Promoting effect and recovery activity from physical stress of the fruit of Morus alba
Authors: Hwang Keum Hee , Kim Young‐Kyoon
Published: December 2008

We examined the effects of the fruit of M. alba extracts on the changes of the monoamine oxidase (MAO) activities during and after the physical exercise in rat. Each activity was measured by used serotonin(5‐HT) and benzylamine as substrate. Lactate dehydrogenase(LDH) activity and the concentrations of lactate in blood which were clinical indexes of physical exercise were also determined to compare with the relation of MAO activities. Those activities during and after the physical exercise have different tendency in each other enzyme. MAO‐A activity was sharply decreased with stress by physical activities compared to the normal group, whereas MAO‐B activity was increased for 60 minutes after exercise. All of these indexes were recovered to normal state by oral administration of extract of M. alba. These results of this study suggested M. alba may modulate the MAO activities during exercise and promote the capability of physical activities and show anti‐stress effect. In general, MAO inhibitors have been used drugs for the purpose of treatment Parkinson's disease, dementia, deprression. These results can apply to produce the health and functional foods that have modulating effects for these diseases.

Published: December 2008

Antioxidant activity and biological properties of ferulic acid (FA) are well recognized. This study was designed to estimate the potential utility of FA administered orally at low dosage for improvement of hyperglycemia in diabetes. With this aim we have evaluated the hypoglycemic effect of FA in two type diabetic animal models: (1) streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic mice, a model of insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM); (2) KK‐Ay mice, a model of non‐insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). In addition, we measured the production of thiobarbituric acid‐reactive substances (TBARS) in brown adipose tissues of diabetic mice at the end of FA feeding experiment. FA at 0.01% and 0.1% of basal diet showed to suppress significantly blood glucose levels in STZ‐induced diabetic mice. In KK‐Ay mice 0.05% FA suppressed effectively blood glucose levels. In addition, FA inhibited the lipid peroxidation in brown adipose tissue of diabetic mice. Taken together, these findings suggest that dietary FA may be useful in alleviating oxidative stress and attenuating the hyperglycemic response associated with diabetes.
Radical scavenging mechanism of phenol carboxylic acids: Reaction of protocatechuic esters
Authors: Saito Shizuka , Okamoto Yasuko , Kawabata Jun
Published: December 2008

Solvent‐dependency of the antiradical reaction of protocatechuic acid (3,4‐dihydroxybenzoic acid, PA) and its esters has been investigated. In aprotic solvents, methyl protocatechuate (PAMe) was readily oxidized by two molar equivalents of DPPH radical and converted to protocatechuquinone methyl ester (PQMe). On the other hand, in alcoholic solvents such as methanol, PAMe rapidly consumed five radicals in 30 min and changed to complex oxidized mixtures. A 1H‐NMR analysis of the reaction mixture of PAMe and DPPH radical in methanol showed that PAMe was rapidly converted to PQMe and its 3‐hemiacetal. In addition, a signal of 2‐methoxy‐PQMe 3‐hemiacetal was also detected in the reaction mixture. The results suggested that PQMe undergoes a nucleophilic attack by the solvent alcohol molecule at the C‐2 of the ring in methanol, leading to a regeneration of catechol structure, which accounts well for the higher DPPH radical scavenging activity of PAMe in alcohols than in aprotic solvents.
Successful removal of p‐quinone with chitosan in an aqueous phase in relation to degree of deacetylation
Authors: Takahashi Tomoki , Imai Masanao , Suzuki Isao
Published: December 2008

Phenol oxidant is successfully removed by using chitosan particles in the aqueous phase. Removal of p‐quinone by chitosan from crab shells was investigated kinetically from molecular weight (MW) of chitosan, deacetylation degree (DD) and reaction temperature. The rate constant assuming first‐ordered reaction on removal of p‐quinone in aqueous phase primarily depended on the MW of chitosan, not on the DD. Quantities of chitosan exceeding 5 × 105 MW are able to obtain a sufficiently high rate constant (10−3 s−1). At higher temperatures, higher rate constants were obtained in the entire experimental MW and DD. The activation energy obtained was 43.8 kJ·mol−1.
The regulation and function of phosphate in the human body
Authors: Takeda Eiji , Taketani Yutaka , Sawada Naoki , Sato Tadatoshi , Yamamoto Hironori
Published: December 2008

