人类情绪或可影响干细胞生长

<正>南方医科大学南方医院杨默课题组发现,影响人类情绪和抑郁症的血清素与骨髓干细胞的生长分化及移植有密切关系。相关成果近日发表在《干细胞》杂志上。课题组根据研究结果提出:影响人类情绪与抑郁症的血清素与骨髓干细胞的生长分化及移植有密切关系。情绪低落可导致血清素下降,引起干细胞功能受损,影响损伤细胞修复和血细胞再生,从而影响身体免疫功能。这是医学界首次从科学角度证实人类情绪与干细胞生长之间

兰州唐古特白刺根际微生物分离鉴定

【目的】从兰州唐古特白刺根际分离得到对植物有潜在促生效果的功能微生物，为研发相关菌种制剂的研究奠定基础。【方法】通过平板划线法从其根际分离纯化出6株细菌，并对菌株进行形态特征观察、革兰氏染色等一系列生理生化试验。用藜麦检测各菌株的促生功能，并对具有优良促生作用的1个菌株16S rRNA基因进行分子鉴定及基因草图绘制。【结果】根据生化鉴定结果，6株细菌分别属于不动杆菌属(Acinetobacter)、土壤杆菌属(Agrobacterium)、类芽孢杆菌属(Paenibacillus)、芽孢杆菌属(Bacillus)、鞘氨醇单胞菌属(Sphingomonas)和假单胞菌属(Pseudomonas)。其中，16S rRNA基因鉴定BC4属于肠杆菌属(Enterobacter)，具有较好的促生效果。【结论】BC4具有较好的促生效果，为兰州唐古特白刺菌种资源的开发和利用提供了一定的理论依据。     

联合固氮菌Alcaligen faecalislin泌铵突变体离子不选育及鉴定

Ｎ＾＋注入野生型菌株（Ａｌｃａｌｉｇｅｎ ｆａｅｃａｌｉｓ １．４８８），筛选出抗５１．６ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ乙二胺的泌铵突变株ＥＭ１１０５，它以ＫＮＯ３为氮源时，培养２１ｈ泌铵量可达到１．１０ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ。研究了该突变株在不同氮源下的培养特性，推断为铵载体缺陷型。     

A Putative Calcium-Permeable Cyclic Nucleotide-Gated Channel, CNGC18, Regulates Polarized Pollen Tube Growth

A tip-focused Ca^2＋ gradient is tightly coupled to polarized pollen tube growth, and tip-localized influxes of extracellular Ca^2＋ are required for this process. However the molecular identity and regulation of the potential Ca^2＋ channels remains elusive. The present study has implicated CNGC18 （cyclic nucleotide-gated channel 18） in polarized pollen tube growth, because its overexpression induced wider and shorter pollen tubes. Moreover, CNGC18 overexpression induced depolarization of pollen tube growth was suppressed by lower extracellular calcium （[Ca^2＋]ex）. CNGC18-yellow fluorescence protein （YFP） was preferentially localized to the apparent post-Golgi vesicles and the plasma membrane （PM） in the apex of pollen tubes. The PM localization was affected by tip-localized ROP1 signaling. Expression of wild type ROP1 or an active form of ROP1 enhanced CNGC18-YFP localization to the apical region of the PM, whereas expression of RopGAP1 （a ROP1 deactivator） blocked the PM localization. These results support a role for PM-Iocalized CNGC18 in the regulation of polarized pollen tube growth through its potential function in the modulation of calcium influxes.
