三唑酮对绿豆幼苗叶片衰老的延缓作用

三唑酮处理可提高离体绿豆（ＰｈａｓｅｏｌｕｓｒａｄｉａｔｕｓＬ．）幼苗叶片叶绿素和蛋白质含量。叶片衰老过程中超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡｓＡＰＯＤ）活性及抗坏血酸（ＡｓＡ）和还原型谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）含量降低。２０ｍｇ／Ｌ三唑酮可提高ＰＯＤ、ＡｓＡＰＯＤ活性和ＡｓＡ、ＧＳＨ含量,对ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ活性无影响。丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量在叶片衰老过程中提高,并与ＰＯＤ、ＡｓＡＰＯＤ活性和ＡｓＡ、ＧＳＨ含量呈显著负相关,三唑酮可降低ＭＤＡ含量。表明三唑酮有提高植物对膜脂过氧化作用的保护能力,延缓叶片的衰老作用。     

三唑酮对黄瓜子叶抗氧化酶活力的影响

黄瓜子叶衰老过程中超氧物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和抗坏血酸－过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ）活性降低,而过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性升高。２０ｍｇ／Ｌ三唑酮右明显提高ＳＯＤ,ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ,ＣＡＴ活性,抑制ＰＯＤ活性升高。膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量在叶片衰老过程中提高,三唑酮可降低ＭＤＡ含量。表明三唑酮减轻脂氧化程度,延缓了叶片的衰老。     

镍对水稻离体叶片脂质过氧化作用的影响

杂交水稻离体叶片用１０－３ｍｏｌ／ＬＮｉＳＯ４处理后,镍阻抑了叶片在衰老过程中ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ酶活性的下降和ＡｓＡ氧化酶活性的上升,ＡｓＡ和叶绿素含量的下降得到延缓,减少了膜脂过氧化程度。     

人为干扰对亚热带森林木本植物叶片抗氧化能力的影响

旅游、宗教活动及工厂废气等不同类型的人为干扰引起亚热带森林木本植物荷木和马尾松叶片膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量明显增加,超氧歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ）活性和谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）的含量则减少。荷木叶片的ＭＤＡ高于怪尾构,而ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ、ＡＳＡ－ＰＯＤ活性和ＧＳＨ含量却低于马尾松。人为干扰使荷木和马尾松叶片蛋白总量降低,酪蛋白水解酶、氨肽酶和内肽     

蚕豆监测大气SO2污染的指标筛选研究

熏气和暴露试验表明,蚕豆叶片可见伤害症状不宜作为监测指标,超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）活性、抗坏血酸（ＡＳＡ）含量和游离氨基酸（ＡＡ）含量作为监测指标,其指示效果优于过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性和叶绿素含量,其中又以ＳＯＤ活性为最好,而根据以上５个指标综合评价的效果又要优于任何单个指标．     

抗坏血酸对沙打旺原生质体分离和培养中膜损伤及相关酶活性的 …

抗坏血酸（ＡＳＡ）能减轻沙打旺原生质体的褐化,改善原生质体的培养状况,ＡＳＡ的作用可能与它增强原生质体抗过氧化能力有关。酶解处理诱导原生质体超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＰＸ）活性升高,但培养过程使ＡＰＸ活性明显下降,原生质体清除过氧化物能力减弱,膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）积累增加,膜发生损伤。向酶溶液和培养基中添加ＡＳＡ可显著提高ＳＯＤ尤其是ＡＰＸ活性,减轻膜脂过氧化,增强     

抗坏血酸对沙打旺原生质体分离和培养中膜损伤及相关酶活性的影响

抗坏血酸（ＡＳＡ） 能减轻沙打旺原生质体的褐化,改善原生质体的培养状况。ＡＳＡ的作用可能与它增强原生质体抗过氧化能力有关。酶解处理诱导原生质体超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ） 和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＰＸ）活性升高,但培养过程使ＡＰＸ 活性明显下降,原生质体清除过氧化物能力减弱,膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ ＭＤＡ） 积累增加,膜发生损伤。向酶溶液和培养基中添加ＡＳＡ 可显著提高ＳＯＤ 尤其是ＡＰＸ 活性,减轻膜脂过氧化,增强原生质体的存活力,促进原生质体的分裂和细胞克隆的形成。所有处理中过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ） 活性变化不大,表明它在原生质体清除过氧化物过程中不具主要作用。     

水杨酸对黄瓜叶片抗氧化剂酶系的调节作用

分析了水杨酸（ＳＡ）对黄瓜（ＣｕｃｕｍｉｓｓａｔｉｖｕｓＬ．）叶片抗氧化剂酶系活性及活性氧水平的调节作用。不同浓度的ＳＡ（０．５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、１ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、２．５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ、５ｍｍｏｌ／Ｌ）均能显著地提高被处理叶片超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）和过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）活性,而且还能诱导同株的非处理叶片中ＳＯＤ和ＰＯＤ活性增加。用１ｍｍｏｌ／ＬＳＡ处理第一片真叶,在处理后６～７２ｈ,ＰＯＤ活性增加了２２％～６７％,同株非处理的第二片真叶ＰＯＤ活性增加了１４％～８６％,但是,在ＳＡ处理后３ｈ之前以及处理９６ｈ之后,ＰＯＤ活性没有变化。ＳＡ能够显著降低超氧物阴离子含量和提高过氧化氢水平,但它对过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）活性的抑制作用很弱,表明ＳＡ提高体内过氧化氢含量的原因主要是通过提高ＳＯＤ活性而不是抑制ＣＡＴ活性。同工酶分析表明,ＳＡ不能诱导新的ＳＯＤ同工酶,但可以诱导新的ＰＯＤ同工酶。     

NaCl胁迫对螺旋藻生长及抗氧化酶活性的影响

在０１％～５．０％ＮａＣｌ浓度范围的培养基中培养极大螺旋藻（Ｓｐｉｒｕｌｉｎａｍａｘｉｍａ）,发现ＮａＣｌ浓度高于２．０％时螺旋藻生长受到明显抑制。培养７天后测定超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＡＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）活性和丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）含量。结果表明：在盐胁迫下,ＳＯＤ酶活性升高;抗坏血酸过氧化物酶和过氧化氢酶活性在低盐胁迫下活性升高,高盐胁迫下抗坏血酸过氧化物酶活性迅速降低,过氧化物酶则完全失活;ＭＤＡ含量先随盐胁迫程度增加而降低,后随盐胁迫的进一步增强恢复至对照水平。     

低温胁迫下红松幼苗活性氧的产生及保护酶的变化

在不同低温胁迫时间下,对红松（Ｐｉｎｕｓ ｋｏｒａｉｅｎｓｉｓ Ｓｉｅｂ．ｅｔ．Ｚｕｃｃ）幼苗针叶中Ｈ２Ｏ２、Ｏ＾－．２、膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（ＭＤＡ）、组织自动化氧化速率及保护酶超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）、过氧化物酶（ＰＯＤ）、过氧化氢酶（ＣＡＴ）和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（ＡＳＰ）的动态变化过程进行了测定。结果表明,随着低温胁迫时间的延长,Ｏ＾－．２产生速率和Ｈ２Ｏ２含量先上升后下降;ＭＤＡ的含量呈波     

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.     

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

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.
