光周期对粘虫生殖与飞翔影响的初步研究

在室内恒温条件下,测定了粘虫在短光照（ＬＤ８：１６）、中等光照（ＬＤ１２：１２）、长光照（ＬＤ１６：８）、光照逐日由长变短（ＬＤ１６：８－１２：１２）和逐日由为长（ＬＤ８：１６－１２：１２）等不同光周期条件下的发育进度,生殖力和飞翔能力。结果表明,光照由长变短使幼虫发育进度比其它处理平均缩短１ｄ以上,短光照、长变知道工换短、中等光照等条件下的成虫产卵前期均比长光照。短换长和短变和等处理蛾显著延长,     

Utilization of chemokine receptors, orphan receptors, and herpesvirus-encoded receptors by diverse human and simian immunodeficiency viruses.

Human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) requires both CD4 and a coreceptor to infect cells. Macrophage-tropic (M-tropic) HIV-1 strains utilize the chemokine receptor CCR5 in conjunction with CD4 to infect cells, while T-cell-tropic (T-tropic) strains generally utilize CXCR4 as a coreceptor. Some viruses can use both CCR5 and CXCR4 for virus entry (i.e., are dual-tropic), while other chemokine receptors can be used by a subset of virus strains. Due to the genetic diversity of HIV-1, HIV-2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV) and the potential for chemokine receptors other than CCR5 or CXCR4 to influence viral pathogenesis, we tested a panel of 28 HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV envelope (Env) proteins for the ability to utilize chemokine receptors, orphan receptors, and herpesvirus-encoded chemokine receptor homologs by membrane fusion and virus infection assays. While all Env proteins used either CCR5 or CXCR4 or both, several also used CCR3. Use of CCR3 was strongly dependent on its surface expression levels, with a larger number of viral Env proteins being able to utilize this coreceptor at the higher levels of surface expression. ChemR1, an orphan receptor recently shown to bind the CC chemokine I309 (and therefore renamed CCR8), was expressed in monocyte and lymphocyte cell populations and functioned as a coreceptor for diverse HIV-1, HIV-2, and SIV Env proteins. Use of ChemR1/CCR8 by SIV strains was dependent in part on V3 loop sequences. The orphan receptor V28 supported Env-mediated cell-cell fusion by four T- or dual-tropic HIV-1 and HIV-2 strains. Three additional orphan receptors failed to function for any of the 28 Env proteins tested. Likewise, five of six seven-transmembrane-domain receptors encoded by herpesviruses did not support Env-mediated membrane fusion. However, the chemokine receptor US28, encoded by cytomegalovirus, did support inefficient infection by two HIV-1 strains. These findings indicate that additional chemokine receptors can function as HIV and SIV coreceptors and that surface expression levels can strongly influence coreceptor use.     

Hepatitis C virus envelope proteins bind lactoferrin.

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) has two envelope proteins, E1 and E2, which form a heterooligomer. During dissection of interacting regions of HCV E1 and E2, we found the presence of an interfering compound or compounds in skim milk. Here we report that human as well as bovine lactoferrin, a multifunctional immunomodulator, binds two HCV envelope proteins. As determined by far-Western blotting, the bacterially expressed E1 and E2 could bind lactoferrin in human milk directly separated or immunopurified and separated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The bindings of lactoferrin and HCV envelope proteins in vitro were confirmed by another method, the pull-down assay, with immunoprecipitated lactoferrin-bound protein A resin. By the same assay, mammal-expressed recombinant E1 and E2 were also demonstrated to bind human lactoferrin efficiently in vitro. Direct interaction between E2 and lactoferrin was proved in vivo, since anti-human lactoferrin antibody efficiently coimmunoprecipitated with secreted and intracellular forms of the E2 protein, but not glutathione S-transferase (GST), from lysates of HepG2 cells transiently cotransfected with the expression plasmids of human lactoferrin and gE2t-GST (the N-terminal two-thirds of E2 fused to GST) or GST. The N-terminal loop of lactoferrin, the region important for the antibacterial activity, has only a little role in the binding ability to HCV E2 but affected the secretion or stability of lactoferrin. Taken together, these results indicate the specific interaction between lactoferrin and HCV envelope proteins in vivo and in vitro.     

籼稻的抗冷性与亲本的关系

四个籼稻（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ．）品种幼苗经１℃黑暗或光照２５０ μｍ ｏｌ·ｍ － ２·ｓ－ １处理后,抗冷的“桂山矮选３”比不抗冷的“青华６ 号”幼苗存活率高,其子代是以“桂山矮选３”为母本的比“青华６ 号”为母本的存活率较高。抽穗期剑叶经光照低温处理１２、２４ 和３６ ｈ 后,光合作用是“桂山矮选３”和以“桂山矮选３”为母本的子代比“青华６ 号”和以“青华６ 号”为母本的子代下降较少。呼吸作用是前者比后者在处理１２ ｈ 时有明显升高现象。荧光参数Ｆｖ／Ｆｏ和Ｆｖ／Ｆｍ比值在处理２４ ｈ 时前者比后者下降明显,但在常温下恢复则是前者比后者明显较快。自然低温（寒露风）对叶绿素荧光的影响亦有相似的规律。对水稻后代的抗冷性倾向于母本进行了讨论     

Effects of two free radical scavengers and intermittent warming on chilling injury and polar lipid composition of cucumber and sweet pepper fruits

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and sweet pepper (Capsicum annuumL.) fruits were chilled at 2.5?C for different periods and thentransferred to 20?C and subsequently evaluated for chillinginjury. Sodium benzoate at 10 nw or ethoxyquin at 9.2 mM, appliedas a 5-min dip before chilling, increased the degree of unsaturationof 18-carbon fatty acids in the polar lipids and reduced theseverity of chilling injury. Intermittent warming to 20?C for24 hr at 3-day intervals also alleviated the chilling symptomsand increased fatty acid unsaturation of the polar lipids incucumber and pepper fruits.