Inorganic phosphate (Pi) is required for cellular function and skeletal mineralization. Serum Pi level is maintained within a narrow range through a complex interplay between intestinal absorption, exchange with intracellular and bone storage pools, and renal tubular reabsorption. Pi is abundant in the diet, and intestinal absorption of Pi is efficient and minimally regulated. The kidney is a major regulator of Pi homeostasis and can increase or decrease its Pi reabsorptive capacity to accommodate Pi need. The crucial regulated step in Pi homeostasis is the transport of Pi across the renal proximal tubule. Type II sodium‐dependent phosphate (Na/Pi) cotransporter (NPT2) is the major molecule in the renal proximal tubule and is regulated by hormones and nonhormonal factors.

Recent studies of inherited and acquired hypophosphatemia which exhibit similar biochemical and clinical features, have led to the identification of novel genes, phosphate regulating gene with homologies to endopeptidases on the X chromosome (PHEX) and fibroblast growth factor‐23 (FGF‐23), that play a role in the regulation of Pi homeostasis. The PHEX gene encodes an endopeptidase, predominantly expressed in bone and teeth but not in kidney. FGF‐23 may be a substrate of this endopeptidase and inhibit renal Pi reabsorption.

In a survey in the United States and in Japan, the amount of phosphorus from food is gradually increasing. It is thought that excess amounts of phosphorus intake for long periods are a strong factor in bone impairment and ageing. The restriction of phosphorus intake seems to be important under low calcium intake to keep QOL on high level.
Effects of phenolics in Empire apples on hydrogen peroxide‐induced inhibition of gap‐junctional intercellular communication
Authors: Kang Nam Joo , Lee Ki Won , Lee Sang Jun , Lee Chang Yong , Lee Hyong Joo
Published: December 2008

The present study investigated antioxidant and antitumor‐promoting activities of major phenolic phytochemicals of apples. The contents of each antioxidant in Empire apples was quantified and their contributions to total antioxidant activity of apples were determined using assay for inhibition of 12‐O‐tetradecanoylphorbol‐13‐acetate‐induced superoxide radical generation in cell culture model and expressed in vitamin C equivalent antioxidant capacity (VCEAC). The estimated contribution of major phenolics and vitamin C to total anitoxidant capacity of 100 g fresh Empire apples is as follows: quercetin (60.05 VCEAC) > chlorogenic acid (12.32) > phloretin (7.41) > procyanidin B2 (7.22) > vitamin C (6.61) > epicatechin (5.10) in superoxide radical scavenging assay. Recent reports suggest that the mechanism of carcinogenic process of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) may be associated with the inhibition of gap‐junctional intercellular communication (GJIC), which is involved in tumor promotion process. Apple extracts showed the protective effects against the inhibition of GJIC by H2O2 in a dose‐dependent manner. Quercetin exerted the strongest protective effects among major antioxidants in apples on H2O2‐induced inhibition of GJIC, following epicatechin, procyanidin B2, and vitamin C, while chlorogenic acid and phloretin had no effects. Our results indicate that cancer chemopreventive activity of apples is associated with the combined antioxidant capacity and antitumor‐promoting activities of diverse antioxidants.

Authors: Fukuda Itsuko , Sakane Iwao , Yabushita Yoshiyuki , Sawamura Shin‐Ichi , Kanazawa Kazuki , Ashida Hitoshi
Published: December 2008

Dioxins cause various adverse effects through binding to an aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) and transformation of the receptor. In this study, we investigated whether black tea extract suppresses AhR transformation. Dried black tea leaves were extracted with 75% ethanol, and the extract was pretreated to the rat liver cytosol fraction 10 min prior to addition of 2,3,7,8‐tetrachlorodibenzo‐p‐dioxin (TCDD). Transformed AhR was detected by electrophoretic gel mobility shift assay. Black tea extract suppressed AhR transformation in a dose‐dependent manner, and the IC50value against 1 nM TCDD‐induced AhR transformation was 8.9 μ/ml. The result suggests that intake of black tea has a potential to suppress the AhR transformation, leading protection from dioxin toxicity.
Comparison of estrogen and genistein in their antigenotoxic effects, apoptosis and signal transduction protein expression patterns
Authors: Park Ock Jin
Published: December 2008

