    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :In the present study we demonstrate the identification of phenolic compounds and the phenolic contents of the methanol extracts from stem and buds of Calligonum polygonoides with antioxidant activity. Eleven and nine phenolic compounds were identified and quantified from stem and buds, respectively by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). p-Coumaric acid was predominant in stem and gallic acid in buds. In general, the samples with the highest phenolic contents had the highest antioxidant activities. Stem and buds sparked attention due to their high phenolic contents and antioxidant activities. The Results from present study reveal that the C. polygonoides could be considered as a promising source of antioxidant phytochemicals.
    背景与目标: :在本研究中,我们证明了从具有抗氧化活性的南方五倍体茎和芽中提取的酚类化合物和甲醇提取物中的酚类含量。通过高效液相色谱(HPLC)分别从茎和芽中鉴定和定量了11种和9种酚类化合物。对香豆酸主要在茎中,而没食子酸则在芽中。通常,酚含量最高的样品具有最高的抗氧化活性。茎和芽因其较高的酚含量和抗氧化活性而引起人们的注意。本研究的结果表明,多角梭菌可以被认为是抗氧化剂植物化学物质的有前途的来源。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :In recent years, ready-to eat breakfast cereals prepared with fruit ingredients have gained particular attention due to their polyphenolic contents and health promoting effects. In this study, the matrix effect of blueberry, oat meal, whole milk or skimmed milk on polyphenols, antioxidative potential as well as their potential bioavailability were investigated. The phenolic properties of whole milk, skimmed milk, blueberry and oat meal were investigated and the changes in combinations of the ingredients were determined. Milk addition decreased the total phenolic, flavonoid and anthocyanin content of samples statistically and had negative effect on antioxidant activity showing differences among different methods. According to HPLC results, it was not possible to detect catechin in mixtures due to milk addition. In vitro digestion method was used to determine potential bioavailability of phenolic compounds. According to in vitro digestion procedure results, whole or skimmed milk did not affect the total phenolic content of the proportion passing to the blood from intestine.
    背景与目标: :近年来,以水果成分制成的即食早餐谷物由于其多酚含量和促进健康的作用而受到特别关注。在这项研究中,研究了蓝莓,燕麦粉,全脂牛奶或脱脂牛奶对多酚,抗氧化潜力及其潜在生物利用度的基质作用。研究了全脂牛奶,脱脂牛奶,蓝莓和燕麦粉的酚类性质,并确定了成分组合的变化。牛奶的添加统计地降低了样品中总酚,类黄酮和花青素的含量,并对抗氧化活性产生了负面影响,表明不同方法之间存在差异。根据HPLC结果,由于添加了牛奶,因此无法检测混合物中的儿茶素。体外消化法用于确定酚类化合物的潜在生物利用度。根据体外消化程序的结果,全脂或脱脂牛奶不影响从肠传递到血液的总酚含量。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :We have assesed the actions as free radical scavengers and inhibitors on peroxidation of hesperidin and neohesperidin dihydrochalcone, two flavonoids, flavanone and dihydrochalcone respectively, as some of the pharmacological properties of flavonoids group have been related with these activities. Hesperidin just at 10(-4) and 5 · 10(-4)M is able to show a low inhibitory activity in the superoxide anion radicals (O(2)(-)) genesis (8.66 ± 1.40 and 11.69 ± 2.36% respectively), and on the non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation at 10(-3)M dose (9.78 ± 0.35%), without affecting the hydroxyl radical (•OH) formation, generated by the ascorbic acid-Fe(3+)-EDTA system. In the other hand, neohesperidin dihydrochalcone is an authentic antioxidant drug as tested at all doses. It showed a great scavenger activity and/or inhibition of formation on O(2)(-) radicals (31.53 - 84.62%) and a significant scavenging effect on OH radicals (6.00 - 23.49%), as well as an important inhibitory action on non-enzymatic lipid peroxidation (15.43-95.33%).
