地里恙螨幼虫形态变异的研究

我们在研究甲乙两型地里恙螨子代的形态和两型地里恙螨的杂交实验中,发现这两者子代幼虫中有出现形态变异的现象。 1.后侧毛基的移位:从沿海某县采回的甲型地里恙螨(以下简称“C甲”)在实验室饲养繁殖的F_1标本中,出现一只左边后侧毛位置正常而右边后侧毛向上移位至感毛基的前侧(见图1)。左边A-P为27.6     

三乙醇胺基强碱性聚苯乙烯树脂共价固定胰酶的研究

用多孔强碱型三乙醇胺基聚苯乙烯阴离子交换树脂做为载体,用CNBr与载体上的多羟基作用共价偶联了胰酶。红外光谱表明:其共价偶联反应机理与用CNBr活化多糖类载体并接酶的机理相类似。最适偶联条件研究表明:CNBr用量增多,酶蛋白载量增加。但比活下降。偶联pH为10时,固定化酶有适宜的载量和较高的比活。由于胰酶水解蛋白反应释放出H~+质子,这些质子在载体内积累,使微环境内H~+质子浓度增加,进而使得固定化胰酶的pH—活性曲线在pH9～11范围内未出现下降。在变温和60℃恒温下对固定化酶的热稳定性测试表明:固相酶的热稳定性比天然酶的热稳定性有所提高。     

绿豆子叶衰老期间核酸代谢的变化

萌发绿豆的子叶自然衰老期间,核酸含量降低,RNA降低的幅度比DNA大。电泳分析结果表明,子叶衰老期间细胞核主带DNA明显降低;而迁移慢的卫星带DNA变化不大。在RNA各组分中,18S rRNA从衰老前期就开始降低;25S rRNA和4～5S小分子RNA到衰老后期才缓慢下降。DNase和RNase活性在子叶整个衰老期间都明显升高,是导致核酸含量下降的主要原因。~3H-核苷掺入试验表明,核酸的合成速率在子叶衰老前期有所上升,到衰老后期又降低。poly(A)~ -mRNA含量在子叶开始衰老时明显上升。     

轴浆转运在神经再生中的作用

夹伤坐骨神经阻断标记蛋白在轴浆中的快、慢转运。3天后转运再现。第14天的转运距离与对照相似,说明再生神经的转运动能基本恢复。用快、慢转运测出的14天平均再生速度分别为1.77±0.14与1.96±0.07mm/d,比对照神经的正常生长速度快6.3—7倍,提示再生需要更多的转运物质。进一步发现再生神经中某些标记蛋白(慢转运波W1)的转运速度为10.25±0.66mm/d,约比对照快1倍,因此这些标记蛋白可能包含适应再生需要而加速转运的结构和功能物质。     

陕南茶树栽培区域生态与地方品种分布

陕南秦巴山区是亚热带北缘地区。由于生态环境复杂,地区差异性大,茶树栽培与引种受到一定限制。大致以汉江谷地粮作区为界,南部大巴山北麓低山丘陵区为适栽区;北部秦岭南麓低山丘陵区则为次适栽区。地方茶树群体品种有7个,约由28个地方品种组成,呈斑、块状分布。     

Acetylcholine in the posterior hypothalamic nucleus is involved in the elevated blood pressure in the spontaneously hypertensive rat

Intravenous injection of physostigmine, 40 and 80 ug/kg, in unanesthetized normotensive rats increased systolic blood pressure (SBP) by 21 +/- 3 and 42 +/- 7 mmHg. This pressor response was 80% inhibited by intracerebroventricular (icv) injection of hemicholinium-3 (HC-3), 20 ug. Simultaneous icv injection of HC-3 and choline (365 ug) prevented the inhibition of the pressor response by HC-3. In spontaneously hypertensive rats, injection of HC-3 either icv (20 ug) or bilaterally into the posterior hypothalamic nuclei (1 ug) decreased SBP by about 40 mmHg. The effect of intrahypothalamic HC-3 was completely blocked by simultaneous injection of choline (24.3 ug) into the same site. The hypotensive effect of icv HC-3 was completely blocked by icv choline (243 ug) and was inhibited up to 60% by injections of choline (24.3 ug) into the posterior hypothalamic nuclei.     

Intervention trial with selenium for the prevention of lung cancer among tin miners in Yunnan,China

This pilot study evaluated the feasibility and effectiveness of conducting a double-blind clinical trial for the prevention of lung cancer with selenium (Se) in Yunnan Tin Corporation, the People's Republic of China, where the incidence rates of lung cancer are extraordinarily high among the miners. Forty healthy miners were randomized to either 300 μg of Se in high Se malt cakes or an identical placebo of malt cakes daily for one year. Subjects consumed their usual daily diet. The low Se concentrations in plasma (0.05±0.008 μg/mL) and hair (0.442±0.085 μg/g) reflected their low dietary Se intake in the control subjects. In Se-supplemented group, the Se status was increased by 178% for serum and 194.8% for hair. The serum GSHpx activity was increased by 155.7%, whereas the lipid peroxide level was reduced by 74.5% compared to the placebo. The results of UDS assay indicated that the lymphocyte DNA damage induced by ultraviolet irradiation and carcinogen 3,4-benzpyrene could be protected by Se supplementation. Se-supplementation did not affect the liver function test (SGPT), as well as the concentrations of hemoglobin, albumin, and cholesterol. Thus, daily intake of 300 μg Se in form of Se-malt as a chemopreventive measure is safe and effective to humans with low Se status.
