Induction of a Nerve Growth Factor-Sensitive Kinase that Phosphorylates the DNA-Binding Domain of the Orphan Nuclear Receptor NGFI-B

Abstract: Nerve growth factor (NGF) induces the synthesis and the phosphorylation of the orphan nuclear receptor NGFI-B in PC12 cells. Previous work has shown that phosphorylation, by protein kinase A, of a specific serine in the DNA-binding domain inhibits its binding to the NGFI-B response element. Also, cytoplasmic extracts from PC12 cells phosphorylate this serine, and phosphorylation is greater in extracts from cells treated with NGF. The present work describes the induction, identification, and partial purification of a kinase (termed NGFI-B kinase I) from PC12 cell extracts that catalyzes this phosphorylation. Phosphorylation of the DNA-binding domain with this purified preparation inhibits its binding to the NGFI-B response element. The kinase is rapidly activated by treatment of the cells with NGF, and the activation lasts for at least several hours. It also is activated by fibroblast growth factor and epidermal growth factor (EGF), but the activation by EGF is quite transient. The kinase requires Mg²⁺ but will use Mn²⁺. The molecular mass of the kinase is 95–100 kDa, and it is different from protein kinase A, Fos kinase, or pp90 ^rsk . Comparison with a partially purified preparation of cyclic AMP response element-binding protein kinase, however, indicates that the two are either very similar or identical.     

华北棉区第三代棉铃虫对棉花为害损失与经济阈值的研究

通过在华北棉区棉花蕾铃期阶段,连续５ａ的田间蕾铃脱落原因的观察,明确了在第三代棉铃虫的中常发生年份,影响蕾铃期蕾铃脱落的主要因素是棉株本身的自然脱落其脱落率占总脱落的９０％以上,而因第三代棉铃虫为害造成的脱落率在５％以上。根据田间棉铃虫Ｈｅｌｉｃｏｖｅｒｐａ ａｒｍｉｇｅｒａ（ｈｕｂｎｅｒ）３龄幼虫虫量与为害力的关系研究,结合多年第三代棉铃虫田间生命表,文中提出了三代棉铃虫的经济阈值为百株累计卵量     

Se和V_E与克山病

以克山病病区粮配成基础饲料,另在基础饲料中分别补充Ｓｅ或ＶＥ,或Ｓｅ＋ＶＥ喂养大鼠,在细胞及亚细胞水平上以Ｃａ代谢为主研究并比较了Ｓｅ和ＶＥ在克山病病因中的作用。测量了心肌细胞和心肌线粒体的Ｃａ代谢及有关指标、心肌线粒体能量转换功能及心肌组织自由基含量。结果表明,在低Ｓｅ病区粮中补充Ｓｅ或ＶＥ均能在一定程度上预防病区粮中致病因素对心肌细胞及线粒体的损伤;并且补充Ｓｅ或ＶＥ均能使心肌组织中自由基含量减少。提示Ｓｅ和ＶＥ是通过清除体内过量自由基预防细胞和线粒体的损伤的。但值得注意的是,实验中所用病区粮ＶＥ含量不低于甚至高于非病区对照粮,在低Ｓｅ情况下,所补ＶＥ的量需要相当大（如本实验中补充２００μｇ／ｇ）才能较明显地预防心肌细胞和心肌线粒体的损伤。通过对这些结果的分析,进一步肯定低Ｓｅ是克山病形成的重要因素之一。     

酵母亚细胞结构分离效率评估菌株的构建 *

背景: 真核细胞依赖其亚细胞结构高效地完成复杂的生化反应。尽管目前有一些亚细胞结构分离技术,但却缺乏评估这些分离技术的简单、有效方法。目的: 构建可以用来检测亚细胞结构分离效率的酿酒酵母菌株。方法: 通过传统的分子生物学与细胞生物学方法以酿酒酵母为背景构建了亚细胞结构分离效率评估菌株,并进行可行性检测。首先,将酵母各细胞器、自噬体及质膜的标记蛋白进行分组,用不同的蛋白标签分别标记每组蛋白。然后,以标记蛋白-GFP/RFP作为对照组通过免疫荧光法检测蛋白标签对标记蛋白的亚细胞定位是否有影响。最后,通过非连续性密度梯度离心验证该检测菌株能否用来检测亚细胞结构的分离效率。结果: 成功构建了酵母亚细胞结构分离效率评估菌株,该菌株标记了大多数酵母细胞亚细胞结构。挂标签的标记蛋白仍然定位在各自标记蛋白对应的亚细胞结构。非连续性密度梯度离心后,酵母各个亚细胞结构的标记蛋白均可以被检测到。结论: 该酵母亚细胞结构分离效率评估菌株是检测各亚细胞结构分离结果的方便工具,对今后酿酒酵母细胞生物学的研究有潜在的应用价值。     

