NaCl诱导大麦细胞微核及异常有丝分裂的研究

大麦幼苗生长在含ＮａＣｌ的介质中「ｃ（ＮａＣｌ）＝０,０．０５,０．１０,０．１５,０．２０,０．２５ｍｏｌ／Ｌ」,其根尖细胞有丝分裂指数下降,各ＮａＣｌ处理组的微核率均有不同程度地增加,并诱发产生了如染色体断片、后期染色体桥及“不均等分裂”等异常分裂。诱发微核及异常分裂细胞的比率与ＮａＣｌ浓度和作用时间呈正相关,浓度提高或作用时间延长则微核千分率与异常分裂细胞比率增高。     

氯化铅对豌豆根尖细胞微核和异常分裂的作用（简报）

0．5－30mg.L^-1的氯化铅溶液对豌豆根尖生长无影响,但微核总数及微核率明显增高,并诱发产生染色体断片,粘连,滞后,染色体桥等异常分裂。诱导的比率与氯化铅溶液浓度和作用时间呈正相关。用40mg.L氯化铅处理的豌豆根尖生长发育受抑,微核率下降,据此认为废水排放标准中应增加遗传毒理学指标。

微核形成与细胞周期关系的初步研究 Ⅲ.丝裂霉素c诱发人淋巴细胞染色体畸变与不同周期阶段的微核形成

为了研究染色体畸变与微核形成的关系,本实验用不同浓度的丝裂霉素C(MMC,0.025—0.4μg/ml),处理人外周血淋巴细胞,观察中期染色体畸变与不同细胞周期形成的微核间的关系。获得如下主要结果:(1)MMC诱发的染色体畸变细胞率(ACF),未经培养的G_0期淋巴细胞的微核细胞率(NC-MNCF)以及培养的淋巴细胞的微核细胞率(C-MNCF),在一定剂量范围内均呈剂量依赖性增加,并可用幂回归方程描述;(2)微核形成与染色体畸变全然无关的NC-MNCF,和C-MNCF一样,与ACF呈良好的正相关;(3)用胞质分裂阻滞(CB)法,检测MMC诱发的CB-MNCF,较C-MNCF无显著提高,MNCF/ACF的比值较小,并随着MMC剂量增加从0.15左右降到0.03。所有上述结果表明,不能简单理解微核形成与染色体畸变间的关系,在分裂的细胞群体中,中期染色体畸变可能仅是微核形成的一种来源。

Influence of saline stress on root hydraulic conductance and PIP expression in Arabidopsis

Measurements of the root hydraulic conductance (L0) of roots of Arabidopsis thaliana were carried out and the results were compared with the expression of aquaporins present in the plasma membrane of A. thaliana. L0 of plants treated with different NaCl concentrations was progressively reduced as NaCl concentration was increased compared to control plants. Also, L0 of plants treated with 60 mmol/L NaCl for different lengths of time was measured. Variations during the light period were seen, but only for the controls. A good correlation between mRNA expression and L0 was observed in both experiments. Control plants and plants treated with 60 mmol/L NaCl were incubated with Hg and then with DTT. For these plants, L0 and cell-to-cell pathway contributions to root water transport were determined. These results revealed that in control plants most water movement occurs via the cell-to-cell pathway, thus implying aquaporin involvement. But, in NaCl-stressed plants, the Hg-sensitive cell-to-cell pathway could be inhibited already by the effect of NaCl on water channels. Therefore, short periods of NaCl application to Arabidopsis plants are characterised by decreases in the L0 of roots, and are related to down-regulation of the expression of the PIP aquaporins. This finding indicates that the well known effect of salinity on L0 could involve regulation of aquaporin expression.     

