Effect of various types of sports on the pulmonary rheogram of young school age children

The pulmonary blood circulation of boys aged from 8 to 12 going in for swimming and wrestling has been studied by the rheographic method. It is found that the pulmonary rheogram of young sportsmen differs significantly from the one of non-sportsmen of the same age. The basic wave amplitude is larger, its elevation and fall angle is smaller, presystolic, systolic and diastolic parts are longer, rheographic systolic and diastolic indices as well as vascular wall elasticity index are higher, peripheral resistance of arterioles and cappilaries are lower in trained children. These values demonstrate a decrease in the pulmonary blood flow rate and an increase in its volume as well as improvement of the elastic-viscid properties of blood vessel walls. They also indicate the economy development of pulmonary circulation activity. The mentioned deviations are better expressed in young swimmers.     

LncRNA在蜜蜂级型分化中的功能研究

蜜蜂的级型分化被证实是由蜂王浆中的Royalactin决定,工蜂和蜂王幼虫在级型分化时编码基因的表达差异也被广泛研究.我们发现,在蜜蜂幼虫的级型分化过程中,lncRNA也有着显著的表达差异,因此认为,lncRNA也参与了蜜蜂的级型分化过程.进一步的分析显示,lncRNA可能通过影响上下游基因的转录和功能执行的方式,在蜜蜂早期发育的多细胞组织发育、神经系统发育和转录调控的过程中起到重要的调控作用.     

细菌视紫红质光循环中间体M412的动力学初探

采用紫外可见吸收光谱技术和闪光光解技术,初步观察了细菌视紫红质(BR)分子在宽pH范围(2.1～12.3)内的特征吸收峰以及M412的相对浓度和M412的慢成分半衰期的变化,并对其结构和光循环功能进行了讨论.紫外可见吸收光谱实验结果显示:pH=5.0～10.0时,BR最大特征吸收峰值约为568 nm;pH＜5.0时,BR最大特征吸收峰发生红移;pH＞10.0时,BR最大特征吸收峰发生蓝移.闪光动力学光谱结果显示:pH为7.3～9.5时,M412的相对浓度(M0)基本稳定在0.038左右;pH＜7.3时,M0逐渐减小;pH＞9.5时,M0明显上升,在pH=11.8时达到最大值0.1355,随后又快速下降.pH为2.1～7.3时,M412的慢成分半衰期(ts1/2)值在(4.1±1.1)ms左右;pH＞7.3时,ts1/2值急剧延长到40 677.4 ms.推测在高pH条件下,BR分子的光循环有新的路径和机理.
