Movement of Anopheles gambiae s.l. malaria vectors between villages in The Gambia

ovement of mosquitoes belonging to the Anopheles gambiae complex (mixed wild populations of An.arabiensis, An.gambiae and An.melas ) between three neighbouring rural villages in The Gambia was investigated by mark-release-recapture. A total of 12,872 mosquitoes were collected in bednets, marked with a magenta fluorescent powder and released over a 15-day period in one of the villages. A further 15,507 mosquitoes were collected in exit traps, marked with a yellow powder and released over the same period. Mosquitoes were captured daily in all three villages using pyrethrum spray catches, as well as bednet and exit trap catches. The catching period extended for 6 days after the last day of release.
Of the mosquitoes released, 372 (1.3%) were recaptured 2–21 days later. Of these recaptures, 272 were caught in the release village, and 98 were caught in other villages situated 1–1.4 km away. The 'movement index' between villages was calculated as 17.2% (12.2–22.4% confidence limits) for mosquitoes released after feeding and 20.1% (14.7–25.3%) for those released unfed.
These results suggest that movement of mosquitoes between neighbouring villages in The Gambia seriously affects the entomological evaluation of pyrethroid-impregnated bednet programmes in areas where treated and untreated villages are interspersed.     

线粒体DNA缺失与神经肌肉性疾病的研究

应用PCR技术对13例神经肌肉疾病患者的线粒体DNA缺失进行了研究。结果表明,其中二例肢带型肌营养不良症患者骨骼肌组织和一例帕金森氏病患者的血细胞线粒体DNA中存在至少526bp的缺失。提示线粒体突变在一些神经肌肉性疾病的发生中起一定的作用。 Abstract: Using PCR technique,we analysed the skeletal muscle and blood of 13 patients with neuromuscular disaeases.The results show that a mutant mitochondrial DNA with at least 526bp deletion exits in the skeletal muscles of 2 patients with Erb muscular dystrophy and in the blood of a patients with Parkinson’s disease.From our results,mitochondrial DNA mutations could be an important contributory factor to neuromuscular diseases.     

广西九万山藓类植物区系分析及其对划分热带,亚热带分界线的意义

九万山位于广西北部的中央(25°10’～25°25’N,108°27’E),界于泛北极植物区和古热带植物区的交汇处。其主要植被为亚热带常绿阔叶林。最高海拔为1693m,最低处仅170m。经对1850号标本的鉴定,共计有藓类植物35科、101属和189种。本文分析了九万山的藓类植物区系成分,将其划分为 10种类型。其中东亚成分最为丰富(39.33％),热带、亚热带成分次之(38.20％),而温带成分居第三位(18.54％)。本文选择了九万山临近的五个地区加以比较。其中,金佛山与九万山藓类植物的属和种的相似性系数分别为60.68％和36.87％,神农架为57.29％和33.13％。尖峰岭为48.83％和22.29％,西双版纳为57.29％和29.63％。而我国东部的武夷山则为69.86％和39.57％,其相似性系数在相比较的五个山区中为最高。九万山区有4个特有属并明显受喜马拉雅的影响。特别值得注意的是,在九万山区藓类区系中约有7％的种类是典型的热带成分。根据定量和定性的分析,笔者认为九万山的藓类区系表现出由热带向亚热带过渡的特性,其分界线可能位于九万山的南侧。     

The interactions of cis- and trans-diammineplatinum compounds with 5′-guanosine monophosphate and 5′-deoxyguanosine monophosphate. A proton nmr investigation

The interactions of cis- and trans-diammineplatinum compounds with 5′-GMP and 5′-dGMP in dilute aqueous solution at neutral pH were investigated by ¹H nmr. In addition to the 1:2 Pt nucleotide complexes cis- and trans-Pt(NH₃)₂(GMP)₂, it was possible to study the formation of the 1:1 Pt-nucleotide complexes with either one coordinated water or chloride ion. At 5°C GMP reacts with a stoichiometric amount of cis-diaquodiammine-platinum to yield cis-Pt(NH₃)₂(GMP) (H₂O) as a sole reaction product. From the present results it is concluded that such a complex may play an important role as the initial reaction product between antitumor compounds like cis-Pt(NH₃)₂Cl₂ and guanine in DNA in living organisms. The coupling constant ³J(H(1′)-H(2′)) of the H(1′) sugar proton in cis-Pt(NH₃)₂(GMP)₂ is temperature dependent, indicating a conformational change in the sugar moiety.     

Kinetic studies on the cupric ion oxidation of sheep hemoglobin

The oxidation of sheep hemoglobin, in both the oxygenated and deoxygenated forms, by cuprous ions have been studied by spectrophotometric and stopped-flow techniques. Mixing of both the oxy and deoxy forms with excess Cu²⁺ leads to the rapid oxidation of the iron atoms of all four of the hem groups of the tetrameric protein, followed by the slow formation of hemichromes (low spin Fe^III forms of hemoglobin). Stopped-flow studies show that the oxidations follow simple monophasic kinetics with second-order rate constants of 65 and 310 M^?1 sec^?1 for the oxy and deoxy forms, respectively. Variable temperature studies yield Arrhenius activation energies of 43 for the oxy form and 113 kJ mole^?1 for the deoxy form. For each form of the protein the activation energy is very similar to the activation enthalpy. While the deoxy form is characterized by an activation energy and enthalpy that is more than twice the corresponding value in the oxy form. The activation entropies show highly significant differences being ?128 e.u. and 136 e.u. at 25°C for the oxy and deoxy forms, respectively.     

Modification of an essential arginine of carbamate kinase

Carbamate kinase from Streptococcus faecalis is inactivated by butanedione in borate buffer, which implies the presence of an essential arginine at the active site of the enzyme. The inactivation reaction is first order in [butanedione] and a replot of the inactivation rate data infers that one arginine is modified. The enzyme is protected against inactivation by ADP, ATP, the metal-nucleotides and carbamyl phosphate but not by carbamate. Amino acid analyses reveal that one of three arginines is modified by butanedione in the absence of protecting agents, and the binding of ADP to the enzyme prevents modification. Thus, analysis of the data suggest that (i) substrate binding to arginine and (ii) protein conformational changes at the active site are responsible for protection of an essential arginine against modification by butanedione.     

Antigen-specific helper activity in serum of mice primed with sheep red cells. I. Definition of the test system and comparison with other systems

An adoptive transfer system is described to measure serum helper activity in the primary antibody response to sheep red blood cells (SRBC). Mice injected with a high dose of cyclophosphamide and reconstituted with rabbit anti-thymocyte serum-treated spleen cells were used as recipients. Serum obtained 9 hr after ip injection of normal mice with 2 × 10⁸ SRBC (S(SRBC)) injected i.v. in the recipients caused a significant enhancement of the antibody response to 2 × 10⁷ SRBC. The serum helper activity was not generated in thymectomized animals and could be absorbed from S(SRBC) by normal and formalinized SRBC. The SRBC-specific serum helper activity (SSHA) is heat labile (30 min 56 °C) and shows allogeneic restriction. Another test system described in literature for measuring T-cell help in vivo was less suited to measure SSHA in the response to 2 × 10⁷ SRBC. A system using normal mice injected with 10⁵ SRBC for determining specific immune response-enhancing factor (SIREF), demonstrated SIREF activity in S(SRBC). It did, however, not measure SSHA, as absorption of S(SRBC) with formalinized SRBC did not abolish the activity in that system.
