急性低氧对大鼠血粘度,红细胞变形能力和左心室功能的影响

健康ＳＤ雄性大鼠,体重２５０—３００ｇ,麻醉、气管插管,用人工呼吸机经气袋供气,自发吸入氧浓度为９％的氧氮混合气,用ＳＭＵＰ－ＰＣ生物信号处理系统处理左心室功能。结果：（１）急性低氧经动脉血气分析可见ＰａＯ２下降（Ｐ＜０．０１）,ｐＨ值升高（Ｐ＜０．０５）,ＰａＣＯ２稍下降（Ｐ＞０．０５）,左心室功能各指标如ＬＶＰ,ＨＲ,Ｖｍｐ,±ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ,Ｖｃｅ４０,Ｖｍａｘ,Ｌ０、等均下降;血液流变学指标如全血粘度（高、低切值及其还原值）升高,红细胞滤过指数（ＩＦ）升高;复氧后上述各指标恢复正常。（２）静脉注射心得安（０．５ｍｇ／Ｋｇ）后,使急性低氧诱发的左心室功能各指标更加明显下降,而血液流变学各值不再明显上升;静脉注射酚妥拉明（３ｍｇ／Ｋｇ）后,使急性低氧诱发的血液流变学各值上升不明显。（３）石炭酸破坏双侧颈动脉窦区后也可致低氧诱发的左心室功能各指标进一步下降,而血液流变学指标也不再明显上升。结果提示：急性低氧可引起左心室功能下降和全血粘度升高,红细胞变形能力降低,复氧后可恢复;交感神经活动及颈动脉窦区化学感受性反射可能对抗低氧诱发的左心室功能的下降,促进血粘度的升高。     

高原红细胞增多症患者红细胞二磷酸甘油酸和氧亲和力变化的探讨

在海拔４３００ｍ地区,对１８名移居汉族、２４名世居藏族和２１名高原红细胞增多症（ＨＡＰＣ）患者测定了２,３—二磷酸甘油酸（２,３—ＤＰＧ）和肺通气功能,并进行了血气分析。结果显示：ＨＡＰＣ患者的全血和红细胞内２,３—ＤＰ６浓度均显著高于健康组,但世居、移居健康组之间无明显差异。ＨＡＰＣ组的红细胞２,３—ＤＰＧ和Ｐｄｏ＿２呈显著负相关（ｒ＝—０．７７１,Ｐ＜０．０１）,而在健康组无显著相关（ｒ＝—０．２６,Ｐ＞０．０５）。ＨＡＰＣ组与健康组相比,ｐＨ、Ｐａｏ＿２和Ｓａｏ＿２降低,Ｐａｃｏ＿２和肺泡动脉氧分压差增高。ＨＡＰＣ病人Ｐ＿（５０）为３．７５±０．６６ｋＰａ,健康组为３．４０±０．１２ｋＰａ（Ｐ＜０．０５）,Ｐ＿（５０）与２,３－ＤＰＧ呈正相关（ｒ＝０．５９２,Ｐ＜０．０５）。ＨＡＰＣ组最大呼气中段流量和５０％肺活量最大呼气量明显低于健康组（Ｐ＜０．０１）。本研究提示：①ＨＡＰＣ患者的低氧血症可能与血中２,３－ＤＰＧ浓度过高有关;②轻度肺功能异常亦可促使红细胞进一步增多。     

红景天中药复方对低氧劳动能力的影响

我们研制了以藏产大花红景天为主要成分的中药复方用以提高机体的低氧劳动能力。在模拟海拔１００００ｍ的小鼠游泳实验中,药物组和对照组动物的存活时间分别为７３．２±３．８和６０．５±４．０ｍｍ（Ｐ＜０．０５）;游泳６０ｍｉｎ（相当于对照组的平均存活时间）以后死亡的百分数分别为５３．０％和３５．８％（Ｐ＜０．０５）。大鼠在模拟海拔５０００ｍ游泳１ｈ,药物组和对照组动物的血乳酸含量分别为１４．６±１．８和２１．１±１．９ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ（Ｐ＜０．０５）。在模拟海拔４３００ｍ低压舱内人体运动负荷试验中,药物组和对照组受试者的ＰＷＣ１７０分别为９８０．４±５２．８和８６６．４±３０．０（Ｐ＜０．０１）。提示,红景天中药复方能明显提高低氧劳动能力。     

