Otolith microstructure indicating growth and mortality among plaice, Pleuronectes platessa L., post-larval sub-cohorts

Growth and mortality of post-metamorphosed plaice were studied by means of daily increments in the sagittal otoliths. The Gompertz model was the best fit to length-at-age data and there were no significant differences between length-at-age and back-calculated lengths. The microstructure pattern of the otoliths at metamorphosis was also used to estimate hatching and settlement distributions. Differential growth and mortality occurred among sub-cohorts; growth rates and mortality were higher in fish that settled earlier. In 1986, the best survival was for a sub-cohort settling in late May to early June. In contrast, in the warmer season of 1987, survival was highest for the second and third sub-cohorts settling in late April and mid May.     

黑龙江桔梗科叶表皮研究

本文对分布在黑龙江省的桔梗料(Campanulaceae)植物叶表皮进行了光学显微镜和扫描电镜方面的观察。发现桔梗科植物的气孔复合体是不规则型的;毛状体是单细胞的,其表面的角质纹饰因类群而异;表皮角质纹饰可用于某些种间的鉴别。     

白细胞介素2受体α链基因转录起始点和5'调控区结合蛋白的初步研究

 借助于5'和3'末端删切后重建的IL-2R a链基因调控区次级克隆,在体外合成有放射性同位素参入的反意义RNA探针与总RNA进行液相杂交,结果表明TPA或PHA分别活化的T细胞在IL-2R a链表达过程中都在不同程度上有选择地利用了调控区内分别为-58(5')和+1(3')位两个转录起始点中3'转录起始点。热休克使PHA活化细胞更明显地利用+1位点。PHA诱导Jurkat细胞表达IL-2RamRNA斑点杂交证实,Jurkat细胞在活化16小时表达IL-2Ra基本达到高峰,至24小时已明显下降。根据这一规律提取PHA诱导活化15小时的Jurkat细胞S100和NE,进行有关结合蛋白的研究,初步结果显示磷酸纤维素柱的KCI洗脱组分中存在着DNA结合蛋白,有关结合蛋白性质的研究正在进行中。     

用定点突变技术研究转录终止——rpoBC操纵子上~tL7茎环结构的作用研究

 E.coli RNA聚合酶ββ'亚单位编码的基因rpoBC与核糖核蛋白基因rplJL共同构成rpoBC操纵子。rpl-rpo间区转录终止信号~tL7的转录产物RNA有两组富含C-G的反向对称结构及一串寡聚U;反向对称区可形成1:2和3:4茎环或单一5:6茎环。 用M13mp11噬菌体插入~tL7的112bp片段重组M13mp11-490,在此基础上用定点突变技术建立~tL7的七核苷酸缺失突变体,从而破坏1:2茎环,建成M13mp11-85。 分别把原型~tL7及缺失型~tL7~v克隆到表达质粒pHR24中,构建成pHR37(P_ftsQ~tL7-galk)及pHR24-9(p_ftsQ-~tL7~v-galk)。测定galk基因产物半乳糖激酶活性,推算转录的终止效率。结果表明:~tL7终止效率为50％,~tL7~v为20％。说明仅有3:4茎环及寡聚U,即具终止作用; 1:2茎环通过某种方式加强3:4茎环从而提高终止效率。     

丹参酮Ⅱ－A磺酸钠对鼠肝线粒体功能的影响

利用大鼠肝脏线粒体为材料,以琥珀酸为底物,研究了不同浓度的丹参酮Ⅱ－Ａ磺酸钠对线粒体态４、态３呼吸及呼吸控制率,线粒体跨膜电位,线粒体呼吸链复合体（Ⅱ＋Ⅲ）电子传递及质子转移活性的影响。结果证明丹参酮ⅡＡ－磺酸钠是线粒体呼吸链复合体（Ⅱ＋Ⅲ）的有效抑制剂。文中对丹参酮ⅡＡ－磺酸钠在心肌缺血再灌注过程中的保护作用的分子机理进行了讨论。     

汉防己甲素及克矽平对矽肺大鼠Ⅰ型和Ⅲ型胶原mRNA的影响

汉防己甲素（汉甲）及克矽平（Ｐｏｌｙｖｉｎｙｌｐｙｒｉｄｉｎｅ－Ｎ－Ｏｘｉｄｅ,ＰＶＮＯ）是目前较为有效的抑制矽肺纤维化的药物。本文研究了其对胶原ｍＲＮＡ水平的影响．斑点杂交实验表明大鼠接尘６０天和１２０天后α１（Ⅰ）及α１（Ⅲ）ｍＲＮＡ水平明显上升,经汉甲或克矽平治疗１个月或３个月后,胶原ｍＲＮＡ水平明显下降。原位杂交结果表明胶原ｍＲ－ＮＡ银颗粒与细胞性结节和增厚的肺泡壁的成纤维细胞分布重合。汉甲或克矽平治疗后银颗粒数下降。提示汉甲及克矽平对矽肺进程中的胶原基因表达增强有抑制作用。     

人鼻咽癌细胞基因组中瘤基因Ha－ras－1的Dnase Ⅰ超敏感位点的初步研究

ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点的研究能够发现潜在的调控基因转录活化的位点,比较正常人外周血有核细胞,淋巴瘤细胞株Ｐ３ＨＲ１和人鼻咽癌低分化磷癌细胞株ＨＯｎＥ１和ＨＮＥ２中Ｈａ－ｒａｓ－１瘤基因的ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点发现,只有ＨＯＮＥ１和ＨＮＥ２细胞基因组中存在一个ＤＮａｓｅⅠ超敏感位点,位于第一个外显子上游０．３７ｋｂ处,上述结果提示正常白细胞和Ｐ３ＨＲ１细胞中Ｈａ－ｒａｓ－１基因处于失活状态,而在鼻咽癌细胞基因组中则处于活化状态,它的活化可能与０．３７ｋｂ处的ＤＮＡ序列有密切的关系。     

Development of the respiratory swimbladder of Pangasius sutchi

The swimbladder of Pangusius sutchi first appears on the dorsal surface of the oesophagus at about 5 days after hatching. The swimbladder has double chambers when it is separated by a medial septum at 8–10 days. Alveoli start to develop and function in air-breathing at 12–14 days. Their number is increased by subdivision, and the respiratory portion grows towards the centre. Morphometric analysis shows that the swimbladder increases in respiratory surface, volume and surface area: volume ratio during development. On a histological basis, the development of the swimbladder is divided into three distinct periods: a blind tube, a double chamber and an alveolus period. It is characteristic that the flat epithelial cell arises from a primordial cuboidal cell and that a double capillary system is arranged in the interalveolar septa. Multilamellar bodies appear and a blood-air barrier is established when the swimbladder becomes functional.
