高原鼠兔氧比传导特征的实验研究

本实验采用国外新近提出的一项能综合评价机体气体交换系统中各氧降阶差时运氧能力的适应水平高低的重要指标──氧比传导（ＭＯ２－ＳＣ）,研究了高原鼠兔气体交换系统运氧能力的低氧适应特征及规律。结果表明,对照条件下,在吸入气（Ｉ）至肺泡气（Ａ）（Ｉ→Ａ）、Ａ至动脉血（ａ）（Ａ→ａ）、ａ至混合静脉血（ｖ）（ａ→ｖ）及Ｉ→ｖ各阶差中,以Ａ→ａ的ＭＯ２－ＳＣ运氧能力最大。低氧１５ｍｍ后,Ｉ→Ａ及ａ→ｖ的ＭＯ２－ＳＣ均显著升高,并以Ｉ→Ａ增加最为显著,该水平运氧能力是对照的２倍,增长１２０．９％;而Ａ→ａ及Ｉ→ｖＭＯ２－ＳＣ变化无显著性差异。低氧３０ｍｉｎ时,Ｉ→Ａ的ＭＯ２－ＳＣ继续显著增长,运氧能力是对照的２．７倍,增长１７０．７％,其余３个氧降阶差的ＭＯ２－ＳＣ无显著性改变。以上结果表明,高原鼠兔低氧代偿贮备较大,尤以肺泡气至动脉血阶差最为重要,而通气氧传导能力的增强也是高原鼠兔低氧适应的主要原因。     

A betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene in quinoa (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Chenopodium quinoa</Emphasis>): structure,phylogeny, and expression pattern

Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) is widely considered as a key enzyme in glycine betaine metabolism in higher plants. Several paralogous genes encoding different isozymes of BADH have been identified and characterized in some plants; however, until now, only limited information is available about BADH genes in quinoa (Chenopodium quinoa). Here, we report the molecular cloning, structural organization, phylogenetic evolution, and expression profile of a BADH gene (CqBADH1) from quinoa. The translated putative CqBADH1 protein included five conserved features of the ALDH Family 10. Comparisons between the cDNA and genomic sequences revealed that the CqBADH1 gene contained 15 exons and 14 introns. Comparative screening of introns in homologous genes demonstrated that the number and position of the BADH introns were highly conserved among the BADH genes in Amaranthaceae plants and in other more distantly related plant species. A phylogenetic analysis showed that CqBADH1 had the closest relationship with a protein from Atriplex canescens and belonged to the ALDH10 family. Expression profile analyses indicated that CqBADH1 was expressed only in root, and showed time-dependent expression profiles under NaCl-stress condition. Moreover, in quinoa, NaCl stress led to increased levels of CqBADH1 mRNA accompanied by the accumulation of glycine betaine. This is the first study to describe a BADH gene in quinoa.

A Microarray-Based Analysis Reveals that a Short Photoperiod Promotes Hair Growth in the Arbas Cashmere Goat

Many animals exhibit different behaviors in different seasons. The photoperiod can have effects on migration, breeding, fur growth, and other processes. The cyclic growth of the fur and feathers of some species of mammals and birds, respectively, is stimulated by the photoperiod as a result of hormone-dependent regulation of the nervous system. To further examine this phenomenon, we evaluated the Arbas Cashmere goat (Capra hircus), a species that is often used in this type of research. The goats were exposed to an experimentally controlled short photoperiod to study the regulation of cyclic cashmere growth. Exposure to a short photoperiod extended the anagen phase of the Cashmere goat hair follicle to increase cashmere production. Assessments of tissue sections indicated that the short photoperiod significantly induced cashmere growth. This conclusion was supported by a comparison of the differences in gene expression between the short photoperiod and natural conditions using gene chip technology. Using the gene chip data, we identified genes that showed altered expression under the short photoperiod compared to natural conditions, and these genes were found to be involved in the biological processes of hair follicle growth, structural composition of the hair follicle, and the morphogenesis of the surrounding skin appendages. Knowledge about differences in the expression of these genes as well as their functions and periodic regulation patterns increases our understanding of Cashmere goat hair follicle growth. This study also provides preliminary data that may be useful for the development of an artificial method to improve cashmere production by controlling the light cycle, which has practical significance for livestock breeding.     

小鼠BW5147细胞与网织红细胞融合后cAMP水平及其磷酸二酯酶的细胞化学观察

本实验用PEG介导,将小鼠BW_(5147)细胞与小鼠网织红细胞在体外进行悬浮融合,经HAT选择性培养基筛选获得的胞质杂交细胞,表现出增殖减慢、生长率下降、生瘤能力降低等去恶化现象。本实验从cAMP-PDE细胞化学反应显示出胞质杂交细胞内cAMP-PDE活性比亲本BW_(5147)瘤细胞有所减弱,而cAMP水平则有所升高,提示胞质杂交细胞恶性程度下降可能与细胞内cAMP-PDE活性降低和cAMP水平升高具有一定的关系。本实验的结果将为进一步探索促使肿瘤细胞逆转的可能途径提供一定的依据。

Generating-sensation and propagating-myoelectrical

The meridian phenomena are closely associated with the neuro-muscular function. Our experiments show that meridian phenomenon, acupoint stimulation-induced generating-sensations along meridians (GSM), does exist in some volunteers, and the subjects can describe the characteristics of the feelings and the route of GSM. Simultaneously, GSM is often accompanied with progressive myoelectric activity along the meridian which is able to be recorded objectively. Bra-chial plexus anesthesia and regional neuro-muscular block may arrest these responses while the neuro-muscular blocking agent may stop neuromuscular transmission at the motor end-plate rather than check GSM. The facts reveal that GSM probably depends on muscular activity and is involved in the secondary neuro-muscular excitation propagating along the longitudinal axis of muscles. These findings suggest that the myoelectric activities constitute the foundation of secondarily generating-sensation propagating along the longitudinal orientation of limbs
