Anidulafungin is an effective antifungal medicine, which can inhibit activities of candida in vitro and in vivo. Echinocandin B (ECB) is the key precursor of Anidulafungin, thus the price and market prospect of Anidulafungin is directly due to the fermentation titer of ECB. In this study, Aspergillus nidulans was used for ECB fermentation, and the influence of adding microparticles on ECB fermentation was studied, such as talcum powder, Al2O3, and glass beads. The particle size and concentration were the key factors for mycelium morphology and ECB production, and ECB production could reach 1 262.9 mg/L and 1 344.1 mg/L by adding talcum powder of 20 g/L (d50 = 14.2 μm) and 7 glass beads (6 mm), an increase by 33.2% and 41.7%, respectively. The results indicated that the mycelium morphology of filamentous microorganisms and the product yield of fermentation could be improved by adding microparticles remarkably, and it provide an important method for the fermentative optimization of filamentous microorganisms.

There were significant differences in body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference, BMI, FINS, HOMA-IR, TC, TG, HDL-C, and LDL-C among the three groups ( F = 53.62, 280.42, 53.33, 303.44, 338.48, 755.71, 618.75, 165.81, 186.89, 251.42, all P < 0.001). Body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference, BMI, FINS, HOMA-IR, TC level, TG level, HDL-C level, and LDL-C level were lower in the control group than in the mild/moderate obesity group ( t = -7.28, -14.56, -4.00, -19.72, -6.49, -21.45, -12.36, 9.20, -14.12, all P < 0.05). Body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference, BMI, FINS, HOMA-IR, TC, TG, HDL-C and LDL-C were lower in the mild/moderate obesity group than in the severe obesity group ( t = -3.79, -10.98, -6.61, -5.19, -15.81, -22.02, -16.34, -8.30, 12.68, -10.03, all P < 0.05). Serum 25(OH)D [(60.52 ± 8.95) nmol/L vs. (49.88 ± 8.12) nmol /L, t = 7.31, P < 0.05] and SIRT4 [(1.98 ± 0.38) mmol/L vs. (1.06 ± 0.30) mmol/L, t = 15.89, P < 0.05] levels were significantly greater in the control group than in the mild/moderate obesity group. Serum 25(OH)D [(49.88 ± 8.12) nmol/L vs. (41.62 ± 7.50) nmol /L, t = 5.68, P < 0.05] and SIRT4 [(1.06 ± 0.30) mmol/L vs. (0.52 ± 0.15) mmol/L, t = 11.57, P < 0.05] levels were significantly greater in the mild/moderate obesity group than in the severe obesity group. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that body mass, waist circumference, hip circumference, FINS, HOMA-IR, TC, TG, and LDL were the positive influential factors of childhood obesity ( B = 0.170, 0.310, 0.403, 1.000, 3.464, 2.080, 2.656, 4.324); HDL, serum 25(OH)D and SIRT4 were the negative influential factors of childhood obesity ( B = -2.096, -0.156, -6.615). Pearson correlation analysis showed that serum 25(OH)D was significantly negatively correlated with FINS, HOMA-IR, TC, TG and LDL ( r = -0.20, -0.46, -0.30, -0.36, all P < 0.01), and significantly positively correlated with FPG and HDL ( r = 0.43, 0.77, both P < 0.01). Serum SIRT4 was negatively correlated with FINS, TC, TG, and LDL ( r = -0.48, -0.74, -0.61, -0.64, all P < 0.01), and positively correlated with FPG and HDL ( r = 0.21, 0.84, both P < 0.01). Conclusion:Serum 25(OH)D and SIRT4 levels decrease with the aggravation of obesity in children and are closely related to glycolipid metabolism. Therefore, early detection of obesity can reflect the degree of obesity and glycolipid metabolism in children.
