| 3 | Biodegradation of benzo[a]pyrene in soil by Mucor sp.SF06 and Bacillus sp.SB02 co-immobilized on vermiculite显示文摘Two indigenous microorganisms, Bacillus sp. SB02 and Mucor sp. SF06, capable of degrading polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were co-immobilized on vermiculite by physical adsorption and used to degrade benzo[a] pyrene (BaP). The characteristics of BaP degradation by both free and co-immobilized microorganism were then investigated and compared. The removal rate using the immobilized bacterial-fungal mixed consortium was higher than that of the freely mobile mixed consortium. 95.3% of BaP was degraded using the co-immobilized system within 42 d, which was remarkably higher than the removal rate of that by the free strains. The optimal amount of inoculated co-immobilized system for BaP degradation was 2%. The immobilized bacterial-fungal mixed consortium also showed better water stability than the free strains. Kinetics of BaP biodegradation by co-immobilized SF06 and SB02 were also studied. The results demonstrated that BaP degradation could be well described by a zero-order reaction rate equation when the initial BaP concentration was in the range of 10—200 mg/kg. The scanning electronic microscope (SEM) analysis showed that the co-immobilized microstructure was suitable for the growth of SF06 and SB02. The mass transmission process of co-immobilized system in soil is discussed. The results demonstrate the potential for employing the bacterial-fungal mixed consortium, co-immobilized on vermiculite, for in situ bioremediation of BaP. | SU Dan LI Pei-jun FRANK Stagnitti XIONG Xian-zhe | 2006 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2006,18,6: | 29 |

| 10 | Photodegradation of 17α-ethynylestradiol in dissolved humic substances solution:Kinetics,mechanism and estrogenicity variation显示文摘17α-Ethynylestradiol(EE2) in natural waters may cause adverse effects on organisms due to its high estrogenic potency. Laboratory studies were performed to study the effects of a local humic acid(LHA), fulvic acid(LFA) and Aldrich humic acid(AHA) on the photochemical behavior and estrogenic potency of EE2. Here photolytic experiments demonstrated that pure aqueous EE2 could undergo direct and self-sensitized photodegradation at a global rate of 0.0068 hr^(-1).Photodegradation rate of EE2 in 5.0 mg/L dissolved humic substances(DHS) was determined to be 0.0274, 0.0296 and 0.0254 hr^(-1) for LHA, LFA and AHA, respectively. Reactive oxygen species(ROS) and triplet dissolved humic substances(~3DHS*) scavenging experiments indicated that the promotion effect of DHS on EE2 photodegradation was mainly aroused by the reactions of HOU(35%–50%),~1O_2(<10%) andDHS*(22%–34%). However, the photodegradation of EE2 could also be inhibited when DHS exceeded the threshold of 10 mg/L. Three hydroxylation products of EE2 were identified using GC–MS and their formation pathways were also proposed. In vitro estrogenicity tests showed that EE2 was transformed into chemicals without estrogenic potency. These findings could extend our knowledge on the photochemical behaviors of steroid estrogens in sunlit natural waters. | Dong Ren Bin Huang Dan Xiong Huan He Xiangqi Meng Xuejun Pan | 2017 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2017,29,4: | 9 |
| 11 | A deep learning-integrated micro-CT image analysis pipeline for quantifying rice lodging resistance-related traits显示文摘Lodging is a common problemin rice,reducing its yield andmechanical harvesting efficiency.Rice architecture is a key aspect of its domestication and a major factor that limits its high productivity.The ideal rice culm structure,includingmajor_axis_culm,minor axis_culm,andwall thickness_culm,is critical for improving lodging resistance.However,the traditionalmethod ofmeasuring rice culms is destructive,time consuming,and labor intensive.In this study,we used a high-throughput micro-CT-RGB imaging system and deep learning(SegNet)todevelopa high-throughputmicro-CTimageanalysis pipelinethatcanextract 24 riceculmmorphological traits and lodging resistance-related traits.When manual and automatic measurements were compared at themature stage,the mean absolute percentage errors for major_axis_culm,minor_axis_culm,andwall_thickness_culmin 104 indica rice accessionswere 6.03%,5.60%,and 9.85%,respectively,and the R^(2) valueswere 0.799,0.818,and 0.623.We also builtmodels of bending stress using culmtraits at the mature and tillering stages,and the R^(2) values were 0.722 and 0.544,respectively.The modeling results indicated that this method can