Here, we aimed to systematically investigate the genetic regulatory mechanisms of hepatic steatosis in laying hens.Methods Ninety individuals with the most prominent characteristics were selected from 686 laying hens according to the accumulation of lipid droplets in the liver, and were graded into three groups, including the control, mild hepatic steatosis and severe hepatic steatosis groups. A combination of transcriptome, proteome, acetylome and lipidome analyses, along with bioinformatics analysis were used to screen the key biological processes, modifications and lipids associated with hepatic steatosis.Results The rationality of the hepatic steatosis grouping was verified through liver biochemical assays and RNA-seq. Hepatic steatosis was characterized by increased lipid deposition and multiple metabolic abnormalities. Integration of proteome and acetylome revealed that differentially expressed proteins(DEPs) interacted with differentially acetylated proteins(DAPs) and were involved in maintaining the metabolic balance in the liver. Acetylation alterations mainly occurred in the progression from mild to severe hepatic steatosis, i.e., the enzymes in the fatty acid oxidation and bile acid synthesis pathways were significantly less acetylated in severe hepatic steatosis group than that in mild group(P < 0.05). Lipidomics detected a variety of sphingolipids(SPs) and glycerophospholipids(GPs) were negatively correlated with hepatic steatosis(r ≤-0.5, P < 0.05). Furthermore, the severity of hepatic steatosis was associated with a decrease in cholesterol and bile acid synthesis and an increase in exogenous cholesterol transport.Conclusions In addition to acquiring a global and thorough picture of hepatic steatosis in laying hens, we were able to reveal the role of acetylation in hepatic steatosis and depict the changes in hepatic cholesterol metabolism. The findings provides a wealth of information to facilitate a deeper understanding of the pathophysiology of fatty liver and contributes to the development of therapeutic strategies.展开更多

Here, we report on the factors implicated in the regulation of MMP-9 secretion by salivary gland acinar cells in response to P. gingivalis LPS, and the effect of hormone, ghrelin. We show that the LPS-elicited induction in MMP-9 secretion is associated with the increase in α-tubulin acetylation and the enhancement in MT stabilization, while the modulatory effect of ghrelin is reflected in a decrease in α-tubulin acetylation. Further, the effect of the LPS occurs in concert with up-regulation in Arf-guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF)-mediated Arf1 activation and the TGN recruitment of PKD2, while ghrelin exerts the modulatory effect on Arf-GEF activation. Moreover, we reveal that the LPS-induced up-regulation in MMP-9 secretion is reflected in a marked increase in PKCδ-mediated PKD2 phosphorylation on Ser, while the modulatory effect of ghrelin is manifested by the SFK-PTKs-dependent phosphorylation of PKD2 on Tyr. The findings demonstrate that MT stabilization along with Arf-GEF-mediated Arf1/PKD2 activation play a major role in P. gingivalis LPS-induced up-regulation in salivary gland acinar cell MMP-9 secretion, and point the modulatory mode of action by ghrelin.展开更多

Consequently, e cient removal of VOSiC from biogas that is used as a biofuel is required. In this work, acetylated silica gel(Ac@SG) was synthesized,via treatment of microporous silica gel(SG) with acetic anhydride as an adsorbent, for removal of VOSiC from biogas,and characterized with XRD, SEM–EDS, N2-BET and FT-IR. This Ac@SG adsorbent exhibited a meso-/microporous structure and hydrophobic surface, indicating it was a more e cient adsorbent for removing hexamethyldisiloxane(L2) and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane(D4) from biogas samples than conventional SG. It was found that the adsorption capacities of Ac@SG reached 304 mg L2/g for hexamethyldisiloxane and 916 mg D4/g for octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane at lower temperatures in the experimental range, and water had no significant e ect on its absorption e ciency. The used Ac@SG could be easily regenerated by heating it at 110 °C, and the adsorption capacity of recycled Ac@SG for hexamethyldisiloxane and octamethylcyclotetrasiloxane was kept constant in four recycle adsorption experiments.展开更多

