胞外H2O2及NADPH氧化酶参与了铜胁迫对植物细胞死亡的诱导

以烟草悬浮细胞BY-2(Nicotiana tabacum L.cv.Bright Yellow-2)为材料,探讨了在铜离子胁迫下植物细胞死亡发生过程中胞外H₂O₂及NADPH氧化酶所扮演的角色。实验结果表明,随着外源CuCl₂浓度的上升(从0~700 μmol·L^-1),细胞死亡水平不断上升,且胞外H₂O₂的水平也不断增加。在300 μmol·L^-1的CuCl₂诱导细胞死亡的过程中,加入H₂O₂清除剂N-N-二甲基硫脲(DMTU)降低了胞外CuCl₂胁迫下H₂O₂含量增加的同时也降低了细胞死亡水平的上升,这一观察表明了铜离子胁迫所导致的细胞死亡的发生和胞外H₂O₂的增加有关。进一步的研究表明,300 μmol·L^-1 CuCl₂的胁迫导致了NADPH氧化酶活性的显著性上升,而加入NADPH氧化酶的抑制剂（二亚苯基碘,DPI,)则降低了CuCl₂胁迫所导致的细胞死亡和胞外H₂O₂含量的上升。上述结果表明,胞外H₂O₂和NADPH氧化酶参与了CuCl₂对植物细胞死亡的诱导作用。     

Molecular systematics of four endemic Batrachospermaceae (Rhodophyta) species in China with multilocus data

Four endemic Batrachospermaceae species in China, Batrachospermum hongdongense Xie & Feng, Batrachospermum longipedicellatum Hua & Shi, Kumanoa curvata (Shi) Vis et al., and Kumanoa intorta (Jao) Entwisle et al., were analyzed with multilocus data in order to assess their phylogenetic placement. Multilocus molecular data from one nuclear gene (the ribosomal SSU), one chloroplast gene (rbcL), and two mitochondrial genes (COI and the cox2-3 spacer) as well as morphological studies were used to determine the phylogenetic relationships of these endemic species within the Batrachospermales. Batrachospermum hongdongense and B. longipedicellatum had previously been placed in Batrachospermum section Batrachospermum, but based on the data from this study they should be transferred into section Helminthoidea. Kumanoa curvata and K. intorta clearly belong to the newly established genus Kumanoa.     

西双版纳地区降雨和食物资源可获得程度对犬蝠分娩时机的影响

繁殖是动物权衡不同自然选择压力和自身生理限制的结果。蝙蝠的繁殖受气候(温度、光周期和降雨量)和食物资源等非生物因素影响。本文通过野外调查犬蝠食物资源、设网捕捉和标志重捕的方法研究西双版纳地区降雨、食物资源可获得程度对犬蝠分娩时机的影响。研究发现,随着3 - 8 月降雨量逐渐增加(19.82 -41.13 kg/ m2 ),犬蝠取食的植物种类呈明显的增加趋势(4 - 9 种)。幼蝠捕捉量与植物资源可获得程度呈显著正相关关系(r = 0. 94,P = 0.01)。西双版纳犬蝠虽然具有一年两次动情和分娩的能力,但是绝大多数个体一年只分娩一次,且集中于3 -5 月。犬蝠分娩时机的选择使得幼蝠飞行学习和捕食时间与食物资源可获得程度高峰期相吻合,有利于提高幼体的生存适合度。     

自噬体膜的来源

细胞自噬是指细胞通过自噬-溶酶体(autolysosome)降解变性蛋白聚集物和受损细胞器的过程. 自噬对于细胞内环境的稳态、物质的平衡、胚胎发育以及疾病的发生发挥重要作用. 在电镜下观察,自噬体膜是一个双层脂质膜结构. 细胞中因缺乏除了自噬相关蛋白9 (autophagy-related protein 9,ATG9)以外的自噬体膜相关蛋白,故难以确定自噬体膜的来源. 自噬体膜的来源也因此成为目前自噬研究领域的热点问题. 关于自噬体膜的来源,学术界存在两种观点：一种认为自噬体膜是细胞在自噬体组装位点(pre-autophagosomal structure, PAS)重新合成的;另一种观点则认为自噬体膜来源于细胞已有的某些细胞器(如内质网、高尔基体、内吞体、质膜和线粒体). 该文综述了近年有关自噬体膜来源于细胞已有的某些细胞器的研究进展,旨在为相关领域的研究提供参考.     

白灵侧耳栽培过程中胞外酶和呼吸酶活及离子流速的研究

研究了白灵侧耳Pleurotus nebrodensis栽培过程中生长发育各阶段的漆酶、羧甲基纤维素酶（CMC酶）、半纤维素酶和淀粉酶等4种胞外酶及苹果酸脱氢酶、葡萄糖-6-脱氢酶和6-磷酸葡萄糖酸脱氢酶等3种呼吸酶的活性变化,同时测定了菌丝表面H+、K+、Ca2+离子流速。结果表明,整个生育期的胞外酶活性变化具有明显的阶段性。漆酶酶活在菌丝生长阶段第28天时达到最大值,纤维素酶和半纤维素酶酶活在子实体生长阶段第107天时达到最大值,子实体收获后活性下降,而淀粉酶活性在各时期均比较低,说明白灵侧耳对木质素类物质利用最早。苹果酸脱氢酶、葡萄糖-6-脱氢酶和6-磷酸葡萄糖酸脱氢酶酶活在后熟期、温差刺激及子实体生长期出现3个峰值。整个栽培周期的菌丝表面H+、K+、Ca2+离子流速各个阶段有不同的变化规律,Ca2+在菌丝生长阶段内流,从后熟期开始外排,K+和H+在整个周期外排;C/N和温度对离子的流速有一定的影响。

Precambrian animal life: Taphonomy of phosphatized metazoan embryos from southwest China

Phosphatized fossils from the Neoproterozoic Doushantuo Formation have provided valuable insight into the early evolution of metazoans, but the preservation of these spectacular fossils is not yet fully understood. This research begins to address this issue by performing a detailed specimen-based taphonomic analysis of the Doushantuo Formation phosphatized metazoan embryos. A total of 206 embryos in 65 thin sections from the Weng'an Phosphorite Member of the Doushantuo Formation were examined and their levels of pre-phosphatization decay estimated. The data produced from this examination reveal a strong taphonomic bias toward earlier (2-cell and 4-cell) cleavage stages, which tend to be well-preserved, and away from later (8-cell and 16-cell) cleavage stages, which tend to exhibit evidence for slight to intense levels of organic decay. In addition, the natural abundances of these embryos tend to decrease with advancement in cleavage stage, and no evidence of more advanced (beyond 16-cell) cleavage stages or eventual adult forms were found in this study. One possible explanation for this taphonomic bias toward early cleavage stages is that later cleavage stages and adult forms were more physically delicate, allowing them to be more easily damaged during burial and reworking, allowing for more rapid decay. The spectacular preservation of these embryos was probably aided by their likely internal enrichment in phosphate-rich yolk, which would have caused their internal dissolved phosphate levels to reach critical levels with only miniscule organic decay, thereby hastening phosphatization. If internal sources of phosphate did indeed play a role in the phosphatization of these embryos, it may explain their prolific abundance in these rocks compared to other phosphatized fossils as well as indicating that metazoans lacking such internal phosphate sources were likely much more difficult to preserve. The phosphatic fossils of the Doushantuo Formation, therefore, provide an indispensable, yet restricted, window into Neoproterozoic life and metazoan origins.