quantify lodging resistance nondestructively,even at an early growth stage.In addition,we also evaluated the relationships of bending stress toshoot dryweight,culm density,and drought-related traits and found that plants with greater resistance to bending stress had slightly higher biomass,culm density,and culm area but poorer drought resistance.In conclusion,we developed a deep learning-integrated micro-CT image analysis pipeline to accurately quantify the phenotypic traits of rice culms in4.6 min per plant;this pipeline will assist in future high-throughput screening of large rice populations for lodging resistance. | Di Wu Dan Wu Hui Feng Lingfeng Duan Guoxing Dai Xiao Liu Kang Wang Peng Yang Guoxing Chen Alan P.Gay John H.Doonan Zhiyou Niu Lizhong Xiong Wanneng Yang | 2021 | Plant Communications2021,2,2: | 7 |
| 12 | Dynamic monitoring of the cytotoxic effects of protoberberine alkaloids from Rhizoma Coptidis on HepG2 cells using the xCELLigence system显示文摘AIM: To investigate the cytotoxic effects of the six protoberberine alkaloids(PAs) from Rhizoma Coptidis on HepG2 cells. METHOD: A systematic screening was conducted to investigate the dynamic response of HepG2 cells to the PAs using the impedance-based xCELLigence system. Cisplatin was selected as the positive control. The real time, concentration-response curves and the 50% inhibitory concentrations(IC50) were acquired to evaluate the anticancer activity of the PAs. RESULTS: All of the six PAs inhibited cell growth and induce death in HepG2 cells in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. The IC50 values of cisplatin, berberine, columbamine, coptisine, epiberberine, jatrorrhizine, and palmatine were 5.13, 42.33, 226.54, 36.90, 302.72, 383.54, and 456.96 μg·mL-1, respectively. The results obtained using the xCELLigence system corresponded well with those of the conventional methods. CONCLUSION: The xCELLigence system is a reliable and efficient tool for real-time screening of the cytotoxic effect of compounds in cell-based in vitro assays. Coptisine and berberine, with methylenedioxy group at C2 and C3 on the phenyl ring showed stronger effect.than the other four PAs. However, compared with cisplatin, the six PAs didn't show obvious cytotoxic effect on HepG2 cells.These results provided some useful data for the evaluation of the anticancer compounds, and the clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine. | ZHANG Le-Le MA Li-Na YAN Dan ZHANG Cong-En GAO Dan XIONG Yin SHENG Fei-Ya DONG Xiao-Ping XIAO Xiao-He | 2014 | Chinese Journal of Natural Medicines2014,12,6: | 6 |
| 13 | Influence of Danshen Injection on airway inflammation and CD4^+ CD25^+ regulatory T cells of asthmatic rats显示文摘Objective: To investigate the influence of Danshen Injection on airway inflammation and CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells(CD4+CD25+ Tr) of asthmatic rats, and elucidate the possible mechanism of Danshen Injection in treatment of asthma. Methods: 30 Wister rats were randomly divided into control group, asthma group and Danshen Injection treated group. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluids(BALF) were collected, and cytology studies were conducted. Lung tissues were obtained and pathologic analyses were done with hematoxylin and eosin stain(HE). Flow cytometry was used to detect the CD4+CD25+ Tr ratio in peripheral blood mononuclear cells(PBMCs). Results: Total cell, the percentage of lymphocytes, neutrophils and eosinophils(Eos) in BALF of Danshen Injection-treated group were lower than that in asthma group(P ﹤ 0.05, P ﹤ 0.01). Compared with asthma group, less infiltration of inflammatory cells in lung tissues was observed in Danshen Injection-treated group. CD4+CD25+ Tr of asthma group was lower than that of control and Danshen Injection treated group (P ﹤ 0.05). Conclusion: Danshen Injection can suppress airway inflammation of asthmatic rats, probably by increasing the number of CD4+CD25+ Tr. | Keying Xue Yongming Zhou Shengdao Xiong Weining Xiong Dan Li | 2006 | Journal of Nanjing Medical University2006,20,5: | 6 |
