The effect of fertilizer application on farming of the seaweed Undaria pinnatifida (Laminariales, Phaeophyta)

A slow-release ammonium phosphate fertilizer coated with porous plastic was tested on Undaria pinnatifida (Harvey) Suringar as a possible solution to the nutrient deficiency in seawater that causes quality and yield deterioration in seaweed farming. The yield of U. pinnatifida within the fertilized area was 17–40% greater than that of the control area (unfertilized area). In addition, two harvests were possible per season and the quality of harvested U. pinnatifida was also better than that outside the fertilizer diffusion area. The released NH₄-N did not increase the concentration of NH₄-N outside the farming area. Therefore, this fertilizer increased yield and improved quality without causing water pollution.     

褐藻裙带菜孢子叶粗提物体外抗单纯疱疹病毒Ⅱ型活性研究

Assessing genetic identity of sporophytic offspring of the brown alga Undaria pinnatifida derived from mono‐crossing of gametophyte clones by use of amplified fragment length polymorphism and microsatellite markers

The haploid stage of gametophytes of the subtidal brown alga Undaria pinnatifida can be vegetatively propagated under favorable conditions. This unique characteristic makes it possible to establish independent gametophyte cell lines that are zoospore‐derived. Sporophytic offspring can be generated through hybridizing the male and female gametophytes, which are derived from different cell lines. Accumulated experiences in this and other species in Laminariales demonstrated the applicability of this novel way to breed desired strains for open‐sea cultivation. Sporophytic offspring originated from mono‐crossing of male and female gametophyte clones were shown to have similar morphological characteristics under identical ambient conditions. However, there has been no report to relate this similarity on molecular levels. In this report, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and microsatellite markers were used to analyze the genetic identity of sporophytic offspring of U. pinnatifida originated from two mono‐crossing lines (M1 and M2), two self‐breeding lines (S1 and S2) and one wild population (W). Totally 318 AFLP loci were revealed by use of 11 primer sets, of which 4.7%, 0.3%, 17.9%, 16.4% and 36.5% were polymorphic in M1, M2, S1, S2 and W, respectively. The pairwise genetic identity among the individuals of the same line was assessed. It was shown that offspring from mono‐crossing lines had a higher degree of identity (95.6–100%) than self‐breeding lines (87.7–98.4%) and the wild population (81.5–92.1%). Analysis by use of six microsatellite loci also revealed a higher genetic identity among individuals of the mono‐crossing line, further confirming the results of AFLP analysis. Results from this investigation support, on molecular levels, the novel way to produce and maintain strains in U. pinnatifida by use of different gametophyte cell lines.     

Lysozyme stimulates immunoglobulin production by human-human hybridoma and human peripheral blood lymphocytes

Lysozyme [EC 3.2.1.17] derived from hen egg white stimulated immunoglobulin production by human-human hybridoma, HB4C5 cells producing human lung cancer specific monoclonal IgM. IgM production by HB4C5 cells was enhanced more than 13-fold by the addition of lysozyme at 380 μg/ml in a serum-free medium. The immunoglobulin production stimulating effect of lysozyme was observed immediately after inoculation and maintained for 5 days. Lysozyme enhanced immunoglobulin production by the hybridoma line without growth promotion. This enzyme also accelerated IgM and IgG production of human peripheral blood lymphocytes 5.3-fold and 2.3-fold, respectively. These results suggest that lysozyme stimulates immunoglobuling production of not only specific hybridoma line, but also non-specific immunoglobulin producers. However, although the enzymatic activity of lysozyme was almost lost by heat-treatment at 100 °C for 30 min, the IPSF activity was retained. This fact suggests that IPSF activity of lysozyme does not come from its enzymatic activity or reaction products. All these findings clearly indicate that lysozyme has a novel function as an immunoglobulin production stimulating factor. GAPDH - glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase; Ig - immunoglobulin; IPSF - immunoglobulin production stimulating factor; PBL - peripheral blood lymphocytes; HPLC - high-performance liquid chromatography.

