慢性镉负荷雄性大鼠的睾丸及生殖内分泌功能活动

选择健康SD雄性成年大鼠60只,随机分成对照组（C组）、镉负荷中剂量组（M组）和镉负荷高剂量组（H组）,每天分别饲喂含镉0,5,10mg/kg的大鼠全价饲料,连续6周,研究了镉负荷对大鼠睾丸及生殖内分泌功能活动的影响。结果显示：在整个实验期内,M和H组大鼠睾丸组织中的镉含量极明显上升,锌含量销有下降,与对照组差异不显著;血浆镉、锌含量虽分别表现稍有升高和下降,但与对照组比较无明显差异;H组睾丸精子头计数和每日精子生成量在镉负荷第3周极显著下降,第6周时,M和H组均极明显低于对照组;在整个实验期内,H组大鼠ALP活明显低于C组;LDH－X活性在M和H组大鼠均极明显低于C组;M和H组血浆T水平下降,均低于或显著低于C组;3组间的FSH和LH水平无明显差异。结果提示：慢性镉负荷在睾丸组织中逐步蓄积可引起睾丸一些酶活性改变、精子生成减少及内分泌功能活动低下。     

PTSD促进大鼠中缝背核细胞色素c表达

目的研究创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)大鼠中缝背核神经元细胞色素C(Cyt-c)的表达变化。方法应用无连续单一刺激(SPS)方法建立PTSD大鼠模型,随机分为SPS刺激后1d、4d、7d和对照组,应用酶组织化学法和RT-PCR方法观察中缝背核神经元Cyt-c的表达变化。结果光镜酶细胞化学法和RT-PCR法显示中缝背核神经元Cyt-c染色阳性细胞于SPS刺激后1d明显高于对照组,4d逐渐增高,并于7d达到高峰。电镜下显示Cyt-c阳性反应产物主要分布在中缝背核神经元线粒体膜,SPS刺激后可见Cyt-c释放到胞浆中。结论 SPS刺激引起Cyt-c在PTSD大鼠中缝背核神经元呈过表达。     

杂交水稻及其“三系”线粒体DNA的AP—PCR指纹图谱

为了研究水稻（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ．）细胞质雄性不育（ＣＭＳ）与线粒体基因组的关系,应用ＡＰ－ＰＣＲ 分析,用７ 个任意单引物对６ 种水稻品系线粒体ＤＮＡ 进行了扩增。水稻线粒体ＤＮＡ 的ＡＰ－ＰＣＲ 产物可分为三种类型：（１）所有供试品系均能扩增的片段,它们代表了线粒体ＤＮＡ 在进化上的保守性序列。有４ 个引物检测到这类片段。（２）２ 个以上水稻品系共同出现而在全部供试材料间存在差异的扩增片段,这类片段是检测水稻线粒体ＤＮＡ多态性的主要来源。（３）一种细胞质类型所特有的扩增片段,从引物Ｒ２ 和Ｖ５ 的扩增产物中发现了这类片段,它们可能与ＣＭＳ有关联。另外,ＷＡ型不育系珍汕９７Ａ 与其杂种之间在６ 个引物的扩增图谱上均存在不同程度的差异,说明两者的线粒体ＤＮＡ序列结构可能存在某种差别     

磷脂酰丝氨酸合成酶基因的克隆及在枯草芽孢杆菌中的表达

新型冠状病毒纳米PCR快速检测方法的建立

新型冠状病毒(SARS-CoV-2)感染可导致致命性肺炎,且极具传染性。自2019年年末在我国出现以来,已在全球蔓延。为了建立一种灵敏、快速检测SARS-CoV-2的分子检测方法,本研究使用金纳米颗粒配合普通PCR检测方法,针对SARS-CoV-2核衣壳蛋白建立了SARS-CoV-2 NanoPCR新型分子检测方法。特异性结果显示,该方法对猪流行性腹泻病毒、牛冠状病毒、犬冠状病毒、水貂冠状病毒、猫传染性腹膜炎病毒均无交叉反应,表明该方法的特异性良好。敏感性结果显示,该方法的最低检测量为3.69×10⁴拷贝/μL,高于普通PCR最低检测量10倍,表明该方法的敏感性良好。使用建立的方法对3份临床样品进行检测,该方法与普通PCR方法结果一致,10倍稀释样品后,NanoPCR相比较普通PCR条带仍然具有较高辨识度。综上,本研究建立的灵敏、特异的NanoPCR方法可以对临床样品进行快速诊断和鉴定。     

