Applied anatomy of the anterolateral femoral flap

A study of the source of the blood supply to the anterolateral femoral flap was carried out on 42 lower limbs of adult cadavers (among them 35 cadavers with injection of red latex and 1 with india ink into the arteries and 6 vascular cast specimens), and the surface locations of the vascular pedicle were detected on 50 healthy adults. It was found that the descending branch of the lateral circumflex femoral vessel was an ideal axial vessel. There are constant perforating branches of the myocutaneous artery or cutaneous branches from the intermuscular space to the anterolateral femoral skin. The area extends about 12 x 30 cm. Within the flap, the anterior branch of the anterolateral cutaneous nerve of the high is located. This flap has been widely used for free transplantation in China since 1983 with satisfactory results.     

诱导小麦-天兰偃麦草-黑麦三属杂种花粉植株的研究

以法国六倍体小黑麦为母本,分别与普通小麦(Triticum aestivum)和天兰偃麦草(Elytrigia intermedia of Agropyron glaucum)的杂交后代中的中间类型3号和5号杂交。由此获得的三属杂种F_1性状介于亲本之间,兼有三属亲本类型的特征,呈中间类型。用马铃薯-Ⅱ培养基培养三属杂种F_1的花药,诱导花粉愈伤组织。将所获得的愈伤组织转入190-2培养基进行分化,已成功地诱导出一批三属间杂种花粉植株,并用Giemsa显带技术鉴定花粉植株的染色体组组成。     

异细胞质八倍体小黑麦的获得及其细胞遗传

改变小黑麦细胞质有可能增加减数分裂的稳定性,提高小黑麦的结实率与籽粒饱满度。作者以不同细胞质的“中国春”小麦与黑麦杂交,F_1幼苗用秋水仙素加倍获得双二倍体、或以八倍体小黑麦为父本与F_1杂交,获得异细胞质八倍体小黑麦(Triticale 8x)8个品系。实验结果表明:细胞质不同的“中国春”小麦与黑麦杂交结实率差异显著,出苗率亦不同,F_1株型多为两亲的中间型,花药不开裂,个别组合出现雄蕊雌化现象,有的组合表现生长弱性,减数分裂中期Ⅰ常出现1至数个末端交叉的棒状二价体,其数量在不同组合间差异显著,表明异细胞质对染色体配对有影响。D类细胞质对改进八倍体小黑麦的结实率可能有一定的作用。     

A cell type-specific enhancer drives expression of the chick muscle acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit gene

The regulation of acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit gene expression was analyzed by transient expression assays. Using rabbit beta-globin cDNA as a reporter gene, we have confirmed that the 5'-flanking sequence of the chicken acetylcholine receptor alpha-subunit gene directs specific expression in differentiated C2C12 cells, a mouse muscle cell line, but not in undifferentiated C2C12 cells and mouse 3T3 fibroblasts. Testing chimeric plasmids containing Bal31 deletion mutants of the alpha-subunit gene upstream sequence, we found the -116 to -81 region of the alpha-subunit to be responsible for tissue- and stage-specific expression. This 36 bp fragment stimulates the activity of both alpha-subunit and SV40 promoters in a distance- and orientation-independent manner, thus fulfilling the criteria of an enhancer.     

湖北贝母单鳞片砂培繁殖研究

本文针对湖北贝母生产中存在繁殖系数低的问题,研究了单鳞片砂培繁殖对提高鳞茎繁殖率的效果和原理。试验结果表明:1.单鳞片繁殖率为对照种鳞茎的5—9倍,2.低温(2—10℃)预处理4—8周和暗条件培养,能有效地提高子球形成率,促使子球迅速长大,3.植物激素(6-BA、KT、2,4-D)处理,有利于促进鳞片不定芽原基的分化,繁殖率为种茎繁殖的9—11倍;4.单鳞片繁殖的小鳞茎主要发生在鳞片基部的茎盘上,还可发生在鳞片的远轴面上,但不发生在近轴面。     

慈菇匍匐茎中分泌道的初步研究

慈茹匍蔔茎的分泌道是裂生的胞间道,分布于匍匐茎的基本组织中。单个分泌道原始细胞起始于离茎端约1毫米处的基本分生组织中,原始细胞经分裂形成5—7个上皮细胞包围着中央的裂生腔隙,成为管道系统。上皮细胞无鞘细胞包围。上皮细胞中高尔基体和内质网发达,并溢出小囊泡向着分泌道腔隙面壁的质膜附近迁移,乳汁中亦存在大量完整的小囊泡。上皮细胞和外围薄壁细胞之间的壁层具有大量胞间连丝,小囊泡和内质网的膜结构与胞间连丝末端相接,同时可见上皮细胞的质膜在数处反折内陷,形成袋状结构,在与上皮细胞相对的薄壁细胞内也有同样现象出现,袋状结构内含小形颗粒或囊泡,并在结构上显示出上皮细胞与相邻薄壁细胞间存在着活跃的物质交流。由此认为。代谢物质以整体小囊泡的形式经胞间连丝或内陷的质膜向分泌道迁移是物质运输和分泌的可能方式之一。在电镜下观察,液泡中的积聚物与乳汁十分相似,液泡可能是乳汁的贮存场所之一。     

转化细胞及腹水癌细胞对生长调节因子敏感性的研究

 本文~3H-TdR参入细胞DNA为指标研究了EGF等生长调节因子对小鼠腹水癌细胞DNA合成的影响,发现不同癌细胞对EGF等生长因子的敏感性有所差异,考虑到这也许与肿瘤细胞自身特性如恶性度有关。为了进一步探讨恶性度与这一敏感性是否相关,我们观察并比较了C_3H10T1/2CL_8(一种来源于鼠胚的正常成纤维细胞,简称NC_3H_(10)及转化的C_3H_(10)T1/2CL_8(用~3H-TdR转化的上述细胞,简称TC_3H_(10))对EGF等生长因子的敏感性。实验证明,细胞恶性转化后,对EGF的敏感性明显降低,~3H-TdR参入率降至原先的1/4以下。用DBcAMP作用于NC_3H_(10)和TC_3H_(10)均能抑制~3H-TdR参入DNA并可抑制EGF诱导的~3H-TdR参入作用。因此,我们认为,有关物理的致癌因素如放射性同位素,像生物、化学的致癌因素一样,亦能引起其转化细胞对外源性生长调节因子敏感性的改变。     

Interaction of opioid peptides and other drugs with multiple kappa receptors in rat and human brain. Evidence for species differences.

Previous experiments resolved four kappa binding sites in guinea pig brain termed kappa 1a, kappa 1b, and kappa 2b. The present study was undertaken to examine the occurrence of kappa receptor subtypes in rat and human brain. [3H]U69,593 and [3H]bremazocine were used to label kappa 1 and kappa 2 binding sites, respectively, present in brain membranes depleted of mu and delta binding sites by pretreatment with the irreversible ligands, BIT and FIT. Low levels of [3H]U69,593 binding precluded a detailed quantitative study of kappa 1 binding sites in these species. Quantitative examination of [3H]bremazocine binding resolved two kappa 2 binding sites in both rat and human brain whose ligand selectivity patterns differed from that of the guinea pig. These observations suggest that there may be considerable variation in the ligand recognition site of kappa receptor subtypes among mammalian species.
