Sixteen microsatellite loci are described for the two‐spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae, which is an agricultural pest. The microsatellite loci were obtained through the construction of an enriched library; these loci exhibited polymorphisms (2–5 alleles per locus) and high levels of observed (0.033–0.667, average 0.415) and expected (0.033–0.602, average 0.336) heterozygosities. The isolated microsatellite markers are expected to be useful for the construction of a linkage map of this species. 相似文献

Modifications occurring on autoantigens during cell death have been proposed to have a role in the initiation of autoimmune
diseases. Patients suffering from mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) produce autoantibodies directed to U1 small nuclear
ribonucleoprotein (snRNP), and antibodies against a 70 kDa protein component, the U1-70K (70K) protein, are the most prominent.
During apoptosis, 70K is cleaved by caspase-3 to a 40 kDa product, which remains associated with the complex. Autoantibodies
preferentially recognizing the apoptotic form of 70K have been described previously, and an apoptosis-specific epitope on
70K has been identified. This study shows that 29 of 53 (54%) MCTD sera preferentially recognize the apoptotic form of 70K
over intact 70K. Moreover, we show that antibodies directed to an apoptosis-specific epitope on 70K are more specifically
associated with MCTD than other anti-70K antibodies, suggesting that apoptotic 70K is a better antigen for the detection of
these antibodies in MCTD patients. Longitudinal analysis of 12 MCTD patients showed in several patients that early sera are
relatively enriched with antibodies recognizing an apoptosis-specific epitope, and that the levels of these apoptosis-specific
antibodies decrease in time. These findings indicate that the early detection of apoptotic 70K is of considerable interest
for anti-U1 snRNP-positive patients. 相似文献

We investigated the effects of thymoquinone (TQ) on the expression of liver microRNAs (miRNAs), liver histopathology and oxidative stress in Ehrlich acid solid tumor model induced mice. We used 24 male BALB/c mice divided randomly into three groups. Control (C) group mice were injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with 0.5 ml saline for four weeks. Tumor (T) group mice were injected i.p. with 0.5 ml saline for four weeks, then Ehrlich acid tumor cells were injected subcutaneously into the neck to induce solid tumor formation. TQ (T + Tq) group mice injected i.p. with 10 mg/kg TQ for four weeks, then Ehrlich acid tumor cells were injected subcutaneously into the neck of the mice in this group to induce solid tumor formation. At the end of the study, liver from all groups were removed for histopathological and miRNAs analysis, and oxidative stress measurement. We found that the expression of miR-206b-3p was up-regulated and the oxidative stress and necrosis increased in the liver tissue of mice with Ehrlich acid solid tumor. TQ application decreased the oxidative stress, prevented necrosis, increased regeneration and down-regulated the expression of miR-206b-3p in the liver tissue. 相似文献

Pitfall traps were used to monitor predatory arthropod numbers along two types of field boundary, a post and wire fence line and a Cupressus macrocarpa hedge, along the same paddock margin in Canterbury, New Zealand, over 24 months. The seven most abundant predator groups recorded were: Araneae > Phalangiidae > Staphylinidae > Coccinellidae > Chilopoda > Hemerobiidae > Carabidae. Araneae, Phalangiidae, Staphylinidae, Chilopoda and Hemerobiidae were found in larger numbers at the wire fence than at the hedge site, whereas the numbers of Carabidae and Coccinellidae adults exhibited no field margin preference. However, more species of Araneae and Staphylinidae were caught at the hedge site, whereas species richness of carabid beetles was greatest at the wire fence. Principal component analysis clearly separated the samples collected from the two habitats based on the assemblages of Araneae, Staphylinidae and Carabidae, and certain species in each of these taxonomic groups appeared to be particularly associated with one boundary type or the other. All the main taxonomic groups exhibited clear seasonal patterns, with distinct peaks in abundance occurring at certain times of the year. The results of the study reinforce the idea that management of field boundaries can be used to manipulate the type and abundance of particular groups of predatory arthropods, and that seasonal patterns should be taken into account in schemes of integrated pest management so that any adverse effects of biocide application on these beneficial species may be minimised. 相似文献

