慢性缺氧对大鼠左右心室功能、心肌肌原纤维Ca~（2＋），Mg~（2＋）－ATP

模拟５０００ｍ中度缺氧时,大鼠右室功能显著加强,而左室功能加强不显著;左右心室肌原纤维Ｃａ２＋,Ｍｇ２＋－ＡＴＰ酶活性下降,肌球蛋白同功酶Ｖ２和Ｖ３百分含量增加,Ｖ１百分含量减少。８０００ｍ重度缺氧时,右室功能减弱,但无统计学意义,左室功能减弱有显著性;ＡＴＰ酶活性和同功酶的变化超过５０００ｍ组。此外,右室ＡＴＰ酶活性与ＰＡＰ呈反比且有显著性,左室ＡＴＰ酶活性与ＣＡＳＰ虽也呈反比但无显著性;右室同功酶Ｖ３百分含量与ＰＡＰ呈正比,左室同功酶Ｖ３百分含量与ＣＡＳＰ不呈比例。上述结果表明,因短期突发严重缺氧引起的心肌供氧不足对左心室心肌的直接损伤作用大于右心室心肌。     

Serum-free culture of rat keratinocytes

Summary Procedures for the serum-free culture of rat keratinocytes have been established. Basal cells prepared from epidermis of newborn rat were stored in liquid nitrogen and used for primary culture. Among the available media, MCDB 153, developed originally for human keratinocyte (HK) culture, was the best for the development of serum-free formulation. To grow rat keratinocytes, bovine serum albumin was arbitrarily substituted for the macromolecule supplements needed for HK culture, i.e. fetal bovine serum protein or bovine pituitary extract. Qualitative and quantitative adjustment of supplements was thereafter made to support rapid cell growth. Satisfactory cell growth was achieved in the optimized medium of MCDB 153 supplemented with growth factors and amino acids: insulin (10 μg/ml), hydrocortisone (0.1 μg/ml), epidermal growth factor (25 ng/ml), calcium chloride (0.2 mM), histidine (0.23 mM), isoleucine (0.05 mM), tryptophane (0.015 mM), threonine (1.25 mM), tyrosine (0.031 mM), alanine (4.08 mM), and albumin (2 mg/ml). This optimized culture system was superior to the original HK culture condition for rapid growth of rat keratinocytes. Under our condition, cells grew as a monolayer, becoming confluent, but without stratification, and were passaged 2 to 3 times without any changes in morphology. The serum-free formulation allows us to control more accurately the concentrations of biomolecules in the medium including lipids and hormones, and therefore will be suitable for the study focusing on lipid metabolism or hormonal regulation of rat keratinocytes.

Lipase modulator protein (LimL) of Pseudomonas sp. strain 109.

Plasmids containing a Pseudomonas sp. strain 109 extracellular lipase gene (lipL) lacking NH2-terminal sequence and a lipase modulator gene (limL) lacking the NH2-terminal hydrophobic region were constructed and expressed independently in Escherichia coli by using the T7 promoter expression vector system. Recombinant LipL (rLipL) was produced as inclusion bodies, whereas recombinant LimL (rLimL) was present as a soluble protein. During in vitro renaturation of the purified rLipL inclusion bodies after they had been dissolved in 8 M urea, addition of rLimL was essential to solubilize and modulate rLipL. The solubility and activity of rLipL were influenced by the rLimL/rLipL molar ratio; the highest level of solubility was obtained at an rLimL/rLipL ratio of 4:5, whereas the highest activity level was obtained at an rLimL/rLipL ratio of 4:1. After renaturation, rLipL and rLimL were coprecipitated with anti-rLipL antibody, indicating the formation of an rLipL-rLimL complex. Activity of the native lipase purified from Pseudomonas sp. strain 109 was also inhibited by rLimL. By Western blotting (immunoblotting) with anti-rLimL antibody, native LimL was detected in Pseudomonas cells solubilized by sarcosyl treatment. LimL was purified from Pseudomonas sp. strain 109, and the NH2-terminal amino acid sequence was determined to be NH2-Leu-Glu-Pro-Ser-Pro-Ala-Pro-. We propose that to prevent membrane degradation, LimL weakens lipase activity inside the cell, especially in the periplasm, in addition to modulating lipase folding.     

Limulus anti-LPS factor: An anticoagulant which inhibits the endotoxin-mediated activation of Limulus coagulation system

Exposure of $\text{Limulus}$ amebocytes to bacterial endotoxins (lipopolysaccharides, LPS) results in the activation of the coagulation system, which consists of several protein components. During the separation of these components, a potent anticoagulant, named tentatively anti-LPS factor, which inhibits the endotoxin-mediated coagulation reaction, was found in both amebocytes from the hemolymphs of $\text{Tachypleus}\text{tridentatus}$ and $\text{Limulus}\text{polyphemus}$. The principle purified partially from $\text{Tachypleus}$ amebocyte lysate had a molecular weight less than 10,000, as judged with the ordinary gelfiltration experiment. It inhibited specifically the activation of factor B, which has recently been characterized to be a coagulation factor highly sensitive to LPS, but it did not inhibit the activities of the active factor B and the active clotting enzyme separated from the lysate. The inhibitory activity of anti-LPS factor disappeared almost completely by the treatments with pronase-P and subtilisin, suggesting its polypeptide-like substance, but it resisted to a boiling treatment. A possible site of the anticoagulant action on the $\text{Limulus}$ coagulation system was discussed.

对腾冲热海眼镜泉中粉红色丝状菌藻席进行ARDRA指纹图谱分析,获得其细菌多样性的部分信息。直接提取菌藻席总DNA,以之为模板PCR扩增出细菌的16S rDNA,将其克隆、转化进入大肠杆菌,获得120个克隆子。用限制性内切酶(RsaⅠ、HhaⅠ、HapⅡ)筛选出了29个16S rDNA插入片段酶切带型差异明显的克隆,表明眼镜泉菌藻席细菌组成丰富。聚类分析显示这29个克隆聚为A、B两个大类,表明该菌藻席可能主要由两个遗传多样性丰富的分类群组成。
