金沙江河谷特有植物罂粟莲花的保护遗传学

毛茛科的罂粟莲花(Anemoclema glaucifolium)是中国西南部金沙江河谷地带特有的单种属植物。本研究利用分子生物学手段（SNPs）,对罂粟莲花的遗传多样性和遗传结构进行了研究。三个叶绿体片段(rps16内含子,psbA trnH 基因间隔区以及trnC ycf6基因间隔区)联合分析的结果显示低的遗传多样性和高的遗传分化。这可能是由于居群间长期的地理隔离,狭小的分布区以及生境片段化造成的有限的基因流所引起的。如今在金沙江上修建水电站的位置与罂粟莲花的分布区有部分重叠,这些水电站会淹没罂粟莲花的部分个体和生境,并且改变生态环境,威胁罂粟莲花的生存。本研究对罂粟莲花遗传多样性的研究为制定有效的保护策略提供了信息。

不同芥酸含量油菜品系FAD2基因克隆测序分析

对高芥酸品系M136、0Coγ辐照得到的高芥酸油菜突变体H27和低芥酸品系742的FAD2基因克隆并测序。结果发现,FAD2基因存在两个拷贝FAD2.1(1155bp)、FAD2.2(1140bp)。H27的FAD2.1与M13序列相同,但FAD2.2核苷酸序列中M13在409位点A(腺嘌呤)变成了T(鸟嘌呤),导致密码子由AGA变换为TGA(终止密码子),使H27中的FAD2.2基因的功能丧失,这可能是芥酸含量的提高原因。     

Effects of Intra-Operative Total Intravenous Anaesthesia with Propofol versus Inhalational Anaesthesia with Sevoflurane on Post-Operative Pain in Liver Surgery: A Retrospective Case-Control Study

Background

Patients receiving total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA) with propofol have been shown to experience less postoperative pain. We evaluated the post-operative analgesic effects of propofol compared with sevoflurane maintenance of anesthesia in liver surgery. This study was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov ({"type":"clinical-trial","attrs":{"text":"NCT02179437","term_id":"NCT02179437"}}NCT02179437).

Methods

In this retrospective study, records of patients who underwent liver surgery between 2010 and 2013 were reviewed. Ninety-five patients anesthetized with propofol TIVA were matched with 95 patients anesthetized with sevoflurane. Numeric pain rating scale (NRS) pain scores, postoperative morphine consumption, side effects and patients’ satisfaction with pain relief were evaluated.

Results

The TIVA group reported lower NRS pain scores during coughing on postoperative days 1 and 2 but not 3 (p = 0.0127, p = 0.0472, p = 0.4556 respectively). They also consumed significantly less daily (p = 0.001 on day 1, p = 0.0231 on day 2, p = 0.0004 on day 3), accumulative (p = 0.001 on day 1, p<0.0001 on day 2 and p = 0.0064 on day 3) and total morphine (p = 0.03) when compared with the sevoflurane group. There were no differences in total duration of intravenous patient controlled analgesia (PCA) morphine use and patient satisfaction. No difference was found in reported side effects.

Conclusion

Patients anesthetized with propofol TIVA reported less pain during coughing and consumed less daily, accumulative and total morphine after liver surgery.

Regulation of cell proliferation by fast Myosin light chain 1 in myoblasts derived from extraocular muscle, diaphragm and gastrocnemius

The extraocular muscle (EOM) suffers much less injury from Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) than other skeletal muscles such as diaphragm and gastrocnemius. The present study was undertaken to test the hypothesis that differential expression of regulatory proteins between the EOM and other skeletal muscles is responsible for the observed difference in the sensitivity to DMD-associated damage. Protein expression in the tissue samples obtained from EOM, diaphragm or gastrocnemius of C57BL/6 mice was analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry. There were 35 proteins that were identified to be differentially expressed among different skeletal muscle tissues. Among the 35 proteins, a fast skeletal muscle isoform myosin light chain 1 (MLC1f) protein was further studied in relation to muscle cell proliferation. The EOM-derived myoblasts had much lower levels of MLC1f and higher rate of cell proliferation in contrast to the myoblasts derived from diaphragm or gastrocnemius, which displayed a higher expression of MLC1f along with a slow proliferation. Deletion of MLC1f using siRNA targeting MLC1f resulted in an increased rate of cell proliferation in the myoblasts. Cell cycle analysis revealed that MLC1f inhibited the transition of the cell cycle from the G1 to the S phase. Therefore, the present study demonstrates that MLC1f may negatively regulate proliferation of myoblasts through inhibition of the transition from the G1 to the S phase of the cell cycle. Low levels of MLC1f in myoblasts of EOM may ensure cell proliferation and enhance the repair process for EOM under the DMD disease condition, thus making EOM suffer less injury from DMD.
