Electrospun PEI scaffolds have shown advantageous properties, such as enhanced endothelial cell adherence, proliferation and low platelet adhesion in in vitro experiments. In this study, the in vivo behaviour of electrospun PEI scaffolds and PEI films was examined in a murine subcutaneous implantation model. Electrospun PEI scaffolds and films were surgically implanted subcutaneously in the dorsae of mice. The surrounding subcutaneous tissue response was examined via histopathological examination at 7 and 28days after implantation. No serious adverse events were observed for both types of PEI implants. The presence of macrophages or foreign body giant cells in the vicinity of the implants and the formation of a fibrous capsule indicated a normal foreign body reaction towards PEI films and scaffolds. Capsule thickness and inflammatory infiltration cells significantly decreased for PEI scaffolds during days 7-28 while remaining unchanged for PEI films. The infiltration of cells into the implant was observed for PEI scaffolds 7days after implantation and remained stable until 28days of implantation. Additionally some, but not all, PEI scaffold implants induced the formation of functional blood vessels in the vicinity of the implants. Conclusively, this study demonstrates the in vivo biocompatibility of PEI implants, with favourable properties of electrospun PEI scaffolds regarding tissue integration and wound healing.}, language = {en} } @article{HahnMeyerSchroeteretal.2017, author = {Hahn, Marc Benjamin and Meyer, Susann and Schr{\"o}ter, Maria-Astrid and Seitz, Harald and Kunte, Hans-J{\"o}rg and Solomun, Tihomir and Sturm, Heinz}, title = {Direct electron irradiation of DNA in a fully aqueous environment}, series = {Physical chemistry, chemical physics : PCCP ; a journal of European chemical societies}, volume = {19}, journal = {Physical chemistry, chemical physics : PCCP ; a journal of European chemical societies}, number = {3}, publisher = {RSC Publ.}, address = {Cambridge}, issn = {1463-9076}, doi = {10.1039/c6cp07707b}, pages = {1798 -- 1805}, year = {2017}, abstract = {We report on a study in which plasmid DNA in water was irradiated with 30 keV electrons generated by a scanning electron microscope and passed through a 100 nm thick Si3N4 membrane.

DPP-4 exists in two forms: a plasma membranebound form and a soluble form, and can exert many biological actions mainly through its peptidase activity and interaction with extracellular matrix components. The kidneys have the highest DPP-4 expression level in mammalians. DPP-4 expression and urinary activity are up-regulated in diabetic nephropathy, highlighting its role as a potential target to manage diabetic nephropathy. Preclinical animal studies and some clinical data suggest that DPP-4 inhibitors decrease the progression of diabetic nephropathy in a blood pressure-and glucose-independent manner. Many studies reported that these reno-protective effects could be due to increased half-life of DPP-4 substrates such as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) and stromal derived factor-1 alpha (SDF-1a).

Die Basis f{\"u}r solche {\"O}kosysteme bilden intakte {\"o}kologische Wechselwirkungen zwischen einer Vielzahl von Arten. Durch den beispiellosen Verlust der Biodiversit{\"a}t, welcher durch die in der zweiten H{\"a}lfte des 20. Jahrhunderts zunehmende Intensivierung der Agrarwirtschaft und die Zerst{\"o}rung und Fragmentierung von Habitaten hervorgerufen wurde, k{\"o}nnen {\"o}kologische Wechselwirkungen und damit die Funktionsf{\"a}higkeit von Agrar{\"o}kosystemen stark eingeschr{\"a}nkt werden. Um den R{\"u}ckgang der Biodiversit{\"a}t in Agrar{\"o}kosystemen abschw{\"a}chen zu k{\"o}nnen, m{\"u}ssen wir die {\"o}kologischen Wechselwirkungen in Agrar{\"o}kosystemen besser verstehen. Hierbei spielen Flederm{\"a}use eine besondere Rolle, weil sie verschiedenste {\"o}kologische Nischen besetzen und eine Reihe von {\"O}kosystemleistungen erf{\"u}llen so wie z.B. die Kontrolle von Sch{\"a}dlingspopulationen in Agrarlandschaften. {\"U}berdies tr{\"a}gt die Ordnung der Flederm{\"a}use (Chiroptera) betr{\"a}chtlich