| 14 | Tumor-derived neomorphic mutations in ASXL1 impairs the BAP1-ASXL1-FOXK1/K2 transcription network显示文摘Additional sex combs-like 1(ASXL1)interacts with BRCA1-associated protein 1(BAP1)deubiquitinase to oppose the polycomb repressive complex 1(PRC1)-mediated histone H2A ubiquitylation.Germline BAP1 mutations are found in a spectrum of human malignancies,while ASXL1 mutations recurrently occur in myeloid neoplasm and are associated with poor prognosis.Nearly all ASXL1 mutations are heterozygous frameshift or nonsense mutations in the middle or to a less extent the C-terminal region,resulting in the production of C-terminally truncated mutant ASXL1 proteins.How ASXL1 regulates specific target genes and how the C-terminal truncation of ASXL1 promotes leukemogen-esis are unclear.Here,we report that ASXL1 interacts with forkhead transcription factors FOXK1 and FOXK2 to regulate a subset of FOXK1/K2 target genes.We show that the C-terminally truncated mutant ASXL1 proteins are expressed at much higher levels than the wild-type protein in ASXL1 heterozygous leukemia cells,and lose the ability to interact with FOXK1/K2.Specific deletion of the mutant allele eliminates the expression of C-termi-nally truncated ASXL1 and increases the association of wild-type ASXL1 with BAP1,thereby restoring the expression of BAP1-ASXL1-FOXK1/K2 target genes,particularly those involved in glucose metabolism,oxygen sensing,and JAK-STAT3 signaling pathways.In addition to FOXK1/K2,we also identify other DNA-bind-ing transcription regulators including transcription factors(TFs)which interact with wild-type ASXL1,but not C-terminally truncated mutant.Our results suggest that ASXL1 mutations result in neomorphic alleles that contribute to leukemogenesis at least in part through dominantly inhibiting the wild-type ASXL1 from interacting with BAP1 and thereby impairing the function of ASXL1-BAP1-TF in regulating target genes and leukemia cell growth. | Yu-Kun Xia Yi-Rong Zeng Meng-Li Zhang Peng Liu Fang Liu Hao Zhang Chen-Xi He Yi-Ping Sun Jin-Ye Zhang Cheng Zhang Lei Song Chen Ding Yu-Jie Tang Zhen Yang Chen Yang Pu Wang Kun-Liang Guan Yue Xiong Dan Ye | 2021 | Protein & Cell2021,12,7: | 6 |
| 15 | Biopotency Assays:an Integrated Application to Quality Control of Chinese Materia Medica显示文摘The current quality control(QC) pattern for Chinese materia medica(CMM) lacks suitable methods and indicators to evaluate their safety and efficacy effectively, which impedes the smooth development of CMM. In this review, main problems of the current QC pattern for CMM, principally focused on the content determination of constituents,were summarized and the inspiration from the QC of biological products was introduced. With the aim at introducing a suitable tool to the QC of CMM, biopotency assay and its feasibility in the QC pattern for CMM were analyzed and confirmed by relevant researches with years of practice. From the applications of biopotency assays in the QC of CMM in the last 10 years, we propose that biopotency assays should be an integral part of the QC pattern for CMM, for these assays can make the QC indicators related to the clinical safety and efficacy, supplementing the existed QC system of CMM. | Yin Xiong Dan Yan Jia-bo Wang Xiao-he Xiao | 2014 | Chinese Herbal Medicines2014,6,4: | 6 |

| 18 | RIP3/MLKL-mediated neuronal necroptosis induced by methamphetamine at 39℃显示文摘Methamphetamine is one of the most prevalent drugs abused in the world.Methamphetamine abusers usually present with hyperpyrexia (39℃),hallucination and other psychiatric symptoms.However,the detailed mechanism underlying its neurotoxic action remains elusive.This study investigated the effects of methamphetamine + 39℃ on primary cortical neurons from the cortex of embryonic Sprague-Dawley rats.Primary cortex neurons were exposed to 1 mM methamphetamine + 39℃.Propidium iodide staining and lactate dehydrogenase release detection showed that methamphetamine + 39℃ triggered obvious necrosis-like death in cultured primary cortical neurons,which could be partially inhibited by receptor-interacting protein-1 (RIP1) inhibitor Necrostatin-1 partially.Western blot assay results showed that there were increases in the expressions of receptor-interacting protein-3 (RIP3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) in the primary cortical neurons treated with 1 mM methamphetamine + 39℃ for 3 hours.After pre-treatment with RIP3 inhibitor GSK’872,propidium iodide staining and lactate dehydrogenase release detection showed that neuronal necrosis rate was significantly decreased;RIP3 and MLKL protein expression significantly decreased.Immunohistochemistry staining results also showed that the expressions of RIP3 and MLKL were up-regulated in brain specimens from humans who had died of methamphetamine abuse.Taken together,the above results suggest that methamphetamine + 39℃ can induce RIP3/MLKL regulated necroptosis,thereby resulting in neurotoxicity.The study protocol was approved by the Medical Ethics Committee of the Third Xiangya Hospital of Central South University,China (approval numbers: 2017-S026 and 2017-S033) on March 7,2017. | Li-Min Guo Zhen Wang Shi-Ping Li Mi Wang Wei-Tao Yan Feng-Xia Liu Chu-Dong Wang Xu-Dong Zhang Dan Chen Jie Yan Kun Xiong | 2020 | Neural Regeneration Research2020,15,5: | 5 |
