Deformities in human soft tissue caused by trauma or burn present a difficult problem in plastic surgery. In this study, we encapsulated troglitazone and angiotensin 1-7 mimetic AVE0991 in gelation microspheres with the goal of inducing epithelial transformation for potential applications in tissue reconstruction. After troglitazone or AVE0991 were encapsulated to gelation microspheres, their release kinetics and bioactivity were examined. Surface morphology and diameter of the gelation microspheres were evaluated using light microscopy. #link# The release of the drugs was assessed in the presence of human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Treatment with troglitazone microspheres increased cell viability and activated the β-catenin in ADSCs. Moreover, the AVE0991 microspheres also increased cell viability and C-myc expression of ADSCs. These results showed that troglitazone and AVE0991 microspheres promoted the activity of ADSCs. Furthermore, ADSCs were co-treated with troglitazone and AVE0991 microspheres. Western blot and immunofluorescent staining showed that co-treatment with troglitazone and AVE0991 microspheres elevated the expression of epithelialization associated protein CK14 in ADSCs. In conclusion, our findings indicate that microspheres with troglitazone and AVE0991 can significantly improve the viability and epithelialization of ADSCs, which provides a new approach for the construction of tissue-engineered skin. In order to interpret the molecular mechanisms that modulating the organism variations and selection signatures to drive adaptive evolutionary changes are indispensable goals in the new evolutionary ecological genetics. Here, we identified the gene locus associated to royal jelly production through whole-genome sequencing of the DNA from eight populations of honeybees. The analysis of the samples was composed of 120 individuals and each pointed extremely opposite trait values for a given phenotype. We identified functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) candidate that might be essential in regulating the phenotypic traits of honeybee populations. Moreover, check details were investigated using pooling sequencing of eight distinct honeybee populations, and the results provided the evidence of signatures of recent selection among populations under different selection objectives. Furthermore, gene ontology (GO) annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analyses indicated that selected genes were potentially involved in several biological processes and molecular functioning, which could directly or indirectly influence the production of royal jelly. Our findings can be used to understand the genomic signatures, as well as implicate a profound glance on genomic regions that control the production trait of royal jelly in honey bees. This paper describes the continuation of studies that demonstrated the suitability of CP-Tes solution as a medium for the introduction and removal of dimethyl sulfoxide in rabbit common carotid arteries and established the kinetics of cryoprotectant permeation in that tissue. In this paper we report the tolerance of rabbit common carotid artery to dimethyl sulfoxide, in concentrations up to 30% (w/w), using a technique of exposure that was designed to control osmotic stress. The maximum concentration achieved without damage was 15% (w/w). Vessels were then equilibrated with 15% dimethyl sulfoxide and cooled to -80°C at 0.22, 0.69, 2.15, or 9.63°C/min they were then transferred to the gas phase of a liquid nitrogen refrigerator temperature below -160°C) for storage. Thawing was carried out in a 37°C water bath. The optimum rate of cooling for these conditions was found to be 0.69°C/min. The maximal recovery of contractile force in response to 10-6 M norepinephrine was 30-40%; relaxation to acetylcholine (an endothelium-mediated function) was 80% of control, and an estimated 71% of endothelial cells survived with minimal ultrastructural change. To lend insight into the potential role of the gasotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H2S) in facilitating anoxia survival of anoxia-tolerant vertebrates, we quantified the gene expression of the primary H2S-synthesizing enzymes, 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST), cystathionine γ-lyase (CSE) and cystathionine β-synthase (CBS), in ventricle and brain of normoxic, anoxic and reoxygenated 21 °C- and 5 °C-acclimated freshwater turtles (Trachemys scripta) and 10 °C-acclimated crucian carp (Carassius carassius). Semi-quantitative Western blotting analysis was also conducted to assess 3MST and CBS protein abundance in ventricle and brain of 5 °C turtles and 10 °C crucian carp subjected to normoxia, anoxia and reoxygenation. We hypothesized that if H2S was advantageous for anoxia survival, expression levels would remain unchanged or be upregulated with anoxia and/or reoxygenation. Indeed, for both species, gene and protein expression were largely maintained with anoxia exposure (24 h, 21 °C; 5 d, 10 °C; 14 d, 5 °C). With reoxygenation, 3MST expression was increased in turtle and crucian carp brain at the protein and gene level, respectively. Additionally, the effect of cold acclimation on gene expression was assessed in several tissues of the turtle. Expression levels were maintained in most tissues, but decreased in others. The maintenance of gene and protein expression of the H2S-producing enzymes with anoxia exposure and the up-regulation of 3MST with reoxygenation suggests that H2S may facilitate anoxic survival of the two champions of vertebrate anoxia survival. The differential effects of cold acclimation on H2S enzyme expression may influence blood flow to different tissues during winter anoxia. Dental unit water systems (DUWS) provide an excellent environment for biofilm formation and can form a potential health risk for patients and staff. To control this biofilm formation, better understanding of the DUWS biofilm ecology is needed. Described is a newly developed in-vitro DUWS model which is easy to build, can be inoculated with different water sources and allows for sampling of both the effluent and biofilm. Unlike most models, a dynamic flow pattern, typical for a dental unit is used to provide water as a nutrient source. Microbial growth and composition were analyzed using heterotrophic plate counts (HPC) and 16S rDNA sequencing. Growth was reproducible in all models, reaching quasi-steady state at day 16 in the effluent (105-106 CFU∙mL-1) and day 23 in the biofilm (108 and 107 CFU∙cm-2) for non-potable and potable water, respectively. Principal component analysis of the microbial composition showed that biofilms originating from either non-potable or potable water were significantly different after 30 days of growth (n = 8, PERMANOVA, F = 35.