    背景与目标: :我们评估了自由基清除剂和抑制剂对橙皮苷和新橙皮苷二氢查尔酮,两种黄酮,黄烷酮和二氢查尔酮的过氧化的作用,因为类黄酮类的某些药理特性与这些活性有关。橙皮苷仅在10(-4)和5·10(-4)M时对超氧阴离子自由基(O(2)(-))的产生具有较低的抑制活性(分别为8.66±1.40和11.69±2.36% ),并且在10(-3)M剂量(9.78±0.35%)的非酶促脂质过氧化作用下,不影响抗坏血酸-Fe(3)-EDTA系统生成的羟基自由基(•OH)的形成。另一方面,新橙皮苷二氢查耳酮是一种经过验证的真正抗氧化剂,在所有剂量下均已测试。它显示出强大的清除剂活性和/或对O(2)(-)自由基的形成的抑制作用(31.53-84.62%)和对OH自由基的显着清除作用(6.00-23.49%),以及对OH自由基的重要抑制作用非酶脂质过氧化(15.43-95.33%)。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :A series of berberine-thiophenyl hybrids were designed, synthesised, and evaluated as inhibitors of acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) and β-amyloid (Aβ) aggregation and as antioxidants. Among these hybrids, compounds 4f and 4i, berberine linked with o-methylthiophenyl and o-chlorothiophenyl by a 2-carbon spacer, were observed to be potent inhibitors of AChE, with IC50 values of 0.077 and 0.042 μM, respectively. Of the tested compounds, 4i was also the most potent inhibitor of BuChE, with an IC50 value of 0.662 μM. Kinetic studies and molecular modelling simulations of the AChE-inhibitor complex indicated that a mixed-competitive binding mode existed for these berberine derivatives. The biological studies also demonstrated that these hybrids displayed interesting activities, including Aβ aggregation inhibition and antioxidant properties.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :The Kozani-Ptolemais-Amyntaio basin constitutes the principal coal field of Greece. Approximately 50% of the total power production of Greece is generated by five power stations operating in the area. Lignite samples, together with the corresponding fly ash and bottom ash were collected, over a period of 3 months, from the power plant of Amyntaio and analyzed for their content in 16 trace elements. The results indicate that Y, Nb, U, Rb, Zr, Ni, Pb, Ba, Zn, Sr, Cu, and Th demonstrate an organic affinity during the combustion of lignite, while V has an inorganic affinity. Three elements (Co, Cr, and Sc) show an intermediate affinity.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :The Chernobyl nuclear reactor accident occurred in 1986. The plume from the explosions and fires was highly radioactive and resulted in very high exposure levels in the surrounding regions. This paper describes how the people in Kiev, Ukraine, a city 120 km (90 miles) south of Chernobyl, and in particular one individual in that city, Professor Vitaly Eremenko, became aware of the threat before the official announcement and the steps he took to mitigate potential impacts to his immediate family. The combination of being informed and using available resources led to greatly reduced consequences for his family and, in particular, his newborn granddaughter. He notes how quickly word of the some aspects of the hazard spread in the city and how other aspects appear to not have been understood. Although these events are being recalled as the 20 anniversary of the terrible event approaches, the lessons are still pertinent today. Threats of possible terrorist use of radiation dispersal devices makes knowledge of effective individual actions for self-protection from radiation exposures a topic of current interest.