The results show that PLA and ATPS were partially miscible, which was confirmed with the measurement of Tg by dynamic mechanical analysis（DMA） and differrential scanning calorimetry（DSC）. The mechanical and thermal properties of the blends were improved. With increasing the ATPS content, the elongation at break and impact strength were increased. The elongation at break increased from 5% of neat PLA to 25% of the blend PLA/ATPS40. It was found that the cold crystallization behavior of PLA changed evidently by addition of ATPS. The cold crystallization temperature（Tcc） of each of PLA/ATPS blends was found to shift to a lower temperature and the width of exothermic peak became narrow compared with that of neat PLA. The thermogravimetry analysis（TGA） results showed that the peak of derivative weight for ATPS moved to higher temperature with increasing PLA content in PLA/ATPS blends. It can be concluded that PLA could increase the thermal stability of ATPS. The rheological measurement reveals the melt elasticity and viscosity of the blends decreased with the increased concentration of ATPS, which was favorable to the processing properties of PLA.展开更多

METHODS: The CCK-8 experiment and flow cytometry were used to observe the changes in proliferation and cycle of AGS cells treated with trichostatin A (TSA). Real time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to observe expression changes in p21, p53, Bax, Bcl-2, CDK2, and CyclinD1 in gastric cancer cells exposed to TSA. Cytoplasmic proteins in gastric cancer cells before and after TSA treatment were immunoprecipitated with anti-acetylated lysine antibodies, separated using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gel and silver-stained to detect the proteins by mass spectrometry after removal of the gel. The acetylated proteins in AGS cells were enriched with lysine-acetylated antibodies, and a high-resolution mass spectrometer was used to detect the acetylated proteins and modified sites. RESULTS: TSA significantly inhibited AGS cell proliferation, and promoted cell apoptosis, leading to AGS cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 and G2/M phases, especially G0/G1 phase. p21, p53 and Bax gene expression levels in AGS cells were increased with TSA treatment duration; Bcl-2, CDK2, and CyclinD1 gene expression levels were decreased with TSA treatment duration. Two unknown protein bands, 72 kDa (before exposure to TSA) and 28 kDa (after exposure to TSA), were identified by silver-staining after immunoprecipitation of AGS cells with the lysine-acetylated monoclonal antibodies. Mass spectrometry showed that the 72 kDa protein band may be PKM2 and the 28 kDa protein band may be ATP5O. The acetylated proteins and modified sites in AGS cells were determined. CONCLUSION: TSA can inhibit gastric cancer cell proliferation, which possibly activated signaling pathways in a variety of tumor-associated factors. ATP5O was obviously acetylated in AGS cells following TSA treatment.展开更多

One day following injection, there was a dramatic decrease in acetylated histone 3 expression in spinal cord dorsal horn neurons. However, on day 7, expression recovered in adjuvant-injected rats. While acetylated histone 3 labeling was present in dorsal horn neurons, it was more abundant in astrocytes and microglial cells. The recovery of acetylated histone 3 expression was associated with a shift in expression of the protein from neurons to glial cells. Morphine injection significantly upregulated the expression of acetylated histone 3 in spinal cord dorsal horn neurons and glial cells 1 day after injection, especially in astrocytes, preventing the transient downregulation. Our results indicate that inflammatory pain induces a transient downregulation of acetylated histone 3 in the spinal cord dorsal horn at an early stage following adjuvant injection, and that this effect can be reversed by morphine. Thus, the downregulation of acetylated histone 3 may be involved in the development of inflammatory pain.展开更多

A.) is 30% , 20% , 10%, 0%, respectively) and Glycol chitosan (GC, D.A. is 0%) were investigated and compared. Results showed that chitosan were similar to salicylic acid (SA), and could induce resistance reaction, but the reaction was influenced by the degree of acetylation of chitosan. Fully deacetylated chitosans, 10B and GC, elicited chitinase activity, but partially acetylated chitosan, 7B, 8B and 9B, inhibited chitinase activity. Phenyalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) was also elicited. Elicitor activity increased with on increasing degree of acetylation, 7B induced highest PAL activity among all chitosans. All chitosans induced peroxidase (POD) in a similar level. After elicited by glycol chitosan, like SA treatment, the seedlings increased disease resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum significantly.展开更多

