发酵牛粪对黄粉虫幼虫生长发育的影响

为寻找大型养殖场牛粪资源化与产业化利用途径,本文探讨了杂食性黄粉虫转化与利用牛粪的可行性.将牛粪和黄粉虫常规饲料(65％麦麸、30％玉米面、5％豆粕)按梯度比例混合后,用有益微生物菌群(EM)发酵,筛选出FD1、FD2(牛粪含量分别为60％、80％)两组发酵饲料作为处理,以常规饲料为对照(CK)进行黄粉虫幼虫饲养试验,研究不同发酵料对黄粉虫幼虫生长曲线、死亡率、化蛹率、抗氧化系统等的影响,评价黄粉虫幼虫对发酵牛粪饲料的适应性.结果表明:与CK相比,虽然FD1处理黄粉虫幼虫生长周期延长了20 d,死亡率有所上升,但黄粉虫幼虫单体取食总量增加49％ (P＜0.01),末龄幼虫单体质量增加28％(P＜0.01),粗脂肪含量提高26％(P＜0.05),不饱和与饱和脂肪酸含量的比值比CK高32％(P＜0.05),抗氧化酶活性显著增强,对发酵饲料表现出良好的适应性;而FD2处理各项指标均比CK差,表现出较低的适应性.表明在FD1处理条件下,可利用黄粉虫3龄幼虫对牛粪进行资源化利用,具有较好的应用前景.

慢性丙型肝炎患者中丙型肝炎病毒准种变异研究进展

丙型肝炎病毒（HCV）具有较高的变异性,通常以准种的形式分布在感染者的体内,病毒容易逃离机体的免疫监控,因而无法被有效地清除,导致机体很难控制其感染的发展,故易转变成慢性肝炎。HCV准种变异在宿主体内的持续存在对病毒感染的控制、抗病毒药物和疫苗的发展都是一个巨大的挑战。,我们重点阐述近年来关于HCV准种变异及其与慢性丙型肝炎患者的机体免疫、疾病进展、治疗效果之间关系的研究进展。     

Population structure of African buffalo inferred from mtDNA sequences and microsatellite loci: high variation but low differentiation

The African buffalo ( Syncerus caffer ) is widespread throughout sub-Saharan Africa and is found in most major vegetation types, wherever permanent sources of water are available, making it physically able to disperse through a wide range of habitats. Despite this, the buffalo has been assumed to be strongly philopatric and to form large aggregations that remain within separate home ranges with little interchange between units, but the level of differentiation within the species is unknown. Genetic differences between populations were assessed using mitochondrial DNA (control region) sequence data and analysis of variation at six microsatellite loci among 11 localities in eastern and southern Africa. High levels of genetic variability were found, suggesting that reported severe population bottlenecks due to outbreak of rinderpest during the last century did not strongly reduce the genetic variability within the species. The high level of genetic variation within the species was found to be evenly distributed among populations and only at the continental level were we able to consistently detect significant differentiation, contrasting with the assumed philopatric behaviour of the buffalo. Results of mtDNA and microsatellite data were found to be congruent, disagreeing with the alleged male-biased dispersal. We propose that the observed pattern of the distribution of genetic variation between buffalo populations at the regional level can be caused by fragmentation of a previous panmictic population due to human activity, and at the continental level, reflects an effect of geographical distance between populations.     

阿帕替尼对人肝癌细胞增殖及凋亡的作用机制研究

目的:探讨阿帕替尼抑制肝癌细胞增殖促进凋亡的作用机制。方法:选取肝癌细胞系SNU739、HepG2,以CCK-8细胞增殖实验、平板克隆实验测定阿帕替尼对肝癌细胞增殖及克隆形成能力的影响;流式细胞术检测阿帕替尼对肝癌细胞凋亡的影响;蛋白免疫印迹法检测阿帕替尼影响肝癌细胞凋亡相关蛋白Bax、Bcl-2及Caspase3的表达情况。结果:与对照组相比,阿帕替尼可显著抑制肝癌细胞增殖(P0.05)。平板克隆实验提示与对照组相比,10μM和20μM阿帕替尼组肝癌细胞克隆数明显减少(P0.05)。流式细胞术结果提示10μM和20μM阿帕替尼处理组细胞凋亡率明显增加(P0.05)。蛋白免疫印迹法结果显示经阿帕替尼处理的肝癌细胞,促凋亡蛋白Bax及Caspase3的活性片段Cleaved-caspase3表达水平显著上调,抗凋亡蛋白Bcl-2显著下调(P0.01)。结论:阿帕替尼通过调节肝癌细胞凋亡相关蛋白从而抑制肝癌细胞增殖、促进其凋亡。     

