一种新病毒——兔出血症病毒的鉴定初报

从我国新发生的一种家兔急性败血性传染病死兔内脏抽提物中,观察到典型的病毒粒子,回归兔可引起典型发病,再从病死兔内脏回收到同样病毒,证明该病系病毒性传染病,暂定名为“兔病毒性出血症”,病原暂定为“兔出血症病毒”。经初步鉴定,认为本病毒可能是一种首次发现的新病毒,属双股RNA病毒。但从病毒大小和核酸节段看,又不同于呼肠病毒科。最终归属正在进一步研究。     

百日咳杆菌去内毒素及保护性抗原的纯化

内毒素(Endotoxin,简称ET)是百日咳全菌苗(Bordetellapertussis vaccine)产生副作用的主要毒素之一,且不易除去。现有的分离方法,如蔗糖密度梯度离心法,较繁琐,成本高。本文采用Sepha-cryl S-300凝胶层折法可以简便有效的去除大部分内毒素。初步毒素试验结果表明:已达到日本生物制品规格的要求。两种保护性抗原FHA和LPF-HA也得到进一步分离纯化,为今后研制高效的百日咳组分菌苗提供了实验条件。     

大豆下胚轴线粒体产生超氧物自由基的效率

大豆下胚轴线粒体在呼吸基质存在下,显著地增加了肾上腺素氧化速率,这种氧化速率能为外源SOD抑制,表明线粒体呼吸时产生分子氧的单电子还原成O_2(?)。亚线粒体颗粒产生O_2(?)的效率略高于线粒体。大豆下胚轴线粒体吸链内O_2(?)的产生为NADH所支持并与交替途径无关。表明分子氧单电子还原的部位可能是NADH-黄素蛋白和UbQ-Cyt.B。     

Effect of lysosomotropic amines on the secretory pathway and on the recycling of the asialoglycoprotein receptor in human hepatoma cells

We studied the intracellular transport of secretory and membrane proteins in the human hepatoma cell line HepG-2 infected with vesicular stomatitis virus. Cells were pulse-labeled in the presence of [35S]methionine and chased in the presence of the lysosomotropic agent primaquine. At a concentration of 0.3 mM primaquine effectively inhibited the secretion of albumin and, to a lesser extent, that of orosomucoid and transferrin. The drug also prevented the budding of virus particles at the cell surface. The intracellular transport to the Golgi complex of the membrane protein VSV-G was not affected by primaquine as it acquires resistance to endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase H at the same rate as in control cells. Addition of primaquine at various times after the initiation of the chase period indicates that the effect of primaquine occurs just before secretion. In confirmation of the biochemical data, immunocytochemical localization of albumin in cells treated with NH4Cl demonstrated that albumin accumulated in vesicles at the trans side of the Golgi complex. The effect of primaquine on secretion was also compared with its effect on receptor recycling. The dose-response characteristics of the effect of primaquine on receptor recycling are identical to those of the effects on protein secretion and virus budding. These results indicate that both processes involve the same transport mechanism, and/or that they occur via at least one identical intracellular compartment.     

Cross-reactive idiotype family observed in the phthalate-specific B cell repertoire of adult BALB/c mice: diversity of IgM compared with IgG monoclonal anti-phthalate antibodies

A highly conserved clonotype has been identified within the repertoire of B cells specific for the negatively charged hapten phthalate. The prototype of this phthalate-specific clonotype is a primary-response hybridoma (2E9) that produces a mu,kappa anti-phthalate antibody. The 2E9 monoclonal antibody was found to share idiotypic determinants with several other independently-derived mu,kappa and gamma 1,kappa anti-phthalate monoclonal antibodies and with a significant proportion of conventional anti-phthalate antibodies derived from all of the BALB/c mice immunized with phthalate-keyhole limpet hemocyanin. Competitive RIA analysis of the 2E9 idiotypic relatedness between primary and secondary response antibodies was consistent with the hypothesis that the primary response mu,kappa antibodies represent a conserved germ-line product, whereas the secondary response to gamma 1,kappa antibodies reflect somatic variants of the 2E9 clonotype. Further analysis with a site-specific anti-idiotype reagent suggests that the idiotypic differences between mu,kappa and gamma 1,kappa monoclonal antibodies occur at positions outside of the combining site. Fine specificity analysis of the monoclonal antibodies expressing the 2E9 cross-reactive idiotype (CRI) also supports this hypothesis. Seven to 35% of the anti-phthalate antibodies after a single immunization with phthalate-KLH and 1 to 10% of the antibodies after a second immunization express the 2E9 CRI. The 2E9 CRI was also found in several other strains of mice, and its expression was associated exclusively with anti-phthalate antibodies.     

The influence of dolichol, dolichol esters, and dolichyl phosphate on phospholipid polymorphism and fluidity in model membranes

The effect of dolichols, polyprenols, dolichol esterified with fatty acids, and dolichyl phosphate on the structure and fluidity of model membranes was studied using 31P NMR, small-angle x-ray scattering, differential scanning calorimetry, and freeze-fracture electron microscopy. These studies suggest that dolichol and dolichol derivatives destabilize unsaturated phosphatidylethanolamine containing bilayer structures and promote hexagonal II phase formation; high concentrations of dolichol induce lipid structures characterized by "isotropic" 31P NMR and particulate fracture faces; dolichol, contrary to cholesterol, has no effect on the thermotropic behavior of membranes consisting of phosphatidylcholine, while dolichyl-P incorporation abolishes the transition from the gel to liquid crystalline phase in 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine; both dolichol and dolichyl-P increase the fatty acid fluidity in phosphatidylethanolamine mixtures; the effect of dolichol on bilayer structure and fluidity is more pronounced with increasing number of isoprene residues; dolichol esters are only soluble to a limited extent in the bilayer and segregates into domains at low concentrations; the results are consistent with a localization of dolichyl-P in which the phosphate group is oriented to the water interphase. The induction of hexagonal II phase by dolichyl-P may elicit the transmembrane movement of glycosylated lipid intermediate.
