褶纹冠蚌珍珠囊发育的研究

以褶纹冠蚌(Cristaria plicata Leach)为实验对象,应用光学显微技术和扫描电子显微技术研究珍珠囊的发育,结果表明在水温16℃左右时约需30d形成具有单层上皮细胞的珍珠囊,6个月后稳定分泌珍珠质。构成珍珠囊的上皮细胞从高柱状逐渐变成扁平状或立方形,细胞的碳酸酐酶污性也日益增强。大部分移植细胞小片的结缔组织与母蚌的结缔组织共同成层排列在珍珠囊腔外围。游走细胞在珍珠囊的早期发育阶段十分活跃。本文还阐明了珍珠囊液是存在于上皮细胞与珍珠表面之间的一薄层流体状物质。碳酸钙结晶的核化(nucleation)和初期生长都发生在珍珠囊液中。     

华北地区汉族的Lewis、ABO、MN、Rh、P等血型系统和ABH分泌型的分布

调查了原籍华北地区汉族的ABO、Lewis、MN、Rh、P等血型系统和ABH分泌型的分布,结果表明:O型(33.44％)和B型(29.38％)较多;N型(27.97％)略多于M型(27.65％);Le(a )型的频率很高(24.17％)。在94人中还发现四名Le(a )型属于ABH分泌型,且都属于分泌A或B血型物质的类型,无一例为分泌H血型物质的类型;Rh(D)阴性率仅0.3％,CCDee和CcDE型占75％以上;P_1( )型占39.1％;ABH分泌型占72％,低于全国其他民族中已知的分布。     

Microcapillary clonogenic assays for human marrow hematopoietic progenitor cells

The capillary clonogenic cell assay was developed and adapted to culture myeloid and erythroid colonies from human bone marrow cells. The plating efficiencies for femoral bone marrow granulocyte-macrophage progenitors (CFU-gm), erythroid colony-forming units (CFU-e) and erythroid burst-forming units (BFU-e) were 0.143%, 0.229% and 0.141%, respectively. Standard bone marrow progenitor Petri dish assays require a total culture volume of 1 ml per dish, and as such are not suitable for the small numbers of cells often obtained from human bone marrow samples. The microcapillary assay as developed and standardized in our laboratory has the unique advantage of being able to utilize small numbers of cells. This technique is suitable for evaluating the myelotoxicity of investigational new anti-cancer and anti-HIV agents and for further investigation of the mechanisms underlying chemotherapy-induced bone marrow toxicity.     

MiR-203 Suppresses ZNF217 Upregulation in Colorectal Cancer and Its Oncogenicity

Zinc finger protein 217 (ZNF217) is essential for cell proliferation and has been implicated in tumorigenesis. However, its expression and exact roles in colorectal cancer (CRC) remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that ZNF217 expression was aberrantly upregulated in CRC tissues and associated with poor overall survival of CRC patients. In addition, we found that ZNF217 was a putative target of microRNA (miR)-203 using bioinformatics analysis and confirmed that using luciferase reporter assay. Moreover, in vitro knockdown of ZNF217 or enforced expression of miR-203 attenuated CRC cell proliferation, invasion and migration. Furthermore, combined treatment of ZNF217 siRNA and miR-203 exhibited synergistic inhibitory effects. Taken together, our results provide new evidences that ZNF217 has an oncogenic role in CRC and is regulated by miR-203, and open up the possibility of ZNF217- and miR-203-targeted therapy for CRC.     

红松越冬针叶的电子自旋共振（ESR）波谱

用ESR波谱仪在越冬红松针叶及叶绿体冻干粉中检出了g值分别为2.0044和2.0037的明确的单峰信号。针叶伤害愈重,信号愈强。此信号可被Vc或富含SOD等多种自由基清除剂的沙棘果汁所抑制。针叶受害愈重,沙棘果汁对信号的抑制作用愈强,Vc的抑制作用愈弱。据此认为红松苗越冬伤害和有机自由基的形成有关。在伤害发展的不同阶段,有机自由基的种类组成也不同。