zur globalen Diversit{\"a}t der S{\"a}ugetiere bei. Obwohl viele Fledermauspopulationen durch die Intensivierung der Agrarwirtschaft dezimiert wurden, ist noch relativ wenig dar{\"u}ber bekannt wie unterschiedliche Fledermausarten die offene Agrarlandschaft nutzen. Dieses Wissen ist jedoch essenziell f{\"u}r den Schutz von Fledermausarten in intensiv bewirtschafteten Agrarlandschaften und dringend notwendig besonders vor dem Hintergrund der vorhergesagten erweiterten Ausweitung der intensiven Agrarwirtschaft. Zus{\"a}tzlich werden Flederm{\"a}use durch den zuletzt massiven Ausbau von Windkraftanlagen, welche f{\"u}r viele Vogel- und Fledermausarten ein erh{\"o}htes T{\"o}tungsrisiko darstellen, bedroht. Das Ziel dieser Dissertation war es deshalb, die Einfl{\"u}sse ausgew{\"a}hlter raum-zeitlicher Faktoren auf die artspezifische Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t {\"u}ber intensiv genutzten Agrarfl{\"a}chen in einer von Agrarwirtschaft dominierten Landschaft zu untersuchen. Dazu habe ich die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t mittels passiver akustischer Echoortungsaufnahme in den Jahren 2012 bis 2014 auf insgesamt 113 Untersuchungsfl{\"a}chen in offenen Ackerfl{\"a}chen im Nordosten Brandenburgs erfasst. Die Echoortungsrufe in etwa 27.779 Aufnahmen habe ich manuell bis auf die Art bestimmt und die berechneten artspezifischen Aktivit{\"a}tsparameter mit Hilfe von komplexen statistischen Verfahren untersucht. Im ersten Kapitel dieser Arbeit, habe ich die berechneten Aktivit{\"a}tsparameter von {\"o}kologisch unterschiedlichen Fledermausgruppen auf saisonale Muster hin untersucht. Dabei war ich besonders an Unterschieden zu den bekannten saisonalen Aktivit{\"a}tsmustern in naturnahen Habitaten interessiert. Im zweiten Kapitel dieser Arbeit, habe ich den Einfluss von linearen Geh{\"o}lzstrukturen am Feldrand und von kleinen Wasserfl{\"a}chen (S{\"o}llen) innerhalb von Ackerfl{\"a}chen auf die Flug- und Jagdaktivit{\"a}t verschiedener Fledermausarten {\"u}ber diesen Fl{\"a}chen untersucht. Zus{\"a}tzlich war ich daran interessiert, ob sich etwaige Effekte dieser Landschaftselemente auf die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t im Laufe des Jahres ver{\"a}ndern. Im dritten Kapitel dieser Arbeit war es mein Ziel den Zusammenhang zwischen unterschiedlichen r{\"a}umlichen und zeitlichen Einfl{\"u}ssen auf die artspezifische Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t {\"u}ber offenen Agrarfl{\"a}chen zu untersuchen. Dabei habe ich meine Untersuchungen auf Faktoren fokussiert, die daf{\"u}r bekannt sind Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t zu beeinflussen, wie z.B. Faktoren auf kleinr{\"a}umiger Skala, die mit der Beuteverf{\"u}gbarkeit zusammenh{\"a}ngen, und verschiedene Landschaftscharakteristika auf großr{\"a}umiger Skala. Auf der zeitlichen Skala, habe ich mich auf den Einfluss der Saison konzentriert. Zusammenfassend heben die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit die Wichtigkeit naturnaher Landschaftselemente f{\"u}r die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t {\"u}ber Agrarfl{\"a}chen hervor. Allerdings war nicht nur die Landschaftsstruktur f{\"u}r die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t {\"u}ber Ackerfl{\"a}chen ausschlaggebend, sondern auch der Einfluss von interaktiven Effekten zwischen z.B. Landschaftscharakteristika und der lokalen Beuteverf{\"u}gbarkeit. Ein weiteres Kernergebnis ist die saisonale Variabilit{\"a}t des Einflusses der Landschaftsstruktur auf die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t. Hierbei hatten bestimmte Landschaftselemente vor allem im Sommer einen großen Einfluss auf die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t. Das Potenzial der {\"O}kosystemleistung durch spezifische Fledermausarten, welches wiederholt in den unterschiedlichen Kapiteln hervorgehoben wurde, ist ein weiteres Kernergebnis. Da die Fledermausaktivit{\"a}t jedoch stark von der Landschaftsstruktur in der Umgebung abh{\"a}ngt, ist es wichtig diese fledermausfreundlich zu gestalten, um die {\"O}kosystemleistung der Sch{\"a}dlingskontrolle {\"u}ber Agrarfl{\"a}chen nutzen zu k{\"o}nnen. Schlussendlich tr{\"a}gt diese Arbeit in ihrer Gesamtheit zum bestehenden Wissen {\"u}ber die Fledermausbiologie und -{\"o}kologie bei und verdeutlicht die komplexen Wechselwirkungen unterschiedlicher Einfl{\"u}sse auf mehreren raum-zeitlichen Ebenen. