Effects of component of some Chinese herbs on proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells in vitro

AIM: To observe the effects of some component of Chinese herbs for external use on proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and investigate the mechanism of promoting tissue repair. METHODS: The method of MTT was used to examine the effects of Rg1, Rh1, perlolyrine, cinnamyl aldehyde, muscone, astragaluspolysaccharin (APS), velver antler polypeptide (VAP) and soluble extract of boswellia carterii birdw (BCB) on proliferation of HUVEC. RESULTS: APS did not promote proliferation of HUVEC at 9.75 mg/L-2.5 g/L; Rh1 promoted proliferation of HUVEC at 1.94 mg/L-0.5 g/L (P<0.05 or P＜0.01), and Rg1 inhibited proliferation of HUVEC at 31 mg/L (P<0.05); VAP promoted proliferation of HUVEC at 1 mg/L-0.5 g/L with optimal dose of 10 mg/L (P<0.01), Cinnamyl aldehyde promoted proliferation of HUVEC at 2 g/L(P＜0. 05); Muscone and soluble extract of BCB inhibited proliferation of HUVEC at 1 g/L, 0.5-2.5 kg/L(P＜0. 01), respectively; Perlolyrine inhibited proliferation of HUVEC at 0.125 g/L-0.5 g/L(P＜0. 01). CONCLUSION: The external herbs for supplementing Qi and warming Yang can promote HUVEC proliferation and improve angiogenesis during tissue repair. The external herbs for promoting blood circulation and accelerating capillary movement may have influence upon other stages of tissue repair.     

伊氏锥虫多种克隆群体的采集及血清学检测

针对伊氏锥虫抗原变异，国内外学者对抗原变异规律进行了研究，对其抗原变异程序、变异数量、变异频率等有了一定的了解，在此基础上进行免疫学研究进而寻求防治锥虫病的免疫学手段。但多局限于某种动物个体感染锥虫后的一小段有限的时间进行，所获得的抗原变异型数量较少，因而很难澄清如：一个虫株究竟能有多少变异机会，是以怎样的程序变异的等问题。

生物炭对不同浇水条件下冬小麦产量及水分利用效率的影响

为了探讨生物炭施用量在不同浇水条件下对冬小麦的增产效果,2015-2017年通过大田试验设置0(B0,CK),20(B20),40(B40),60(B60) t/hm~2共4个生物炭施用量和不浇水(W0)、浇越冬水(W1)2个浇水处理,研究了生物炭施用量在不同浇水条件下对土壤含水量、土壤温度、土壤容重、冬小麦产量及构成因素以及水分利用效率的影响。结果表明,不浇水条件下,小麦产量及水分利用效率随生物炭施用量增加先增加后减少,当生物炭施用量为40 t/hm~2时产量和水分利用效率均最高,比B0(CK)处理分别增加8.0%和8.2%;浇水条件下,小麦产量和水分利用效率随生物炭施用量增加而增加,B40和B60处理比B0(CK)分别增加7.4%,12.2%和8.0%,16.3%。不浇水条件下,当土壤含水量低于15%时,B60和B40处理下土壤水分含量低于其他处理;浇水条件下,施用生物炭可增加土壤水分含量,施用生物炭增加土壤贮水量、减少小麦生育期耗水量、降低土壤容重,浇水比不浇水增加容重降低幅度。不浇水条件下,生物炭明显提高返青期前土壤日平均温度,浇水使生物炭对土壤温度的作用相反。返青期后,不浇水条件下土壤日平均地温在各处理间差异不大,浇水条件下表现为日均地温较低时高,较高时低的现象。综合而言,适宜生物炭添加量可以增加旱区土壤水分含量,提高小麦产量和水分利用效率。

Chitosan nanoparticles enhance developmental competence of in vitro-matured porcine oocytes

Oxidative stress is inevitable as it is derived from the handling, culturing, inherent metabolic activities and medium supplementation of embryos. This study was performed to investigate the protective effect of chitosan nanoparticles (CNPs) on oxidative damage in porcine oocytes. For this purpose, cumulus–oocyte complexes (COCs) derived from porcine slaughterhouse ovaries were exposed to different concentrations of CNPs (0, 10, 25 and 50 µg/ml) during in vitro maturation (IVM). Oocytes treated with 25 µg/ml CNPs showed significantly higher levels of GSH, along with a significant reduction in ROS levels compared to control, CNPs10 and CNPs50 groups. In parthenogenetic embryo production, the maturation rate was significantly higher in the CNPs25 group than that in the control and all other treated groups. In addition, when compared to the CNPs50 and control groups, CNPs25-treated oocytes showed significantly higher cleavage and blastocyst development rates. The highest concentration of CNPs reduced the total cell number and ratio of ICM: TE cells in parthenogenetic embryos, suggesting that there is a threshold where benefits are lost if exceeded. In cloned embryos, the CNPs25 group, as compared to all other treated groups, showed significantly higher maturation and cleavage rates. Furthermore, the blastocyst development rate in the CNPs25-treated group was significantly higher than that in the CNPs50-treated group, as was the total cell number. Moreover, we found that cloned embryos derived from the CNPs25-treated group showed significantly higher expression levels of Pou5f1, Dppa2, and Ndp52il genes, compared with those of the control and other treated groups. Our results demonstrated that 25 µg/ml CNPs treatment during IVM improves the developmental competence of porcine oocytes by reducing oxidative stress.     

Effects of a Dual‐Frequency Frequency‐Sweeping Ultrasound Treatment on the Properties and Structure of the Zein Protein

We investigated the effects of a dual‐frequency frequency‐sweeping ultrasound (DFFSU) treatment on the functional properties and structure of zein. The solubility of ultrasound‐treated zein proteins increased slightly but significantly as the treatment time increased. The results showed that the DFFSU treatment had an obvious influence on the mean particle size and the size distribution. A significant (P < 0.05) increase in the size of the particles with respect to time was observed after a sonication time of more than 20 min in zein solutions. Differential scanning calorimetry results showed that sonication alters the thermal behavior of zein. Circular dichroism spectra showed a small increase in the percentage of ordered structure elements within the protein molecule. After 60 min of ultrasonication, the percentage of α‐helix structures increased by 0.9%, whereas the percentage of β‐sheets and β‐turns decreased by 0.5%. Microstructural analyses by scanning electron microscopy showed that several microholes appeared in the zein following ultrasonic pretreatment. Under the conditions investigated in this study, DFFSU treatment was found to affect the studied functional properties of the zein protein. This technology could be used to obtain improved functional properties in some protein samples.
