昆明白小鼠胚胎干细胞分离与体外培养

为探索昆明白小鼠胚胎干细胞建系方法,将受孕4.5天的昆明白小鼠囊胚用免疫手术法去除滋胚层,然后将内细胞团(ICM)接种于胎鼠成纤维细胞饲养层上培养,形成的胚胎干细胞样集落用胰蛋白酶-EDTA消化法传代,培养后进行相差显微镜观察及碱性磷酸酶染色。结果饲养层上生长的ICM细胞呈典型的ES样细胞集落,传至第8代碱性磷酸酶染色呈强阳性。实验表明免疫手术法适用于昆明白小鼠ES细胞建系,获得的细胞集落具有ES细胞的主要生物学性状。     

BALB/c小鼠胚胎干细胞系建立的方法学探讨

以小鼠胚胎成纤维细胞（ME）为饲养层,以大鼠心脏细胞条件下培养基（RH－CM）为ES细胞培养基,全面、详尽地对BALB／c小鼠ES细胞的纱和培养方法进行了探讨,成功地建立了一套建立和培养BALB/c小鼠ES细胞系的新方法。这一培养条件不但有效地维持了ES细胞的未分化状态和正常二倍体核型,而且维持了其作为能性胚胎干细胞的一系列特征。实验设计了两种离散方法和两种浓度的消化兴,用来离散增殖的ICM和ICM离散后出现的ES集落。两种离散方法即“一次离散法”,和“多次离散法”,两种浓度的消化液即0．25％。Trypsin－0．04％。EDTA和．005％。Trypsin-0.888％EDTA;同时对ICM离散时机、RH－CM在BALB／c小鼠ES细胞建系和培养中作用进行了探讨。结果表明：在低浓度消化液作用下,采用“多次离散法”离散增殖4天的ICM和ES集落的方法建立BALC／c小鼠的ES细胞系是理想的;从细胞形态、集落形态、增殖生长能力、核型检测、碱性磷酸酶测定以及体内外分化能力表明,所建立的9个BALB/c小鼠ES细胞系符合小鼠胚胎干细胞的一系列特征。

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
