Mechanisms of heat protection by cycloheximide or puromycin: Involvement of polyamines?

1. 1.|When Chinese hamster ovary cells are treated with cycloheximide (10 μg/ml) or puromycin (100 μg/ml) for 2 h before and during heating at 43°C for 3 h, there is protection from hyperthermic killing; i.e. the plating efficiency increases 2000-fold from 3.7 × 10⁻⁵ to (6–9) × 10⁻².

2. 2.|The total intracellular levels of spermidine and spermine are not altered by the hyperthermic or drug treatments.

3. 3.|The small 30% decrease in intracellular putrescine observed after heating is not altered by drug treatment.

4. 4.|Heat protection by treatment with cycloheximide or puromycin cannot be attributed to changes in levels of total intracellular polyamines.

四川成都市郊正常成年男性血清生殖激素水平及其频数分布

本文用放射免疫测定法(RIA),测定了200～290例中国四川成都市郊30～73岁的正常成年男性血清睾酮(T)促黄体激素(LH).卵泡刺激素(FSH)及泌乳激素(PRL)的水平及其分布,进行了不同年龄水平差异显著性的观察,见到睾酮与泌乳激素水平无显著差异,促黄体激素及卵泡刺激素水平,随年龄之增加而升高,差异有显著性,并测得它们在血清中水平的分布:LH、FSH及PRL均为对数正态公布,T既非正态又非对数正态,但其频率分布较对称,接近正态分布。     

烧伤后大鼠肠道菌群的改变及其易位

本文报告了25％烧伤后注射免疫抑制剂(地寨米松磷酸钠)大鼠7种肠道细菌的定量、内脏及血液的细菌培养和肠壁的病理形态学改变。单纯烧伤组(B组)和单纯注射免疫抑制剂组(Ⅰ组)动物肠壁的病理改变较轻,肠道菌群改变不明显,其肠道细菌易位率也很低。烧伤后注射免疫抑制剂的动物(BⅠ组)肠壁病变严重,肠道菌群改变明显。其中,肠杆菌在回肠、盲肠,结肠内容物中的菌量均明显升高;回肠内容物中拟杆菌的菌量明显减少;该组动物肠道细菌易位率也明显增高,达60％。此外,BⅠ组、Ⅰ组部分动物发生了由棒状杆菌及由棒状扦菌和肠杆菌混合引起的内源性感染。根据不同肠段肠壁病变严重程度、菌群变化的部位以及不同部位肠管生理功能的不同,我们推测,回肠以上肠段是肠道细菌易位的主要部位。     

Inheritance of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase: genotyping in Chinese,Japanese and South Korean families reveals dominance of the mutant allele

Summary Genotyping of mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH I) was performed in enzymatically amplified DNA of 20 Chinese, Japanese and South Korean families (85 individuals) and in 113 unrelated persons by employing allele-specific oligonucleotide probes and dot blot hybridization. Genotyping individuals with phenotypic deficiency of ALDH I activity always showed the presence of at least one mutant allele. The data are compatible with a model assuming dominant inheritance of the mutant allele, which we have previously suggested on the basis of a population study.     

Screening of yeast strains capable of hyperproducing amylolytic enzymes

Summary Fifteen strains of yeast, which produced an extracellular amylolytic enzymes, were isolated from nature. One of them produced more than 100 times the enzyme activity in comparison with the 14 strains and the extremely hyperproducing strain of yeast was identified asCandida sp. 347. Paper chromatograms of the amylolytic enzyme demonstrated activity of amyloglucosidase. The optimum pH for activity of the enzyme was 5.5–6.0 and optimum temperature was 60°C.     

神经敏感性的降低是棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯抗药性的重要机制

用扫描电子显微镜和光学显微镜的染色观察,研究了棉铃虫Helicoverpa armigeraHubner 3龄幼虫腹部神经一肌肉的分布,表明其腹纵肌细胞适合于作电生理细胞内记录。用电生理细胞内微电极记录法研究了棉铃虫三个品系：对照品系、功夫菊酯抗性品系(Cy-R,抗性指数13.4)和氰戊菊酯抗性品系(Fn-R,抗性指数37.9)的3龄幼虫神经一肌肉材料对相应杀虫剂的神经敏感性。结果表明：用10^-6mol/L的功夫菊酯处理Cy-R,在30min内有40%的个体对药剂无反应,另外60%的个体产生反应所需的时间是对照品系的3.5倍。用10^-6mol/L的氰戊菊酯处理Fn-R,在30min内有47%的个体对药剂无反应,另外53%的个体产生反应所需的时间是对照品系的4.2倍。这些结果说明神经敏感性降低是棉铃虫对拟除虫菊酯抗药性的重要机制。     

从水稻同源三倍体中鉴定出无融合生殖种质TAR

水稻杂种优势的成功应用使水稻单产提高了20%,这主要得益于70年代初细胞质雄性不育系的发现和利用。但传统的三系法杂交水稻必须做到不育系、保持系、恢复系“三系”配套,选育程序和杂交种子生产环节较复杂,以致培育目标组合的周期长、效率低、推广环节多,同时种子成本高、价格贵[1]。80年代光敏核不育水稻以其“一系两用、配组自由”等优越性大有取代三系杂交水稻的趋势。但是,光敏核不育特性同时又受温度的调控,加之育性波动等缺陷使两系杂交水稻的研究和利用受到严重制约[2]。80年代后期,科技工作者开始探索利用无融合生殖固定水稻杂种优…
