放线菌素D和环已亚胺对伊贝母胚性愈伤组织中胚性细胞团和球形胚发生及大分子代谢动态的影响

伊贝母(F.pallidiflora Schrenk)胚性愈伤组织接种于NAA 1.0mg/L+6-BA2.0 mg/L的MS培养基上,在培养10天前可产生大量单细胞到多细胞胚性细胞团,培养10至15天,逐渐形成大量球形胚。利用这样一个实验体系,在培养0、1、2、3和4天后加入放线菌素D(AMD,20μg/ml)和环己亚胺(CHM,20μg/ml),继续培养至第6天,分析大分子代谢动态和观察胚性细胞团的形成情况;培养6和10天后加入同样浓度的AMD和CHM。继续培养至第15天,分析大分子代谢动态及观察球形胚形成情况。结果表明:(1)培养0、1、2、3和4天加入AMD的分别抑制胚性细胞团的100%、63%和45%,加入CHM的抑制100%、85%和75%,培养6和10天后加入CHM抑制球形胚的100%和75%;(2)DNA、RNA和蛋白质在胚性细胞团和球形胚形成时出现两个峰值,其中RNA变化剧烈,最早出现峰值。AMD和CHM分别抑制RNA和蛋白质的合成;(3)过氧化物酶同工酶带在胚性细胞团和球形胚形成过程中顺序表达,AMD和CHM分别在转录和转译水平上对其进行规律性抑制。根据以上结果,本文对伊贝母体细胞胚胎发生的机制进行了初步讨论。     

Four New C19-Diterpenoid Alkaloids from Aconitum nagarum Stapf

Four new aconitine-type C₁₉-diterpenoid alkaloids, were isolated from the roots of Aconitum nagarum Stapf which were named as nagarutines A–D ( 1–4 ), together with eleven known compounds ( 5–15 ). The structures of the compounds were identified by IR, HR-ESI-MS, 1D and 2D NMR spectra. All compounds were tested for the inhibitory effect on LPS induced NO production in RAW 264.7 macrophages, compound 7 showed moderate anti-inflammatory activity effect and Inhibition rate is about 44.50%.     

The rhodopsin system of the squid

Squid rhodopsin (λ_max 493 mµ)—like vertebrate rhodopsins—contains a retinene chromophore linked to a protein, opsin. Light transforms rhodopsin to lumi- and metarhodopsin. However, whereas vertebrate metarhodopsin at physiological temperatures decomposes into retinene and opsin, squid metarhodopsin is stable. Light also converts squid metarhodopsin to rhodopsin. Rhodopsin is therefore regenerated from metarhodopsin in the light. Irradiation of rhodopsin or metarhodopsin produces a steady state by promoting the reactions, See PDF for Equation Squid rhodopsin contains neo-b (11-cis) retinene; metarhodopsin all-trans retinene. The interconversion of rhodopsin and metarhodopsin involves only the stereoisomerization of their chromophores. Squid metarhodopsin is a pH indicator, red (λ_max 500 mµ) near neutrality, yellow (λ_max 380 mµ) in alkaline solution. The two forms—acid and alkaline metarhodopsin—are interconverted according to the equation, Alkaline metarhodopsin + H⁺ acid metarhodopsin, with pK 7.7. In both forms, retinene is attached to opsin at the same site as in rhodopsin. However, metarhodopsin decomposes more readily than rhodopsin into retinene and opsin. The opsins apparently fit the shape of the neo-b chromophore. When light isomerizes the chromophore to the all-trans configuration, squid opsin accepts the all-trans chromophore, while vertebrate opsins do not and hence release all-trans retinene. Light triggers vision by affecting directly the shape of the retinene chromophore. This changes its relationship with opsin, so initiating a train of chemical reactions.     

Frankia菌种保藏

对用4种方法保藏的Frankia菌,进行了培养物存活、形态及其固氮活性的检测.发现在无氮液体培养基中保藏6年的Frankia.菌丝断裂,孢囊不完整.同期经有氮液体保藏的Frankia菌孢囊较完整.冷冻干燥保藏3.5年和砂管保藏8年,孢囊和菌丝均较完整.上述方法保藏的菌种,经活化后均能生长,且具有典型的Frankia菌形态特征和固氮活性.4种方法比较,无氮液体保藏法的菌体细胞生长速度快,固氮活性强,有侵染结瘤能力.     

Biological monitoring of deltamethrin in sprayers by HPLC method.

Using HPLC, the authors had investigated the three metabolites of deltamethrin (DM) in the urine of spraymen and one suicide, namely: dibromovinyl-dimethylcyclopropane carboxylic acid (Br2A), 3-phenoxybenzyl-hydroxy-ethyl acetate (PHE) and 3-phenoxyl-benzoic acid (BA). Br2A was chosen as the biological monitoring parameter for DM exposed people, and the urine samples of one suicide and 11 farmers sprayed DM or DM plus methamidophos were examined for Br2A quantitatively which was detected in 8 of 11 sprayers and in the suicide case.
