有孔虫和放射虫的采集和保存

采集对于有孔虫的采集,可以借助于放大镜的帮助,直接从珊瑚藻等藻类上采集。也可将一个下面紧缚着一块细筛绢的筛,浸在海水里,里面放上几撮海藻并加以摇荡。这样,透过筛底的有孔虫就可以被下面的筛绢所收集。还可以把从海底捞上来的泥沙,倒入盛有海水的容器中,加以搅拌,活的有孔虫即可沉到水底。倒掉上部的水和微粒,即可收集。浮游的种类,可用拖网采集。     

糖类和蛋白质相互作用的应用和展望

既然糖和蛋白质相互作用与许多生理和病理过程有关,那么糖和蛋白质相互作用的研究也就有其广泛的应用价值。 (一)免疫毒素和“生物导弹”目前用于肿瘤治疗的免疫毒素被通俗地别称为“生物导弹”,很是引人注目。原因是免疫毒素以对肿瘤细胞表面特征抗原专一的单克隆抗体作为“导向”分子,使与之相连的作为“弹头”的毒素富集到肿瘤细胞内,从而既能提高疗效又能降低毒素对正常细胞的伤害。就“生物导弹”这一词而言,凡是能把某种分子或组份定向地送到特定的靶细胞或靶器官,

微透析测试刺激皮肤和肌肉神经引起的天门冬氨酸和谷氨酸在脊髓的释放

为分析ＮＭＤＡ和非ＮＭＤＡ受体在介导脊髓不同性质疼痛的机能分化,应用微透析技术,测量刺激皮肤和肌肉神经引起的天门冬氨酸（Ａｓｐ）和谷氨酸（Ｇｌｕ）在脊髓背角的释放。电刺激皮肤神经兴奋Ｃ纤维诱发的Ａｓｐ和Ｇｌｕ的释放分别是基础值的（３２３±５５）％（Ｐ＜００１）和（１６９±１６）％（Ｐ＜００５）;电刺激肌肉神经兴奋Ｃ纤维诱发的Ａｓｐ和Ｇｌｕ的释放分别是基础值的（１５０±１６）％（Ｐ＜００１）和（２１８±４２）％（Ｐ＜００５）。兴奋皮肤传入引起的Ａｓｐ释放明显高于Ｇｌｕ的释放（约３倍）;而兴奋肌肉传入引起的Ｇｌｕ释放明显高于Ａｓｐ的释放（约２倍）。从而提示,皮肤伤害性传入主要引起Ａｓｐ的释放增加,而肌肉的伤害性传入则主要引起Ｇｌｕ的释放增加,它们分别主要作用于ＮＭＤＡ和非ＮＭＤＡ受体而介导不同的痛传入信息。

Presynaptic α2 Adrenoceptors Inhibit Glutamate Release from Rat Spinal Cord Synaptosomes

Abstract: The presynaptic regulation of amino acid release from nerve terminals was investigated using synaptosomes prepared from the rat spinal cord. The basal releases of endogenous glutamate (Glu), aspartate (Asp), and γ-amino-butyric acid (GABA) were 34.6, 21.5, and 10.0 pmol/min/mg of protein, respectively. Exposure to a depolarizing concentration of KCl (30 m M ) evoked 2.7-, 1.5-, and 2.9-fold increases in Glu, Asp, and GABA release, respectively. Clonidine reduced the K⁺-evoked overflow of Glu to 56% of the control overflow with a potency (IC₅₀) of 17 n M , but it did not affect K⁺-evoked overflow of Asp, GABA, and their basal releases. Similarly, noradrenaline inhibited the K⁺-evoked overflow of Glu, although phenylephrine and isoproterenol showed no effect. The inhibitory effect of clonidine was counteracted by α₂-adrenoceptor antagonists, rauwolscine, yohimbine, and idazoxan, regardless of the imidazoline structures. Because Glu is considered a neurotransmitter of primary afferents that transmit both nociceptive and nonnociceptive stimuli in the spinal cord, these data suggest that part of Glu release may be regulated by the noradrenergic system through α₂ adrenoceptors localized on the primary afferent terminals.     

