噬菌体展示技术及其在肿瘤研究中的应用

噬菌体表面展示技术是一项特异性多肽或蛋白的筛选技术,它将随机序列的多肽或蛋白片段与噬菌体衣壳蛋白融合表达而呈现于病毒表面,被展示的多肽能保持相对独立的空间结构,使其能够与配体作用而达到模仿性筛选特异性分子表位,从而提供了高通量高效率的筛选系统。近年来噬菌体展示技术已广泛应用于肿瘤抗原抗体库的建立、单克隆抗体制备、多肽筛选、疫苗研制、肿瘤相关抗原筛选和抗原表位研究、药物设计、癌症检测和诊断、基因治疗及细胞信号转导研究等。就近年来噬菌体展示技术在肿瘤相关研究中的运用作以综述。

兰科植物种群动态研究进展

兰科植物种群动态研究中,种群统计学分析能够很好地揭示植物个体在时空上的变化,是研究种群动态的核心.在自然生境中,许多附生兰科植物更倾向于离散或斑块状分布,可以通过集合种群研究分析斑块之间个体的基因流动,判断物种种群保护的规模.长期的种群动态研究能够获得兰科植物生活史和种群动态方面的可靠信息,以及一定环境条件下其时空波动及与种群功能之间的关系;短期的研究能够更好地理解具有结构性的独立植株与其所处的群落间的关系.本文根据种群生态学原理以及兰科植物的生态特点,从种群的密度及分布、种群统计学、种群的调节、集合种群和种群生存力分析（PVA）模型等方面阐述了国内外兰科植物种群动态研究进展.     

膜联蛋白A2对人肝癌细胞生物学行为的影响

为了研究膜联蛋白A2(ANXA2)基因表达水平与人肝癌细胞生物学行为之间的关系,采用已优化转染条件的磷酸钙法将针对ANXA2的siRNA重组质粒导入人肝癌细胞SMMC-7721并观察对靶基因表达及细胞生物学行为的影响。以半定量RT-PCR和Western blotting检测转染后不同时间(24 h、48 h、72 h和96 h)ANXA2 mRNA及蛋白表达变化;以MTT法、Hoechast33258染色及体外损伤修复实验等分析抑制ANXA2表达后对SMMC-7721细胞生物学行为的影响。结果显示:所设计的四条siRNA序列均不同程度抑制了ANXA2 的表达(p<0.05),且呈时间依赖性;细胞生长能力及运动能力被显著抑制(p<0.05),其抑制效应与ANXA2 表达敲低程度呈正相关。结论:ANXA2的高表达水平与肝癌细胞的凋亡、生长及运动能力密切相关,以RNAi方法抑制该基因的表达可以有效地抑制肝癌细胞的恶性生物学行为。上述结果为肝癌的实验性基因治疗研究提供了新的思路和对策。     

Lacking chloroplasts in guard cells of crumpled leaf attenuates stomatal opening: both guard cell chloroplasts and mesophyll contribute to guard cell ATP levels

Controversies regarding the function of guard cell chloroplasts and the contribution of mesophyll in stomatal movements have persisted for several decades. Here, by comparing the stomatal opening of guard cells with (crl‐ch) or without chloroplasts (crl‐no ch) in one epidermis of crl (crumpled leaf) mutant in Arabidopsis, we showed that stomatal apertures of crl‐no ch were approximately 65–70% those of crl‐ch and approximately 50–60% those of wild type. The weakened stomatal opening in crl‐no ch could be partially restored by imposing lower extracellular pH. Correspondingly, the external pH changes and K⁺ accumulations following fusicoccin (FC) treatment were greatly reduced in the guard cells of crl‐no ch compared with crl‐ch and wild type. Determination of the relative ATP levels in individual cells showed that crl‐no ch guard cells contained considerably lower levels of ATP than did crl‐ch and wild type after 2 h of white light illumination. In addition, guard cell ATP levels were lower in the epidermis than in leaves, which is consistent with the observed weaker stomatal opening response to white light in the epidermis than in leaves. These results provide evidence that both guard cell chloroplasts and mesophyll contribute to the ATP source for H⁺ extrusion by guard cells.     

