对子莲（Nelumbo nucifera Gaertn.）新品种‘武植子莲1号’和‘武植子莲2号’与其他12个主栽子莲品种的莲子产量和品质性状进行分析,并通过隶属函数分析法对他们的营养品质性状进行综合评价。结果显示：不同子莲品种的产量和营养品质性状差异显著,同一品种在不同发育时期莲子的可溶性糖和淀粉含量等营养指标差异较大;鲜莲子的可溶性糖含量显著高于成熟莲子,而蛋白质和淀粉含量显著低于成熟莲子。与12个主栽子莲品种相比,‘武植子莲1号’在产量上较为突出,成熟莲子的淀粉含量达52.15%,是生产天然淀粉的优良品种;‘武植子莲2号’鲜莲子的直链淀粉和支链淀粉含量低,可溶性糖含量达23.43%,适合鲜食。隶属函数分析结果表明,‘武植子莲1号’和‘武植子莲2号’的综合营养品质较好,具有很高的应用价值。     

心房利钠肽样免疫反应神经元在大鼠中脑和脑桥中某些锥体外系神经核内的分布

采用PAP免疫组织化学方法对大鼠中脑和脑桥内心房利钠肽(ANP)样免疫反应神经元的分布进行了研究,结果显示阳性神经元除存在于其他作者报导过的导水管周围灰质、Edinger-Westphal核、中缝核、脚间核和蓝斑核外,还存在于属于锥体外系的红核、黑质和脑桥核内,因此,推测脑内的ANP可能在锥外系对躯体运动的调节中起着一种神经递质或神经调质的作用。这为脑内ANP可能具有与液体和电解质平衡以及心血管功能的调节无关的其它作用提供了部分形态学证据。

用固定化方法研究超氧化物歧化酶的活性与结构的关系

 采用吸附、包埋、共价交联等方法固定化超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)所得固定化酶活力回收都不高,表明酶的催化反应速率受超氧阴离子自由基(O_2~-)扩散速率的控制。用海藻酸钠包埋SOD,固定化酶不表现活力,破固定化后所得的糊状物却有很高的活力。用戊二醛交联所得的固定化酶活力回收率也很低,表明ε-NH_3~+的正电荷是酶活力所必需。     

Protein and nuclear changes in pig eggs at fertilization.

The nuclear restructuring that occurs between insemination and full pronuclear formation in pig eggs is accompanied by posttranslational changes to specific egg proteins. Sperm penetration begins in vitro at 3 hr postinsemination (hpi). By 5 hr, decondensing sperm heads and anaphase II plates are observed in 50% of eggs, and, by 8 hpi, both male and female pronuclei have formed. Three consistent changes to the pattern of newly synthesised proteins are triggered in this period; they affect the 46K, 25K, and 22K polypeptides. Changes are also triggered in the 180-200K polypeptides and in the 14K polypeptides, but these are highly variable. The same changes in the prefertilization pattern were observed when prelabelled eggs were used and new protein synthesis was suppressed. The first and most abrupt change involves the apparent catabolic elimination of a group of 46K unphosphorylated polypeptides (pl 7.3-6.4), whose synthesis was greatest before germinal vesicle breakdown but declined slowly in the final phase of maturation, then declined precipitously after activation. Ageing (beyond maturation) also leads to the disappearance of these polypeptides. The progressive disappearance of a set of 25K polypeptides and the concomitant appearance of a dominant 22K polypeptide is the most characteristic fertilization-induced modification to porcine egg proteins. These modifications begin within 1 hr of sperm penetration or activation, are specific to the pig, and involve heavily phosphorylated polypeptides (25K, pl 6.7-6.0) whose synthesis is begun in the early metaphase I stage. Dual ([35S] and [32P]) labelling, protein blocking experiments, and use of alkaline phosphatase suggest that dephosphorylation selectively affects these 25K polypeptides and is mainly or wholly responsible for converting them (completely within 6 hr) to a single, new (22K, pl 7.6) species that is positively charged. The 25K/22K polypeptide modification has a close temporal relationship with the formation of the male and female pronuclei.     

Evidence of synergy between Thy-1 and CD3/TCR complex in signal delivery to murine thymocytes for cell death.

The potential role of Thy-1 in CD3/TCR complex-mediated signal delivery to murine thymocytes was studied. Ag-mimicking cross-linked anti-CD3 mAb stimulated suspension of thymocytes from adult (6 to 8 wk old) mice for a brisk free cytoplasmic calcium ion ([Ca2+]i) rise, low level of inositol phosphate production, and marginal increase in tyrosine-specific phosphorylation of 110/120-kDa and 40-kDa cellular proteins. Weak but sustained [Ca2+]i rise, low inositol phosphate production, and weak protein tyrosine phosphorylation were also induced by the cross-linked anti-Thy-1 mAb that mimicked the putative natural ligand. The signal delivered via either of these two pathways was however insufficient for definitively promoting cell death and DNA fragmentation in the adult thymocytes. Here we demonstrated that anti-Thy-1 mAb synergized with anti-CD3 mAb for inducing a long-lasting prominent [Ca2+]i rise, definite inositol 1,4,5-triphosphate and inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakiphosphate production, and extensive tyrosine-specific phosphorylation of 110/120-, 92-, 75-, and 40-kDa proteins, which resulted in marked promotion of cell death and DNA fragmentation in the adult thymocytes. This unique anti-Thy-1 antibody activity was confirmed to be directed to glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored Thy-1, and was distinguished from the known anti-L3T4 activity that augmented the CD3-mediated signal transduction in a different manner. The synergistic actions of anti-CD3 and anti-Thy-1 mAb obligatorily required the cross-linking of the two mAb together. The anti-CD3 and anti-Thy-1 mAb cross-linked together acted on immature thymocytes from newborn (less than 24 h after birth) mice for rather more extensive promotion of protein tyrosine phosphorylation and cell death. In addition, they affected peripheral T lymphocytes for accelerating protein tyrosine phosphorylation but not cell death. These results suggest a novel function of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored Thy-1 as a possible unique intrathymic intensifier of the CD3/TCR complex-delivered signal for negative thymocyte selection.

“雄茭”、灰茭形成规律的初步研究

茭白栽培过程中,常会出现“雄茭”和灰茭分蘖。根据对茭白的形态学观察,认识到:“雄茭”分蘖的产生是分蘖期母茎中茭白黑粉菌菌丝未能入侵新生分蘖腋芽而导致的结果;灰茭分蘖是因其菌丝的潜育期比正常茭短,故在苗端的膨大部分较早地产生了不同程度的黑粉孢子堆。
