Li+ counterion self-diffusion in ordered DNA

The anisotropic self-diffusion coefficient of ⁷Li⁺ (I = 3/2) counterions has been studied in hydrated, macroscopically oriented Li-(B)DNA fibers at relatively high water contents, corresponding to approximate DNA-DNA helix axis distances of 22–35 Å, using the pulsed field gradient hmr spin-echo method. Self-diffusion coefficients parallel (D_∥) and perpendicular (D_?) to the DNA helix axis increase with increasing salt content and with increasing DNA-DNA helix axis distance. The observed anisotropy D_∥/D_? decreases from 1.6 to 1.2 with the DNA-DNA separation increasing from 22 to 35 Å in the salt-free sample. This result can be understood by the obstruction effect caused by the DNA molecules themselves. The values of the Li⁺ self-diffusion coefficients in the most water-rich system with no added salt (corresponding to an approximate distance of 35 Å between the DNA helix axes) were D_∥ ～ 1.15 × 10^?10 m² s^?1 and D_? ～ 0.98 × 10^?10 m² s^?1, compared to 9.14 × 10^?10 m² s^?1 for the diffusion of Li⁺ in an aqueous solution of LiCl (～ 2.1M). The possible occurrence of restriction effects in the DNA fibers have also been studied by determining the self-diffusion coefficient at different effective diffusion times. The self-diffusion coefficient of Li⁺ in the sample with the largest DNA-DNA helix axis distance seems to be independent of the effective diffusion time, which indicates that the lithium ions are not trapped within impermeable barriers. The possibility of diffusion through permeable barriers has also been investigated, and is discussed. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Superovulatory response of ovarian follicles of Wave 1 versus Wave 2 in heifers

Experiments were designed to test the hypotheses that ovarian follicular response to superstimulatory treatment initiated during Wave 1 is equivalent to that of Wave 2, and recovery rate and quality of ova embryos derived from follicles of Wave 1 are equivalent to those derived from follicles of Wave 2. In a preliminary experiment (Experiment 1), heifers were given Folltropin-V (20 mg NIH-FSH-P1, im, bid for 5 d) beginning the day after emergence of the first (n=10) or second (n=10) follicular wave of the estrous cycle, equivalent to approximately Day 1 and Day 10, respectively (Day 0=ovulation). Luteolysis was induced with cloprostenol (500 mug im, bid) on the fourth day of treatment. Fewer (P<0.05) ovulations per heifer were induced in the Wave 1 group than in the Wave 2 group (4.6+/-1.0 vs 9.1+/-1.3). However, the interval from wave emergence to initiation of treatment was found, in retrospect, to have been longer (P<0.05) in the Wave 1 group, i.e., treatment was initiated relatively later with respect to wave emergence. Experiment 2 was designed to correct this disparity and to initiate the same treatment protocol on the day of wave emergence rather than the day after (n=21 per Wave group). There was no difference between Wave 1 and Wave 2 groups in the interval from wave emergence to initiation of treatment (0.4+/-0.1 d), the number of ovulations detected by ultrasonography (6.6+/-1.0 vs 8.2+/-1.7), the number of CL detected at slaughter (6.5+/-0.9 vs 8.1+/-1.8), the total number of ova embryos recovered (5.2+/-0.7 vs 5.1+/-0.8), or the number of fertilized embryos collected (2.8+/-0.6 vs 3.0+/-0.6). In addition, there was no difference between groups in the proportion of heifers that ovulated in either experiment; collectively, luteolysis and ovulation was induced in 58 of 60 heifers. The results supported the general hypothesis that follicles and oocytes of the first and second follicular waves are equivalent in the response to superstimulatory treatment. Regardless of which follicular wave, initiation of treatment near the time of wave emergence appears critical for maximal superovulatory response. Because of the consistency in the time of emergence of Wave 1 (day of ovulation) and equivalence in superovulatory response, use of Wave 1 rather than subsequent follicular waves may be more convenient and time-sparing in superovulation programs; the day of estrus (day before ovulation) may be used as a consistent point of reference for the start of treatment.     

Superovulatory response to a single subcutaneous injection of Folltropin-V in beef cattle

A series of 4 experiments were designed to evaluate the feasibility of superstimulation in beef cattle with a single sc injection of the porcine pituitary extract, Folltropin-V. In the preliminary study (Experiment 1), superovulatory response of cows (n=7) treated with a single sc injection of 400 mg NIH-FSH-P1 Folltropin-V was not different than that of cows (n=8) superstimulated with twice daily im injections over 4 d, or a single sc injection plus an injection of eCG (n=12). Experiments 2 and 3 were designed to determine the optimal site of a single sc injection. In Experiment 2, cows (n=25) with body condition scores (BCS) of 1 to 2 were used. The mean number of CL counted and ova/embryos collected was lower (P<0.05) in cows treated with the single sc injection in the neck region than in cows treated with a single sc injection behind the shoulder, or with the twice daily im injection treatment. In Experiment 3, cows (n=49) with BCS of 3 to 5 were used. There were no differences in the number of CL, total ova/embrvos collected, fertilized ova and transferable embryos whether treatments were given in the neck region or behind the shoulder, or whether the cows were implanted or not implanted with Syncro-Mate-B. Experiment 4 was designed to determine the optimal superstimulatory dosage of Folltropin-V administered by a single sc injection. Superovulatory response of cows treated with the higher doses (400 mg, 600 mg or 800 mg NIH-FSH-P1) was higher (P<0.05) than those treated with 200 mg NIH-FSH-P1. The number of unovulated (>/=10 mm) follicles at the time of ova/embryo collection was higher (P<0.05) in the 600 and 800 mg groups, and progesterone concentration at estrus was higher (P<0.05) in cows treated with 800 mg than with 400 or 200 mg. It was concluded that a single, bolus sc injection of 400 mg NIH-FSH-P1 of Folltropin-V is as efficacious as the 4-d, twice daily im treatment protocol for inducing superovulation in beef cows. The amount of subcutaneous fat and site of injection appeared to affect the efficacy of a single sc injection; a single bolus sc injection of Folltropin-V behind the shoulder resulted in the most predictable superovulatory response.     