    背景与目标: 切尔诺贝利核反应堆事故发生在1986年。爆炸和大火中的烟流具有很高的放射性,并导致周围地区的暴露水平很高。本文介绍了乌克兰基辅市(切尔诺贝利以南120公里(90英里))的人们,尤其是该市的一个人维塔利·埃雷缅科(Vitaly Eremenko)教授在正式宣布宣布采取行动之前如何意识到这一威胁以及他采取的措施减轻对他的直系亲属的潜在影响。知情和使用可用资源的结合,大大减少了对他的家人,特别是对他的新生孙女的影响。他指出,危害的某些方面在城市中传播的速度有多快,而其他方面似乎还没有被理解。尽管这些事件是在可怕事件发生20周年之际被召回的,但今天的课程仍然有意义。恐怖分子可能会使用辐射扩散装置来构成威胁,这使人们了解有效的个人防护措施,以自我保护免受辐射照射成为当前关注的话题。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :The healthy drink Pairogen is mainly composed of ferrous ferric chloride water that reportedly changes the status of intracellular water from oxidative to antioxidative. Here, we investigated whether Pairogen affects host immune function in a murine model of granulomatous inflammation in response to Rhodococcus aurantiacus (R. aurantiacus) infection. Longitudinal ingestion of Pairogen markedly improved the survival of infected mice in a concentration-dependent manner. Compared to mice received water, mice that ingested 10-fold-diluted Pairogen displayed rapid bacterial elimination, decreased production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-6, and high levels of IL-10 in organs during the initial phase of infection. Moreover, histological studies showed significant reduction in the number and size of granulomas as well as amelioration of oxidative stress in the livers of mice ingested 10-fold-diluted Pairogen at 14 d post-infection. These characteristics were further pronounced in first-generation (F1) mice that also ingested 10-fold-diluted Pairogen. Following stimulation with heat-killed R. aurantiacus, the production of TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-10 by macrophages from F1 mice was similar to that detected in vivo, while their gene expression levels in these cells were significantly lower than the levels in macrophages from mice received water. Heat-killed R. aurantiacus also induced the expression of heme oxygenase-1 mRNA in the cells from F1 mice. Taken together, these results indicate that Pairogen contributes to the negative regulation of the immuno-inflammatory response to R. aurantiacus infection in mice by modulating the cellular redox state. Longitudinal ingestion of Pairogen further enhances the defense function in mouse progeny.
    背景与目标: 健康饮品Pairogen主要由氯化亚铁水组成,据报道,其改变了细胞内水的状态,从氧化性变为抗氧化性。在这里,我们调查了Pairogen是否会影响肉芽肿性炎症小鼠模型中的宿主免疫功能,以应对金黄色葡萄球菌(R. aurantiacus)感染。纵向摄入Pairogen可以显着提高被感染小鼠的存活率,且浓度依赖性。与接受水的小鼠相比,摄入10倍稀释的Pairogen的小鼠在该过程中表现出快速的细菌清除,降低的肿瘤坏死因子(TNF)-α和白介素(IL)-6的产生以及高水平的IL-10。感染的初始阶段。此外,组织学研究表明,感染后14 d摄入10倍稀释的Pairogen的小鼠肝脏中肉芽肿的数量和大小显着减少,并且氧化应激得到改善。这些特征在也摄取了10倍稀释的Pairogen的第一代(F1)小鼠中更加明显。用热杀死的金黄色葡萄球菌刺激后,F1小鼠巨噬细胞产生的TNF-α,IL-6和IL-10与体内检测到的相似,而它们在这些细胞中的基因表达水平明显低于老鼠的巨噬细胞中的水平接受了水。热杀死的金黄色葡萄球菌还诱导了F1小鼠细胞中血红素加氧酶-1 mRNA的表达。综上所述,这些结果表明Pairogen通过调节细胞的氧化还原状态,对小鼠对金黄色葡萄球菌感染的免疫炎症反应作出了负调控。纵向摄取Pairogen可以进一步增强小鼠后代的防御功能。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Secoisolariciresinol diglucosides (SDGs) (S,S)-SDG-1 (major isomer in flaxseed) and (R,R)-SDG-2 (minor isomer in flaxseed) were synthesized from vanillin via secoisolariciresinol (6) and glucosyl donor 7 through a concise route that involved chromatographic separation of diastereomeric diglucoside derivatives (S,S)-8 and (R,R)-9. Synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 exhibited potent antioxidant properties (EC50=292.17±27.71 μM and 331.94±21.21 μM, respectively), which compared well with that of natural (S,S)-SDG-1 (EC50=275.24±13.15 μM). These values are significantly lower than those of ascorbic acid (EC50=1129.32±88.79 μM) and α-tocopherol (EC50=944.62±148.00 μM). Compounds (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 also demonstrated powerful scavenging activities against hydroxyl [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: 3.68±0.27; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.09±0.16; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: 1.96±0.27], peroxyl [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.55±0.11; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: 2.20±0.10; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: 3.03±0.04] and DPPH [natural (S,S)-SDG-1: EC50=83.94±2.80 μM; synthetic (S,S)-SDG-1: EC50=157.54±21.30 μM; synthetic (R,R)-SDG-2: EC50=123.63±8.67 μM] radicals. These results confirm previous studies with naturally occurring (S,S)-SDG-1 and establish both (S,S)-SDG-1 and (R,R)-SDG-2 as potent antioxidants and free radical scavengers for potential in vivo use.