Background Both photosynthetic pigments and chloroplasts in plant leaf cells play an important role in deciding on the photosynthetic capacity and efficiency in plants. Systematical investigating the regulatory mechanism of chloroplast development and chlorophyll (Chl) content variation is necessary for clarifying the photosynthesis mechanism for crops. Objective This study aims to explore the critical regulatory mechanism of leaf color mutation in a yellow–green leaf sesame mutant Siyl-1. Methods We performed the genetic analysis of the yellow-green leaf color mutation using the F2 population of the mutant Siyl-1. We compared the morphological structure of the chloroplasts, chlorophyll content of the three genotypes of the mutant F2 progeny. We performed the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and compared the protein expression variation between the mutant progeny and the wild type. Results Genetic analysis indicated that there were 3 phenotypes of the F2 population of the mutant Siyl-1, i.e., YY type with light-yellow leaf color (lethal); Yy type with yellow-green leaf color, and yy type with normal green leaf color. The yellowgreen mutation was controlled by an incompletely dominant nuclear gene, Siyl-1. Compared with the wild genotype, the chloroplast number and the morphological structure in YY and Yy mutant lines varied evidently. The chlorophyll content also significantly decreased (P < 0.05). The 2-DE comparison showed that there were 98 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) among YY, Yy, and yy lines. All the 98 DEPs were classified into 5 functional groups. Of which 82.7% DEPs proteins belonged to the photosynthesis and energy metabolism group. Conclusion The results revealed the genetic character of yellow-green leaf color mutant Siyl-1. 98 DEPs were found in YY and Yy mutant compared with the wild genotype. The regulation pathway related with the yellow leaf trait mutation in sesame was analyzed for the first time. The findings supplied the basic theoretical and gene basis for leaf color and chloroplast development mechanism in sesame.

Protein glycation inhibitors from Polygonatum odoratum rhizomes were investigated using a bioassay-guided procedure to characterize active compounds for preventing and treating diabetic complications. The EtOH extract and soluble fractions were evaluated using an in vivo model of renal advanced glycation end-product (AGE) accumulation in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats and an in vitro bovine serum albumin-glucose assay. Three homoisoflavanones 3-(4’-hydroxybenzyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-6-methyl-8-methoxychroman-4-one (1), 3-(4’-hydroxybenzyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-6,8-dimethylchroman-4-one (2), and 3-(4’-methoxybenzyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-6-methyl-8-methoxychroman-4-one (3), isolated from the active CHCl3-soluble fraction of the EtOH extract, were subjected to in vitro bioassays to evaluate their inhibitory activities against AGE formation. All the isolates inhibited AGE formation more effectively than the positive control, aminoguanidine. These results indicate that pending further study these compounds could be used as novel natural product drug for mitigating diabetic complications.

Autophagy is a self-digestion process, wrapping cytoplasmic proteins or organelles to form vesicles for degradation in lysosomes. The process plays an important role in the maintenance of intracellular homostasis. Here we overview articles on autophagy and cancer/tumors in Pubmed and found 327 articles. Autophagy exists in many tumors and is involved in cell malignant transformation and tumor cell growth. In early phases of tumorigenesis, autophagy clears the abnormally folded proteins and dysfunctional organelles such as mitochondria. Autophagy can also inhibit cell stress responses and prevent genetic damage. When a tumor develops, autophagy helps tumor cells survive nutritional deficiencies and hypoxic conditions. Studies of autophagy in the occurrence and progression of tumors should provide new therapeutic strategies for tumors.

Cold stress has been shown to induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which can elicit a potentially damaging oxidative burden on cellular metabolism. Here, the expression of a metallothionein gene (AtMT2a) was upregulated under low temperature and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) stresses. The Arabidopsis T-DNA insertion mutant, mt2a, exhibited more sensitivity to cold stress compared to WT plants during the seed germination, and H2O2 levels in mt2a mutant were higher than that in WT plants during the cold stress. Synthetic GFP fused to AtMT2a was observed to be localized in cytosol. These results indicated that AtMT2a functions in tolerance against cold stress by mediating the ROS balance in the cytosol. Interestingly, mRNA level of AtMT2a was increased in seedlings of Arabidopsis cat2 mutant after cold treatment compared to WT seedlings, and overexpression of AtMT2a in cat2 could improve CAT activity under chilling stress. Moreover, the enzymatic activity of CAT in mt2a was higher than that in WT plants after cold treatment, suggesting that AtMT2a and CAT might complement each other in antioxidative process potentially in Arabidopsis. Taken together, our results provided a novel insight into the relationship between MTs and antioxidative enzymes in the ROS-scavenging system in plants.

