豚鼠肠系膜下神经节细胞电活动与结肠运动的关系

在豚鼠肠系膜下神经节(IMG)及其支配的结肠段联合标本上,对IMG细胞内电位与肠段纵肌或环肌舒缩活动进行了同步记录。实验结果表明:(1)肠段预置张力为零时,约50％IMG细胞有自发的快兴奋性突触后电位(EPSP)活动,切断结肠神经或以筒箭毒(50μmol/L)灌流IMG后消失;(2)筒箭毒或低钙高镁溶液阻断神经节传递时,环肌节律性收缩幅度增大,节律变慢,但对纵肌节律性收缩无明显影响,(3)串刺激节前神经,在IMG细胞引起一串快EPSP或动作电位并常跟随迟慢的EPSP,同时,纵肌在0.1-0.2s潜伏期后出现迅速的、时程基本与动作电位串一致的舒张波,后者在筒箭毒灌流IMG后消失,而环肌运动可见舒张、舒张波延长或收缩波增大。结果提示:IMG不仅中继经典的胆碱能传出功能,还参与以胆碱能传递为中介的肠-肠反射,该反射活动的传出效应主要在于抑制环肌收缩。     

人子宫内膜纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子及其抑制因子的分布与调控

人子宫内膜中存在组织型(tPA)及尿激酶型(uPA)两类纤蛋白溶酶元激活因子,其含量在增殖期高于分泌期。本文应用免疫组织化学定位证实uPA及tPA两类抗原存在于子宫内膜的腺体细胞和间质细胞中。应用SDS-PAGE分高蛋白质,继而应用纤蛋白-琼脂糖铺盖技术测得离体培养下间质细胞仅释放tPA,腺体细胞仅释放uPA,但两种细胞均分泌PA的抑制因子(PAI)。培液中加入孕酮,明显抑制PA和刺激PAI生成。雌二醇作用与孕酮相反。某些肽类激素hCG、PRL、GnRH及cAMP作用基本与雌二醇相同。但福司克林(FK)则刺激间质、腺体两种细胞产生tPA及少量uPA,抑制PAI生成。本工作表明人子宫内膜中存在PA及PAI作用相反的酶,受激素调控,其生理意义尚待进一步探讨。     

下丘脑室旁核加压素能神经元参与电针刺激对实验性内脏痛的抑制

本实验采用内脏痛的实验模型,探讨室旁核中的加压素在针刺抑制内脏痛中的作用。实验结果如下:(1)大鼠在在射酒石酸锑钾(0.1％,10ml/kg,i.p.)后,出现可定量的扭体反应,能作为观察内脏痛的客观指标。(2)电针对内脏痛有抑制效应,即具有镇痛作用。(3)电刺激室旁核,能加强电针对内脏痛的抑制效应,损毁室旁核,则此抑制效应基本消失。(4)脑室注射加压素抗血清(14μl)或加压素拮抗剂[d(CH_2)_5Tyr(Me)-AVP,500ng/5μl]都能明显减弱电针的抑制效应。(5)腹腔注射加压素拮抗剂(10μg/kg),不能翻转电针的抑制效应。上述实验结果表明,下丘脑室旁核的加压素能神经元参与了电针刺激对实验性内脏痛的抑制。     

四氯化碳中毒对大鼠离体再生肝细胞钾离子外漏的影响

本工作用三种剂量四氯化碳(CCl_4,10,15和20mmol/L)损伤正常大鼠离体肝细胞,分别在5,10,15和20min测定细胞内K~+和GPT漏出量。实验观察到细胞内K~+和GPT漏出量与CCl_4染毒的剂量和时间有明显关系,而且K~+漏出量较GPT更能灵敏地反映细胞的损伤程度;用中等剂量CCl_4(15mmol/L)损伤离体再生肝细胞20min后,细胞内K~+漏出的变化百分数明显低于正常肝细胞。这些结果表明,大鼠离体再生肝细胞具有较强的抗CCl_4损伤作用,其机制可能与再生肝细胞膜稳定性较强有关。

The Rex proteins of human T-cell leukemia virus type II differ by serine phosphorylation.

The Rex proteins of human T-cell leukemia virus types I and II (HTLV-I and HTLV-II) induce cytoplasmic expression of unspliced gag-pol mRNA and singly spliced env mRNA and are critical for virus replication. Two rex gene products, p27rex and p21rex of HTLV-I and p26rex and p24rex of HTLV-II, have been detected in HTLV-infected cells; however, the structural and biological relationship of the proteins has not been clearly elucidated. Endoproteinase digestion and phosphoamino acid analysis of HTLV-II Rex indicated that p24rex has the same amino acid backbone as p26rex and that the larger apparent molecular size of p26rex is attributable to serine phosphorylation.     

Developmental regulation for collagen II gene expression in transgenic mice

In order to evaluate the involvement of the type II collagen regulatory sequences in development, we have injected a construct containing a toxin gene under the control of the rat type II collagen promoter and enhancer. The construct, pDAS10-DTA, contained the diphtheria toxin A chain gene under the control of type II collagen sequences which had been used previously to target cartilagenous tissues in transgenics. Inspection of developing fetuses at various stages of gestation revealed a high number of aborted implants as well as abnormally developing fetuses. These abnormal fetuses were of small size, had shortened and underdeveloped limbs, cleft palates, and generally resembled a phenotype similar to chondrodystrophic mice. Histological comparisons of normal and abnormal fetuses indicated a reduced amount of extracellular matrix surrounding chondrocytes, and a disorganized appearance of the tissue. These results suggest that the expression of the toxin has occurred in chondrocytes and altered the survival and development of the transgenic mice. These results also indicate that the promoter and enhancer sequences contained in the transgene controlled the developmental expression of the type II collagen gene expression.     

山西永济白草坪组具刺疑源类的发现及其地质意义

该文着重报道了山西永济白草坪组(一般认为系中元古界上部相当于蓟县系的层位),以具刺疑源类为主的微化石群,计有4类6属15种,其中包括1新属,4新种,1新组合,1亲近种,2未定种,新属是具细网状纹饰的复杂具刺疑源类Shuiyousphaeridium Yan gen.nov.,4新种是Shuiyousphaeridium membraniferum Yan sp.nov.,Dictyosphaera incrassate Yan sp.nov.,Foliomorpha stipuliferaYan sp.nov.,Manicosiphoninema shuiyouense Yan sp.nov.。本微化石群以球形疑源类为主体,以具刺疑源类的大量发育为特征,并伴生有推测是绿藻和褐藻的化石,其组合面貌与蓟县上前寒武系各组皆有明显区别,具有更高的进化程度,从生物地层标志推测白草坪组所在的汝阳群应归入震旦系。白草坪组具刺疑源类可能是横裂甲藻的原始分子,它在地层对比和藻类进化方面皆具有重要意义。     

第四纪沟鞭藻类在海南岛砂质白云岩中的发现

该文所研究的样品采自海南省儋县排浦乡,为一套珊瑚岸礁海蚀坪潮间带的更新世砂质白云岩。作者对其中两块样品进行了分析研究,并获得沟鞭藻类囊孢4属10种,其中包括1新种2未定种。文中除了对这些属种进行了较为详细的描述以外,还讨论了它们所反映的古环境,认为含有这些化石的砂质白云岩是暖温带浅海环境下的产物。