低氧对新生大鼠脾单个核细胞DNA合成及转化的影响

本研究以荧光法测定脾单个核细胞ＤＮＡ合成及ＭＴＴ比色法测定的脾单个核细胞对ＣｏｎＡ的增殖反应,观察模拟高原低氧对出生后１４天大鼠上述两指标的影响,同时也观察了交感神经和副交感神经的活动状态,以初步探讨低氧对上述两指标的作用是如何介导的。结果表明：５ｋｍ海拔高度低氧作用２４ｈ不抑制脾单个细胞ＤＮＡ合成及脾单个核细胞转化,而作用５天时则抑制ＤＮＡ合成及脾单个核细胞转化,分别为对照组的５６．６％（Ｐ＜０．０１）和８６．８％（Ｐ＜０．０５）;７ｋｍ海拔高度低氧作用２４ｈ,ＤＮＡ合成及脾单个核细胞转化均受抑制,分别为对照组的６１．０％（Ｐ＜０．０１）和８１．２％（Ｐ＜０．０１）;７ｋｍ海拔２４ｈ低氧导致脾脏中乙酰胆碱下降,儿茶酚胺升高;用ＤＳＰ－４中枢药理性损毁ＮＥ神经元,可使脾单个核细胞ＤＮＡ合成的抑制程度减弱,脾脏中儿茶酚胺含量下降。这些结果表明低氧可抑制新生大鼠脾单个核细胞的ＤＮＡ合成及转化,并可能与交感神经兴奋及副交感神经抑制有关     

大鼠中脑腹侧被盖区在睡眠—觉醒调节中的作用

本实验在３１只清醒自由行动的雄性ＳＤ大鼠进行。结果如下：（１）以侧中脑腹侧被盖区（ＶＴＡ）微量注射３．３ｎｍｏｌ溴亭后第２－３ｈ觉醒时间显著增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）;６．６ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭有类似效果;０．６６和１．３３ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭无明显作用。（２）同样方法ＶＴＡ微量注射２ｎｍｏｌ和４ｎｍｏｌＳＣＨ２３３９０后第２－３ｈ觉醒时间明显减少（分别为Ｐ＜０．０１和Ｐ＜０．０５）,但注射３．４ｎｍｏｌ舒必利则无     

肺血管EDNO及其合酶在大鼠低氧性肺动脉高压形成中的作用

本研究观察了低氧对大鼠肺组织和血管内皮一氧化氮合酶（ＮＯＳ）活性及内皮衍生一氧化氮（ＥＤＮＯ）依赖性舒张反应的影响,以及ＮＯＳ抑制剂（Ｌ－ＮＡＭＥ）对常氧和低氧大鼠肺组织和血管内皮ＮＯＳ活性及颈、肺动脉血压（ＣＡＰｓ、ｍＰＡＰ）的作用。结果表明常氧大鼠肺泡内无肌性血管内皮未见ＮＯＳ活性,其肺血管床对ＥＤＮＯ依赖性舒血管物质ＢＫ没有反应,注射Ｌ－ＮＡＭＥ后大鼠ｍＰＡＰ略有降低,ＣＡＰｓ有所升高。低氧大鼠肺泡内无肌性血管内皮显示ＮＯＳ活性,对ＢＫ的ＥＤＮＯ依赖性舒张反应呈剂量依赖性增大,注射Ｌ－ＮＡＭＥ使低氧大鼠ｍＰＡＰ显著降低（Ｐ＜０．０１）,ＣＡＰｓ显著升高（Ｐ＜０．０５）。提示肺血管ＥＤＮＯ及其合酶在维持正常成年大鼠肺循环低压低阻中的生理作用值得进一步探讨;低氧引起肺血管内皮ｅｃＮＯＳ活性增加和ＥＤＮＯ生成增多可能起到限制肺动脉压过度升高的调制作用,也可能对肺血管内皮产生毒性作用,反而促进肺动脉高压的发生和发展。     

大鼠中脑腹侧被盖区在睡眠－觉醒调节中的作用

本实验在３１只清醒自由行动的雄性ＳＤ大鼠进行。结果如下：（１）双侧中脑腹侧被盖区（ＶＴＡ）微量注射３．３ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭后第２—３ｈ觉醒时间显著增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）;６．６ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭有类似效果;０．６６和１．３３ｎｍｏｌ溴隐亭无明显作用。（２）同样方法ＶＴＡ微量注射２ｎｍｏｌ和４ｎｍｏｌＳＣＨ２３３９０后第２—３ｈ觉醒时间明显减少（分别为Ｐ＜０．０１和Ｐ＜０．０５）,但注射３．４ｎｍｏｌ舒必利则无效。（３）红藻氨酸（０．３μｇ）双侧ＶＴＡ注后一周,大鼠白天觉醒减少,夜间无明显变化。以上结果表明溴隐亭微量注射到ＶＴＡ可能通过Ｄ１受体使多巴胺神经元活动增加而产生致觉醒作用;另外ＶＴＡ中ＤＡ神经元对于维持日间的觉醒可能有紧张性作用。     

