Optimización de la metodología para la producción de hongos comestibles

El cultivo de hongos comestibles saprófitos constituye un sistema de producción-consumo, que ha adquirido gran relevancia social, económica y ecológica. Con el fin de abaratar costes a la vez que aprovechar y reciclar residuos forestales, el objetivo de este trabajo se ha centrado en evaluar la viabilidad del aserrín de Eucalyptus globulus como soporte del cultivo en bolsa de Lentinula edodes (hongo comercializado conocido como Shiitake) y Agrocybe aegerita (hongo no comercializado comúnmente llamado Seta de Chopo). Se han evaluado 6 formulaciones, todas ellas con el aserrín como componente principal y con adición de diferentes suplementos: cereales (salvado y mijo), un controlador del pH (CaCO3) y un estimulador de crecimiento (CaSO4). Se ha determinado el crecimiento miceliar sobre cada uno de los sustratos, así como la producción de carpoforos (tanto en cantidad como en calidad) y la duración del periodo de fructificación. La mezcla más efectiva para la producción de L. edodes fue aquella que contenía yeso y azúcar mientras que para A. aegerita el salvado resultó ser el mejor suplemento.

Estudo da virulência, adesão e características fenotípicas de isolados do complexo Sporothrix

A esporotricose é uma doença micótica, infecciosa e crônica, que envolve o tecido cutâneo e subcutâneo, e que pode afetar seres humanos e animais. Esta micose sempre foi atribuída a um único patógeno, o Sporothrix schenckii, um fungo termodimórfico, que cresce como levedura a 37 C e como micélio à temperatura ambiente. No entanto, nos últimos anos, foi demonstrado que isolados identificados como S. schenckii apresentavam grande variabilidade genética, sugerindo que este táxon consiste em um complexo de espécies. Esta doença é causada pela implantação traumática do patógeno fúngico, porém, os mecanismos de invasão e disseminação deste microorganismo, bem como as moléculas envolvidas nestes processos, ainda são pouco conhecidos. Com base nessas informações, este trabalho visa identificar moléculas de superfície deste patógeno envolvidas na interação deste fungo com proteínas matriciais, bem como analisar diferenças fenotípicas entre espécies do denominado complexo Sporothrix. Foram utilizados, neste estudo, cinco isolados de Sporothrix spp., sendo três isolados clínicos, um isolado ambiental e um isolado de gato. A virulência de cada isolado foi comparada à capacidade adesiva à proteína matricial fibronectina. Foi observado que os isolados com maior capacidade infectiva eram os que apresentavam maior capacidade adesiva à fibronectina. Verificamos então a expressão de adesinas para fibronectina na superfície de cada isolado, por Western blot, e observamos que os isolados mais virulentos e com maior capacidade adesiva expressavam mais adesinas para fibronectina. Bandas reativas com o anticorpo monoclonal contra adesina gp70 (mAb P6E7) foram reveladas nos extratos de parede celular dos isolados estudados. Análises por microscopia confocal revelaram a co-localização da gp70 com a adesina para fibronectina na superfície dos isolados. Análises filogenéticas demonstraram que os isolados estudados possuíam diferenças genotípicas capazes de agrupá-los em duas espécies, S. schenckii e S. brasiliensis. Esta análise revelou que o isolado avirulento era S. brasiliensis e não S. schenckii, como se pensava. Este dado novo nos levou a verificar se a virulência e as características fenotípicas estariam relacionadas ao genótipo. A avaliação da virulência mostrou que outro isolado de S. brasiliensis era tão virulento quanto os isolados de S. schenckii. Além disso, as características morfológicas, como tamanho, forma e perfil de crescimento, das fases miceliana e leveduriforme, e características microscópicas da parede das leveduras também foram avaliadas. Porém, não foi possível correlacionar, de forma clara, a morfologia celular com a especiação do gênero Sporothrix. A expressão da gp70 na superfície das duas espécies foi verificada e foi observado que o isolado virulento de S. brasiliensis quase não expressa a gp70 na sua superfície em contraste com o isolado avirulento de S. brasiliensis, que além de expressar esta glicoproteína em grande quantidade ainda a libera para o meio extracelular. Este estudo mostra que há uma correlação direta entre virulência e expressão de adesinas, porém, sem qualquer relação entre características fenotípicas e genótipo.

