定的疏水性。亚精胺较小的分子尺寸和两亲性使其可以穿透进入溶菌酶的疏水核心,与溶菌酶肽链的非特异性结合导致溶菌酶二级结构由α-螺旋向β-折叠和β-转角转变,并导致溶菌酶表面疏水性略微增强。亚精胺与溶菌酶的结合降低了溶菌酶对底物溶壁微球菌的亲和力和最大反应速率,低浓度的亚精胺对溶菌酶的活性具有显著的抑制作用。  相似文献

Triterpenoids and steroids are considered to be important for the fruit quality and health-promoting properties for the consumers. The aim of the study was the determination of the changes in triterpenoid and steroid biosynthesis and the accumulation in hypanthium and achenes of rugosa rose (Rosa rugosa Thunb.) hip during fruit development and ripening at three different phenological stages (young fruits, fully developed unripe fruits, and matured fruits). Triterpenoids and steroids were also determined in the peel and the pulp of the matured hips. The obtained results indicated that the distribution of the analyzed compounds in different fruit tissues is a selective process. The increased rate of hydroxylation of triterpenoids, the deposition of hydroxylated acids in fruit surface layer, and the continuous biosynthesis of phytosterols in achenes versus its gradual repression in hypanthium accompanied by the accumulation of their biosynthetic intermediates and ketone derivatives seem to be characteristic metabolic features of maturation of rugosa rose accessory fruit. These observations, apart from providing the important data on metabolic modifications occurring in developing fruits, might have a practical application in defining fruit parts, particularly rich in bioactive constituents, to enable the development of novel functional products.  相似文献

The oleaginous and red yeast Rhodotorula glutinis CCY 20-2-26 is known for its high-storage lipids accumulation in cells as well as for β-carotene biosynthesis. The work is focused on the study of lipogenesis and carotenoid pigments formation by the yeast grown in media with four different C/N ratios (20:1, 50:1, 70:1 and 100:1). Total fatty acids accumulation in cells reached the maximal value of 48% and yielded up to 8.9 g fatty acid/L media under C/N 70:1. On contrary, while the highest pigment accumulation in the yeast (1268 μg/g of cells) was found at the C/N ratio of 20:1, the maximal carotenoid yield (mainly β-carotene) of 12.7 mg/L was obtained under 50:1 ratio. Calculation of kinetic parameters of metabolites production revealed the metabolic correlations among glucose consumption, lipogenesis and carotenoid biosynthesis. It was demonstrated that glucose exhaustion resulted in reduction of growth and lipid accumulation in cells. Then, storage fatty acids, especially palmitic and oleic acids, begun to be degraded by β-oxidations and formed acetyl-CoA which was especially used for biosynthesis of β-carotene. This is the first study providing the new hypothesis about the metabolic connection between fatty acids and β-carotene metabolism in the red yeasts.  相似文献

Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil derived from lipid‐rich fleshy mesocarp tissue of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) fruit and is of global economic and nutritional relevance. While the understanding of oil biosynthesis in plants is improving, the fundamentals of oil biosynthesis in oil palm still require further investigations. To gain insight into the systemic mechanisms that govern oil synthesis during oil palm fruit ripening, the proteomics approach combining gel‐based electrophoresis and mass spectrometry was used to profile protein changes and classify the patterns of protein accumulation during these complex physiological processes. Protein profiles from different stages of fruit ripening at 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18 and 20 weeks after anthesis (WAA) were analysed by two‐dimensional gel electrophoresis (2DE). The proteome data were then visualised using a multivariate statistical analysis of principal component analysis (PCA) to get an overview of the proteome changes during the development of oil palm mesocarp. A total of 68 differentially expressed protein spots were successfully identified by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionisation‐time of flight (MALDI‐TOF/TOF) and functionally classified using ontology analysis. Proteins related to lipid production, energy, secondary metabolites and amino acid metabolism are the most significantly changed proteins during fruit development representing potential candidates for oil yield improvement endeavors. Data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD009579. This study provides important proteome information for protein regulation during oil palm fruit ripening and oil synthesis.  相似文献

