A detailed analysis of early events during in-vitro fertilization of bovine follicular oocytes

Bovine follicular oocytes collected at slaughter were matured and fertilized in vitro with in-vitro capacitated spermatozoa. Analysis of 621 penetrated ova fixed at various times after in-vitro insemination led to definition of 6 stages of early development. A time sequence for sperm penetration, sperm head decondensation, male pronucleus formation, the activation of second meiotic division, female chromosome decondensation and pronucleus development was established. First sperm penetration into the ooplasm was recorded 6 h after insemination; 1-2 h was required for the sperm head to decondense and another 4-6 h to develop into the opposing pronucleus stage. Synkaryosis and first cleavage occurred 28 h after fertilization. Examination of the early stages revealed four types of abnormalities, i.e. polyspermy, polygyny, asynchrony between male and female pronucleus development, and preactivation of cytokinesis.     

Characteristics of Five New Photoautotrophic Suspension Cultures Including Two Amaranthus Species and a Cotton Strain Growing on Ambient CO(2) Levels

Suspension cultures of cotton (Gossypium hirsutum), Amaranthus cruentus, A. powellii, Datura innoxia, and a Nicotiana tabacum-N. glutinosa fusion hybrid were adapted to grow photoautotrophically under continuous light. The cotton strain grew with an atmosphere of ambient CO₂ (about 0.06 to 0.07% in the culture room) while the other strains required elevated CO₂ levels (5%). Photoautotrophy was indicated by the requirement for CO₂ and for light for growth. The strains grew with doubling times near 14 days and had from 50 to 600 micrograms of chlorophyll per gram of fresh weight. The cells grew in small to moderate sized clumps with cell sizes from 40 to 70 micrometers (diameter). Like most photoautotrophic cultures described so far the ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPcase) activity levels were well below those of mature leaves. The phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase levels were not elevated in the C₄Amaranthus species. The cells showed high dark respiration rates and had lower net CO₂ fixation under high O₂ conditions. Dark CO₂ fixation rates ranged from near 10 to 30% of that in light. Fluorescence emission spectra measurements show that the cell antenna pigments systems of the four strains examined are similar to that of chloroplasts of green plants. The cotton strain which was capable of growth under ambient CO₂ conditions showed the unique properties of a high RuBPcase activation level in ambient CO₂ and a stable ability to show net CO₂ fixation in 21% O₂ conditions.     

Applied anatomy of the anterolateral femoral flap

A study of the source of the blood supply to the anterolateral femoral flap was carried out on 42 lower limbs of adult cadavers (among them 35 cadavers with injection of red latex and 1 with india ink into the arteries and 6 vascular cast specimens), and the surface locations of the vascular pedicle were detected on 50 healthy adults. It was found that the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral vessel was an ideal axial vessel. There are constant perforating branches of the myocutaneous artery or cutaneous branches from the intermuscular space to the anterolateral femoral skin. The area extends about 12 x 30 cm. Within the flap, the anterior branch of the anterolateral cutaneous nerve of the high is located. This flap has been widely used for free transplantation in China since 1983 with satisfactory results.     

蛋白和酯酶电泳在根霉鉴定上的应用

对根霉(Rhizopus)属的十个种或变种共二十四株菌的菌体可溶性蛋白和酯酶同工酶进行了电泳的研究得到对这个属分类上更多的依据.在严格控制培养,提取和电泳条件的情况下,同一株菌不同批次所得菌体蛋白电泳图谱有较好的重复性.在相同的条件下,每个种的根霉有各自特征性蛋白图谱,种内不同菌株的蛋白图谱和酯酶酶谱基本相同.特别是形态特征明显、分类地位明确的种,种内各株的图谱也较一致,如R. stolonifer;与R.circinans.在确定新变种R. delemar var. latoapicalis时,电泳图谱与R.delemar var.delema:有明显不同,起到了佐证作用.因此认为,蛋白图谱与酯酶酶谱相辅相成,在根霉种的分类中是一有效的辅助手段.     

前列腺素E_2、F_(2α)对大鼠颗粒细胞PA活力的影响

年龄26—27天的Wistar雌鼠用PMSG与HCG诱导成熟,同时分别注射3、6、9 mg消炎痛,分离卵巢颗粒细胞并离体培养,培液中的PA活力经~(125)Ⅰ-纤维蛋白降解法检测,均无被抑制现象(图1)。仅用PMSG激动大鼠的颗粒细胞离体培养于含HCG及不同浓度(10~(-8)mol/L—10~(-5)mol/L)的消炎痛培液内,各组PA活力均未出现明显变化(图2)。离体条件下PGE_2增强PMSG激动大鼠颗粒细胞PA活力的事实说明,消炎痛抑制实验未能显示前列腺素与PA的关系,可能因所用以诱导大鼠临近排卵的PMSG和HCG分别所含FSH与LH的高活力促使PA活力达到最高点,以致前列腺素对PA的影响被掩盖;PGF_(2α)对PA未显示任何作用(图4)。另外,PGE_2使仅接受PMSG大鼠颗粒细胞PA升高的事实(图3)提示,PGE_2有摹拟LH的作用;未经PMSG与HCG处理鼠的卵泡细胞的PA活力也受PGE_2的影响,说明它还有摹拟FSH的作用。     

诱导小麦-天兰偃麦草-黑麦三属杂种花粉植株的研究

以法国六倍体小黑麦为母本,分别与普通小麦(Triticum aestivum)和天兰偃麦草(Elytrigia intermedia of Agropyron glaucum)的杂交后代中的中间类型3号和5号杂交。由此获得的三属杂种F_1性状介于亲本之间,兼有三属亲本类型的特征,呈中间类型。用马铃薯-Ⅱ培养基培养三属杂种F_1的花药,诱导花粉愈伤组织。将所获得的愈伤组织转入190-2培养基进行分化,已成功地诱导出一批三属间杂种花粉植株,并用Giemsa显带技术鉴定花粉植株的染色体组组成。     

异细胞质八倍体小黑麦的获得及其细胞遗传

改变小黑麦细胞质有可能增加减数分裂的稳定性,提高小黑麦的结实率与籽粒饱满度。作者以不同细胞质的“中国春”小麦与黑麦杂交,F_1幼苗用秋水仙素加倍获得双二倍体、或以八倍体小黑麦为父本与F_1杂交,获得异细胞质八倍体小黑麦(Triticale 8x)8个品系。实验结果表明:细胞质不同的“中国春”小麦与黑麦杂交结实率差异显著,出苗率亦不同,F_1株型多为两亲的中间型,花药不开裂,个别组合出现雄蕊雌化现象,有的组合表现生长弱性,减数分裂中期Ⅰ常出现1至数个末端交叉的棒状二价体,其数量在不同组合间差异显著,表明异细胞质对染色体配对有影响。D类细胞质对改进八倍体小黑麦的结实率可能有一定的作用。
