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。     

猕猴桃品种‘金桃’采收指标与果实软熟品质相关性研究

分别对河南省27个果园的中华猕猴桃（Actinidia chinensis Planch.）品种‘金桃’果实的5项采收生理指标及果实软熟时的8项品质性状进行测定,采用主成分分析法对果实软熟时的品质指标进行综合评分,并对果实的采收生理指标、果实软熟品质指标及综合分值间进行相关性分析。结果显示,采收时的生理指标（干物质、色度角、硬度和可溶性固形物）均与果实软熟品质综合分值间呈极显著相关,其中干物质相关系数最高,为0.437。干物质与体现果实软熟品质的关键指标（可溶性固形物、总糖和糖酸比）均呈极显著性相关。研究结果表明‘金桃’果实采收时,干物质含量是果实软熟时品质的重要评价指标,而可溶性固形物和色度角是评判采收期的辅助指标。     

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.

蜀龙头骨及脑颅的解剖

本文对蜥脚类蜀龙(Shunosaurus)的脑颅分别从其头骨特征、脑垂体、耳区、视觉系统、脑神经等诸方面进行了较为详细的解剖研究,结果表明 Shunosaurus 内颈动脉不分叉;基蝶骨突强烈收缩;外淋巴囊出现在中耳及 IX、X、XI 孔与颈静脉孔内分外合等现象十分独特.因此,Shunosaurus 应视为一种特化的原始蜥脚类.

Determination of 3-(5-cyclopropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-5-(1-methylethyl)imidazo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-one in serum by high-performance liquid chromatography

A high-performance liquid chromatographic assay with solid-phase extraction (SPE) for the rapid and sensitive quantitation of 3-(5-cyclopropyl-1,2,4-oxadiazol-3-yl)-5-(1-methylethyl)imidazo[1,5-a]quinoxalin-4(5H)-one (I, U-78875) in serum is described. The validation results indicated that the present method had excellent intra- and inter-assay precision (≤ 9.5%, mean ± S.D. = 3.9±3.0%, n = 25) and accuracy (≤ 10.0%, mean ± S.D. = 3.0 ± 2.9%, n = 25), as well as improved sensitivity (2 ng/ml, using a 100-μl injection). Each chromatographic run is only 10 min and the organic solvent for the extraction of I and internal standard (U-82217) from serum was only 300 μl. The application results obtained from the SPE method were in good agreement with the advanced automated sample preparation method.     

Plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis in creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds.)

We have established a high-frequency plant regeneration system via somatic embryogenesis from mature seeds of creeping bentgrass (Agrostis palustris Huds). The effects of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 3.6-dichloroo-anisic acid (dicamba) and 6-benzyladenine (BA) on callus formation and embryogenesis were evaluated. Callus produced on the Murashige and Skoog (MS) (1962) medium containing 2,4-D had low embryogenic potency. In the presence of 30 M dicamba, addition of 2.25 to 9 M BA significantly enhanced embryogenic callus formation over dicamba alone. Optimum frequency of somatic embryogenesis was achieved on MS basal medium containing 30 M dicamba and 2.25 M BA. Over 80% of somatic embryos germinated and formed plantlets on half-strength MS basal medium. These plantlets grew normally in the greenhouse.Abbreviations MS Murashige and Skoog medium - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - BA 6-benzyladenine - dicamba 3, 6-dichloro-o-anisic acid
