大黄蒽醌衍生物与环核苷酸磷酸二酯酶、钙调素相互作用的研究

大黄蒽醌衍生物是中药大黄的主要成份。该类衍生物与钙调素(calmo-dulin,CaM)依赖的磷酸二酯酶(PDE)的相互作用表明:它们可作用子钙调素。其中,大黄酸结合CaM并抑制CaM依赖的磷酸二酯酶(CaM-PDE);而大黄素、大黄酚和芦荟大黄素既刺激CaM-PDE的活力,又刺激PDE的基础活力,其作用机制尚待阐明;当有Ca~(2+)或无Ca~(2+)条件下测定时,大黄酸对PDE基础活力均无影响。表明:象其它的CaM拮抗剂一样,大黄酸能抑制钙调素依赖的PDE的活力。     

Release of erythrocytes from the spleen during exercise and splenic constriction by adrenaline infusion in the rainbow trout

Erythrocyte-supplying function of the spleen was examined in the rainbow troutSalmo gairdneri under exercise. The spleen showed remarkable reduction, about 70% in weight and about 85% in hemoglobin content, after forced exercise of 15 min. The amount of erythrocytes released from the spleen was 2.33 ml/kg body, and this amount corresponds to about 20% of the total volume of circulating erythrocytes in resting condition. No damage was observed at the spleen, splenic artery and splenic vein after the exercise. Examination of the vascular system by a corrosion casting method showed that no place other than the venous circulation exists for the erythrocytes released from the contracted spleen. The spleen was strongly constricted by infusion of adrenaline into the organ. These facts imply that the fish spleen supplies stored hemoglobin into the circulating blood in response to an increased demand of oxygen during exercise, under the control of the sympathetic nervous system.     

小鼠精母细胞联会复合体RNA组分的电镜研究

本文运用常规染色和Bernhard染色方法对切片标本中小鼠粗线期精母细胞联会复合体(SC)的超微结构和电镜细胞化学特点进行了研究。经常规染色后,可见SC由侧生组分(LE)、中央组分(CE)和L-C纤维组成;SC宽约210nm,LE宽约60nm,中央间隔区宽约90nm。在Bernhard染色标本中,SC的LE、CE和L-C纤维着色较深,说明其中含有RNA;SC各结构组分的宽度和形态特点与常规染色标本中的基本一致。本文讨论了SC中存在有RNA等问题。     

伊贝母体细胞无性系的建立及其胚状体的发生

本文报道了伊贝母体细胞无性系的建立及其胚状体的发生。已继代培养三年零六个月共30多代的鳞芽愈伤组织,目前仍有分化能力。通过愈伤组织形态细胞学的观察,发现伊贝母体细胞无性系形成小鳞茎的途径有二:一是由特化了的愈伤组织表皮细胞。经多次分裂发育成不定芽而形成小鳞茎;二是由愈伤组织表层或内层特化了的胚性细胞,经多次分裂发育成胚状体而形成小鳞茎。不定芽和胚状体的形态发生是有区别的。     

安徽烟草病毒类型及优势种初步研究

1978年,烟草病毒病在安徽烟区流行,导致凤阳县烟叶总产损失92.3％,引起了普遍震惊。1981—1984年作者对来自16个县、市552个病毒材料,经生物测定、血清反应、电镜观察,初步分离出CMV、TMV、PVY和PVX四种病毒。它们分别约占检测总数的82.79％、4.53％、2.54％和0.36％,其中CMV与长期视为优势种的TMV比值为18.3,除此,尚有约占检测总数9.8％的CMV和TMV、CMV和PVY复合侵染,以及不明类型的毒株。通过对田间烟草以及其他植物花叶病株的实际检测,进一步表明:CMV在烟区分布范围极广、出现频次最多,已形成了复杂的循环侵染系统,成为近期内烟草病毒病持续流行危害的首要毒原。     

