木瓜蛋白酶水解马鹿茸血制备免疫活性肽的研究

选用木瓜蛋白酶对天山马鹿茸血进行水解制备免疫活性肽,确定了最佳水解工艺条件,并测定了三种不同水解度水解物的抗氧化活性和免疫活性。水解度(DH)为6.65%时的水解物具有最高DPPH.清除率,DH12.2%时的水解物具有最高OH.清除率。免疫活性体外检测实验显示,DH12.2%时的水解物促进细胞增值率随着浓度的增大而增大,呈现出良好的线性关系(P<0.05)。结果还显示,OH.清除率与免疫活性之间存在相关性,r=0.87(P<0.05).     

Polymorphic microsatellites for the study of Aconitum napellus L. (Ranunculaceae), a rare species in France

Aconitum napellus is a perennial European Ranunculaceae that is currently decreasing in France. Six polymorphic microsatellite markers were characterized to study the polymorphism among individuals sampled from six populations in France. The total number of alleles per locus varied from two to four. Mean observed heterozygosities at each microsatellite locus ranged from 0.05 to 0.19. This set of microsatellites offers an efficient tool for more detailed investigations on population genetic structure of a rare species that can reproduce both sexually and by vegetative spread.     

Organotypic Culture of Human Skin to Study Melanocyte Migration

An ex vivo model system was developed to investigate melanocyte migration. Within this model system, melanocytes migrate among other epidermal cells in the epibolic outgrowth of skin explants. This process is initiated by loss of contact inhibition of epidermal cells at the rim of the explants and by locally produced chemotactic factors. Punch biopsies provided explants of reproducible diameter. Optimal culture conditions include medium consisting of Dulbecco's Minimal Essential Medium containing 10% inactivated normal human serum and placement of explants epidermal side up at the air-liquid interphase. Within 7 days, epidermal cells completely surround the explant. Approximately 3 days after the onset of keratinocyte migration, melanocytes distribute themselves within the newly formed epidermis. Throughout the 7-day culture period, melanocytes and keratinocytes show maintenance of subcellular morphology, and the dermo-epidermal junction remains intact. Melanocyte migration was quantified using immunoperoxidase staining in combination with light microscopy and computer-aided image analysis. Preliminary results using the model system to compare migration in control and nonlesional vitiligo skin indicate that no inherent migration defect is responsible for impaired repigmentation of vitiligo lesions. The organotypic culture model system allows for investigations on melanocytes within their environment of autologous epidermal and dermal components, closely resembling in vivo circumstances in human skin.

Devenir de la putrescine-1,4-14C chez Glycine max

Fate of Putrescine-1,4-¹⁴C in Glycine max Putrescine-1,4-¹⁴C was supplied to young decotylized Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv. Chippewa plants growing under aseptic conditions on a liquid medium with nitrogen supplied either as ammonium chloride or nitrates. Whatever the source of nitrogen the diamine was quickly transformed to γ-aminobutyric acid, succinic acid and malic acid; only a very minor part was utilized for the synthesis of polyamines. In the presence of ammonium chloride the putrescine catabolism may be slower than in the presence of nitrates. The results are explained by a weak isotopic dilution or by a diamine oxidase activity lower in “ammonium” plants than in “nitrate” plants; the two causes might co-exist. The possibility of a diamine compartmentation has to be considered.