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit k{\"o}nnen als Basis zur Verbesserung und Entwicklung von Schutzmaßnahmen f{\"u}r Flederm{\"a}use in intensiv genutzten Agrarlandschaften dienen. Da Flederm{\"a}use als gute Bioindikatoren gelten, k{\"o}nnen effektive Schutzmaßnahmen f{\"u}r Flederm{\"a}use auch zum Schutz anderer Arten beitragen und damit potenziell den weiteren Verlust der Biodiversit{\"a}t in Agrarlandschaften abschw{\"a}chen.}, language = {en} } @article{HeimLenskiSchulzeetal.2017, author = {Heim, Olga and Lenski, Johannes and Schulze, Jelena and Jung, Kirsten and Kramer-Schadt, Stephanie and Eccard, Jana and Voigt, Christian C.}, title = {The relevance of vegetation structures and small water bodies for bats foraging above farmland}, series = {Basic and applied ecology : Journal of the Gesellschaft f{\"u}r {\"O}kologie}, volume = {27}, journal = {Basic and applied ecology : Journal of the Gesellschaft f{\"u}r {\"O}kologie}, publisher = {Elsevier GMBH}, address = {M{\"u}nchen}, issn = {1439-1791}, doi = {10.1016/j.baae.2017.12.001}, pages = {9 -- 19}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Bats are known to forage and commute close to vegetation structures when moving across the agricultural matrix, but the role of isolated landscape elements in arable fields for bat activity is unknown. Therefore, we investigated the influence of small isolated ponds which lie within arable fields close to vegetation structures on the flight and foraging activity of bats. Additionally, we compared species-specific activity measures between forest edges and linear structures such as hedgerows. We repeatedly recorded bat activity using passive acoustic monitoring along 20 transects extending from the vegetation edge up to 200 m into the arable field (hereafter: edge-field interface) with a small pond present at five transects per edge type (linear vs. forest). Using generalized linear mixed effect models, we analyzed the effects of edge type, pond presence and the season on species-specific flight and foraging activity within the edge-field interface. We found a higher flight activity of Nyctalus noctula and Pipistrellus pygmaeus above the arable field when a pond was present. Furthermore, Pipistrellus nathusii and Pipistrellus pipistrellus foraged more frequently at forest edges than at linear structures (e.g. hedgerows). Additionally, we found three major patterns of seasonal variation in the activity of bats along the edge-field interface. This study highlights the species-specific and dynamic use of forest and hedgerow or tree line edges by bats and their importance for different bat species in the agricultural landscape. Further, additional landscape elements such as small isolated ponds within arable fields might support the activity of bats above the open agricultural landscape, thereby facilitating agroecosystem functioning. Therefore, additional landscape elements within managed areas should be restored and protected against the conversion into arable land and better linked to surrounding landscape elements in order to efficiently support bats within the agroecosystem.}, language = {en} } @article{HeimTrenseSokolovaetal.2017, author = {Heim, Wieland and Trense, Daronja and Sokolova, Galina V. and Kitagawa, Tamaki}, title = {Increased populations of endangered cranes after Amur River flood}, series = {Waterbirds}, volume = {40}, journal = {Waterbirds}, publisher = {Waterbirds SOC}, address = {Washington}, issn = {1524-4695}, doi = {10.1675/063.040.0309}, pages = {282 -- 288}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Dam construction on the Zeya River, which is an important tributary of the Amur River in Far East Russia, has caused significant declines in water levels and frequency of floods in the adjacent floodplains since 1980.

