RESUMO

Transforming biological waste into high-value-added materials is currently attracting extensive research interest in the medical and industrial treatment fields. The design and use of new antibacterial systems are urgently needed. In this study, we used discarded oyster shell powder (OSP) to prepare calcium oxide (CaO). CaO was mixed with silver (Ag), zinc (Zn), and copper (Cu) ions as a controlled release and antibacterial system to test the antibacterial activity. The inhibition zones of various modified metals were between 22 and 29 mm for Escherichia coli (E. coli) and between 21 and 24 mm for Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). In addition, linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) combined with CaO and metal ion forms can be an excellent alternative to a hybrid composite. The strength modulus at 1% LLDPE to LLDPE/CaO Ag increased from 297 to 320 MPa. In addition, the antimicrobial activity of LLDPE/CaO/metal ions against E. coli had an antibacterial effect of about 99.9%. Therefore, this hybrid composite material has good potential as an antibacterial therapy and biomaterial suitable for many applications.

RESUMO

Human p29 is a putative component of spliceosomes, but its role in pre-mRNA is elusive. By siRNA knockdown and stable overexpression, we demonstrated that human p29 is involved in DNA damage response and Fanconi anemia pathway in cultured cells. In this study, we generated p29 knockout mice (mp29(GT/GT)) using the mp29 gene trap embryonic stem cells to study the role of mp29 in DNA damage response in vivo. Interruption of mp29 at both alleles resulted in embryonic lethality. Embryonic abnormality occurred as early as E6.5 in mp29(GT/GT) mice accompanied with decreased mRNA levels of α-tubulin and Chk1. The reduction of α-tubulin and Chk1 mRNAs is likely due to an impaired post-transcriptional event. An aberrant G2/M checkpoint was found in mp29 gene trap embryos when exposed to aphidicolin and UV light. This embryonic lethality was rescued by crossing with mp29 transgenic mice. Additionally, the knockdown of zfp29 in zebrafish resulted in embryonic death at 72 hours of development postfertilization (hpf). A lower level of acetylated α-tubulin was also observed in zfp29 morphants. Together, these results illustrate an indispensable role of mp29 in DNA checkpoint response during embryonic development.