Perfil de secreção de citocinas e de ativação de células endoteliais após interação com cepas selvagens e mutantes de Aspergillus fumigatus

Apesar do desenvolvimento de novas drogas antifúngicas e da sua utilização como terapia profilática visando à prevenção de infecções fúngicas invasivas, estas ainda constituem-se num problema emergente, com elevadas taxas de mortalidade. Neste contexto, destaca-se a aspergilose invasiva, uma infecção fúngica oportunista que acomete pacientes com neutropenia profunda e prolongada, principalmente os pacientes com leucemia aguda ou submetidos a transplante de medula óssea. Aspergillus fumigatus, um fungo filamentoso, é o principal agente etiológico da aspergilose invasiva, sendo um patógeno angioinvasivo. As hifas deste fungo são capazes de causar injúria e ativação endotelial, induzindo o endotélio a um fenótipo pró-trombótico, que por sua vez, é mediado pela secreção de citocinas pró-inflamatórias, em especial, o TNF-α. O presente trabalho teve como objetivo estudar a capacidade de cepas mutantes de A. fumigatus em ativar células endoteliais, avaliando o perfil de secreção de citocinas em meio condicionado e a expressão de fator tecidual. Resumidamente, monocamadas confluentes de células endoteliais isoladas da veia umbilical humana foram incubadas com conídios e tubos germinativos de cepas selvagens (Af293 e Ku80) e mutantes (Δugm1, ΔcalA, ΔcrzA, ΔprtT) de A. fumigatus. A taxa de adesão e endocitose destas cepas às monocamadas de HUVEC foi avaliada a partir de um ensaio quantitativo de imunofluorescência diferencial. O perfil cinético de secreção de citocinas foi determinado em meio condicionado das HUVECs, por ensaio de multiplex para IL-6, IL-8 e TNF-α. A ativação endotelial, por sua vez, foi determinada pela expressão de fator tecidual por RT-PCR em tempo real. Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que a mutante para o gene ugm1, responsável por codificar a enzima UDP-galactopiranose mutase, que converte resíduos de galactopiranose a galactofuranose, apresentou um fenótipo hiperaderente às células endoteliais e um estímulo 10 vezes maior à secreção de TNF-α e 2,5 vezes maior a secreção de IL-6, quando comparada a ativação observada para as cepas selvagens. A galactofuranose é um componente importante de glicoconjugados da parede celular de A. fumigatus. Dessa forma, a ausência desse monossacarídeo na célula fúngica leva a um mecanismo compensatório caracterizado por um aumento na expressão de moléculas de galactosaminogalactana na parede celular. De maneira contrária, mutantes para os genes calA e crzA, apresentaram um fenótipo hipoaderente às HUVECs e uma perda na capacidade de induzir a secreção de citocinas e ativar o endotélio. Essas mutantes apresentam deleções que interferem na via de cálcio/calcineurina, responsável por regular a morfogênese e virulência de A. fumigatus, além de apresentarem alterações no conteúdo de beta-1-3 glucana. Já a cepa ΔprtT, mutante para o fator de transcrição prtT que regula a secreção de múltiplas proteases, apresentou um fenótipo de adesão, estímulo e ativação endotelial semelhante ao observado para as cepas selvagens. A comparação entre a capacidade de conídios e tubos germinativos em ativar células endoteliais, corroborou achados anteriores da literatura que reportam que só hifas são capazes de ativar células endoteliais, independentemente da sua viabilidade. Os dados deste estudo permitiram concluir que dentre os componentes de superfície celular de A. fumigatus, os polímeros de galactose, em especial a galactosaminogalactana, parecem ser responsáveis, pelo menos em parte, pelos mecanismos de interação e ativação endotelial.