Elemental composition ofMedicago sativa under saline conditions. Relation to biological nitrogen fixation

The salinity tolerance of aRhizobium meliloti strain, used as inoculum, was established by growing the strain for seven consecutive generations in a broth containing 0–1.2% NaCl. Identical generation times and viable cell numbers were observed. Furthermore, the nodulation, plant yield and elemental composition ofM. sativa grown on agar slopes responded identically to all inocula, irrespective of the levels of NaCl with which they were grown. The effect of salinity on the ability ofM. sativa to grow and fix nitrogen was tested on agar slopes containing 0–1.2 % NaCl. At 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4 % NaCl the induced fixation was identical as indicated by the constant values of nodulation and plant yield. However, a significant reduction at 0.8 and almost a total suppression at 1.2 % NaCl occurred. Commensurate was the effect of inoculation on the elemental composition ofM. sativa as a function of salinity at the agar medium. The concentration of Mo, Mn, Sr, Cu and Zn, is clearly affected by fixation while salinity has no effect. Their concentration in the inoculated plants is significantly lower compared to the uninoculated at 0–0.4 % NaCl levels, when significant fixation occurred. In contrast, at 0.8 and 1.2 % NaCl their concentration in inoculated and uninoculated plants tends to overlap. On the other hand, the concentration of K, Rb, Br and Cl is affected mainly by salinity. Finally, Ni is affected by neither salinity nor nitrogen fixation.     

The protective action of betaine on the deleterious effects of NaCl on preimplantation mouse embryos in vitro

The development of outbred mouse (CF1) zygotes in vitro has been studied using medium SOM in which the concentrations of NaCl (85, 105, 125 mM), glutamine (0, 1, 2 mM), and betaine (0, 1, 2 mM) were varied. The effects of the compounds were studied using a 3³ factorial experimental arrangement. The inhibitory effect of relatively high concentrations of NaCl and the protective effect of glutamine were confirmed. Betaine, an organic osmolyte, can also protect against the deleterious effects of relatively high concentrations of NaCl. The intracellular contents of potassium and sodium have also been measured in single zygotes using X-ray electron probe spectrometry. When medium SOM contains 85 mM or 125 mM NaCl, the intracellular content of Na rises and the content of K decreases. These changes are partially reduced in the presence of 125 mM NaCl if betaine is also in the medium. Betaine has no effect on the intracellular content of K and Na if the concentration of NaCl is 85 mM. These results suggest that organic osmolytes may be required in embryo culture media to prevent excessive changes in the intracellular ionic concentration. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.     

Enhancement of salt tolerance in soybean with NaCl pretreatment

Acclimation response to salt stress in soybean ( Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv. Lee) was found in this study. Soybean seedlings were exposed to 0, 34 and 68 m M NaCl for 23 days (pretreatment), thereafter plants were exposed to 0, 68 and 137 m M NaCl until maturity (main treatment). There was no effect of pretreatment on growth, but at 137 m M NaCl, Na⁺ concentration in leaves of the plants pretreated with 34 m M NaCl was lower than that of plants pretreated with 0 and 68 m M NaCl. Furthermore, the survival rate under 137 m M NaCl improved with the 34 m M NaCl pretreatment. Therefore, it is possible that soybean can acclimate to salt stress by its increased survival rate, without showing any improvement in growth. The regulation of Na⁺ or Cl⁻ concentration in leaves could be one of the possible factors involved in salt acclimation of soybean.     

Sulfate anion stabilization of native ribonuclease A both by anion binding and by the Hofmeister effect

Data are reported for T(m), the temperature midpoint of the thermal unfolding curve, of ribonuclease A, versus pH (range 2-9) and salt concentration (range 0-1 M) for two salts, Na(2)SO(4) and NaCl. The results show stabilization by sulfate via anion-specific binding in the concentration range 0-0.1 M and via the Hofmeister effect in the concentration range 0.1-1.0 M. The increase in T(m) caused by anion binding at 0.1 M sulfate is 20 degrees at pH 2 but only 1 degree at pH 9, where the net proton charge on the protein is near 0. The 10 degrees increase in T(m) between 0.1 and 1.0 M Na(2)SO(4), caused by the Hofmeister effect, is independent of pH. A striking property of the NaCl results is the absence of any significant stabilization by 0.1 M NaCl, which indicates that any Debye screening is small. pH-dependent stabilization is produced by 1 M NaCl: the increase in T(m) between 0 and 1.0 M is 14 degrees at pH 2 but only 1 degree at pH 9. The 14 degree increase at pH 2 may result from anion binding or from both binding and Debye screening. Taken together, the results for Na(2)SO(4) and NaCl show that native ribonuclease A is stabilized at low pH in the same manner as molten globule forms of cytochrome c and apomyoglobin, which are stabilized at low pH by low concentrations of sulfate but only by high concentrations of chloride.     