| 19 | Tau-Induced Ca^(2+)/Calmodulin-Dependent Protein Kinase-IV Activation Aggravates Nuclear Tau Hyperphosphorylation显示文摘Hyperphosphorylated tau is the major protein component of neurofibrillary tangles in the brains of patients with Alzheimer's disease(AD). However, the mechanism underlying tau hyperphosphorylation is not fully understood. Here, we demonstrated that exogenously expressed wild-type human tau40 was detectable in the phosphorylated form at multiple AD-associated sites in cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions from HEK293 cells.Among these sites, tau phosphorylated at Thr205 and Ser214 was almost exclusively found in the nuclear fraction at the conditions used in the present study. With the intracellular tau accumulation, the Ca^(2+)concentration was significantly increased in both cytoplasmic and nuclear fractions. Further studies using site-specific mutagenesis and pharmacological treatment demonstrated that phosphorylation of tau at Thr205 increased nuclear Ca^(2+)concentration with a simultaneous increase in the phosphorylation of Ca^(2+)/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase IV(Ca MKIV) at Ser196. On the other hand, phosphorylation of tau at Ser214 did not significantly change the nuclear Ca^(2+)/Ca MKIV signaling. Finally, expressing calmodulin-binding protein-4 that disrupts formation ofthe Ca^(2+)/calmodulin complex abolished the okadaic acidinduced tau hyperphosphorylation in the nuclear fraction.We conclude that the intracellular accumulation of phosphorylated tau, as detected in the brains of AD patients, can trigger nuclear Ca^(2+)/Ca MKIV signaling, which in turn aggravates tau hyperphosphorylation. Our findings provide new insights for tauopathies: hyperphosphorylation of intracellular tau and an increased Ca^(2+)concentration may induce a self-perpetuating harmful loop to promote neurodegeneration. | Yu-Ping Wei Jin-Wang Ye Xiong Wang Li-Ping Zhu Qing-Hua Hu Qun Wang Dan Ke Qing Tian Jian-Zhi Wang | 2018 | Neuroscience Bulletin2018,34,2: | 5 |
| 20 | A quality evaluation strategy for Rhizoma coptidis from a variety of different sources using chromatographic fingerprinting combined with biological fingerprinting显示文摘Most of herbal medicines of different sources are used for the same treatment goal in clinic despite their tremendous differences of the quality.Because the clinical efficacy is closely related to the quality of medicines,the implementation of an effective quality control(QC)process is vital.Chemical methods based on content determination and chromatographic fingerprints(CFs)have been recommended as powerful tools.In spite of advances in QC,it is still difficult to determine that which of the chemical compositions can best reflect the correlation with the desired biological activity.Herein,we have focused on the biological activities of multi-source herbal medicines to establish an analytical method.By looking for correlations between the biological activities and their chemical compositions,the method can identify reasonable chemical indicators or chemical methods with biological activity information.In this study,high-performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)and microcalorimetry are combined as a useful method for evaluating the quality of Rhizoma coptidis from different sources.The results of biological fingerprints(BFs)showed that the antibacterial activity sequence of R.coptidis of different sources was Coptis teeta Wall.(CT)>Coptis chinensis Franch.(CC)>Coptis deltoidea C.Y.Cheng et Hsiao(CD).The'spectrum-activity'relationships between CFs and BFs were investigated using the canonical correlation analysis(CCA).Compared with the CCA result of CFs and BFs,the canonical correlation coefficient r1and r2were 0.9974 and 0.9752,respectively.It revealed that there are a close correlation between the spectrum-activity relationships and several of the major anti-bacterial components in the CFs,including jatrorrhizine,coptisine,palmatine,and berberine.Of course,R.coptidis was only a representative of multisource medical plants.The result of the current study will provide an effective reference for evaluating the quality of multisource herbal medicines. | LI JunXian YAN Dan MA LiNa XIONG Yin YAN ChunXia LI BaoCai PENG Cheng XIAO XiaoHe | 2013 | Chinese Science Bulletin2013,58,33: | 5 |
