以大鼠成骨肉瘤细胞（ＵＭＲ１０６）为模型,研究了表皮生长因子（ＥＧＦ）对其受体酪氨酸蛋白激酶（ＴＰＫ）的调节作用。以本实验室从植物中提取纯化的二萜类活性物质（ＲＦＰ１３４）为诱导分化剂,观察了ＲＦＰ１３４对ＵＭＲ１０６细胞ＥＧＦ受体ＴＰＫ的活性和磷酸化作用的影响,并与ＲＡ和ＲＦＰ１３４＋ＲＡ处理细胞做了比较,结果显示ＥＧＦ与其受体结合后能激活ＴＰＫ,使ＴＰＫ活性增加２倍．ＲＦＰ１３４,ＲＡ,ＲＦＰ１３４＋ＲＡ处理细胞后,分别降低ＥＧＦ诱导的受体ＴＰＫ活性５０％,４３％,５５％,降低磷酸化ＴＰＫ含量５５％,３６％,５３％。从结果中发现无ＥＧＦ刺激的细胞也具有受体ＴＰＫ磷酸化作用,用ＲＦＰ１３４,ＲＡ,ＲＦＰ１３４＋ＲＡ处理细胞,分别降低受体磷酸化ＴＰＫ含量５９％,４０％,５７％,而且我们发现用ＥＧＦ诱导的细胞受体ＴＰＫ含量高于无ＥＧＦ作用的细胞．提示ＵＭＲ１０６细胞本身可能具有受体ＴＰＫ活性,能够引起细胞受体自动磷酸化,ＥＧＦ刺激后ＴＰＫ的磷酸化作用增强,可见ＲＦＰ１３４对ＥＧＦ诱导的ＴＰＫ磷酸化和无ＥＧＦ诱导的受体自动磷酸化都具有明显的抑制作用,（并强于ＲＡ）这可能与在第二信使水平上阻抑ＰＴＰＫ活性密切相关

黄瓜AGAMOUS同源基因的分离和表达(英文)

黄瓜花发育的早期均有雌蕊和雄蕊原基的分化,但在发育过程中,由于雌蕊或雄蕊的发育受到阻滞,导致雄花和雌花的形成。近年来在拟南芥和金鱼草等植物中遗传学的研究表明,花器官的特征是由同源异形基因决定的。在拟南芥中,由于ＡＧ在决定雄蕊和雌蕊特征方面起重要作用,本研究利用 ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ技术,从黄瓜的雌、雄蕊中分离出 ＡＧ的同源基因,并对其在花发育过程中的表达和可能作用进行了分析。首先,根据ＡＧ同源基因的保守区域设计５’简并引物５’－ＧＡ（Ａ／Ｇ）ＡＴ（Ｔ／Ｃ／Ａ）ＡＡ（Ｔ／Ｃ／Ａ）ＡＡ（Ｇ／Ａ）（Ａ／Ｃ）Ｇ（Ｇ／Ｔ／Ｃ）ＡＴＣＧＡ（Ｃ／Ａ）ＡＡＣ－３’,然后进行３’,ＲＡ ＣＥ ＰＣＲ,扩增出约１ｋｂ大小的片段,序列分析表明该片段含有非常保守的ＭＡＤＳ ｂｏｘ。进而,利用５’ ＲＡＣＥ ＰＣＲ得到全长度的ｃＤＮＡ。该ｃＤＮＡ的核苷酸序列与ＣＵＭ１（黄瓜 ＭＡＤＳ ｂｏｘ ｇｅｎｅ１）同源性高达９７％。 ＣＵＭ１在接牵牛中过量表达可引起花萼变为心皮状和花瓣变为雄蕊,说明ＣＵＭ１为ＡＧ的同源基因。基于该基因与ＣＵＭ１序列上的高度同源,我们认为其为黄瓜的ＡＧ同源基因。该基因命名为ＣＭＢ１,基因银行登记号为ＡＦ２８６６４９。Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒ

Characteristics of the membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius

Summary The membranes of the pellicle of the ciliatePseudomicrothorax dubius are investigated using thin section electron microscopy and freeze-fracture replicas. The plasma membrane is covered by a surface coat and is connected to the outer alveolar membrane by short, sometimes branched, bridges. The inner alveolar membrane is coated on both sides. The epiplasm lies in intimate contact with the cytoplasmic surface of this membrane, and there is a corresponding deposit on the other surface. This deposit is regularly striated.The epiplasmic layer and the alveoli are interrupted at sites of cytotic activity,e.g., the attachment sites of trichocysts, the cytoproct, and the parasomal sacs. The striated deposit ends where the epiplasm ends, indicating a direct relationship between these two epimembranous layers.There is a deposit along the sides of the first part of the tip of the trichocysts, and in this region the trichocyst membrane is free of intramembranous particles.The membrane of the parasomal sacs has a coat on both surfaces. That on the extraplasmic surface is similar to the surface coat of the plasma membrane. The origin of the cytoplasmic coat is unknown. The cytotic activity of these sacs is indicated by their highly irregular profiles.     

The early development of the tail and the transformation of the shape of the nucleus of the spermatid of the domestic fowl,Gallus gallus

Summary The differentiation of the spermatid, especially in reference to the formation of the flagellum, and transformation of the shape of the nucleus was investigated in the domestic fowl.In the early stage of the spermatid, a prominent Golgi apparatus appears around the centrioles. The Golgi vesicles then surround the axial-filament complex which develops from the distal centriole. These vesicles fuse to form continuous membrane at the earliest stage of flagellar formation, and in the succeeding stage Golgi lamellae are attached to the plasma membrane of the developing flagellum. From these observations, it is assumed that Golgi apparatus may be a source of the membrane system of the flagellum.The microtubules distributed around the nucleus form the circular manchette. The anterior region of the nucleus with the manchette is cylindrical in shape and the posterior region without it remains irregular in shape. When the circular manchette has been completed, the whole nucleus acquires a slender cylindrical shape. The circular manchette then changes into the longitudinal manchette. The nuclei of spermatids without a longitudinal manchette are abnormal in shape. In view of these observations it is assumed that the nuclear shaping of the spermatid may be accomplished by circular manchette and the maintenance of shape of the elongated nucleus by longitudinal manchette.The authors wish to thank Mr. Takayuki Mori for his helpful suggestions and technical advices     

Characterization of the composition of the aqueous humor and the vitreous body of the eye of the frog Rana temporaria L

This study aimed to analyze the aqueous humor (AH) and the vitreous body (VB) of the eye of the adult frog Rana temporaria L. as a representative species of amphibians, which lead a semi-terrestrial life. The presence of collagen, albumin, uric acid and electron donors was shown in both media; however, there are slight differences in their concentrations. To determine collagen, a spectral-fluorescent probe, cyanine dye, was used. The presence of collagen in AH of the frog was found at the first time. The total content of electron donors (ascorbic and uric acids, tryptophan, and tyrosine) in VB and HA was roughly estimated at ~ 1.5 × 10^− 4 mol/L. Both VB and AH absorb light in similar UV regions. The total protein and albumin contents in AH were found to be somewhat higher than those in VB. The uric acid content was at an equally low level in both intraocular media. It is supposed that the similarity of VB and AH compositions shown in this work is due to some exchange between VB and AH contents in the course of accommodation. The role of intraocular fluids in physiological functions of the eye and in protecting the retina against UV light is discussed.     

Observations on the permeability of the choriocapillaris of the eye

Summary The choriocapillaris is a fenestrated capillary bed located posterior to the retinal pigment epithelium. It serves as the main source of supply to the photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium, and other cells of the outer retina. The permeability of these capillaries to intravenously injected ferritin (MW — approx. 480,000; mol. diam. 11 nm) was examined in the mouse, rabbit, and guinea pig, each of which is characterized by a different type of retinal vascularization. In all three species, the bulk of the ferritin remained in the capillary lumina, where it appeared to be blocked at the level of the diaphragmed fenestrae. Some ferritin was present in endothelial cell vacuoles. The results confirm previous work on the rat choriocapillaris and indicate that the barrier function of the choriocapillary endothelium is present even among species in which the retinal circulation differs significantly.Supported by NIH grant EY03418
