In this work a new highly fluorescent N,N‐dimethyl benzylamine–palladium(II) yu complex was synthesized by the reaction of [Pd2{(C,N–C6H4CH2N(CH3)2}2(μ‐OAc)]2] with curcumin. The structure of the synthesized complex was characterized using Fourier transform infra‐red (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Fluorescence quantum yield (ΦF) values of the synthesized complex in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile, ethanol, and methanol were 0.160, 0.104, 0.068, and 0.061, respectively. The fluorescence signal of the complex in the organic solvents was very sensitive to the water content of the organic solvent. The quenching effect of water was used to determine trace amounts of water in the heteroatom‐containing organic solvents (ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile) and redox‐active solvents (DMSO). The linear ranges for determination of water (v/v %) in ethanol, DMSO and acetonitrile were found to be 0.03–14.5, 0.08–13.8, and 0.07–18.8, respectively. Two linear ranges were found for determination of water (v/v %) in methanol (0.1–1.2 and 4.7–25.0). Detection limit (DL) values were calculated to be 0.001, 0.05, 0.004, and 0.01 (v/v %) in ethanol, methanol, acetonitrile, and DMSO, respectively. The proposed method overcomes the problems of the standard Karl Fischer method for determination of water in DMSO. In addition, it gave the best DL value for determination of water in ethanol compared with all published papers to date. 相似文献

While the differentiation factors have been widely used to differentiate mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) into various cell types, they can cause harm at the same time. Therefore, it is beneficial to propose methods to differentiate MSCs without factors. Herein, magnetoelectric (ME) nanofibers were synthesized as the scaffold for the growth of MSCs and their differentiation into neural cells without factors. This nanocomposite takes the advantage of the synergies of the magnetostrictive filler, CoFe2O 4 nanoparticles (CFO), and piezoelectric polymer, polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF). Graphene oxide nanosheets were decorated with CFO nanoparticles for a proper dispersion in the polymer through a hydrothermal process. After that, the piezoelectric PVDF polymer, which contained the magnetic nanoparticles, underwent the electrospun process to form ME nanofibers, the ME property of which has the potential to be used in areas such as tissue engineering, biosensors, and actuators. 相似文献

Forty heifers at the late stage of gestation were randomly assigned into five groups. Heifers were balanced for age, weight, and time of calving in each group. Four and 2?weeks before expected time of calving, the heifers were injected with 0?ml (C), 10?ml (T1), 20?ml (T2), 30?ml (T3), and 40?ml (T4) Se and VE supplements, respectively. Each milliliter of the supplement contained of 0.5?mg Se as sodium selenite and 50?IU of dl-alpha-tocopheryl acetate. Blood samples were collected from the heifers 4?weeks before expected calving and at calving day and from the calves at birth and 7?days of age. The serum Se and immunoglobulin G (IgG) concentrations, white blood cell and differential leukocyte counts were measured. The Se concentrations in the sera of the heifers before the injections of Se and VE supplements were the same among the groups (P?>?0.05), but after calving were significantly increased in the treated heifers (P?0.05). Similarly, the serum Se levels of calves of the treated heifers were higher (P?0.05). The Se concentrations in the colostrums of the heifers were affected by treatments (P?0.05). Colostrum and daily milk productions at 8-week lactation were increased in treated heifers compared with the controls (P?0.05). Likewise, the milk somatic cell counts decreased in the treated heifers compared with the controls. The changes of the mean serum IgG levels did not differ among calves (P?>?0.05). The white blood cell counts were higher in calves of heifers in groups T3 and T4 compared with the control group at 7?days of age (P?0.05). 相似文献

In the kidney vitamin D is converted to its active form. Since vitamin D exerts its activity through binding to the nuclear vitamin D receptor (VDR), most genetic studies have primarily focused on variation within this gene. Therefore, analysis of genetic variation in VDR and other vitamin D pathway genes may provide insight into the role of vitamin D in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) etiology. RCC cases (N = 777) and controls (N = 1,035) were genotyped to investigate the relationship between RCC risk and variation in eight target genes. Minimum-p-value permutation (Min-P) tests were used to identify genes associated with risk. A three single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) sliding window was used to identify chromosomal regions with a False Discovery Rate of <10%, where subsequently, haplotype relative risks were computed in Haplostats. Min-P values showed that VDR (p-value = 0.02) and retinoid-X-receptor-alpha (RXRA) (p-value = 0.10) were associated with RCC risk. Within VDR, three haplotypes across two chromosomal regions of interest were identified. The first region, located within intron 2, contained two haplotypes that increased RCC risk by approximately 25%. The second region included a haplotype (rs2239179, rs12717991) across intron 4 that increased risk among participants with the TC (OR = 1.31, 95% CI = 1.09–1.57) haplotype compared to participants with the common haplotype, TT. Across RXRA, one haplotype located 3′ of the coding sequence (rs748964, rs3118523), increased RCC risk 35% among individuals with the variant haplotype compared to those with the most common haplotype. This study comprehensively evaluated genetic variation across eight vitamin D pathway genes in relation to RCC risk. We found increased risk associated with VDR and RXRA. Replication studies are warranted to confirm these findings. 相似文献

