高滴度单克隆抗体杂交瘤细胞系获得途径的探讨

为探索获得能分泌较高价单克隆抗体杂交瘤细胞系的途径,比较了用不同免疫方法得到的小鼠脾细胞制备杂交瘤,对其产生有效瘤和高价抗体分泌瘤的影响。用不使小鼠致病的病毒(如NDV)或巳灭活的病毒作为抗原时,以较高浓度加佐剂、长间隔(30天)、多次免疫效果较好。用能使小鼠感染的病毒作为免疫原时,以活病毒的亚致死剂量感染小鼠,取其脾细胞制备杂交瘤,效果最理想。有效杂交瘤产率高,分泌高效价抗体的杂交瘤细胞系也多。探讨了从免疫方法着手,定向研制高价单克隆抗体杂交瘤细胞系的可行性。     

从乙型肝炎病毒表面抗原阳性母亲流产的胎儿查出乙型肝炎病毒标志

应用Southern blot杂交试验检测HBsAg及HBeAg均阳性母亲流产的9例胎儿肝细胞中HBV DNA的存在状态,并与其HBV血清学、免疫电镜及肝脏免疫组织化学的结果相比较。结果在3例胎肝高分子DNA中检出了整合的HBV DNA顺序,且此3例HBV DNA整合到胎肝细胞基因组并无特定部位,提示为随机整合。3例中2例的血清及肝匀浆都检出HBsAg颗粒,其胎肝细胞胞浆HBsAg也阳性;另1例受HBV感染的唯一标志是在胎肝细胞中存在着整合的HBVDNA。此外,另1例则仅胎肝细胞中HBsAg阳性而无整合的HBV DNA。在胎肝细胞中检出整合的HBV DNA进一步证实HBV子宫内传播途径的存在。     

琼脂糖平板制备聚焦电泳法进一步提纯胸腺素组分五

用琼脂糖平板等电聚焦电泳法,由胸腺素组分五中分离出三种在聚焦电泳谱上是单一谱线的多肽成份——CP1、CP2和CP3,等电点分别为4.3、4.9和5.6。测定了这些多肽对脐带血中淋巴细胞形成羊红细胞玫瑰花的影响。与对照相比,CP1(2微克/0.6毫升),和CP3(0.2-2微克/毫升)分别在统计学上呈显著和非常显著差异。在相同测定条件下,这三种多肽成份的活性均高于化学合成的胸腺多肽——胸腺素α_1。     

担子菌多糖及羊脾RNA对肿瘤的抑制与有关组织中cAMP含量关系的探讨

本文讨论了对带瘤小鼠注射香菇多糖、松口蘑多糖和羊脾RNA后,活体内有关组织中cAMP含量与抑瘤率之间的关系。 结果表明,上述活性物质不仅增强了机体免疫活性,同时亦促使机体内脾、瘤等组织的cAMP增高,此种增高,与抑瘤率成正相关。     

棉酚对鼠类生精细胞LDH-X活性的影响

本文测定了连续饲喂棉酚达6周的大鼠和小鼠的生精细胞的LDH-X活性。结果表明,棉酚能够明显地抑制大鼠成熟精子的LDH-X活性;而对睾丸LDH-X活性的抑制,与对照相比,无显著性差异。在小鼠中,未发现棉酚对成熟精子及睾丸生精细胞中的LDH-X活性产生具统计学意义的抑制作用。本文结合精子发生过程及LDH-X的特殊功能,对棉酚抗生育作用的可能机理进行了讨论。     

用双相电泳技术分析棉酚对大鼠成熟精子蛋白质组成的影响

本文首次将双相电泳(等电聚焦和SDS电泳)技术应用于对棉酚作用机理的研究。实验结果表明,棉酚能够改变大鼠成熟精子的蛋白质组成;同时也证明,双相电泳这一技术对棉酚的研究是有效的。     

~(60)CO-γ射线诱发的德国蜚蠊精母细胞中心体畸变

德国蜚蠊经不同剂量的~(60)Co-γ射线照射,以光镜和电镜观察精母细胞巨大中心体结构和数目的变化,发现:γ射线可诱发各种类型中心体畸变,如棒状、断裂、不分离、超数和微小中心体等;畸变率随剂量增加而升高;畸变类型和辐射剂量有密切关系,低剂量(500—1000r)诱发较多的棒状中心体和中心体断裂、中等剂量(2000r)诱发较多的超数中心体和中心体不分离、高剂量(5000r)诱发较多的微小中心体,看来低剂量γ射线主要影响中心体结构,高剂量则对中心体的生长发育有明显的阻滞作用。本文还讨论了中心体畸变的可能产生机制及在遗传毒理研究中应用的前景。     

Sarcolectin: an interferon antagonist extracted from hamster sarcomas and normal muscles. Isolation, characterization, and purification

In the present work we show that sarcoma and normal hamster tissues contain a protein which agglutinates normal and transformed cells. The inhibition of agglutination by galacturonic acid and occasionally by fucose suggests a resemblance of this protein with vegetal lectins. When added 5 h after interferon, the crude semipurified and electrophoretically homogeneous preparations reduce within 20 h the antiviral state pre-established by interferon. These two biological tests have enabled us to monitor the subsequent purification steps. The isolation of the biologically active protein is greatly facilitated by its resistance to pepsin and nucleases, whereas its sensitivity to trypsin and Pronase suggests its proteinaceous character. Furthermore, the molecule is stable when heated 1-2 min at 100 degrees C in the presence or absence of sodium dodecyl sulfate. After pepsin treatment, Sephacryl G-200 gel filtration, and ion exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, 25-40-fold purification can be obtained. When controlled by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, a double band (DEAE-cellulose sample) or single band (octyl-agarose sample) is detected in the 65,000-dalton region and no other contaminator is present. The eluted protein retains full biological activity when assayed by the degradation of the interferon-induced antiviral protection in the cell or titrated by cell agglutination.     

Acyl-CoA oxidase from Candida tropicalis

Acyl coenzyme A oxidase (acyl-CoA oxidase) has been isolated in good yield from Candida tropicalis pK 233 grown on n-alkanes. Gel filtration, sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, and measurement of flavin content suggest that the oxidase is an octamer of Mr 75 000 subunits each containing one flavin. The oxidase yields the red semiquinone form on dithionite or photochemical reduction, slowly forms an N-5 adduct with 0.16 M sulfite at pH 7.4, and is rapidly reduced by borohydride, forming the 3,4-dihydroflavin isomer. The red flavosemiquinone is only kinetically stabilized with respect to disproportionation in the free enzyme but is thermodynamically stabilized on binding enoyl-CoA derivatives. The enzyme is reduced by butyryl-, octanoyl-, and palmitoyl-CoA without formation of prominent long-wavelength bands. Acyl-CoA oxidase and the acyl-CoA dehydrogenases share many similarities in their interaction with CoA derivatives. For example, both enzymes stabilize the anionic radical on binding enoyl-CoA derivatives, both dehydrogenate 2-oxoheptadecyldethio-CoA but cannot utilize S-heptadecyl-CoA, both form long-wavelength bands with CoA persulfide species, and both enzymes are attacked by the suicide substrates 3,4-pentadienoyl-CoA and (methylene-cyclopropyl)acetyl-CoA at the flavin prosthetic group.
