Epimerization of Hydroxyl Group in Lupan Series Triterpenoids

Two methods of obtaining 3-betulinic acid and related compounds from their 3-epimers were studied: the reaction of bimolecular substitution and the stereoselective reduction of 3-ketoderivatives. The substitution of acyloxy by formyloxy group in 3--tosyllupeol or of the belulin hydroxyl by benzoyloxy group resulted only in ^{2, 3}-elimination products, with none of the expected products of bimolecular substitution being found. The catalytic hydrogenation of betulonic acid over Raney nickel resulted only in reduction of the isopropenyl double bond, whereas the use of 5% Ru/C gave a 60 : 40 mixture of epimers of dihydrobetulinic acid. Practically the same mixture of betulinic acid epimers was obtained when reducing betulonic acid with L-Selectride. The cytotoxic activity of 3-betulinic acid increased toward the Bro melanoma cells and decreased toward the MS melanoma cells.     

细胞因子基因转导对人乳腺癌细胞MHC抗原及细胞膜糖蛋白表达的影响

为探讨细胞因子基因(人IL-2、IL-6)转导对于肿瘤细胞膜MHC抗原及细胞膜糖蛋白表达调控的影响,本文利用脂质体介导的方法,将含人IL-6、IL-2基因的逆转录病毒载体分别导入人乳腺癌细胞系MCF-7细胞中,采用间接免疫荧光染色流式细胞仪测定法,对基因转导的瘤细胞细胞膜糖蛋白及MHC抗原表达进行测定。结果表明经两种基因修饰的MCF-7细胞MHCⅠ型抗原表达均获得增强,此外,基因转导细胞可程度不同地表现出细胞膜多种糖蛋白表达的变化。提示肿瘤细胞膜抗原及糖蛋白表达的改变可能是细胞因子基因转导影响肿瘤细胞免疫原性的重要结构基础。     

海南俄贤岭石灰岩山地海南大戟灌丛群落研究

根据样方调查,对海南俄贤岭自然保护区海南大戟灌丛群落的种类组成、外貌、结构特征和物种多样性进行分析。结果表明,在700m2样地中,有维管植物77种,隶属于47科70属。群落中乔木的个体数量很少,主要由灌木和草本组成,灌木层主要优势种为海南大戟等。群落外貌常绿,生活型以小高位芽为主,占22.08%;按照Raunkiaer的频度等级定律,属于B级的种类最多,频度值为43.42。整个群落的物种丰富度Magarlef指数为8.56,Shannon-Wiener指数为1.38,Simposon为0.90,均匀度指数为0.32。群落各层次的丰富度格局表现为灌木层>草本层>乔木层>藤本植物,多样性格局为灌木层>乔木层>草本层<(>)藤本植物,均匀度格局为乔木层>藤本植物>灌木层>草本层。     

海南鹦哥岭自然保护区的珍稀濒危植物与保育

对鹦哥岭的珍稀濒危植物进行野外调查表明,本区共有野生分布的珍稀濒危植物79种,隶属于47科71属。其中属于1999年国家重点一级保护4种,如海南苏铁(Cycas hainansis)、坡垒(Hopea hainansis)、台湾苏铁(Cy-cas taiwaniana)和伯乐树(Bretschneidera sinensis),国家二级保护14种。建议将18种列入国家保护名录中,20种列入省级保护名录,其中有30种为海南特有种。鹦哥岭珍稀濒危植物面临的威胁主要有原始森林面积的减少、人为毁林开荒和分布区限制。针对珍稀濒危植物的现状和受到的威胁,提出了应重点加强保护的6个地点及相应的保护对策和建议。     

Substrate phase state and time factor in variability of human fecal microbiota

Effects of substrate phase state and time factor on variability of human fecal microbiota were studied. It was shown that microecological system of native feces was characterized by marked time-dependent variability. It is unstable and begins to destruct after 24 hours of cultivation. The most sensitive elements of the system were bifidobacteria and Escherichia coli. Change of phase state of biotope eliminated the effect of factor limiting the microecosystem development, which allowed species of obligate and transitory microflora to freely colonize the growth substrate and interact with each other. The mentioned facts demonstrate that fecal microbiota exists in the environment of excess of growth substrate, which colonization is limited by cluster structure of biotope of native feces. It was concluded that phase state of growth substrate and duration of cultivation are important factors determining the population variability of fecal microbiota.

Anisomycin诱导小鼠艾氏腹水癌细胞凋亡

目的：探讨Anisomycin诱导EAC细胞凋亡的机制。方法：利用MTT法观察Anisomycin对EAC细胞增殖的影响;应用An．nexinV—FITC和PI双染色检测Anisomycin作用下EAC细胞凋亡的变化;琼脂糖凝胶电泳检测Anisomycin作用下EAC细胞的DNA断裂片断;采用RT—PCR检测Anisomycin作用下Caspase-3mRNA的转录水平;WesternBlot分析Anisomycin处理的EAC细胞内Caspase-3蛋白的表达。结果：Anisomycin对EAC细胞增殖的抑制率随浓度的升高而增高,EAC细胞的凋亡水平也上升,随着Anisomycin浓度升高EAC细胞DNA断裂的寡核苷酸片段亦越趋明显,Caspase-3的mRNA和蛋白水平也上调,并明显高于阿霉素组。结论：结果表明,Anisomycin能够抑制EAC细胞的增殖,在体外可能通过激活Caspase-3凋亡信号而诱导EAC细胞的凋亡。