连翘酯苷对小鼠脾脏淋巴细胞体外增殖与分泌功能的影响

目的分析连翘酯苷（FS）对小鼠脾脏T和B淋巴细胞增殖、分泌NO和TNF-α的影响,初步探讨其免疫调节作用机制。方法无菌操作分离小鼠脾脏,制备脾脏细胞并用含10%胎牛血清的RPMI 1640培养,在培养液中分别加入刺激剂刀豆蛋白（ConA）和脂多糖（LPS）以及不同浓度40、80、160μg/mL的FS共培养不同时间,采用MTT法检测T和B淋巴细胞的吸光度变化,ELISA和Griess法分别检测细胞分泌TNF-α和NO的水平。结果低浓度和中浓度FS对ConA诱导T淋巴细胞24 h和48 h后细胞增殖和存活率明显提高,诱导时间延长至72 h后FS明显抑制细胞转化;低浓度FS对LPS诱导脾脏B淋巴细胞24 h后细胞增殖和生存率显著提高;FS促进小鼠脾脏T和B淋巴细胞分泌NO;FS促进B淋巴细胞分泌TNF-α,中浓度FS促进T淋巴细胞分泌TNF-α而高浓度反而抑制其分泌。此外,FS对环磷酰胺（CY）处理小鼠的脾脏淋巴细胞体外增殖有明显影响,对细胞NO分泌影响不显著。结论结果提示FS可能通过影响小淋巴细胞增殖和细胞因子分泌而调节免疫细胞功能。     

Differential effect of opioids on immunoglobulin production by lymphocytes isolated from Peyer's patches and spleen

The mucosal immune system plays an important role in blocking the penetration of invasive organisms into various mucosal surfaces. Evidence now suggests neuroendocrine peptide hormones have immunomodulatory properties, including the ability to alter mucosal immunity. The potential for opioid compounds and corticotropic hormone (ACTH) to modulate mucosal immune function was investigated. We have found beta-endorphin, ACTH, and naltrindole (delta-class opioid receptor antagonist) to significantly suppress concanavalin A-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocyte immunoglobulin production of IgA, IgG, and IgM isotypes. Oxymorphindole, a delta class opioid receptor agonist, significantly decreased IgM but not IgA or IgG production by the mitogen-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Both oxymorphindole and naltrindole modestly reduced interleukin-2 receptor expression of concanavalin A- (Con A)-stimulated splenic and Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Neither compound appreciably affected immunoglobulin production by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Collectively, these results indicate stress-related peptides such as ACTH and opioids may be involved in the regulation of immunoglobulin synthesis by Peyer's patch lymphocytes.     

Separation of T and B lymphocytes from various mouse strains by density gradient electrophoresis

T and B mouse spleen lymphocytes were separated by density gradient electrophoresis on the basis of their surface charge. In all strains examined, the T lymphocytes were found in the high mobility fractions and the B in the low. The T and B cells were separated completely in most fractions, with some overlapping in the middle. Significant differences were found in the electrophoretic distribution profiles between the strains: C57BL/6j, C57BL/10j, (BALB/cXC57BL/6j)F₁, and all the following: B₆·C-H-2^d/cBy (congenic to C57BL/6j), BALB/c, CBA/H/T6j, C57BL/10Sn, and C3H. The C57BL/6j and the (BALB/cXC57BL/6j)F₁ cells appear more heterogeneous as far as electrophoretic mobility is concerned. Almost all the other strains give two major peaks. Moreover, the high mobility areas are less populated in the C57BL/6j and the (BALB/cXC57BL/6j)F₁ animals than in all the others. The above differences were found consistently when cells prepared by different methods were electrophoresed. It is concluded that the surface charge of lymphocytes may be genetically determined. Possible dependency on the H-2 complex or non-H-2 areas is discussed.     

The effect of cyclic adenosine 3′,5′-monophosphate on the uptake of estradiol by the neonatal mouse uterus

Summary Uterine tissue from neonatal mice was incubated in vitro at 0° C for 1 h in a medium containing 1×10^-8 M ³H-estradiol with or without 1×10^-4M dibutyryl cyclic AMP. In some incubations the temperature was raised to 37° C for 15 min after incubation in the cold, in others the temperature was kept at 0° C during this 15 min period. The tissue was frozen in liquid propane cooled in liquid nitrogen, sectioned at 2 or 4 microns, and autoradiograms prepared according to the dry-mount procedure. cAMP increases the cellular uptake of ³H-estradiol in uterine tissue. After rising the temperature to 37° C, grains appeared over the nuclei. cAMP at low temperature increased the cellular uptake of ³H-estradiol, but the grains were not associated with the nuclei. In the autoradiograms the grain number above the epithelium was markedly less than above the stroma.This work has been supported by grants from the Norwegian Research Council for Science and the Humanities, and from the Norwegian Cancer Society (Landsforeningen mot Kreft)     

Inhibitory effect of fucoidan from brown alga Fucus evanescens on the spread of infection induced by tobacco mosaic virus in tobacco leaves of two cultivars

