大鼠非致瘤四倍体细胞系的建立及细胞遗传学和酶学特征

从大鼠自然诱发的肉瘤细胞中,我们建立了一个四倍体细胞系(4n=84),命名为RC(ratcell)。它具有典型的成纤维细胞外形,能在玻璃表面贴壁生长,但不能生长在琼脂半固体培养基中。该细胞在含15％小牛血清的RPMI 1640培养基中生长良好,至今已连续繁殖112世代,细胞群体倍增时间约为15小时。染色体G-带分析表明,RC为整四倍体细胞,它的1条X染色体在第32至34区为均染区。RC细胞核仁组织者(NORs)活性显然比大鼠二倍体细胞NORs活性的加倍还高(P<0.001)。这个具有非常高NORs活性的RC细胞系对于研究细胞18S+28S rRNA基因转录活性的调控、基因表达与基因剂量关系有一定的意义。RC细胞还有异常高的磷酸酯酶活性,而且它的同工酶谱也与大鼠肌肉细胞明显不同。体内接种实验和扫描电镜的观察表明,RC是非致瘤细胞。RC细胞各号染色体的C-带图样与大鼠二倍体细胞无明显的差异。     

重楼属植物的免疫血清学研究

以海南重楼(Paris dunniana),花叶重楼(P.marmorata),多叶重楼(P.polyphylla),凌云重楼(P.cronquistii),五指莲(P.axialis),滇重楼(Paris polyphylla var.yunnanensis)等六种重楼属植物的根茎为材料,提取分离其球蛋白组份作为抗原,免疫家兔得到相应的抗血清。通过免疫双扩散,聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳、免疫电泳、免疫吸收试验以及酶标免疫等方法,研究了重楼属上述六个种和变种的血清学行为以及他们之间的相互关系。在此基础上,用不加权算术平均对群法(UPGMA)经成聚运算,得到基于平均吸收相似系数(Sabs.mean.)和Jaccard's结合系数的两种表相图,这两种表相图的结果是一致的。花叶重楼与多叶重楼有较大的血清反应相似性,五指莲与滇重楼有最大的血清反应相似性。多型种P.polyphylla在形态上的较大变异与血清反应分析的结果是一致的,而且血清反应相似性分析支持了从形态分析得出的假设:Paris dunniana在重楼属的系统发生中是一比较原始的种。     

~(60)CO-γ射线诱发的德国蜚蠊精母细胞中心体畸变

德国蜚蠊经不同剂量的~(60)Co-γ射线照射,以光镜和电镜观察精母细胞巨大中心体结构和数目的变化,发现:γ射线可诱发各种类型中心体畸变,如棒状、断裂、不分离、超数和微小中心体等;畸变率随剂量增加而升高;畸变类型和辐射剂量有密切关系,低剂量(500—1000r)诱发较多的棒状中心体和中心体断裂、中等剂量(2000r)诱发较多的超数中心体和中心体不分离、高剂量(5000r)诱发较多的微小中心体,看来低剂量γ射线主要影响中心体结构,高剂量则对中心体的生长发育有明显的阻滞作用。本文还讨论了中心体畸变的可能产生机制及在遗传毒理研究中应用的前景。     