Activation of slowly conducting medullary raphe-spinal neurons, including serotonergic neurons, increases cutaneous sympathetic vasomotor discharge in rabbit

Neurons in the rostral medullary raphe/parapyramidal region regulate cutaneous sympathetic nerve discharge. Using focal electrical stimulation at different dorsoventral raphe/parapyramidal sites in anesthetized rabbits, we have now demonstrated that increases in ear pinna cutaneous sympathetic nerve discharge can be elicited only from sites within 1 mm of the ventral surface of the medulla. By comparing the latency to sympathetic discharge following stimulation at the ventral raphe site with the corresponding latency following stimulation of the spinal cord [third thoracic (T3) dorsolateral funiculus] we determined that the axonal conduction velocity of raphe-spinal neurons exciting ear pinna sympathetic vasomotor nerves is 0.8 +/- 0.1 m/s (n = 6, range 0.6-1.1 m/s). Applications of the 5-hydroxytryptamine (HT)(2A) antagonist trans-4-((3Z)3-[(2-dimethylaminoethyl)oxyimino]-3-(2-fluorophenyl)propen-1-yl)-phenol, hemifumarate (SR-46349B, 80 microg/kg in 0.8 ml) to the cerebrospinal fluid above thoracic spinal cord (T1-T7), but not the lumbar spinal cord (L2-L4), reduced raphe-evoked increases in ear pinna sympathetic vasomotor discharge from 43 +/- 9 to 16 +/- 6% (P < 0.01, n = 8). Subsequent application of the excitatory amino acid (EAA) antagonist kynurenic acid (25 micromol in 0.5 ml) substantially reduced the remaining evoked discharge (22 +/- 8 to 6 +/- 6%, P < 0.05, n = 5). Our conduction velocity data demonstrate that only slowly conducting raphe-spinal axons, in the unmyelinated range, contribute to sympathetic cutaneous vasomotor discharge evoked by electrical stimulation of the medullary raphe/parapyramidal region. Our pharmacological data provide evidence that raphe-spinal neurons using 5-HT as a neurotransmitter contribute to excitation of sympathetic preganglionic neurons regulating cutaneous vasomotor discharge. Raphe-spinal neurons using an EAA, perhaps glutamate, make a substantial contribution to the ear sympathetic nerve discharge evoked by raphe stimulation.     

Role of the medullary lateral tegmental field in reflex-mediated sympathoexcitation in cats

We tested the hypothesis that blockade of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptors on medullary lateral tegmental field (LTF) neurons would reduce the sympathoexcitatory responses elicited by electrical stimulation of vagal, trigeminal, and sciatic afferents, posterior hypothalamus, and midbrain periaqueductal gray as well as by activation of arterial chemoreceptors with intravenous NaCN. Bilateral microinjection of a non-NMDA receptor antagonist into LTF of urethane-anesthetized cats significantly decreased vagal afferent-evoked excitatory responses in inferior cardiac and vertebral nerves to 29 +/- 8 and 24 +/- 6% of control (n = 7), respectively. Likewise, blockade of non-NMDA receptors significantly reduced chemoreceptor reflex-induced increases in inferior cardiac (from 210 +/- 22 to 129 +/- 13% of control; n = 4) and vertebral nerves (from 253 +/- 41 to 154 +/- 20% of control; n = 7) and mean arterial pressure (from 39 +/- 7 to 21 +/- 5 mmHg; n = 8). Microinjection of muscimol, but not an NMDA receptor antagonist, caused similar attenuation of these excitatory responses. Sympathoexcitatory responses to the other stimuli were not attenuated by microinjection of a non-NMDA receptor antagonist or muscimol into LTF. In fact, excitatory responses elicited by stimulation of trigeminal, and in some cases sciatic, afferents were enhanced. These data reveal two new roles for the LTF in control of sympathetic nerve activity in cats. One, LTF neurons are involved in mediating sympathoexcitation elicited by activation of vagal afferents and arterial chemoreceptors, primarily via activation of non-NMDA receptors. Two, non-NMDA receptor-mediated activation of other LTF neurons tonically suppresses transmission in trigeminal-sympathetic and sciatic-sympathetic reflex pathways.     

