人胃癌不同周期细胞膜表面ConA受体的分布与侧向运动

本文研究了人胃低分化粘液性腺癌细胞MGC 80-3不同周期时相中ConA受体的分布与侧向运动。MGc 80-3细胞经同步化培养,用F-ConA标记。被标记细胞中G_1、S和G_2期呈不连续的分布,但它们之间又存在显著的差异。M期呈较均匀的强荧光分布(与其它时相细胞比较)。荧光漂白恢复方法测定ConA受体复合物侧向运动表明:各个周期时相之间不仅运动方式不同,而且运动速率也有显著差异。M期与G_1期主要表现出扩散型运动;而S期与G_2期表现为流动型运动。G_1期的扩散系数大干M期的;S期的流动速率大于G_2期的。但可动分子百分比以G_2期最高。这些结果表明了ConA受体的动力学性质。它受到细胞周期的调节。

几种抗菌药物对腹泻羔羊肠道细菌的影响及临床观察

通过对治疗前后腹泻羔羊粪便细菌检查及临床观察,以查明两种抗菌药物对腹泻羔羊肠道细菌的影响。结果表明,腹泻羔羊治疗前粪便中的革兰氏阳性杆菌,革兰氏阳性球菌及革兰氏阴性杆菌的比例分别为20％、10％和70％。用敌菌净治疗的效果显著,其羔羊肠道细菌的比例接近健康羔羊。用庆大霉素治疗的羔羊,部分出现不良反应,其肠道细菌出现失调状态。     

Post-translational modifications of proteins: some problems left to solve

Three major questions regarding the post-translational modification of amino acid side chains in proteins are briefly considered: (1) What are the biological functions of the reactions, (2) what is the specificity of the processing reactions in selecting only a few or sometimes even only one residue for modification, and (3) how do we solve the uniqueness of the processing steps in the production of recombinant proteins? The answers to these questions are not obvious at this time.     

Activation of murine T cells by toxic shock syndrome toxin-1. The toxin-binding structures expressed on murine accessory cells are MHC class II molecules

Toxic shock syndrome toxin-1 (TSST-1)-binding structures present on murine lymphoid tissues were investigated by using 125I-TSST-1. T-depleted C57BL/6 spleen cells incubated with TSST-1 for 3 h at 0 degree C were mitogenic to splenic T cells, indicating that the former cells bind and present TSST-1 to T cells. TSST-1-binding activity was observed in C57BL/6 splenic B cells and L cells transfected with I-Ab genes, but not in splenic T cells and control L cells. Scatchard plot analysis showed that these B cells and transfectants bound TSST-1 with similar binding affinity. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that lysates of C57BL/6 spleen cells and the I-Ab-positive transfectants contain a single band which bound TSST-1 and comigrated with I-Ab heterodimers. TSST-1-binding activity observed clearly in C57BL/6. BALB/c, and C3H/HeN spleen cells and L cells transfected with I-Ab or I-Ak genes was not reduced by paraformaldehyde fixation. Binding of 125I-TSST-1 to the three spleen cells was markedly reduced by anti-I-A antibodies, but not by anti-I-E antibodies. C57BL/6, C3H/HeN, and (C3H/HeN x C57BL/6) F1 T cells were activated by TSST-1 to proliferate and produce IL-2 in the presence of FT6.2 cells, LT1-30-3 cells and either of them, respectively, but not in the presence of control L cells. These results indicate that I-A molecules function as the structures via that accessory cells directly bind TSST-1 on the cell surface and present a triggering signal of TSST-1 to T cells.     

环化腺苷酸对细菌生长的影响

用大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli AS 1.797)、北京棒状杆菌(Corynebacterium pekinense AS1.299)和巨大芽孢杆菌(Bacills megatertum AS 1.217)研究了细胞内环化腺苷酸(cAMP)浓度和外源cAMP对细胞生长的影响。结果表明,大肠杆菌在不同碳源中生长时,细胞的生长量随细胞内cAMF’浓度升高而降低。在以葡萄糖作碳源时,细胞内cAMP浓度低,外源cAMP。对生长有抑制作用,而cAMP的类似物5'-AMP则无抑制作用。在以乳糖、麦芽糖和甘油分别作碳源时,细胞内cAMP浓度高,外源cAMP对生长无影响。北京捧状杆菌以葡萄糖作碳源时,细胞生长也受外源cAMP的抑制,但cAMP的抑制作用不是专一的,它的作用可用类似物5’-AMP来代替。自身不合cAMP的巨大芽孢杆菌在不同碳原(包括葡萄糖)中生长时,生长不受外源cAMP抑制,也不受5’-Amt’的影响。因此认为,cAMP不是细菌生长的必需物,而是生长调节物,但这种调节物对巨大芽孢杆菌无效。     

人肝癌细胞表皮生长因子受体以及佛波酯对它的调度

Using radioligand binding assay, the presence of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptors in cells of two human liver cancer cell lines, BEL-7402 and SMMC-7721, was demonstrated. The ligand binding data were analyzed by a computer program. The dissociation constants (KD) of the ligand-receptor binding complex at equilibrium for 7402 and 7721 cells were 1.2 nM and 0.8 nM respectively, and their number of EGF receptors per cell were 6.2 x 10(4) and 2.5 x 10(4) respectively. After the treatment of cells with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), no change either in the affinity or in the number of EGF receptors was found in 7721 cells. However, in the case of 7402 cells, while the number of receptors, like 7721 cells, remained unchanged, the affinity of EGF receptors displayed a time dependent modulation after PMA treatment. It dropped within the first hour to a KD value of 3.0 nM and then gradually returned to the normal control value at 48 hours or even slightly higher than normal (0.95 nM) at 96 hours of treatment. The modulation or down-regulation of EGF receptors by PMA in 7402 cells was paralleled by the simultaneous inhibition of DNA synthesis in these cells as evidenced from their reduction of 3H-TdR uptake. It is not clear what is the basis for the differences found between 7402 cells and 7721 cells in their number of EGF receptors per cell and their responsiveness to PMA treatment. It might be related to their difference in autocrine secretion of alpha-transforming growth factors.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
