克山病是一种“心肌线粒体病(Mitochondrial Cardiomyopathy)”

亚急克病人心肌线粒体内膜电子传递链的琥珀酸氧化酶系,琥珀酸脱氢酶和细胞色素氧化酶活性明显低于对照。H~ -ATP酶的活性及其对寡霉素的敏感性都明显下降。ATP能量化后线粒体膜电位的变化也比对照明显降低。膜脂流动性低于对照。亚急克病人心肌线粒体内观察到较多的电子致密无定形物质,经电镜X射线微区等方法分析,认为这些物质不是Ca_3(PO_4)_2,而可能是一种蛋白质凝聚物。此外,心肌线粒体的硒含量远低于对照,而Ca含量明显高于对照。上述结果都反映亚急克病人心肌线粒体明显损伤。根据克山病患者心肌细胞线粒体结构与功能方面呈现的如此广泛与明显的异常,可将克山病称为“心肌线粒体病(Mitochondrial Cardiomyopathy)”。     

Isolation and reconstitution of the RNA replicase of the cytoplasmic polyhedrosis virus of silkworm,Bombyx mori

Summary After irradiation of the virus particles of CPV, the RNA replicase associated with the virion was isolated in the form of a genome-replicase complex with DEAE-Sephadex A-25 chromatography. This complex was then treated with Triton X-100 and purified by phosphocellulose column chromatography. The RNA replicase reconstituted with the doublestranded RNA of CPV showed both the enzyme activity of RNA polymerase and methyltransferase. The single-stranded RNA could not serve as the template for the RNA replicase. The role of the RNA replicase of CPV is discussed.     

Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration from immature inflorescence segments of Coix lacryma-jobi

Callus was obtained from segments of immature inflorescence of Coix lacryma-jobi cultured on N6 medium containing 1–2 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 3–5% sucrose. Plantlets were regenerated when embryogenic calluses were transferred onto MS medium with 0.5 mg/l kinetin and 0.01 mg/l naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). Regenerated plants had the diploid chromosome number (2n=20).

Clastogen-induced chromosomal breakage as a marker for first trimester prenatal diagnosis of Fanconi anemia

Summary Using cultured trophoblast cells obtained by chorionic villus biopsy, we diagnosed Fanconi anemia (FA) in two pregnancies and excluded it in eight pregnancies at risk for the syndrome. Baseline chromosomal breakage and breakage induced by diepoxybutane (DEB) were analyzed. Increased breakage was used as a marker for the syndrome. Our results were unambiguous and provide a reliable method for prenatal detection of FA in the first trimester of pregnancy.

Serum Albumin Washing Specifically Enhances Arachidonate Incorporation into Synaptosomal Phosphatidylinositols

Arachidonate incorporation into synaptosomal phospholipids was shown to be affected by factors including the procedure for preparation of the membrane fractions and preincubation of synaptosomes prior to assay of incorporation of arachidonate into both phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylinositol (PI). However, the inhibition toward incorporation into PIs, but not PCs, was fully reversed when the membranes were washed with bovine serum albumin. A twofold increase in arachidonate incorporation into PIs was also observed when freshly prepared synaptosomes were washed with serum albumin immediately before assay of incorporation activity. The inhibitory action is thought to be due to an increase in polyunsaturated fatty acids and/or their oxidation products which may then elicit a special effect on the acyltransferase responsible for transferring arachidonate into phosphatidylinositols. The differences in fatty acid uptake and response to serum albumin also suggest the presence of different acyltransferase for acyl transfer to PIs and PCs.     

Detergent Effects on the Phosphatidylinositol-Specific Phospholipase C in Rat Brain Synaptosomes

In the presence of Ca2+ (2.5 mM) and using [14C]arachidonoyl phosphatidylinositol (PI) membrane as substrate, phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) (EC 3.1.4.10) in rat brain synaptosomes was activated by deoxycholate but not taurocholate. Calcium stimulated enzymic hydrolysis by both detergents, but the stimulatory effect of taurocholate was less than that of deoxycholate. Peak stimulation for deoxycholate was observed at 1 mg/ml, whereas that for taurocholate was 4 mg/ml. When 1 mM EDTA was added to the taurocholate (4 mg/ml) and Ca2+ (3.5 mM) system, synaptosomal PI-PLC activity was greatly stimulated, to almost the same level as the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system. This system required the presence of all three factors, and EGTA could not effectively replace EDTA in the stimulatory action. The detergent-induced hydrolysis of synaptosomal PI by the deoxycholate + Ca2+ and the taurocholate + Ca2+ + EDTA systems was strongly inhibited by divalent metal ions such as Zn2+, Cu2+, Pb2+, and Fe2+, whereas Mg2+ and Ca2+ were ineffective. Nevertheless, only the deoxycholate + Ca2+ system was responsive to enzyme inhibition by membrane-perturbing agents such as lysophospholipids and free fatty acids. The specific requirement for EDTA in the taurocholate system may be due to the release of a pool of inhibitory divalent metal ions from the membranes.
