RGDS肽对大鼠主动脉球囊内膜剥脱后血管壁增殖的影响

在大鼠主动脉球囊内膜剥脱术后血管壁细胞过度增殖模型上,用合成的血小板膜纤维蛋白原受体（ｇｌｙｃｏｐｒｏｔｅｉｎⅡｂ／Ⅲａｃｏｍｐｌｅｘ,ＧＰⅡｂ／Ⅲａ）拮抗剂ＲＧＤＳ（Ａｒｇ－Ｇｌｙ－Ａｓｐ－Ｓｅｒ,５０μｍｏｌ·ｋｇ－１·ｄ－１）治疗可有效地抑制损伤血管壁的细胞计数增加和内膜增厚以及血管平滑肌细胞增殖,显著降低其血管组织３Ｈ－ＴｄＲ和３Ｈ－Ｌｅｕ的参入增加程度。实验结果提示ＲＧＤＳ肽作为血管成型术的辅佐剂,对于防治血管再狭窄可能具有潜在的临床应用前景。

钙／钙调素依赖性蛋白激酶对17．7kD和6kD胰腺蛋白的磷酸化

本文报导了胰腺提取物中两种可被钙／钙调素依赖性蛋白激酶磷酸化的热稳定蛋白。ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ测定其表观分子量分别为１７．７ｋＤ和６ｋＤ。经钙／钙调素依赖性蛋白激酶磷酸化后,其最大磷酸参入量为８．８μｍｏｌ／ｇ蛋白。同时磷酸化作用导致１７．７ｋＤ蛋白在ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ中迁移率发生变化。本文还进一步分析了各种阳离子对磷酸化的影响,并对此两种蛋白可能具有的生理功能进行了初步探讨。     

Bacterial Disproportionation of Elemental Sulfur Coupled to Chemical Reduction of Iron or Manganese

A new chemolithotrophic bacterial metabolism was discovered in anaerobic marine enrichment cultures. Cultures in defined medium with elemental sulfur (S⁰) and amorphous ferric hydroxide (FeOOH) as sole substrates showed intense formation of sulfate. Furthermore, precipitation of ferrous sulfide and pyrite was observed. The transformations were accompanied by growth of slightly curved, rod-shaped bacteria. The quantification of the products revealed that S⁰ was microbially disproportionated to sulfate and sulfide, as follows: 4S⁰ + 4H₂O → SO₄^2- + 3H₂S + 2H⁺. Subsequent chemical reactions between the formed sulfide and the added FeOOH led to the observed precipitation of iron sulfides. Sulfate and iron sulfides were also produced when FeOOH was replaced by FeCO₃. Further enrichment with manganese oxide, MnO₂, instead of FeOOH yielded stable cultures which formed sulfate during concomitant reduction of MnO₂ to Mn²⁺. Growth of small rod-shaped bacteria was observed. When incubated without MnO₂, the culture did not grow but produced small amounts of SO₄^2- and H₂S at a ratio of 1:3, indicating again a disproportionation of S⁰. The observed microbial disproportionation of S⁰ only proceeds significantly in the presence of sulfide-scavenging agents such as iron and manganese compounds. The population density of bacteria capable of S⁰ disproportionation in the presence of FeOOH or MnO₂ was high, > 10⁴ cm^-3 in coastal sediments. The metabolism offers an explanation for recent observations of anaerobic sulfide oxidation to sulfate in anoxic sediments.     

Substrate induction and metabolite accumulation during anaerobic toluene utilization by the denitrifying strain T1.

The denitrifying strain T1 utilizes toluene anaerobically. We now report that anaerobic toluene degradation is inducible in strain T1. Fluoracetate treatment of cell suspensions inhibited both the rate of toluene metabolism and the formation of the toluene dead-end products benzylsuccinate and benzylfumarate, which is consistent with the pathway proposed by Evans et al. (Appl. Environ. Microbiol. 58:496-501, 1992). In addition, when either nitrate was limiting or fluoroacetate was added, benzoate was detected during toluene metabolism.

几种药物对HL-60细胞的诱导分化作用及其过程中蛋白激酶C活力分布的变化

本文就HHT、RA、WB_(852)对HL-60细胞的诱导分化作用及此过程中PKC活力在细胞胞浆部分及膜溶脱部分的变化进行研究。结果表明,在适当的用药浓度下,从细胞生长抑制情况、形态学观察及NBT还原能力测定判断,三种药物对HL-60细胞有明显的诱导分化作用。PKC活力分布变化的研究结果表明,用药组细胞胞浆部分酶活力有不同程度的下降,尤在用药早期(约6h以前)下降显著;而膜部分PKC活力则表现上升、或下降,或活力相差不大的结果。暗示在信息传递过程中起核心作用的PKC对不同的胞外刺激可能采取不同的应答方式。PKC的作用可能主要发生在信息传递的早期。
