本文根据中日黑潮合作调查研究,１９８９年４月航次在东海北部黑潮及其邻近海域采集的浮游生物样品,分析黑潮锋面涡旋区饵料浮游动物的分布特点及其与海洋环境的关系。首次报道了在东海黑潮锋面涡的冷中心区发现冷水性桡足类,从而丰富了调查区浮游动物区系的冷水种成分,并为锋面涡涌升水的研究和黑潮潜流的研究提供了生物学证据。     

丁酸钠和pH值对离体蚕豆花药中小孢子有丝分裂的影响

含单核中后期至后期花粉的蚕豆离体花药,经过2mM丁酸钠24小时预处理后,再漂浮培养于pH5.8或7.0的液体培养基。以不经预处理的作为对照。结果如下: 1.培养后9天内,丁酸钠预处理和培养基pH值并不明显影响花粉退化百分率。2.培养初期,pH7.0显著促进小孢子不等分裂。3.丁酸钠预处理抑制培养初期的小孢子有丝分裂,而后又显著增加小孢子均等分裂百分率。4.丁酸钠预处理导致小孢子有丝分裂类型的趋向改变。本文还对丁酸钠导致有丝分裂类型趋向改变的可能原因,进行了讨论。     

家兔晶状体纤维的超微结构:纤维细胞的间隙连接

本文报道晶状体纤维细胞间间隙连接的形态结构。我们利用冰冻断裂技术,在不同部位的球-和-凹连结的头部以及在纤维细胞和纤维细胞之间都观察到间隙连接的存在。通过极其丰富的上述连接,可实现细胞间代谢物和离子的传递。作者认为:对正常晶状体纤维细胞之间的间隙连接的深入了解,将会为晶状体发病机制的研究提供新的线索。     

猫尾核头部前区对三叉神经尾端脊束核的抑制作用及其方式

在清醒麻痹状态下的55只猫上,观察了电刺激尾核头部前区(Cd)对三叉神经尾端脊束核(cST)中了齿槽神经(AI)伤害性刺激所诱发的放电的影响。刺激 Cd 可以抑制大多数 cST 神经元的伤害性反应,抑制持续约100—500ms。抑制时程可为静脉注射戊巴比妥钠和安定而延长,注射印防己毒素可使其缩短。马钱子素使抑制时程稍有延长。这些结果提示,Cd 对 cST神经元的抑制作用是通过突触前抑制的方式实现的。     

人工补充寄主卵对松林内卵蜂种群消长的影响

在不同生境的松林中,人工补充寄主卵都能提高寄生效果。但林地生境不同,寄生率有明显差异。在松阔混交林中补充寄主,其寄生率比对照提高5.5—16.2倍。植被稀疏的纯松林效果较差,补充的寄生率比对照提高3.0倍。 卵蜂种群消长随季节温度而变化,全年以5月中旬至6月下旬和9月中旬至10月中旬为两个寄生高峰。卵蜂种群与松毛虫种群的消长存在较明显的相依关系,卵蜂种群随着松毛虫种群的消长而消长。施药对卵蜂种群有较大影响,施药区比对照区的寄生率约降低一倍。在混交林中填充寄主卵,能促进卵蜂种群世代延续。在逐步改善林地生境的基础上,利用人工补充寄主,可以代替人工繁蜂放蜂。     

Hydrolysis of bile acid conjugates by selected fungi

Summary Fungi which have been previously shown to hydrolyse glycocholic acid, with liberation of the free bile acid, have now been shown to be similarly capable of hydrolysing glycodeoxycholic acid. Sodium taurocholate, however, is much less susceptible and its hydrolysis has been demonstrated with only one of the selected fungi, Penicillium chrysogenum, growing in a medium containing the conjugate as the sole sulphur source. It is concluded that the nature of the amino acid moiety is important in determining the ease of hydrolysis of bile acid conjugates by whole cells of the fungi under test.     

Monolayer properties of chloroplast lipids

The properties of seven monogalactosyldiacylglycerols and six digalactosyldiacylglycerols, isolated from photosynthetic membranes and possessing different levels of fatty acid unsaturation, have been studied by the monolayer technique and compared with those of the fully saturated compounds. In addition, the monolayer properties of sulphoquinovosyldiacylglycerols and phosphatidylglycerols from higher plant chloroplasts, and several hexadecenoic acids have been measured.Monogalactosyldiacylglycerols containing saturated fatty acids form a condensed monolayer similar to that of saturated phosphatidylcholines. The naturally occurring monogalactosyldiacylglycerols, of which the double bond index ranged from 0.6 to 3.9, possessed comparable force-area curves suggesting that headgroup interactions play a more important role in packing behaviour than in phosphatidylcholines. Although digalactosyldiacylglycerols containing fully saturated fatty acids form a more expanded monolayer than the corresponding monogalactosyldiacylglycerols, the degree of expansion of the monolayer due to the presence of unsaturated fatty acids in the naturally occurring digalactosyldiacylglycerols is much less than in monogalactosyldiacylglycerols. Monogalactosyldiacylglycerols and digalactosyldiacylglycerols from a single species have very similar monolayer properties, and the presence of sulphoquinovosyldiacylglycerols and phosphatidylglycerols in the proportions in which they occur in higher plant chloroplasts does not have any condensing effect on a monolayer of galactolipids     

现代化经济建设与生态科学——试论当代生态学工作者的任务

宇宙空间是无限的,但适于人类生活和生物生存的生物圈则是有限的,它是个松散结构的大系统,其中包括许多类型的生物集团与无机环境结合而成的功能单元,即生态系统。在长期进化过程中,通过物质循环与能量交换,生物圈与生态系统之间建立了相互协调与补偿关系,并使生物圈及生态系统都具有一定限度的调节功能。人类对自然界的依存关系,以及自然界所形成的生态平衡是长期演化而形成的,人类亦参与和适应了此平衡过程。维持这种平衡的基础是有规律的物质循环和能量交換。此种质能流动则是通过

Receptor kinetics differ for endothelin-1 and endothelin-2 binding to Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts

The equilibrium binding, kinetics of ligand-receptor interactions, and biological activity of endothelin-1 and -2 have been studied in Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts. Scatchard analyses of saturation binding data for ET-1 and -2, performed at 4 degrees C to prevent internalization of the occupied receptor, revealed similar affinity constants and numbers of binding sites for endothelin-1 and -2. Experiments designed to determine ligand-induced effects on 45Ca efflux demonstrated no qualitative or quantitative differences between the two endothelin isoforms. In contrast, kinetic studies resulted in different rates of dissociation for the two isoforms and different extents of dissociation. Specifically, only 40% of the bound [125I]endothelin-1 was dissociated at 4 h following the addition of excess unlabeled ligand, whereas 85-90% of the bound [125I]endothelin-2 was dissociated under the same conditions. Endothelin-1 and -2 also differed in the percent of specific cell-associated ligand bound after a 2 h incubation at 37 degrees C following an initial equilibration at 4 degrees C. The differences in dissociation rates and association or internalization rates at 37 degrees C are the first data that differentiate between the two isoforms. It is suggested that isoform-specific differences in the rate of dissociation from cell surface endothelin receptors influence the level of cell-associated endothelin and may be important in determining physiologic responses in vivo.
