癌症新型的诊疗靶点－APOBEC

APOBEC（“载脂蛋白质B mRNA编辑催化多肽”）是一类进化保守的胞苷脱氨酶家族。在人体内,已知含有保守的DNA胞嘧啶脱氨酶结构域的基因共有11种,包括AID、APOBEC1、APOBEC2、APOBEC3基因家族APOBEC3A、APOBEC3B、APOBEC3C、APOBEC3DE、APOBEC3F、APOBEC3G、APOBEC3H（分别称为A3A、A3B、A3C、A3D、A3F、A3G和A3H）和APOBEC4。APOBEC利用其脱氨酶活性通过与RNA和/或DNA结合,催化mRNA或使DNA中的胞嘧啶核苷酸转变为尿嘧啶,或者胞嘧啶核苷酸转变为胸腺嘧啶核苷酸,进而完成各自不同的功能。目前研究发现,AID及APOBEC3（A3s）的7种脱氨酶在人类的天然免疫和适应性免疫防御过程中发挥重要的作用,且在口腔癌,肺癌（腺癌和鳞状细胞癌）,结直肠癌和乳腺癌等的诊疗过程中具有重要的潜在应用价值。AID可以通过将胞嘧啶脱氨基成尿嘧啶,来启动SHM (体细胞超突变)和CSR (类别转换重组),进而在抗体多样性方面发挥作用。它的异常表达能够使B细胞淋巴瘤等恶性肿瘤的发病频率显著增加。而A3A、A3B通过胞嘧啶到尿嘧啶转换,以及自身表达量上调而在乳腺癌和肺癌诊疗中起作用。A3G通过APOBEC3G/miR 29/MMP2为了解结直肠癌肝转移和开发治疗晚期结肠癌的有效疗法开辟了新的途径。综上所述,本文将以AID,A3A,A3B,A3G为例子,对APOBEC在癌症诊断和治疗方面的应用进行综述,以期为进一步药物研究和临床应用等提供参考。     

Population structure and dynamics of Pinus massoniana Lamb. on mount Jinyun,Sichuan, China

Masson Pine (Pinus massoniana Lamb.) is a pioneer in forest succession in the subtropics of East Asia. However, the species persits, though with decreasing abundance, throughout the various successional phases. Agestructure, spatial pattern, density, population biomass, and their dynamics are described for a population in Sichuan, China, on the basis of a census of all individuals in the population while substituting space with time. In the course of succession, the population density increases and its rate of growth decreases until self-thinning starts; during the phase of self-thinning density decrease and continues to decrease even afterwards, but the rate of growth increase markedly after self-thinning has stopped. The development of population biomass (Bp) during the early succession from shrub-grassland to the early stages of mixed pine and broad-leaved forest can be described by a logistic equation. Later, Bp decrease rapidly. These changes are governed partly by inherent biological features of P. massoniana and partly by the invasion, establishment and development of shade-tolerant evergreen broad-leaved trees. Both self- and alien-thinning occur. Soil conditions affect the rates of these processes.     

竹红菌甲素敏化嘌呤和嘧啶碱的光氧化作用及其影响因素

本工作利用光吸收和高效液相色谱(HPLC)技术研究了甲素对DNA分子中四种碱基A、G、C和T光氧化的敏化作用,发现在反应体系的pH为9.0、甲素浓度为3×10~(-5)mol/L、光照40分钟时,G和T紫外吸收明显降低;HPLC分析发现甲素敏化的G光氧化体系比对照体系多出现一组分峰(滞留时间0.927分钟),该峰用475nm波长检测比260nm波长检测灵敏。根据反应机制推测是G环破裂产物。在反应条件固定时,甲素敏化G的光氧化作用受pH、光照时间及甲素浓度影响极大。单线态氧淬灭剂——叠氮钠浓度在40—110mmol/L可部分抑制甲素敏化G的光氧化作用,>110mmol/L时反应完全被阻断,提示甲素对G光氧化的敏化作用主要通过单线态氧(~1O_2)即Ⅱ型机制起作用。本文还讨论了G光氧化的可能途径。     

大布苏的细石器

本文记述了发现于吉林省西部大布苏泡子东岸二级阶地前缘原生黄土状地层中的486件石制品,其中包括8件石器及100多件细石叶。大布苏地点的细石器材料,类型简单,成型的石器少,分布范围有限,可能是一个临时石器加工点。其时代初步定为旧石器时代末期。     

Site-directed mutagenesis of an apolipoprotein E mutant, apo E5(Glu3----Lys) and its binding to low density lipoprotein receptors.

