点点滴滴汇成江河——小记师爷王文采先生

正《王文采院士论文集》终于出版了,从计划到完成编辑出版2卷,共耗时6年之多,基本收录了王先生的毕生心血之作。当然,正如他的弟子、我的老师傅德志研究员所说,王先生是一部写不完的书。在论文集出版之后,王先生仍然孜孜不倦地致力于分类学研究,最近,又有毛茛科、荨麻科等的一些新分类群描述和发表。特别说明一点,我称呼王文采院士为王文采先生,不同于一般的女士、先生之先生,而是对我

追思刘育民先生

刘育民先生走了,我是11月10日在北京参加院士会议期间,杨雄里院士告诉我这一噩耗的。刘育民先生的去世是我国生理学界,神经科学界的一大损失,这几天,我常常想起他为中国生理学界所做的许多重要贡献。     

张弥曼院士荣选为林奈学会外国会员

中国科学院古脊椎动物与古人类研究所研究员张弥曼院士新近被荣选为英国林奈学会外国会员。这是林奈学会授予在生物学领域做出重大贡献的外国科学家的一项终身荣誉称号,该会在全世界范围内仅接扣名外国会员,新会员的增补必须而且只能是因老会员逝世而遗出空缺时才有可能。张弥曼院士是享誉国际的著名古鱼类学家,她早年留学苏联,后获瑞典斯德哥尔摩大学博士学位,她在研究古鱼类的进化历史及四足类起源方面曾做出重要理论贡献,并因此荣获国内外多项学术奖励。张院士曾任中科院古脊椎动物与古人类研究所所长,现任中国古生物学会理事长及…

Investigation of the mechanism of temperature sensitivity of the electroreceptors of ampullae of lorenzini

In experiments on Black Sea skates (Raja clavata), the potential of the receptor epithelium of the ampullae of Lorenzini and spike activity of single nerve fibers connected to them were investigated during electrical and temperature stimulation. Usually the potential within the canal was between 0 and –2 mV, and the input resistance of the ampulla 250–400 k. Heating of the region of the receptor epithelium was accompanied by a negative wave of potential, an increase in input resistance, and inhibition of spike activity. With worsening of the animal's condition the transepithelial potential became positive (up to +10 mV) but the input resistance of the ampulla during stimulation with a positive current was nonlinear in some cases: a regenerative spike of positive polarity appeared in the channel. During heating, the spike response was sometimes reversed in sign. It is suggested that fluctuations of the transepithelial potential and spike responses to temperature stimulation reflect changes in the potential difference on the basal membrane of the receptor cells, which is described by a relationship of the Nernst's or Goldman's equation type.I.

Principles of organization and evolution of systems of regulation of functions

Evolution of living organisms is closely connected with evolution of structure of the system of regulations and its mechanisms. The functional ground of regulations is chemical signalization. As early as in unicellular organisms there is a set of signal mechanisms providing their life activity and orientation in space and time. Subsequent evolution of ways of chemical signalization followed the way of development of delivery pathways of chemical signal and development of mechanisms of its regulation. The mechanism of chemical regulation of the signal interaction is discussed by the example of the specialized system of transduction of signal from neuron to neuron, of effect of hormone on the epithelial cell and modulation of this effect. These mechanisms are considered as the most important ways of the fine and precise adaptation of chemical signalization underlying functioning of physiological systems and organs of the living organism