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Dendrotoxins, important pharmacological tools for studying K(+) channels, are potently convulsant in the central nervous system and evidence suggests that different members of the dendrotoxin family may act at pre- or post-synaptic sites. Using a combination of intrahippocampal infusion, microdialysis and electroencephalograph (EEG) recording, we have compared the effects of alpha-dendrotoxin and dendrotoxin K on extracellular levels of excitatory amino acids in anaesthetised rats. Our findings show that although infusion of 35 pmol of both peptides was associated with elevated extracellular aspartate and glutamate, these increased levels were more sustained with dendrotoxin K. Furthermore, there was EEG evidence of an associated transient functional change consistent with an action on pre-synaptic K(+) channels. In contrast, infusion of alpha-dendrotoxin produced only a brief effect on amino acid levels and no evidence of a functional consequence.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :Sixteen ovarian germ-cell malignancy (OGCM) patients between 1983 and 1999 were randomly divided into the BEP group (n=6; bleomycin, etoposide and cisplatin) and the BAP group (n=10; bleomycin, actinomycin-D and cisplatin). The patients were evaluated for adverse drug reactions (ADRs) based on severity-grading of the National Cancer Institute Common Toxicity Criteria. The ADRs in the BAP group were milder than in the BEP group, as seen in regard to alopecia (p=0.0126), low hemoglobin (p=0.0147), and decreased neutrophil count (p=0.0197). The five-year survival rate was 87.5% in the BAP group and 83.3% in the BEP group, and the difference was not significant (p=0.5954). BAP therapy is likely to be more beneficial for OGCM patients than BEP therapy, because ADRs are reduced with no difference in outcome.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: :In vitro chemical properties and antioxidant potential and in vivo mutagenic activity of honey-sweetened cashew apple nectar (HSCAN), a beverage produced from the cashew pseudo-fruit (Anacardium occidentale L.) and of its constituents were assessed. Analytical procedures were carried out to investigate the honey used in the HSCAN preparation, and the results observed are in accordance with Brazilian legal regulations, except for diastase number. HSCAN and pulp were investigated for ascorbic acid, carotenoid, anthocyanin and total phenolic contents, and both showed high acid ascorbic concentrations. Antioxidant capacity using 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH) and/or β-carotene/linoleic acid systems were applied and demonstrated a weak antioxidant capacity of honey and HSCAN, but cashew apple pulp demonstrated high antioxidant capacity. A weakly positive mutagenic effect of cashew pulp 20% was observed using the somatic mutation and recombination test (SMART) in Drosophila melanogaster only in the high-bioactivation (HB) cross. On the contrary, HSCAN was not mutagenic in both standard and high bioactivation crosses. HSCAN exhibited slight antioxidant activity, which could be associated with the high amount of ascorbic acid found in the samples evaluated. The beverage prepared did not induce DNA damage in somatic cells of D. melanogaster, which means that it is neither mutagenic nor recombinagenic in this test system.