Apo E5(Glu3----Lys) is a naturally occurring apolipoprotein E (apo E) mutant found in patients with hyperlipoproteinemia and atherosclerosis. It has been shown to have a high affinity for low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors. In this study, mutant apo E5 was produced by Chinese hamster ovary cells by means of an in vitro site-directed mutagenesis technique, and its LDL receptor binding activity was assessed. The apo E5 obtained from gene expression bound more readily to the LDL receptor than did plasma apo E3. The concentrations required for 50% competitive binding of 125I-labeled LDL to the LDL receptors were 58.9 ng/ml for plasma apo E3 and 25.7 ng/ml for the expressed apo E5. The expressed apo E5 displayed 229% normal binding. This result is highly consistent with that obtained with plasma apo E5, which showed 217% normal binding. Although the experimental apo E isoproteins contained more sialic acid than plasma apo E, the extent of sialylation had no effect on the receptor binding of apo E.     

Increased shikonin production inLithospermum erythrorhizon suspension cultures within situ extraction and fungal cell treatment (elicitor)

Summary The effect ofin situ extraction and elicitor treatment on shikonin production was studied with the suspension cultures ofLithospermum erythrorhizon. Shikonin concentration of 60 mg/L was achieved by the use of both techniques which was 24 times higher than that of control culture, and 65 times higher in terms of shikonin productivity. The host-pathogen effect of elicitor treatment andin situ extraction for product removal were effective for shikonin production.     

中国连香树科的系统研究——Ⅰ.叶的宏观结构及叶柄维管束变化

本文研究了连香树科(Cercidiphyllaceae)叶的宏观结构,首次报道连香树齿腺体显微结构及晶体类型,并对叶柄维管束的变化作了进一步研究。通过与近缘科的比较,我们认为连香树科的系统演化处于孤立地位,和金缕梅科有较近的亲缘关系,与木兰科较为疏远。     

灯光诱虫在森林—鱼塘复合生态系统中的作用

昆虫是森林生态系统中的重要组成部分。由于森林中枯枝落叶较多,生境复杂,为昆虫提供了良好的繁殖和栖息场所;因而在森林中昆虫的种类多,数量大。大多数昆虫都以森林     

葡萄胚珠,胚乳及胚的发育

本文研究了“早玫瑰”和“新玫瑰”葡萄胚珠、胚乳和胚的发育。结果表明:花后3天胚珠即开始迅速生长,其生长的最终大小依品种成熟期的不同而各异。胚乳游离核在花后33天成为细胞状态。受精后16—21天,合子才开始第一次分裂。当胚乳充满珠心组织时,胚开始迅速发育并一直持续到果实成熟.胚的发育与果实的发育无明显竞争关系。     

阿胶冲剂与阿胶的化学成分对比分析研究

阿胶在我国有着悠久的历史,是常用滋补中药,具有许多特殊的功效,国内外享有盛誉。据《本草纲目》及《本草纲目拾遗》等介绍,阿胶在明代以前系用(沙牛)牛,水牛,驴皮或猪、马、驼皮等杂皮熬制而成。自清代始一律采用黑驴皮熬制。以往服用阿胶必须将阿胶先用水浸泡后,然后加热溶解后才能服用.为了克服这一缺点,山东化工学院研制了一种用开水冲服的阿胶新制剂——阿胶冲剂.为了弄清阿胶经物理方法处理后的化学组成成份与原阿谱的化学组成成分的不同变化。我们对其所含微量元素、氨基酸进行了对比分析.另外,本文首次报道了阿胶及阿胶冲剂的红外光谱分析结果.
