Variation in microbial biomass and community structure in sediments of eutrophic bays as determined by phospholipid ester-linked Fatty acids.
The distribution of phospholipid ester-linked fatty acids (PLFA) in sediments of eutrophic bays (Hiroshima Bay and Aki Nada) was studied to quantify the microbial biomass, community structure, and nutritional status. A total of 63 fatty acids in the range of C(10) to C(24) were determined. They consist of saturated fatty acids, branched fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, and polyunsatura...
متن کاملAccumulation of Radioactive Cesium Released from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Terrestrial Cyanobacteria Nostoc commune
The Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident released large amounts of radioactive substances into the environment and contaminated the soil of Tohoku and Kanto districts in Japan. Removal of radioactive material from the environment is an urgent problem, and soil purification using plants is being considered. In this study, we investigated the ability of 12 seed plant species and a cyano...
متن کاملDifferent locations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein and phospholipid transfer protein activities in plasma.
Activities of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) and phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) were measured in plasma of four vertebrate species: man, rabbit, pig, and rat. The activities were measured in the absence and presence of antibodies raised against purified human CETP. PLTP activities were present in all four species with highest values in pig (11.7 +/- 1.2 U/ml) and human plasma (...
متن کاملSeasonal Variation of Overall and Cardiovascular Mortality: A Study in 19 Countries from Different Geographic Locations
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) mortality has been shown to follow a seasonal pattern. Several studies suggested several possible determinants of this pattern, including misclassification of causes of deaths. We aimed at assessing seasonality in overall, CVD, cancer and non-CVD/non-cancer mortality using data from 19 countries from different latitudes. METHODS AND FINDINGS Monthly mo...
متن کاملLiver and intestinal fatty acid-binding proteins obtain fatty acids from phospholipid membranes by different mechanisms.
Intestinal enterocytes contain high concentrations of two cytosolic fatty acid-binding proteins (FABP), liver FABP (L-FABP) and intestinal FABP (I-FABP), which are hypothesized to play a role in cellular fatty acid trafficking. The mechanism(s) by which fatty acids move from membranes to each of these proteins is not known. Here we demonstrate that fluorescent anthroyloxy fatty acid analogues (...
