体外培养小鼠下颌下腺细胞生长特性的实验研究

目的：研究小鼠下颌下腺细胞的培养方法,探讨下颌下腺细胞培养条件及细胞生长特性,为研究干细胞转分化涎腺腺泡细胞以及涎腺再生研究奠定理论基础和技术支持。方法：取2周龄的小鼠,组织块法和消化法分别进行培养,用活细胞观察法和HE染色法记录细胞形态学特征;免疫荧光染色法鉴定;通过生长曲线和细胞倍增时间来比较两种方法对细胞增殖能力的影响。结果：组织块法和消化法均可以成功的培养下颌下腺细胞,（1）组织块法培养的细胞呈卵圆形或多边形,10天左右成铺路石样;消化法培养细胞亦为上皮样细胞,呈多边形,胞质丰富;（2）HE染色下颌下腺细胞呈多边形,胞核明显;（3）Cytokeratin13和AQP5表达阳性,Wimentin表达阴性;（4）组织块法培养细胞增殖相对较平缓,消化法培养细胞增长较迅速;（5）消化法培养倍增时间（1．3471±0．6071）天比组织块法倍增时间（2．1887±1．1503）明显缩短（P〈0．05）;结论：体外可以成功的培养下颌下腺细胞,但是同时证明下颌下腺细胞长期传代较困难,这为研究干细胞转分化涎腺细胞和涎腺再生体内实验提供了理论和实验基础。     

新Y-STR DYS605在山西汉族人群中的多态性分布

为了应用更多的Y染色体特异性STR基因座以用于法医学和人类遗传学研究,本文用PCR结合PAGE技术检测128例山西汉族无关男性DYS605等位基因分布状况。结果显示：山西地区汉族男性DYS605基因座观察到22,21,20,19,18共5个等位基因,基因频率分别为0.0156;0.1797;0.4531;0.2891;0.0625。等位基因20和19之间的电泳距离在非变性胶上非常接近,要有足够的电泳距离才能区分。测序表明该基因座包括3个串联重复区,其中一个为可变重复区。20例女性DNA未发现扩增产物。Abstract: We study the polymorphism at DYS605 ,a new tetranucleotide Y-STR locus,in a Chinese Han population of Shanxi to meet the need of more genetic markers in forensic practice and genetic analysis. DNA were extracted from 128 unrelated male venous blood, and amplified using GDB primers. PCR products were detected using non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and silver staining. Five alleles named 22,21,20,19,18 were observed with frequency of 0.0156;0.1797;0.4531;0.2891;0.0625. PCR products were not found in female DNA. Using a long enough gel for a long electrophoresis time is strongly encouraged because the rung between allele 20 and allele19 is smaller than expected. Allele sequences show that the repetitive units of DYS605 were composed with the variant units and non-variant units.     

蜣螂后胸叉骨形态演化趋势及其在系统发育分析中的意义(鞘翅目:金龟科)

后胸叉骨是昆虫胸部的内骨骼,是重要的肌肉联结点,在昆虫运动中起着不可替代的作用。该结构在鞘翅目高级阶元系统发育关系重建中扮演了重要角色,但由于其在低级阶元间的差异较小以及在形态分析中使用困难等因素限制,致使后胸叉骨的研究并未受到广泛重视。国内学者对于甲虫后胸叉骨的研究非常少,甚至长期以来没有中文名称,相关内容只零星散布于教科书和学位论文中,针对蜣螂后胸叉骨形态学研究尚未见报道。本文对金龟科蜣螂亚科9族65种的后胸叉骨进行了详细的比较形态学研究,归纳了族级形态特征,进而探究蜣螂后胸叉骨形态演化趋势及其在系统发育分析中的意义。此外,还对利用现代形态学和几何形态学等方法研究后胸叉骨功能形态的前景进行了阐述。     

A sauropod rib with an embedded theropod tooth: direct evidence for feeding behaviour in the Jehol group,China

Xing, L, Bell, P.R., Currie, P.J., Shibata, M., Tseng, K. & Dong, Z. 2012: A sauropod rib with an embedded theropod tooth: direct evidence for feeding behaviour in the Jehol group, China. Lethaia, Vol. 45, pp. 500–506. A fragmentary rib from the Lower Cretaceous (Barremian) Yixian Formation in northeastern China preserves rare, direct evidence of feeding behaviour by an unidentified theropod. The rib, which comes from the holotype of Dongbetitan, preserves an embedded, broken theropod tooth. Comparison of the tooth with all known theropods from the Yixian Formation suggests that it belongs to a new taxon of medium‐sized theropod. Given the large size difference between the sauropod and the theropod and the absence of reactive bone growth around the tooth, the bite likely occurred post‐mortem during scavenging. Recognition of a new, medium‐sized theropod increases the known diversity of taxa from the Yixian Formation and helps fill a gap in the theropod palaeoecology of that formation, which previously consisted of only small (<2 m) forms. □China, Cretaceous, feeding behaviour, theropod, titanosauriformes, sauropod.     