Estudo proteômico da interação do Aspergillus fumigatus com células endoteliais da veia umbilical humana (HUVECs)

O Aspergillus fumigatus é o principal agente etiológico da aspergilose invasiva, uma infecção fúngica oportunista que acomete, principalmente, pacientes de Unidades Hematológicas, como aqueles com neutropenia profunda e prolongada. Após a filamentação este fungo angioinvasivo é capaz de ativar e causar danos em células endoteliais de veia umbilical humana (HUVEC) que passam a expressar um fenótipo pró-trombótico. A ativação destas células, dependente de contato célulacélula, é mediada por TNF-α e caracterizada pela expressão de moléculas próinflamatórias, como citocinas, quimiocinas e moléculas de adesão. Recentemente, nosso grupo comparou a ativação endotelial de HUVECs desafiadas com cepas selvagens e uma cepa mutante para o gene UGM1. Nestes experimentos a cepa mutante Δugm1, que apresenta um fenótipo de maior produção de galactosaminogalactana (GAG) na parede celular, mostrou um fenótipo hiperadesivo e uma capacidade maior de ativar células endoteliais. Entretanto, os receptores e as vias de sinalização envolvidos nesta ativação permanecem desconhecidos. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi verificar as proteínas envolvidas nestes processos através do estudo das proteínas diferencialmente expressas nas HUVECs após a interação com A. fumigatus, usando a técnica proteômica 2D-DIGE. Brevemente, as HUVECs foram infectadas com tubos germinativos da cepa selvagem (AF293) e da cepa Δugm1 de A. fumigatus. Em seguida, as proteínas foram marcadas com diferentes fluorocromos e separadas por eletroforese bidimensional. A análise quantitativa foi realizada utilizando o software DeCyder. Foram identificadas por MS/MS cinco proteínas diferencialmente expressas, incluindo a galectina-1 e a anexina A2, ambas mais expressas após a interação, sendo a primeira ~25% mais expressa após a interação com a mutante Δugm1. Este trabalho propõe que a galectina-1 poderia ser o receptor endotelial para polímeros de galactose presentes na parede celular do A. fumigatus, e que a Anexina A2 poderia estar envolvida na sinalização intracelular em resposta a este patógeno. No entanto, experimentos complementares, em curso, são necessários para comprovar esta hipótese.

Isolation and culture in artificial media of Lagenidium from Penaeus monodon larvae

Fungal infection of P. monodon larvae is a problem in hatchery operations. The fungus, which attacks the nauplius to postlarval stages and causes up to 100% mortality, has been tentatively identified as belonging to the genus Lagenidium . This pathogenic organism has recently been isolated and cultured. A description is given of the fungus, and features of its biology and pathology are discussed.

In-vitro effect of fungicides on hyphal growth and sporogenesis of Lagenidium sp. isolated from Penaeus monodon larvae and Scylla serrata eggs

The sensitivity of Lagenidium, isolated from Penaeus monodon, Scylla serrata , to 34 antimycotics was determined. Effects on the development of vesicles, zoospores and mycelial growth were evaluated. Although mycoidal levels of the chemicals tested will be ideal for lethal treatment on control of the fungus, the high dose required may be lethal to the host, thus the use of mycostatic concentrations is more practical. Treatments of rearing water containing larvae, adult shrimps or crabs should be done only after preliminary tolerance experiments using at least the mycostatic dose prove to be safe for the hosts. Mycocidal doses can be used for determining disinfection doses of equipment and facilities used in rearing procedures as well as for destroying batches of infected larvae.

Studies on the fungal diseases in crustaceans. I. Lagenidum scyllae sp. nov. isolated from cultivated ova and larvae of the mangrove crab (Scylla serrata)

Lagenidium scyllae , a marine mastigomycete from the ova and larvae of the mangrove crab, is described and illustrated as new. The fungus grew at a temperature range of 16-42 C, with an optimum at 22.5-31.8 C. It grew well in peptone-yeast-glucose (PYG) broth containing 2-3% NaCl. In PYG-sea water medium, it grew at a pH range of 5-11.

