大鼠隔—海马通路损伤对海马内递质含量及酶活力的影响

单侧切断大鼠海马缴和部分穹窿可使海马部分去神经。损伤后7d,海马内胆碱能系统中乙酰胆碱(ACh)含量下降72.5%,胆碱乙酰基转移酶(ChAT)活力下降45.7%,胆碱酯酶活力下降52.2%,在单胺能系统中,去甲肾上腺素(NA)含量下降16.3%,多巴胺(DA)含量下降31.3%,5-羟色胺含量下降30.3%。在损伤过程中,海马内氨基酸含量没有改变。实验结果表明,海马缴和穹窿是脑内胆碱能和单胺能传入神经到达海马靶区的部分共同通路。     

The long-distance migration of Nilaparvata lugens (Stål) (Delphacidae) in China: radar observations of mass return flight in the autumn

Abstract.

• 1 A case study is presented of the autumn migration of the brown planthopper, Nilaparvata lugens (Stål), in the area of Nanjing in the People's Republic of China. The study was made using a high frequency (8 mm wavelength) radar and a net suspended from a kytoon.
• 2 The observations confirmed that long-distance return migrations occur in China in mid and late September, with N.lugens being carried on the prevailing north-easterly wind towards the autumn infestation and overwintering areas of the species.
• 3 After mass take-off in the late afternoon or at dusk, the migrants flew for several hours during the evening, often in a dense layer which formed at heights between about 400 and 1000m above ground. These layers often had well-defined ceilings corresponding to an air temperature of about 16°C. The migration height was above the top of the surface temperature inversion, i.e. the migrants did not fly at the height of the warmest air.
• 4 The dense layer concentrations overflying the radar were backtracked to source areas up to 240 km away in the north-east of Jiangsu Province. Planthoppers observed emigrating from the Nanjing area would reach areas in south Anhui Province or north Jiangxi Province if they flew for 12 h.
• 5 There was a second period of mass take-off at dawn. Insect layers sometimes formed but did not last longer than 1–2h.
• 6 The present results were strikingly different from those previously observed in the dry season in the Philippines, where migratory flight durations were largely confined to periods of about 30min at dusk and dawn.
• 7 Our observations are discussed in relation to the equator-wards return migrations undertaken in autumn by other insect species, and the importance of these migrations for the maintenance of long-flying genotypes in the overwintering populations is considered.

     

肾上腺皮质激素对心房钠尿肽基因表达的促进作用

给完整的及切除肾上腺的雌性 Wistar 大鼠分別注射地塞米松、去氧皮质酮或地塞米松加去氧皮质酮;冷酚法提取心房总 RNA,用α-~(32P)标记的大鼠心房肽 cDNA 探针与之杂交。完整大鼠接受地塞米松和切除肾上腺后接受地塞米松加去氧皮质酮的大鼠,心房肽基因转录产物增加2倍,其余组无显著变化。结果提示糖皮质激素可促进心房肽基因表达,但此作用依赖于盐皮质激素的同时存在,单纯盐皮质激素不能增强该基因的表达。     

鲫鱼视网膜谷氨酸受体和GABA受体在爪蟾卵母细胞中的表达

我们以两栖类卵母细胞为功能表达系统,通过注射鲫鱼（Ｃａｒａｓｓｉｕｓｃａｒａｓｓｉｕｓ）视网膜ｍＲＮＡ,利用电压箝及药物灌流手段,系统地研究了鲫鱼视网膜内氨基酸受体的类型和特征,结果如下：（１）Ｇｌｕ受体：ＫＡ可以诱发明显的去极化电流,而且Ｄｉａｚｏｘｉｄｅ能增强ＫＡ诱导的反应,这提示鲫鱼视网膜内某些Ｃｌｕ受体是ＡＭＰＡ选择性亚型（ＡＭＰＡ－ｐｒｅｆｅｒｒｉｎｇｓｕｂｔｙｐｅ）。（２）ＣＡＢＡ受体：ＧＡＢＡ能诱发一个快速、光滑的内向电流,绝大部分对ＧＡＢＡ的反应可被ｂｉｃｕｃｕｌｌｉｎｅ所压抑,而ＧＡＢＡ＿Ｂ受体的激动剂ｂａｃｌｏｆｅｎ则无任何作用,这提示,鲫鱼视网膜内大部分是ＧＡＢＡ＿Ａ受体。     

反义寡核苷酸片段可抑制鲫鱼视网膜电压依赖性钾离子通道的表达

爪蟾卵母细胞经注射鲫鱼视网总ＲＮＡ后,可表达大量电压依赖性钾离子通道。在此基础上,我们进一步发现,一个特定序列的寡核苷酸能专一地抑制该通道的表达。由于我们设计与合成的该片段与果蝇、小鼠中已克隆的钾通道中编码Ｎ端的一个多肽的ｍＲＮＡ完全互补,因此推测：鲫鱼视网膜中的Ｋ这个区域与其它物种的Ｋ通道有高度同源性,这为克隆该基因和研究它的功能提供了重要资料。     

蛋白激酶C在血小板聚集中的作用

利用￣（３２）Ｐ－ＮａＨ２ＰＯ４标记猪血小板,以蛋白激酶Ｃ的４０ｋＤ底物为蛋白激活的标志．用血小板激动剂在聚集浓度范围内处理血小板,结果表明,除了不能使猪血小板聚集的肾上腺素外,凝血酶等激动剂都使血小板４０ｋＤ底物蛋白磷酸化明显增加,同时３８ｋＤ,２６ｋＤ蛋白质磷酸化也明显增加,且４０ｋＤ底物磷酸化与血小板聚集有平行增加关系．蛋白激酶Ｃ在血小板聚集中可能起着重要的调节作用。     

腺苷转运体亲和层析分离

本文合成了一种腺苷亲和层析凝胶,并采用亲和层析法从牛脑细胞膜上分离出了几种膜上结合的腺苷结合蛋白质。这些蛋白质在ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ电泳凝胶上为单一或主要的蛋白带,分子量分别为６４ｋｄ,４５ｋｄ,３５ｋｄ。腺苷转运体抑制剂潘生丁和ＮＢＭＰＲ对６４ｋｄ蛋白与＾３ｈ－腺苷的结合抑制作用远强于腺苷受体的激动剂ＮＥＣＡ和Ｒ－ＰＩＡ;这表明６４ｋｄ蛋白为牛脑细胞膜上结合的腺苷转运体。