刺激家兔中脑导水管周围灰质抑制束旁核伤害性放电的脊髓上机制

本工作比较了家兔脊髓背侧1/2进行横切前后刺激中脑中央灰质对束旁核伤害性放电的抑制率的改变。实验表明中央灰质既可通过公认的脊髓下行纤维抑制脊髓水平的痛传递,减弱束旁核单位的痛敏放电,也可通过某种脊髓上机制实现对束旁核的抑制。我们对这两种机制的相对重要性作了分析。用直11个束旁核痛敏单位所作的计算表明,在脊髓切割前,刺激中央灰质可使束旁核痛敏放电抑制67.5%,脊髓背侧1/2横切后,同样的中脑刺激只能使痛敏放电抑制42.9%。如以切割前的抑制率作为直100%,则切割可使抑制减弱36.5%,这一部分抑制应当是由被切断的脊髓下行纤维实现的,其余63.5%则可能主要通过脊髓上机制来实现。考虑到脊髓背半部横切不可能全部切断下行纤维,故实际上脊髓上机制的重要性不会有上述数值表示的那么大。     

甘蔗节间伸长过程赤霉素生物合成关键基因的表达及相关植物激素动态变化

以甘蔗(Saccharum officinarum)优良品种桂糖42号(GT42)为研究材料, 分别于未伸长期(9-10叶龄以前) (Ls1)、伸长初期(12-13叶龄) (Ls2)和伸长盛期(15-16叶龄) (Ls3)取甘蔗第2片真叶(自顶部起)对应的节间组织, 测定其赤霉素(GA)、生长素(IAA)、油菜素甾醇(BR)、细胞分裂素(CTK)、乙烯(ETH)和脱落酸(ABA)的含量, 并通过实时荧光定量PCR (qRT-PCR)分析赤霉素合成途径关键基因GA₂₀氧化酶基因(GA20-Oxidase1)、赤霉素受体基因(GID1)和DELLA蛋白编码基因(GAI)的差异表达。结果表明, 在甘蔗伸长期间, GA和IAA含量呈现上升趋势, CTK和ABA含量呈下降趋势, ETH含量先上升后下降, BR含量则变化不明显; GA20-Oxidase1和GID1的表达呈上升趋势, 而GAI的表达则呈下降趋势, 这与相关植物激素的变化基本一致。综上, 甘蔗节间伸长过程主要与GA和IAA相关, 其次为CTK和ABA, 而ETH受到IAA的调控影响节间伸长; 植物激素间通过相互作用调控GA20-Oxidase1、GID1和GAI的表达, 影响GA含量和GA的信号转导过程, 进而影响甘蔗节间的伸长。该研究揭示了甘蔗节间伸长过程中赤霉素生物合成途径和信号转导关键基因的差异表达及植物激素含量的动态变化规律。     

A Brief Contact with Early Embryonic Cells Induces the Differentiation of Embryonal Carcinoma Cells

An assay system was developed to detect a switch of mouse embryonal carcinoma (EC) cells to the pathway for normal cell differentiation after a brief contact with normal embryonic cells. The system consisted of (1) the mixed aggregation of AT805 EC cells with 8-cell stage mouse embryos, (2) the stationary culture of the mixed aggregates into blastocysts and (3) the cell culture of inner cell masses isolated from chimeric blastocysts containing EC cells at 2, 3 and 4 days after the initiaion of chimeric aggregation. The number of foci of EC cells which appeared in the cultures of inner cell masses was decreased with a length of contact of EC cells with normal embryos as the mixed aggregates. After 4 days' contact, only fibroblastic and epithelial cells appeared in most cultures of inner cell masses. Examination of isozyme markers of GPI revealed that such cell cultures consisting of nonmalignant cells contained cells of tumor origin. Thus, it was concluded that a brief exposure to the environment of normal embryos can regulate the tumor cells to differentiate into non-malignant cells. This conclusion was substantiated by comparing the pattern of protein spots of the tumor cells with that of non-malignant cells of the tumor origin by two dimensional gel electrophoresis.