Rearing of Procypris rabaudi during early life-history stages

The early life-history of Chinese rock carp Procypris rabaudi was investigated during a 56-day rearing period: 318 artificially propagated P. rabaudi larvae were reared throughout metamorphosis in a small-scale recirculation system (345 L water volume, 10 x 18 L rearing tanks, 150 L storage and filter compartment with bioballs, 20-30 larvae L-1) at the Institute of Hydrobiology, Wuhan, Hubei Province, China. The newly hatched larvae had an initial total length of 8.93 +/- 0.35 mm SD (n = 10) at 3 days post-hatch and reached an average total length of 33.29 mm (+/- 1.88 mm SD, n = 10) 56 days after hatching. Length increment averaged 0.45 mm day(-1), resulting in a mean growth of 24.4 mm within the 56-day period. High mortality rates of up to 92% derived from an introduced fungus infection and subsequent treatment stress with malachite green. Our results indicate that Chinese rock carp can be raised successfully from artificially fertilized eggs. We therefore assume this species to be a candidate for commercial aquaculture.

Lactarius insulsus. Cortinarius russus can be growth in broad PH rang in pure culture, the optimum growth PH is acidity. The external morphology and internal structure of ectomycorrhiza of P. massoniana are affected with simulated acid rain. In greenhouse, simulated acid rain (PH2.0) treatment caused significant decrease in the percent infection, but it's not marked in field. The PH of mycorrhizal and soil are reduced with reducing rainfall PH. These PH are slight higher for inoculation with ectomycorrhizal fungi. Catalase activity of ectomycorrhizal fungus is not sensitive to medium with different PH. Mycorrhiza catalase activiyt is not affected significantly with simulated acid rain, but it's inhibited significantly with simulated acid rain (PH2.0) in the sand culture. Peroxidase atcivity of mycorrhiza is enhanced significantly with simulated acid rain (PH2.0), but it's universally lower for inoculation with ectomycorrhizal fungus. Ectomycorrhizal fungus nitrate reductase activity is affected significantly to medium with differdnt PH, the rates of these fungi growth and nitrate reductase activity is significant correlation. Nitrate reductase activity of mycorrhiza is inhibited significantly with simulated acid rain (PH 2.0), but it's increased significantly for inocnlation with mycorrhizal fungi. Ectomycorrhizal fungas acid phosphatase activity is not affected to medium with different PH, Mycorrhiza acid phosphatase activity is not affected with simulated acid rain too, the acid phosphatase activity of roots inoculated with mycorrhizal fungas is increased significantly. The highest acidity level simulated rain reduced signhficantly root system biomass and the dry weight of stem. Iower acidity level simulated rain can stimulated the growth of P. massoniana, the growth of seedling inocnlated with mycorrhizal fungus can be increased.