THE INFLUENCE OF THE MODE OF NUTRITION ON THE DIGESTIVE SYSTEM OF OCHROMONAS MALHAMENSIS

The intracellular distribution and level of acid hydrolases in Ochromonas malhamensis were studied in cells grown osmotrophically in a defined medium, in a carbon-free starvation medium, and during phagotrophy in each of these media. By cytochemical techniques, little enzymic reaction product was observed in the vacuoles of osmotrophic cells grown in the defined medium. Starved cells, however, contained autophagic vacuoles and cannibalized other Ochromonas cells. Dense enzymic reaction product was observed in the digestive vacuoles and in the Golgi cisternae of these starved cells. Moreover, starved cells and cells grown in a nutritionally complete medium ingested Escherichia coli which appeared in digestive vacuoles containing enzymic reaction product. Biochemical assays for lysosomal acid phosphatase (E.C. 3.1.3.2 orthophosphoric monoester phosphohydrolase) and acid ribonuclease (E.C. 2.7.7.16 ribonucleate nucleotido-2'-transferase) were done on Ochromonas cultures in the same experimental treatments and under identical assay conditions as the cytochemical study. During starvation, the acid hydrolase specific activities were consistently twice those found in cells grown in an osmotrophic complete medium. Ochromonas fed E. coli showed no increase in acid hydrolase specific activity as compared to controls not fed E. coli. The latency of lysosomal acid hydrolases in cells fixed with glutaraldehyde was reduced, suggesting that this fixative increases lysosomal membrane permeability and may release enzymes or their reaction products into the cytoplasmic matrix during cytochemical analysis. This could explain the cytoplasmic staining artifact sometimes observed with glutaraldehyde-fixed cells when studied by the Gomori technique. This study confirms that Ochromonas malhamensis, a phytoflagellate, does produce digestive vacuoles and can ingest bacteria, thereby fulfilling its role as a heterotroph in an aquatic food chain. When Ochromonas is grown in a nutritionally complete osmotrophic medium, phagocytosis causes appearance of acid hydrolases in the digestive vacuoles, whereas the total activity of the enzymes remains unchanged. An organic carbon-free medium strongly stimulates acid hydrolaes activity and causes these enzymes to appear in the digestive vacuoles whether phagocytosis occurs or not.

以脊髓灰质炎病毒RNA为模板,反转录合成了长链ds-cDNA。将合成的脊灰病毒中I9株ds—cDNA片段重组到质粒pAT153上,获得了约占脊灰病毒中I9基因组95％以上的cDNA克隆。对克隆的中I9cDNA部分片段作了限制性内切酶图谱分析和部分核酸的序列分析,发现脊灰病毒中I9部分核酸顺序有所改变。     

Influence of SQ 30741 on thromboxane receptor-mediated responses in the feline pulmonary vascular bed.

The effects of SQ 30741, a thromboxane A2 (TxA2) receptor blocking agent, on responses to the TxA2 mimic, U-46619, were investigated in the pulmonary vascular bed of the intact-chest cat under constant-flow conditions. The administration of SQ 30741 in doses of 1-2 mg/kg iv markedly reduced vasoconstrictor responses to U-46619 without altering responses to prostaglandin (PG) F2 alpha or PGD2 and serotonin. SQ 30741 had no significant effect on mean vascular pressures in the cat, and the dose-response curve for U-46619 was shifted to the right in a parallel manner with a similar apparent maximal response. In addition to not altering responses to PGF2 alpha, PGD2 alpha, or serotonin, SQ 30741 (2 mg/kg iv) was without significant effect on pulmonary vasoconstrictor responses to the PGD2 metabolite 9 alpha, 11 beta-PGF2, norepinephrine, angiotensin II, BAY K 8644, endothelin 1, or endothelin 2. Although responses to vasoconstrictor agents, which act through a variety of mechanisms, were not altered, responses to the PG and TxA2 precursor, arachidonic acid, were reduced significantly. The duration of the TxA2 receptor blockade was approximately 30 and 75 min at the 1- and 2-mg/kg iv doses of the antagonist, respectively. The present data show that SQ 30741 selectively blocks TxA2 receptor-mediated responses in a competitive and reversible manner in the pulmonary vascular bed. These data suggest that responses to arachidonic acid are due in large part to the formation of TxA2 and that discrete TxA2 receptors unrelated to receptors activated by PGD2 or PGF2 alpha are most likely located in resistance vessel elements in the feline pulmonary vascular bed.     

高胆固醇高脂肪膳食对家兔β-VLDL组成及其与巨噬细胞相互作用的影响的初步研究

给家兔喂以1％胆固醇及10％菜油(A组)或猪油(B组)50多天后A组血胆固醇水平(824.2±265.1mg/dl)明显低于B组(1666±693.8mg/dl);A组甘油三酯水平(51.9±19.1mg/dl)亦低于B组(104±40.2mg/dl)。二组家兔的β—VLDL的脂类组成无差别,但A组β—VLDL的apoE高于B组,分别为45.2％及37.5％。高分子量apoB(apoB_h)为33.6％,低于B组β-VLDL(47.3％)。A组β-VLDL促进小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞胆固醇堆积的程度大于B组,可能与apoE含量高有关。我们认为多不饱和脂酸减轻动脉粥样硬化(As)的作用不在于改变脂蛋白构成后阻碍泡沫细胞的形成而是促进β—VLDL从体内清除。
