Haloxylon ammodendron is one of the main shrubs that were used in desertification control project in China. Large area (2700 km2) of H. ammodendron plantation, especially more than 10 years plantation, has degraded outside Minqin oasis, northwest China. It is hard for H. ammodendron plantation to utilize ground water deeper than 20 m and to use precipitation with only mean annual 116.2 mm and uneven distribution in growing season. Thus, soil water might be the main water source of H. ammodendron plantation. Moreover, following H. ammodendron grows up, more soil water will be needed. In this study, it is hypothesized that H. ammodendron plantation would utilize deeper soil water as its age increased. Water use characteristics of different ages of H. ammodendron plantation (2 years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years and 30 years) were examined by stable oxygen isotope technology outside Minqin oasis in July 2009. The δ18O values of water in H. ammodendron xylem, six different depths of soil (20 cm, 30 cm, 50 cm, 100 cm, 150 cm and 200 cm), rain and ground water (replaced by well water) were compared to determine major water source of H. ammodendron plantation. Meanwhile, the density, height, length and width of individuals were measured, and soil water contents were examined at the six depths in these plantation. The results showed that in 5 years H. ammodendron plantation, soil water content in 50 cm was significantly lower than moving sand dune and other ages, and soil water content in 100–200 cm was lower than moving sand dune and 2 years H. ammodendron plantation. The main depth that H. ammodendron used soil water increased as the age increased; 2 years H. ammodendron mainly used 50–200 cm soil water; 5 years H. ammodendron used 100–200 cm soil water and started to use ground water; 10 years H. ammodendron used 150–200 cm soil water and ground water, plant density of H. ammodendron declined and soil water content recovered gradually; 20 years and 30 years H. ammodendron mainly used ground water. Therefore, excessive consumption to soil water of high plant density might be one of the reasons for the degradation of H. ammodendron plantation. The critical age of H. ammodendron plantation is 5 years outside Minqin oasis because it consumed excessive soil water. If the density of 5 years H. ammodendron plantation was not decreased by selective cutting at present, it would degrade as the stand age increased later. It is suggested that initial density of new H. ammodendron plantation outside Minqin oasis must be reduced to slow down its consumption of soil water in future, and then the stability of H. ammodendron plantation could be sustained for a longer time. 相似文献

Lumped parameter models have been employed for decades to simulate important hemodynamic couplings between a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) and the native circulation. However, these studies seldom consider the pathological descending limb of the Frank-Starling response of the overloaded ventricle. This study introduces a dilated heart failure model featuring a unimodal end systolic pressure-volume relationship (ESPVR) to address this critical shortcoming. The resulting hemodynamic response to mechanical circulatory support are illustrated through numerical simulations of a rotodynamic, continuous flow ventricular assist device (cfVAD) coupled to systemic and pulmonary circulations with baroreflex control. The model further incorporated septal interaction to capture the influence of left ventricular (LV) unloading on right ventricular function. Four heart failure conditions were simulated (LV and bi-ventricular failure with/without pulmonary hypertension) in addition to normal baseline. Several metrics of LV function, including cardiac output and stroke work, exhibited a unimodal response whereby initial unloading improved function, and further unloading depleted preload reserve thereby reducing ventricular output. The concept of extremal loading was introduced to reflect the loading condition in which the intrinsic LV stroke work is maximized. Simulation of bi-ventricular failure with pulmonary hypertension revealed inadequacy of LV support alone. These simulations motivate the implementation of an extremum tracking feedback controller to potentially optimize ventricular recovery. 相似文献

The WHO 2008 definition of chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL) is based on clinical and laboratory parameters but not on molecular abnormalities. Mutations in CSF3R, SETBP1 and CALR are reported in patients with chronic neutrophilic leukemia (CNL). However, because CNL is rare, there are few large studies of this issue. We sequenced these genes in 14 patients who met the WHO-criteria of CNL. 8 subjects had CSF3R T618I , 6 SETBP1 mutations and 1 a CALR mutation. Our data suggest mutation analysis of CSF3R, SETBP1 and CALR should be included in the diagnostic criteria for CNL. These data may also have therapy implications. 相似文献

Creatinine is the most widely used clinical marker for assessing renal function. Concentrations of creatinine in human serum need to be carefully checked in order to ensure accurate diagnosis of renal function. Therefore, development of certified reference materials (CRMs) of creatinine in serum is of increasing importance. In this study, two new CRMs (Nos. GBW09170 and 09171) for creatinine in human serum have been developed. They were prepared with mixtures of several dozens of healthy people's and kidney disease patient's serum, respectively. The certified values of 8.10, 34.1 mg/kg for these two CRMs have been assigned by liquid chromatography-isotope dilution mass spectrometry (LC-IDMS) method which was validated by using standard reference material (SRM) of SRM909b (a reference material obtained from National Institute of Standards and Technology, NIST). The expanded uncertainties of certified values for low and high concentrations were estimated to be 1.2 and 1.1%, respectively. The certified values were further confirmed by an international intercomparison for the determination of creatinine in human serum (Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance, CCQM) of K80 (CCQM-K80). These new CRMs of creatinine in human serum pool are totally native without additional creatinine spiked for enrichment. These new CRMs are capable of validating routine clinical methods for ensuring accuracy, reliability and comparability of analytical results from different clinical laboratories. They can also be used for instrument validation, development of secondary reference materials, and evaluating the accuracy of high order clinical methods for the determination of creatinine in human serum. 相似文献

