NaCl胁迫对甘薯叶片叶绿体超微结构及一些酶活性的影响

随ＮａＣｌ胁迫浓度的提高,甘薯叶片叶绿体数目逐渐减少,类囊体膜片层松散、扭曲、破裂及逐渐解体膜片层检叶绿素含量下降。与此同时,Ｈ２Ｏ２、ＭＤＡ含量增加,ＡＳＰ、ＳＯＤ活性表现先上升后下降的趋势。耐盐品种在ＮａＣｌ胁迫下能维持较强的Ｈ２Ｏ２清除能力和较低的ＭＤＡ水平。     

盐度和CO2倍增环境下碱蓬幼苗呼吸酶活性的变化

研究了生长在正常大气ＣＯ２和ＣＯ２倍增环境中的盐生植物碱蓬（Ｓｕａｅｄａｓａｌｓａ）幼苗呼吸酶活性对ＫＣｌ和ＮａＣｌ的反应．结果表明,在ＣＯ２倍增（７００μｌ·Ｌ－１）和正常大气ＣＯ２（３５０μｌ·Ｌ－１）下,３００ｍｍｏｌ·Ｌ－１ＫＣｌ和ＮａＣｌ均能抑制琥珀酸脱氢酶（ＳＤＨ）和苹果酸脱氢酶（ＭＤＨ）活性,而异柠檬酸脱氢酶（ＩＤＨ）活性为ＮａＣｌ抑制、ＫＣｌ促进;ＮａＣｌ和ＫＣｌ明显抑制细胞色素氧化酶（ＣＯ）和光呼吸中乙醇酸氧化酶（ＧＯ）、羟基丙酮酸还原酶（ＨＰＲ）活性;并指出在ＫＣｌ胁迫下,ＣＯ２使三羧酸循环（ＴＣＡＣ）的运行变慢,ＮａＣｌ胁迫下使其加快,ＴＣＡＣ运行限速步骤与ＭＤＨ无关,ＣＯ为盐对呼吸代谢影响的重要位点．另外,Ｋ＋、Ｎａ＋对蛋白表达的影响有差异,ＣＯ２可使盐胁迫下的碱蓬幼苗蛋白表达降低．     

钙对水稻幼苗抗冷性的影响

ＣａＣｌ２浸种提高水稻幼苗叶片中结合态钙、内源抗氧化剂（ＧＳＨ、ＡｓＡ）含量和膜保护酶（ＣＡＴ、ＳＯＤ和ＰＯＤ）活性,也增加可溶性蛋白质中煮沸稳定蛋白质（ｂｏｉｌｉｎｇ－ｓｔａｂｌｅｐｒｏｔｅｉｎ）的含量。冷胁迫期间,ＣａＣｌ２并能减少因冷胁迫引起的ＧＳＨ、ＡｓＡ含量,ＣＡＴ、ＳＯＤ和ＰＯＤ活性以及煮沸稳定蛋白质下降的程度。在恢复期间,经ＣａＣｌ２处理的幼苗其ＧＳＨ、ＡＳＡ、ＣＡＴ、ＳＯＤ和ＰＯＤ以及煮沸稳定蛋白质水平均有回升。     

水稻幼苗冷锻炼过程中钙的效应

冷锻炼处理提高了水稻（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ．）幼苗叶片中抗氧化剂（还原型谷胱甘肽,ＧＳＨ;抗坏血酸,ＡｓＡ）含量和膜保护酶（超氧化物歧化酶,ＳＯＤ）的活性,同时也提高了可溶性蛋白质中热稳定蛋白的含量。ＣａＣｌ２ 浸种处理对上述冷锻炼的作用有加强的效果,且明显地提高了过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）的活性。有无ＣａＣｌ２ 处理的冷锻炼处理均减轻冷胁迫引起的ＧＳＨ 及ＡｓＡ 含量、ＳＯＤ 活性及热稳定蛋白质含量的下降程度,有利于幼苗在恢复过程中ＧＳＨ、ＡｓＡ、ＣＡＴ、ＳＯＤ、ＰＯＤ及热稳定蛋白质水平迅速回升。结合ＣａＣｌ２ 处理的冷锻炼苗在冷胁迫恢复生长时增长迅速,且苗健壮浓绿,说明ＣａＣｌ２浸种对冷锻炼处理提高水稻幼苗的抗冷力有明显的促进作用,这与ＣａＣｌ２ 浸种结合冷锻炼能更有效的提高细胞膜保护能力有关     

