天然氨基酸诱导野油菜黄单胞菌降解DSF-家族群体感应信号活性分析

【背景】野油菜黄单胞菌(Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris,Xcc)是十字花科植物黑腐病的致病菌。Xcc中DSF (Diffusible signal factor)信号依赖的群体感应系统和RpfB介导的群体感应退出机制均与其致病性密切相关。【目的】分别检测18种氨基酸对DSF-家族群体感应信号分子合成的影响,为研发新型生物防治方法提供思路。【方法】添加不同浓度的氨基酸到ΔrpfC菌株XYS培养体系中,接种后不同时间点取样提取DSF信号分子,利用高效液相色谱法(High performance liquid chromatography,HPLC)分析DSF和BDSF浓度。【结果】18种氨基酸中,甲硫氨酸、色氨酸和胱氨酸能有效降低ΔrpfC菌株培养体系中DSF和BDSF水平,抑制效果与氨基酸浓度密切相关;3种氨基酸对DSF信号分子的抑制作用存在叠加效应;甲硫氨酸、色氨酸或胱氨酸不影响ΔrpfCΔrpfB双突变体菌株中DSF和BDSF水平。【结论】首次发现了甲硫氨酸、色氨酸和胱氨酸通过RpfB诱导Xcc退出群体感应状态。     

流行性感冒季节性的基本原因和模型理论

流行性感冒（流感）在世界范围内每年造成（300～500）万例严重疾病和（25～50）万例死亡。流感可造成严重的公共卫生和经济问题。流感流行和爆发都是以流感季节为特征。因为与甲型流感病毒相关疾病的发病率和死亡率水平较高,因此本研究从病毒学、流行病学、生物学和数学等方面重点讨论甲型流感季节性的基本原因和模型理论。

浙江天童山鼠类对栲树种子的捕食和扩散

在浙江天童山国家森林公园,研究了鼠类在常绿阔叶林、马尾松林和灌丛几种生境内对栲树（Castanopsis fargesii）种子的捕食和扩散的影响.结果表明,社鼠（Niviventer confucianus）和针毛鼠（N.fulvescens）是栲树种子的主要捕食者.种子在刚布下后的几天内消失的最快,随后其日消失率便逐渐降低,在不同生境中,其日消失率也有所不同,在灌丛中日消失率最高（7.54%）,其次是马尾松林（7.29%）,而常绿阔叶林中3条样带的日消失率较低.在损失的种子中,各种种子命运所占比例在样带中存在着差异,灌丛中失踪的种子比例最高,占97.77%,而样带2的则最低,只占8.91%.这与不同样带中的植被组成密切相关.同时,鼠类对栲树种子扩散的距离比较近,观察到的最远扩散距离为12.7 m.     

Synthesis,evaluation and CoMFA/CoMSIA study of nitrofuranyl methyl N-heterocycles as novel antitubercular agents

A series of novel nitrofuranyl methyl N-heterocycles based on the structure of IIIM-MCD-211 were designed and synthesized. Compounds 6d, 8b and 12a show excellent activity against MTB H37Rv strain (MIC: 0.031–0.062?μg/mL) roughly comparable to INH and IIIM-MCD-211. In addition, a three-dimensional quantitative structure-activity relationship (3D-QSAR) study was performed on the above mentioned chemical series employing comparative molecular field analysis (CoMFA) and comparative molecular similarity index analysis (CoMSIA) techniques. The developed CoMFA and CoMSIA models display high external predictability (r²_pred of 0.954 and 0.935, respectively) and good statistical robustness. More importantly, the newly designed compounds 16a and 16b (MIC: <0.016?μg/mL) based on the two models, as expected, were found to be more active than 12a and IIIM-MCD-21. Design and synthesis of more potent nitrofuranyl methyl N-heterocycles as anti-TB agents are currently in progress.     

Neuroprotective effects of Argon are mediated via an ERK‐1/2 dependent regulation of heme‐oxygenase‐1 in retinal ganglion cells

Retinal ischemia and reperfusion injuries (R‐IRI) damage neuronal tissue permanently. Recently, we demonstrated that Argon exerts anti‐apoptotic and protective properties. The molecular mechanism remains unclear. We hypothesized that Argon inhalation exert neuroprotective effects in rats retinal ganglion cells (RGC) via an ERK‐1/2 dependent regulation of heat‐shock proteins. Inhalation of Argon (75 Vol%) was performed after R‐IRI on the rats′ left eyes for 1 h immediately or with delay. Retinal tissue was harvested after 24 h to analyze mRNA and protein expression of heat‐shock proteins ?70, ?90 and heme‐oxygenase‐1, mitogen‐activated protein kinases (p38, JNK, ERK‐1/2) and histological changes. To analyze ERK dependent effects, the ERK inhibitor PD98059 was applicated prior to Argon inhalation. RGC count was analyzed 7 days after injury. Statistics were performed using anova . Argon significantly reduced the R‐IRI‐affected heat‐shock protein expression (p < 0.05). While Argon significantly induced ERK‐1/2 expression (p < 0.001), inhibition of ERK‐1/2 before Argon inhalation resulted in significantly lower vital RGCs (p < 0.01) and increase in heme‐oxygenase‐1 (p < 0.05). R‐IRI‐induced RGC loss was reduced by Argon inhalation (p < 0.001). Immunohistochemistry suggested ERK‐1/2 activation in Müller cells. We conclude, that Argon treatment protects R‐IRI‐induced apoptotic loss of RGC via an ERK‐1/2 dependent regulation of heme‐oxygenase‐1.

于2008年7-11月,对宁波镇海工业园区的昆虫群落多样性进行调查,选取林地、农田、人工苗圃、生态园和工厂区5种具有代表性的生境类型,每月对该地区的昆虫种类及数量进行抽样统计和数据分析.结果表明:该地共有昆虫284种,分属13目108科,其中优势类群为同翅目、直翅目、半翅目、鞘翅目和鳞翅目.在不同功能类群中,从个体数看...     

宁夏盐池荒漠草原植被的数量分类和排序

为检验荒漠草原封育恢复的效果,对宁夏盐池围封9年的退化草场进行了植被调查,共记录34个物种,分属于12个科、27个属,其中豆科(9种)、禾本科(7种)、菊科(6种)所含物种数较多.与封育前相比,物种组成基本相同,常见种和建群种发生了明显变化.采用PCA排序和分层聚类将80个样方分为长芒草、白草、赖草3个群系,依据建群种或优势种的生物学特性将其生境划分为旱生生境、中生生境和轻度盐渍化生境.3个群系的演替速率不同,其中长芒草群系演替进入反应阶段,赖草群系的演替等级相对较高.群系间存在激烈的资源竞争关系,风蚀能够促进赖草群系的进一步扩大.建议通过划区轮牧的方式合理调控长芒草群系和赖草群系的放牧时期,以提高草场的放牧利用价值,降低赖草群系的扩张危险.
