泽蛙雌核单倍体几种同工酶基因表达的研究

本研究用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶垂直平板电泳,比较泽蛙雌核生殖单倍体和泽蛙二倍体在鳃盖闭合期的乳酸脱氢酶同工酶(LDH)、苹果酸脱氢酶同工酶(MDH)、葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶同工酶(G-6-PDH)和酯酶同工酶(EST)的表型。实验表明,单倍体的上述同工酶区带数和活力与同胚期的二倍体比较,差异甚大。由此,作者认为,泽蛙单倍体问工酶基因的表达异常是由于缺少另一套染色体基因的相互作用。     

红螯螯虾胚胎发育期主要消化酶和同工酶的活性变化

采用生物化学方法测定了红螯螯虾(Cherax quadricarinatus)胚胎发育各期主要消化酶(胃蛋白酶、胰蛋白酶、淀粉酶、纤维素酶和脂肪酶)的比活力及主要同工酶(乳酸脱氢酶、苹果酸脱氢酶、葡萄糖-6-磷酸脱氢酶和酯酶)的活力。结果显示,5种消化酶各自表现出不同的变化模式,胃蛋白酶和胰蛋白酶的比活力早期均逐渐上升,到发育后期胃蛋白酶出现快速下降,而胰蛋白酶却仍保持较高水平;淀粉酶比活力呈“V”字型变化趋势,晚期活性较高;纤维素酶和脂肪酶的比活力则均较低。4种同工酶酶谱随胚胎的发育渐趋复杂,酶活性也随之增强。结果表明,消化酶和同工酶活力的高低均受其基因的调控,并随胚胎发育适时表达,为胚胎组织、器官和系统的形成以及未来仔虾的开口摄食提供物质保证。

Partial purification and characterization of acetylcholinesterase isozymes from adult bovine filarial parasite Setaria cervi

Filariasis is a major health problem, affecting millions of people in tropical and sub-tropical regions of the world. The isolation and characterization of parasite-specific enzyme targets is essential for developing effective control measures against filariasis. Acetylcholinesterase (AchE, E.C. 3.1.1.7), an important enzyme of neuromuscular transmission is found in a number of helminths including filarial parasites and may be playing a role in host-parasite interactions. Earlier, we demonstrated the presence of two isozymes of AchE, different from the host enzyme in the human (Brugia malayi) and bovine (Setaria cervi) filarial parasites. In the present study, two isozymes of AchE (pAchE1 and pAchE2) were isolated from S. cervi adults and characterized biochemically and immunochemically. The AchE was partially purified on Con-A Sepharose column and then subjected to preparative polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) for separation of the isozymes. The AchE activity was localized by the staining of gel and the isozymes were isolated from the PAGE strips by electroelution. Both isozymes preferentially utilized acetylcholine iodide as substrate and were strongly inhibited by the true AchE inhibitor (BW284c51), suggesting that they were true AchE. The polyclonal antibodies produced against the isozymes showed significant cross-reactivity with B. malayi AchE, but not against the host enzyme. These findings suggested that both the isozymes were biochemically (in terms of their substrate specificity and inhibitor sensitivity) and immunochemically similar, but different from the host enzyme.     

Enzyme activities in fish spermatozoa with focus on lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes from herring Clupea harengus

The activities of NAD- and NADP-dependent dehydrogenases and creatine kinase were compared in extracts of spermatozoa from herring (Clupea harengus), carp (Cyprinus carpio) and catfish (Clarias gariepinus). The activity of malic enzyme in herring spermatozoa was approximately 5 and 36 times higher than in carp and catfish spermatozoa. In contrast, lactate dehydrogenase activity in herring spermatozoa was very low. Herring spermatozoa possess two isoenzymes of lactate dehydrogenase: LDH-A(2)B(2) and LDH-B(4). Both herring spermatozoa isozymes were separated, partly purified and characterized by kinetic and physico-chemical properties. The pH optima and K(m) values for pyruvate reduction were 7.1, 7.25, 7.6 and 0.22, 0.07, 0.09 mM for LDH-A(4), LDH-A(2)B(2) and LDH-B(4), respectively. The isoenzymes also have different thermostabilities. High activity of malic enzyme in herring spermatozoa suggests adaptation to metabolism at high oxygen tension.     

鳙鱼同工酶发育遗传学研究

采用淀粉或聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳法分析鳙鱼早期发育阶段(从未受精卵到卵黄吸尽期)及成体不同组织(脑、眼、心、肌、肾、肝)中六种同工酶(LDH,MDH,IDH,ADH,SDH,EST)的分化表达模式。鳙鱼同工酶基因的表达具有明显的组织特异性。早期发育阶段,ADH和SDH均无染色活性;LDH、MDH和IDH具有不同的发育变化谱式,而EST酶谱在整个早期发育阶段均无明显变化。与鲢、草鱼相比,鳙鱼早期发育过程中胚胎Ldh-A基因激活的时间被推迟。上述结果可为鳙鱼种群的生化遗传结构分析以及鳙鱼的人工育种提供基础资料。     

Effect of stress on the acetylcholinesterase activity of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis in the rat

Acetylcholinesterase (AchE, EC 3.1.1.7) activity was determined in cerebral cortex, hypothalamus, adenohypophysis and adrenal gland in response to acute and chronic stress. Chronic exposure of animals to cold stress (at 4 degrees C for 7 days) resulted in significant decline of AchE activity in all tissues studied. Similar results were obtained when animals were exposed to acute immobilization and cold stress (at 4 degrees C) simultaneously. In another experiment, animals were treated with 2 mg/kg of corticosterone prior to AchE determination. Corticosterone administration resulted in a significant decline in AchE activity of the cortex, the hypothalamus and the adrenal but failed to affect the adenohypophysis AchE level. Exposing adrenalectomized animals to acute stress resulted in no significant changes in the cortex and the hypothalamus but caused a significant decline in AchE of the adenohypophysis. It was concluded from this study that corticosterone might mediate the stress effect on AchE activity.     