Relationship Between Gene Differential Expression of Leaves in Full Opening Flower Stages of Hybrids & Their Parents and Heterosis in Pest-resistant Cotton

cDNAs of leaves of 24 pest-resistant cotton (authorization) crosses and their parents in full opening flower stages were amplified and different bands were displayed by DDRT-PCR, with 45 primer combinations. The mean percentage of bands duplicated was 70.1%, which implied that there was a high proportion of pseudopositive fragments in the amplified cDNA. These pseudopositive bands can be reduced using duplicate PCR. Correlation analysis between differential gene expression and hybrid performance and heterosis showed that M4 (bands detected in one parent and F₁) was positively correlated with all yield traits, and significantly correlated with boll number; M2 (bands observed in one parent but not in F₁ and another parent) was negatively correlated with heterosis of boll number; and M3 (bands observed only in F₁) was positively correlated with heterosis of lint yield. These results showed that genes that had dominant and specific expression in top leaves of full opening flower stages were beneficial to yield formation and heterosis occurrence.     

枸杞体细胞胚发生中DNA代谢动态的立体计量

本文以宁夏枸杞无菌苗叶片为材料,离体培养,并诱导体细胞胚胎发生。根据细胞形态计量学原理,应用数字图像处理软件计量由光学底片经A/D转换成的数字图像中的DNA大分子,对枸杞体细胞胚发生过程中DNA分子的代谢动态进行量化分析。结果表明：在整个体细胞胚发生过程中DNA代谢呈现动态变化。非胚性细胞与胚性细胞期的量化值分别为1.82%和1.91%;在二细胞胚、四细胞胚、多细胞胚时期DNA缓慢增长,随着胚性愈伤组织的发育,DNA的含量在梨形胚时期达到高峰;成熟胚的DNA含量虽有所下降,但仍维持较高水平。因此DNA的合成动态变化与体胚生长发育和细胞增殖密切相关。     

稻飞虱天敌螯蜂研究进展

稻飞虱（褐飞虱Nilaparvata lugens、白背飞虱Sogatella furcifera、灰飞虱Laodelphax striatellus）是世界性重要的水稻Oryza sativa L.害虫之一,给水稻生产造成了重大经济损失。化学防治一直是控制稻飞虱的主要途径,但长期使用化学药剂使稻飞虱产生抗药性,并引起害虫增殖等诸多弊端,迫切需要有效的生物防控手段进行控害。螯蜂是稻飞虱若虫和成虫期重要天敌,兼具捕食与寄生的双重习性,在控制稻飞虱种群数量方面发挥着重要的作用,然而,国内外有关螯蜂的研究报道仍然偏少。本文综述了我国稻飞虱天敌螯蜂常见种类、生物学特性、控害效果及其影响因子,分析了存在的问题,旨在为进一步开发利用螯蜂资源提供参考。     

休眠卵孵化对策与食物浓度对萼花臂尾轮虫(Brachionus calyciflorus)两品系干雌体种群增长的影响

周期性孤雌繁殖的轮虫靠休眠卵度过不良环境,等环境适宜时休眠卵孵化出干雌体,再次通过孤雌繁殖建立种群。通常休眠卵要经历一段休眠期再孵化,但也有些休眠卵生成后很快孵化,称为早孵化现象。有关休眠卵不同孵化对策如何影响其干雌体克隆种群的增长,目前尚不清楚。分别观测了萼花臂尾轮虫（Brachionus calyciflorus）的两个品系H1（窄温度生态位）和D1（宽温度生态位）的休眠卵在不同孵化对策和不同食物浓度下所生产的干雌体克隆群的种群增长差异。孵化对策包括早孵化（early hatching,EH）和晚孵化（late hatching,LH）;食物浓度包括高食物浓度（high food concentration,HF：2×10⁶个细胞/mL）和低食物浓度（low food concentration,LF：5×10⁵个细胞/mL）,每个品系下各设置4个实验组（LH-HF、LH-LF、EH-HF、EH-LF）,每组10个重复。结果发现,对D1品系来说：孵化对策和食物浓度对最大种群数量具有显著的综合影响（P=0.002）,但两因素间不存在交互作用（P=0.911）;早孵化的干雌体种群在最大种群数量上显著高于晚孵化的干雌体种群（P=0.001）。对H1品系：孵化对策和食物浓度对最大种群数量综合影响显著（P<0.001）,且两个因素之间存在交互作用（P<0.001）;高食物浓度下,EH干雌体克隆群的最大种群数量显著低于LH干雌体克隆群（P<0.001）。高食物浓度下干雌体克隆群开始有性生殖的密度阈值,D1品系EH组显著高于LH组（P=0.041）;而H1品系EH组却显著低于LH组（P=0.022）。最高种群密度下,H1品系的有性生殖率在两种孵化对策之间存在显著差异（P=0.044）,EH种群的有性生殖率低于LH种群,而D品系却未见有性生殖率在不同孵化对策间存在明显差异。本研究结果显示休眠卵的孵化对策会影响其后代干雌体种群的增长特性,其影响的结果可能与种群的生境适应相关。     

嗜肺巴斯德杆菌研究进展

嗜肺巴斯德杆菌(Pasteurella pneumotropica)是一种条件致病菌,人兽共患。主要危害啮齿类动物,特别是免疫缺陷或抑制的动物,可引起炎症和脓肿等症状。该菌是实验动物中感染率最高的病原菌之一,多呈隐性感染,给动物实验带来了极大的干扰。本文针对嗜肺巴斯德杆菌的流行病学、检测和鉴定、分子分型和防治等方面进行综述。
