Objective To investigate the effects of N - acetylcysteine (NAC) on apoptosis and the expressions of Fas/FasL mRNA in lung tissue of rats with paraquat - induced acute lung injury.Methods Forty five male SD rats were randomly (random number) divided into normal control group,paraquat (PQ) group,and NAC treatment group.The rat model of acute lung injury was made with 2％ PQ induction in dose of 25 mg/kg injected,and NAC was injected into the PQ poisoning rats (200 mg/kg) 30 minutes after PQ administration in NAC treatment group.In the control group,equal amount of saline instead was injected into the rats.Apoptosis was detected by using TUNEL method and the expressions of Fas/FasL mRNA were evaluated by using reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT- PCR),and the levels of Fas/FasL protein were detected by using western blot analysis.Results Compared with control group,cell apoptosis and expressions Fas/FasL mRNA in PQ group were significantly different ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with PQ group,cell apoptosis and expressions Fas/FasL mRNA in NAC group were significantly decreased,were significant lower (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions NAC inhibited apoptosis in lung tissue of rats with paraquat induction by regulating the activation of Fas/FasL systems.

A method for measuring 13C isotopic abundance of intracellular metabolites of Saccharopolysporaerythraea by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC)-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry was established.First, the chromatographic conditions of UPLC were optimized, and then the MS conditions such as unique tube lens voltage, collision energy, and ion pair were optimized.On the bases of length of the parent and daughter ions carbon chains and whether the daughter ions contain 13C atoms, the one-to-one method, one-to-many method and SIM method were established for measuring 13C isotopic abundance.Then these methods were used to measure naturally labeled intracellular metabolite standards and 13C labeled samples, and according to the gap between the experimental value and the theoretical value, the best method was established for each metabolite of different characteristics.The results showed that one-to-one method was most effective for measuring the metabolites of daughter ions not containing 13C atoms represented by sugar phosphates, one-to-many method was the best for measuring the metabolites of both parent and daughter ions containing 13C short carbon chains represented by carboxylic acids, SIM method could play a role in measuring the metabolites of both parent and daughter ions containing 13C long carbon chains represented by coenzyme A.This method had a good measurement precision and could be applied to the measurement of Saccharopolysporaerythraea intracellular metabolites, which contributed to the consequent study of metabolic mechanism and the efficient expression of erythromycin.

Objective To observe the expression of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)in acute lung injury caused by paraquat(PQ)in rats,and investigate the mechanism of the rhubarb in respect of pmteetive effects.Method PQ intragastrically poisoning at the dose of 50 mg/kg made a model of the acute lung injury in Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats.Totally 144 adult healthy SD rats(72 female,72male)were randomly divided into control group (group A,n=24),poisoned group(group B,n=48),rhubarb treated group(group C,n=48)and the shaln poisoning group(group D,n=24).Rats of group B and group C were poisoned intmgastrically with PQ(50 mg/kg).and rats of group C and group D were intervened intragastrieally with 300 mg/(kg·d)of rhubarb in 15 min-utes.The white blood cells and total cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were counted by using a blood cell counting plate and the protein content of BALF was measured by using the way of Lowry in order to calculate the neutmphiks pereentage and lung permeability index.A small portion of left lung was stained with HE to observe the pathological changes and the expression oftumor necrosis factor-α in the rest of the left lung was observed with immunohistochemistry.The data were handled by the analysis of variance and NK method using SPSS 14.0.Re-suits Compared with group A,the lungs of rats mainly showed congestion,edema and leukocytes infiltration in group B,and fibrosis was found onlyt in a few rats.And the rate neutrophils percentage,protein content and lung permeability index in BALF increased(P＜0.01).The expression of TNF-α were obviously inereased at 12 hours after PQ poisoning,and immtmohistochemistry score (IHS)was higher,and peaked at 24 hours later(P＜0.05),then remained on a high level for a while and sluggishly declined.Compared with group B,the changes of above mentioned were alleviated obviously,and the expression of TNF-α delayed with the less magnitude of increasing an an obvious tendency of less expression.Compared with group B,delayed,lower increasing extent,obviously re-ducing tendency in group C with statistical difference in IHS(P＜0.05).Conclusions Rhubarb ameliorates a-cute lung injury caused by PQ poisoning in rats by means of inhibiting the expression of TNF-α in turn to alleviate inflammatory reaction.

A rapid and accurate determination method of lipids in microalgae plays a significant role in an efficient breeding process for high-lipid production of microalgae. Using low field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR), we developed a direct quantitative method for cellular lipids in Chlorella protothecoides cells. The LF-NMR signal had a linear relationship with the lipid content in the microalgae cells for both dry cell samples and algal broth samples (R2 > 0.99). These results indicated that we could use this method for accurate determination of microalgal lipids. Although LF-NMR is a rapid and easy lipid determination method in comparison to conventional methods, low efficiency would limit its application in high throughput screening. Therefore, we developed a novel combined high throughput screening method for high-lipid content mutants of C. protothecoides. Namely, we initially applied Nile red staining method for semi-quantification of lipid in the pre-screening process, and following with LF-NMR method for accurate lipid determination in re-screening process. Finally, we adopted this novel screening method in the breeding process of high-lipid content heterotrophic cells of C. protothecoides. From 3 098 mutated strains 108 high-lipid content strains were selected through pre-screening process, and then 9 mutants with high-lipid production were obtained in the re-screening process. In a consequence, with heterotrophical cultivation of 168 h, the lipid concentration could reach 5 g/L, and the highest lipid content exceeded 20% (W/W), which was almost two-fold to that of the wild strain. All these results demonstrated that the novel breeding process was reliable and feasible for improving the screening efficiency.