NaCl胁迫下离体小鼠叶片内抗坏血酸与几种生理生化指标变化的…

随着ＮａＣｌ胁迫时间的延长和胁迫强度的增加，离体小麦叶片内抗坏血酸含量逐渐减少。活性氧清除剂处理可缓解由ＮａＣｌ胁迫所引起的抗坏血酸含量下降。ＮａＣｌ胁迫下，叶片内Ｏ＾－２和ＭＤＡ含量增加，叶绿素和类胡萝卜素含量，叶绿体的Ｈｉｌｌ反应活力，叶生光合速率，叶片和线粒体呼吸速率的下降，而外源抗坏血酸对这些过程均有缓解作用。     

渗透胁迫下水稻幼苗中叶绿素降解的活性氧损伤作用

水稻（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ．）幼苗在渗透胁迫下,随着胁迫强度的增加及时间的延长,Ｃｈｌ降解加剧,活性氧Ｏ－·２ 、Ｈ２Ｏ２ 及脂质过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量明显增加,抗氧化剂抗坏血酸（ＡｓＡ）还原型谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）及胡萝卜素（ＣＡＲ）含量显著降低,叶绿素蛋白复合体（Ｃｈｌ－Ｐｒｏ）结合度松弛． Ｃｈｌ含量的降低和Ｏ－·２ 、Ｈ２Ｏ２ 及ＭＤＡ 含量呈显著的负相关,与ＡｓＡ、ＧＳＨ及ＣＡＲ含量的下降呈良好的正相关性．ＡｓＡ、α－生育酚（ＶｉｔＥ）及甘露醇预处理可使胁迫诱导的ＭＤＡ 增多及Ｃｈｌ降解延缓,而Ｆｅ２＋ 、Ｈ２Ｏ２ 及Ｆｅｎｔｏｎ 反应则刺激ＭＤＡ 增加． Ｆｅｎｔｏｎ 反应可加速Ｃｈｌ降解． 渗透胁迫下水稻幼苗Ｃｈｌ的降解可能主要是由Ｏ－·２ 和Ｈ２Ｏ２ 的代谢产物·ＯＨ氧化损伤之故     

NaCl胁迫对螺旋藻生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响

在０１％～５．０％ＮａＣｌ浓度范围的培养基中培养极大螺旋藻（Ｓｐｉｒｕｌｉｎａｍａｘｉｍａ）,发现ＮａＣｌ浓度高于２．０％时螺旋藻生长受到明显抑制。培养７天后测定超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）活性和丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量。结果表明：在盐胁迫下,ＳＯＤ酶活性升高;抗坏血酸过氧化物酶和过氧化氢酶活性在低盐胁迫下活性升高,高盐胁迫下抗坏血酸过氧化物酶活性迅速降低,过氧化物酶则完全失活;ＭＤＡ含量先随盐胁迫程度增加而降低,后随盐胁迫的进一步增强恢复至对照水平。     

NaCl对水稻谷氨酸合酶和谷氨酸脱氢酶的胁迫作用

在ＮａＣｌ的胁迫下,水稻幼苗根和叶的谷氨酸合酶和谷氨酸脱氢酶的活性随着营养液中的ＮａＣｌ浓度的升高而降低;游离ＮＨ４＾＋在叶中积累,在根中未见明显变化。与根相比,叶对ＮａＣｌ的胁迫作用更为敏感。叶的ＮＡＤＨ－ＧＯＧＡＴ和ＮＡＤＨ－ＧＤＨ活性在ＮａＣｌ胁迫降低的程度明显大于根。无论是否有ＮａＣｌ存在,根的ＮＡＤＨ－ＧＤＨ活性明显高于叶。ＧＳ／ＧＤＨ比值分析提示,对对照下,根中的ＮＨ４＾存在,根的ＮＡ     

