Background
Placentas of guinea pig-related rodents are appropriate animal models for human placentation because of their striking similarities to those of humans. To optimize the pool of potential models in this context, it is essential to identify the occurrence of characters in close relatives. 相似文献32.
Background
Alignment and comparison of related genome sequences is a powerful method to identify regions likely to contain functional elements. Such analyses are data intensive, requiring the inclusion of genomic multiple sequence alignments, sequence annotations, and scores describing regional attributes of columns in the alignment. Visualization and browsing of results can be difficult, and there are currently limited software options for performing this task. 相似文献33.
Yolk spheres present in mature invertebrate oocytes are composed of yolk proteins and proteolytic enzymes. In the fly Musca domestica, yolk proteins are degraded during embryogenesis by a cathepsin-like proteinase that is stored as a zymogen. An acid phosphatase is also active in the yolk spheres during Musca embryogenesis. In this paper we show that procathepsin and acid phosphatase are initially stored by a different pathway from the one followed by yolk protein precursors. Both enzymes are taken up by the oocytes and transitorily stored into small vesicles (lysosomes) surrounding the early yolk spheres. Fusion of both structures, the early yolk spheres and lysosomes, creates the mature yolk spheres. 相似文献

Multiunit activity was recorded in left and right sensorimotor cortex of rabbits in the state of tonic immobility. After the first immobilization session, the discharge frequency changed in 47% cells in the right hemisphere: 30% decreased their frequency, and 17% increased. In the left hemisphere, only 18% cells changed their discharge frequency (13% decreased and 5% increased). Reciprocal changes in discharge frequency could be observed in the neighboring neurons (recorded by the same electrode). Several days later, after the second immobilization session, the interhemispheric difference in the number of neurons, whose activity changed, almost disappeared (21% neurons in the right and 24% neurons in the left hemispheres). The relationship between the number of cortical neurons, which increased and decreased their activities in the state of "hypnosis" also became similar in the right and left hemispheres. A suggestion about the involvement of cortical neurons in organization of the state of "animal hypnosis" was made. 相似文献

An impaired differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells towards Th2 cells may contribute to the chronic tissue-destructive T-cell activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). The differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells into memory Th2 cells by IL-7 in comparison with that by IL-4 was studied in RA patients and in healthy controls. Naive CD4+ T cells from peripheral blood were differentiated by CD3/CD28 costimulation in the absence of or in the presence of IL-7 and/or IL-4. The production of IFN-gamma and IL-4 was measured by ELISA and by single-cell FACS analysis to indicate Th1 and Th2 cell activity. CD3/CD28 costimulation and IL-7 were early inducers of IL-4 production, but primarily stimulated IFN-gamma production. In contrast, in short-term cultures exogenously added IL-4 did not prime for IL-4 production but suppressed IL-7-induced IFN-gamma production. Upon long-term stimulation of naive CD4+ T cells, IFN-gamma production was differentially regulated by IL-7 and IL-4, but IL-4 production was increased by both IL-7 and IL-4. IL-7 and IL-4 additively induced polarization towards a Th2 phenotype. This susceptibility of naive CD4+ T cells to become Th2 cells upon culture with IL-7 and IL-4 was increased in RA patients compared with that in healthy controls. These findings demonstrate that, in RA patients, differentiation of naive CD4+ T cells towards a Th2 phenotype by CD3/CD28 costimulation, IL-7 and IL-4 is not impaired. The perpetuation of arthritogenic T-cell activity in RA therefore seems not to be the result of intrinsic defects of naive CD4+ T cells to develop towards suppressive memory Th2 cells. 相似文献

The strength of interaction between neurons in the sensorimotor cortex of rabbits was compared before and after the formation of a hidden excitatory focus (dominant) in this cortical area. In control experiments the interactions between the neurons was significantly stronger in cases when the influence of the neurons with higher spike amplitude on the neurons generating lower-amplitude pulses was assessed. This difference disappeared in the dominant focus. 相似文献

A defensive dominanta (stationary excitation focus) in the sensorimotor cortex of rabbits was formed by rhythmical electrodermal paw stimulation with the frequency of 0.5 Hz. After cessation of the stimulation, the state of hidden excitation was tested with acoustic stimuli, in response to which nonrhythmic activity of leg muscles increased or the leg rhythmically startled with the frequency close to that of the electrodermal stimulation. After conducting a routine hypnotizing procedure, the incidence of the rhythmic responses to testing stimulation increased, while the incidence of nonrhythmic responses decreased. 相似文献

Cell-to-cell and phloem-mediated transport of potato virus X. The role of virions 总被引:13,自引:1,他引:12 下载免费PDF全文
Movement-deficient potato virus X (PVX) mutants tagged with the green fluorescent protein were used to investigate the role of the coat protein (CP) and triple gene block (TGB) proteins in virus movement. Mutants lacking either a functional CP or TGB were restricted to single epidermal cells. Microinjection of dextran probes into cells infected with the mutants showed that an increase in the plasmodesmal size exclusion limit was dependent on one or more of the TGB proteins and was independent of CP. Fluorescently labeled CP that was injected into epidermal cells was confined to the injected cells, showing that the CP lacks an intrinsic transport function. In additional experiments, transgenic plants expressing the PVX CP were used as rootstocks and grafted with nontransformed scions. Inoculation of the PVX CP mutants to the transgenic rootstocks resulted in cell-to-cell and systemic movement within the transgenic tissue. Translocation of the CP mutants into sink leaves of the nontransgenic scions was also observed, but infection was restricted to cells close to major veins. These results indicate that the PVX CP is transported through the phloem, unloads into the vascular tissue, and subsequently is transported between cells during the course of infection. Evidence is presented that PVX uses a novel strategy for cell-to-cell movement involving the transport of filamentous virions through plasmodesmata. 相似文献
