赛蚊一新种(大叶赛蚊)的记述(双翅目:蚊科)

1972年,我们在宁夏回族自治区的银川采获一种新的赛蚊。由于新种赛蚊的第九背叶特大,因崦取名为大叶赛蚊Culista(Culiseta)megaloba新种。 大叶赛蚊Culiseta(Culiseta)megaloba新种形态特征 雌蚊 大型深褐色蚊虫,翅长6.3—7.0(平均6.5)毫米。 头部:头顶和后头覆盖淡色窄鳞,后头并有黑色竖鳞;沿复眼后缘有淡色鳞环,头侧为平铺的淡色宽鳞。触角蒂节(梗节)褐色,内面有淡色鳞,轮毛黑色。触须约为喙的1/8长,暗色,有时第三节基部和末端有少数淡色鳞。喙暗色,比前足股节赂长。 胸部:前胸前背片是淡色窄鳞和褐色宗毛,杂有少数淡色舌形鳞;前胸后背片具淡色窄鳞。中胸盾片的体壁黑色,具淡色或淡金黄色细鳞形成的不很明显的纵条,包括央、     

胎盘型碱性磷酸酶的纯化及部分性质的研究

 <正> 胎盘型碱性磷酸酶(P-ALP)是碱性磷酸酶(EC3.1.3.1.ALP)的一种同工酶。P-ALP除出现于妊娠妇女血清外,一些学者还从恶性肿瘤患者血清中发现此酶,并证明它是一种特异性较强的肿瘤标志物。据此,建立P-ALP的简易纯化方法,制备纯度较高的酶制品是建立P-ALP灵敏的微量检测法的先决条件。本文报道以L-苯丙氨酸(L-phe)为配基,用氯代环氧丙烷活化Sepharose 4B的亲和层析法,从人胎盘纯化P-ALP,并对其部分性质进行了研究。     

三乙醇胺基强碱性聚苯乙烯树脂共价固定胰酶的研究

用多孔强碱型三乙醇胺基聚苯乙烯阴离子交换树脂做为载体,用CNBr与载体上的多羟基作用共价偶联了胰酶。红外光谱表明:其共价偶联反应机理与用CNBr活化多糖类载体并接酶的机理相类似。最适偶联条件研究表明:CNBr用量增多,酶蛋白载量增加。但比活下降。偶联pH为10时,固定化酶有适宜的载量和较高的比活。由于胰酶水解蛋白反应释放出H~+质子,这些质子在载体内积累,使微环境内H~+质子浓度增加,进而使得固定化胰酶的pH—活性曲线在pH9～11范围内未出现下降。在变温和60℃恒温下对固定化酶的热稳定性测试表明:固相酶的热稳定性比天然酶的热稳定性有所提高。

作者按照Steyaert(1949)和Sutton(1980)的分类观点,对1987—1988年从我国广西、江西、浙江等地采集的Pestalotiopsis属真菌进行了研究,确认了拟盘多毛孢属真菌的7个新组合种,即Pestalotiopsis carveri(Guba)comb nov.,Pestalotiopsis elasticae(Koord.)comb.nov.,Pestalotiopsis langloisii(Guba)comb.nov.,Pestalotiopsis oleandri(Guba)comb.nov.,Pestalotiopsis sinensis(shen)comb.nov.,Pestalotiopsis sydowiana(Bres.)comb.nov.和Pestalotiopsis zahlbruckneriana(Bres.)comb.nov.     

Proteases from human immunodeficiency virus and avian myeloblastosis virus show distinct specificities in hydrolysis of multidomain protein substrates.

The virally encoded proteases from human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and avian myeloblastosis virus (AMV) have been compared relative to their ability to hydrolyze a variant of the three-domain Pseudomonas exotoxin, PE66. This exotoxin derivative, missing domain I and referred to as LysPE40, is made up of a 13-kilodalton NH2-terminal translocation domain II connected by a segment of 40 amino acids to enzyme domain III of the toxin, a 23-kilodalton ADP-ribosyltransferase. HIV protease hydrolyzes two peptide bonds in LysPE40, a Leu-Leu bond in the interdomain region and a Leu-Ala bond in a nonstructured region three residues in from the NH2-terminus. Neither of these sites is cleaved by the AMV enzyme; hydrolysis occurs, instead, at an Asp-Val bond in another part of the interdomain segment and at a Leu-Thr bond in the NH2-terminal region of domain II. Synthetic peptides corresponding to these cleavage sites are hydrolyzed by the individual proteases with the same specificity displayed toward the protein substrate. Peptide substrates for one protease are neither substrates nor competitive inhibitors for the other. A potent inhibitor of HIV type 1 protease was more than 3 orders of magnitude less active toward the AMV enzyme. These results suggest that although the crystallographic models of Rous sarcoma virus protease (an enzyme nearly identical to the AMV enzyme) and HIV type 1 protease show a high degree of similarity, there exist structural differences between these retroviral proteases that are clearly reflected by their kinetic properties.     

