层粘连蛋白与顺铂对腹水肝癌细胞内微丝的共同作用关系

本文探讨在外源性层粘连蛋白与抗癌药物顺铂的共同作用下,癌细胞内微丝组装的变化。结果发现外源性层粘连蛋白与小鼠腹水型肝癌细胞膜受体结合后,促进肌动蛋白微丝组装,使其含量增加;而多靶性抗癌药物顺铂与肌动蛋白微丝的结合,抑制微丝组装过程,造成微丝含量减少;两种试剂共同作用于癌细胞时,肌动蛋白微丝的含量与对照组相比非常接近。本研究为上述两种物质对癌细胞内微丝组装的拮抗性作用提出直接证据。

Differences in the In Vitro and In Vivo 5-Hydroxytryptamine Extraction Performance Among Three Common Microdialysis Membranes

The present study summarizes the results of an in vitro and in vivo comparison of the apparent 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid, and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid dialysis performance of three types of membrane frequently used in intracerebral microdialysis experiments. The dialysis fiber types examined were a regenerated cellulose Cuprophan (GF), a proprietary polycarbonate ether (CMA), and a polyacrylonitrile/sodium methallylsulfonate copolymer (HOSPAL). The experiments unexpectedly revealed that the HOSPAL membrane-equipped probes displayed clearly aberrant 5-HT diffusion dynamics compared with GF and CMA probes, demonstrable not only in vitro, but also in in vivo experiments. In vitro, the GF and CMA membrane-equipped probes exhibited maximum relative recovery for 5-HT already in the first 20-min sample, whereas the 5-HT recovery of HOSPAL probes increased in a very slow and protracted manner over a period of a little less than 2 h. The GF and CMA probes further displayed an immediate washout of 5-HT when the probes were subsequently transferred to artificial CSF only-containing medium (no 5-HT), whereas approximately 2 h was required to yield near-total extinction of dialysate 5-HT with the standard HOSPAL probes. In vivo, the rat ventral hippocampal dialysate 5-HT output responses to K+ (100 mM) infusion, to Ca2+ omission, and to systemic 8-hydroxy-2-(di-n-propylamino)tetralin injection were all markedly retarded and blunted when HOSPAL instead of GF membrane-equipped probes were used. However, the 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid extraction in vitro and in vivo were comparable using either of the membrane types.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Measuring the microelastic properties of biological material.

We have used the atomic force microscope (AFM) to measure the local rigidity modulus at points on the surface of a section of hydrated cow tibia. These data are obtained either from contrast changes that occur as the contact force is altered, or from force versus distance curves obtained at fixed points. These two methods yield the same values for rigidity modulus (at a given point). At low resolution, the elastic morphology and topography mirror the features seen in optical and electron micrographs. At high resolution we see dramatic variations in elastic properties across distances as small as 50 nm.     

Fractionation and quantitation of egg antigens from Schistosoma japonicum by the single-tube kinetic-dependent enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (k-ELISA): higher antigenic activity in urea-soluble than in aqueous-soluble fractions

To identify sources of high potency antigens for use in serodiagnosis, aqueous-soluble egg antigens from Schistosoma japonicum were extracted with Dulbecco's phosphate-buffered saline. Residual particulates were solubilized with Tris-buffered 8 M urea, yielding a urea-soluble egg antigen fraction. The urea-soluble fraction was further fractionated with Bio Gel A50m and QAE-Sephadex. All fractions were quantitatively assayed for their specific antigenic activities against serum specimens from infected rabbits by the single-tube enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (k-ELISA). In antigen rate-limiting conditions, the urea-soluble particulate fractions were more antigenically active than the aqueous-soluble fraction. In antigen-excess and antibody-limiting assay conditions, the ideal conditions for serologic assays, the urea-derived antigens also showed superior activities against sera from infected humans. Analysis by SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) on gradient gels revealed numerous low molecular weight protein bands in the aqueous-soluble fraction, whereas the urea-soluble fractions appeared to be much simpler with the majority of their proteins concentrated in one or two high molecular weight bands (greater than or equal to 200 kdaltons). Electro-transfer blots of the SDS-PAGE onto nitrocellulose papers and subsequent visualization of antigens by enzyme-linked immunoabsorbence confirmed these findings. The above data suggest that the urea-soluble fraction of S. japonicum eggs is antigenically active and has potential use in the development of a diagnostic reagent.     

Effects of 2,3-diphosphoglyceric acid on the human erythrocyte membrane phosphorylation system

The effect of 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-P2-glycerate) on the phosphorylation of spectrin in solution by purified membrane cyclic AMP-independent protein kinase and in membrane preparations by the endogenous kinase was investigated. 2,3-P2-Glycerate inhibited spectrin phosphorylation both in solution and in the intact membrane. Kinetic analyses showed that 2,3-P2-glycerate had no effect on the Km for ATP but appeared to lower the Vmax of the reaction. When the effect of 2,3-P2-glycerate was examined in the presence of varying concentrations of spectrin, competitive inhibition kinetics were obtained. Interestingly, low concentrations of 2,3-P2-glycerate were found to effect the release of the membrane kinase from erythrocyte membranes. This release reaction may be related to the ability of 2,3-P2-glycerate to interfere with the interaction between the kinase and spectrin. The data suggest the possibility that the kinase may be bound to spectrin in the erythrocyte membrane. 2,3-P2-glycerate also caused the solubilization of 3-phosphoglyceraldehyde dehydrogenase, but not of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase. Taken together, our data indicate that 2,3-P2-glycerate may have a regulatory role in membrane protein phosphorylation and also may regulate the extent of association of the kinase with the membrane.     

Inhibition of protein phosphorylation and induction of protein cross-linking in erythrocyte membranes by diamide

This report presents studies on the effect of diamide on protein phosphorylation in erythrocyte membranes. Diamide, a thiol-oxidizing reagent, nonspecifically inhibits cyclic Amp-dependent and -independent autophosphorylation of red cell memvranes, but not the activity of the solubilized membrane cycle AMP-independent protein kinases. Analysis of diamide-treated membranes by gel electrophoresis indicates that diamide is capable of inducing cross-linking of membrane proteins. The action of diamide, both in the inhibition of membrane autophosphorylation and in the cross-linking of membrane proteins, is very similar to that of Cu2+. o-phenanthroline complex. Our data indicate that diamide inhibits erythrocyte membrane autophosphorylation by perturbing the protein substrates.     

碳排放影响下的中国省域土地利用效率差异动态变化与影响因素

土地利用效率是衡量区域经济社会系统运行质量的重要参数。在构建了考虑非期望产出的土地利用效率评价指标体系基础之上,综合运用Super SBM-undesirable DEA和多元统计等研究方法,分析了2003—2016年碳排放影响下的中国省域土地利用效率的时空特征及其影响因素。研究结果表明:中国区域土地利用效率处于中低水平,碳排放非期望产出降低了15%的土地利用效率水平;与全国发展水平空间格局一致,土地利用效率省际差异在空间上呈现出自东向西逐渐递减的分异特征;2003—2016年,土地利用效率演化呈现出"U"型演进特征,区域差异呈现收敛态势;不考虑非期望产出的土地利用效率水平呈现下降态势;非期望产出和能源消费投入过大成为土地利用效率提升的主要限制因素。经济发展水平、对外开放程度以及固定资产投资对土地利用效率的提升起到了显著的正向作用;现阶段城镇化水平的增加对土地利用效率的提升具有微弱促进作用,且仅在东部地区具有显著性。基于松弛变量冗余度和影响因素分析,针对不同区域土地利用效率低效的差异性因素,提出了相应的对策措施。