Historical and Contemporary NaCl Concentrations Affect the Duration and Distribution of Lag Times from Individual Spores of Nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum

In this study we determined the effect of NaCl concentration during sporulation (0 or 3.0% [wt/vol] added NaCl) and subsequent growth (0 or 2.0% [wt/vol] added NaCl) on the distributions of times associated with various stages of the lag phase of individual spores of nonproteolytic Clostridium botulinum strain Eklund 17B. The effects of NaCl on the probability of germination and the probability of subsequent growth were also determined. Spore populations exhibited considerable heterogeneity at all stages of lag phase for each condition tested. Germination time did not correlate strongly with the times for later stages in the lag phase, such as outgrowth and doubling time. Addition of NaCl to either the sporulation or growth media increased the mean times for, and variability of, all the measured stages of the lag phase (germination, emergence, time to one mature cell, and time to first doubling). There was a synergistic interaction between the inhibitory effects of NaCl in the sporulation medium and the inhibitory effects of NaCl in the subsequent growth medium on the total lag time and each of its stages. Addition of NaCl to either the sporulation medium or the growth medium reduced both the probability of germination and the probability of a germinated spore developing into a mature cell, but the interaction was not synergistic. Spores formed in medium with added NaCl were not better adapted to subsequent growth in suboptimal osmotic conditions than spores formed in medium with no added NaCl were. Knowledge of the distribution of lag times for individual spores and quantification of the biovariability within lag time distributions may provide insight into the underlying mechanisms and can be used to improve predictions of growth in food and to refine risk assessments.

Vibrio anguillarum: Influence of temperature, pH, NaCl concentration and incubation time on growth

An analysis of the effect of growth conditions on the growth (O.D. values) of five Vibrio anguillarum strains showed that the optima were as follows: pH 7, temperature 25°C, NaCl concentration 2%, and O.D. estimates increased with the incubation time. The independent parameters, as well as their interactions significantly influenced the growth of Vibrio anguillarum ( P 0<0001). Only the strain-salinity interaction was not always statistically significant. A restriction of the parameters to a level relevant for Danish marine recipients showed that pH and NaCl concentration (salinity) might be of minor importance while the temperature was always of high significance. The possible impact of these observations on local conditions is discussed.     

Growth,fluorescence, photosynthetic O<Subscript>2</Subscript> production and pigment content of salt adapted cultures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Arthrospira</Emphasis> (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Spirulina</Emphasis>) <Emphasis Type="Italic">platensis</Emphasis>

The effect of salt concentration (NaCl) on growth, fluorescence, photosynthetic activities and pigment content of the cyanobacterium Arthrospira platensis has been investigated over 15 days. It has been observed that high NaCl concentration induces an increase of the growth, photosynthetic efficiency (α), phycobilin/chlorophyll ratio and a slight decrease of dark respiration and compensation points. Moreover, high NaCl concentration enhances photosystem II (PSII) activity compared to photosystem I (PSI). Results show that the phycobilin-PSII energy transfer compared to the chlorophyll-PSII (F_695,600/F_695,440) increases. However, data obtained about the maximal efficiency of PSII photochemistry are controversial. Indeed, the Fv/Fm ratio decreases in salt adapted cultures, while at the same time the trapping flux per PSII reaction center (TR₀/RC) and the probability of electron transport beyond Q_A (₀) remain unchanged at the level of the donor and the acceptor sites of PSII. This effect can be attributed to the interference of phycobilin fluorescence with Chl a when performing polyphasic transient measurements.
