农田休闲后土壤微生物类群和酶活性的变化及对西洋参种植的影响

研究农田经不同休闲年限后的土壤肥力、微生物类群和酶活性的关系.试验结果表明,农田土栽参在经过土壤体闲后土壤的有机质、速效氮和速效钾的含量均高于未经休闲的土壤.在休闲1年后,各类微生物的增长幅度是最大的.细菌增长了25倍,真菌增长5.6倍,放线菌增长4倍.当休闲2年后,微生物的增长速度明显降低.土壤在休闲1年后过氧化氢酶的活性提高了16%,蔗糖酶活性虽略有提高但差异不显著.休闲后土壤的氨化作用和硝化作用明显提高,其中休闲1年的土壤硝化作用比休闲前的提高33.5%.     

Cyclin G2 is degraded through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway and mediates the antiproliferative effect of activin receptor-like kinase 7

We have previously reported that Nodal, a member of the TGF-β superfamily, acts through activin receptor-like kinase 7 (ALK7) to inhibit ovarian cancer cell proliferation. To determine the mechanism underlying their effects, a cell cycle gene array was performed and cyclin G2 mRNA was found to be strongly up-regulated by Nodal and ALK7. To study the function and regulation of cyclin G2 in ovarian cancer cells, expression constructs were generated. We found that cyclin G2 protein level decreased rapidly after transfection, and this decrease was prevented by 26S proteasome inhibitors. Immunoprecipitation and pull-down studies showed that ubiquitin, Skp1, and Skp2 formed complexes with cyclin G2. Knockdown of Skp2 by siRNA increased, whereas overexpression of Skp2 decreased cyclin G2 levels. Nodal and ALK7 decreased the expression of Skp1 and Skp2 and increased cyclin G2 levels. Overexpression of cyclin G2 inhibited cell proliferation whereas cyclin G2-siRNA reduced the antiproliferative effect of Nodal and ALK7. Taken together, these findings provide strong evidence that cyclin G2 is degraded by the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway and that Skp2 plays a role in regulating cyclin G2 levels. Furthermore, our results also demonstrate that the antiproliferative effect of Nodal/ALK7 on ovarian cancer cells is in part mediated by cyclin G2.     

细胞因子基因转导对人乳腺癌细胞MHC抗原及细胞膜糖蛋白表达的影响

为探讨细胞因子基因(人IL-2、IL-6)转导对于肿瘤细胞膜MHC抗原及细胞膜糖蛋白表达调控的影响,本文利用脂质体介导的方法,将含人IL-6、IL-2基因的逆转录病毒载体分别导入人乳腺癌细胞系MCF-7细胞中,采用间接免疫荧光染色流式细胞仪测定法,对基因转导的瘤细胞细胞膜糖蛋白及MHC抗原表达进行测定。结果表明经两种基因修饰的MCF-7细胞MHCⅠ型抗原表达均获得增强,此外,基因转导细胞可程度不同地表现出细胞膜多种糖蛋白表达的变化。提示肿瘤细胞膜抗原及糖蛋白表达的改变可能是细胞因子基因转导影响肿瘤细胞免疫原性的重要结构基础。

转化生长因子β1在肾小管上皮细胞的信号介导分子

本研究在人肾小管上皮细胞系(HK-2)上探讨了介导转化生长因子β_1(TGFβ_1)生物学效应的信号介导分子。结果表明SMADs信号蛋白及ERK激酶均参与TGFβ_1的信号转导;通路特异性Smad2于TGFβ_1作用4小时后开始增加,持续至48小时;而抑制性Smad6于TGFβ_1作用1小时开始减少,4小时达到最低值,以后逐渐恢复;ERK只参与TGFβ抑制增殖效应,对TGFβ促进FN分泌无影响。     

Cell growth on microcarriers: comparison of proliferation on and recovery from various substrates

Three commercially-important types of cell were grown on four different microcarrier substrates. The cells, which included normal human diploid fibroblasts (MRC-5), primary chick embryo cells and Madin-Darby bovine kidney cells (MDBK), were compared with regard to proliferation on the substrates and with regard to recovery of viable cells from the same substrates. The substrates used included glass-coated microcarriers (Biosil), collagen microcarriers (Ventregel), DEAE-dextran microcarriers (Cytodex I) and collagen-linked DEAE-dextran microcarriers (Cytodex III). The established cell line (MDBK) grew well on all of the substrates and a high percentage of viable cells could be harvested from each substrate. The MRC-5 cells also grew well on all four substrates but high recovery rates were achieved only with cells grown on the glass-coated microcarriers or collagen microcarriers. In contrast, the primary chick embryo cells grew well only on the glass microcarriers and the recovery rate of cells harvested from this substrate was high. In some industrial operations, the re-utilization of cells after removal from the substrate is necessary. In these situations the appropriate choice of microcarriers for the cultivation of the cells may be critical.
