Reactivation and Dedifferentiation of Differentiated Murine Erythroleukemic Cell Nuclei

A murine erythroleukemic cell line, 745 A4-TG, deficient in hypoxanthine-guanine-phosphoribosyl transferase, can be induced with 3 mM hexamethylene bisacetamide to yield at least 50% of cells undergoing irreversible erythroid differentiation and finally losing capacity for cell divisions. The effects of such induced differentiation of 745 A4-TG on its ability to form viable and proliferating hybrids when fused with 3T3 1T22 fibroblasts were investigated. We found that when the induced 745 A4-TG cells were used, more continuously proliferating hybrids were obtained than could be accounted for by the residual uninduced cells which remained in these induced preparations. This suggests that some of the induced 745 A4-TG cells, when fused with 3T3 1T22 reverted from the induced phenotype of a limited capacity for cell proliferation to an uninduced state of continuous proliferation. This observation was further confirmed with the use of fully differentiated 745 A4-TG cells, which were obtained after selection with a bromodeoxyuridine suicide treatment to eliminate the uninduced and the partially differentiated cells in the preparations. When these selected, fully differentiated cells, as characterized by their lack of proliferation capacity and thymidine kinase activity, were fused with 3T3 1T22 (also deficient in thymidine kinase), it was found that not only were viable hybrid colonies obtained in a selection medium, which precluded the proliferation of either parental cells, but these hybrids continued to proliferate for more than two months in selection medium. These data thus confirmed that some fully differentiated erythroleukemic nucleus components in the hybrids were reactivated to regain capacity for cell proliferation and to dedifferentiate to synthesize thymidine kinase for survival in the selection medium. The lack of hemoglobin synthesis by these hybrids also indicates dedifferention of these murine erythroleukemic components in the hybrids.     

okemon及其在肿瘤中的研究进展

Pokemon 基因即POK 红系髓性致癌因子，也被称为FBI -1 ，LRF ，OCZF ，TIP ，它是POK 转录抑制物家族成员之一，其编 码的产物具有BTB / POZ 域和锌指结构,它是第一个被发现的可变阅读框基因ARF ( Alternative reading frame ，ARF )的特异性 转录抑制物，Pokemon 通过特异抑制ARF 转录来调控细胞周期、诱导肿瘤发生、促进肿瘤的发生发展，在一些人类肿瘤如食管鳞 癌、肺癌、结肠癌、人贲门癌、膀胱癌，前列腺癌和乳腺癌等肿瘤组织中具有较高的表达水平。Pokemon 的特殊性在于还能与其它 癌基因如Bcl-2，MDM2 等结合之后发挥作用来促进其他癌基因的活性。因此可以认为Pokemon 是肿瘤的总开关，对Pokemon 基 因的进一步研究有助于为肿瘤的诊断和治疗提供新的途径和方法。     

Characterization of polymorphic microsatellites in the castration parasite plant‐ant Allomerus octoarticulatus cf. demerarae (Formicidae: Myrmicinae)

Fifteen microsatellite loci were isolated from the Peruvian tropical plant‐ant Allomerus octoarticulatus cf. demerarae (Hymenoptera: Myrmicinae) and their polymorphism was characterized. High levels of within‐population variation were observed at most loci, with number of alleles ranging from one to 21, and heterozygosity from 0 to 1 per population sample. Cross‐species amplification of these loci was also tested in one other species of the ant genus Allomerus (Allomerus decemarticulatus), displaying similar life history.     

尼泊尔生态系统质量评估与时空格局变化——基于参照条件的评估方法

良好的生态系统质量是维持人类社会供给需求和可持续发展目标实现的重要保障。针对尼泊尔自然地理环境复杂多样，区域间气候差异明显的特点，结合基于参照条件的评估方法可以得到生态系统质量的相对水平值，其结果能够反映出不同的变化信息。植被是区域生态系统质量变化的重要指示器，利用尼泊尔五大地理区以及四种主要植被生态系统类型划分出20个生态评估区，从表征植被生态系统的水平结构、生产功能和垂直结构3个方面计算生态参数相对密度指标（RVI），结合主成分分析法构建植被生态系统质量指数（VEQI），并以其国家自然保护区为参照，构建基于参照条件的生态系统质量评估模型，计算了尼泊尔2016和2020年基于参照条件的植被生态系统质量指数（VEQI''）并分析其生态系统质量的时空格局变化。结果表明：（1）2016至2020年，尼泊尔生态系统质量现实值VEQI的平均值增加了3.49%，总体上，在参照生态系统质量（VEQI_ref）提高（约1.41%）的背景下，生态系统质量相对水平值VEQI''增加了1.42%；（2）对于尼泊尔地区，评估区89%分位数的VEQI与其对应的国家自然保护区的参照值具有很强的相关性，总体差异较小，可以代替作为参照值；（3）从空间格局变化趋势来看，尼泊尔生态系统质量变好、基本稳定和变差的面积分别占植被生态系统总面积的74.16%、14.25%和11.59%。与数量不足、较难收集利用的野外观测台站数据相比，国家自然保护区更接近理想参照生态系统的假设，通过有限的自然保护区确定生态评估区的参照值，实现生态系统质量的快速评估，其结果具有更好的时空可比性，可以为区域生态质量变化评估及量化分析等方面提供参考。     

The titan mutants of Arabidopsis are disrupted in mitosis and cell cycle control during seed development

We describe in this report a novel class of mutants that should facilitate the identification of genes required for progression through the mitotic cell cycle during seed development in angiosperms. Three non-allelic titan ( ttn ) mutants with related but distinct phenotypes are characterized. The common feature among these mutants is that endosperm nuclei become greatly enlarged and highly polyploid. The mutant embryo is composed of a few giant cells in ttn1 , several small cells in ttn2 , and produces a normal plant in ttn3 . Condensed chromosomes arrested at prophase of mitosis are found in the free nuclear endosperm of ttn1 and ttn2 seeds. Large mitotic figures with excessive numbers of chromosomes are visible in ttn3 endosperm. The ttn1 mutation appears to disrupt cytoskeletal organization because endosperm nuclei fail to migrate to the chalazal end of the seed. How double fertilization leads to the establishment of distinct patterns of mitosis and cytokinesis in the embryo and endosperm is a central question in plant reproductive biology. Molecular isolation of TITAN genes should help to answer this question, as well as related issues concerning cell cycle regulation, chromosome movement and endosperm identity in angiosperms.
