Control of glucose metabolism in the perinatal period

The central importance of glucose as a fuel for energy metabolism and growth of the fetus is clear as is the role of insulin in coordinating its utilisation by many fetal tissues. What is less clear is the qunatitative nature of the interaction between the fetus and placenta in organising glucose metabolism. Increasingly there is evidence that the fetus coordinates some of the supply of glucose to the placenta and that this is particularly important when uterine blood flow is reduced. It is unclear how this is regulated, but substrate cycles of glucose and lactate appear to make a significant contribution to carbohydrate metabolism in fetus and placenta. Another area as yet unresolved in the control of fetal glucose metabolism is the coordination of the changes that occur around the time of birth. Notable of these is the activation of glycogen mobilisation and of glucose synthesis and changes in the setting of glucose regulatory mechanism. These are briefly reviewed.

Antidiuretic mechanism in Rhodnius prolixus (Stal, 1859) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae)

An antidiuretic mechanism is proposed for Rhodnius prolixus, whose activity is manifested when the diuretic phase has terminated and is maintained until the insect has fed again. Presumably this mechanism acts at the level of the proximal rectal sphincter and is inhibited by ingestion, mechanical distension of the gut and central disinhibition by decapitation. It is suggested that the antidiuretic activity is maintained by the nervous system and is modified when there is distention of the gut or when the nervous signal is interrupted by decapitation. It is demonstrated that the excretion of urine in R. prolixus is not controlled exclusively by the diuretic hormone, but rather that factors not linked to the haemolymph maintain the insects in a diuretic or nondiuretic state.     

山西省种子植物多样性分布格局与环境关系的研究

采用除趋势对应分析(DCA)、典范对应分析(CCA)对山西省12个区域的种子植物多样性及区系地理成分的分析表明,全省种子植物多样性格局可分为3类:第1类为山西省西部和北部山地,热量相对较低,海拔较高,降水随海拔升高而增加,气候垂直变化明显,小生境类型较多,分类强度大,区系成分中以北温带、旧世界温带属占绝对优势。第2类为山西中部地区,地势相对较低,水热条件中等,北温带成分仍为优势种,但旧世界温带分布属和泛热带分布属的比例增加。第3类为山西南部和东南部山区,降水量相对较高,但温度也高,蒸发量大,属的区系成分中以北温带成分为优势,但第二优势成分为泛热带亚洲成分,与前2类地区相比,热带成分明显增加。     

扬子鳄视觉器官组织学研究

本文用光镜和电镜研究了扬子鳄(Alligator sinensis)的组织学,同时测量了其眼球的一些光学参数.扬子鳄眼球呈扁圆球形,角膜径与球径的比值为1:1.44;晶状体与角膜的比值为1:1.40。角膜内具鲍氏膜;虹膜内的括约肌、睫状体内的睫状肌均属横纹肌,视细胞椭圆体内线粒体嵴突与线粒体长轴相平行,这与报道的其它鳄类不同。虹膜内未见扩瞳肌纤维,角膜缘缺巩膜小骨片,晶状体环垫薄,因而其视觉调节能力仍然很弱。视网膜中视细胞由视杆细胞、单锥细胞、双锥细胞组成,其中以视杆细胞占多数。视细胞与神经节细胞核比值平均为2.5:1,表明扬子鳄的组织结构与其弱光视觉相适应。

Oxidation of glycine by Phaseolus leghaemoglobin with associated catabolic reactions at the haem.

Leghaemoglobin from the root nodules of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) reacts in alkaline glycine solutions as a glycine oxidase in a reaction that may also be regarded as a coupled oxidation. Leghaemoglobin is reduced to the ferrous form by glycinate, the oxygen complex is formed, and finally the haem is attacked to yield a green reaction product. Glycine is simultaneously oxidized to glyoxylate, and hydrogen peroxide is generated. The initial velocity of the formation of the green product is proportional to the concentrations of leghaemoglobin and glycine, and the optimum pH for the reaction is 10.2. The green product is not formed if carbon monoxide, azide of imidazole is bound to the haem, whereas oxidation of glycine to glyoxylate is not inhibited by azide and not essentially by carbon monoxide. Haem breakdown is activated by digestion of leghaemoglobin by carboxypeptidase, and partly inhibited by catalase and superoxide dismutase.     

