人工林赤腹松鼠危害程度与生境因子的关系研究

2009年3～6月,采用样方法对四川省洪雅县人工林赤腹松鼠危害相关的生境因子进行了调查。共设置了240个样方。样方调查中记录了2个反应危害等级的变量(危害株数和乔木总数)和11个生境变量(森林类型、海拔、坡向、坡度、坡位、距最近道路距离、距最近水源距离、乔木均高、乔木平均胸围、灌木盖度和草本盖度)。通过广义线性模型研究这些因子与人工林赤腹松鼠危害程度的关系。结果显示,赤腹松鼠危害程度与森林类型、坡度、坡向、乔木平均胸围呈显著性相关,与其他因子无显著相关性,在柳杉-杉木林中的危害高于纯柳杉林,在阴坡的危害低于其他坡向,危害程度随坡度和乔木平均胸围的增加而增加。     

GST genotypes and lung cancer susceptibility in Asian populations with indoor air pollution exposures: a meta-analysis

About half of the world's population is exposed to smoke from heating or cooking with coal, wood, or biomass. These exposures, and fumes from cooking oil use, have been associated with increased lung cancer risk. Glutathione S-transferases play an important role in the detoxification of a wide range of human carcinogens in these exposures. Functional polymorphisms have been identified in the GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 genes, which may alter the risk of lung cancer among individuals exposed to coal, wood, and biomass smoke, and cooking oil fumes. We performed a meta-analysis of 6 published studies (912 cases; 1063 controls) from regions in Asia where indoor air pollution makes a substantial contribution to lung cancer risk, and evaluated the association between the GSTM1 null, GSTT1 null, and GSTP1 105Val polymorphisms and lung cancer risk. Using a random effects model, we found that carriers of the GSTM1 null genotype had a borderline significant increased lung cancer risk (odds ratio (OR), 1.31; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.95-1.79; p=0.10), which was particularly evident in the summary risk estimate for the four studies carried out in regions of Asia that use coal for heating and cooking (OR, 1.64; 95% CI, 1.25-2.14; p=0.0003). The GSTT1 null genotype was also associated with an increased lung cancer risk (OR, 1.49; 95% CI, 1.17-1.89; p=0.001), but no association was observed for the GSTP1 105Val allele. Previous meta- and pooled-analyses suggest at most a small association between the GSTM1 null genotype and lung cancer risk in populations where the vast majority of lung cancer is attributed to tobacco, and where indoor air pollution from domestic heating and cooking is much less than in developing Asian countries. Our results suggest that the GSTM1 null genotype may be associated with a more substantial risk of lung cancer in populations with coal exposure.     

爱贝芙在修复面部软组织凹陷中的应用

目的:探讨爱贝芙在修复面部凹陷中的疗效.方法:根据凹陷程度估计爱贝芙用量,然后在面部凹陷部位的真皮网状层或真皮与皮下脂肪交界平面注射爱贝芙,轻压、按摩平整,而后局部用胶布固定三天.结果:爱贝芙能明显修复眼睑沟、鼻梁、鼻翼塌陷及先天的软组织凹陷,患者满意,对凹陷瘢痕虽能矫正凹陷,但无法改变瘢痕已有的色素改变,对唇的效果较差.结论:爱贝芙可以用来修复面部大部分软组织凹陷,且痛苦小、恢复快.     

环糊精及其衍生物在多肽/蛋白质类药物非注射给药体系中的应用

目前,多肽/蛋白质类药物多数需要采用注射剂型给药以确保其生物利用度。开发易于给药、病人顺应性高以及治疗费用更低的非注射剂型是非常有意义的。然而,多肽/蛋白质类药物直接进行非注射给药的生物利用度通常非常低,需要制备具有设计功能的载药系统,例如加入不同比例的酶抑制剂、吸收促进剂等以提高生物利用度。环糊精及其衍生物由于其能与客体分子形成包合物的特性,以及对粘膜的促渗透作用等,在多肽/蛋白质药物的非注射给药系统中获得了日益广泛的应用。综述了近年来环糊精及其衍生物在多肽/蛋白质类药物非注射给药体系中的应用情况。

我国云南食用牛肝菌的DNA条形码研究

iFlora是结合传统分类学与DNA测序和信息技术,通过系列关键技术进行集成,构建便捷、准确识别物种和掌握相关数字化信息的新一代智能植物志。iFlora研发中首要和迫切的任务之一就是寻找适合于大多数植物和经济蘑菇的标准DNA条形码序列。为筛选适合大型经济蘑菇的DNA条形码,本研究以云南食用牛肝菌为例,选取野生食用菌市场上常见的、被当地人认为的4“种”牛肝菌为研究对象,利用核糖体大亚基（nrLSU）、翻译延长因子1-α（tefl-α）、RNA聚合酶II大亚基（rpbl）和RNA聚合酶II的第二个大亚基（rpb2）四个DNA序列,使用真核生物通用引物进行扩增、测序和测试。研究发现这4“种”样品实际上代表了12个独立的物种,进一步研究表明4个候选片段的扩增和测序成功率均为100％,且不存在种问和种内变异的重叠。4个片段的物种分辨率均较高,但与nrLSU相比,rpbl、tefl-α和rpb2具有更为明显的条形码间隔。鉴于rpbl比tefl-α和rpb2具有更高的种间变异和较低的种内变异,建议将rpbl作为牛肝菌属的核心条形码,tefl-α和rpb2可作为该属的辅助条形码。     

The microRNA miR-17 regulates lung FoxA1 expression during lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe pulmonary disease that causes a high number of fatalities worldwide. Studies have shown that FoxA1 expression is upregulated during ALI and may play an important role in ALI by promoting the apoptosis of alveolar type II epithelial cells. However, the mechanism of FoxA1 overexpression in ALI is unclear. In this study, an in vivo murine model of ALI and alveolar type II epithelial cells injury was induced using lipopolysaccharide (LPS). LPS upregulated FoxA1 in the lung tissue of the in vivo ALI model and in LPS-challenged type II epithelial cells. In contrast, miR-17 was significantly downregulated in these models. After miR-17 antagomir injection, the expression of FoxA1 was significantly increased in ALI mice. MiR-17 mimics could significantly inhibit FoxA1 mRNA and protein expression, whereas the miR-17 inhibitor could significantly increase FoxA1 mRNA and protein expression in LPS-induced type II epithelial cells. Thus, our results suggest that the downregulation of miR-17 expression could lead to FoxA1 overexpression in ALI.
