Ladderane lipids, containing three or five linearly concatenated cyclobutane moieties, are considered to be unique biomarkers for the process of anaerobic ammonium oxidation, an important link in the oceanic nitrogen cycle. Due to the thermal lability of the strained cyclobutane moieties, the ladderane lipids are difficult to analyze by gas chromatography. A method combining high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to positive ion atmospheric pressure chemical ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/APCI-MS/MS) was developed for the analysis of the most abundant ladderane lipids, occurring as fatty acids and ether-bound to glycerol. Detection was achieved by selective reaction monitoring of four specific fragmentations per ladderane lipid. Detection limits of 30-35 pg injected on-column and a linear response (r(2) > 0.99) over nearly 3 orders of magnitude were achieved for all compounds. Using this method, these unique ladderane lipids were for the first time identified in a surface sediment from the Gullmarsfjorden, in concentrations ranging from 1.1-5.5 ng/g for the ladderane fatty acids and of 0.7 ng/g for the monoether. It is foreseen that this method will allow the investigation of the occurrence of anaerobic ammonium oxidation in natural settings in much greater detail than before. 相似文献

Background
The expression pattern and function of miRNAs in the rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy have not been well defined. Profiling miRNA expression in the rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy and investigating the function of specific miRNAs in epilepsy offers the prospect of a deeper understanding of the mechanisms of epilepsy.Methods
The lithium-pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus model and the temporal lobe epilepsy model were established in Sprague?CDawley rats. Samples were analysed to detect deregulated miRNAs in the hippocampal temporal lobe, and several of these deregulated miRNAs were confirmed by qPCR. The expression of the pro-apoptotic miR-34a was detected at 1?day, 7?days and 2?weeks post-status epilepticus and at 2?months after temporal lobe epilepsy. The antagomir of miR-34a was then utilised. The expression of miR-34a after targeting and the expression change of activated caspase-3 protein were examined. The effects of altering the expression of miR-34a and activated caspase-3 protein on neuronal survival and neuronal death or apoptosis post-status epilepticus were assessed.Results
The miRNA microarray detected 9 up-regulated miRNAs (miR-146a, -211, -203, -210, -152, -31, -23a, -34a, -27a) and 15 down-regulated miRNAs (miR-138*, -301a, -136, -153, -19a, -135b, -325-5p, -380, -190, -542-3p, -33, -144, -542-5p, -543, -296*). Some of the deregulated miRNAs (miR-146a, miR-210, miR-27a, miR-135b and miR-33) were confirmed using qPCR. Furthermore, an increase in expression of the pro-apoptotic miR-34a was demonstrated in the post-status epilepticus rat hippocampus. miR-34a was significantly up-regulated at 1?day, 7?days and 2?weeks post-status epilepticus and at 2?months after temporal lobe epilepsy. Experiments with the miR-34a antagomir revealed that targeting miR-34a led to an inhibition of activated caspase-3 protein expression, which may contribute to increased neuronal survival and reduced neuronal death or apoptosis.Conclusions
Our study showed the expression profile of miRNAs in the hippocampus in a rat model of temporal lobe epilepsy and an increase in the expression of the pro-apoptotic miR-34a in post-status epilepticus rats. The results show that miR-34a is up-regulated during seizure-induced neuronal death or apoptosis, and targeting miR-34a is neuroprotective and is associated with an inhibition of an increase in activated caspase-3 protein. 相似文献6.
