Construction and packaging of pseudotype retrovirus containing human N—ras cDNA antisense sequence and its biological effects on human hepatoma cells

N-ras is one of the transforming genes in human hepatic cancer cells.It has been found that N-ras was overexpressed at the mRNA and protein level in hepatoma cells.In order to explore the biological roles of N-ras in human hepatic carcinogenesis and the potential application in control of cancer cell growth,a preudotype retrovirus containing antisense sequence of human N-ras was constructed and packaged.A recombinant retrovirus vector containing antisense or sense sequences of N-ras cDNA was constructed by pZIP-NeoSV(X)1.The pseudotype virus was packaged ang rescued by transfection and infection in PA317 and ψ 2 helper cells.It has been demonstrated that the pseudotype retrovirus containing antisense N-ras sequence did inhibit the growth of human PLC/PRF/5 hepatoma cells accompanied with inhibition of p21 expression,while the retrovirus containing sense sequence had none.The pseudotype virus had no effect on human diploid fibroblasts.     

Survival of genetically engineered Escherichia coli in natural soil and river water

Twelve derivatives of Escherichia coli strain HB101 which contained different sizes of plasmids ranging from 3.9 Kb to 48 Kb and encoding resistance to various antibiotics were used. When these organisms were introduced into natural river water, the population declined rapidly and by day 3, the majority (i.e. more than 99.9%) of them could no longer be detected on antibiotic-amended culture plates. If the river water was filter sterilized first, the added organisms maintained their population for up to 7 d without any significant decrease in numbers. Similar results were also observed in sterilized tap water or distilled water. This indicated that the disappearance of these organisms in the aquatic environment was caused mainly by biotic factor(s). The loss of the ability to grow in the presence of antibiotics by some of the E. coli was not observed unless they were allowed to grow in the antibiotic-free environment first. When the test organisms were added to natural silt loam, a large portion of the original population still remained viable after 16 d. There was no relationship between the percentage survival of E. coli in natural river water and the sizes of plasmid harboured. On the other hand, when these bacteria were added to natural soil, survival appeared to increase as plasmid size increased. and accepted 19 August 1989     

萝卜离体子叶衰老与膜脂过氧化的关系

萝卜离体子叶在光下或暗中衰老及激素调节衰老过程中,作为叶片衰老指标的叶绿素和蛋白质含量的降低,发生在MDA含量增高之前,更早于SOD活性的下降。表明由SOD活性降低所导致的膜脂过氧化的增强,并非衰老的原初反应,而是叶片衰老到一定程度的生理变化。因此,至少在萝卜离体子叶上,不能将其衰老的启动归因于受SOD控制的膜脂过氧化作用导致的膜累积性质变。     

紫云英根瘤菌109菌株吸氢的诱导表达——核苷、核苷酸与烟酸的促进效应

核苷酸和烟酸的添加,使紫云英根瘤菌109氢酶吸氢活性表达增加。cAMP(1 mmol/L),烟酸(70 mmol/L)的存在,缓解了葡萄糖酸钠或果糖引起的吸氢活性阻遏,cAMP的解阻遏效应在年轻的菌体(48 h)表现较为明显。但以MB为受体的破碎细胞吸氢活性则未见增加,烟酸的促进效应受到氯霉素(40μg/ml)的抑制。其他核苷或核苷酸,如腺嘌呤,尿嘧啶,ATP,ADP,AMP,UMP,UTP都能促进吸氢活性的表达。诱导氢酶前,细胞ATP库已处于低水平,并保持稳定,添加琥珀酸盐后,ATP库水平提高,吸氢活性表达受抑。     

vif-negative human immunodeficiency virus type 1 persistently replicates in primary macrophages, producing attenuated progeny virus.

The vif gene of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) is required for efficient infection of primary T lymphocytes. In this study, we investigated in detail the role of vif in productive infection of primary monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM). Viruses carrying missense or deletion mutations in vif were constructed on the background of the monocytotropic recombinant NLHXADA-GP. Using MDM from multiple donors, we found that vif mutants produced in complementing or partially complementing cell lines were approximately 10% as infectious as wild-type virus when assayed for incomplete, complete, and circularized viral DNA molecules by quantitative PCR amplification or for viral core antigen p24 production by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. We then determined the structure and infectivity of vif mutant HIV-1 by using MDM exclusively both for virus production and as targets for infection. Biosynthetic labeling and immunoprecipitation analysis of sucrose cushion-purified vif-negative HIV-1 made in MDM revealed that the virus had reduced p24 content compared with wild-type HIV-1. Cell-free MDM-derived vif mutant HIV-1 was infectious in macrophages as determined by the synthesis and maintenance of full-length viral DNA and by the produc- tion of particle-associated viral RNA, but its infectivity was approximately 2,500-fold lower than that of wild-type virus whose titer was determined in parallel by measurement of the viral DNA burden. MDM infected with MDM-derived vif-negative HIV-1 were able to transmit the virus to uninfected MDM by cocultivation, confirming the infectiousness of this virus. We conclude that mutations in vif significantly reduce but do not eliminate the capacity of HIV-1 to replicate and produce infectious progeny virus in primary human macrophages.

肾素－血管紧张素系统──应激激素反应系统

各种急性与慢性应激时,循环血中及脑、心血管、肾腺等组织中血管紧张素Ⅱ（ＡⅡ）显著增多;人剧烈运动后血浆ＡⅡ与皮质醇一样均剧烈增加,在慢性应激性高血压动物循环及组织中,ＡⅡ含量持续地增高。还发现高浓度ＡⅡ对肾上腺糖皮质激素的分泌有直接的刺激作用,而组织ＡⅡ增多又受肾上腺素能β受体的激发。根据近年来的系列工作,并结合文献,我们认为ＡⅡ是一种重要的应激激素;肾素－血管紧张素系统是一个应激激素反应系统;它与经典的应激激素反应系统,下丘脑－垂体－肾上腺皮质系统及交感－肾上腺髓质系统也存在着密切的关系。
