凝集素受体在正常及缺氧—再给氧脑微血管内皮细胞的表达

本文应用凝集素亲和细胞化学的方法,通过荧光标记的麦胚凝集素（ＦＩＴＣ－ＷＧＡ）对培养的大鼠脑微血管内皮细胞进行染色,观察了ＷＧＡ凝集素受体在缺氧－再给氧后脑微血管内皮细胞上的表达。通过图像分析定量细胞表面的荧光强度,发现脑微血管内皮细胞单纯缺氧６小时后凝集素受体表达与正常对照组相比无明显变化;其显著改变发生于再给氧１小时后,ＷＧＡ的结合位点明显增加,荧光强度达峰值;再给氧３小时及６小时后有所下降,但与正常对照组相比仍具有显著性差异。上述结果与我们以往的动物在体实验,即大鼠脑缺血－再灌注后内皮细胞ＷＧＡ受体的表达趋势相吻合。说明脑微血管内皮细胞凝集素受体在细胞损伤后发生改变,并显示了在单纯缺血损伤和再灌注损伤的表达有所不同,它与其它内皮损伤后的变化,如细胞因子及其受体、粘附分子等的关系有待于深入研究     

纤维蛋白原、神经氨酸酶对红细胞与内皮细胞粘附的影响

采用流室系统,研究了不同切应力作用,纤维蛋白原（Ｆｇ）、神经氨酸酶对红细胞（ＲＢＣ）与内皮细胞（ＥＣ）粘附的影响。结果表明：Ｆｇ可以增加ＲＢＣ与ＥＣ的粘附且存在明显的剂量依赖关系;加入Ｆｇ后,随切应力增大,ＲＢＣ与ＥＣ相对粘附数按指数曲线减少并且趋于一大于零的值,而对照组却趋于零。提示这种由Ｆｇ介质的粘附可能存在于体内正常生理切应力范围内,并与对照组的粘附有着本质的不同。实验还表明：在０．１Ｐａ和     

不同应激损伤所致血管内皮细胞中vWF的变化

目的：通过检测血管内皮细胞（ＶＥＣ）中ｖＷＦ的变化,评价ＶＥＣ的损伤。方法：利用免疫组化技术对体外培养的猪肺动脉内皮细胞（ＰＡＥＣ）和大鼠主动脉内皮细胞（ＡＥＣ）中ｖＷＦ进行免疫荧光标记,通过流式细胞仪对ｖＷＦ的细胞阳性率和荧光强度进行定性、定量分析,观察低氧和低温所引起的ｖＷＦ变化。结果：正常猪ＰＡＥＣ和大鼠ＡＥＣ的ｖＷＦ阳性率在８０％左右,阳性程序较高。但缺氧或冷冻损伤可使ＰＡＥＣ和ＡＥＣ的ｖ     

应用激光共聚焦扫描技术对海马脑片神经元内钙的观察

用微量注射法将荧光剂Ｆｌｕｏ－３注入大鼠海马,对神经元进行在体荧光标记,可清晰地标记多个神经细胞。联合应用激光共聚焦扫描显微镜,观察大鼠海马脑片ＣＡ１锥体细胞在青霉素,谷氨酸模拟致痫及缺糖缺氧时胞内钙的变化。结果显示：无镁时,谷氨酸和青霉素可致海马ＣＡ１锥体细胞胞内钙的缓慢增加;离体缺糖缺氧时ＣＡ１锥体细胞胞内钙亦增多。     