四类不同倍性鲫鱼在胚胎发育期间同工酶基因表达的比较分析

Isozyme zymograms of esterase (EST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), malate dehydrogenase (MDH) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were analysed by polyacrylamide gradient gel electrophoresis at different developmental stages of embryogenesis in 4 types of various ploidy crucian carp embryos, including haploids, diploids, natural triploids, and multiple tetraploids, and 2 types of haploid and diploid common carp embryos. Haploid embryos of crucian carp (Carassius auratus) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio) were produced by treating eggs with UV-irradiated milt from blunt snout bream (Megalobrama amblycephala). Natural triploid embryos were obtained from the eggs of gynogenetic silver crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) inseminated with milt from red common carp. Multiple tetraploid embryos were also produced by gynogenesis from eggs of the newly discovered multiple tetraploid females inseminated with milt from red common carp. Gradient gel electrophoresis indicated that the band types and staining intensity of 4 isozymes expressed in haploid embryos of crucian carp and red common carp were similar to that in the correlative diploid embryos. In natural triploid silver crucian carp embryos, the zymograms of MDH and SOD isozymes were identical with that of diploid crucian carp embryos, but the EST and LDH isozymes manifested more new enzyme bands in comparison with diploid embryos. The corresponding expressed products of some bands in the triploid embryos, such as EST5 and EST6, could be observed also in red common carp embryos, which provided evidence for hybrid origin about the gynogenetic fish. The multiple tetraploids incorporated one foreign genome of red common carp, therefore, the effects of genes from the foreign genome could be observed in the multiple tetraploid embryos. Gene expression of the isozymes in the tetraploid embryos was somewhat similar to that in hybrids. Owing to interaction of triploid silver crucian carp genomes and common carp haploid genome, some isozyme bands, such as EST5 and EST6, changed in quantity, and some bands increased, such as s-SOD1, s-SOD2, s-SOD3 and s-SOD4 in the tetraploid embryos. Moreover, the heterogeneity was revealed among embryos developed from gynogenetic eggs of 3 different multiple tetraploid individuals.     

Toxicity of cypermethrin in Labeo rohita fingerlings: biochemical,enzymatic and haematological consequences

The effect of exposure to sub-lethal concentrations of cypermethrin, a synthetic pyrethroid pesticide, on biochemical parameters of muscle, blood and enzyme activities in brain, liver and kidney of the Indian major carp, Labeo rohita was studied. The sub-lethal exposure studies were done for up to 45 days at 1/10 and 1/50 of 96 h LC(50) of cypermethrin. The 96 h LC(50) was found to be 0.139 ppm. RNA levels decreased while DNA levels were elevated. Acid phosphatase was unchanged while alkaline phosphatase was depleted. Brain acetylcholinesterase activity was decreased significantly (P<0.05) over a period of 45 days at both cypermethrin concentrations. Lactate dehydrogenase activity in brain and liver was elevated, but inhibited in kidney. Succinate dehydrogenase and ATPase activities were depleted in brain, kidney and liver. There was a decrease in serum protein level over control at both concentrations of the pyrethroid. Blood glucose level and total leucocytes were elevated compared with controls at either concentration from day 15 to day 45. Haemoglobin percentage and total erythrocytes decreased in both sub-lethal concentrations. Extracts of the herb Datura stramonium were effective in countering the toxicity of this pesticide. Our data suggest that sub-lethal exposure of cypermethrin alters the biochemical, haematological parameters and enzymes of organs tissue and exert stress on the fish. Plant extracts may be useful in counteracting some of these effects.     

草鱼同工酶发育遗传学研究——Ⅱ.早期发育过程中的同工酶分析

采用淀粉凝胶电泳技术研究了草鱼早期发育过程中(受精后0—200小时)6种同工酶系统(LDH、MDH、GDH、ADH、IDH、EST)的表达谱式。除了ADH以外,其余5种同工酶系统均具有明显的发育变化谱式。根据早期发育过程中同工酶的变化谱式及其组织分布,草鱼的同工酶可分为三大类型:(1)在未受精卵及早期发育过程中一直存在,并常有较广泛的组织分布;(2)未受精卵及早期发育过程中均不存在,一般仅分布于少数几种组织中;(3)未受精卵及胚胎发育早期不存在,直到早期发育过程中某一特定时期才开始出现。

Rat brain glycolysis regulation by estradiol-17 beta.

The effect of estradiol-17 beta on the activities of glycolytic enzymes from female rat brain was studied. The following enzymes were examined: hexokinase (HK, EC 2.7.1.1), phosphofructokinase (PFK, EC 2.7.1.11), aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13), glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12), phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3), phosphoglycerate mutase (EC 2.7.5.3), enolase (EC 4.2.1.11) and pyruvate kinase (PK, EC 2.7.1.40). The activities of HK (soluble and membrane-bound), PFK and PK were increased after 4 h of hormone treatment, while the others remained constant. The changes in activity were not seen in the presence of actinomycin D. The significant rise of the activities of the key glycolytic enzymes was also observed in the cell culture of mouse neuroblastoma C1300 treated with hormone. Only three of the studied isozymes, namely, HKII, B4 and K4 were found to be estradiol-sensitive for HK, PFK and PK, respectively. The results obtained suggest that rat brain glycolysis regulation by estradiol is carried out in neurons due to definite isozymes induction.