白腐菌选择性降解木质素的研究

对15株白腐真菌进行了以玉米秸秆为基质的初步筛选，从中获得一株选择性系数较高的菌株Y10，并对其降解玉米秸秆的情况进行了研究。结果表明，在30天的培养过程中菌株Y10对玉米秸秆降解的选择性系数都大于1，第15天选择性系数最高为3.88。对未经降解和降解过的玉米秸秆分别作了紫外光谱和红外光谱分析，结果表明，经该菌降解后玉米秸秆的化学成分发生了很大变化，且木质素的降解程度要大于纤维素的降解程度。对菌株Y10进行了ITS-5.8S rDNA序列鉴定，初步判定其为Cerrena sp.。 为了考查不同的外源添加物对菌株Y10降解玉米秸秆的影响，在以玉米秸秆为基质的固态发酵培养基中分别添加了7种金属离子、8种碳源、6种氮源。结果显示，这7种金属离子均能促进木质素的降解，并且一定浓度的某些离子明显抑制纤维素的降解；其中添加0.036%的MnSO4·H2O和0.36%的MgSO4·7H2O对纤维素降解的抑制作用比较强，降解率分别为0.96%和1.31%，木质素的选择性系数分别达到了34.40和20.17。8种碳源中除麦芽糖外都能促进木质素的降解，除微晶纤维素外都明显促进纤维素的降解。6种氮源中酒石酸铵、硫酸铵、草酸铵和氯化铵的添加都会使该菌生长变慢，而且氮源浓度越高菌丝生长越慢。外加碳源和金属离子对半纤维素降解和选择性系数的影响不大。 同时对菌株Y10在液态培养下产木质素降解酶的条件和培养基做了优化。结果表明，在初始产酶培养基中，菌株Y10的漆酶酶活在第10d达到最高，锰过氧化物酶酶活在第11d达到最高，基本上检测不到木质素过氧化物酶。菌株Y10产漆酶的最适温度为32℃，最适PH为6.0；产锰过氧化物酶的最适温度为32℃，最适PH为6.5。菌株Y10产漆酶的最佳碳源为甘露糖，最佳氮源为酒石酸铵，最适诱导剂VA浓度为3 mmol/L，最适表面活性剂TW-80浓度为1%。 利用响应面法对其产漆酶的培养基进行优化，优化后的培养基配方为葡萄糖10.00 g/L，酒石酸铵0.50 g/L，大量元素296.50 ml/L，微量元素100.00 ml/L，NTA 1.40 g/L，VA 5.00 mmol/L，吐温-80加入量为0.10%。进行了菌株Y10产漆酶的验证实验，实测酶活为5282.56 U/L，与预测酶活5162.73 U/L接近。在优化后培养基中，菌株Y10在第14 d达到生长的最高峰，第20 d时，漆酶酶活最高，为11325.00 U/L；第16 d时，锰过氧化物酶酶活最高，为30.77 U/L。 对菌株Y10的漆酶酶学性质做了初步的研究，结果显示，酶反应的最适温度为40℃-65℃，最适PH为3.0。在40℃，PH=3.0时，漆酶催化ABTS反应的米氏方程为 。 Fifteen white-rot fungi based on corn stalk were screened. One white-rot fungus Y10 with high selectivity value was obtained. The degradation of corn stalk was initially studied. The results indicated that the selectivity value was above 1 during the 30 day-cultivation and the highest was 3.88 after 15 days. The composition of untreated and treated stalk was analyzed through ultraviolet spectroscopy and infrared spectroscopy. It was found that the composition of treated stalk was greatly altered and the degree of the degradation of lignin is greater than the cellulose. Y10 was identified as Cerrena sp. by ITS -5.8S rDNA sequence analysis. The influence of metal ions, carbon sources and nitrogen sources on corn stalk degradation by white-rot fungus was studied. While all seven metal ions could promote lignin degradation, the cellulose degradation was best inhibited at certain ion concentrations. Notably, when 0.036% MnSO4·H2O and 0.36% MgSO4·7H2O were added into the medium, the cellulose degradation was restrained to the extents that the coefficients of lignin selectivity rose to 34.40 and 20.17 respectively. It was also found that all carbon sources except maltose can promote lignin degradation. The addition of carbon sources other than microcrystalline cellulose significantly promoted cellulose degradation. The addition of the nitrogen sources, ammonium tartrate, ammonium sulfate, oxalate, ammonium chloride, resulted in remarkable inhibition to mycelium growth; the larger the concentrations of nitrogen sources are, the slower the mycelium grew. The addition of carbon sources and metal ions had less impact on the degradation of hemicellulose and selectivity value. Meanwhile, we optimized the conditions and culture medium of the lignin-degrading enzyme production of strain Y10. The results showed that in the initial culture medium, the Lac activity was highest at the 10th day, the MnP activity was highest at the 11th day and the LiP could not be detected. The optimum condition of Lac was at temperature 32 and PH =6.0 and the optimum condition of MnP was at temperature 32 and PH =6.5. The optimum carbon source for Lac was seminose, the optimum nitrogen source was ammonium tartrate, the optimum content of VA was 3 mmol/L, the optimum content of TW-80 was 1%. PB and RSM were used to optimize the culture medium of laccase by white-rot fungus Y10. The optimum culture medium was consist of glucose 10.00 g/L, ammonium tartrate 0.50 g/L, macro elements 296.50 ml/L, trace elements 100.00 ml/L, NTA 1.40 g/L, VA 5.00 mmol/L, TW-80 0.10%. Under the optimal conditions, the activity of laccase was 5282.56 U/L and the experimental value agreed with the predicted value 5162.73 U/L. The biomass was highest at the 14th day, the Lac activity was highest at the 20th day, the MnP activity was highest at the 16th day. The results of the studies on the characteristics of Lac showed that the optimum temperature for Lac activity is 40℃-65℃ ; the optimum PH for Lac activity is 3.0 and under 40℃，PH=3.0, the Michaelis-menten equation of Lac catalized ABTS oxidation was .