Growth of Azospirillum irakense KBC1 on the Aryl β-Glucoside Salicin Requires either salA or salB

The rhizosphere nitrogen-fixing bacterium Azospirillum irakense KBC1 is able to grow on pectin and beta-glucosides such as cellobiose, arbutin, and salicin. Two adjacent genes, salA and salB, conferring beta-glucosidase activity to Escherichia coli, have been identified in a cosmid library of A. irakense DNA. The SalA and SalB enzymes preferentially hydrolyzed aryl beta-glucosides. A Delta(salA-salB) A. irakense mutant was not able to grow on salicin but could still utilize arbutin, cellobiose, and glucose for growth. This mutant could be complemented by either salA or salB, suggesting functional redundancy of these genes in salicin utilization. In contrast to this functional homology, the SalA and SalB proteins, members of family 3 of the glycosyl hydrolases, show a low degree of amino acid similarity. Unlike SalA, the SalB protein exhibits an atypical truncated C-terminal region. We propose that SalA and SalB are representatives of the AB and AB' subfamilies, respectively, in glycosyl hydrolase family 3. This is the first genetic implication of this beta-glucosidase family in the utilization of beta-glucosides for microbial growth.     

肽酶PepT参与副溶血弧菌的浮游运动和生物被膜形成

pepT基因编码一种金属依赖性肽酶T (peptidase T,PepT),能特异性催化三肽N端氨基酸,因此也称为氨肽酶T。研究发现大多数氨肽酶参与细菌蛋白质新陈代谢和调节三肽活性,但关于PepT在细菌毒力及致病性方面的报道较少。[目的]本文选取PepT为研究对象,研究其对副溶血弧菌生物学特性及致病性的影响。[方法]通过构建缺失株ΔpepT和回补株CΔpepT,比较菌株在运动性、生物被膜、环境耐受、细胞毒性等方面的差异。[结果]与野生株相比,ΔpepT缺失株的极性鞭毛转录水平极显著下降,浮游运动能力降低;同时生物被膜形成能力减弱,而细菌群集运动及环境耐受能力无显著差异。此外,缺失pepT基因会导致副溶血弧菌的细胞毒性和小鼠毒力作用显著下降。[结论]pepT基因与副溶血弧菌浮游运动和生物被膜形成能力相关,并且影响其致病性。     

Gangliosides of human, bovine, and rabbit plasma

Gangliosides were isolated from human, bovine, and rabbit plasma and were quantified by gas-liquid chromatography. Purification was achieved by sequential use of partitioning in solvents, DEAE-Sephadex chromatography, base treatment, and silicic acid chromatography. Human and bovine plasma yielded slightly more than 1 micro mole of lipid-bound sialic acid/100 ml; for rabbit plasma the value was 0.28 micro mole/100 ml. The total bovine plasma ganglioside fraction contained equal amounts of N-acetylneuraminic and N-glycolylneuraminic acids, rabbit plasma gangliosides had about 1% of the latter, and the human plasma sample contained only the former. Thin-layer chromatography revealed important differences among the plasmas from the three species, but all possessed hematosides and hexosamine-containing gangliosides. The approximate ratios of these two categories, based on sialic acid content, were (hematosides: hexosamine-type): human, 2:1; rabbit, 3:2; and bovine, 2:3. The fatty acid compositions of both categories were characteristic of extraneural gangliosides and included six major acids: palmitic, stearic, behenic, tricosanoic, lignoceric, and nervonic. The major long-chain base in each sample was sphingosine, while only a trace of the C(20) isomer was detected.