亚硒酸钠对四氯化碳损伤草鱼肝原代细胞与肝组织的保护作用

不同浓度四氯化碳（ＣＣｌ４）对草鱼肝原代细胞的损伤实验中,ＣＣｌ４浓度为１０μｌ／ｍｌ可引起细胞血清中丙氨酸氨基转移酶（ＡＬＴ）、天门冬氨酸氨基转移酶（ＡＳＴ）、乳酸脱氢酶（ＬＤＨ）逸出量与细胞破损率显著增高,培养液中添加亚硒酸钠（Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３）０．２μｇ／ｍｌ,则可降低ＡＬＴ、ＡＳＴ、ＬＤＨ的逸出量,减轻细胞破损程度。Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３保护实验中,Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ２＋ＣＣｌ４组预先腹腔注射（ｉｐ）０．１ｍｇ／ｋｇ．ｂｗ连续三日,末次ｉｐＣＣｌ４混合液１ｍｌ／ｋｇ．ｂｗ,２４ｈ内肝组织超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）相对活性比ＣＣｌ４组提高达９１．５％,第七日仍提高达５４．５％,与对照组的水平基本接近;血清中丙氨酸氨基转氨酶（ＡＬＴ）水平逐渐降低。本实验还观察到Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３可引起肝脂质过氧化物显著降低,肝微粒体蛋白含量与细胞色素Ｐ—４５０活性升高;组织切片观察显示肝组织损伤程度减轻,７２ｈ后细胞核增多。表明Ｎａ２ＳｅＯ３可提高草鱼肝清除自由基能力,增强肝脏解毒功能。

The early development of the tail and the transformation of the shape of the nucleus of the spermatid of the domestic fowl,Gallus gallus

Summary The differentiation of the spermatid, especially in reference to the formation of the flagellum, and transformation of the shape of the nucleus was investigated in the domestic fowl.In the early stage of the spermatid, a prominent Golgi apparatus appears around the centrioles. The Golgi vesicles then surround the axial-filament complex which develops from the distal centriole. These vesicles fuse to form continuous membrane at the earliest stage of flagellar formation, and in the succeeding stage Golgi lamellae are attached to the plasma membrane of the developing flagellum. From these observations, it is assumed that Golgi apparatus may be a source of the membrane system of the flagellum.The microtubules distributed around the nucleus form the circular manchette. The anterior region of the nucleus with the manchette is cylindrical in shape and the posterior region without it remains irregular in shape. When the circular manchette has been completed, the whole nucleus acquires a slender cylindrical shape. The circular manchette then changes into the longitudinal manchette. The nuclei of spermatids without a longitudinal manchette are abnormal in shape. In view of these observations it is assumed that the nuclear shaping of the spermatid may be accomplished by circular manchette and the maintenance of shape of the elongated nucleus by longitudinal manchette.The authors wish to thank Mr. Takayuki Mori for his helpful suggestions and technical advices     

Characteristics of the membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius

Summary The membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius are investigated using thin section electron microscopy and freeze-fracture replicas. The plasma membrane is covered by a surface coat and is connected to the outer alveolar membrane by short, sometimes branched, bridges. The inner alveolar membrane is coated on both sides. The epiplasm lies in intimate contact with the cytoplasmic surface of this membrane, and there is a corresponding deposit on the other surface. This deposit is regularly striated.The epiplasmic layer and the alveoli are interrupted at sites of cytotic activity,e.g., the attachment sites of trichocysts, the cytoproct, and the parasomal sacs. The striated deposit ends where the epiplasm ends, indicating a direct relationship between these two epimembranous layers.There is a deposit along the sides of the first part of the tip of the trichocysts, and in this region the trichocyst membrane is free of intramembranous particles.The membrane of the parasomal sacs has a coat on both surfaces. That on the extraplasmic surface is similar to the surface coat of the plasma membrane. The origin of the cytoplasmic coat is unknown. The cytotic activity of these sacs is indicated by their highly irregular profiles.     

Observations on the permeability of the choriocapillaris of the eye

Summary The choriocapillaris is a fenestrated capillary bed located posterior to the retinal pigment epithelium. It serves as the main source of supply to the photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium, and other cells of the outer retina. The permeability of these capillaries to intravenously injected ferritin (MW — approx. 480,000; mol. diam. 11 nm) was examined in the mouse, rabbit, and guinea pig, each of which is characterized by a different type of retinal vascularization. In all three species, the bulk of the ferritin remained in the capillary lumina, where it appeared to be blocked at the level of the diaphragmed fenestrae. Some ferritin was present in endothelial cell vacuoles. The results confirm previous work on the rat choriocapillaris and indicate that the barrier function of the choriocapillary endothelium is present even among species in which the retinal circulation differs significantly.Supported by NIH grant EY03418