己酸乙酯酯化真菌筛选及发酵条件研究

本文主要研究了具有己酸乙酯酯化活性的真菌菌株的筛选和发酵条件优化。从大曲和糟醅样品中分离纯化获得79株产生透明圈的丝状真菌，菌落形态初步识别结果显示分离菌株包括红曲霉属、根霉属及曲霉属等菌株。其中菌株EM-56酯化酶活力最强，发酵获得的粗酶制剂酶活为172.36 u。根据显微形态、菌落形态及生理生化特征，初步鉴定该菌株为曲霉科红曲霉属紫色红曲霉（Monascus purpureus）。 在此基础上重点研究了菌株EM-56在不同培养基成分及不同培养条件下的产酶情况，确定了最佳培养基和培养条件。通过单因素实验确定在基础培养基中添加最佳碳源为葡萄糖，最佳氮源为蛋白胨。正交优化实验结果确定了最佳培养基组成：以麸皮为基础培养基，添加葡萄糖 2%，蛋白胨 0.3 %，KH2PO4.3H2O 0.05 %，MgSO4.7H2O 0.06 %。菌株EM-56在上述培养基中的最佳发酵条件为：初始pH 5.5，发酵温度为35°C，发酵时间7d，种龄48h，接种量8%，装瓶量50g / 瓶（500mL）。在最佳培养基和发酵条件下，菌株EM-56发酵获得的粗酶制剂酶活达到241.56 u，比优化前提高了40.15%。 In this paper, the research focuses on the selection of fungus with esterifying activity and optimization of fermentation conditions. We isolated 79 strains which had transparent zones from Daqu and fermented grains. The isolated strains contained Monascus、Rhizopus and Aspergillus through primary morphology analysis. The strain of EM-56 which produces strongest esterase was selected. The enzyme activity reached 172.36u. According to related literature, EM-56 was identified as Monascus purpureus through morphology analysis and biochemical determination. We also studied the effects of different medium and fermentation conditions on the esterase production of strain EM-56. The optimal medium and fermentation conditions were determined. Single factor experiment result shows that the optimal carbon source added is glucose and the optimal nitrogen source added is peptone. The optimal fermentation medium determined by orthogonal optimization test is as follows: wheat bran as substrate, glucose 2%, peptone 0.3%, KH2PO4.3H2O 0.05%，MgSO4.7H2O 0.06%. The optimal fermentation conditions are: initial pH 5.5, cultural temperature 35°C, cultural time 7d, seed age 48h, inoculation 8%, medium mass 50g / flask（500mL）.

