Further investigation on nuclear transplantation in different orders of teleost: the combination of the nucleus of Tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica) and the cytoplasm of Loach (Paramisgurnus dabryanus).

The nucleus of a blastula cell from Tilapia (Oreochromis nilotica, family Cichlidae, order Perciformes) was transplanted into an enucleated egg of Loach (Paramisgurnus dabryanus, family Cobitidae, order Cypriniformes). From among 3747 nucleo-cytoplasmic hybrid (NCH) eggs two NCH larval fish (0.05%) were obtained; one died on the 6th day and the other died on the 12th day after the operation. Morphological examinations showed that both NCH larval fish had developed normally with an opened mouth except they could not take food after complete utilization of their egg yolk on the 5th day of development. The possible mechanisms for obtaining such inter-order NCH larval fish are discussed. This is the first report indicating that inter-order NCH larval fish can be obtained in spite of their evolutionary divergence.     

A method for studies of an El Tor-associated antigen of Vibrio cholerae O1

A method for studying the biotype El Tor associated mannose-sensitive haemagglutinin (MSHA) of V. cholerae O1 has been developed. By using crude MSHA adsorbed to chicken erythrocytes as solid phase antigen in an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), antisera against V. cholerae of the El Tor biotype reacted in high titre with the MSHA-coated cells, whereas antisera against vibrios of the classical biotype did not bind significantly, i.e. in higher titre than pre-immune sera. The binding of anti-MSHA serum, or a monoclonal antibody against MSHA, to the MSHA-coated erythrocytes could be efficiently inhibited by crude MSHA as well as by El Tor vibrios whereas neither V. cholerae lipopolysaccharide nor different strains of classical vibrios had any inhibitory effect. These results support the existence of an El Tor-associated immunogen. They also suggest a possibility of determining antibodies against different haemagglutinins in ELISA without having access to purified antigens.     

Increased 5-Hydroxytryptamine and Norepinephrine Release from Rat Brain Slices by the Red Sea Flatfish

The effect of the Red Sea flatfish toxin pardaxin was examined on K+-evoked and on basal release of either [3H]norepinephrine or [3H]5-hydroxytryptamine from preloaded rat cortical slices. The K+-induced release of the neurotransmitters was stimulated in a dose-related manner at concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 4 micrograms/ml. Basal release of the two transmitters was elevated to a lesser extent. Although the stimulation of evoked release was approximately equivalent for the two neurotransmitters, the response to 5-hydroxytryptamine was reversible whereas that of norepinephrine was not washed by 20 min of superfusion. The mechanisms involved in producing these actions of pardaxin are not known; however, they may be mediated by changes in electrolyte fluxes across the neuronal membranes.     

伸展素在黄瓜胞壁中的转化及其与羟脯氨酸和异联酪氨酸的关系

用~(14)C-Pro和~3H_2-Tyr离体暗培养黄瓜子叶,发现细胞质、SECW和RCW中的Hyp/Pro和Idt/Tyr都随时间呈线性增加。这两种比值后两者高于前者,而两种比值增加速度之比在胞质部分最大、RCW中最小。表明在胞质和胞壁中都有Pro羟化和Tyr异联化过程,但羟化作用主要发生在胞质中,异联化主要在RCW中。 理化处理(高渗溶液和CHM)和放射性示踪证明胞质中存在HRGP库;它被分泌到胞壁后,先以离子键与壁结合,后转变为共价键与壁结合的伸展素。     

Sister chromatid differential staining and NOR activity of BrdU-resistant sublines

Summary Two 30 g/ml BrdU-resistant sublines and two 60 g/ml BrdU-resistant sublines are induced from a Chinese hamster cell line Wg3h (HGPRT^–) by one-step and two-step selections, respectively. By inoculating the cells into BrdU-free medium or by adding more BrdU into the culture medium for 26–27 h, it was found that the two BrdU-resistant sublines analysed have very clear sister chromatid differential (SCD) staining patterns. This indicates that some of the nuclear DNA of the BrdU-resistant cells incorporate with BrdU to reach a kinetic balance. Frequencies of sister chromatid exchange (SCE) of the resistant cells are twice to four times as high as those of the Wg3h cells, depending on which BrdU-resistant subline is analysed. The SCE frequencies of the resistant cells also increase with the BrdU concentration in the medium. Analysis of silver-stained nucleolar organizer regions (NORs) indicates that the NOR activity of three out of the four BrdU-resistant sublines is significantly suppressed, i.e., averages of the Ag-NOR number and number of the chromosomes bearing Ag-NORs per cell decrease significantly. The degree of suppression for different BrdU-resistant sublines may be quite different. The suppressed NOR activity of the resistant cells can gradually be restored when the cells are inoculated into BrdU-free medium, but the recovery speed is far lower than that of the Wg3h cells. The suppression of the NOR activity of the BrdU-resistant sublines should be due to BrdU toxicity.     

猕猴(Macaca mulatta)主动脉弓的分支类型

Are Chaoborus larvae more abundant in acidified than in non-acidified lakes in Central Canada?

Eriksson et al (1980) hypothesized that the abundance of certain macroinvertebrate predators, such as larvae of the phantom midge Chaoborus , should increase in acidified lakes because of the elimination of fish. To examine the influence of pH and presence of fish on Chaoborus abundance, we surveyed Chaoborus populations in 33 lakes in Ontario, Canada which ranged in pH from 4.5 to 7.4. Chaoborus larvae were not more abundant in the acidified lakes that were devoid of fish than in the remaining lakes. Therefore, we concluded that pH and presence of fish are not prime determinants of total Chaoborus abundance in Canadian Shield lakes. We hypothesized that significant increases in Chaoborus abundance should only be anticipated when fish populations are eliminated by acidification of relatively nutrient rich lakes.