厌氧培养皿及厌氧培养管的临床应用——对传统的厌氧菌分离培养及鉴定方法的简化

利用我们研制的厌氧培养皿及管,共检验了39份牙髓炎及牙周炎标本,分离出厌氧菌59株,标本中厌氧菌分离的阳性率为100％。其中类杆菌28株,消化链球菌9株,消化球菌7株,韦荣氏球菌5株,真杆菌2株,梭形杆菌8株。在类杆菌中产黑素类杆菌21株,占类杆菌总数的75％。结果表明使用厌氧培养皿及管研究厌氧菌简便、有效、经济,适于基层单位应用。     

Intravesical treatment of bladder cancer with recombinant human interferon-β

Summary In order to examine its clinical efficacy, recombinant human interferon- (rIFN-) was instilled intravesically into 51 patients with superficial bladder cancer. Ten patients, who received intermittent intravesical instillation at a dose of (3–36) × 10⁶ U rIFN- on days 1–3 every week, showed no response. Thirty-two patients received intravesical instillation at a dose of (3–36) × 10⁶ U every day for 10–20 days. Eight patients showed partial response, indicating an efficacy rate of 25%. Nine patients received divided doses of 18 × 10⁶ U twice a day every day for 10–20 days. Six patients showed partial response, indicating an efficacy rate of 67%. This value was significantly higher than that obtained by administering divided doses. The response to intravesical instillation therapy with rIFN- varies with treatment protocol. Frequent and longer exposure to rIFN- may induce better regression of superficial bladder cancer. Six incidences of side-effects were found in five cases (9.8%): pollakiuria in one, pain on micturition in two, fever in two, and eruption in one case. All of these side-effects were slight and reversible after drug withdrawal. Laboratory tests showed only a few changes with low severity. Thus, rIFN- is potentially a new drug for instillation therapy of superficial bladder cancer, in view of the absence of adverse effects.     

Antimetastatic effect of endogenous tumor necrosis factor induced by the treatment of recombinant interferon γ followed by an analogue (GLA-60) to synthetic lipid A subunit

Summary We have investigated the effect of endogenous production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induced by the combination of recombinant interferon (rIFN) as a primer followed by GLA-60 as a trigger (rIFN/GLA-60) on murine lung metastases caused by B16-BL6 melanoma. In order to examine the therapeutic effect of endogenous TNF on tumor metastasis, the ability of multiple administrations of rIFN/GLA-60 to induce TNF production was also tested. The multiple administrations of rIFN/GLA-60 at intervals of 2 days were effective for the induction of endogenous TNF in mice but continuous multiple administrations of them for 2–4 days were not. In tumor-bearing mice, the production of endogenous TNF by rIFN/GLA-60 was less than that of normal mice, but treatment 3 days after the surgical excision of primary tumors showed the endogenous TNF production to be similar to that in normal mice. In the experimental lung metastasis model, intravenous administration of rIFN followed by intravenous or intranasal administration of GLA-60 showed potent inhibition of lung metastases of B16-BL6 melanoma, whereas the reverse sequence of administration (GLA-60/rIFN) or administration of a mixture of rIFN and GLA-60, which cannot induce the production of TNF, caused no inhibition of lung metastases. These results indicated that the regression of tumor metastases by rIFN/GLA-60 was mediated by the production of endogenous TNF in addition to the direct effects of both immunostimulants. Furthermore, the administration of rIFN and GLA-60 significantly inhibited the tumor metastases in spontaneous lung metastasis model. These results may provide a promising approach for the treatment of cancer metastasis as a result of its ability to induce endogenous TNF.     

铝对水稻幼苗的生理影响

以水稻幼苗为材料研究了铝的植物毒性。将不同浓度的 AlCl 加入培养液,对幼苗处理30天。10ppm 以上的铝明显抑制水稻幼苗根和地上部分的生长。5.0ppm 以上铝可引起毒害症状。铝对根的毒害作用大于对地上部分的作用。铝主要积累在根部,少部分转移到地上部分。5.0ppm 以上的铝对叶绿体 Hill 反应和光合磷酸化作用以及根线粒体呼吸和氧化磷酸化作用均有较明显抑制作用。钙对铝的此种抑制作用有一定拮抗作用。