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:Endocrine therapy is the most commonly used approach for the treatment of estrogen receptor (ERα)-positive breast cancer. The cure rate of patients with ERα-positive breast cancer is, however, limited due to the occurrence of endocrine resistance. Loss of ERα is one major mechanism for the occurrence of endocrine resistance. Recent studies have shown that pan-HDAC inhibitors may be effective in reversing endocrine resistance. However, the molecular mechanism underlying this reversal has remained largely unknown. Here we aimed to unravel this mechanism. METHODS:Endocrine resistant breast cancer cell lines were established through exposure to tamoxifen. mRNA expression was assessed by qRT-PCR and protein expression by Western blotting. The effect of HDAC3 inhibition on the viability of endocrine resistant breast cancer cells was evaluated using CCK-8 and colony forming assays. Immunohistochemistry was used to detect protein expression in primary breast cancer tissues. RESULTS:We found that in endocrine resistant breast cancer cells loss of ERα led to HDAC3 stabilization via decreased ERα-mediated caspase7 expression, resulting in reduced caspase7-mediated HDAC3 cleavage. We also found that the ERα-caspase7-HDAC3 axis determined the global H3K9 and H4K16 acetylation status, which was positively correlated with ERα expression. Finally, we found that inhibition of HDAC3 significantly decreased the viability of endocrine resistant breast cancer cells exhibiting ERα deficiency. The ERα-caspase7-HDAC3 axis was subsequently verified in primary endocrine resistant breast cancer samples. CONCLUSIONS:From our data we conclude that the ERα-caspase7-HDAC3 axis may play a role in promoting the proliferation of endocrine resistant breast cancer cells. HDAC3 may serve as a therapeutic target for (a subset of) endocrine resistant breast cancers exhibiting ERα loss.
    背景与目标: 目的:内分泌治疗是治疗雌激素受体(ERα)阳性乳腺癌的最常用方法。然而,由于发生内分泌耐药性,ERα阳性乳腺癌患者的治愈率受到限制。 ERα的丢失是内分泌耐药性发生的主要机制之一。最近的研究表明,泛HDAC抑制剂可能有效逆转内分泌抵抗力。但是,这种逆转的分子机制仍是未知之数。在这里,我们旨在揭示这种机制。
    方法:通过接触他莫昔芬建立内分泌抗性乳腺癌细胞系。通过qRT-PCR评估mRNA表达,并通过蛋白质印迹法评估蛋白质表达。使用CCK-8和集落形成试验评估了HDAC3抑制对内分泌抗性乳腺癌细胞活力的影响。免疫组织化学用于检测原发性乳腺癌组织中的蛋白表达。
    结果:我们发现在内分泌抗性乳腺癌细胞中,ERα的丢失通过减少ERα介导的caspase7表达而导致HDAC3稳定,从而导致caspase7介导的HDAC3裂解减少。我们还发现,ERα-caspase7-HDAC3轴决定了整体H3K9和H4K16的乙酰化状态,这与ERα的表达呈正相关。最后,我们发现抑制HDAC3会显着降低表现出ERα缺乏的内分泌抗性乳腺癌细胞的活力。随后在原发性内分泌抵抗性乳腺癌样本中验证了ERα-caspase7-HDAC3轴。
    结论:根据我们的数据,我们得出结论,ERα-caspase7-HDAC3轴可能在促进内分泌抗性乳腺癌细胞的增殖中发挥作用。 HDAC3可以用作表现出ERα缺失的内分泌耐药性乳腺癌(的一部分)的治疗靶标。

Fisher-344 rats were treated in separate groups as followssedentary control (SC); exercise training (ET) for 6.5 weeks; ethanol 20% (2.0 g kg-1, p.o.) for 6.5 weeks; and ET and ethanol administration. In liver, ET significantly decreased the malondialdehyde (MDA) level (73% of SC). Chronic ethanol significantly increased catalase (CAT) activity and MDA levels (126% and 135% of SC), respectively, and also depleted the reduced glutathione (GSH) level and the reduced to oxidized glutathione (GSH/GSSG) ratio (81% and 38% of SC), respectively. Exercise training plus ethanol significantly increased CAT and glutathione reductase (GR) activity (126% and 118% of SC), respectively, and decreased the MDA level (67% of SC). In plasma, ethanol significantly enhanced CAT activity and MDA levels (173% and 221% of SC), respectively. Ethanol ingestion also increased the CAT/superoxide dismutase (SOD) ratio (216% of SC) in plasma. Training plus ethanol ingestion significantly increased CAT activity and MDA levels (208% and 148% of SC), respectively, and increased CAT/SOD and glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)/SOD ratios (279% and 142% of SC), respectively. The data indicate that the combination of exercise and ethanol ingestion resulted in an enhanced hepatic CAT and GR activity to eliminate H2O2 and to maintain endogenous GSH levels. Thus, training ameliorated the ethanol-induced oxidative injury in the liver. The ratio of CAT/SOD in plasma increased twofold due to chronic ethanol intake and threefold due to the combination, which may be used as an index of oxidative stress.

