Excessive levels of reactive nitrogen species (RNS) produce nitrosative stress. Among RNS is peroxynitrite, a highly reactive free radical generated when nitric oxide reacts with superoxide anion. Peroxynitrite effects have been mainly studied in somatic cells, and in spermatozoa the majority of studies are focused in humans. The aim of this study is to investigate the in vitro peroxynitrite effect on boar spermatozoa functions and the molecular mechanisms involved. Spermatozoa were exposed to the donor 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1) in non-capacitating or capacitating medium, motility was evaluated by CASA, functional parameters by flow cytometry and sperm protein phosphorylation by Western blotting. SIN-1 treatment, that significantly increases peroxynitrite levels in boar spermatozoa, potentiates the capacitating-stimulated phosphorylation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase 1 (PKA) substrates and GSK-3α. SIN-1 induced peroxynitrite does not decrease sperm viability, but significantly reduces sperm motility, progressive motility, velocities and motility coefficients. Concomitantly, peroxynitrite does not affect mitochondrial membrane potential, plasma membrane fluidity, or A23187-induced acrosome reaction. However, peroxynitrite significantly increases sperm lipid peroxidation in both media. In conclusion, peroxynitrite compromises boar sperm motility without affecting mitochondrial activity. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/nutlin-3a.html Although peroxynitrite potentiates the phosphorylation of pathways leading to sperm motility, it also causes oxidative stress that might explain, at least partially, the motility impairment.Black nightshade (Solanum nigrum) belongs to the Solanaceae family and is used as a medicinal herb with health benefits. It has been reported that the black nightshade plant contains various phytochemicals that are associated with antitumor activities. Here we employed a genetic approach to study the effects of overexpression of Arabidopsis thaliana production of anthocyanin pigment 1 (AtPAP1) in black nightshade. Ectopic expression of AtPAP1 resulted in enhanced accumulation of anthocyanin pigments in vegetative and reproductive tissues of the transgenic plants. Analysis of anthocyanin revealed that delphinidin 3-O-rutinoside-5-O-glucoside, delphinidin 3,5-O-diglucoside, delphinidin 3-O-rutinoside, petunidin 3-O-rutinoside (cis-p-coumaroyl)-5-O-glucoside, petunidin 3-(feruloyl)-rutinoside-5-glucoside, and malvidin 3-(feruloyl)-rutinoside-5-glucoside are highly induced in the leaves of AtPAP1 overexpression lines. Furthermore, ectopic expression of AtPAP1 evoked expression of early and late biosynthetic genes of the general phenylpropanoid and flavonoid pathways that include phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL), cinnamate-4-hydroxylase (C4H), 4-coumarate CoA ligase (4CL), chalcone isomerase (CHI), and quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT), which suggests these genes might be transcriptional targets of AtPAP1 in black nightshade. Concomitantly, the total content of anthocyanin in the transgenic black nightshade plants was higher compared to the control plants, which supports phenotypic changes in color. Our data demonstrate that a major anthocyanin biosynthetic regulator, AtPAP1, can induce accumulation of anthocyanins in the heterologous system of black nightshade through the conserved flavonoid biosynthesis pathway in plants.The use of lidocaine in spinal anesthesia may increase the risk of transient neurological symptoms (TNS) according to previous meta-analyses. However, the previous meta-analyses lacked data on some other local anesthetics and thus, more evaluations are still needed to compare the effect of lidocaine on the development of TNS. The objective of this study was to compare the risk of TNS according to lidocaine versus other local anesthetics in patients undergoing spinal anesthesia. A total of 39 randomized controlled trials with 4733 patients were analyzed. The incidence of TNS was 10.8% in the lidocaine group and was 2.2% in the control groups (risk ratio (RR) 4.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.13 to 5.43, p less then 0.001). In subgroup analysis, lidocaine increased the incidence of TNS compared with other local anesthetics except mepivacaine, ropivacaine or sameridine. The risk of TNS was higher in the hyperbaric (p less then 0.001) or isobaric lidocaine (p less then 0.001) group compared with the control group, but there were no differences found between the two groups when hypobaric lidocaine was administered (p = 1.00). This study confirmed that lidocaine for spinal anesthesia still causes TNS more frequently than most other local anesthetics, especially when hyperbaric or isobaric lidocaine was used.Accurate predictions of species distribution under current and future climate conditions require modeling efforts based on clear mechanistic relationships between climate variables and plant physiological functions. Vulnerability of leaves to xylem embolism is a key mechanistic trait that might be included in these modeling efforts. Here, we propose a simple set-up to measure leaf vulnerability to embolism on the basis of the optical method using a smartphone, a light source, and a notebook. Our data show that this proposed set-up can adequately quantify the vulnerability to xylem embolism of leaf major veins in Populus nigra and Ostrya carpinifolia, producing values consistent with those obtained in temperate tree species with other methods, allowing virtually any laboratory to quantify species-specific drought tolerance on the basis of a sound mechanistic trait.Recent advances in next generation sequencing have created opportunities to directly identify genetic loci and candidate genes for abiotic stress responses in plants. With the objective of identifying candidate genes within the previously identified QTL-hotspots, the whole genomes of two divergent cultivars for salt responses, namely At 354 and Bg 352, were re-sequenced using Illumina Hiseq 2500 100PE platform and mapped to Nipponbare and R498 genomes. The sequencing results revealed approximately 2.4 million SNPs and 0.2 million InDels with reference to Nipponbare while 1.3 million and 0.07 million with reference to R498 in two parents. In total, 32,914 genes were reported across all rice chromosomes of this study. Gene mining within QTL hotspots revealed 1236 genes, out of which 106 genes were related to abiotic stress. In addition, 27 abiotic stress-related genes were identified in non-QTL regions. Altogether, 32 genes were identified as potential genes containing polymorphic non-synonymous SNPs or InDels between two parents.
