休眠与萌发过程中苹果种子的呼吸代谢

“秦冠”苹果种子的总呼吸强度和EMP途径的呼吸强度在2℃条件下层积之后逐渐增加,解除休眠临界期大体在层积后第30天发生,此后增长速度较快。HMP途径和TCAC在临界期之前变化极慢,而后急剧增加。种子萌发后子叶和胚轴的总呼吸强度、EMP和TCAC初期呈急剧上升趋势,大约当胚轴长度达2cm时迅速下降,HMP在萌发过程中始终呈上升趋势。细胞透性层积之后逐渐降低,解除休眠至萌发阶段呈上升趋势。用不同浓度呼吸抑制剂处理解除休眠种子的试验结果表明,除1mM碘乙酸能明显刺激萌发和生长外,NaCN、SHAM和丙酮酸都表现为抑制作用。     

高原低氧对机体无氧代谢阈值的影响

为了探讨高原低氧对机体无氧代谢阈值(AT)的影响,本研究采用Wasserman无创性方法,分别测定了11名新兵在平原(四川淮口,海拔500m)和经空运进驻高原 (西藏错那,海拔4370m)后的第3、5、7和14天的AT。结果表明:新兵进驻高原后AT由平原的813.6±147.4kg·m/min降低到395.5±194.5 kg·m/min(P<0.01);高原低氧引起AT的降低幅度与受试者平原AT的高低呈正相关(r=0.933,P<0.01);进驻高原后第3、5、7天AT维持在较低水平,随后呈上升趋势。但移居高原1年战士的AT仍低于平原水平(P<0.05)。提示,高原低氧能够显著地降低机体的AT,并且AT越高的个体进驻高原后受低氧环境的影响程度越大。

氟中毒抑制大鼠泌鼠的实验研究

The effect of fluorosis on lactation, lactotroph function and ultrastructure were studied in lactating rats. The results were as follows: 1) Inhibition of lactation in lactating rats with chronic fluorosis was assessed by stunting growth of pups and decrease in the amount of milk suckled by pups in 30 min. Metoclopramide, a blocker of dopamine receptor, could improve lactation in these rats. 2) During chronic fluorosis serum PRL level was decreased, however, PRL content in pituitary was increased. Electronmicroscopic examination showed accumulation of large mature secretory granules and appearance of extremely large abnormal secretory granules in lactotroph cytoplasma. These findings indicate that hormone release of pituitary lactotrophs is obstructed in lactating rats with fluorosis, and the toxic effect of fluoride is mediated by an enhanced function of dopaminergic system in hypothalamus.     

Advances in the design of special cryosurgical apparatus in China

Advances in the design of special cryobiomedical apparatus and a review of the trend of developments in the field of cryosurgery in China are discussed. The typical structure of two special cryoprobes for treatment deep in the body and the technology of designing these probes are presented in detail. Some cases which are treated successfully with the above cryoprobes will also be discussed. The experimental aspects of heat transfer in frozen tissue and of the temperature profiles both of a human brain during surgery and of the cryoprobe are described. Other improvements in the field of cryosurgical devices, e.g., four main ways of attaching freezing tips to cryoprobes during surgery and an LN2 transfer tube with high dexterity are also presented. Finally, the development of commercial cryosurgical apparatus in China is also discussed.     

利用人摄金蛋白(METALLOTHIONEIN)启动子和牛乳突瘤病毒在哺乳动物细胞中表达乙型肝炎表面抗原

用人Metallothioenin-Ⅱ启动子、乙型肝炎表面抗原基因,SV40早期基因的编接位点和多聚A位点构成了表达组件,然后插入到经改造过的BpV-1质粒中。所得质粒pdMTsAg-5转染小鼠C127细胞得到转化克隆。Ausria Ⅱ检测证明13株中有12株能产生HBsAg。对其中一株进行HBsAg收率观察,隔天收获为292.6～525.8μg/升,每天收获为200.9～369.0μg/升,可连续收获60天以上。经重金属离子诱导后,收率增至583～854.4μg/升。培养液经超滤浓缩和两次密梯离心后,可集中为一个狭窄的峰,顶峰的Ausria Ⅱ cpm为1.05×10~7,密度为1.20g/ml。     

蝮蛇毒抗凝血活酶组份及几种蛇毒粗毒对人红细胞和血小板的作用

蝮蛇毒抗凝血活酶组分及蝗蛇毒、圆斑蝰蛇毒和眼镜蛇毒粗毒,不仅能够水解血浆中的磷脂,而且还能水解完整人红细胞膜和完整人血小板膜上的磷脂。但是五步蛇毒和金环蛇毒粗毒却不能水解完整人血小板膜上的磷脂。 扫描电镜观察表明,由于抗凝血活酶组份和几种蛇毒粗毒的作用,人红细胞和人血小板的形态发生了巨大的变化;人红细胞由正常的双圆盘形变成带刺的小球,人血小板的外形变成蜂窝状。     

长豇豆（Vigna sesquipedalis）生物学特性观察

豇豆近年来公认原产于热带西非(原生中心)和印度次大陆(次生中心)。种子含蛋白质25.0%,在豆类中仅次于大豆,比牛肉、猪肉和鸡肉的蛋白质含量都要高。鲜果含86%的水,3.3%的蛋白质,7.5%的碳水化合物,是广大人民喜爱的蔬菜。我国通常作蔬菜栽培的是长豇豆,又名豆角,其生物学特性的记载并不详尽。为此,我们对长豇豆作了进一步系统的观察,为育种和丰产栽培提供了必要的理论依据。     

从乙型肝炎病毒表面抗原阳性母亲流产的胎儿查出乙型肝炎病毒标志

应用Southern blot杂交试验检测HBsAg及HBeAg均阳性母亲流产的9例胎儿肝细胞中HBV DNA的存在状态,并与其HBV血清学、免疫电镜及肝脏免疫组织化学的结果相比较。结果在3例胎肝高分子DNA中检出了整合的HBV DNA顺序,且此3例HBV DNA整合到胎肝细胞基因组并无特定部位,提示为随机整合。3例中2例的血清及肝匀浆都检出HBsAg颗粒,其胎肝细胞胞浆HBsAg也阳性;另1例受HBV感染的唯一标志是在胎肝细胞中存在着整合的HBVDNA。此外,另1例则仅胎肝细胞中HBsAg阳性而无整合的HBV DNA。在胎肝细胞中检出整合的HBV DNA进一步证实HBV子宫内传播途径的存在。
