咽喉部高频喷射通气调节各参数对狗肺通气效率的影响

用相关和回归处理方法,研究了8条正常狗咽喉部高频喷射通气时,调节驱动压、呼吸比和频率对喷气量、吸入气氧浓度、动脉血气及气道内压的作用。结果显示,驱动压和呼吸此对各观察指标几乎有同等重要的作用,频率的影响很小,喷气量与吸入气氧浓度、动脉血气、气道内压间存在显著的正相关关系。说明调节参数的意义主要在于改变了喷气量。     

The rate of nuclear cytoplasmic protein transport is determined by the casein kinase II site flanking the nuclear localization sequence of the SV40 T-antigen.

We have previously demonstrated [Rihs, H.-P. and Peters, R. (1989) EMBO J., 8, 1479-1484] that the nuclear transport of recombinant proteins in which short fragments of the SV40 T-antigen are fused to the amino terminus of Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase is dependent on both the nuclear localization sequence (NLS, T-antigen residues 126-132) and a phosphorylation-site-containing sequence (T-antigen residues 111-125). While the NLS determines the specificity, the rate of transport is controlled by the phosphorylation-site-containing sequence. The present study furthers this observation and examines the role of the various phosphorylation sites. Purified, fluorescently labeled recombinant proteins were injected into the cytoplasm of Vero or hepatoma (HTC) cells and the kinetics of nuclear transport measured by laser microfluorimetry. By replacing serine and threonine residues known to be phosphorylated in vivo, we identified the casein kinase II (CK-II) site S111/S112 to be the determining factor in the enhancement of the transport. Either of the residues 111 or 112 was sufficient to elicit the maximum transport enhancement. The other phosphorylation sites (S120, S123, T124) had no influence on the transport rate. Examination of the literature suggested that many proteins harboring a nuclear localization sequence also contain putative CK-II sites at a distance of approximately 10-30 amino acid residues from the NLS. CK-II has been previously implicated in the transmission of growth signals to the nucleus. Our results suggest that CK-II may exert this role by controlling the rate of nuclear protein transport.     

Construction and expression of mouse thymidylate synthase minigenes

Mouse thymidylate synthase minigenes that lack introns were constructed by ligating restriction fragments containing 4.5, 1.0, or 0.25 kilobase pairs (kb) of 5'-flanking DNA of the normal thymidylate synthase gene and as little as 0.25 kb of 3'-flanking DNA to full-length thymidylate synthase cDNA. All three minigenes were expressed at approximately the same levels following transfection into hamster V79 cells that were deficient in thymidylate synthase. S1 nuclease protection assays revealed that the multiple 5' and 3' termini of thymidylate synthase mRNA in cells transfected with these minigenes were at the same positions as those of the normal mRNA in mouse cells. Deletion analysis of the promoter region revealed that minigenes extending to position -150 nucleotides (relative to the AUG codon) were expressed at approximately the same level as those extending to -1 kb. However, minigenes extending to -53 nucleotides were inactive. To determine if the minigenes were capable of being regulated in a cell cycle-dependent manner, thymidylate synthase gene expression was measured in hamster cells that were stably transfected with the largest minigene and synchronized by serum-stimulation. Thymidylate synthase enzyme level and mRNA content increased 3-5-fold as cells progressed from G1 through S phase.

激光、血卟啉对肿瘤细胞DNA单链断裂及其重接的影响

用简化的Kohn氏碱洗脱法,观察了光敏剂血卟啉衍生物(HPD)对小鼠S-180肿瘤细胞DNA单链断裂及其重接修复的影响。激光HPD能导致S-180细胞DNA单链断裂明显增加,而且这种断裂随着保温时间的延长,继续增多。在本实验条件下没有观察到HPD对X线的增敏作用,HPD不能增加X线所致的DNA单链断裂,也不能影响其重接。单链断裂重接动力学的实验进一步证明了这个论点。     

Generation of a recombinant Moloney murine leukemia virus carrying the v-src gene of avian sarcoma virus: transformation in vitro and pathogenesis in vivo.

A Moloney murine leukemia virus (M-MuLV) recombinant carrying the v-src gene of avian sarcoma virus was generated by the introduction of a cloned portion of v-src from Schmidt-Ruppin A avian sarcoma virus into a molecular clone of M-MuLV provirus at the recombinant DNA level. The v-src sequences (lacking a portion of the 5' end of v-src) were inserted into the p30 region of the M-MulV gag gene so that M-MuLV gag and v-src were in the same reading frame. Transfection of this chimeric clone, pMLV(src), into NIH 3T3 cells which were constitutively producing M-MuLV gag and pol protein resulted in the formation of foci of transformed cells. Infectious and transforming virus could be recovered from the transformed cells. This virus was designated M-MuLV(src). M-MuLV(src)-transformed cells contained two novel proteins of 78 and 90 kilodaltons. The 78-kilodalton protein, p78gag-src, contained both gag and src determinants, exhibited kinase activity in an immune kinase assay, and is probably a fusion of Pr65gag and src. The 90-kilodalton protein, which is of the appropriate size to be the gPr80gag fused to src, contained gag determinants as well as a V8 protease cleavage fragment typical of the carboxy terminus of avian sarcoma virus pp60src. However, it could not be immunoprecipitated with an anti-v-src serum. M-MuLV(src)-transformed cells showed elevated levels of intracellular phosphotyrosine in proteins, although the elevation was intermediate compared with cells transformed with wild-type v-src. M-MuLV and amphotropic murine leukemia virus pseudotypes of M-MuLV(src) were inoculated into newborn NIH Swiss mice. Inoculated mice developed solid tumors at the site of inoculation after 3 to 6 weeks, with most animals dying by 14 weeks. Histopathological analysis indicated that the solid tumors were mesenchymally derived fibrosarcomas that were both invasive and metastatic.     

Inhibitory effect of molecular hydrogen on C2H2-reducing activity in Anabaena 7120 preilluminated in red or blue light

Molecular hydrogen inhibits nitrogenase activity in Anabaena pre-illuminated with red or blue light. The inhibitory effect of molecular hydrogen decreased in the presence of oxygen and several electron acceptors. When NH₄Cl and urea were added simultaneously with molecular hydrogen, marked synergistic inhibitory effects took place. The inhibitory effect of molecular hydrogen disappeared or was weakened after the suppression of hydrogenase activity. The addition of O₂ and electron acceptors to systems showed no enhancing effect on the C₂H₂-reducing activity.
