普通小麦×东方旱麦草属间杂种的产生及无性系的建立

本研究以普通小麦（ＴｒｉｔｉｃｕｍａｅｓｔｉｖｕｍＬ．;２ｎ＝６ｘ＝４２,ＡＡＢＢＤＤ）为母本,以东方旱麦草（Ｅｒｅｍｏｐｙｒｕｍｏｒｉｅｎｔａｌｅ（Ｌ．）Ｊａｕｂ．ｅｔＳｐａｃｈ;２ｎ＝４ｘ＝２８）为父本,首次成功地获得了属间远缘杂种Ｆ１,其平均结实率为０．０８％。利用植物细胞工程技术,对杂种幼胚愈伤组织的诱导、胚性无性系的建立、植株再生、壮苗培养等,最终获得了生长正常的杂种Ｆ１植株。同时,通过对杂种幼胚愈伤组织、根尖细胞的细胞学观察,结果表明该杂种为真杂种,即２ｎ＝５ｘ＝３５（预期染色体数）的杂种细胞占主体;另外,因组培过程中发生了染色体数目的变异,故也有少量２ｎ＝２８－３４染色体数的细胞。以上杂种的获得为将旱麦草优异基因向小麦的转移奠定了基础。     

新型生物——人工复合血管研制的初步报告

本文设计一种由胶原和高分子聚合物组成的新型生物一人工复合血管。其研制过程是将包绕有聚酯网的硅胶棒埋入羊的皮下组织,再将形成的经聚酯网为支架的胶原管经醛化处理。作者通过肉眼和SEM观察提出了研制生物——人工复合血管的要点:聚酯网网孔要合适,其与硅胶棒的间隙要恰当,理化处理方法更要选择好。

人白介素6受体基因在痘苗病毒载体系统中的表达

人ＩＬ－６受体是一个在各种细胞上广泛表达的跨膜糖蛋白分子,是ＩＬ－６发挥细胞效应所必需的。本文通过将ＩＬ－６ＲｃＤＮＡ重组到痘苗病毒的ＴＫ基因中构建成重组痘苗病毒ＶＩＬ６Ｒ。细胞原位杂交和ＡＰＡＡＰ染色结果表明,感染ＶＩＬ６Ｒ后的Ｖｅｒｏ细胞中,ＩＬ－６Ｒ在ｍＲＮＡ和蛋白水平上均呈现较强的表达。Ｗｅｓｔｅｒｎｂｌｏｔ分析所表达的分子量为８０ｋＤ,表明所表达的产物是糖基化的。ＩＬ－６结合试验表明,表达的膜ＩＬ－６Ｒ能够结合ｒＩＬ－６,说明它是有功能的。利用ＶＩＬ６Ｒ免疫小鼠后,能够刺激较强的抗体产生。从而为进一步研究ＩＬ－６Ｒ的信号传导和构效关系提供了基础。

Morphology and life history of Halopteris filicina (Sphacelariales, Phaeophyceae) from Korea

The vegetative morphology and life history of Halopteris filicina (Grateloup) Kutzing, collected from Korea, were examined in laboratory culture. Field plants attaining 3–5 cm in height were epilithic, tufted, yellowish-brown, and produced numerous erect axes with alternately distichous branches from compact basal discs. They were cultured under a 12:12 h LD photoperiod at 10°-C, 15°C and 20°C to observe the influence of temperature on reproduction. At 10°C plants grew only vegetatively, whereas at 15°C and 20°C they produced unilocular sporangia. Unispores released from sporangia developed into monoecious, anisogamous gametophytes that formed plurilocular female and male gametangia on the same lateral branches. The zygotes, by fusion of female macrogametes and male microgametes, developed into sporophytes bearing unilocular sporangia, whereas the unfused female gametes germinated parthenogenetically. This species was confirmed to have an isomorphic life history, basically similar to the other species of Sphacelariales.     

Anaerobic Degradation of Propionate by a Mesophilic Acetogenic Bacterium in Coculture and Triculture with Different Methanogens

A mesophilic acetogenic bacterium (MPOB) oxidized propionate to acetate and CO₂ in cocultures with the formate- and hydrogen-utilizing methanogens Methanospirillum hungatei and Methanobacterium formicicum. Propionate oxidation did not occur in cocultures with two Methanobrevibacter strains, which grew only with hydrogen. Tricultures consisting of MPOB, one of the Methanobrevibacter strains, and organisms which are able to convert formate into H₂ plus CO₂ (Desulfovibrio strain G11 or the homoacetogenic bacterium EE121) also degraded propionate. The MPOB, in the absence of methanogens, was able to couple propionate conversion to fumarate reduction. This propionate conversion was inhibited by hydrogen and by formate. Formate and hydrogen blocked the energetically unfavorable succinate oxidation to fumarate involved in propionate catabolism. Low formate and hydrogen concentrations are required for the syntrophic degradation of propionate by MPOB. In triculture with Methanospirillum hungatei and the aceticlastic Methanothrix soehngenii, propionate was degraded faster than in biculture with Methanospirillum hungatei, indicating that low acetate concentrations are favorable for propionate oxidation as well.     

Rat brain Na channel mRNAs in non-excitable Schwann cells

The expression of rat brain voltage-sensitive Na⁺ channel mRNAs in Schwann cells was examined using in situ hybridization cytochemistry and RT-PCR. The mRNAs of rat brain Na⁺ channel subtype II and III, but not subtype I, were detected in cultured Schwann cells from sciatic nerve and in intact sciatic nerve, which contains Schwann cells but not neuronal cell bodies. These results indicate that rat brain Na⁺ channel mRNAs, which have been considered as mainly neuronal-type messages, are also expressed in glial cells in vitro and in vivo.