    背景与目标: 进行这项研究是为了研究运动训练和长期饮酒对大鼠肝脏和血浆中抗氧化系统的相互作用。将Fisher-344大鼠按以下对照进行单独治疗;运动训练(ET)6.5周;乙醇20%(2.0 g kg-1,p.o.)6.5周;以及ET和乙醇的管理。在肝脏中,ET显着降低了丙二醛(MDA)水平(SC的73%)。慢性乙醇分别显着增加过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性和MDA水平(SC的126%和135%),并且还减少了降低的谷胱甘肽(GSH)水平和降低的氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSH / GSSG)比例(分别为81%和分别为SC的38%)。运动训练加乙醇可显着提高CAT和谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)的活性(分别为SC的126%和118%),并降低MDA水平(SC的67%)。在血浆中,乙醇显着提高了CAT活性和MDA水平(分别为SC的173%和221%)。摄入乙醇还会增加血浆中CAT /超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的比例(SC的216%)。训练加乙醇摄入分别显着增加了CAT活性和MDA水平(分别为SC的208%和148%),并提高了CAT / SOD和谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶(GSH-Px)/ SOD的比率(分别为SC的279%和142%) 。数据表明,运动和乙醇摄入的结合导致增强的肝脏CAT和GR活性,从而消除了H2O2并维持了内源性GSH的水平。因此,训练减轻了乙醇引起的肝脏氧化损伤。血浆中CAT / SOD的比率由于长期摄入乙醇而增加了两倍,而由于二者的结合而增加了三倍,可用作氧化应激指标。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: OBJECTIVE:Experience with a new surrogate consent system for patients with Alzheimer's disease is reviewed. It was hypothesized that as patients' cognitive status deteriorated, surrogate consent through a durable power of attorney would become necessary to facilitate continued involvement in clinical research.

    METHOD:The authors retrospectively reviewed the charts of inpatients with Alzheimer's disease who participated in research between January 1989 and December 1994 at the Geriatric Psychiatry Unit of the National Institute of Mental Health. Seventy-nine patients were included. The main outcome measures were the Clinical Dementia Rating, Global Deterioration Scale for primary degenerative dementia, and Mini-Mental State.

    RESULTS:Most patients were in the mild-to-moderate stage of the illness when they chose to participate in research and assign a durable power of attorney (96% scored 2 or less on the Clinical Dementia Rating, and 92% scored 5 or less on the Global Deterioration Scale). On average, the subjects participated in 3.8 (SD = 2.6) studies. For 35 patients with multiple admissions over this period (average = 3.1 years), scores on the Clinical Dementia Rating and Global Deterioration Scale declined by 1.0 and 1.5 points, respectively.

    CONCLUSIONS:The durable power of attorney allows research participation for subjects with Alzheimer's disease at all stages. The linchpin is assignment of a durable power of attorney in the early-to-moderate stage of Alzheimer's disease, before subjects lose the capacity to give informed consent. This approach could also be adapted to patients with cognitive decline due to other debilitating diseases.