The antigenotoxic effects of estrogen and genistein (isoflavones) were compared by measuring the degree of protection against plasmid DNA strand breakage induced by peroxyl free radicals using the DNA strand scission assay with pBR322 DNA. Isoflavones decreased DNA strand breakage by AAPH radical treatment at the all of three concentrations tested (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 μ/ml) with the range of 89.5% to 99.6%. Compared to genistein, estrogen was not as effective as genistein showing 46.9% to 29.6% protection, and this protective effect was decreased as estrogen concentrations increased from 0.1 to 0.3 μ/ml. DNA ladder experiments showed that genistein induced apoptosis in cultured cell lines, whereas estrogen did not induce any apoptosis. The effects of cell signal trandsduction protein expression patterns were compared between estrogen and genistein. The increased expression of cyclin B1 by estrogen was tampered by genistein at the highest concentration. Antigenotoxic and antiproliferative effects of genistein shown in this study support the hypothesis that it has a chemopreventive effect against particular types of cancers.
Lentinan from shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) suppresses expression of cytochrome P450 1A subfamily in the mouse liver

Published: December 2008

Induction of xenobiotics metabolizing enzymes is related to the formation and chemoprevention of cancer. Since cytochrome P450s (CYPs) including CYP1A subfamily metabolize certain pro‐carcinogens to their ultimate forms, down‐regulation of CYP1As by food factors leads to the prevention of cancer. Mushroom polysaccharides, especially β‐glucans such as lentinan from Lentinus edodes, possess the anti‐tumor and immunomodulating activities through the cytokine production from immunocytes. Recent our studies have demonstrated that lentinan suppresses hepatic CYP1As expression in the both constitutive and inducible levels through the production of tumor necrosis factor‐α and an increase in the DNA‐binding activity of nuclear factor‐κB. This paper discusses on the effective lentinan dosage and route of administration for suppression of CYP1As.
3D collagen cultures under well‐defined dynamic strain: A novel strain device with a porous elastomeric support
Authors: Tomei Alice A. , Boschetti Federica , Gervaso Francesca , Swartz Melody A.
Published: December 2008

The field of mechanobiology has grown tremendously in the past few decades, and it is now well accepted that dynamic stresses and strains can impact cell and tissue organization, cell–cell and cell–matrix communication, matrix remodeling, cell proliferation and apoptosis, cell migration, and many other cell behaviors in both physiological and pathophysiological situations. Natural reconstituted matrices like collagen and fibrin are often used for three‐dimensional (3D) mechanobiology studies because they naturally form fibrous architectures and are rich in cell adhesion sites; however, they are physically weak and typically contain >99% water, making it difficult to apply dynamic stresses to them in a truly 3D context. Here we present a composite matrix and strain device that can support natural matrices within a macroporous elastic structure of polyurethane. We characterize this system both in terms of its mechanical behavior and its ability to support the growth and in vivo‐like behaviors of primary human lung fibroblasts cultured in collagen. The porous polyurethane was created with highly interconnected pores in the hundreds of µm size scale, so that while it did not affect cell behavior in the collagen gel within the pores, it could control the overall elastic behavior of the entire tissue culture system. In this way, a well‐defined dynamic strain could be imposed on the 3D collagen and cells within the collagen for several days (with elastic recoil driven by the polyurethane) without the typical matrix contraction by fibroblasts when cultured in 3D collagen gels. We show lung fibroblast‐to‐myofibroblast differentiation under 30%, 0.1 Hz dynamic strain to validate the model and demonstrate its usefulness for a wide range of tissue engineering applications.

Do the vastus medialis obliquus and vastus medialis longus really exist? A systematic review
Authors: Smith T.O. , Nichols R. , Harle D. , Donell S.T.
Published: December 2008