Lysine acetylation regulates various metabolic processes, such as fatty acid oxidation, Krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, angiogenesis and so on. Thus disorders of lysine acetylation may be correlated with obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, which are termed as the metabolic complication. With accumulating studies on proteomic acetylation, lysine acetylation also involves in cell immune status and degenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer’s disease and Huntington’s disease. This review primarily summarizes the current studies of lysine acetylation in metabolism modulation and in metabolism-related diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and fat metabolism disorder.展开更多

Calamus manan of 10 and 13 years old under rubber tree canopy was acetylated to different levels by reaction times （0.25 to 30 hours） and was tested for soft rot decay for 32 weeks. Acetylated rattan at decay protection thresholds of 15.4% and 16.2% weight gain （WG） were fully protected, as shown by both weight loss and strength loss criteria. The static bending properties of untreated rattan decayed by soft rot were significantly lower than for acetylated rattan.展开更多

Adsorption is a rapid and cost effective process to minimize the environmental impacts of oil spills and cleanup these pollutants. In this work, the crude oil sorption capacity was examined with raw sugarcane bagasse and acetylated sugarcane bagasse. Results show that the acetylated bagasse was significantly more oleophilic than the raw bagasse and acetylation reaction can increase bagasse oil sorption ability by about 90%. The maximum sorption capacities of acetylated bagasse were obtained about 11.3 g and 9.1 g in dry system(crude oil sorption) and oil layer sorption, respectively. The physicochemical characteristics of the sorbents such as composition, water solubility, moisture content and density were measured according to ASTM standard methods. Also Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) of raw and acetylated bagasse was performed to investigate the effect of acetylation on sugarcane bagasse structure.展开更多

文摘Matrix metalloproteinas-9 (MMP-9) is a glycosylated endopeptidase, and hence its processing between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi and trans-Golgi (TGN) network remains under a strict control of factors that affect the microtubule (MT) stabilization, and the recruitment and activation of coat and cargo proteins, including ADP-ribosylation factors (Arfs) and protein kinase D (PKD). Here, we report on the factors implicated in the regulation of MMP-9 secretion by salivary gland acinar cells in response to P. gingivalis LPS, and the effect of hormone, ghrelin. We show that the LPS-elicited induction in MMP-9 secretion is associated with the increase in α-tubulin acetylation and the enhancement in MT stabilization, while the modulatory effect of ghrelin is reflected in a decrease in α-tubulin acetylation. Further, the effect of the LPS occurs in concert with up-regulation in Arf-guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF)-mediated Arf1 activation and the TGN recruitment of PKD2, while ghrelin exerts the modulatory effect on Arf-GEF activation. Moreover, we reveal that the LPS-induced up-regulation in MMP-9 secretion is reflected in a marked increase in PKCδ-mediated PKD2 phosphorylation on Ser, while the modulatory effect of ghrelin is manifested by the SFK-PTKs-dependent phosphorylation of PKD2 on Tyr. The findings demonstrate that MT stabilization along with Arf-GEF-mediated Arf1/PKD2 activation play a major role in P. gingivalis LPS-induced up-regulation in salivary gland acinar cell MMP-9 secretion, and point the modulatory mode of action by ghrelin.

The thermogravimetry analysis（TGA） results showed that the peak of derivative weight for ATPS moved to higher temperature with increasing PLA content in PLA/ATPS blends. It can be concluded that PLA could increase the thermal stability of ATPS. The rheological measurement reveals the melt elasticity and viscosity of the blends decreased with the increased concentration of ATPS, which was favorable to the processing properties of PLA.