春播小麦品质与生育进程和气候条件的关系

1998～2000年,用10个小麦品种在北京进行了3个年度的春播试验,以探讨生育进程和气候条件对品质的影响．结果表明,一些品质性状的品种间差异不显著,而年度间差异显著．播种．成熟天数和籽粒硬度呈极显著负相关．抽穗-成熟天数与籽粒湿面筋含量也呈极显著负相关．抽穗．成熟期间的昼夜温差与籽粒NIR蛋白含量呈显著负相关;总辐射量、昼夜温差与湿面筋含量呈极显著负相关,总日照与湿面筋含量呈极显著正相关;总辐射量、总日照、日均温、昼夜温差与沉降值呈显著负相关．在春播小麦优质栽培中,根据不同需要,既可使用生育期较短的品种,也可使用生育期较长的品种．种植生育期较长的品种时,可与间作、套种结合起来．

Pertussis toxin modulation of sodium channels in the central neurons of cyhalothrin-resistant and cyhalothrin-susceptible cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera

Pertussis toxin （FIX） inhibits the activation of the α-subunit of the inhibitory heterotrimeric G-proteins （Cαi/o） and modulates voltage-gated sodium channels, which may be one of the primary targets of pyrethroids. To investigate the potential mechanisms of agricultural pests resistance to pyrethroid insecticides, we examined the modulations by PTX on sodium channels in the central neurons of the 3rd-4th instar larvae of cyhalothrin-resistant （Cy-R） and cyhaiothrin-susceptible （Cy-S） Helicoverpa armigera by the whole-cell patch-clamp technique. The isolated neurons were cultured for 12-16 h in an improved L15 insect culture medium with or without PTX （400 ng/mL）. The results showed that both the Cy-R and Cy-S sodium channels exhibited fast kinetics and tetrodotoxin （TTX） sensitivity. The Cy-R sodium channels exhibited not only altered gating properties, including a 8.88-mV right shift in voltage-dependent activation （V0.5act） and a 6.54-mV right shift in voltage-dependent inactivation （V0.5inact）, but also a reduced peak in sodium channel density （Ⅰdensity） （55.2% of that in Cy-S neurons）. Cy-R sodium channels also showed low excitability, as evidenced by right shift of activation potential （Ⅴacti） by 5-10 mV and peak potential （Ⅴpcak） by 20 mV. FIX exerted significant effects on Cy-S sodium channels, reducing sodium channel density by 70.04%, right shifting V0.5act by 14.41 mV and V0.5inact by 9. 38 mV. It did not cause any significant changes of the parameters mentioned above in the Cy-R sodium channels. The activation time （Tpeak） from latency to peak at peak voltage and the fast inactivation time constant （τinact） in both Cy-S and Cy-R neurons were not affected. The results suggest that cotton bollworm resistant to pyrethroid insecticides involves not only mutations and allosteric alterations of voltage-gated sodium channels, but also might implicate perturbation of PTX-sensitive Gαi/o-COupled signaling Wansduction pathways.

试验采用中心组合设计(central composite face-centered design,CCF)和响应曲面法(response surface methodology,RSM)研究了温度(12—34℃)和盐度(0—26)两因素对体长为(4.36±0.105)cm,体重为(2.45±0.153)g的吉富品系尼罗罗非鱼(GIFT Nile tilapia,Oreochromis niloticus;简称吉富罗非鱼)幼鱼鳃Na+-K+-ATPase活力的联合效应。结果表明:(1)温度和盐度的一次效应和二次效应对Na+-K+-ATPase活力影响极显著(P<0.01),温度和盐度的互作效应不显著(P>0.05);(2)经响应曲面法分析,随着温度和盐度的增大,Na+-K+-ATPase活力呈先减小后增大的趋势;(3)建立了Na+-K+-ATPase活力与温度、盐度间关系的模型方程(R2=0.9829,Pred.R2=0.8550,P<0.01),并可用于预测吉富罗非鱼幼鱼鳃Na+-K+-ATPase的活力;(4)优化结果显示,温度为24.15℃,盐度为11.75时,Na+-K+-ATPase活力最小为0.62μmol无机磷.mg-1蛋白.h-1,满意度函数值高达0.961。Na+-K+-ATPase活力可以作为检测罗非鱼生长性能的指标,其活力较低时,一般反映了鱼体生存环境适宜,生长代谢旺盛,消耗于渗透调节的能量较少。
