我国巢鼠属分类和分子系统学分析

本研究对2018至2021年采集的9号巢鼠(Micromys minutus)标本、22号红耳巢鼠(M. erythrotis)标本和19号待厘定的巢鼠属标本,进行形态分类和分子系统学分析,进一步揭示我国巢鼠属的分类和系统分化问题。待厘定的巢鼠属标本形态特征为：标本体背毛黑棕,体腹毛基灰色,毛尖灰白,体侧毛色具明显区分,尾背部毛色黑棕,尾腹部毛色灰棕色;尾长长于头体长的120%;头骨背面观可见颧弓明显弯曲;颅全长[(18.59 ± 0.48)mm]和颅基长[(17.43 ± 0.48 mm)]较长,腭长[(9.35 ± 0.11)mm]较长,脑颅高[(7.43 ± 0.06)mm]较高。待厘定的巢鼠属标本形态特征与巢鼠和红耳巢鼠均存在差异。待厘定巢鼠属标本与巢鼠和红耳巢鼠之间的遗传距离分别为0.115和0.136,接近于巢鼠与红耳巢鼠之间的遗传距离(0.126)。利用Cyt b基因全序列和核基因IRBP1、RAG1和RAG2序列分别构建的巢鼠属系统发生树均以较高的置信度分化成3个进化支,即巢鼠、红耳巢鼠和待厘定的巢鼠属样本的进化支。形态学和分子系统学分析结果均支持待厘定的巢鼠属标本为独立物种分类单元,对应于文献记载的巢鼠川西亚种(M. m. pygmaeus)。根据产地、遗传距离和形态分化,建议将巢鼠川西亚种提升为种,命名为川西巢鼠(M. pygmaeus comb. nov.)。利用Cyt b基因全序列构建的巢鼠系统发生树分化成6个进化谱系：日韩谱系、欧洲谱系、俄罗斯新西伯利亚谱系、中国东北和俄罗斯远东谱系、中国安徽谱系和中国台湾谱系。     

牛蛙冬眠期及其前后的消化道嗜银细胞分布

为研究两栖类在冬眠期及其前后消化道嗜银细胞是否参与冬眠期的消化调节,本文以牛蛙(Rana catesbeiana)为实验对象,采用Grimelius银染法,对冬眠期前(n = 10)、冬眠期(n = 10)和冬眠期后(n = 10)牛蛙消化道嗜银细胞的形态及密度进行比较研究。结果表明,牛蛙消化道各部位均有嗜银细胞分布;牛蛙消化道嗜银细胞形态在冬眠期、冬眠期前及冬眠期后无差异,均为锥体型、梭型和椭圆型;牛蛙消化道各部位具有外分泌功能的锥体型和梭形嗜银细胞密度在3个时期均显著高于具有内分泌功能的椭圆型嗜银细胞密度(P < 0.01);3个时期牛蛙消化道嗜银细胞分布密度高峰均位于空肠处,但低谷有所不同,冬眠期前和冬眠期后牛蛙消化道嗜银细胞的分布密度低谷位于食管,而冬眠期其分布密度低谷位于贲门;3个时期相比,冬眠期前和冬眠期幽门处分布密度差异不显著(P > 0.05),其余部位均有差异,且食管、胃、十二指肠、空肠、回肠和直肠中嗜银细胞分布密度在冬眠期显著高于冬眠期前和冬眠期后(P < 0.05);冬眠期前和冬眠期后消化道嗜银细胞分布密度呈倒“U”型趋势,冬眠期分布密度呈现“~”型趋势。结合相关研究,推测牛蛙嗜银细胞分布密度的改变可能与机体适应不同生理状态及消化功能的调节有关。     

烟草品种、育苗方式和烟蚜来源对烟蚜茧蜂寄生能力的影响

【目的】本研究旨在筛选出适合烟蚜茧蜂Aphidius gifuensis寄生烟蚜Myzus persicae的烟草品种、育苗方式和烟蚜来源,为烟蚜茧蜂人工繁殖和复壮提供科学参考。【方法】采用盆栽法,调查了不同烟草品种(云烟87、K326、翠碧1号和红花大金元)繁殖烟蚜若蚜、不同来源烟蚜(来自烟区、来自非烟区和室内繁殖种群)若蚜和烟草不同育苗方式(土壤育苗和湿润育苗)繁殖烟蚜若蚜时,烟蚜茧蜂成蜂对烟蚜若蚜的寄生率以及成蜂羽化率、寿命、体型大小和雌蜂比。【结果】结果表明,不同烟草品种繁殖烟蚜若蚜对烟蚜茧蜂成蜂寄生率存在显著影响。其中,在红花大金元和翠碧1号繁殖烟蚜上的烟蚜茧蜂成蜂寄生率分别比在K326繁殖烟蚜上的烟蚜茧蜂成蜂寄生率高19.00%和14.00%,但对烟蚜茧蜂的其他指标没有显著影响;不同烟蚜来源对烟蚜茧蜂寄生率也存在显著影响,其中,烟蚜茧蜂成蜂对非烟区烟蚜若蚜和烟区烟蚜若蚜的寄生率比对室内繁殖种群烟蚜若蚜的寄生率分别高20.25%和16.75%,但对烟蚜茧蜂成蜂的羽化率、寿命、体型大小和雌蜂比没有显著影响;烟草不同育苗方式对烟蚜茧蜂成蜂的寄生率无显著影响。【结论】烟蚜茧蜂对烟蚜...     

