小菜蛾成虫对沙芥的产卵嗜好性的初步研究

通过室内试验,比较了小菜蛾Plutella xylostellaL.对沙生十字花科蔬菜沙芥叶(PugioniumcornutumL.)、小白菜、油菜和甘蓝叶的产卵选择性。结果表明,产卵选择性顺序为沙芥≥小白菜>油菜>甘蓝,在沙芥叶上的产卵率是甘蓝叶上的9倍多;补充营养使小菜蛾成虫的产卵量平均提高2.5倍,产卵次数增加2倍,在有沙芥叶条件下,当日羽化的小菜蛾便可交尾产卵;在无沙芥叶条件下,小菜蛾成虫的产卵前期平均延迟1d左右。     

Aberrant Expression of Osteopontin and E-Cadherin Indicates Radiation Resistance and Poor Prognosis for Patients with Cervical Carcinoma

Radiotherapy is the first-line treatment for all stages of cervical cancer, whether it is used for radical or palliative therapy. However, radioresistance of cervical cancer remains a major therapeutic problem. Consequently, we explored if E-cadherin (a marker of epithelial-mesenchymal transition) and osteopontin could predict radioresistance in patients with locally advanced cervical squamous cell carcinoma (LACSCC). Patients were retrospectively reviewed and 111 patients divided into two groups (radiation-resistant and radiation-sensitive groups) according to progression-free survival (PFS). In pretreated paraffin-embedded tissues, we evaluated E-cadherin and osteopontin expression using immunohistochemical staining. The percentage of patients with high osteopontin but low E-cadherin expression in the radiation-resistant group was significantly higher than those in the radiation-sensitive group (p<0.001). These patients also had a lower 5-year PFS rate (p<0.001). Our research suggests that high osteopontin but low E-cadherin expression can be considered as a negative, independent prognostic factor in patients with LACSCC ([Hazard ratios (95% CI) 6.766 (2.940, 15.572)], p<0.001).

禽病原性大肠杆菌iro和tsh基因缺失株的构建

通过SSH和SCOTS研究, 铁系统(Iro)和温度敏感性血凝素(Tsh)在禽病原性大肠杆菌(APEC)的感染中可能发挥重要作用。基因检测发现, 在243个禽源大肠杆菌分离株中, 有205株为iro+菌株, 其中高、中度和低致病株分别为89.8%(184/205)、8.8%(18/205)和1.5%(3/205); 有167株为tsh+菌株, 高、中度、低致病株分别为87.4%(146/167)、12.6%(21/167)和0%(0/167), 结果显示iro+或tsh+株大多数为高致病株。为了确定iro和tsh基因在APEC致病力中的作用, 以APEC E037株为基础, 通过自杀性载体分别构建了iro和tsh基因缺失突变株E037(Δiro)、E037(Δtsh)和E037(ΔiroΔtsh)。动物感染性试验表明, 突变株在鸡体内的繁殖能力和致病性均明显下降, 但两个基因的协同致病作用不显著。进一步证实Iro和Tsh为APEC重要的致病因子。