Role of spinal NMDA and non-NMDA receptors in the pressor reflex response to abdominal ischemia

Abdominal ischemia induces a pressor reflex caused mainly by C-fiber afferent stimulation. Because excitatory amino acids, such as glutamate, bind to N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA [dl-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionate (AMPA)] receptors and serve as important spinal neurotransmitters, we hypothesized that both receptors play a role in the abdominal ischemia pressor reflex. In chloralose-anesthetized cats, NMDA receptor blockade with 25.0 mM dl-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate did not alter the pressor reflex (33 +/- 9 to 33 +/- 7 mmHg, P > 0.05, n = 4), whereas AMPA receptor blockade with 4.0 mM 6-nitro-7-sulfamylbenzo(f)quinoxaline-2,3-dione significantly attenuated the reflex (29 +/- 5 to 16 +/- 4 mmHg, P < 0.05, n = 6). Because several studies suggest that anesthesia masks the effects of glutamatergic receptors, this experiment was repeated on decerebrate cats, and in this group, NMDA receptor blockade with 25.0 mM dl-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoate significantly altered the pressor reflex (36 +/- 3 to 25 +/- 4 mmHg, P < 0.05, n = 5). Our combined data suggest that spinal NMDA and AMPA receptors play a role in the abdominal ischemia pressor reflex.     

NMDA and non-NMDA receptors stimulation causes differential oxidative stress in rat cortical slices

Glutamate receptor activated neuronal cell death is attributed to a massive influx of Ca(2+) and subsequent formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) but the relative contribution of NMDA and non-NMDA sub-types of glutamate receptors in excitotoxicity is not known. In the present study, we have examined the role of NMDA and non-NMDA receptors in glutamate-induced neuronal injury in cortical slices from young (20+/-2 day) and adult (80+/-5 day) rats. Treatment of slices with glutamate receptor agonists NMDA, AMPA and KA elicited the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and neuronal cell death. In young slices, NMDA receptor stimulation caused a higher ROS formation and neurotoxicity, but KA was more effective in producing ROS and cell death in adult slices. AMPA exhibited an intermediate effect on ROS formation and toxicity in both the age groups. A significant protection in glutamate mediated ROS formation and neurotoxicity was observed in presence of NMDA or/and non-NMDA receptors antagonists APV and NBQX, respectively. This further confirms the involvement of both NMDA and non-NMDA receptors in glutamate mediated neurotoxicity. In adult slices, we did not find positive correlation between ligand induced neurotoxicity and mitochondrial depolarization. Though, NMDA and KA stimulation produced differential effect on ROS formation and neurotoxicity in young and adult slices, the mitochondrial depolarization was higher and comparable on NMDA stimulation in both the age groups as compared to KA, suggesting that the mitochondrial depolarization may not be a good indicator for neurotoxicity. Our results demonstrate that both NMDA and non-NMDA sub-types of glutamate receptors are involved in glutamate mediated neurotoxicity but their relative contribution is highly dependent on the age of the animal.     

Presynaptic Glutamate Receptors Regulate Noradrenaline Release from Isolated Nerve Terminals

The wide-ranging neuronal actions of excitatory amino acids, such as glutamate, are thought to be mediated mainly by postsynaptic N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA receptors. We now report the existence of presynaptic glutamate receptors in isolated nerve terminals (synaptosomes) prepared from hippocampus, olfactory bulb, and cerebral cortex. Activation of these receptors by NMDA or non-NMDA agonists, in a concentration-dependent manner, resulted in Ca(2+)-dependent release of noradrenaline from vesicular transmitter stores. The NMDA-stimulated release was potentiated by glycine and was blocked by Mg2+ and selective NMDA antagonists. In contrast, release stimulated by selective non-NMDA agonists was blocked by 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3- dione, but not by Mg2+ or NMDA antagonists. Our data suggest that the presynaptic glutamate receptors can be classified pharmacologically as both the NMDA and non-NMDA types. These receptors, localized on nerve terminals of the locus ceruleus noradrenergic neurons, may play an important role in interactions between noradrenaline and glutamate.