Until now, research has mostly focused on individual effects of herbivory or plant-soil feedbacks (PSFs) on plant growth and community composition, but few studies have explicitly investigated herbivory in the context of PSFs. These few studies, however, were performed under greenhouse conditions even though PSFs and herbivory may differ between greenhouse and field conditions. Therefore, we performed a field experiment in a grassland, testing the growth responses of three grass species that consistently differ in local abundance, on soils previously conditioned by these species. We tested these PSF effects for the three species both in the presence and in the absence of aboveground herbivores. Without herbivores, the two subdominant species suffered from negative PSF effects. However, in the presence of herbivores and on heterospecific soils, the same two species experienced a significant loss of shoot biomass, whereas, in contrast, enhanced root growth was observed on conspecific soils, resulting in overall neutral PSF effects. The dominant species was not damaged by herbivores and showed overall neutral PSF effects in the field with and without herbivores. Our study provides empirical evidence that negative PSF effects that exist under natural field conditions in grasslands can be overwhelmed by aboveground herbivory. Hence, potential PSF effects might not be detected in the field, because other abiotic and biotic interactions such as aboveground herbivory have stronger effects on plant performance and might therefore mask or override these PSF effects.}, language = {en} } @article{HenkelColemanSchraplauetal.2017, author = {Henkel, Janin and Coleman, Charles Dominic and Schraplau, Anne and J{\"o}hrens, Korinna and Weber, Daniela and Castro, Jose Pedro and Hugo, Martin and Schulz, Tim Julius and Kr{\"a}mer, Stephanie and Sch{\"u}rmann, Annette and P{\"u}schel, Gerhard Paul}, title = {Induction of Steatohepatitis (NASH) with Insulin Resistance in Wild-type B6 Mice by a Western-type Diet Containing Soybean Oil and Cholesterol}, series = {Molecular medicine}, volume = {23}, journal = {Molecular medicine}, publisher = {Feinstein Inst. for Medical Research}, address = {Manhasset}, issn = {1076-1551}, doi = {10.2119/molmed.2016.00203}, pages = {70 -- 82}, year = {2017}, abstract = {Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) are hepatic manifestations of the metabolic syndrome.

In the current study, a Western-type diet containing soybean oil with high n-6-PUFA and 0.75\% cholesterol (SOD + Cho) induced steatosis, inflammation and fibrosis accompanied by hepatic lipid peroxidation and oxidative stress in livers of C57BL/6-mice, which in addition showed increased weight gain and insulin resistance, thus displaying a phenotype closely resembling all clinical features of NASH in patients with metabolic syndrome. In striking contrast, a soybean oil-containing Western-type diet without cholesterol (SOD) induced only mild steatosis but not hepatic inflammation, fibrosis, weight gain or insulin resistance. Another high-fat diet, mainly consisting of lard and supplemented with fructose in drinking water (LAD + Fru), resulted in more prominent weight gain, insulin resistance and hepatic steatosis than SOD + Cho, but livers were devoid of inflammation and fibrosis. Although both LAD + Fru-and SOD + Cho-fed animals had high plasma cholesterol, liver cholesterol was elevated only in SOD + Cho animals. Cholesterol induced expression of chemotactic and inflammatory cytokines in cultured Kupffer cells and rendered hepatocytes more susceptible to apoptosis. In summary, dietary cholesterol in the SOD + Cho diet may trigger hepatic inflammation and fibrosis.

ED plays an important role in the pathogenesis of contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). The aim of our study was to evaluate serum ADMA concentration as a biomarker of an acute renal damage during the follow-up of 90 days after contrast medium (CM) application. Blood samples were obtained from 330 consecutive patients with diabetes mellitus or mild renal impairment immediately before, 24 and 48 hours after the CM application for coronary angiography. The patients were followed for 90 days. The composite endpoints were major adverse renal events (MARE) defined as occurrence of death, initiation of dialysis, or a doubling of serum creatinine concentration. Overall, ADMA concentration in plasma increased after CM application, although, there was no differences between ADMA levels in patients with and without CIN. ADMA concentration 24 hours after the CM application was predictive for dialysis with a specificity of 0.889 and sensitivity of 0.653 at values higher than 0.71 mu mol/L (area under the curve: 0.854, 95\% confidential interval: 0.767-0.941, P<0.001). This association remained significant in multivariate Cox regression models adjusted for relevant factors of long-term renal outcome. 24 hours after the CM application, ADMA concentration in plasma was predictive for MARE with a specificity of 0.833 and sensitivity of 0.636 at a value of more than 0.70 mu mol/L (area under the curve: 0.750, 95\% confidence interval: 0.602-0.897, P=0.004). Multivariate logistic regression analysis confirmed that ADMA and anemia were significant predictors of MARE. Further analysis revealed that increased ADMA concentration in plasma was highly significant predictor of MARE in patients with CIN. Moreover, patients with CIN and MARE had the highest plasma ADMA levels 24 hours after CM exposure in our study cohort. The impact of ADMA on MARE was independent of such known CIN risk factors as anemia, pre-existing renal failure, pre-existing heart failure, and diabetes. ADMA concentration in plasma is a promising novel biomarker of major contrast-induced nephropathy-associated events 90 days after contrast media exposure.}, language = {en} }