Recent studies have demonstrated that P2X7 plays a critical role in the immune system. Here, our results showed that P2X7 activated a NF-κB - but not an IFN-β-dependent luciferase reporter gene in HEK293T cells. P2X7 was involved in the LPS- and ATP-induced NF-κB activation but did not significantly impact the response to Zymosan in RAW264.7 cells. The activation of NF-κB and IFN-β induced by myeloid differentiation primary-response protein 88 (MyD88) was enhanced by P2X7 co-expression. The siRNA silencing MyD88 almost abolished the NF-κB activation induced by P2X7, and co-immunoprecipitation showed that P2X7 interacted with MyD88. The amino acids in the C-terminus, especially the LPS-binding region of P2X7, were critical for the cellular localization and immune function of P2X7. P2X7ΔC (190 amino acids deleted in the C-terminus) and P2X7 G586A variants localized throughout the cytoplasma with a little aggregation, which differs from the cell membrane localization of wild type P2X7. Both of them could not localize to Golgi or endoplasmic reticulum. P2X7ΔC and P2X7 G586A had impaired proteolytic cleavage of caspase-1 into the functional p20 subunit, which can activate pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β. P2X7 G586A also showed a slight interaction with MyD88 in our co-immunoprecipitation experiment. This interaction might result in the attenuated activation of NF-κB and IFN-β induced by MyD88. 相似文献

极端干旱区增雨加速泡泡刺群落土壤碳排放 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
以极端干旱区(敦煌)泡泡刺群落为研究对象,采用动态气室法(Li-8100,USA)于2010年5月至9月测定分析了生长季内增雨对泡泡刺群落土壤碳排放量的影响。结果表明:裸地和灌丛在09:00—11:00的碳排放量与全天碳排放量具有线性正相关关系(裸地R2=0.31—0.76,P<0.001;灌丛R2=0.85—0.96,P<0.001)。增雨50%(4 mm)—300%(24 mm)能够加速裸地和灌丛土壤的碳排放,每增雨1 mm,裸地和灌丛土壤的碳排放分别增加0.27和1.12 g/m2。当泡泡刺群落盖度一定时,与对照相比,每增加1 mm降雨,泡泡刺群落土壤碳排放量增加0.69 g/m2。在未来中国西北干旱地区降雨增加背景下,这一研究数据将为进一步估算该区域群落或生态系统碳收支提供可靠的参考数据。 相似文献

Aspergillus fumigatus is naturally exposed to a highly variable environment and subjected to various kinds of stresses. High-osmolarity glycerol mitogen-activated protein kinase (HOG-MAPK) pathway plays a crucial role in regulating cellular homeostasis in response to environmental changes. Here, we explored the contribution of HOG-MAPK pathway to the adaptive responses to thermal stress and other related stresses in A. fumigatus. We observed the phenotype features of wild-type strains and their derived mutants at 37 and 48?°C, and the results suggested that tcsB participates in response to high temperature. Furthermore, susceptibility test for antifungal drugs showed that SHO1 branch is probably involved in the susceptibility of A. fumigatus to itraconazole at high temperature. Although sakA expression at mRNA level appeared unchanged in wild-type AF293 subjected to thermal stress, phosphorylated SakAp level increased significantly in the strains exposed to cold stress, 250?mmol/L nystatin or 10?% dimethyl sulfoxide in a manner dependent on the SLN1 branch and independent on the SHO1 branch. Taken together, these results indicate that HOG-MAPK pathway, especially the SLN1 branch, plays an important role in the adaptations of A. fumigatus to thermal stress and other related stresses. 相似文献

Protein kinases play an important role in regulating the response to abiotic stress in plant. CIPKs are plant‐specific signal transducers, and some members have been identified. However, the precise functions of novel CIPKs still remain unknown. Here we report that HbCIPK2 is a positive regulator of salt and osmotic stress tolerance. HbCIPK2 was screened out of the differentially expressed fragments from halophyte Hordeum brevisubulatum by cDNA‐AFLP technique, and was a single‐copy gene without intron. Expression of HbCIPK2 was increased by salt, drought and ABA treatment. HbCIPK2 is mainly localized to the plasma membrane and nucleus. Ectopic expression of 35S:HbCIPK2 not only rescued the salt hypersensitivity in Arabidopsis mutant sos2‐1, but also enhanced salt tolerance in Arabidopsis wild type, and exhibited tolerance to osmotic stress during germination. The HbCIPK2 contributed to the ability to prevent K+ loss in root and to accumulate less Na+ in shoot resulting in K+/Na+ homeostasis and protection of root cell from death, which is consistent with the gene expression profile of HbCIPK2‐overexpressing lines. These findings imply possible novel HbCIPK2‐mediated salt signalling pathways or networks in H. brevisubulatum. 相似文献
