蓟属两种植物的染色体研究

本文对蓟属（Ｃｉｒｓｉｕｍ）的两个形态相似的近缘种大刺儿菜和小刺儿菜进行了染色体研究,其中后者为首次报道。观察结果表明：两个种的染色体数目均为２ｎ＝２ｘ＝３４：它们的核型是：大刺儿菜．２ｎ＝２ｘ＝３４＝２０ｍ＋１２ｓｍ＋２ｓｔ：小刺儿菜．２ｎ＝２ｘ＝３４＝２２ｍ＋１０ｋｍ（２ＳＡＴ）＋２ｓｔ。通过核型比较,认为它们是两个独立的种．而且后者比前者进化。     

光质对石刁柏愈伤组织培养中生长和过氧化物酶的影响

报道了在石刁柏愈伤组织培养中,采用５种不同光质处理,对愈伤组织生长及其过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性及同工酶的影响,实验表明,不同光质处理对生长有不同的效应,蓝光、红光下的培养物生长较快。不同光质对培养物质的ＰＯＤ活性亦有不同效应,ＰＯＤ同工酶谱亦有不同,蓝光、红光下的培养物,ＰＯＤ活性较高。ＰＯＤ活性变化与愈伤组织生长呈正相关。

Effects of microtubule-disruptive and membrane-stabilizing agents on low density lipoprotein metabolism by cultured human fibroblasts

The cellular mechanisms involved in the uptake and metabolism of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by cultured normal human fibroblasts have been investigated with the aid of drugs known to disrupt cytoplasmic microtubules or to inhibit membrane fusion.Two drugs which disrupt microtubules by differing mechanisms, colchicine and vinblastine, each reduced the high affinity surface binding of ¹²⁵I-labelled LDL by fibroblasts. Associated reductions of the endocytosis and degradation of the lipoprotein could be attributed almost entirely to this effect. In contrast, lumicolchicine, an analogue of colchicine without microtubule-disruptive activity, had little or no effect on ¹²⁵I-labelled LDL metabolism.Each of two groups of membrane-stabilizing agents, the phenothiazines and the tertiary amine local anaesthetics, directly inhibited both the internalization of ¹²⁵I-labelled LDL following high affinity binding to cell surface receptors and the catabolism of the lipoprotein subsequent to endocytosis, supporting previous morphological evidence for the importance of membrane fusion in these processes.     

Serological analysis and pathogenic potentials of Wangiella dermatitidis isolated from bats

Methods for the preparation of antigens from clinically isolated cultures of Aspergillus were standardized. Sera from 25 suspected cases of pulmonary aspergillosis were tested against antigens prepared by us, from 4 strains of A. fumigatus and one strain of A. flavus, using the Ouchterlony double diffusion and immunoelectrophoretic techniques.Of the 25 sera tested, 18 reacted positively with antigens of A. fumigatus, one with A. flavus and 2 with both these species. Antigens of two non-pathogenic Aspergilli included in the study failed to react with any of the sera. Our antigen preparations gave more numerous as well as sharper precipitin lines than the commercial Bencard antigens which were used for comparison. Moreover, mycelial antigens from 48 to 96 h old cultures revealed precipitin lines comparable to that of the routine, 4 week old culture filtrate antigens, thus suggesting that the incubation period for obtaining antigens could be cut down considerably.Memoir No. 323 from the Centre of Advanced Study in Botany.Deceased     

黄腐酸增强小麦抗旱能力的生理生化机制初探

叶面喷施黄腐酸可显著提高小麦幼苗的保水能力,表现为降低叶面蒸腾强度,增加气孔扩散阻力,提高幼苗的生物量,在干旱条件下尤为明显。喷施黄腐酸可使干旱条件下叶片内脯氨酸含量提高近一倍,并在水分充足时,也能使叶片脯氨酸含量增加78%。     

高粱泡的生长调控与结实状况

高粱泡(Rubus lambertionus Ser.)是一种有利用价值的野生果树资源。其优点为:(1)结果早,产量高,亩产量可达500kg以上;(2)适应性广,耐瘠薄,是开发利用低山丘陵的优良资源植物;(3)果实营养丰富,酸味纯正,尤其是所含红色素稳定性好,是加工果汁饮料的优质添加剂;(4)果实采收期在11月中旬到12月底,此时气温低,有利于浆果加工和贮藏,并可利用农闲季节的劳动力。上述特点表明,高粱泡有很好的开发利用前景。但本种在野生状态下蔓生性强,多刺,并具有枝顶生根的习性,因而树形紊乱而松散,栽培时搭架困难,植株占地面积大,而单位面积产量不易提高。为了便于操作管理和提高产量,减少栽培成本,增进经济效益,我们于1990～1991年进行了生长和株形调控试验,

Endotoxin-induced cytokine gene expression in vivo. III. IL-6 mRNA and serum protein expression and the in vivo hematologic effects of IL-6

Endotoxin (LPS) at sublethal doses injected i.v. into rats was found to induce IL-6 mRNA expression peaking at 1 to 2 h in whole organ RNA preparations of the spleen, liver, lung, bowel, and kidney. IL-6 serum protein levels also peaked at 2 h. TNF and IL-1, generally considered to be among the most rapidly released cytokines, also induced IL-6 expression. IL-6 in turn inhibited TNF and IL-1 expression, suggesting that IL-6 may be part of a negative feedback mechanism in the cytokine cascade. Dexamethasone down-regulated and Corynebacterium parvum up-regulated IL-6 expression, although the possibility cannot be excluded that these immunomodulating factors may in part have exerted their effects indirectly via the up- and down-regulation of TNF and IL-1. IL-6 injected i.v. at a pathophysiologically relevant dose caused a peripheral neutrophilia and mild myeloproliferative effect in the bone marrow.     

IL-4 down-regulates the expression of J11d on murine B cells.

T cell-derived IL-4 has many effects on murine B cells, including the up-regulation of class II antigens and the induction of isotype switching. The development of memory B cells and the decreased expression of J11d antigens on these cells are influenced by T cells. In this report, we determined whether the decreased expression of J11d can also be mediated by T cell-derived lymphokines and, in particular, IL-4. We found that IL-4 can down-regulate the expression of J11d on both large and small B cells, that this effect becomes significant after 48 hr of culture and occurs at doses of IL-4 that are similar to those required to up-regulate murine class II MHC antigens encoded by I-region alpha genes (IA). Anti-IL-4 antibody completely blocks this effect but IFN-gamma does not. Other lymphokines (IL-1, IL-2, IL-3, IL-5, IL-6) neither induce a decrease in J11d nor alter the ability of IL-4 to down-regulate J11d expression. The decrease in J11d expression on B cells is not due to a preferential survival of cells expressing lower levels of J11d, although IL-4 has a more pronounced effect on these B cells. Finally, the down-regulation of J11d and up-regulation of IA by IL-4 occurs on all inducible B cells.
