Synthesis of a nonacosapeptide (beta-fragment) corresponding to the N-terminal sequence 1-29 of human liver metallothionein II and its heavy metal-binding properties

A nonacosapeptide (beta-fragment) corresponding to the N-terminal sequence 1-29 of human liver metallothionein II was synthesized by the fragment condensation method. The Cd-binding ability of the beta-fragment was much stronger than that of cysteine as thionein and synthetic alpha-fragment corresponding to the C-terminal sequence 30-61 of human liver metallothionein II. Both the alpha- and beta-fragments bound preferentially to Cu ions rather than Cd ions.

Clastogen-induced chromosomal breakage as a marker for first trimester prenatal diagnosis of Fanconi anemia

Summary Using cultured trophoblast cells obtained by chorionic villus biopsy, we diagnosed Fanconi anemia (FA) in two pregnancies and excluded it in eight pregnancies at risk for the syndrome. Baseline chromosomal breakage and breakage induced by diepoxybutane (DEB) were analyzed. Increased breakage was used as a marker for the syndrome. Our results were unambiguous and provide a reliable method for prenatal detection of FA in the first trimester of pregnancy.     

Changes in the biological activity of agropyrene on combined application with humus substances in the cultivation ofScenedesmus obliquus (TURP.) krüger

The work is concerned with the question of the effect of humic acids on the biological action of agropyrene, the effective substance from the rootstock of Agropyron repens (L.) P. BEAUV. The test organism was the alga Scenedesmus obliquus (TURP.) KRÜGER, cultivated in mineral solution. The basic biological test was the determination of the number and size of the cells of this alga. It was found that the way in which agropyrene acts on combined application with humus acids depends on which humus fraction is used. It can display a synergic action if humic acid is used, since this substance probably facilitates the penetration of agropyrene into the cells. On the other hand, fulvic acid counteracts the activity of agropyrene and this most probably by mutual binding and blocking of active groups and links.     

脊髓灰质炎病毒中Ⅰ9株基因组克隆及其部分结构分析

以脊髓灰质炎病毒RNA为模板,反转录合成了长链ds-cDNA。将合成的脊灰病毒中I9株ds—cDNA片段重组到质粒pAT153上,获得了约占脊灰病毒中I9基因组95％以上的cDNA克隆。对克隆的中I9cDNA部分片段作了限制性内切酶图谱分析和部分核酸的序列分析,发现脊灰病毒中I9部分核酸顺序有所改变。     

青霉素G酰化酶α亚基Ser177的突变对酶活性的影响

用盒式突变和定点突变对大肠杆菌青霉素G酰化酶α亚基177位ser进行了突变研究,结果发现所挑选的突变体均无酶的活力,这一结果可能可以用来解释Ser 177附近肽段和一些青霉素结合蛋白青霉素结合区在一级结构上保持同源性的原因。

Detection of IgG and IgM antibodies with ELISA technique in human trichomoniasis

The direct wet mount examination of vaginal secretion, widely applied for the diagnosis of Trichomonas vaginalis infection in woman patients, is rapid and economical, however, the sensitivity of this technique is not so high. In this study enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed for the detection of serum anti-T. vaginalis IgG and IgM antibodies from 30 vaginal trichomoniasis patients and 30 non-infected healthy persons. The results were as follows: 1. Serum ELISA-IgG value was 0.37 +/- 0.134 (Mean +/- S.D.) in vaginal trichomoniasis patients and 0.21 +/- 0.054 in healthy controls (p less than 0.005), and the sensitivity and specificity of ELISA for serum IgG antibody were 70.0% and 96.7%, respectively. 2. Serum ELISA-IgM value was 0.33 +/- 0.177 (Mean +/- S.D.) in vaginal trichomoniasis patients and 0.11 +/- 0.051 in healthy controls (p less than 0.005), and the sensitivity and specificity of ELISA for serum IgM antibody were 70.0% and 96.7%, respectively. 3. The ELISA-IgG values showed a significant correlation with ELISA-IgM values (r = 0.77, p less than 0.005). With above results, it is assumed that ELISA is a reliable method for the diagnosis of T. vaginalis infection and simultaneous measurement of serum IgG and IgM with this technique is recommended.     

Cytotoxicity of resident and lymphokine-activated mouse peritoneal macrophage against Trichomonas vaginalis

This study was aimed to observe the direct and lymphokine-activated cell mediated cytotoxic effects against Trichomonas vaginalis by mouse peritoneal macrophages. Cytotoxicity was measured as release of 3H-thymidine from prelabeled protozoa, and tested in U-bottom microtiter plates. A 0.1 ml suspension of labeled protozoa (2 x 10(5)/ml) was placed in each well, followed by 0.1 ml of a suspension containing increasing numbers of peritoneal cells. After a 24 hr incubation at 37 degrees C, 0.1 ml of the supernatant was collected and counted in liquid scintillation counter. Mouse peritoneal macrophages had appreciable level of spontaneous cytotoxicity against T. vaginalis at the effector to target cell ratios from 5:1 to 50:1. Treatment of macrophages with lymphokine, produced by PHA-stimulated spleen cells, increased the cytotoxicity in comparison with resident macrophages against T. vaginalis. The degree of macrophage activation for the killing was not dependent upon the lymphokine concentration. Peritoneal cells adherent to plastic displayed significant levels of cytotoxicity against T. vaginalis. This study indicates that mouse peritoneal macrophages are spontaneously cytotoxic for T. vaginalis and lymphokine increases the cytotoxicity by activating macrophages to kill T. vaginalis.