    背景与目标: 目标:我们对阿尔茨海默氏病患者使用新的替代同意书系统的经验进行了审查。据推测,随着患者认知状况的恶化,通过持久授权书的替代同意将成为促进继续参与临床研究的必要条件。

    METHOD :作者回顾性地回顾了这一观点。 1989年1月至1994年12月在美国国家心理健康研究所老年精神病学部门参加研究的阿尔茨海默氏病住院病人图表。包括79名患者。主要结局指标为临床痴呆评分,原发性变性痴呆全球恶化量表和小精神状态。

    结果:大多数患者处于轻度至中度阶段他们选择参加研究并分配持久授权书时的疾病发生率(96%的临床痴呆评分为2分或更低,而92%的总体恶化评分为5分或更低)。平均而言,受试者参加了3.8(SD = 2.6)研究。在此期间(平均= 3.1年)的35例多次入院患者,其临床痴呆评分和整体恶化量表的得分分别下降了1.0和1.5分。

    结论:持久的授权书可以使阿尔茨海默氏病受试者在所有阶段都能参与研究。关键是在受试者丧失知情同意的能力之前,在阿尔茨海默氏病的早期至中度阶段分配持久授权书。这种方法还可以适用于因其他使人衰弱的疾病而导致认知功能减退的患者。

    BACKGROUND & AIMS: PURPOSE:To investigate age-correlated radiosensitivity in highly radioresistant lepidopteran pest, Helicoverpa armigera, upon exposure to ionizing radiation and to examine the irradiation impact on stress-molecular responses in F1 (first-filial) progeny of irradiated (100 Gy) male moths in relation to its reproductive behavior. MATERIALS AND METHODS:Efficacy of sub-lethal gamma radiation was evaluated on two markedly apart ontogenic stages, neonates and adult moths. Differential growth, reproductive behavior and stress-indicating molecular responses were examined upto F1 progeny of sub-sterilized moths. Free-radical scavenging enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and Phenoloxidase cascade enzymes, pro-phenoloxidase (PPO), its activating enzyme (PPAE) were studied in irradiated and irradiated plus microbial challenge regimen (dual-stress) by Real-time RT-PCR (reverse-transcription-polymerase-chain-reaction). RESULTS:An inverse correlation of radiosensitivity with developmental age of insect was observed. F1 sterility was higher than parent sterility. F1 progeny exhibited protraction in development and decreased survival upon irradiation. Sex ratio in F1 progeny was skewed towards males. PPO, PPAE, SOD and CAT transcripts were downregulated upon neonate irradiation resulting in enhanced vulnerability of larvae to incidental microbial challenge. These transcripts were upregulated in F1 progeny of sub-sterilized male moths (100 Gy) upon dual-stress. CONCLUSIONS:Irradiation impact on stress-indicating molecular responses in F1 progeny is correlated with its reproductive performance. These observations will permit defining regimen having pragmatic viability of 'F1 sterility technique' for pest suppression. Gamma dose of 100 Gy would ensure balance between induced sterility of males and their field competitiveness. These parameters would facilitate integration of biocontrol strategy with parabiological 'Sterile Insect Release Technique'.
    背景与目标: 目的:研究高度抗辐射的鳞翅目害虫Helicoverpa armigera在暴露于电离辐射后与年龄相关的放射敏感性,并研究辐照对辐照的(100 Gy)雄蛾的F1(第一孝子代)后代的应力-分子响应的影响。与它的生殖行为有关。
    材料与方法:在两个明显分开的个体发育阶段,即新生儿和成年蛾上,评估了亚致死性伽马射线辐射的功效。研究了亚灭菌蛾的F1子代的差异生长,生殖行为和应激指示分子反应。自由基清除酶,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD),过氧化氢酶(CAT)和苯酚氧化酶级联酶,酚氧化酶原(PPO),其活化酶(PPAE)在辐照和辐照加微生物攻击方案(双胁迫)下进行了研究。实时RT-PCR(逆转录聚合酶链反应)。
    结果:放射敏感性与昆虫的发育年龄呈负相关。 F1不育高于父母不育。 F1后代在发育中表现出延期并且在辐射时存活降低。 F1后代的性别比例偏向男性。新生儿辐射后,PPO,PPAE,SOD和CAT转录物被下调,导致幼虫更容易受到偶然的微生物攻击。在双重胁迫下,这些转录本在亚灭菌雄蛾(100 Gy)的F1后代中上调。
    结论:辐照对F1后代中指示胁迫的分子反应的影响与其繁殖性能有关。这些观察结果将有助于确定具有实用的“ F1无菌技术”用于抑制有害生物的方案。 100 Gy的伽马剂量将确保男性不育与其田间竞争能力之间取得平衡。这些参数将促进生物防治策略与副生物“无菌昆虫释放技术”的整合。