测量细胞内吞过程中膜受体流动性的新方法

本文首次提出用ＡＢＣ（ＡｖｉｄｉｎＢｉｏｔｉｎＣｏｍｐｌｅｘ）法标记细胞膜受体,通过ＦＲＡＰ（ＦｌｕｏｒｅｓｃｅｎｃｅＲｅｃｏｖｅｒｙＡｆｔｅｒＰｈｏｔｏｂｌｅａｃｈｉｎｇ）技术,测量细胞内吞过程中受体流动性变化的方法。实验选择巨噬细胞ＣｏｎＡ受体,比较了用ＣｏｎＡ－Ｂｉｏｔｉｎ＋Ａｖｉｄｉｎ－ＦＩＴＣ（ＡＢＣ法）和ＣｏｎＡ－ＦＩＴＣ（直接法）标记的膜表面ＣｏｎＡ受体荧光强度和内吞过程中受体的流动性测量结果。结果显示ＣｏｎＡ－Ｂｉｏｔｉｎ＋Ａｖｉｄｉｎ－ＦＩＴＣ标记的巨噬细胞膜受体的平均荧光强度比用ＣｏｎＡ－ＦＩＴＣ标记的平均荧光强度高大约３倍;ＡＢＣ法标记的受体,测量结果误差小、灵敏度高;ＣｏｎＡ刺激１５ｍｉｎ后,巨噬细胞膜表面ＣｏｎＡ受体的扩散系数和荧光恢复率较静息状态时明显下降。讨论了两种标记方法对测量结果的影响     

UV照射与非UV照射FITC致敏小鼠淋巴结树突状细胞的光电镜免疫组织化学特性

本工作观察了小鼠淋巴结树突状细胞（ＤＣ）的光、电镜免疫组织化学特性,并探讨其功能。从ＦＩＴＩＣ致敏小鼠淋巴结分离的ＤＣ在体外可刺激ＦＩＴＣ特异性Ｔ－细胞株增殖。注射经ＵＶ照射、ＦＩＴＣ致敏的小鼠淋巴结细胞（ＤＬＮＣ）至受体小鼠,可导致该小鼠的免疫耐受;这些细胞在体外仍可促进ＦＩＴＣ特异性Ｔ－细胞株增殖,但明显弱于非ＵＶ照射小鼠ＤＬＮＣ的作用。免疫光镜下显示ＵＶ－ＦＩＴＣ致敏小鼠淋巴结的ＦＩＴＣ阳性ＤＣ与非ＵＶ照射ＦＩＴＣ致敏组一样也表达了ＭＡＣ－１、２、３和Ｆ４／８０等巨噬细胞标志,唯其ＦＩＴＣ阳性细胞率明显高于非照射ＦＩＴＣ致敏组动物。免疫电镜下显示这些细胞呈Ｉａ阳性和ＦＩＴＣ阳性,ＦＩＴＣ主要定位于线粒体和溶酶体结构等处。研究表明这些与ＦＩＴＣ致敏小鼠ＤＬＮＣ有关的细胞活性的差异与Ｉａ阳性ＤＣ数量减少、表面Ｉａ的表达、ＦＩＴＣ在ＤＣ内的分布变化无关。某些Ｉａ阳性ＤＣ胞质内可见Ｂｉｒｂｅｃｋ颗粒样结构,提示Ｉａ阳性ＤＣ的不同群体可迁移至ＵＶ照射小鼠的淋巴结。     

肠系膜微血管通透速度的图象分析

本文应用微循环活体观察和荧光示踪技术,通过计算机数字图象处理对荧光素钠（ＦＩＮａ）和ＦＩＴＣ－Ｄｅｘｔｒａｎｓ（ＦＤ－４,ＭＷ４０００,ＦＤ－１５０,ＭＷ１５００００）在肠系膜微血管的通透过程进行了定量研究,建立了正常大鼠肠系膜微血管对不同分子量荧光物质的通透方程,得到了通透系数及对通透系数评价的定量方法。结果证实：颈动脉注射荧光素钠后４ｓ即可在微血管中见到,扩散速度很快,通透系数为３．３６２×１０－８ｃｍ２／ｓ。注射ＦＤ－４后１５ｓ可在微血管中见到,扩散速度比荧光素钠慢１倍左右,通透系数为１．７１８×１０－８ｃｍ２／ｓ。注射ＦＤ－１５０后８ｓ可在微血管中见到,扩散速度很慢,约为荧光素钠扩散速度的１／７０,通透系数为０．０４８６×１０－８ｃｍ２／ｓ。荧光物质的渗出部位主要在毛细血管及细静脉,在细动脉则极少见到。证实我们计算得出的通透系数能够较好地反映肠系膜微血管通透的实际情况,所采用的评价方法及得到的通透方程可以用于微血管物质交换参数的定量评价。     

