结合树突状细胞(DC)生物学特性, 探讨抗P-选择素lectin-EGF功能域单抗(PsL-EGFmAb)对体外培养人DC成熟和功能干预调节的作用. 通过SCF, GM-CSF, TGF-β₁, Flt-3L及TNF-α体外培养体系, 从脐血CD34⁺造血干细胞中诱导扩增获得DC, 并于细胞成熟过程中用PsL-EGFmAb及辅以IL-10作为对照进行干预. 分别观察和检测DC形态学及细胞活力, 细胞表面分子HLA-DR, CD1a, CD11c, CD54, CD83, CD80, CD86, CD209(DC-SIGN)及CD62P, E, L(P-、E-、L-选择素)表达, 细胞内活性氧(ROS)水平, 及IL-12p35, p40 mRNA与NF-κBP50, P65 mRNA表达, 培养上清液中IL-12p70分泌含量, 以及DC体外对T淋巴细胞刺激能力, 以此分析PsL-EGFmAb 对DC成熟与功能的干预状况. 结果显示, 未成熟DC高表达属模式识别受体的C型凝集素DC-SIGN外, 且胞内蓄积适量ROS, 具备了细胞吞噬能力. 成熟DC除仍高表达DC-SIGN, 伴随细胞内NF-κB基因明显表达, 其表面黏附共刺激分子CD11c, CD83, CD80, CD86表达上调, 且细胞因子IL-12合成分泌增加, 并具明显的体外刺激T淋巴细胞增殖能力, 符合于抗原提呈细胞特征. 此外, 未成熟和成熟DC基本不表达P-, E-选择素, 而分别高表达和低表达L-选择素. 进一步发现, PsL-EGFmAb较对照IL-10对DC表面DC-SIGN表达有抑制作用; 也能抑制细胞内NF-κB基因表达, 并相应抑制或下调DC黏附共刺激分子CD11c, CD83, CD80, CD86及HLA-DR表达, 抑制IL-12基因转录及其合成分泌, 以及抑制DC体外刺激T细胞增殖的能力. 上述结果表明, PsL-EGFmAb对DC分化成熟及功能具有抑制作用, 提示此作用与其抑制作为DC模式识别受体及功能分子DC-SIGN有关, 并可能是通过影响NF-κB信号途径起作用.

研究重组创伤弧菌溶细胞素（rVvhA）对人单核细胞系（THP-1）NF-κB信号通路的影响。应用CCK-8法检测rVvhA对THP-1细胞增殖的抑制作用;倒置显微镜和激光共聚焦显微镜观察rVvhA作用后细胞的形态学变化和细胞内NF-κB p65的核转移情况;应用流式细胞仪和Westernblot检测rVvhA作用后细胞浆内和细胞核内NF-κB p65的表达情况;ELISA检测rVvhA作用于细胞后TNF-α、IL-6表达含量的变化。试验结果显示：rVvhA能够呈时间–剂量依赖性地抑制THP-1细胞的生长,且镜下可见明显的细胞形态学变化。激光共聚焦显示0.4 HU/mL rVvhA作用6 h后,THP-1细胞内NF-κB p65的核转移现象最明显;流式细胞仪结果显示0.6 HU/mL rVvhA作用2 h后,细胞内总的NF-κB p65表达量达到高峰;Western blot检测显示0.6 HU/mL rVvhA作用4 h时细胞核内NF-κBp65蛋白含量最高;ELISA显示TNF-α的表达在rVvhA作用的适当范围内呈时间–剂量依赖性变化;IL-6在0.6 HU/mL rVvhA作用时表达量最高,随后随着浓度的增加反而下降;NF-κB抑制剂能使IL-6表达量下调。实验证明rVvhA作用于THP-1细胞后能激活NF-κB信号通路,上调TNF-α、IL-6的表达,而NF-κB抑制剂能够下调IL-6的表达。     