文摘AIM: To explore the effect of lysine acetylation in related proteins on regulation of the proliferation of gastric cancer cells, and determine the lysine-acetylated proteins and the acetylated modified sites in AGS gastric cancer cells. METHODS: The CCK-8 experiment and flow cytometry were used to observe the changes in proliferation and cycle of AGS cells treated with trichostatin A (TSA). Real time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting were used to observe expression changes in p21, p53, Bax, Bcl-2, CDK2, and CyclinD1 in gastric cancer cells exposed to TSA. Cytoplasmic proteins in gastric cancer cells before and after TSA treatment were immunoprecipitated with anti-acetylated lysine antibodies, separated using sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis gel and silver-stained to detect the proteins by mass spectrometry after removal of the gel. The acetylated proteins in AGS cells were enriched with lysine-acetylated antibodies, and a high-resolution mass spectrometer was used to detect the acetylated proteins and modified sites. RESULTS: TSA significantly inhibited AGS cell proliferation, and promoted cell apoptosis, leading to AGS cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 and G2/M phases, especially G0/G1 phase. p21, p53 and Bax gene expression levels in AGS cells were increased with TSA treatment duration; Bcl-2, CDK2, and CyclinD1 gene expression levels were decreased with TSA treatment duration. Two unknown protein bands, 72 kDa (before exposure to TSA) and 28 kDa (after exposure to TSA), were identified by silver-staining after immunoprecipitation of AGS cells with the lysine-acetylated monoclonal antibodies. Mass spectrometry showed that the 72 kDa protein band may be PKM2 and the 28 kDa protein band may be ATP5O. The acetylated proteins and modified sites in AGS cells were determined. CONCLUSION: TSA can inhibit gastric cancer cell proliferation, which possibly activated signaling pathways in a variety of tumor-associated factors. ATP5O was obviously acetylated in AGS cells following TSA treatment.

文摘In this study, a rat model of inflammatory pain was produced by injecting complete Freund’s adjuvant into the hind paw, and the expression of acetylated histone 3 in the spinal cord dorsal horn was examined using immunohistochemical staining. One day following injection, there was a dramatic decrease in acetylated histone 3 expression in spinal cord dorsal horn neurons. However, on day 7, expression recovered in adjuvant-injected rats. While acetylated histone 3 labeling was present in dorsal horn neurons, it was more abundant in astrocytes and microglial cells. The recovery of acetylated histone 3 expression was associated with a shift in expression of the protein from neurons to glial cells. Morphine injection significantly upregulated the expression of acetylated histone 3 in spinal cord dorsal horn neurons and glial cells 1 day after injection, especially in astrocytes, preventing the transient downregulation. Our results indicate that inflammatory pain induces a transient downregulation of acetylated histone 3 in the spinal cord dorsal horn at an early stage following adjuvant injection, and that this effect can be reversed by morphine. Thus, the downregulation of acetylated histone 3 may be involved in the development of inflammatory pain.
文摘The effects to elicit resistance reaction on oilseed rape (Brassica napus L. cv Xinongchangjiao ) by four partially N-acetylated chitosan 7B, 8B, 9B and 10B (Degree of acetylation (D. A.) is 30% , 20% , 10%, 0%, respectively) and Glycol chitosan (GC, D.A. is 0%) were investigated and compared. Results showed that chitosan were similar to salicylic acid (SA), and could induce resistance reaction, but the reaction was influenced by the degree of acetylation of chitosan. Fully deacetylated chitosans, 10B and GC, elicited chitinase activity, but partially acetylated chitosan, 7B, 8B and 9B, inhibited chitinase activity. Phenyalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) was also elicited. Elicitor activity increased with on increasing degree of acetylation, 7B induced highest PAL activity among all chitosans. All chitosans induced peroxidase (POD) in a similar level. After elicited by glycol chitosan, like SA treatment, the seedlings increased disease resistance to Sclerotinia sclerotiorum significantly.
文摘Two new chiral stationary phases, 2,3 di O acetyl 6 O trimethylsilyl β cyclodextrin (DATBCD) and 2,6 di O trimethylsilyl 3 O acetyl β cyclodextrin(DTABCD), were synthesized, their structures were identified by means of infrared and NMR spectra. Capillary columns were coated with the two stationary phases by dynamic method.

