20-羟基蜕皮酮对蓖麻蚕蛹体液免疫的调节作用(英)

本研究指出20—羟基蜕皮酮(20-OHE)参加蓖麻蚕蛹对大肠杆菌的体液免疫反应。20-OHE的作用方式是多方面的,包括提高血淋巴蛋白质含量,产生抗菌蛋白,增加溶菌酶活性,和激活原酚氧化酶系统。这表明多个免疫控制系统参与蓖麻蚕蛹体液免疫反应的可能性。     

MECHANISM OF ACTIVATION AND POSSIBLE ROLES OF THE CATHEPSIN B-LIKE AND D-LIKE PROTEINASES IN THE EGGS OF PHILOSAMIA CYNTHIA RICINI*

Abstract The mechanism of activation and possible roles in the yolk protein's degradation of the cathepsin B-like and cathepsin D-like proteinases in eggs of Philosamia cynthia ricini were studied. The results showed that acidification could not obviously change the molecular masses of the proteinases. The two proteinases were not likely to modify with each other. The results suggested that the two proteinases might hydrolyze different yolk proteins, or hydrolyze the yolk proteins at different stages during embryogenesis. The results of double immunodiffusion showed that the cathepsin B-like and cathepsin D-like proteinases might exist in the eggs of some different species in Lepidoptera.     

QUANTITATIVE VARIATION OF 20-HYDROXYECDYSONE IN THE NYMPH OF DERMACENTOR NIVEUS NEUMANN*

Abstract The variation of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20 E) levels in the unfed, feeding and engorged nymphs of Dermacentor niveus was studied. The results showed that 20 E existed in all stages of nymphal development. There were two peaks. A small peak (2. 34 ng/nymph) appeared in the feeding period (5 days after attachment) which was connected with the fast feeding before dropping from the host, and a big peak (16.17 ng/nymph) in the moulting period (8 days after engorgement). The latter might be correlated with epicuticle deposition. From the 6th day to the 8th day after engorgement, the level of 20 E rose rapidly. Apolysis occurred in this period.     

EFFECT OF PARASITIZATION BY THE PUPAL ENDOPARISITOID,PTEROMALUS PUPARUM (HYMENOPTERA: PTEROMALIDAE) ON HUMORAL IMMUNE REACTIONS OF PIERIS RAPAE (LEPIDOPETERA: PIERIDAE)*

Abstract Studies on the effect of parasitization by the endoparasitoid on host humoral immune reactions are carried out with the pupal endoparisitic wasp, Pteromalus puparum, and its host, Pieris rapae. Phenoloxidase (PO) activity of parasitized hosts hemolymph increased significantly at 12 h, day four and day five after parasitization. Hem‐agglutination activity of parasitized hosts hemolymph was always higher than that of wounded and unparasitized ones. Moreover, antibacterial activity of parasitized hosts hemolymph became more and more stronger, whilst wounded and unparasitized pupae only owned a weak antibacterial activity. It suggested that activities of humoral immune factors of Pieris rapae could be influenced to some degrees by P. puparum.     

蝶蛹金小蜂寄生对菜粉蝶体液免疫反应的影响(英文)

以蝶蛹金小蜂及其寄主菜粉蝶为研究对象 ,研究了内寄生蜂对寄主体液免疫反应的影响。当寄主蛹被寄生后 1 2h或第 4和 5d时 ,血淋巴中酚氧化酶活性明显增高。寄生蛹血淋巴中血细胞凝集素活性始终高于针刺和未寄生蛹 ;同样 ,寄生蛹血淋巴的抗菌活性也明显增强 ,而后两者处理蛹的活性则很微弱。由此可知 ,该蜂寄生能引起寄主体液免疫因子活性的不同程度的变化
