生长抑制素能神经元在人胎丘脑网状核内的分布

本文用免疫细胞化学方法调查了生长抑素（ＳＯＭ）免疫反应神经元在人胎丘脑网状核内的分布。流产的胚胎３例,胎龄分别为１８周,２３周,３２周。意外死亡足月新生儿１例、在１８周胚胎的丘脑网状核内可见少数染色较浅的ＳＯＭ免疫反应阳性神经元,呈圆形。从１８周到３２周,ＳＯＭ免疫反应阳性细胞数明显增多,突起更丰富。在足月新生儿,ＳＯＭ阳性细胞数较３２周有所减少。结果表明,ＳＯＭ阳性神经元存在于人胎丘脑网状核内,并且有一定的发育过程。出现于人脑发育的早期阶段,可能在中枢神经系统的发育过程中起重要的作用。     

植物血细胞凝集素对小鼠脾脏淋巴细胞γ－谷氨酰基转肽酶活性的影响

本文就植物血细胞凝集素（ＰＨＡ）作用的不同时间对小鼠脾脏淋巴细胞γ－谷氨酰基转肽酶（γ－ＧＴ）活性的影响进行了观察。结果表明,脾脏淋巴细胞转化率随给予ＰＨＡ时间的延长而上升,对照组＜２４ｈ组＜４８ｈ组＜７２ｈ组;淋巴细胞γ－ＧＴ活性于２４ｈ明显强于对照组（Ｐ＜０．００１）,随着ＰＨＡ作用时间的延长其γ－ＧＴ活性逐渐下降,即４８ｈ组与对照组已无显著差异,而７２ｈ组却低于对照组（Ｐ＜０．００１）。可见ＰＨＡ在小鼠体内对γ－ＧＴ活性有很大影响。     

新疆呼图壁盐化草甸群落的DCA, CCA及DCCA分析

 本文应用DCA、CCA及DCCA排序技术对新疆呼图壁盐化草甸群落进行了分析。分析中选取了地下水位、粘土层出现深度、粘土层厚度、地下水pH值及地下水矿化度5个环境因子;同时为了分析空间格局对植被分异影响的大小,建立了样地空间坐标矩阵。结果表明：地下水位和地下水的pH值是引起植被分异的两个主要因素,空间格局对植被分异的影响大于环境因子对植被分异的影响。     

Deletion between direct repeats in T7 DNA stimulated by double-strand breaks.

An in vitro system based on extracts of Escherichia coli infected with bacteriophage T7 was used to study genetic deletions between directly repeated sequences. The frequency of deletion was highest under conditions in which the DNA was actively replicating. Deletion frequency increased markedly with the length of the direct repeat both in vitro and in vivo. When a T7 gene was interrupted by 93 bp of nonsense sequence flanked by 20-bp direct repeats, the region between the repeats was deleted in about 1 out of every 1,600 genomes during each round of replication. Very similar values were found for deletion frequency in vivo and in vitro. The deletion frequency was essentially unaffected by a recA mutation in the host. When a double-strand break was placed between the repeats, repair of this strand break was often accompanied by the deletion of the DNA between the direct repeats, suggesting that break rejoining could contribute to deletion during in vitro DNA replication.     

Monoclonal antibody specific for α2→8-linked oligo deaminated neuraminic acid (KDN) sequences in glycoproteins. Preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody and its application in immunohistochemistry

Two particular types of sialoglycoproteins have been detected in fish: polysialoglycoproteins containing 28-linked polysialic acid (8Neu5Gc2) _n present in unfertilized Salmonidae fish eggs, and glycoproteins bearing oligo/polymers of deaminated neuraminic acids (KDN) found in the vitelline envelope of the eggs and ovarian fluid. We report the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing oligo/polymers of KDN sequences in glycoproteins and its application in immunohistochemistry. Fusion of spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a KDN-rich glycoprotein (KDN-gp) containing (8KDN2) _n 6(KDN23Gal13GlNAc13) GalNAc1 residues, with mouse myeloma cells yielded a hybrid cell line producing a monoclonal antibody that bound to KDN-gp, but not to KDN-gp depleted of KDN residues. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody, designated mAb.kdn8kdn, was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using KDN-gp samples that varied in KDN content. These antigens were prepared by the selective removal of KDN residues from the native KDN-gp. The mAb.kdn8kdn reacted most strongly with the intact KDN-gp and less strongly with KDN-gp samples containing decreased numbers of KDN residues. The mAb.kdn8kdn was shown specifically to recognize the 28-linked oligo/polyKDN sequences, (8KDN2) _n , and to be able to distinguish specifically (8KDN2) _n chains from (8Neu5Ac2) _n and (8Neu5Gc2) _n chains. The antibody was used successfully for the immunohistochemical detection of reactive KDN epitopes in sections of paraffin embedded rat pancreas. Several controls verified the specificity of the immunohistochemical staining, thus providing the first demonstration of (8KDN2) _n sequences in a mammalian tissue. The mAb.kdn8kdn can now be used to search further for glycoconjugates containing (8KDN2) _n chains and will facilitate studies on their biosynthesis, intracellular localization and function.

Chaetomella acutiseta produces chaetomellic acids A and B which are reversible inhibitors of farnesyl-protien transferase

Chaetomellic acids A and B, isolated from Chaetomella acutiseta, are specific inhibitors of farnesyl-protein transferase that do not inhibit geranylgeranyl transferase type 1 or squalene synthase. Chaetomellic acids A and B are reversible inhibitors, resemble farnesyl diphosphate and probably inhibit FPTase by substituting for farnesyl diphosphate. Chaetomellic acid production appears to be widespread within the genus Chaetomella. Correspondence to: R. B. Lingham

Novel changes in the plasma membrane and cortical cytoplasm during wound-induced contraction in a giant-celled green alga

Summary Changes in the plasma membrane surface and in the cortical cytoplasm during wound healing in giant green algal cells ofErnodesmis verticillata (Kützing) Brgesen were followed using scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Microvillus-like structures that contain cytoplasmic and cytoskeletal constituents were observed emanating from the surface of the plasma membrane at the retracting/cut end of wounded cells. These delicate structures seem to be remnants of cell wall-plasmalemma connections that draw out the plasma membrane and cortical components from the contracting cytoplasm as it pulls away from the cell wall. Most of these connections break during wound healing and, when contraction stops, the microvillus-like protrusions become progressively shorter. In cells treated with a calmodulin antagonist (W-7), a number of distinctive bodies accumulate that are of unknown composition, are oblong in shape, and have a diameter slightly smaller than the protoplasmic protrusions. Ultrastructural and other data indicate that these bodies result from retrieved constituents of the plasma-membrane protrusions, as they do not accumulate in unwounded drugtreated cells or in cells treated in W-5. These findings suggest that the protoplasmic protrusions accumulate membrane and cytoplasmic components that are retrieved and recycled during wound healing inErnodesmis by a novel mechanism. The combined plasma membrane surfaces of the microvillus-like protrusions may help to account for the drastic decrease in surface area that occurs during wound healing.Abbreviations SEM scanning electron microscopy - TEM transmission electron microscopy - W-7 N-[6-aminohexyl]-5-chloro-1-naph-thalenesulfonamide - W-5 N-[6-aminohexyl]-1-naphthalenesulfonamide
