奥沙利铂周围神经毒性模型大鼠行为学检测方法的比较

目的进行两种大鼠机械性痛觉敏感性测量方法、两种冷刺激缩足反应测量方法的比较研究。方法雌性Wistar大鼠,腹腔注射奥沙利铂4 mg/kg,建立标准奥沙利铂周围神经毒性大鼠模型。检测机械和冷热温度刺激下大鼠行为学变化,并对不同行为学检测方法的特点进行比较分析。结果模型组大鼠较正常组相比50%缩足阈明显降低(P0.05)、出现痛觉过敏及痛觉超敏(P0.05)、冷刺激诱发的缩足次数增多(P0.05),两组大鼠对热痛刺激反应均无明显差异,与临床患者症状表现基本一致。结论 Von Frey纤维丝刺激检测中4 g和15 g方法可更好的模拟临床患者的痛觉过敏、超敏反应;up-down法客观量化的反应出大鼠缩足阈值下降的程度。冷温度刺激中,丙酮喷洒法可较直观的观察大鼠受到冷刺激后的反应。     

Hair follicle stem cell progeny heal blisters while pausing skin development

Injury in adult tissue generally reactivates developmental programs to foster regeneration, but it is not known whether this paradigm applies to growing tissue. Here, by employing blisters, we show that epidermal wounds heal at the expense of skin development. The regenerated epidermis suppresses the expression of tissue morphogenesis genes accompanied by delayed hair follicle (HF) growth. Lineage tracing experiments, cell proliferation dynamics, and mathematical modeling reveal that the progeny of HF junctional zone stem cells, which undergo a morphological transformation, repair the blisters while not promoting HF development. In contrast, the contribution of interfollicular stem cell progeny to blister healing is small. These findings demonstrate that HF development can be sacrificed for the sake of epidermal wound regeneration. Our study elucidates the key cellular mechanism of wound healing in skin blistering diseases.     

Alteration of ethanol tolerance caused by the deficiency in the genes associated with histone deacetylase complex in budding yeast

Upon exposure to 8% ethanol, survival and growth of yeast strains deficient in histone deacetylase complex genes was examined. Of the 18 mutants tested, the Δsir3 and Δsir4 strains showed higher resistance to ethanol, while the Δrco1, Δhos3, Δhda2, and Δhst1 strains were more sensitive than the wild type. Furthermore, these ethanol-resistant patterns varied under aerobic and anaerobic culture conditions.     

江西吉安乌鸫的繁殖生态研究

2009～2010年对江西省吉安地区乌鸫Turdus merula的繁殖进行了调查研究,结果表明:当地乌鸫的营巢时间在3月9日至16日,产卵时间是3月18日至26日,平均窝卵数5.14(4～6)枚(n=14),平均卵大小29.71 mm×21.16 mm,平均卵重6.63 g(n=71).孵卵和暖巢主要由雌鸟承担,但雄鸟也有暖巢行为,孵化率为65.83%,育雏期13～15 d,离巢率高达100%.与高海拔的乌鸫相比,当地乌鸫产大窝小卵,这一特征保证了大窝雏数和高离巢率,繁殖对策属于r-选择.     

黑曲霉原生质体诱变选育果胶酶高产菌株

通过UV和NTG诱变筛选获得了2株高产果胶酶突变株。以果胶酶产生菌黑曲霉EIM6为诱变材料,采用1．5％的溶壁酶和1．5％的纤维素酶处理其对教生长期菌丝体2h获得高质量的原生质体。采用UV25S或50μg／mL NTG诱变30min,构建原生质体突变库,经刚果红果胶平板筛选获得果胶酶突变株,通过液体深层培养复筛获得高产突变株EIM6-U11、EIM6-N5,酶活力分别从46598．08、46598．08U／mL提高至68596．57、68879．56U／mL,分别提高了47．21％、47．82％。连续8次传代经发酵测酶活力表明高产突变株EIM6-U11、EIM6-N5具有较高的遗传稳定性。

Prostaglandin E2 receptor type 2-selective agonist prevents the degeneration of articular cartilage in rabbit knees with traumatic instability

Introduction

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common cause of disability in older adults. We have previously reported that an agonist for subtypes EP2 of the prostaglandin E2 receptor (an EP2 agonist) promotes the regeneration of chondral and osteochondral defects. The purpose of the current study is to analyze the effect of this agonist on articular cartilage in a model of traumatic degeneration.

Methods

The model of traumatic degeneration was established through transection of the anterior cruciate ligament and partial resection of the medial meniscus of the rabbits. Rabbits were divided into 5 groups; G-S (sham operation), G-C (no further treatment), G-0, G-80, and G-400 (single intra-articular administration of gelatin hydrogel containing 0, 80, and 400 μg of the specific EP2 agonist, ONO-8815Ly, respectively). Degeneration of the articular cartilage was evaluated at 2 or 12 weeks after the operation.

Results

ONO-8815Ly prevented cartilage degeneration at 2 weeks, which was associated with the inhibition of matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13) expression. The effect of ONO-8815Ly failed to last, and no effects were observed at 12 weeks after the operation.

Conclusions

Stimulation of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) via EP2 prevents degeneration of the articular cartilage during the early stages. With a system to deliver it long term, the EP2 agonist could be a new therapeutic tool for OA.