长时间低氧对大鼠颈动脉体培养细胞的细胞内pH和膜电位的影响

本文的目的是研究长时间低氧对离体培养的大鼠颈动脉体球细胞（ｇｌｏｍｕｓｃｅｌｌ）的影响。对实验组Ｓｐｒａｇｕｅ－Ｄａｗｌｅｙ（ＳＤ）大鼠,首先将其置于模拟５０００ｍ高度低氧环境的低压舱中饲养７—１０ｄ,然后麻醉动物,取出颈动脉体,将其分离成单个细胞和细胞群体（ｃｌｕｓｔｅｒｓ）。这些细胞在低氧条件（１１％Ｏ２,５％ＣＯ２,８４％Ｎ２）下培养２—３ｄ。取自正常ＳＤ大鼠的颈动脉体细胞被分为两组,分别将其培养在常氧（２１％Ｏ２,５％ＣＯ２,７４％Ｎ２）或低氧环境中。球细胞的细胞内ｐＨ（ｐＨｉ）和膜电位（ＭＰ）分别用Ｈ＋选择性微电极和常规微电极同时测量。结果表明：长时间低氧降低球细胞的ｐＨｉ,增加ＭＰ,其变化程度远远大于急性低氧的影响,而且当将细胞置于常氧中测量时其值不恢复。     

体外培养大鼠星形细胞的缺糖缺氧性损伤及药物的保护

本实验用大鼠星形细胞体外培养模型,观察了细胞在不同条件下乳酸脱氨酶（ＬＤＨ）的漏出。发现当去掉葡萄糖后,细胞缺氧５和７ｈ后ＬＤＨ漏出明显增加,５ｂ为５９．７±２５．３Ｕ／ｍｇ蛋白（对照组２４．７±１６．３,Ｐ＜０．０５）,７ｈ为６８．３±８９Ｕ／ｍｇ蛋白（对照组３９．９±２１２,Ｐ＜０．０１）。用３－氧－甲基－［１－￣３Ｈ］－Ｄ－葡萄糖摄取法测量细胞体积,结果显示缺糖缺氧５ｈ后细胞明显肿胀,从对照组的４．１±１．２增加到８．１±３．２μｌ／ｍｇ蛋白（Ｐ＜０．０１）。丹参有效成分７６４－３在０．５至５０μｍｏｌ／Ｌ时能减少缺糖缺氧细胞ＬＤＨ漏出;在５０μｍｏｌ／Ｌ时能减小缺糖缺氧细胞的体积。谷氨酸受体拮抗剂ＤＮＱＸ（６,７－ｄｉｎｉｔｒｏｑｕｉｎｏｘａｌｉｎｅ－２,３ｄｉｏｎｅ）５０μｍｏｌ／Ｌ能减轻星形细胞肿胀和ＬＤＨ漏出。     

第二信使介导模拟低氧下丘脑CRF分泌

用模拟高原低氧的方法研究急性低氧条件下促肾上腺皮质激素释放因子（ｃｏｒｔｉｃｏｔｒｏｐｉｎ－ｒｅｌｅａｓｉｎｇｆａｃｔｏｒ,ＣＲＦ）分泌的变化及第二信使参与ＣＲＦ分泌的作用。低氧（海拔７ｋｍ）１ｈ后,正中隆起（ｍｅｄｉａｎｅｍｉｎｅｎｃｅ,ＭＥ）处ＣＲＦ含量明显下降（Ｐ＜０．０５）,下丘脑（ｈｙｐｏｔｈａｌａｍｕｓ,Ｈｙ）ＣＲＦ（不含ＭＥ）含量无明显变化,而Ｈｙ内ｃＡＭＰ含量明显增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）。脑室注射Ｆｏｒｓｋｌｉｎ、ＴＰＡ后低氧暴露（海拔５ｋｍ）１ｈ,ＭＥＣＲＦ含量下降（Ｐ＜０．０５;Ｐ＜０．０５）,ＨｙＣＲＦ无明显变化。脑室注射Ｆｏｒｓｋｌｉｎ后ＨｙｃＡＭＰ含量升高（Ｐ＜０．０５）。脑室注射Ｈ７和ＰＫＡ抑制剂,ＭＥＣＲＦ升高（Ｐ＜０．０５;Ｐ＜０．０１）,ＨｙＣＲＦ和ＨｙｃＡＭＰ均无显著变化。上述结果表明急性低氧应激中ＣＲＦ分泌显著增加,第二信使通路ＰＫＡ和ＰＫＣ通路均参与ＣＲＦ分泌     

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

正Dear Editor,In December 2019, a novel human coronavirus caused an epidemic of severe pneumonia(Coronavirus Disease 2019,COVID-19) in Wuhan, Hubei, China(Wu et al. 2020; Zhu et al. 2020). So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae

The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous. They lack raphide idioblasts. All are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules. The Petrosavieae are marked by the presence of septal glands and incomplete syncarpy. Tepals and stamens adhere to the ovary in the Hewardieae and the Petrosavieae but not in the Tricyrteae. Two vascular bundles occur in the stamens of the Hewartlieae and Tricyrtis latifolia. Ventral bundles in the upper part of the ovary of the Hewardieae are continuous with compound septal bundles and placental bundles in the lower part. Putative ventral bundles occur in the alternate position in the Tricyrteae and putative placental bundles in the opposite. position in the Petrosavieae. The dichtomously branched stigma in each carpel of the Tricyrteae is supplied by a bifurcated dorsal bundle.