The effect of fucoidan from the brown alga Fucus evanescens on the spread of infection induced by tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) was investigated in the leaves of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) of two cultivars (Ksanti-nk and Samsun). In the leaves of cv. Ksanti-nk inoculated with a mixture of TMV preparation (2 μg/ml) and fucoidan (1 mg/ml), the number of local necrotic lesions induced by the virus decreased by more than 90% as compared with the leaves inoculated with the virus alone. In tobacco leaves of cv. Samsun, virulence and the concentration of the virus 3 days after inoculation with the same mixture of TMV and fucoidan were by 62 and 66%, respectively, lower than in the leaves inoculated with TMV alone. As the infection spread, the inhibitory effect of fucoidan decreased. When the leaves were treated with fucoidan before and after the inoculation with TMV, its antiviral activity was less pronounced than when a mixture of the virus and the polysaccharide was used as inoculum. Electron microscopic investigation of TMV mixed with fucoidan often showed agglutinated virions. The highest virulence of the mixture (TMV preparation, 12 μg/ml, plus fucoidan, 1 mg/ml) was observed upon its twofold dilution, and after that it decreased. It was concluded that, when the leaves were inoculated with the mixture of TMV and fucoidan, the latter affected not only the plant but the virus as well. Treatment of tobacco leaves, cv. Ksanti-nk, with actinomycin D (10 μg/ml) 24 h before the inoculation with TMV almost completely suppressed the effect of fucoidan, indicating that fucoidan acted at a gene level.     

Partial sequence of immunoglobulin light-chain isolated from purified plasma membranes of mouse myeloma cells.

Plasma membranes were prepared from MOPC-321 mouse myeloma cells incubated with [³H]leucine. The L-chain from the purified plasma membranes was isolated, it was subjected to radioactive sequence analysis, and leucine was found at positions 4, 11 and 15. This sequence matches with that of the mature L-chain (Leu at positions 4, 11, 15, etc.) and differs from that of the L-chain precursor that contains a hydrophobic N-terminal extra piece (Leu at positions 6, 7, 8, 11, 12, 13, 24, 31, 35, etc.). This result establishes mature L-chain in the surface membrane of plasmacytoma cells.     

The suppressive effect of Mekabu fucoidan on an attachment of Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts to the intestinal epithelial cells in neonatal mice

The present study was done to investigate the effects of fucoidan and de-sulfated fucoidan isolated from the sporophyll of Undaria pinnatifida on the C. parvum adhesion to the cultured human intestinal cells and on the C. parvum infection in neonatal mice. The C. parvum adhesion to human Intestinal 407 cells was significantly suppressed by a low dose (1 micro g/ml) of Mekabu fucoidan (1 micro g/ml) (approx. 20.5 oocysts, p<0.0001), but not by de-sulfated fucoidan (approx. 138.2 oocysts), as compared with that (approx. 121.0 oocysts) of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). The in vivo experiments presented here revealed that C. parvum oocysts in the fucoidan-treated mice was reduced nearly one fifth (approx. 5.4x10(4) oocysts, p<0.02) of the total number of oocysts (approx. 3.0x10(5)) in mice treated with PBS, but no significant effect of de-sulfated fucoidan was observed. These results show that (i) fucoidan effectively inhibits the growth of C. parvum in mice; and (ii) the ester sulfate of fucoidan is an active site to prevent the adhesion of C. parvum to the intestinal epithelial cells. Finally, we concluded that fucoidan might inhibit cryptosporidiosis through the direct binding of fucoidan to the C. parvum-derived functional mediators in the intestinal epithelial cells in neonatal mice.

The effect of oestradiol on the DNA synthesis in neonatal mouse uterus and cervix

Summary (³H)-Thymidine autoradiography was used to study the DNA synthesis in the stroma and epithelium in the uterus proper and the uterine cervix of neonatal mice treated with oestradiol. It was found that in the epithelium of the uterus proper the DNA synthesis is stimulated between 6 and 12 h after injection of oestradiol and decreases again at 18 h. In the stroma of the uterus proper the DNA synthesis is increased 18 h after oestradiol injection.In the epithelium and stroma of the uterine cervix the DNA synthesis decreases from 5 h and is strongly depressed 18 h after oestradiol treatment.This work has been supported by grants from the Norwegian Research Council for Science and the Humanities and from the Norwegian Cancer Society (Landsforeningen mot Kreft).     

