内蒙古西伯利亚棘球绦虫和多房棘球绦虫泡状蚴在小白鼠发育成熟的比较

本文报道人兽共患的泡状肝包虫病原,西伯利亚棘球绦虫Echinococcus sibiricensis (Rausch andSchiller, 1954)泡状蚴和多房棘球绦虫Ech inococcusmultilocularis ( Leuckart, 1863)泡状蚴在KM株小白鼠发育成熟过程比较观察的结果.此两虫种泡状蚴的发育成熟过程仍然和它们早期发育的规律(唐崇惕等,2001)相同.虽然它们成熟的泡囊都被着生在网状结构中的许多原头节所充满,但是在多房棘球绦虫9-14个月的泡状蚴,仍然可以见到它们的原头节和网状结构都是起源于泡囊囊壁内表面的胚细胞层,并且始终保持与该层的联系.而西伯利亚棘球绦虫泡状蚴在鼠肺脏或肝脏的各泡囊中的原头节和网状结构是由可移动的胚细胞团发育生成,它们与泡囊囊壁没有如前者样的联系.西伯利亚棘球泡状蚴在各别小白鼠肝脏也能发育成熟,但不正常,宿主反应异常强烈.     

SUMOylation and PARylation cooperate to recruit and stabilize SLX4 at DNA damage sites

SUMOylation plays important roles in the DNA damage response. However, whether it is important for interstrand crosslink repair remains unknown. We report that the SLX4 nuclease scaffold protein is regulated by SUMOylation. We have identified three SUMO interaction motifs (SIMs) in SLX4, mutating all of which abrogated the binding of SLX4 to SUMO-2 and covalent SLX4 SUMOylation. An SLX4 mutant lacking functional SIMs is not recruited to PML nuclear bodies nor stabilized at laser-induced DNA damage sites. Additionally, we elucidated a novel role for PARylation in the recruitment of SLX4 to sites of DNA damage. Combined, our results uncover how SLX4 is regulated by post-translational modifications.