Complexes [Ga(2Ac4pFPh)2]NO3 (1), [Ga(2Ac4pClPh)2]NO3 (2), [Ga(2Ac4pIPh)2]NO3 (3), [Ga(2Ac4pNO2Ph)2]NO3·3H2O (4) and [Ga(2Ac4pT)2]NO3 (5) were obtained with 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-para-fluorophenyl-(H2Ac4pFPh), 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-para-chlorophenyl-(H2Ac4pClPh), 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-para-iodophenyl-(H2Ac4pIPh), 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-para-nitrophenyl-(H2Ac4pNO2Ph) and 2-acetylpyridine N(4)-para-tolyl-(H2Ac4pT) thiosemicarbazone. 1–5 presented antimicrobial and cytotoxic properties. Coordination to gallium(III) proved to be an effective strategy for activity improvement against Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Candida albicans. The complexes were highly cytotoxic against malignant glioblastoma and breast cancer cells at nanomolar concentrations. The compounds induced morphological changes characteristic of apoptotic death in tumor cells and showed no toxicity against erythrocytes. 2 partially inhibited tubulin assembly at high concentrations and induced cellular microtubule disorganization, but this does not appear to be the main mechanism of cytotoxic activity. 相似文献

Patterns of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) variation
were studied in 378 populations of oak trees sampled throughout the
southern half of France. Six cpDNA haplotypes detected in a previous
European survey and three new cpDNA haplotypes were found in this region.
Two mitochondrial polymorphisms detected earlier by restriction analysis of
PCR-amplified fragments alone, or in combination with single-strand
conformation polymorphism (SSCP), were compared with the cpDNA data.
Sequencing revealed the nature of the two mitochondrial mutations: a
single-base substitution and a 4-bp inversion associated with a 22-bp
hairpin secondary structure. The single-base substitution was then analyzed
by allele-specific amplification. Results for the two cytoplasmic genomes
were combined, which allowed the identification of 12 cpDNA-mtDNA
haplotypes. The 4-bp mtDNA inversion has appeared independently in
different cpDNA lineages. Given the peculiar nature of this mtDNA mutation,
we suggest that intramolecular recombination leading to repeated inversions
of the 4-bp sequence (rather than paternal leakage of one of the two
genomes) is responsible for this pattern. Furthermore, the geographic
locations of the unusual cpDNA-mtDNA associations (due to the inversion)
usually do not match the zones of contact between divergent haplotypes. In
addition, in southern France, the groupings of populations based on the
mtDNA substitution were strictly congruent with those based on cpDNA.
Because many populations that are polymorphic for both cpDNA and mtDNA have
remained in contact since postglacial recolonization in this area without
producing any new combination of cytoplasms involving the mitochondrial
substitution, we conclude that paternal leakage is not a significant factor
at this timescale. Such results confirm and expand our earlier conclusions
based on controlled crosses.

Megadromus guerinii, an endemic carabid beetle (Carabidae), is the most common carabid throughout its restricted range on Banks Peninsula, a formation of extinct volcanoes in Canterbury, New Zealand. This study characterises the small-scale phylogeographic patterns of M. guerinii across the formerly volcanically active Banks Peninsula using mitochondrial and ribosomal genes. Between the eastern and western areas of the peninsula, the mitochondrial, but not nuclear, DNA has a well-defined geographic distribution. Specifically, mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (CO1) identifies two distinct groups (> 6% divergence between eastern and western beetles) while ribosomal genes show no discernible pattern. Whether such a pattern represents male-biased dispersal, Wolbachia infection, a recent range expansion of a divergent lineage, or a deeper historic separation is explored. There is potential that male-biased dispersal could have occurred. Wolbachia infection was not detected. We conclude that historical processes have likely separated taxa in the eastern and western peninsula. 相似文献
