The Influence of Auxin and Cytokinin on Proliferation and Morphology of Somatic Embryos of Picea abies (L.) Karst

Embryogenic cell-lines of Picea abies were initiated from maturezygotic embryos and cultured on medium containing 2,4-D andBA The cell-lines were categorized into two main groups (solar/polarand undeveloped embryos), based on the morphology of the somaticembryos and their ability to go through a maturation processwhen treated with ABA The cell-lines were transferred to mediacontaining (1) 2,4-D and BA, (2) only BA, (3) only 2,4-D or(4) no growth regulators When cultured on a medium containingboth 2,4-D and BA new somatic embryos were continually formedIn contrast, when they were cultured without one or both ofthe growth regulators no new somatic embryos were formed Solar/polarand undeveloped embryos responded in the same way On a mediumcontaining only BA the somatic embryos already present increasedin size and developed an extremely large embryonic region Ona medium containing only 2,4-D the embryos already present becamedisorganized into loose aggregates When transferred from a mediumcontaining both 2,4-D and BA to one containing ABA, mature somaticembryos developed from the solar/polar type but not from theundeveloped type The ability of the solar/polar somatic embryosto go through a maturation process decreased when they wereprecultured on a medium lacking auxin and was lost when theywere precultured on medium lacking cytokinin The cell-linescontaining undeveloped somatic embryos produced mature somaticembryos in one cell-line out of three that had been culturedon the medium containing only BA Auxin, cytokinin, embryogenic cultures, Norway spruce, somatic embryos, Picea abies (L.)

Computational analysis of pediatric ventricular assist device implantation to decrease cerebral particulate embolization

Stroke is the most devastating complication after ventricular assist device (VAD) implantation with a 19% incidence and 65% mortality in the pediatric population. Current pediatric VAD technology and anticoagulation strategies alone are suboptimal. VAD implantation assisted by computational methods (CFD) may contribute reducing the risk of cerebral embolization. Representative three-dimensional aortic arch models of an infant and a child were generated. An 8 mm VAD outflow-graft (VAD-OG) anastomosed to the aorta was rendered and CFD was applied to study blood flow patterns. Particle tracks, originating in the VAD, were computed with a Lagrangian phase model and the percentage of particles entering the cerebral vessels was calculated. Eight implantation configurations (infant = 5 and child = 3) and 5 particle sizes (0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 4 mm) were considered. For the infant model, percentage of particles entering the cerebral vessels ranged from 15% for a VAD-OG anastomosed at 90° to the aorta, to 31% for 30° VAD-OG anastomosis (overall percentages: X² = 10,852, p < 0.0001). For the child model, cerebral embolization ranged from 9% for the 30° VAD-OG anastomosis to 15% for the 60° anastomosis (overall percentages: χ² = 10,323, p < 0.0001). Using detailed CFD calculations, we demonstrate that the risk of stroke depends significantly on the VAD implantation geometry. In turn, the risk probably depends on patient-specific anatomy. CFD can be used to optimize VAD implantation geometry to minimize stroke risk.     

Mapping of putative binding sites on the ectodomain of the type II TGF-beta receptor by scanning-deletion mutagenesis and knowledge-based modeling.

Binding surfaces of the type II transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta receptor extracellular domain (TbetaRII-ECD) are mapped by combining scanning-deletion mutagenesis results with knowledge-based modeling of the ectodomain structure. Of the 17 deletion mutants produced within the core binding domain of TbetaRII-ECD, only three retained binding to TGF-beta. Comparative modeling based on the crystal structure of the activin type II receptor extracellular domain (ActRII-ECD) indicates that the TbetaRII mutants which retain TGF-beta binding are deleted in some of the loops connecting the beta-strands in the TbetaRII-ECD model. Interpretation of the mutagenesis data within the structural framework of the ectodomain model allows for the prediction of potential binding sites at the surface of TbetaRII-ECD.     

四种植物精油对黑翅土白蚁触杀和驱避作用

为筛选出高效防治黑翅土白蚁的天然植物精油,减少有机合成农药的使用,该文研究了大蒜精油、肉桂油、丁香油和印楝素油四种植物精油对黑翅土白蚁的触杀效果和驱避作用。结果表明:大蒜精油、肉桂油和丁香油的浓度为5和10 mg·m L~(-1)时,处理2 h后,黑翅土白蚁的校正死亡率达100%,而相同浓度的印楝素油和对照处理的黑翅土白蚁校正死亡率低于5%。随着处理时间延长,浓度为1.25和2.5 mg·m L~(-1)的大蒜精油、肉桂油和丁香油处理6 h时,黑翅土白蚁的校正死亡率仍达100%,而此时对应的印楝素油和对照处理的黑翅土白蚁校正死亡率仅为10%,说明大蒜精油、肉桂油和丁香油对黑翅土白蚁具有较强的触杀效果。大蒜精油、丁香油和肉桂油在处理黑翅土白蚁2 h后LC_(50)值(半致死量)分别为1.572、1.05和1.03mg·m L~(-1),说明肉桂油对黑翅土白蚁的毒性相对最大,触杀效果最好。此外,10 mg·m L~(-1)的大蒜精油、肉桂油、丁香油和印楝素油的驱避试验表明,处理4、6、8和12 h后,大蒜精油、肉桂油和丁香油三精油处理区的黑翅土白蚁数均显著低于对照区的,驱避率总体93%,而对应的印楝素油的驱避率总体28.5%,表明大蒜精油、丁香油和肉桂油三种植物精油对黑翅土白蚁均有显著的驱避活性。综上可知,四种植物精油中大蒜精油、肉桂油和丁香油在防治黑翅土白蚁方面应用潜力很好,是开发绿色环保白蚁防治药剂的可选材料。
