Effects of Momordica grosvenori Saponins on Type 2 Diabetes Rats Induced by High-sucrose/High-fat Diet and Streptozotocin

The purpose of the experiment was to study the effect of Momordica grosvenori saponins on improving the effect of high-sucrose/high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin induced type 2 diabetes in rats.The type 2 diabetes rat model was established with a high-sucrose and high-fat diet combined with streptozotocin.Successfully modeled rats were given the total saponins of Momordica grosvenori (100,200,400 mg/kg) or metformin (268 mg/kg) by gavage,once a day for 4 weeks.Recording the "three more and one less"index (24 h internal urine output,water intake and feed intake,body weight);Detecting of biochemical indicators,analysis of fasting blood glucose (FBG),serum total cholesterol (TC),triglycerides (TG),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C),insulin (INS),catalase (CAT),superoxide dismutase (SOD),malondialdehyde (MDA),alanine aminotransferase (AST),aspartate aminotransferase (ALT),blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (Cr) levels.Hematoxylin-eosin staining (HE) was used to observe the pathological changes of the pancreas.Compared with the model group,the feed intake,water intake,urine output,blood indicators FBG,INS,MDA,TC,TG,BUN and Cr levels,AST and ALT activities were significantly or extremely significantly decreased in the total saponins of Momordica grosvenori each dose group and metformin group (P<0.05;P<0.01),while CAT,SOD activities and HDL-C level were significantly or extremely significantly increased (P<0.05;P<0.01).In pancreatic tissue,the number of pancreatic cells was increased significantly,and the pathological damage of the pancreas was significantly reduced. Momordica grosvenori saponins and metformin had obvious effects on improving glucose metabolism disorders,and at the same time could significantly reduce insulin resistance,enhance the body’s ability to resist oxidative stress and improve liver and kidney functions.

cFLIP regulates death receptor-mediated apoptosis in an ovarian granulosa cell line by inhibiting procaspase-8 cleavage

More than 99% of follicles in mammalian ovaries undergo atresia, but the mechanisms regulating the strict selection process are still unclear. Granulosa cell apoptosis is considered the trigger of follicular atresia, which occurs in advance of the death of an oocyte. Cellular FLICE-like inhibitory protein (cFLIP), a homologue of procaspase-8 (also called FLICE), is an intracellular anti-apoptotic protein. It is expressed in granulosa cells of porcine ovaries, where its levels decreases during follicular atresia. We hypothesized that cFLIP regulates granulosa cell apoptosis by acting as a pro-survival factor. In the present study, to further reveal the function of cFLIP in granulosa cells, we examined the anti-apoptotic mechanism of cFLIP using KGN, a human granulosa tumor cell line. Fas-mediated apoptosis was induced by co-treatment with anti-Fas antibody (CH-11), which acts as an agonist of Fas-ligand, and cycloheximide (CHX). When cFLIP was stably expressed in KGN cells following transfection of an expression vector, the Fas-mediated apoptosis was inhibited. Suppression of cFLIP by small interfering RNA (siRNA) spontaneously induced cell death. Silencing of cFLIP promoted cleavage of procaspase-8, and the cell death caused by cFLIP siRNA was completely blocked by a caspase-8 inhibitor (Z-IETD-FMK), indicating that cFLIP regulates apoptosis in KGN cells by inhibiting cleavage of procaspase-8. In conclusion, cFLIP is an essential pro-survival factor for granulosa cells, and it prevents granulosa cell apoptosis by inhibiting procaspase-8 activation.     

草地根际过程对养分循环调控机制研究进展

了解根际土壤养分碳、氮和磷的转化和循环利用是解决草地农业生态系统可持续利用性和提高草地生产力的根本问题。草地根际过程能够反映土壤碳、氮和磷等养分的周转速率,影响植物、土壤微生物对养分的竞争和捕获,维持根际微环境中各组分的养分平衡,同时与作物相比,草地土壤中养分元素碳、氮和磷的耦合性更强。因此,根际微生态系统结构与功能在维持养分转化和循环等方面具有重要作用。大量文献报道,调控根际微环境改变的关键因素是植物与土壤进行物质交换和信息传递的关键物质-根际分泌物,同时根际分泌物也是介导根际微生物和根际酶活性的关键物质。当草地环境发生改变时,该区域的根际分泌物、根际酶活性和根际土壤的微生物的组成和多样性也将发生根本性改变,从而导致该区域土壤养分的供应量和有效性发生改变,最终影响草地生产力和养分的有效利用效率。因此,深入探究草地根际过程对养分循环的调控机理,对于揭示草地植物与微生物间养分物质的分配利用和养分收益方面具有重要指导意义。综述了根际分泌物、根际酶和根际微生物参与养分循环的机制和互作机理,总结草地根际过程参与养分循环的机制,并对草学领域未来在根际微域的研究进行了一定的展望。

猪宰后肌肉SOD与MDA的变化及其对肉质特性的影响

以莱芜猪(24头)、鲁莱黑猪(24头)和大约克夏猪(12头)共60头去势公猪为试验对象,研究宰后肌肉SOD活性与MDA含量的变化及其对肉质特性的影响。结果表明:①猪宰后肌肉随贮存时间的延长,肌肉SOD活性逐渐下降,MDA含量则逐渐上升;不同品种猪间的SOD活性和MDA含量,除MDA5 d差异不显著外(P0.05),其余均具有极显著的差异(P0.01),并且SOD活性始终是莱芜猪鲁莱黑猪大约克夏猪,MDA含量则是莱芜猪鲁莱黑猪大约克夏猪。②在肉质特性方面,不同品种猪间的肉色、滴水损失、系水率、烹饪损失、肌内脂肪(IMF)和多不饱和脂肪酸(PUFA)含量具有极显著的差异(P0.01),与大约克夏猪相比,莱芜猪和鲁莱黑猪肌肉具有鲜红的肉色、良好的持水性能、较丰富的IMF含量和较低的PUFA含量。③猪宰后肌肉SOD、MDA与持水性能、肉色、嫩度等重要肉质性状间存在不同程度的显著相关,证明SOD活性越高和MDA含量越低的肌肉,其系水力越高、肉色越鲜艳,并且肉质越细嫩。研究结果提示:猪宰后肌肉SOD通过消除或降低氧自由基而抑制脂质氧化,参与调控了肉质特性的形成。
