SARS病毒NS-1株稳定性及培养条件的研究

用SARS病毒NS-1株接种Vero细胞,37℃培养,于培养1、2、3、4d收获病毒液,分别置-70℃冻融和4℃释放,于不同时期取样进行病毒滴定。结果显示,SARS病毒NS-1株各代次培养特性和形态学变化完全相同,有较好的抗原特异性,病毒滴度稳定,4℃保存125d,滴度下降2．25lgCCID50／ml,-70℃保存6个月,滴度未见明显下降。SARS病毒NS-1株未经冻融或释放,1d收获的病毒滴度比2、3、4d收获的病毒滴度低,经冻融或释放,1、2、3、4d收获的病毒滴度无明显区别,病毒收获时的病毒滴度与形态学变化成正相关。不同接种条件收获的病毒液,病毒滴度无明显区别。SARS NS-1株有较好的遗传稳定性和保存稳定性,培养2d,4℃释放收获病毒液,细胞悬液与病毒混合接种更简单,易操作,更适合疫苗规模生产。

Phylogenetic positions of several amitochondriate protozoa

Several groups of parasitic protozoa, as represented by Giardia, Trichomonas, Entamoeba and Microsporida, were once widely considered to be the most primitive extant eukaryotic group―Archezoa. The main evidence for this is their ‘lacking mitochondria’ and possessing some other primitive features between prokaryotes and eukaryotes, and being basal to all eukaryotes with mitochondria in phylogenies inferred from many molecules. Some authors even proposed that these organisms diverged before the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondria within eukaryotes. This view was once considered to be very significant to the study of origin and evolution of eukaryotic cells (eukaryotes). However, in recent years this has been challenged by accumulating evidence from new studies. Here the sequences of DNA topoisomerase II in G. lamblia, T. vaginalis and E. histolytica were identified first by PCR and sequencing, then combining with the sequence data of the microsporidia Encephalitozoon cunicul and other eukaryotic groups of different evolutionary positions from GenBank, phylogenetic trees were constructed by various methods to investigate the evolutionary positions of these amitochondriate protozoa. Our results showed that since the characteristics of DNA topoisomerase II make it avoid the defect of ‘long-branch attraction’ appearing in the previous phylogenetic analyses, our trees can not only reflect effectively the relationship of different major eukaryotic groups, which is widely accepted, but also reveal phylogenetic positions for these amitochondriate protozoa, which is different from the previous phylogenetic trees. They are not the earliest-branching eukaryotes, but diverged after some mitochondriate organisms such as kinetoplastids and mycetozoan; they are not a united group but occupy different phylogenetic positions. Combining with the recent cytological findings of mitochondria-like organelles in them, we think that though some of them (e.g. diplo-monads, as represented by Giardia) may occupy a very low evolutionary position, generally these organisms are not as extremely primitive as was thought before; they should be poly-phyletic groups diverging after the endosymbiotic origin of mitochondrion to adapt themselves to anaerobic parasitic life.     

柯萨奇病毒致病毒性心肌炎的细胞凋亡研究

病毒性心肌炎是心血管系统的常见病与多发病。对病毒引起的心肌细胞病理改变及机制的探讨一直是该领域的研究热点。自从科学家报道“凋亡”这种细胞死亡形式以来,为病毒性疾病研究者找到了一条新的研究途径。此后,许多国内外基础医学研究者通过不同方法对细胞受到病毒侵袭后的死亡形式进行研究。目前认为,病毒性心肌炎急性期机体心肌组织的确存在凋亡,     

分子运动性预测麻栎种子离体胚轴适宜贮藏条件初探

应用电子顺磁共振波谱仪和自旋标记技术,以硝基氧探针为标记物,检测了室温下麻栎种子离体胚轴脱水过程中分子运动性的变化。发现含水量0.7gH2O/gDW至0.64gH2O/gDW范围是细胞质粘度的转折区域,低于这个含水量区域,细胞质粘度骤然上升,推测这个区域是室温下保存离体胚轴的适宜含水量下限。通过变温电子顺磁共振波谱测定,找到离体胚轴含水量在0.43gH2O/gDW至1.02gH2O/gDW范围内,分子运动性的临界温度和玻璃态相变温度所在区间。根据分子运动性随温度变化的规律,预测含水量为0.69gH2O/gDW的麻栎种子离体胚轴适宜贮藏温度约为-50℃。     

四眼斑水龟低温胁迫条件下体重与形态特征的初步研究

在海南的正常温度下,四眼斑水龟(Sacalia quadriocellata)在人工饲养环境中无冬眠现象,也未观察到繁殖行为。为研究冬眠对四眼斑水龟繁殖的影响,于2004年12月~2005年2月对其进行低温胁迫实验。选取29只成体四眼斑水龟分成2组,实验组9♀5♂共14只进行低温处理,在8·46±1·61℃干燥环境中保持32天;对照组10♀5♂共15只在正常条件下饲养。结果表明:低温胁迫后,实验组平均体重减小8·68±2·45%,雌雄差异不显著;雄性个体背甲宽从8·55±0·26cm减小到8·46±0·22cm,差异显著(P<0·05);雌性个体背甲长从12·97±0·80cm减小到12·94±0·81cm,差异显著(P<0·05);雌雄四眼斑水龟甲壳表面积相对低温胁迫前均减小;对照组龟养殖于常温下,甲壳无显著变化,两组龟体重变化量差异极显著(P<0·01)。影响失重率主要因素是胁迫时间,环境温度对失重呈显著线性正相关(r=0·811,P<0·05);形态特征的变化可能与繁殖机制、代谢有关。
