小球藻热水提取物功能成分的活性跟踪分离

本研究旨在以自由基清除作用和促巨噬细胞增殖作用为导向,对小球藻热水提取物(CPE)的分离纯化产物进行活性跟踪,以确定CPE的主要功能成分。采用高压热水提取、Sevag除蛋白、乙醇沉淀和超滤的方法得到CPE粗多糖,然后通过DEAE52离子交换层析柱和Sephadex G-100对CPE粗多糖组分进一步分离纯化。研究结果表明,通过上述方法对CPE进行分离纯化,得到3种高活性成分PS-1-4-2、PS-1-3-2和PS-2-3-3,经凝胶渗透色谱GPC分析得知其分子质量分别为3.97×10~4 Da、2.28×10~4 Da和4.1×10~3 Da。活性跟踪结果表明,CPE能够清除自由基并促进巨噬细胞Ana-1细胞生长,主要是由于其多种活性组分共同发挥作用,清除自由基作用的功能成分主要集中于PS-1-3、PS-1-4、PS-2-3和PS-2-4,促Ana-1细胞增殖作用的功能成分主要集中于PS-1-3、PS-1-4和PS-2-3。本研究确立了CPE主要功能成分的活性筛选手段,并获得3种新型功能成分,可用于指导小球藻高附加值产品的开发,从而进一步推动微藻能源的产业化进程,实现"高附加值微藻产品、微藻能源与微藻固碳"一体化的示范作用。     

Biology, fisheries, and conservation of sturgeons and paddlefish in China

This paper reviews five of the eight species of acipenseriforms that occur in China, chiefly those of the Amur and Yangtze rivers. Kaluga Huso dauricus and Amur sturgeon Acipenser schrenckii are endemic to the Amur River. Both species still support fisheries, but stocks are declining due to overfishing. Acipenseriformes of the Yangtze River are primarily threatened by hydroelectric dams that block free passage to spawning and feeding areas. The Chinese paddlefish Psephurus gladius now is rare in the Yangtze River system, and its spawning activities were severely limited by completion of the Gezhouba Dam in 1981. Since 1988, only 3–10 adult paddlefishes per year have been found below the dam. Limited spawning still exists above the dam, but when the new Three Gorges Dam is complete, it will further threaten the paddlefish. Artificial propagation appears to be the only hope for preventing extinction of P. gladius, but it has yet to be successfully bred in captivity. Dabry's sturgeon A. dabryanus is a small, exclusively freshwater sturgeon found only in the Yangtze River system. It is concentrated today in reaches of the main stream above Gezhouba Dam. The fishery has been closed since 1983, but populations continue to decline. Acipenser dabryanus has been cultured since the 1970s, and holds promise for commercial aquaculture; availability of aquacultural methods offers hope for enhancing natural populations. The Chinese sturgeon A. sinensis occurs in the Yangtze and Pearl rivers and seas of east Asia. There is still disagreement about the taxonomy of the Pearl and Yangtze River populations. The Yangtze River population is anadromous. Adults begin spawning at about age 14 years (males) and 21 years (females), and adults spend over 15 months in the river for reproduction. Spawning sites of A. sinensis were found every year since 1982 below the Gezhouba Dam, but it seems that insufficient suitable ground is available for spawning. Since 1983, commercial fishing has been prohibited but more measures need to be taken such as establishing protected areas and characterizing critical spawning, summering and wintering habitats.     

硫酸镁对大鼠海马CA1区神经元钠电流的抑制作用

利用全细胞膜片钳技术研究了硫酸镁 (MgSO4 )对大鼠海马CA1区神经元钠电流的影响。结果表明 ,MgSO4 可浓度依赖和电压依赖地抑制钠电流 ,半数抑制浓度为 4 0 5mmol/L。这一抑制作用与刺激频率无关。结果还表明 ,4mmol/LMgSO4 不影响钠电流的失活过程 ,却使半数激活电压由 - 5 5 8± 6 8mV变为 - 3 4 2± 6 2mV (n =8,P <0 0 1) ,而激活曲线的斜率因子不变。结果提示 ,MgSO4 抑制大鼠海马CA1区神经元的钠电流可能是其抗缺血缺氧造成的中枢神经系统损伤的机制之一

Metagenomic sequencing reveals viral abundance and diversity in mosquitoes from the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia region,China

BackgroundMosquitoes host and transmit numerous arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) that cause disease in both humans and animals. Effective surveillance of virome profiles in mosquitoes is vital to the prevention and control of mosquito-borne diseases in northwestern China, where epidemics occur frequently.MethodsMosquitoes were collected in the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia region (Shaanxi Province, Gansu Province, and Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region) of China from June to August 2019. Morphological methods were used for taxonomic identification of mosquito species. High-throughput sequencing and metagenomic analysis were used to characterize mosquito viromes.ResultsA total of 22,959 mosquitoes were collected, including Culex pipiens (45.7%), Culex tritaeniorhynchus (40.6%), Anopheles sinensis (8.4%), Aedes (5.2%), and Armigeres subalbatus (0.1%). In total, 3,014,183 (0.95% of clean reads) viral sequences were identified and assigned to 116 viral species (including pathogens such as Japanese encephalitis virus and Getah virus) in 31 viral families, including Flaviviridae, Togaviridae, Phasmaviridae, Phenuiviridae, and some unclassified viruses. Mosquitoes collected in July (86 species in 26 families) showed greater viral diversity than those from June and August. Culex pipiens (69 species in 25 families) and Culex tritaeniorhynchus (73 species in 24 families) carried more viral species than Anopheles sinensis (50 species in 19 families) or Aedes (38 species in 20 families) mosquitoes.ConclusionViral diversity and abundance were affected by mosquito species and collection time. The present study elucidates the virome compositions of various mosquito species in northwestern China, improving the understanding of virus transmission dynamics for comparison with those of disease outbreaks.     

Mapping of qGL7-2,a grain length QTL on chromosome 7 of rice

A residual heterozygous line(RHL)carrying a heterozygous segment between two SSR loci RM11 and RM134 on the rice chromosome 7 was selected from a set of recombinant inbred lines from the cross D50(javanica)/HB277(indica).The former parent produces much longer grains than the latter.Selfed progenies of this selection were analyzed genotypically(SSRs)and phenotypically(grain length).Grain length was discontinuously variable in the mapping populations,allowing for the placement of this QTL qGL7-2 within a～4.8 cM interval defined by RM351 and RM234.A set of new markers within this region were developed,which narrowed the QTL to a 278 kb region defined by the markers Indel1 and RM21945.This region contains 49 predicted genes.The results also suggest that the novel allele for grain length will be used for the application of marker assisted selection for the improvement of grain length.     

以单细胞免疫荧光技术观察烟草细胞融合过程中微管骨架的变化

本文建立了单细胞免疫荧光标记技术并以此结合单对细胞融合技术对细胞融合过程中微管骨架组织形式的动态变化进行了追踪观察。发现在聚乙二醇(PEG)诱导条件下,一旦细胞开始粘连,细胞内微管骨架便开始解聚。在细胞融合的整个过程中一直维持着这种解聚的状态,直到融合完成,在后续的培养中微管骨架才重新出现。在微管骨架呈解聚状态时融合产物不能完成与另外的细胞融合。实验揭示了细胞的再融合能力可能受细胞本身微管骨架状态的影响。该结果为解释高等植物如何避免多精入卵提供了新的可能性。