There remains controversy over whether the vastus medialis (VM) is a single anatomical structure or whether it is composed of two separate portions, the vastus medialis longus (VML) proximally and the vastus medialis obliquus (VMO) distally. The objective of this study was to assess the evidence base of investigations into muscle fiber orientation, presence of a fibrofascial plane, and the innervation of the VM in human cadaver specimens and subjects. In addition to a hand search of specialist journals, an electronic search of AMED, British Nursing Index, CINAHL, the Cochrane database, EMBASE, ovid Medline, Pubmed, and Zetoc were performed from their inception to September 2008. All human subject papers assessing VM fiber orientation, presence of a fibrofascial plane, and the innervation of the VM where reviewed. Twenty‐six papers, assessing 699 healthy knees, and 591 specimens with patellofemoral dysfunction were reviewed. The majority of nonpathological and pathological cases presented with a substantial alteration in fiber alignment seen between proximal and distal muscle portions of VM. Both cohorts presented with either one or two nerve branches to the VM. A fibrofascial plane dividing these two muscles was seen in a small proportion of both pathological and nonpathological knees. There was, however, insufficient good quality evidence to state whether the VM is composed of two separate components, the proximal VML and the distal VMO. Further study is recommended to evaluate the pathophysiological implications of such findings and to assess whether these correlate to functional electromyographic findings between the VML and VMO muscles.

Published: December 2008

The marginal mandibular branch (MMB) has a particular risk of injury during surgical procedures in the submandibular region, especially over the lower border of the mandible. The facial nerve has been described in many studies, but the MMB is dealt with generally as a branch of the facial nerve. The purpose of this study was to document the anatomy of the MMB by correlation with anatomical landmarks. Eighty‐five facial halves were examined for this study. The MMB was classified according to the number of branches and their connections with other branches, and by its relationship with landmarks of the gonion, facial artery, and retromandibular vein. The MMB showed one (28%), two (52%), three (18%), or four branches (2%) where it exited the parotid gland. Classification was based on connection with other branches. Type I (60%) did not communicate with other branches. Type II (40%) communicated with the buccal or cervical branches, or with another branch of the MMB. The cervicofacial division coursed along the lateral aspect of the retromandibular vein in 83% of specimens. The MMB passed the facial artery superficially (42%), passed it deeply in 4%, and ran on both sides of it in 54% of the facial halves. The distribution of the MMB formed a quadrilateral with angles +19.8 mm, −8.1 mm, +30.0 mm, and −15.3 mm measured from two sides on the inferior border of the mandible. These topographical data should help to decrease the incidence of injuries during surgery on the submandibular regions in Koreans. Clin. Anat. 22:207–214, 2009. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Investigations into Viomycin Biosynthesis by Using Heterologous Production in Streptomyces lividans
Authors: Barkei John J. , Kevany Brian M. , Felnagle Elizabeth A. , Thomas Michael G.
Published: December 2008

Viomycin and capreomycin are members of the tuberactinomycin family of antituberculosis drugs. As with many antibacterial drugs, resistance to the tuberactinomycins is problematic in treating tuberculosis; this makes the development of new derivatives of these antibiotics to combat this resistance of utmost importance. To take steps towards developing new derivatives of this family of antibiotics, we have focused our efforts on understanding how these antibiotics are biosynthesized by the producing bacteria so that metabolic engineering of these pathways can be used to generate desired derivatives. Here we present the heterologous production of viomycin in Streptomyces lividans 1326 and the use of targeted‐gene deletion as a mechanism for investigating viomycin biosynthesis as well as the generation of viomycin derivatives. Deletion of vioQ resulted in nonhydroxylated derivatives of viomycin, while strains lacking vioP failed to acylate the cyclic pentapeptide core of viomycin with β‐lysine. Surprisingly, strains lacking vioL produced derivatives that had the carbamoyl group of viomycin replaced by an acetyl group. Additionally, the acetylated viomycin derivatives were produced at very low levels. These two observations suggested that the carbamoyl group of the cyclic pentapeptide core of viomycin was introduced at an earlier step in the biosynthetic pathway than previously proposed. We present biochemical evidence that the carbamoyl group is added to the β‐amino group of L‐2,3‐diaminopropionate prior to incorporation of this amino acid by the nonribosomal peptide synthetases that form the cyclic pentapeptide cores of both viomycin and capreomycin.

Published: December 2008

Objectives:

To report the technical success and clinical outcomes of catheter‐based therapy (CBT) for acute ischemic stroke in patients ineligible for intravenous thrombolysis.

Background:

Acute ischemic stroke is common but undertreated. CBT for acute ischemic stroke is a therapeutic option in selected patients who are not candidates for intravenous thrombolysis.

Methods:

Consecutive stroke patients who were ineligible for intravenous thrombolysis and underwent CBT were identified by retrospective chart review. Demographic information, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), procedural characteristics, and clinical outcomes during hospitalization and at 90 days follow up were collected. Experienced interventional cardiologists with the consultative support of stroke neurologists were on call for acute strokes.

