血友病患者血清中淋巴腺病病毒/人T细胞Ⅲ型病毒抗体检测

对浙江省1982～1984年注射了美国产浓缩Ⅶ因子制剂的18例血友病患者,用酶联免疫吸附法(ELTSA)检测了血清中淋巴腺病病毒/人T细胞Ⅲ型病毒(LAV/HTLV-Ⅲ)抗体,发现4例阳性,并经免疫荧光试验和Western印迹法证实。2例应用了国产浓缩Ⅷ因子者抗体阴性。一例从美国来华旅游死于艾滋病者,LAV/HTLV-Ⅲ抗体阳性。本研究证明,LAV/HTLVⅢ病毒巳通过美国生产的Ⅷ因子制剂传入中国。     

溴氰菊酯对鼠脑蛋白质磷酸化作用的影响

以小鼠大脑碎片与[γ-~(32)P]ATP一起保温,观察到溴氰菊酯对蛋白1—3磷酸化的刺激作用和对4、5磷酸化的抑制作用,表明溴氰菊酯对大脑蛋白质磷酸化产生了影响。从鼠脑分离了C、D、S三个组分,分别进行的蛋白质磷酸化试验结果表明,C、D组分可能是重要的磷酸化部位。 蛋白1、2、3的磷酸化明显地受到溴氰菊酯的刺激,这三个蛋白质可能是“蛋白Ⅲb”的几种形式。溴氰菊酯对“蛋白Ⅲb”磷酸化的刺激,可能会影响神经末梢的神经激素释放,从而影响到与其相关的某些神经功能。

IL-4 blocks the up-regulation of IL-2 receptors induced by IL-2 in normal human B cells

A negative influence of IL-4 on the IL-2-induced B cell proliferation and differentiation has recently been reported. In this study, we have further investigated a role of IL-4 on human tonsillar B cell proliferation and IL-2R expression. IL-4 enhanced Staphylococcus aureus Cowan 1 strain (SAC)-induced B cell proliferation, reaching the peak on day 3. However, from day 4, IL-4 inhibited IL-2-induced proliferation. In the cross-linking study, IL-4 enhanced the density of 125I-IL-2-binding protein at low affinity binding condition (2 nM of 125I-IL-2) in SAC-activated B cells. However, IL-4 blocked the enhancement in the density of 125I-IL-2-binding proteins induced by IL-2, from day 3, in both high (50 pM of 125I-IL-2) and low affinity binding conditions, suggesting that IL-4 is able to block IL-2-induced IL-2R up-regulation. This was confirmed by a binding study: B cells that cultured for 3 days with SAC plus IL-2 expressed an average of 180 +/- 20 high affinity receptors/cell with a Kd of 12 pM and 5800 +/- 500 low affinity receptors/cell with a Kd of 980 pM. By coculturing with IL-4, high affinity receptors were almost undetectable and the expression of low affinity receptors was reduced by more than 80%. IL-4-mediated inhibition of IL-2-induced IL-2R expression does not seem to be due to the direct interaction between IL-4 and cell surface receptors, inasmuch as preincubation of cells with IL-4 for 60 min at 37 degrees C did not alter the binding of 125I-IL-2 to cells previously cultured for 3 days with SAC plus IL-2. These data suggest that IL-4 has a capacity to block the up-regulation of the high as well as low affinity IL-2R-induced by IL-2 in normal human B cells, and could provide a possible explanation for the decreased responsiveness of B cells to IL-2 in the presence of IL-4.     

Calcium binding to the subunit c ofE. coli ATP-synthase and possible functional implications in energy coupling

The 8-kDa subunit c of theE. coli F₀ ATP-synthase proton channel was tested for Ca⁺⁺ binding activity using a⁴⁵Ca⁺⁺ ligand blot assay after transferring the protein from SDS-PAGE gels onto polyvinyl difluoride membranes. The purified subunit c binds⁴⁵Ca⁺⁺ strongly with Ca⁺⁺ binding properties very similar to those of the 8-kDa CF₀ subunit III of choloroplast thylakoid membranes. The N-terminal f-Met carbonyl group seems necessary for Ca⁺⁺ binding capacity, shown by loss of Ca⁺⁺ binding following removal of the formyl group by mild acid treatment. The dicyclohexylcarbodiimide-reactive Asp-61 is not involved in the Ca⁺⁺ binding, shown by Ca⁺⁺ binding being retained in twoE. coli mutants, Asp61Asn and Asp61Gly. The Ca⁺⁺ binding is pH dependent in both theE. coli and thylakoid 8-kDa proteins, being absent at pH 5.0 and rising to a maximum near pH 9.0. A treatment predicted to increase the Ca⁺⁺ binding affinity to its F₀ binding site (chlorpromazine photoaffinity attachment) caused an inhibition of ATP formation driven by a base-to-acid pH jump in whole cells. Inhibition was not observed when the Ca⁺⁺ chelator EGTA was present with the cells during the chlorpromazine photoaffinity treatment. An apparent Ca⁺⁺ binding constant on the site responsible for the UV plus chlorpromazine effect of near 80–100 nM was obtained using an EGTA-Ca⁺⁺ buffer system to control free Ca⁺⁺ concentration during the UV plus chlorpromazine treatment. The data are consistent with the notion that Ca⁺⁺ bound to the periplasimic side of theE. coli F₀ proton channel can block H⁺ entry into the channel. A similar effect occurs in thylakoid membranes, but the Ca⁺⁺ binding site is on the lumen side of the thylakoid, where Ca⁺⁺ binding can modulate acid-base jump ATP formation. The Ca⁺⁺ binding to the F₀ and CF₀ complexes is consistent with a pH-dependent gating mechanism for control of H⁺ ion flux across the opening of the H⁺ channel.This work was supported in part by grants from the Department of Energy and the U.S. Department of Agriculture.On leave from the Institute of Soil Science and Photosynthesis, Russian Academy of Science, Pushchino, Russia.

多年生黑麦草草地生态系统中放牧强度对草地结构及组织转化的影响

研究了放牧强度对多年生黑麦草人工草地蘖的形态、密度、草地生产率及组织转化的影响。结果表明,重牧条件下蘖密度大于轻牧,而轻牧的单株蘖重大于重牧。重牧划地净生产率大于轻牧,主要是由于轻和手条件下,草地的高的生长率被更高的枯死率所抵消。春夏之交,采用灵活的管理措施,转换放牧强度可以提高草地的生产率。     

水稻伸长生长的数学模型

水稻地上部诸器官的伸长生长,可以分为3个阶段和两个过渡期．器官在前期的凹型曲线生长为加速生长（定为第1阶段）,中期的直线生长为等速生长（第2阶段）,后期的凸型曲线生长为减速生长（第3阶段）;每两个阶段临界处均存在特殊的生长过程,前面的定为第1过渡期,做变加速生长,后面的定为第2过渡期,做变减速生长.组成器官的各个细胞的伸长生长,也可以分为前期凹型曲线阶段、中期的直线阶段以及这两个阶段临界处的过渡期.运用类比原理推断;细胞在凹型曲线阶段,其原生质的膨压大于壁压,而且这两个压差始终维持稳定,这就使细胞做等加速生长;细胞经过过渡期的变加速生长过渡到直线生长阶段,在这个阶段中,膨压大小与壁压相等,这就使细胞以过渡期最末的生长速度做等速生长;最后壁压大于膨压,而且这两个相差压会阻止细胞的“惯性”生长直至停止生长,其结果产生减速生长．