齐墩果酸（OA）是一个分布广泛、含量丰富的天然三萜化合物，常以皂苷元的形式广泛存在于植物中,具有多种重要生物活性。但是OA许多活性较弱，且生物利用度低，限制了其在临床上的应用。一是OA水溶性差;二是抗癌活性仍与临床应用的抗癌药物相差比较大。 真菌在微生物转化中具有种类多、培养条件比较简单等特点，为了寻找到具有转化OA能力的菌株，采取一步发酵的方法，在18株实验室保藏真菌菌株中筛选到5株目的菌株,TLC分析显示有转化效果。 随后采用二步发酵的方法作为复筛，验证5株菌株转化能力，波谱分析结果表明5株菌株对OA确实有转化作用。 选择5株菌种中代号1F-2 2菌株作为放大实验菌株，分离转化产物，得到OA衍生物108（相对分子量414m/z）和1010（相对分子量340 m/z），分离出的产物用于活性检测。寻找到产物108的RP-HPLC分离条件，质谱得出二者相对分子质量。 为验证OA转化产物抗肿瘤活性，首次研究了OA对卵巢癌细胞株IGROV1和人乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB-231作用，通过细胞增殖抑制实验、用MTT法检测细胞活性，结果表明齐墩果酸可降低卵巢癌细胞株IGROV1和乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231细胞增殖能力并呈剂量依赖性，对肿瘤细胞株的半数有效抑制浓度化IC50 分别为36.58μg/mL和38.8μg/mL (P<0．01)。OA能抑制肿瘤细胞活性，并且OA对卵巢癌细胞株IGROV1抑制活性高于乳腺癌细胞MDA-MB-231。 在此基础上，转化产物108和1010对卵巢癌细胞株IGROV1和人乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB-231的抑制作用也进行研究，MTT实验结果表明，转化产物对两株癌细胞也有抑制活性（P<0．01）。 总之，本文工作为进一步开展齐墩果酸类化合物结构改造和抗肿瘤活性的研究奠定了基础。 Oleanolic acid (OA) is a triterpenoid widely distributed in the nature which possesses various important bioactivities. OA also serves as aglycon of many natural saponins. However, the relatively weak activities and poor bioavailability hinder its clinical use. Firstly, poor water-solubility results in worse bioavailability. Secondly, compared with clinical antitumor drug, the antitumor effect of OA has a great difference, it is worse. Many fungi have ability to transform nature products into a variety of derivatives, and transformation conditions of fungi are simple. Attempt to obtain fungi strains able to biotransform OA, we carried out the following experiments: To investigate the biotransformation 0f OA by strains supplied firstly, we used one-step fermentation method to screen the aimed strains from 18 fungus strains stored in our laboratory. On the basis of the initial screening experiments, we found 5 aimed strains. The TLC results showed that the 5 fungi strains could transform OA into other components derivatives. Then we used two-step fermentation method as secondly screening. We repeated the five strains to do the experiments, analytical data of the results proved the transformation indeed. In the followed experiments work, we chose 1F-2 2 strain as large-scale transformation fungus from the aimed fungi. We got two biotransformation products of OA by 1F-2 2, and named those derivatives 108 and 1010. We found RP-HPLC separation conditions of product 108. The two products were characterized by ESI-MS. To verify the anti-tumor activity of biotransformation products of OA, we studied the inhibition effect of oleanolic acid on the ovarian carcinomas IGROV1 and breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 firstly. With an assay based on a tetrazolium dye (MTT), the effects of various concentrations of oleanolic acid on ovarian carcinomas IGROV1 and breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231 were studied. MTT method was used to measure the tumor cells viability. Compared with the control group, oleanolic acid can significantly inhibit the viability of the ovarian carcinoma cells IGROV1 and MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell line (P<0．01), IC50 values were 36.58μg/mL or 38.8μg/mL. Oleanolic acid can inhibit the malignant tumor cells viability, and inhibitory activity of OA to ovarian carcinomas IGROV1 was higher than to breast cancer cell line MDA-MB-231. On this basis, we studied the anti-tumor activity of the two derivatives of OA [called 108 (414 m/z) and 1010(340 m/z)]. It came to the conclusion that the two derivatives also showed potent inhibitory effect on the growth of these tumor cells（P<0．01）. Therefore, the results of studies will benefit the further investigating on the relationships of structures and antitumor activities of OA.

Based on these optimal parameters, the fermentation of dilute-acid hydrolyzate of the corn core was carried on by Z7. According to the quantities of released sugar monomers and content of the ethanol, 115℃ in 1h is the best pretreatment condition; the maximal ethanol content can be obtained when 1g/L Tween 20 was added to. Therefore, the filamentous fungus Aspergillus flavus can use the hydrolysate of hemicellulose to produce ethanol, and the rate of xylose utilization was over 80%. Part3: Optimization of Z7’s xylanase producing condition from corn core. Aspergillus flavus Z7, which can utilize xylose or the hydrolysate of hemicellulose to produce ethanol, also had the ability of xylanase production.