Results:

A total of 33 acute ischemic stroke patients underwent emergency cerebral angiography, with 26 patients undergoing CBT. Successful “culprit” artery recanalization was achieved in 23 (88%) of the 26 patients. In‐hospital adverse events occurred in 4 (15%) patients, with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) (12%) representing the most common adverse event. The baseline NIHSS for patients who underwent intervention was 16.5 ± 9.9 (median 16) and improved significantly to 9.9 ± 8.7 (median 9) (P < 0.001) at hospital discharge. A modified Rankin score of two or less (indicating mild disability) was achieved in half (n = 13) of the CBT treated patients. All cause mortality at 90 days was 8% (2/26).

Conclusions:

In selected patients, CBT provided by qualified interventional cardiologists supported by stroke neurologists, offers a safe and effective option for patients with acute stroke who are not eligible for intravenous thrombolysis. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Fracture of the GORE HELEX septal occluder: Associated factors and clinical outcomes
Authors: Fagan Thomas , Dreher Dennis , Cutright Warren , Jacobson Joth , Latson Larry
Published: December 2008

Objectives:

This study examines factors associated with, and clinical effects of, wire frame fractures (WFF) of the GORE HELEX™ Septal Occluder (HELEX).

Methods:

Investigator‐reported data from every HELEX implanted in the United States between 4/2000 and 4/2005 were reviewed. Clinical and procedural data from patients who experienced WFF were compared with data from patients who did not. The echocardiographic and fluoroscopic images for HELEX with WFF were reviewed for predictors of WFF and alterations in HELEX function.

Results:

With 90% of subjects followed for >12 months, 19/298 (6.4%) HELEX implanted were found to have WFF. Thirty WFFs were observed, with multiple WFFs occurring in 8/19 HELEX. Univariate predictors of WFF were large device size (P = 0.0003) and balloon defect size (P = 0.001); however, large device size (P = 0.0003) was the only significant predictor of WFF by multivariate analysis. WFF of the 30‐mm and 35‐mm HELEX accounted for 84% (16/19) of all WFFs. Review of HELEX images with WFF revealed all WFF occurred along the circumferential wire, except one (straight portion of locking loop). Seventeen of 29 (59%) circumferential WFFs were on the right disk. Residual defect status remained clinically insignificant (6/19) or became completely occluded (13/19) during follow‐up. There were no clinical sequelae due to WFF; however, secondary to right atrial disk mobility, the HELEX with locking loop WFF was percutaneously removed 6 weeks after implantation.

Conclusions:

WFF occurred in 6.4% of HELEX and were most common in large devices. With the exception of one device removed for theoretical risks, no clinical sequelae were related to WFF. WFF did not alter the function of the HELEX. © 2008 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Venting of Foaming Three‐Phase Systems
Authors: Poli M. , Imhof H. , Holst N. , Steinbach J.
Published: December 2008

Designing pressure relief devices for three‐phase systems consisting of solids, liquids and vapors requires an in‐depth knowledge of the fluid dynamics and of the thermodynamic effects in the reactor. The behavior of foaming three‐phase systems is, to date, still not well understood. In this research, these systems are systematically studied, taking the solid properties into account. Also, the applicability of two‐phase pressure relief models to three‐phase systems is investigated with the help of the simulation tool SAFIRE/Vent. The results obtained contribute significantly to the better design of pressure relief devices and to more accurate predictions of the three‐phase venting behavior and the solid discharge.
ICE: a new method for the multivariate curve resolution of hyperspectral images
Authors: Berman Mark , Phatak Aloke , Lagerstrom Ryan , Wood Bayden R.
Published: December 2008

The iterated constrained endmembers (ICE) algorithm is a new method of unmixing hyperspectral images that combines aspects of multivariate curve resolution (MCR) methods in chemometrics and unmixing algorithms in remote sensing. Like many MCR methods, ICE also estimates pure components, or endmembers, via alternating least squares; however, it is explicitly based on a convex geometry model and estimation is carried out in a subspace of reduced dimensionality defined by the minimum noise fraction (MNF) transform. In this paper, we describe the ICE algorithm and its properties. We also illustrate its use on a hyperspectral image of cervical tissue. The unmixing of hyperspectral images presents some unique challenges, and we also outline where further development is required. © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