The occurrence and ecological importance of dissolved ATP in fresh water

SUMMARY. Dissolved ATP, defined as ATP which passes through 0.2 μm filters, was found in fresh water. During the spring diatom bloom in two eutrophic Danish lakes, concentrations of dissolved ATP varied between 0.1 and 3.8 μgl⁻¹, constituting 14–76% of the total ATP (particulate plus dissolved ATP). The kinetics of the light emission obtained from mixing firefly enzyme with dissolved ATP demonstrated that the major proportion of the dissolved ATP was in fact ATP. Despite some variations, the seasonal changes in dissolved ATP paralleled the changes in the increasing phytoplankton population during the rise of the diatom blooms. The dissolved ATP increased after the diatom peak, indicating that release of ATP from the phytoplankton due to mortality may be a major source of dissolved ATP.
Consumption of dissolved ATP was evaluated in uptake experiments using ³H-ATP. Rates of uptake of ³H-ATP by micro-organisms (diameter 0.2–0.6 μm) proved to be close to the rates for ³H-D-glucose uptake. The variations in ³H-ATP uptake during the diatom blooms showed non-systematic changes and ranged between 1.0 and 15.8% h⁻¹ (mean = 4.9% h⁻¹) of the quantity added. Turnover rates for dissolved ATP varied between 12 and 730 ng l⁻¹ h⁻¹ (mean = 175 ng l⁻¹). These rather high rates of turnover suggest that dissolved ATP is an important compound in the metabolism of freshwater bacteria.     

Genetic polymorphism of mitochondrial DNA HVS-I and HVS-Ⅱ of Chinese Tu ethnic minority group

We analyzed the two hypervariable segments HVS-Ⅰ and HVS-Ⅱ of 108 Chinese Tu ethnic minority group samples for forensic and population genetics purposes.Comparing with Anderson sequence,79 polymorphic loci in HVS-Ⅰ and 40 in HVS-Ⅱ were found in Chi-nese Tu ethnic minority group mtDNA sequences,and 90 and 64 haplotypes were then defined.Haplotype diversity and the mean pair-wise differences were 0.9903:±0.0013 and 5.7785 in HVS-Ⅰ,and 0.9777±0.0013 and 3.5819 in HVS-Ⅱ,respectively.By analyzing the hypervariable domain from nucleotide 1,6180 to 1,6193 in HVS-Ⅰ,we defined some new types of sequence variations.We also compared the relationship between Tu population and other populations using mtDNA HVS-Ⅰ sequences.According to Rst genetic distances,the phylogenetic tree showed that the Tu population,the Xi'an Han population,the Chinese Korean,and the Mongol ethnic group were in a clade.This indicated a close genetic relationship between them.There were far relations between the Tu population and other Chinese southern Han populations,Siberian,European,African,and other foreign populations.The results suggest that Tu population has a multi-origin and has also merged with other local populations.

土壤水分对富士苹果果实外观品质的影响

为探究不同果园土壤水分处理对富士苹果果实品质的影响,并重点探究外观品质的差异,筛选出最适宜生产中采用的控水方法,以‘烟富3号’富士苹果品种作为材料,按照土壤相对含水量设置两组水分处理,一组为LT1(55%~65%)、LT2(65%~75%)和LT3(75%~85%),另一组为LT4(前期55%~65%,后期45%~55%)、LT5(前期65%~75%,后期55%~65%)和LT6(前期75%~85%,后期65%~75%),以生理落果为节点,划分处理前期和后期,以普通果园水分管理作为对照处理(LCK),分别测定土壤含水量以及相应果实可溶性固形物含量,计算果实裂纹指数、着色指数和光洁指数,并用扫描电镜观测果皮超微结构。结果表明:(1)LT1、LT4、LT5处理的果实可溶性固形物含量比LCK分别显著提高13.4%、15.2%、13.1%。(2)与LCK相比,LT2、LT3、LT5、LT6处理果实的裂纹指数分别降低了49.8%、19.8%、49.8%、30.1%,LT1、LT2、LT5处理果实的着色指数分别提高了3.4%、14.0%、17.4%,LT1~LT6处理果实的光洁指数分别提高了50.4%、150.4%、125.6%、45.2%、175.9%、100.8%。(3)果皮显微结构观察表明,控制处理前、后期土壤水分不稳定会导致果皮角质层的严重开裂,LT5处理避免了这一情况的发生,而健康果实的果皮角质层厚度大于裂果的果皮。(4)健康果实的水势(-1.22 MPa)明显高于裂果的水势(-1.44 MPa),且果实水势与裂纹发生呈负相关关系。研究认为,适当的土壤水分胁迫(65%~75%)不影响果实食用品质,同时可显著降低果实表面裂纹的发生率,提高果面光洁度;在果实发育后期,适当的轻度控水处理会促进果实的糖积累并减少裂纹的产生;果实裂纹的发生与果皮角质层厚度和果实水势相关,厚度越大、水势越高,裂纹发生越少。土壤相对含水量LT2与LT5处理的苹果果实兼具良好的食用品质与外观品质。
