脏器微血管对荧光素钠通透性的实验方法

大鼠颈动脉注射１％ＦｌＮａ,荧光显微镜下活体观察肠系膜微血管血流状态及ＦｌＮａ的渗出情况,并在不同时间点经股动脉采血,测定血浆内ＦｌＮａ浓度随时间的变化,利用组织匀浆测定不同脏器中ＦｌＮａ的分布,再辅以冰冻切片进行观察。活体观察发现,ＦｌＮａ注入体内后,经微血管迅速向周围组织渗出,最后汇集于淋巴管,血浆及组织匀浆ＦｌＮａ浓度的测定表明,ＦｌＮａ浓度随时间的变化呈指数衰减,各脏器ＦｌＮａ的分布极不相同。冰冻切片也显示了同样的分布差别。这些结果表明,我们所建立的方法可直观、定量地反映ＦｌＮａ在微血管的通透情况。

Pollen fertility restoration by nuclear gene Fr in CMS common bean: an Fr linkage map and the mode of Fr action

The Fr gene in common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., is a unique gene for the study of plant nuclear-mitochondrial interactions because it appears to directly influence plant mitochondrial genome structure, resulting in the restoration of pollen fertility in cytoplasmic male sterile plants. This gene action is distinct from other pollen fertility restoration systems characterized to date. As a first step towards the map-based cloning of this unusual nuclear gene, we identified RAPD markers linked to Fr using bulked segregant analysis of near-isogenic lines. Using DNA gel blot hybridization, we localized the identified RAPD markers to a linkage group on the common bean RFLP map and constructed a linkage map of the Fr region using both RAPD markers and RFLP markers. Analysis of the mode of Fr action with the aid of identified Fr-linked DNA markers indicated that Fr functions in a semidominant fashion, showing dosage effect in controlling the dynamics of a heteroplasmic mitochondrial population. We also present our observations on the developmental distinctions, crucial in the accurate mapping of the Fr gene, between spontaneous cytoplasmic reversion and Fr-driven fertility restoration, two phenomena that are phenotypically indistinguishable.     

Pollen Fertility Restoration by Nuclear Gene Fr in Cms Bean: Nuclear-Directed Alteration of a Mitochondrial Population

Two nuclear genes, Fr and Fr2, have been identified that restore pollen fertility to cytoplasmic male sterile (CMS) common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) by apparently distinct mechanisms. Whereas Fr2 appears to suppress the expression of a male sterility associated mitochondrial sequence (designated pvs), Fr restores pollen fertility by causing the elimination of this unusual mitochondrial DNA segment. To further investigate the mechanism of Fr action, Fr and Fr2 were cointroduced into the nucleus of a bean line containing the sterility inducing cytoplasm. When the effect of pvs was suppressed by Fr2, the presence of Fr no longer directed the elimination of the mitochondrial pvs sequence. This result suggests that the Fr function is dependent on proper expression of the pvs sequence. To evaluate the temporal and spatial patterns of Fr action, we undertook a polymerase chain reaction-based approach to trace the fate of the pvs sequence in different tissues of F(2) and F(3) fertile-restored plants derived from a genetic cross between a cytoplasmic male sterile line of common bean, CMS-Sprite (frfr), and fertility restorer line R351 (FrFr). We demonstrate that the Fr-directed disappearance of pvs sequence occurs during flower development. Elimination of the pvs sequence from developing megaspores results in permanent fertility restoration in the following generations. Genetic analysis demonstrated that permanent fertility restoration, that is, the complete elimination of pvs from reproductive tissues requires two doses of the Fr allele or the absence of fr in F(2) individuals. The effect of Fr was reversible until full fertility was achieved. On the basis of these results, we propose a model for the mechanism of pvs elimination by the Fr gene and discuss the dynamics of pvs-containing mitochondrial transmission in the presence of the Fr gene.