The number of patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN) is still on the rise worldwide, and this requires the development of new therapeutic strategies. Recent reports have highlighted genetic factors in the treatment of DN. Herein, we aimed to study the roles of long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) plasmacytoma variant translocation 1 (PVT1) and histone 3 lysine 27 trimethylation (H3K27me3) in DN. A model of DN was established by inducing diabetes in mice with streptozotocin. Mouse podocyte clone 5 (MPC5) podocytes and primary podocytes were cultured in normal and high glucose media to observe cell morphology and to quantify PVT1 expression. The roles of PVT1 and enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) were validated via loss-of-function and gain-of-function in vitro experiments to identify the interactions among PVT1, EZH2, and forkhead box A1 (FOXA1). The podocyte damage and apoptosis due to PVT1 and FOXA1 were verified with in vivo experiments. PVT1 was highly expressed in MPC5 and primary podocytes in DN patients and in cultures grown in high glucose medium. A large number of CpG (C-phosphate-G) island sites were predicted at the FOXA1 promoter region, where PVT1 recruited EZH2 to promote the recruitment of H3K27me3. The silencing of PVT1 or the overexpression of FOXA1 relieved the damage and inhibited the apoptosis of podocytes in DN, as was evidenced by the upregulated expression of synaptopodin and podocin, higher expression of Bcl-2, and lower expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3. The key findings of this study collectively indicate that the suppression of lncRNA PVT1 exerts inhibitory effects on podocyte damage and apoptosis via FOXA1 in DN, which is of clinical significance.

Candida rugosa lipase (CRL) was immobilized on an aminopropyl-functionalized MSU-H type mesoporous silica (AFMS) through physical adsorption and a covalent cross-linking. It was evaluated as a class of biocatalysts in the esterification of conjugated linoleic acid (CLA) isomers with ethanol. AFMS materials with varied content of aminopropyl were prepared by a simple co-condensation at near neutral pH condition. Introduction of aminopropyl chains and CRL molecules onto the AFMS supports was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra. CRL was immobilized on the AFMS through electrostatic and covalent interactions. The covalently cross-linked CRL gave a loading amount of 34.3mg CRL/g-support and a hydrolytic activity of 2471.5U/g-catalyst. It exhibited high operational stability and remained 23.9-27.5% of total esterification in 32 h consecutive four runs in the esterification of CLA with ethanol. Moreover, the immobilized CRLs catalyzed 2.8-3.8 times of esterification of cis-(c)9, trans-(t)11- CLA faster than that of t10, c12-CLA.

The Electro-Fenton process can generate reactive oxygen species capable of oxidizing refractory organiccontaminants. However, low regeneration efficiency of Fe2+ restricts its application. Herein, hydroxylamine(HA) was added into the Electro-Fenton (HA/Electro-Fenton) process to accelerate the transformationof Fe3+ to Fe2+. Using dimethyl phthalate (DMP) as target contaminant, the HA/Electro-Fenton systemalleviated the two-stage reaction process and accelerated the removal of DMP in the pH range of 2.0–6.0. With improving DMP concentration from 5 mg L-1 to 50 mg L-1, their degradation rate increased in theHA/Electro-Fenton system, while decreased in the Electro-Fenton system. The addition of HA had negligibleeffect on electro-generation of H2O2, but facilitate the redox cycle of Fe3+/Fe2+ and the generation ofhydroxyl radicals, thus improving the degradation of DMP. The final transformation products of HA wereN2, N2O, and NO3. The presence of PO4 3 improved DMP degradation, while Cl and organic matters inhibitedDMP removal in varying degrees. This study provided useful reference to solve the low efficiency ofFe3+/Fe2+ cycle and expand the pH application range in the Electro-Fenton process.

We have found that the previously uncharacterized bone morphogenetic protein-9 (BMP9) is one of the most osteogenic factors. However, it is unclear if BMP9 cross-talks with TGFβ1 during osteogenic differentiation. Using the recombinant BMP9 adenovirus, we find that low concentration of rhTGFβ1 synergistically induces alkaline phosphatase activity in BMP9-transduced C3H10T1/2 cells and produces more pronounced matrix mineralization. However, higher concentrations of TGFβ1 inhibit BMP9-induced osteogenic activity. Real-time PCR and Western blotting indicate that BMP9 in combination with low dose of TGFβ1 potentiates the expression of later osteogenic markers osteopontin, osteocalcin and collagen type 1 (COL1a2), while higher concentrations of TGFβ1 decrease the expression of osteopontin and osteocalcin but not COL1a2. Cell cycle analysis reveals that TGFβ1 inhibits C3H10T1/2 proliferation in BMP9-induced osteogenesis and restricts the cells in G0/G1 phase. Our findings strongly suggest that TGFβ1 may exert a biphasic effect on BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. [BMB Reports 2012; 45(9): 509-514]