恶性血液病患者外周血淋巴细胞亚群变化及其临床意义的研究

目的: 探讨恶性血液病外周血淋巴细胞亚群变化特征及临床意义。方法: 采用流式细胞仪检测64例初诊的血液系统恶性肿瘤患者的外周血淋巴细胞亚群。病种包括急性髓系白血病(acute myeloid leukemia,AML)、急性淋巴细胞白血病(acute lymphoblastic leukemia,ALL)、霍奇金淋巴瘤(Hodgkin’s lymphoma,HL)、非霍奇金淋巴瘤(Non-Hodgkinlymphoma,NHL)。分析比较30例正常人的外周血淋巴细胞亚群与实验组的差异,并对64例恶性血液病患者中连续动态监测的21例急性白血病患者外周血淋巴细胞亚群结果变化与预后关系进行分析。结果： 不同成人恶性血液病患者年龄分组淋巴细胞亚群变化无明显差异;恶性血液病患者中CD3 ⁺CD8 ⁺ T淋巴细胞百分比、Treg细胞百分比均增加;CD16 ⁺/CD56 ⁺NK细胞百分比及CD4 ⁺/CD8 ⁺比值均下降;CD3 ⁺T淋巴细胞数量、CD3 ⁺CD4 ⁺淋巴细胞数、CD3 ⁺CD8 ⁺淋巴细胞数量、CD3 ^-CD19 ⁺淋巴细胞数量、CD16 ⁺/CD56 ⁺NK淋巴细胞数量及CD4 ⁺/CD8 ⁺比值均减少;急性白血病及恶性淋巴瘤患者外周血淋巴细胞亚群与正常对照组比较存在一定的差异;急性白血病未缓解组的Treg细胞比例明显高于急性白血病首疗程缓解组及对照组;急性白血病复发组Treg细胞比例明显高于急性白血病持续缓解组以及对照组;对21例急性白血病患者动态监测的淋巴细胞亚群发现,化疗缓解的患者Treg在化疗过程中逐渐下降,至第3~6个疗程逐渐接近正常对照,化疗未缓解的患者Treg细胞在化疗过程中逐渐上升或持续大于10%,明显高于完全缓解组,复发患者Treg在化疗过程中先下降后明显上升。 结论： 恶性血液病患者免疫功能显著低于健康人,且伴随免疫功能紊乱,且不同疾病类型、不同的疾病状态免疫紊乱的程度不一,Treg细胞比例可以用来预测急性白血病患者疗效及复发,可以为患者的临床治疗方案及用药强度提供指导依据。     

Genetic differentiation of Pseudoregma bambucicola population based on mtDNA COII gene

mtDNA COII gene sequences were identified and analyzed using different types of software, namely, MEGA5.0, DNAMAN, and DnaSP5.0 in four Chinese provinces, namely, Sichuan, Zhejiang, Guizhou and Shanghai. Analysis of molecular genetic variation and its genetic structure and differentiation, combined with NJ tree, MP tree analysis and analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA), at Fst = 0.0582 conclude that the genetic differentiation is low, gene flow is Nm = 8.0911, and gene exchange is sufficient. However, for the geographic populations of Pseudoregma bambucicola in the four provinces, their gene exchange is relatively weak at Nm = 0.8284, whereas the genetic differentiation is high at Fst = 0.3764. Based on the data, total nucleotide diversity between the populations is 0.00158 ± 0.00021. The results showed that the total population of Tajima’s D and Fu’s Fs results are D = ?0.885 and Fs = 0.226, respectively. The experimental numerical results showed that this total population is not significant (P > 0.10), indicating that nine different geographic populations are short-term. No expansion occurred in the internal population. This study provided a theoretical and practical basis for the comprehensive prevention and control of P. bambucicola.

Mechanism and rate constants of the Cdc42 GTPase binding with intrinsically disordered effectors

Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are often involved in signaling and regulatory functions, through binding to cellular targets. Many IDPs undergo disorder‐to‐order transitions upon binding. Both the binding mechanisms and the magnitudes of the binding rate constants can have functional importance. Previously we have found that the coupled binding and folding of any IDP generally follows a sequential mechanism that we term dock‐and‐coalesce, whereby one segment of the IDP first docks to its subsite on the target surface and the remaining segments subsequently coalesce around their respective subsites. Here we applied our TransComp method within the framework of the dock‐and‐coalesce mechanism to dissect the binding kinetics of two Rho‐family GTPases, Cdc42 and TC10, with two intrinsically disordered effectors, WASP and Pak1. TransComp calculations identified the basic regions preceding the GTPase binding domains (GBDs) of the effectors as the docking segment. For Cdc42 binding with both WASP and Pak1, the calculated docking rate constants are close to the observed overall binding rate constants, suggesting that basic‐region docking is the rate‐limiting step and subsequent conformational coalescence of the GBDs on the Cdc42 surface is fast. The possibility that conformational coalescence of the WASP GBD on the TC10 surface is slow warrants further experimental investigation. The account for the differences in binding rate constants among the three GTPase‐effector systems and mutational effects therein yields deep physical and mechanistic insight into the binding processes. Our approach may guide the selection of mutations that lead to redesigned binding pathways. Proteins 2016; 84:674–685. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