NF-κBp50参与IL-4在THP-1细胞中诱导DC-SIGN的表达

树突状细胞表面特异的胞间黏附分子3捕获非整合素(DC-specific intercellular adhesion molecule-3-grabbing nonintegrin,DC-SIGN)是树突状细胞表面特异的蛋白,在抗原呈递过程中起关键作用.这种特异性的表达和DC-SIGN的调节机制有关.到目前为止,DC-SIGN表达调控的机制还不是很清楚.IL-4是诱导DC-SIGN表达的最重要的细胞因子之一,而NF-κB是调控细胞信号转导的一个重要调控因子,两者都和DC-SIGN的表达调节相关.研究了IL-4和NF-κB对DC-SIGN启动子活性、对DC-SIGN表达的影响以及IL-4和NF-κB之间相互作用的关系.发现:DC-SIGN启动子中NF-κB位点缺失可以使DC-SIGN启动子活性下降大约50%,NF-κBp50可以促进DC-SIGN在THP-1细胞的表达,IL-在THP-1细胞诱导DC-SIGN表达的同时,也促进了NF-κBp50的表达.这些结果显示,在THP-1细胞中NF-κBp50参与IL-4诱导的DC-SIGN表达.

在人乳腺癌细胞增殖中LXRα、NF-κB p65和cyclinD1的差异表达

LXRα可以抑制包括乳腺癌在内的多种肿瘤细胞的增殖,而这种抑制作用的具体机制尚不明了．因此本文探讨了LXRα、NF-κB p65和cyclinD1三者在人乳腺癌细胞增殖中的差异表达．首先采用免疫组化法检测了乳腺癌及癌旁组织中LXRα,NF-κB p65和 cyclinD1 的表达,结果表明,3种蛋白主要表达于细胞核,且NF-κB p65和cyclinD1在癌组织中的表达显著高于癌旁组织,而LXRα则在癌组织中表达显著降低．用MTT和Western blot检测TO901317对乳腺癌细胞增殖及3种蛋白表达的影响,结果显示,随着TO901317浓度的增加与时间的延长,其对细胞增殖的抑制作用逐渐增强,与此同时能上调LXRα的表达,并下调NF-κB p65和cyclinD1的表达．进一步通过RNA干扰技术下调LXRα的表达, 以及应用NF-κB抑制剂PDTC观察TO901317上述作用的改变,发现LXRα siRNA显著降低TO901317对3种蛋白表达的影响和对细胞增殖的抑制作用．而PDTC则加强TO901317的上述作用效果,除了几乎不影响LXRα的表达外．综上所述,LXRα/NF-κB p65/cyclinD1在乳腺癌细胞增殖中具有重要作用,有助于进一步明确LXRα为新的乳腺癌调控靶点,为今后乳腺癌的分子靶向治疗提供新的思路．

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.     

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.

Interconnection of parameters of regulation system of lipid peroxidation and of morphophysiological parameters of mouse liver

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.     

The effects of glutamine of the maintenance of embryogenic cultures of Cryptomeria japonica

Summary Embryogenic tissues of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) were induced on a modified Campbell and Durzan (CD) medium containing 1 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 600 mg l⁻¹ glutamine, and subcultured in the medium of the same composition for over 1 yr. This resulted in a mixed culture of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells. When embryogenic cells were isolated and cultured independently, their capacity to form embryogenic aggregates was lost. Thus, the non-embryogenic cells present within a mixed culture system were essential to the formation of embryogenic aggregates. When embryogenic tissues were isolated and cultured independently on a high glutamine-containing (2400 mg l⁻¹) medium, dry weights and endogenous levels of glutamine increased, and the tissue could generate a large number of embryogenic aggregates. Amino acid analysis of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells from the maintenance culture indicated a higher level of glutamine was present in the latter. The high endogenous level of glutamine in the non-embryogenic portion of mixed cell masses may be the supplier of glutamine for maintaining the embryogenic property of the tissues.     

Specificity of action of piperidylcholine derivatives as substrates of cholinesterases of various origin

The review deals with study of enzymologic properties of a novel highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate, N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium iodomethylate (“piperidylcholine”), and its 30 derivatives that were tested as effectors of cholinesterases of mammals and various species of Pacific squids. It was proven for the first time that responsible for specificity of action was structure of cyclic ammonium grouping of the alcohol part of molecule of the ester substrate. Analysis of specificity is performed based on enzymatic hydrolysis parameters—activity of catalytic center of cholinesterases and bimolecular constant of the reaction rate that are determined at optimal and low substrate concentrations. Among the specially synthesized group of thioester compounds there is revealed one more highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate—N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium.
