However, the question of whether Cimigenoside had effects on lung cancer remains elusive. This study was aimed at investigating the effects of Cimigenoside\u0000 on A549 lung cancer cells. The A549 cells were cultured in vitro, and an MTT assay was carried out to explore the cell proliferative abilities after a treatment with Cimigenoside. The wound healing assays and Transwell invasion assays were carried out to explore the effects of Cimigenoside\u0000 on cell migration and invasion in the A549 cells. A cell apoptosis assay using flow cytometry was used to evaluate the effects on cell apoptosis in the A549 cells. The related protein expression levels were measured using a Western blot assay. It was hypothesised that Cimigenoside could restrain\u0000 tumour cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while inducing cell apoptosis with apoptosis-related protein change levels in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The Western blot assay revealed that the Cimigenoside treated A549 cells had a reduced expression of p65, while having an increased\u0000 expression of IκBα at the protein level. Taken together, this study demonstrated that Cimigenoside has the potential to repress cell proliferation, migration and invasion, while inducing apoptosis in A549 lung cancer cells through the NF-κB pathway. These results reveal that\u0000 Cimigenoside may have a therapeutic potential for lung cancer treatment.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41319487","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distribution of adult dragonflies and damselflies was studied in relation to eight environmental\u0000 variables, in an upland storage reservoir and its feeder rivers located in South-East Poland (East-Central Europe). A total of 25 species were recorded, including 22 in the reservoir. Submerged and floating plants, width of the shallow littoral zone and the water movement/current were found\u0000 to be the key drivers of the species distribution (pCCA, NMDS). Five species (Ischnura elegans, Sympetrum sanguineum, Platycnemis pennipes, Calopteryx splendens and Erythromma viridulum) were responsible for over 70% of the dissimilarities between the riverine\u0000 and reservoir sites (SIMPER). In addition, Ischnura elegans, Orthetrum albistylum and Calopteryx virgo were distinguished as the indicator species (IndVal analysis) for the upland river-reservoir hydrological system. Our results highlight some design features of reservoirs that\u0000 may help to maintain the diversity of odonates, as well as many other groups of aquatic organisms, as the former are well-known indicators of general biodiversity.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69767418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The ticks were collected in mid-spring (April and May) using the flagging technique. They were collected\u0000 in five places: on the shoreline of Drawa River and Konotop Lake, as well as in forest and meadow areas near Karwice, Konotop and Oleszno Villages. During the work, only one species of ticks was caught – Ixodes ricinus. All the collected specimens were assessed in terms of their\u0000 species, sex and developmental stage by zoological specialists. The largest number of specimens was caught in Karwice (35%, n = 666). The highest number of ticks in each test site were nymphs (57%, n = 1106), except at Konotop. The reaction of RT-PCR was tested in 111 pools of ticks. As a\u0000 result of the PCR reactions (VIASURE Tick-Borne Diseases Real-Time PCR Detection Kit), Rickettsia spp. (n = 70) and Borrelia burgdorferi s. l. (n = 35) were determined to be the most frequently identified pathogens in the tick samples. Other pathogens such as Anaplasma phagocytophilum\u0000 and Ehrlichia chaffeensis were detected in a smaller number of samples. The results in this paper confirm the epidemiological data collected and analysed prior to now.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45385718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We randomly collected 205 genetically unrelated animals from five Chinese goat breeds, including the\u0000 Saanen dairy goat (SN, n = 67), Tibetan goat (TG, n = 35), Chuannan black goat (CN, n = 30), Meigu goat (MG, n = 37) and the Jianzhou big-ear goat (JZ, n = 36). A blood sample was collected from each individual and used for the detection of brucellosis, TLR5 polymorphism identification\u0000 and the detection of promoter methylation. In total, twenty-four SNPs were identified in the five investigated breeds. The allele and genotype frequency of the four loci (g.435C>T, g.690G>T, g.978A>G and g.1832A>G) were correlated with a seroprevalence of brucellosis in the SN\u0000 goats. An r2 linkage disequilibrium (LD) was detected in SN, CN, TG and MG, but not in the JZ goats. Ten methylation sites were detected on the first CpG island with DNA methylation levels ranging from 0.2% to 5.2%, and twenty-two methylation sites were found on the second methylation\u0000 island with a 2.3% to 12.1% methylation. The methylation levels of the two CpG islands in the healthy SN were significantly higher than those recorded in the brucella -infected SN (p <0.05). Our findings demonstrated that genetic variations and the promoter methylation of TLR5\u0000 were associated with a brucellosis risk in SN goats. These results will be helpful for further studies of disease resistance in ruminants.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43083196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the other hand, fish ponds provide a range of ecological functions including biocenotic, physiocenotic, hydrological and microclimatic functions as well\u0000 as landscape shaping. The aim of this study was to determine the taxonomic composition of the bottom invertebrate fauna in selected watercourses on chosen carp fish farms and to assess the influence of fish farming on the taxonomic composition of the zoobenthos of the watercourses associated\u0000 with such ponds. The research was conducted in four channels on two semi-intensive aquaculture fish farms located in Zaborze and Kraków (Poland). Sampling of the benthic fauna was carried out once a month between May and September 2018. The results showed that the mean monthly number\u0000 of zoobenthos families in the inflow canal in Zaborze was higher than those in the outflow canal. Moreover, a decrease of the BMWP-PL index in the aforementioned farm may indicate a deterioration of the water quality resulting from its flow through the ponds. It can therefore be concluded\u0000 that semi-intensive carp farming may affect the diversity of benthic invertebrate fauna in the watercourses connected to these ponds.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47638871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The strong antioxidant and cytoprotective effects of resveratrol have previously been demonstrated, but its effect in the context of the male reproduction\u0000 remains unconvincing. To observe the biological activity of resveratrol in protecting the male reproductive function, hydrogen peroxide-induced oxidative stress in Leydig cells was used as a cell model. The aim of the present study was to examine if resveratrol could induce changes in the\u0000 gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC), nitric oxide production, total oxidant status (TOS) and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in TM3 Leydig cells subjected to H2O2. The Leydig cells were exposed to a resveratrol treatment (5, 10, 20, 50 and 100 μM) in the\u0000 presence or absence of H2O2 (300/600 μM) during a 24 h in vitro culture. The cell lysates to assess TOS and TAC, NO production were quantified in a culture medium using the Griess method, and the Scrape Loading/Dye Transfer (SL/DT) technique was used for the\u0000 determination of GJIC in the exposed TM3 Leydig cells. Treatment with higher doses of resveratrol alone led to a significantly increased TOS (p<0.05 with 100 μM) and NO production (p<0.05 with 50 μM and 100 μM), but significantly reduced TAC (p<0.01 with 100 μM) and GJIC\u0000 (p<0.05 with 100 μM), while the SL/DT evaluation in the cells exposed to resveratrol at concentrations 5 μM (p<0.05) and 10 μM (p<0.01) revealed a significant stimulation of GJIC. The most potent cytoprotective or stimulatory effect of resveratrol in the cells co-exposed\u0000 to oxidative stress (300 μM H2O2) was observed at a concentration of 10 μM in the case of GJIC, which was manifested by a significant increase in the values (p<0.05) compared to the control group treated with H2O2 alone.","PeriodicalId":50438,"journal":{"name":"Folia Biologica-Krakow","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47925160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
