Structural and Stereochemical Studies of Hydroxyanthraquinone Derivatives from the Endophytic Fungus Coniothyrium sp

Four known hydroxyanthraquinones ( 1–4 ) together with four new derivatives having a tetralone moiety, namely coniothyrinones A–D ( 5–8 ), were isolated from the culture of Coniothyrium sp., an endophytic fungus isolated from Salsola oppostifolia from Gomera in the Canary Islands. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated by detailed spectroscopic analysis and comparison with reported data. The absolute configurations of coniothyrinones A ( 5 ), B ( 6 ), and D ( 8 ) were determined by TDDFT calculations of CD spectra, allowing the determination of the absolute configuration of coniothyrinone C ( 7 ) as well. Coniothyrinones A ( 5 ), B ( 6 ), and D ( 8 ) could be used as ECD reference compounds in the determination of absolute configuration for related tetralone derivatives. This is the first report of anthraquinones and derivatives from an isolate of the genus Coniothyrium sp. These compounds showed inhibitory effects against the fungus Microbotryum violaceum, the alga Chlorella fusca, and the bacteria Escherichia coli and Bacillus megaterium.

高粱舟蛾发生规律与防治研究

高粱舟蛾Dinaracombusta (Walker)以幼虫取食玉米、高粱、甘蔗叶片。近年来 ,河北省正定、磁县、滦城等地危害夏玉米成灾。该虫在河北中南部每年发生 1代 ,以蛹在土中越冬 ,6月底至 7月上旬夏玉米田开始见卵 ,7月中下至 8月上旬为幼虫发生危害盛期。虫口密度与气象、天敌及食物因素有关。幼虫抗药性低 ,在夏玉米田采用高效氯氰菊酯乳油等低龄期防治 ,效果均在 90 %以上     

Complete genome sequence of a bovine viral diarrhea virus 2 from commercial fetal bovine serum

We isolated a bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) from commercial fetal bovine serum and designated it HLJ-10. The complete genome is 12,284 nucleotides (nt); the open reading frame is 11,694 nt, coding 3,898 amino acids. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that this strain belongs to BVDV group 2.     

人参总皂苷对人红白血病细胞株（K562）中STAT5表达的影响

旨在探讨人参总皂苷对K562细胞STAT5表达的影响.MTT法显示TSPG对K562细胞增殖抑制程度呈剂量与时间依赖性增加,且呈正相关关系.流式细胞术表明TSPG能阻止K562细胞从G0/G1期向S、G2/M期移行.激光共聚焦显微镜观察可见,TSPG 200 mg/L作用K562细胞24 h,胞浆中的STAT5荧光强度增加,而胞核内STAT5荧光强度减弱.Western blotting结果显示,TSPG作用K562细胞6 、24 、48 h,胞核中STAT5表达较对照组减少,TSPG作用72 h胞核蛋白中STAT5表达增加;TSPG作用K562细胞6 、12、24、48、72 h,胞浆内STAT5表达增加.TSPG能减少K562胞核中STAT5的表达,这可能是TSPG抑制K562细胞增殖的作用机制之一.     

Superior neovascularization and muscle regeneration in ischemic skeletal muscles following VEGF gene transfer by rAAV1 pseudotyped vectors

Recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 2 (rAAV2) vector has been widely employed for gene therapy. Recent progress suggests that the new serotypes of AAV showed a better performance than did AAV2 in normal tissues. Here, we evaluate the potential role of human vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene transfer using rAAV vector pseudotyped with serotype 1 capsid proteins (rAAV1) in the treatment of muscle ischemia. In ischemic skeletal muscles, the rAAV1-LacZ vector allowed higher level, broader distribution, and long-lasting gene expression compared with the rAAV2-LacZ vector. Muscle VEGF165 production following the rAAV1-VEGF165 vector injection was 5-10 times higher than that following the rAAV2-VEGF165 vector injection. VEGF165 production mediated by the rAAV1-VEGF165 vector stimulated a large set of neovascularization with relatively mature vascular structures and enhanced muscle regeneration in the ischemic skeletal muscles. Thus, the rAAV1-VEGF165 vector mediated gene transfer may be a therapeutic approach to peripheral vascular diseases.     

中心体蛋白Cenexin在大鼠精子发生过程中的表达特征

中心体蛋白Cenexin是成熟中心粒的唯一标志分子。为阐明中心粒在大鼠精子发生中的成熟以及功能,我们首先通过RT－PCR技术从大鼠睾丸组织中扩增出了Cenexin cDNA片段,原核表达重组蛋白后,用其免疫小鼠制备了高滴度的抗Cenexin的多克隆抗体,然后利用免疫荧光染色、Western Blot和半定量RT－PCR方法,研究了大鼠精子发生过程中Cenexin蛋白和基因的表达特征。结果显示Cenexin mRNA水平在精原细胞和精母细胞中较高,随后表达水平下降,而蛋白质分子在精原细胞到精子细胞中都定位于细胞的一个中心粒上,表示有成熟中心粒的存在,在长形精子细胞中该蛋白位于鞭毛的基体部。附睾的绝大多数成熟精子中Cenexin免疫染色消失。中心体蛋白Cenexin在精子变态期的表达变化可能与精子鞭毛形成的起始有关。     

无量山种子植物区系科属的两种不同排序

地处滇中南的景东无量山地区迄今计种了植物２０７科,１０２６属,２５４０种,按照传统的种的绝对数目进行科属的排序可以得到一个较为完整的区系组成,但无法反映这些属在该地区系建成中的相对重要性,本文提出了区系存在度,即某一科（属）在该地再现的次级分类群与它的所有次级分类的比值,按之再去进行排列,可得到一个迥然有异的排序,按绝对种数排序的大科在第二种排序中很少进入,相反,一些东亚特有或有邻近地区共有的科的