F—肌动蛋白是蒜根端分生组织细胞核和染色体的组成成分

以兔抗鸡肌动蛋白抗体为一抗、ＦＩＴＣ羊抗兔ＩｇＧ抗体为二抗进行间接免疫荧光标记实验,观察到蒜（ＡｌｉｕｍｓａｔｉｖｕｍＬ．）根端分生组织细胞核和染色体均发出明亮的黄绿色荧光,说明其中含有肌动蛋白。经ＴＲＩＴＣ鬼笔环肽标记后,完整的间期细胞、游离的间期细胞核、前期和中期染色体以及末期子细胞核均发出较强的红色荧光,而固定前用细胞松弛素Ｄ处理的根端分生组织细胞的荧光明显减弱或没有荧光,这些结果说明细胞核和染色体中存在着Ｆ肌动蛋白。抗肌动蛋白抗体和鬼笔环肽双标记实验结果指出,同一细胞核和染色体,在ＦＩＴＣ的激发光波长下发出代表总肌动蛋白的黄绿色的ＦＩＴＣ型荧光,在ＴＲＩＴＣ的激发光波长下则发出代表Ｆ肌动蛋白的红色的ＴＲＩＴＣ型荧光,两类荧光的分布是一致的。上述结果进一步证明Ｆ肌动蛋白是细胞核和染色体的组成成分,并说明Ｆ肌动蛋白可能是细胞核和染色体中肌动蛋白的主要存在方式。

实验在６只成年猫上进行。将ＷＧＡ－ＨＲＰ微量注入Ｃ５膈神经核内,通过逆行追踪及ＧＡＢＡ免疫组织化学ＦＩＴＣ荧光双重标记方法,研究了脑干内ＧＡＢＡ能神经元向膈神经核的投射。结果在脑桥ＫＦ核和面神经后核周围区（即Ｂｏｔｚｉｎｇｅｒ复合体）观察到ＧＡＢＡ－ＨＲＰ双标神经元。另外,在中缝大核、旁巨细胞外侧核及前庭神经核也观察到双标神经元。本实验结果表明：发自上述脑干神经核团,特别是ＫＦ核及Ｂｏｔｚｉｎｇｅ     

ATP对巨噬细胞内吞和溶酶体pH的影响

ＦＩＴＣ－ｄｅｘｔｒａｎ标记培养的小鼠腹腔巨噬细胞溶酶体,ＣｏｎＡ－ＦＩＴＣ标记细胞内吞。用激光扫描共聚焦显微镜测量伴刀豆球蛋白（ＣｏｎＡ）、ＡＴＰ引起的巨噬细胞溶酶体ｐＨ动态变化和ＡＴＰ对细胞内吞ＣｏｎＡ－ＦＩＴＣ的影响。结果显示ＣｏｎＡ引起巨噬细胞溶酶体ｐＨ迅速增加,６ｍｉｎ左右达到峰值（ｐＨ５．７）;ＡＴＰ刺激３０ｍｉｎ后再加入ＣｏｎＡ,溶酶体ｐＨ无明显变化（ｐＨ４．０）;同时加入ＡＴＰ和ＣｏｎＡ,５ｍｉｎ左右溶酶体ｐＨ降到最低点（ｐＨ４．１）;ＡＴＰ对巨噬细胞内吞ＣｏｎＡ－ＦＩＴＣ有明显的抑制作用。探讨了受体介导内吞与溶酶体ｐＨ的关系。     

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.     

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.

采用原位分子杂交方法检测HCV RNA及HBV X基因;采用免疫组织化学方法研究HCV核心抗原,非结构区C33c抗原及HBxAg在肝细胞肝癌中的定位及分布.结果表明(1)HCV RNA、HBV X基因在肝细胞肝癌组织检出率分别为40%(55/136)和82%(112/136).HCV RNA定位于癌细胞的胞浆内,阳性细胞呈散在、灶状及弥漫分布三种形式;HBV X基因在肝癌细胞中的分布呈胞浆型、核型及核浆型,阳性细胞也呈上述三种分布形式;(2)HCV C33c抗原、核心抗原在肝细胞肝癌中的阳性率为81%(133/164)及86%(141/164).C33c抗原定位于癌细胞及肝细胞的胞浆内;核心抗原既定位于癌细胞核中,又可定位于胞浆中.C33c抗原阳性细胞以灶状分布为主;而核心抗原阳性细     

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
