龙眼花蜜腺的发育解剖学研究

对龙眼(Dimocarpus longan Lour.)花蜜腺的形态结构、发育过程以及蜜腺的组织化学变化进行了较为系统的研究;对花蜜腺结构与泌蜜的关系、泌蜜方式、起源和系统演化等作了初步的探讨。结果表明：龙眼的花盘蜜腺位于花托上,呈环状环绕在雌雄蕊基部外围,花芽分化约30d,在雄蕊和花被之间的花托表面,蜜腺原基也开始形成,由花托表面2～3层细胞脱分化形成居间分生组织发育而来;龙眼花蜜腺由分泌表皮和产蜜组织构成,属结构蜜腺;分泌表皮角质层极薄,密布单细胞绒毛,未发现有气孔;产蜜组织由亚腺细胞、产蜜细胞、油细胞和维管束组成;在蜜腺发育过程中,产蜜细胞的液泡和多糖物质发生有规律的变化;蜜腺的原蜜汁来源于韧皮部,蜜汁经表皮角质层渗出。     

革苞菊花蜜腺的发育解剖学研究

革苞菊（Tugarinovia mongolica)花蜜腺为筒状,围绕花柱基部着生,属于花柱蜜腺类型。蜜腺中无维管束分布,只具分泌表皮和泌蜜组织。分泌表皮细胞排列整齐,表皮细胞之间分散分布着许多气孔,气孔的孔下室发达。蜜腺基部细胞与花柱维管束想念相邻。随着蜜腺的发育,泌蜜组织的细胞结构和储藏物质呈规律性变化。原蜜汁的来源主要是由花柱基部维管束提供多糖,经过泌蜜组织加工成蜜汁后,由分泌表皮上的气孔将蜜汁排出体外。同时讨论了革苞菊花蜜腺结构与进化的相关性问题。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.

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.