Lipase-catalyzed alcoholysis of triglycerides for the preparation of 2-monoglycerides

Rhizopus arrhizus lipase immobilized on celite was used to prepare isomerically pure 2-monoglycerides by alcoholysis of triglycerides in organic media. Reaction parameters such as choice of solvent, choice of alcohol, and alcohol concentration were studied. When 12.5 mM tripalmitin was used as substrate, methyl-tert-butyl ether was the best solvent for alcoholysis at water activity 0.11. Ethanol gave the highest yield (97%) at an optimal ethanol concentration of 200–300 mM. At higher alcohol concentrations, the enzyme activity was substantially lowered. The enzyme preparation showed high stability in repeated-batch reactions.

MPEG－SOD对急性低氧下鼠左心功能的保护作用

单甲氧基聚乙二醇（ＭＰＥＧ）活化后与超氧化物歧化酶（ＳＯＤ）偶联,经纯化后得到ＭＰＥＧ－ＳＯＤ,鉴定其分子量约为７．０×１０５Ｄａｔｉｏｎ。其在血液循环中酶活性半衰期超过３０ｈ,远大于天然ＳＯＤ（６－１０ｍｉｎ）。ＳＤ雄性大鼠分三组．对照组（ｎ＝８．由股静脉注入０．２ｍｌ生理盐水）、ＮａｔｉｖｅＳＯＤ组（ｎ＝８,注以０．２ｍｌ生理盐水配的８００ＵＳＯＤ）和ＭＰＥＧ－ＳＯＤ组（ｎ＝９,注以８００ＵＭＰＥＧ－ＳＯＤ）。低氧前三组鼠的心率（ＨＲ）、左室内峰压（ＬＶＰ）、左室压微分（ＬＶ±ｄｐ／ｄｔｍａｘ）和股动脉压（ＡＰ）均无统计学差别。在模拟６０００—６５００ｍ高度急性低氧１．８．１４ｍｉｎ记录上述各项指标,结果如下：除ＨＲ外,ＮａｔｉｖｅＳＯＤ组与对照组各指标均无统计学差别,ＭＰＥＧ－ＳＯＤ组的各项指标均明显高于对照组。表明ＭＰＥＧ－ＳＯＤ对急性低氧导致的左心室力学指标的减弱有明显保护作用,提示超氧自由基（Ｏ２－）在急性低氧导致左心室功能损伤中起重要作用,即可能是由Ｏ２－及其衍生的其它自由基损害心肌细胞生物膜系统所致。     

DOCA—Salt高血压大鼠模型的一种简易制备方法：DOCA硅胶管皮下埋入法

用外径４ｍｍ,内径２．５０ｍｍ的硅胶管制成长２５ｍｍ,管内填入ＤＯＣＡ１００ｍｇ,管壁钻有１０一１４个直径约３００μｍ微孔的药管,埋入雄性ＳＤ大鼠（１４０±９ｇ）右下腹皮下,摘除一侧肾脏,术后喂１％盐水。埋管后３周即可形成高血压,埋管后８周大鼠的收缩压达２３．３±０．３７ｋＰａ。而ＤＯＣＡ皮下注射组大鼠（１０ｍｇ／周）术后５周形成高血压,术后１３周大鼠的收缩压达２３．３±０．６６ｋＰａ。两组升压曲线回归系数（１．２９５和０．６９２）之间的差异有极显著性意义（Ｐ＜０．００１）。对照鼠的收缩压一直保持在正常水平（１６±０．１６ｋＰａ）。与ＤＯＣＡ皮下注射法相比,皮下埋管法具有两个显著优点：（１）升压速率较快,升压幅度较大;（２）方法简便可靠,重复性好。     

豚鼠腹腔神经节细胞γ－氨基丁酸双相反应的药理学特性

在豚鼠腹腔神经节细胞,γ－氨基丁酸（ＧＡＢＡ）可诱发“去极化－超极化”的双相反应,去极化伴膜电阻减小,超极化伴膜电阻增大,这种反应在低钙高镁液中仍然存在。蝇蕈醇可模拟ＧＡＢＡ双相反应,但在诱发相同强度的去极化反应时,蝇蕈醇产生的超极化弱于ＧＡＢＡ。荷包牡丹碱（１００μｍｏｌ／Ｌ）和印防已毒素（１００—３００μｍｏｌ／Ｌ）能可逆地抑制ＧＡＢＡ诱发的双相反应。Ｂａｃｌｏｆｅｎ对神经节细胞的膜电位无明显影响。结果提示,ＧＡＢＡ双相反应的去极化相由ＧＡＢＡＡ／Ｃｌ－通道受体复合物介导,而超极化相很可能由不同于经典的ＧＡＢＡＡ受体,但其药理学行为又由与之十分相近的另一种ＧＡＢＡ受体介导。