Abstract Extended survival of Legionella pneumophila , using both a clinical and an environmental isolate, was studied in drinking water, creek water, and estuarine water microcosms. Legionella populations were monitored by acridine orange direct counts (AODC) and viable count on buffered charcoal yeast extract agar amended with alpha-ketoglutarate (BCYEα). Initial colony counts of the clinical isolate in drinking and creek water microcosms were 2 × 108 cfu/ml and, after incubation for 1.5 years, the plate counts decreased to 3 × 106 cfu/ml. The AODC counts, however, did not change significantly. The clinical isolate in estuarine water decreased in plate counts to 102 (cfu/ml) over the same period. After incubation for 1.5 years at 15°C in the microcosms, Legionella plate counts of creek and drinking water decreased by two logs. Direct microscopic examination of aliquots removed from all microcosms revealed the presence of small bacilli, large bacilli and rare filamentous cells. The environmental isolate demonstrated only one colony morphology upon culture on BCYEα. Interestingly, after four months incubation in the microcosm, upon plating the clinical isolate on BCYEα, two distinct colony types were evident. Examination by immunofluorescent staining employing a monoclonal antibody against L. pneumophila revealed both bacillus and filamentous forms. The total cellular proteins of both morphotypes were examined by sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylyamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE), demonstrating identical protein patterns. Those Legionella cells remaining culturable during 1.5 years of incubation grew rapidly when transferred to BCYEα. Incubation was continued and it was found that some strains of L. pneumophila serogroup 1 can remain viable for longer than 2.4 years under low-nutrient conditions. 相似文献

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has long been recognized as a hypotensive mediator. Little is known regarding the
contribution of polymorphisms in VEGF gene to essential hypertension (EH), however. We aimed to investigate the association
between +405 VEGF C/G single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and occurrence of EH in a sample of patients with diabetes. A study
population of 474 subjects with diabetes of which 45.6% (216) had EH was enrolled in this study. Interviews and physical examinations
were performed in a clinical setting. Subjects were matched in baseline anthropometric and biochemical characteristics except
for total cholesterol. Genotyping of +405 VEGF C/G (rs2010963) SNP was carried out using polymerase chain reaction–restriction
fragment length polymorphism. The allelic distribution of the sample did not violate Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Subjects
with EH had a higher frequency of G allele (P = 0.005). Additionally, those with EH had a significantly higher frequency of GG genotype (P = 0.015). In multivariate logistic regression models controlling for possible confounders, having GG against CC genotype
was associated with an odds ratio of 2.51 (95% CI: 1.44–4.38; P = 0.001). Moreover, presence of each G allele was linked to a 1.58-fold increase in risk of having EH (95% CI: 1.200–2.086;
P = 0.001). In conclusion, +405 VEGF C/G SNP is associated with EH in patients with diabetes, suggesting presence of G allele
and GG or CG genotype confer susceptibility towards EH. 相似文献

Introduction
Folate and one-carbon metabolism are linked to cancer risk through their integral role in DNA synthesis and methylation. Variation in one-carbon metabolism genes, particularly MTHFR, has been associated with risk of a number of cancers in epidemiologic studies, but little is known regarding renal cancer.Methods
Tag single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) selected to produce high genomic coverage of 13 gene regions of one-carbon metabolism (ALDH1L1, BHMT, CBS, FOLR1, MTHFR, MTR, MTRR, SHMT1, SLC19A1, TYMS) and the closely associated glutathione synthesis pathway (CTH, GGH, GSS) were genotyped for 777 renal cell carcinoma (RCC) cases and 1,035 controls in the Central and Eastern European Renal Cancer case-control study. Associations of individual SNPs (n = 163) with RCC risk were calculated using unconditional logistic regression adjusted for age, sex and study center. Minimum p-value permutation (Min-P) tests were used to identify gene regions associated with risk, and haplotypes were evaluated within these genes.Results
The strongest associations with RCC risk were observed for SLC19A1 (Pmin-P = 0.03) and MTHFR (Pmin-P = 0.13). A haplotype consisting of four SNPs in SLC19A1 (rs12483553, rs2838950, rs2838951, and rs17004785) was associated with a 37% increased risk (p = 0.02), and exploratory stratified analysis suggested the association was only significant among those in the lowest tertile of vegetable intake.Conclusions
To our knowledge, this is the first study to comprehensively examine variation in one-carbon metabolism genes in relation to RCC risk. We identified a novel association with SLC19A1, which is important for transport of folate into cells. Replication in other populations is required to confirm these findings. 相似文献10.