Plant polyphenol oxidases (PPOs) are ubiquitous plastid-localized enzymes. A precise analysis of PPO function in plants has been complicated by the presence of several family members with immunological cross reactivity. Previously we reported the isolation of genomic clones coding for the seven members of the tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) PPO family (A, A', B, C, D, E, and F). Here we report the complex spatial and temporal expression of one of the members, PPO B. The PPO B promoter was sequenced and subjected to homology analysis. Sequence similarities were found to nucleotide sequences of genes encoding enzymes/proteins active in the following systems: phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, signal transduction and responsiveness to hormones and stresses, fruit and seed proteins/enzymes, and photosynthesis. Chimeric gene fusions were constructed linking PPO B 5' flanking regions to the reporter gene, b-glucuronidase (GUS). The resultant transgenic plants were histochemically analyzed for GUS activity in various vegetative and reproductive tissues, and evaluated for PPO B responsiveness to ethylene induction. It was shown that PPO B expression was tissue specific, developmentally regulated, ethylene induced, and localized predominantly to mitotic or apoptotic tissues.  相似文献

The sensitivity of the photosynthetic apparatus to ultraviolet-B (UV-B) irradiation was studied in cultures of unicellular green alga Scenedesmus obliquus incubated in low light (low photosynthetically active radiation intensity [LL]) and high light (high photosynthetically active radiation intensity [HL]) conditions, treated or not with exogenous polyamines. Biochemical and physicochemical measurements showed that UV-B radiation induces a decrease in the thylakoid-associated putrescine (Put) and an increase in spermine (Spm), so that the reduction of Put/Spm ratio leads to the increase of light-harvesting complex II (LHCII) size per active reaction center and, consequently, the amplification of UV-B effects on the photosynthetic apparatus. The separation of oligomeric and monomeric forms of LHCII from isolated thylakoids showed that UV-B induces an increase in the oligomeric forms of LHCII, which was more intense in LL than in HL. By manipulating the LHCII size with exogenous polyamines, the sensitivity degree of the photosynthetic apparatus to UV-B changed significantly. Specifically, the addition of Put decreased highly the sensitivity of LL culture to UV-B because of the inhibitory effect of Put on the LHCII size increasing, whereas the addition of Spm enhanced the UV-B injury induced in HL culture because of the increasing of LHCII size. The ability of the photosynthetic apparatus to recover the UV-B induced changes was also investigated.  相似文献

Maoji Jiu (MJ) is a kind of medicinal wine that has been widely used by Chinese people for many years to nourish and promote blood circulation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the hematopoietic effect of MJ on the metabolism of blood deficient rats and to explore the underlying hematopoietic regulation mechanisms. Blood deficiency model rats were induced by subcutaneous injection of N-acetylphenylhydrazine (APH) and intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CTX). The plasma metabolic fingerprints of blood deficiency model rats with and without MJ treatment were obtained by using metabonomics based on ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC–QTOF/MS). Orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS–DA) was used to evaluate the hematopoietic effect of MJ and identify potential biomarkers in the plasma of blood deficiency model rats. The levels of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC) and hemoglobin (HGB) and the activity of antioxidant capacity showed a recovery trend to the control group after MJ treatment, while the dose of 10 mL/kg showed the best effect. In this study, thirteen potential biomarkers were identified, which were mainly related to seven metabolic pathways, including linoleic acid metabolism, d-glutamine and d-glutamate metabolism, alanine, aspartate and glutamate metabolism, tryptophan metabolism, pyrimidine metabolism, porphyrin and chlorophyll metabolism and arginine biosynthesis. Metabolomics was applied frequently to reflect the physiological and metabolic state of organisms comprehensively, indicating that the rapid plasma metabonomics may be a potentially powerful tool to reveal the efficacy and enriching blood mechanism of MJ.  相似文献
