青年昼间发汗调定点正常值探讨

以加热腿足诱发前臂屈侧初始发汗的口腔温度阈值,作为发汗调定点的参考值(ToSSP),检测健康青年93人夏冬两季昼间ToSSP134次。结果表明,季节、性别、民族、于室温24℃左右变异达30％的相对湿度对ToSSP均无显著影响。提示ToSSP为一间接反映体温调定点较发汗率为稳定的指标。ToSSP的频数分布属于正态,均值为37.34℃,95％正常值范围为36.97～37.71℃。经于本工作前,后年份检测的两组结果以及与正常体温夜间最低时相组和发热患者组的ToSSP相验证,证明此正常值范围可靠。检测ToSSP的潜伏期夏季均值为19′57″冬季为18′22″(P<0.05)。检测ToSSP时口温变化分别与皮肤温、心率变化紧密相关,因而心率,皮肤温可作为监测ToSSP的辅佐指标。     

一种新病毒——兔出血症病毒的鉴定初报

从我国新发生的一种家兔急性败血性传染病死兔内脏抽提物中,观察到典型的病毒粒子,回归兔可引起典型发病,再从病死兔内脏回收到同样病毒,证明该病系病毒性传染病,暂定名为“兔病毒性出血症”,病原暂定为“兔出血症病毒”。经初步鉴定,认为本病毒可能是一种首次发现的新病毒,属双股RNA病毒。但从病毒大小和核酸节段看,又不同于呼肠病毒科。最终归属正在进一步研究。     

激光、血卟啉对肿瘤细胞DNA单链断裂及其重接的影响

用简化的Kohn氏碱洗脱法,观察了光敏剂血卟啉衍生物(HPD)对小鼠S-180肿瘤细胞DNA单链断裂及其重接修复的影响。激光HPD能导致S-180细胞DNA单链断裂明显增加,而且这种断裂随着保温时间的延长,继续增多。在本实验条件下没有观察到HPD对X线的增敏作用,HPD不能增加X线所致的DNA单链断裂,也不能影响其重接。单链断裂重接动力学的实验进一步证明了这个论点。     

普通烟草和黄花烟草及体细胞杂种过氧化物酶同工酶等电聚焦电泳

日本学者长尾照义(1978)用原生质体融合获得普通烟草与黄花烟草的体细胞杂种植株。1980年陈家玉等在国内首先获得普通烟草(Copus Yeusuku No.4)和黄花烟草(Yellow Flower)的体细胞杂种植株。之后,中国农科院烟草所(1981)也得到相同的结果。陈家玉等(1983)对上述杂种进行了形态学、细胞学和同工酶的分析并取得一定的结果。Dlineee等(1975)分析比较了用等电聚焦技术分离的过氧     

红色角毛虫的形态学和形态发生过程的研究

观察并描述了上海采集到的红色角毛虫的形态结构和形态发生过程。发现形态发生时虫体分别于前、后两个区域发生前、后两个口围带原基,并且由同一个体分裂而成的前,后两个仔虫内,额、腹、横棘毛和缘棘毛的分化并不完全相同,以至造成两个仔虫上棘毛的数目和缘棘毛的列数有明显差异。根据红色角毛虫的形态结构及其形态发生中的一些不够稳定的特点,推测它可能是一种还处于分化中的腹毛类纤毛虫。     

Occurrence of the methylisobutylxanthine-stimulated cyclic GMP binding protein in various rat tissues

A new type of cGMP binding protein, the activity of which is characteristically stimulated by methylisobutylxanthine, has been previously discovered in rat lung and platelets (Hamet, P. and Coquil, J.F. (1978) J. Cyclic Nucleotide Res. 4, 281-290). In the present study, we demonstrate the occurrence of this protein in soluble extracts of a variety of rat tissues fractionated by a DEAE-Sepharose chromatography. In several tissues (spleen, lung and brain) the binding activity of this protein was of the same order of magnitude as that of the cGMP-dependent protein kinase.     

Complete complementary DNA of rat tyrosine aminotransferase messenger RNA. Deduction of the primary structure of the enzyme

The primary structure of rat tyrosine aminotransferase (L-tyrosine:2-oxoglutarate aminotransferase; EC 2.6.1.5), a liver-specific enzyme involved in gluconeogenesis, has been deduced from the nucleotide sequence of a cloned full-length cDNA. The mRNA is 2362 nucleotides long (excluding the poly(A) tail) and codes for a polypeptide of 454 amino acids with a molecular weight of 50634. Unambiguous identification was obtained by comparison of this sequence with the amino acid sequences of several peptides obtained from the purified enzyme.     

Opposite effects of two ligands for peripheral type benzodiazepine binding sites, PK 11195 and RO5-4864, in a conflict situation in the rat

The effects of two drugs acting at the peripheral type benzodiazepine binding sites, PK 11195 and RO5-4864, were examined in shock-induced suppression of drinking in rats. These two compounds have opposite effects : RO5-4864 (3.1-1205 mg/kg i.p.) enhanced whereas PK 11195 (25-50 mg/kg i.p.) decreased the punished responding, and PK 11195 (6.25 mg/kg, a dose which did not alter the punished responding) blocked the proconflict action of RO5-4864 (6.25 and 12.5 mg/kg). The effects of RO5-4864 and PK 11195 were not antagonized by RO15-1788, a selective antagonist of the central benzodiazepine site. In addition, PK 11195 (6.25 mg/kg) did not reverse the proconflict effect of two beta-carbolines : beta-CEE and FG 7142. AS picrotoxin did not change the punished responding, these data imply that the effects of RO5-4864 and PK 11195 on the one hand and those of chlordiazepoxide and beta-carbolines on the other hand are differentially mediated and suggest that the peripheral type benzodiazepine binding sites are involved in this conflict model.     

Repopulation kinetics in irradiated mouse lip mucosa: the relative importance of treatment protraction and time distribution of irradiations

The repopulation kinetics of the irradiated lip mucosa of mice has been investigated. Split-dose experiments showed that, in this tissue, repopulation starts within 3 days after the first irradiation and increases exponentially within 10 days. To assess the relative importance of protraction and distribution of irradiations as a function of time, 10 fractions were given in (1) 3 days (three irradiations per day with a 4-hr interval), (2) 11 days (daily fractions), or (3) two short courses, each consisting of five fractions given in 1.5 days separated by a rest period of 8 days, with an overall time of 11 days. The results show that by protracting the treatment from 3 to 11 days (with daily irradiations) repopulation accounts for recovery of approximately 13 Gy. Delivering the radiation in two short courses separated by a rest period leads to an additional recovery of approximately 5 Gy. The most plausible explanation for this observation is that repopulation is much more efficient during the rest period between the two courses than during continuous daily irradiation. Although the regimen of two short courses with a rest period spares the acute reaction, it will not enhance the late tolerance. Before thorough knowledge about the repopulation kinetics of the tumors can be gained, caution should be observed for indiscriminate use of split-course multiple-fraction-per-day (MFD) regimens for treating various tumors.