Concerted generation of Ig isotype diversity in human fetal bone marrow

The human fetal bone marrow B cell compartment of 14- to 21-wk gestational age was examined phenotypically and with respect to Ig H chain commitment and diversity. A dramatic expansion of fetal marrow B cell pools at 16- to 18-wk gestational age characterizes a rapid and concerted chain of differentiation events. Transiently up to 1/4 of nucleated marrow cells are CD20+/CD21+ cells which begin to express surface Ig other than IgM. Limiting dilution analysis of EBV-infected marrow cells delineated a virtually exclusive commitment to IgM production until 15 wk and the absolute and relative number of these cells were small (approximately 5% of comparable adult values). In parallel to the rapid increase in total B cell pools size, cells committed and able to secrete any of the five Ig isotypes are generated by 16-wk gestational age and by 18 wk the frequencies of these cells rapidly reach levels typical for adult peripheral tissue such as blood or lymph node. Fetal L chain diversity always anticipated that observed in adult serum. In addition to rising pool sizes and diverse IgH expression, EBV transformability is a major variable during this period of B cell development with up to 2/3 of B lineage cells transformable, about half of which are pre-B cells. By 21-wk gestational age transformable pre-B cells have disappeared and (as in adult tissue) approximately 10 to 20% of CD20+ cells are transformable. The rapid, concerted expression of full H chain diversity during a narrow period in fetal development is unique to marrow and implies a lymphopoietic process in a privileged site rather than an immunologic differentiation event. During this event, the relative proportions between the different IgH classes expressed, resembled that found in adult tissue, perhaps suggesting that B cell inherent programming rather than only antigenic forces determine heavy chain choice. The staggered expression, early in postnatal life, of IgH regions 3' of the C mu locus may reflect regulatory functions rather than inherent immaturity of the B lineage.     

酪氨酸对人离体滋养层细胞孕酮与hCG分泌的影响

本文观察三种剂量(2×10~(-5)mol/L,2×10~(-4)mol/L和2×10~(-3)mol/L)的酪氮酸对离体培养的滋养层细胞孕酮及hCG分泌的影响,并对其抑制效应的机理作了初步探讨。实验结果表明,三种剂量的酪氨酸均可抑制滋养层细胞孕酮分泌(P<0.01),但是,在孕酮分泌受酪氨酸抑制的同时,未见对hCG分泌发生影响(P>0.05),进一步观察了酪氨酸对滋养层细胞3β-羟甾脱氢酶活性的影响,结果表明,酪氨酸能显著抑制3β-羟甾脱氢酶活性,提示酪氨酸对滋养层细胞孕酮生成的抑制作用与抑制3β-羟甾脱氢酶活性有关。     

组胺H2受体拮抗剂对骨髓造血重建的影响

用组胺H_2受体拮抗剂(甲氰咪胍或呋喃硝胺)处理正常和亚致死量γ-射线照射小鼠,探讨正常体内造血和再生骨髓中造血重建与组胺受体的关系。发现非毒性剂量的甲氰咪胍对正常小鼠骨髓多能造血干细胞(CFU-s)无抑制作用,但可抑制小鼠体内粒单系祖细胞(CFU-GM)的生长和亚致死量照射后CFU-s产率的恢复。组胺可能与骨髓的再生有关,组胺H_2受体拮抗剂可抑制骨髓的造血重建。     

氨甲酰胆碱和Impromidine对CFU—S细胞周期的影响

正常情况下处于S期的CFU-S比例低于10％。氨甲酰胆碱(Cach 10~(-13)—10~(-9)mol/L)和Impromidine(Impro 10~(-9)—10~(-4)mol/L)在体外与小鼠骨髓细胞短时培育后,增加了CFU-S对细胞毒剂羟基脲的敏感性。反应最大时,9d和13dCFU-S的减少率分别是32.8和60.6％(Cach)以及38.4和49.5％(Impro)。这种效应可分别被胆碱能N受体阻断剂筒箭毒(10~(-6)mol/L)和组胺H_2受体阻断剂甲氰咪呱(10~(-6)mol/L)所阻断,表明9d和13d CFU-S表面胆碱能N受体和组胺H_2受体的密度或活性存在差别,再次证实了CFU-S是一个不均一的细胞群。