AdipoRon对小鼠骨骼肌细胞胰岛素敏感性的影响及其机制

目的：观察脂联素受体激动剂AdipoRon对小鼠成肌细胞株（C2C12）胰岛素敏感性的影响,并探讨其作用机制。方法：使用马血清将C2C12诱导分化为成肌细胞,分为6组（9个复孔）：空白对照组、AdipoRon （脂联素受体激动剂）高剂量组、AdipoRon低剂量组、胰岛素组以及AdipoRon低剂量+PI3K （磷脂酰肌醇3激酶）抑制剂组和胰岛素+PI3K抑制剂组,作用12 h,收集上清检测葡萄糖消耗量,使用CCK8测定细胞增殖。六孔板中将C2C12诱导分化为肌管细胞,加入药物作用12 h,并用RT-PCR法检测GLUT4的mRNA水平。结果：与空白对照组相比,AdipoRon高剂量组、AdipoRon低剂量组、胰岛素组耗糖量均有所增加,具有统计学意义（P<0.05）。加入PI3K抑制剂组后,耗糖量与空白对照组无统计学意义。与空白对照组相比,AdipoRon高剂量组、AdipoRon低剂量组、胰岛素组细胞均有增殖,但只有胰岛素组具有统计学意义（P<0.05）。与对照空白组相比,AdipoRon高剂量组、AdipoRon低剂量组、胰岛素组GLUT4mRNA水平均有所提高,具有统计学意义（P<0.05）。加入PI3K抑制剂组后,GLUT4mRNA水平与空白对照组无统计学意义。结论：AdipoRon能够不影响细胞增殖的情况下增加葡萄糖的消耗量,这可能是通过提高胰岛素敏感性发挥作用的,但具体机制尚待进一步的研究。

The role of major histocompatibility complex expression on head and neck cancer cells in the induction of autologous cytotoxic T lymphocytes

Using head and neck tumors, we studied the role of HLA class I and DR antigens on tumor cells in cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) induction. Expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigens was investigated by two-color flow cytometry analysis and for this study we used the tumor cells, over 50% of which expressed both HLA class I and DR antigens on their surface. In seven cases, tumor cells were divided into three groups according to the specificity of monoclonal antibodies (mAb) to MHC to study the role of MHC antigens on tumor cells in CTL induction: one was not blocked (MHC double-positive tumor), a second was blocked by anti-class I mAb (class-Ingative DR-positive tumor) and third was blocked by anti-DR mAb (class-I-positive DR-negative tumor). Subsequently, these tumors were used to stimulate an autologous mixed lymphocyte/tumor cell culture for 5 days (MLTC) followed by further cultivation with interleukin-2 for 12 days. The induced autologous tumor killer cells were most cytotoxic when non-treated tumors, which consist mainly of cells that are both HLA-class I and DR-positive, were used as stimulator cells. When the tumor cells blocked by anti-DR mAb were used as stimulators, autologous tumor killer activity was lower than that induced by tumor cells blocked by anti-class-I mAb. Moreover, cytolysis by autologous tumor killer cells induced by stimulation of non-treated tumor cells was blocked during the effector phase, 26.6%–42.3% and 32.7%–53.8% by anti-class-I and anti-DR mAb respectively, suggesting that majority of the autologous tumor killer cells are MHC-restricted CD8⁺ or CD4⁺ CTL. These results suggest that both MHC class I and class II antigens on head and neck tumor cells play a critical role in inducing CTL.     

The effect of selected antibacterial antibiotics on production of interferon gamma (IFN-G) by mouse T lymphocytes stimulated by Listeria monocytogenes

The aim of the study was to determine the influence of certain antibiotics on the production of IFN-gamma by mouse lymphocytes T after four days incubation with Listeria monocytogenes. The level of mouse IFN-gamma was determined by ELISA method (Inter Test-gamma Mouse IFN-gamma Kit, Genzyme). The strongest immunosuppression effect was demonstrated using rifampicin (39 ng/ml IFN-gamma) (Control: 123 +/- 29 ng/ml IFN-gamma, p < 0.05). Lower immunosuppression effects were observed also with cephradine (54 ng/ml IFN-gamma), amikacin (56 ng/ml IFN-gamma) and ticarcillin (83 ng/ml). The obtained results show that all tested cephalosporins (cephamandole, cefotaxime, cephradine) and aminogllycosides (gentamicin, streptomycin, amicacin) inhibit production of IFN-gamma by mouse lymphocytes T. The influence of penicillin G and ampicillin, as well as, erythromycin and lincomycin on the production IFN-gamma was not observed. Our results suggest that rifampicin, ticarcillin, cephalosporins and aminoglycosides act as inhibitors of production IFN-gamma.