文摘Lysine acetylation is a reversible posttranslational modifcation, an epigenetic phenomenon, referred to as transfer of an acetyl group from acetyl CoA to lysine ε- amino group of targeted protein, which is modulated by acetyltransferases (histone/ lysine (K) acetyltransferases, HATs/KATs) and deacetylases (histone/lysine (K) deacetylases, HDACs/KDACs). Lysine acetylation regulates various metabolic processes, such as fatty acid oxidation, Krebs cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, angiogenesis and so on. Thus disorders of lysine acetylation may be correlated with obesity, diabetes and cardiovascular disease, which are termed as the metabolic complication. With accumulating studies on proteomic acetylation, lysine acetylation also involves in cell immune status and degenerative diseases, for example, Alzheimer’s disease and Huntington’s disease. This review primarily summarizes the current studies of lysine acetylation in metabolism modulation and in metabolism-related diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and fat metabolism disorder.
文摘We investigated the resistance of acetylated rattan against soft rot and other soil inhabiting micro-organisms in comparison with wood of beech and Scots pine. Calamus manan of 10 and 13 years old under rubber tree canopy was acetylated to different levels by reaction times （0.25 to 30 hours） and was tested for soft rot decay for 32 weeks. Acetylated rattan at decay protection thresholds of 15.4% and 16.2% weight gain （WG） were fully protected, as shown by both weight loss and strength loss criteria. The static bending properties of untreated rattan decayed by soft rot were significantly lower than for acetylated rattan.

文摘Objective To describe the global profiles of acetylated proteins in the brains of scrapie agents 139Aand ME7-infected mice collected at mid-early,mid-late,and terminal stages.Methods The acetylated proteins from the cortex regions of scrapie agent(139A-and ME7)-infected mice collected at mid-early(80 days postinfection,dpi),mid-late(120 dpi),and terminal(180 dpi) stages were extracted,and the global profiles of brain acetylated proteins were assayed with proteomic mass spectrometry.The proteins in the infected mice showing 1.5-fold higher or lower levels than that of agematched normal controls were considered as differentially expressed acetylated peptides(DEAPs).Results A total of 118,42,and 51 DEAPs were found in the brains of 139A-80,139A-120,and 139A-180dpi mice,respectively.Meanwhile,390,227,and 75 DEAPs were detected in the brains of ME7-80,ME7-120,and ME7-180 dpi mice,respectively.The overwhelming majority of DEAPs in the mid-early stage were down-regulated,and more portions of DEAPs in the mid-late and late stages were up-regulated.Approximately 22.1%(328/1,485) of acetylated peptides mapped to 74 different proteins were mitochondrial associated.Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis identified 39(80dpi),13(120 dpi),and 10(180 dpi) significantly changed pathways in 139A-infected mice.Meanwhile,55,25,and 18 significantly changed pathways were observed in the 80,120,and 180 dpi samples of139A-and ME7-infected mice(P < 0.05),respectively.Six pathways were commonly involved in all tested samples.Moreover,many steps in the citrate cycle(tricarboxylic acid cycle) were affected,represented by down-regulated acetylation for relevant enzymes in the mid-early stage and upregulated acetylation in the mid-late and late stages.Conclusion Our data here illustrated the changes in the global profiles for brain acetylated proteins during prion infection,showing remarkably inhibited acetylation in the early stage and relatively enhanced acetylation in the late stage.
文摘In the recent decades oil spills in the aquatic environments are one of the major sources of environmental pollutions, which are steadily growing with the increase in oil consumption. Adsorption is a rapid and cost effective process to minimize the environmental impacts of oil spills and cleanup these pollutants. In this work, the crude oil sorption capacity was examined with raw sugarcane bagasse and acetylated sugarcane bagasse. Results show that the acetylated bagasse was significantly more oleophilic than the raw bagasse and acetylation reaction can increase bagasse oil sorption ability by about 90%. The maximum sorption capacities of acetylated bagasse were obtained about 11.3 g and 9.1 g in dry system(crude oil sorption) and oil layer sorption, respectively. The physicochemical characteristics of the sorbents such as composition, water solubility, moisture content and density were measured according to ASTM standard methods. Also Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR) of raw and acetylated bagasse was performed to investigate the effect of acetylation on sugarcane bagasse structure.