抑制CD36与Nogo-B表达抑制三阴性乳腺癌细胞增殖与迁移

分化聚类36（cluster of differentiation 36,CD36）是一种位于细胞表面的膜蛋白受体,可以结合并转运脂肪酸。内质网膜蛋白4B （Nogo-B）在肝脏中调控脂肪酸代谢而影响肝癌的发展。目前并不清楚CD36和Nogo-B的相互作用是否能够影响乳腺癌细胞的增殖和迁移。本研究在三阴性乳腺癌（triple-negative breast cancer,TNBC）细胞中同时干预CD36与Nogo-B的表达来探索它们对细胞增殖与迁移的影响。结果表明在三阴性乳腺癌细胞中,单独抑制CD36或Nogo-B的表达都能够抑制细胞的增殖与迁移;同时抑制CD36与Nogo-B的表达时,这种抑制效果更加明显,且Vimentin、B细胞淋巴瘤-2（B-cell lympoma-2,BCL2）和增殖细胞核抗原（proliferating cell nuclear antigen,PCNA）的表达受到抑制。在小鼠移植瘤模型中,E0771细胞转染CD36或Nogo-B的siRNA后成瘤能力降低;同时敲减CD36和Nogo-B时,肿瘤生长速度显著减慢。机制研究发现,抑制CD36和Nogo-B表达能够抑制脂肪酸结合蛋白4（fatty acid binding protein 4,FABP4）和脂肪酸转运蛋白4（fatty acid transport protein 4,FATP4） mRNA的含量,同时CD36和Nogo-B过表达刺激的细胞增殖被FABP4的siRNA降低,预示着抑制乳腺癌细胞中CD36与Nogo-B的表达可能通过抑制脂肪酸的吸收和转运而抑制细胞的生长和迁移。此外,抑制CD36与Nogo-B的表达可激活P53-P21-Rb信号通路,参与抑制CD36与Nogo-B表达而抑制的细胞增殖与迁移。本研究证明同时抑制CD36和Nogo-B的表达能够协同抑制三阴性乳腺癌细胞的增殖和迁移,为临床抗三阴性乳腺癌药物的开发提供了新的靶点。

Molecular Cloning and Characterization of Transferrin from Wax Moth, Galleria mellonella

Complete mRNA sequence of transferrin from Galleria mellonella was obtained, and compared with those of other species. Until now, two types of insect transferrin were reported. Transferrins in cockroach and termite have two iron binding sites while those in most other insect groups, studied for the protein, have only one. It was suggested that the presence of two types of transferrin was related with transferrin evolution, because vertebrate transferrins have two iron binding sites, called N and C terminal lobe. It was shown that G. mellonella transferrin also has only one iron binding site (N terminal lobe), and the deduced amino acid sequence was most similar to those of Manduca sexta and Bombyx mori.     

Immune-Enhancing Activity Screening on Extracts from Two Crickets, Gryllus bimaculatus and Teleogryllus emma

This study was performed to explore novel and valuable uses of insect resources, important subjects of the natural compound used in bio‐industries. The whole bodies of two crickets, Gryllus bimaculatus and Teleogryllus emma, selected from medicinal insect species, were carefully ground and treated with 80% EtOH. The insect extracts were solubilized and separated by hexane, butanol, and D.W according to their polarities. Three types of extracts, a D.W fraction (G1) and a boiling extract (G2) of an introduced cricket, G. bimaculatus, and a D.W fraction (T1) of a Korean local cricket, T. emma, were prepared to assay immune stimulating activity of cricket originated compounds. The all of three treated cricket extracts showed to increase IL‐4, IFN‐, and TNF‐α. Among those extract, extract G2, boiled extract from G. bimaculatus, was the best immune–enhancing fraction. The results of this study could be fundamental information for further works to use insects as natural resources having plenty of potentials and varieties.     

小麦籽粒充实期氮素的吸收和再分配及6－苄氨基嘌呤的调节作用

小麦从开花至成熟,其根、茎和叶中的Ｎ素不断地进行着分配和再分配,主要是向穗子输出。成熟时穗Ｎ含量占植株总Ｎ的８２％。在总Ｎ净输出的同时各营养器官也有相当程度的对当前土壤Ｎ的净吸收。在籽粒充实阶段用ＢＡ处理叶式穗均影响营养器官及穗子的Ｎ素吸收、分配和再分配。     

Processing of global and local properties——An analysis with event-related brain potentials

The different processing of global and local properties of compound visual stimuli was studied with event-related brain potentials (ERPs) in the present experiment. It was found that, compared with the identification of global properties, the discrimination of local properties elicited longer RTs, lower accuracies, increased amplitudes of P1, decreased amplitudes of N1, and longer latencies of N2 and P3. The conflict of global and local properties increased the amplitudes of P2, decreased the amplitudes of P3, and prolonged latencies of N2 and P3. These results indicated that the advantage of global processing occurs at an early perceptual stage, and the attentional mechanisms for global and local processing may be different.     

慢性心功能不全大鼠心脏和血淋巴细胞β-肾上腺素受体的改变

在主动脉与肾动脉缩窄造成的慢性心功能不全大鼠,血浆儿茶酚胺浓度增高;心脏β-肾上腺素受体(β-AR)数量增加,其中β_1-AR及其mRNA增加,而β_2-AR及其mRNA不变;左心房异丙基肾上腺素(ISO)浓度-收缩效应曲线右移;而心肌ISO浓度-cAMP蓄积曲线无显著改变;血淋巴细胞β-AR数量显著减少.结果提示心功能不全时心脏β_1-AR数量增多,但其介导的正性变力效应反而降低,在cAMP生成以后的信号转导过程或心肌收缩成分功能存在障碍,而血淋巴细胞β-AR的改变与心脏β-AR的功能改变平行.