Ultrastructural organization of the ocelloide of Nematodinium. Phylogenetic aspect of the evolution of Warnowiidae Lindemann dinoflagellates photoreceptor (author's transl)

In this study, more details of the different parts of the "ocelloide" of Nematodinium are given. The "hyalosome" which has a radial symmetry is made of endoplasmic reticulum, except the mitochondrial layer. There is only one constrictor ring and only a beginning of the periocellar gallery. The basal sheet on which the crystalline lens lies is a local differentiation of the cortical layer which is observed on the ceiling of the ocellar camera. This camera is related to the intercingular sulcus. There is also an ocellar fiber. The "melanosome" which is made of a double membrane and of many couples of thylakoids is flattened dorso-ventrally. The structure of the retina is similar to that observed in the other Warnowiidae. The pigmented ring is rather well developed and is in continuity with the upper part of the retina. Owing to the simpler organization of its ocelloide, Nematodinium is situated before the genera Warnowia and Erythropsidinium in the evolutionary series.     

Morphological appraisal of Collembola phylogeny with special emphasis on Poduromorpha and a test of the aquatic origin hypothesis

Phylogenetic relationships within Collembola were determined through the cladistic analysis of 131 morphological characters and 67 exemplar taxa representing the major families of the group, with special emphasis on Poduromorpha. The results show that the order Poduromorpha is monophyletic and the sister group to the remaining Collembola, with Entomobryomorpha monophyletic and the sister group to the clade Neelipleona + Symphypleona. In Entomobryomorpha, Actaletidae is the sister group of the remaining families. In Poduromorpha, Tullbergiinae is monophyletic as well as Onychiurinae and the group Tetrodontophorinae + Onychiurinae which is the sister group of the remaining Poduromorpha; Tetrodontophorinae is paraphyletic; Onychiuridae is polyphyletic; Isotogastruridae is not an intermediate between Poduromorpha and Entomobryomorpha, it is the sister group of Tullbergiinae; Odontellidae is monophyletic and the sister group to the clade Neanuridae + Brachystomellidae; in Neanuridae, Frieseinae and the group Pseudachorutinae + Morulinae + Neanurinae are monophyletic; Morulinae is the sister group of Neanurinae; Pseudachorutinae is paraphyletic; Hypogastruridae is polyphyletic; Podura aquatica (Poduridae) is not 'primitive', it clusters with the genera Xenylla and Paraxenylla in Hypogastruridae. On the basis of these relationships and the position of the aquatic species, the most parsimonious hypothesis is a terrestrial edaphic origin for the springtails.

Two types of hormone-responsive adenylate cyclase in the rat liver

We have demonstrated the existence of two types of hormone-responsive adenylate cyclase in the isolated perfused rat liver. One, less abundant, is linked to glycogenolysis and the other is not. Glucagon stimulates mainly the glycogenolysis-linked fraction and, to a lesser extent, the fraction which is not linked to glycogenolysis. The suppressive effect of insulin is specific for the glucagon-responsive adenylate cyclase and is inhibited by 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (IBMX). However, this mechanism can explain only partly the ability of insulin to suppress glycogenolysis, and is not observed when cAMP is increased sufficiently by glucagon. Secretin-responsive adenylate cyclase is not linked to glycogenolysis and is suppressed specifically by oxymetazoline. The capacity of this suppressive effect is large and not inhibited by IBMX. These results suggest that there is a functional compartmentalization of cAMP within the hepatocyte or among hepatocytes.

Homology and function in the wings of Heteroptera

Abstract. The homology of veins and other wing characters in Heteroptera is reviewed in the light of palaeontology and new functional studies. A cladogram is given for the higher taxa of Hemiptera. It is probable that the vannus is an autapomorphy of Auchenorrhyncha+Heteropteroidea; that the leading edge vein of heteropteran fore- and hindwings is C+Sc; that Rs cannot be distinguished from R; that the hamus is part of M; that the glochis is a secondary structure. The difficulty of defining a vein is stressed. The functional significance of the hemielytron, cuneal fracture and longitudinal flexion lines is discussed. A preliminary ground-plan for Heteroptera wings is presented.

The kinetics of hemolytic plaque formation. III. Inhibition of plaques by antigen.

Equations are presented which can be used to describe the inhibition of plaques by multifunctional antigen which binds γG antibody bivalently. The interaction is treated as a bimolecular reaction which is irreversible within the time of the experiment. It is shown that under these conditions the characteristics of the inhibition curve, and their relationship to kinetic and thermodynamic parameters are strongly dependent upon how antibody interacts with RBCs. When the epitope coating is dense, multivalent attachment of antibody is likely and the interaction is considered irreversible. When the epitope coating is sparse, only rapid, reversible univalent attachment is considered and local equilibrium is assumed to hold.The first case leads to an abrupt inhibition curve whose position is determined by the forward rate constant and RBC density. The second case leads to broad asymmetric curves. For this situation the relation between the extent of inhibition and the affinity of the population is generally complicated and reliable affinity information is difficult to obtain. This is contrasted to results obtained previously for unifunctional inhibitors from which reliable affinity information can, in principle, be obtained. The results emphasize the need for carefully designed experiments if affinity information is to be obtained from inhibition studies.
