三化螟有效积温的研究——Ⅰ.各虫态期的发育零点和其有效积温

1.三化螟卵、幼虫和蛹的发育起点和发育零点都系实测结果。卵的孵化零点为16℃,胚胎发育零点为15℃,幼虫发育零点为12℃,幼虫的化蛹零点和蛹的羽化零点都为15℃。 2.三化螟各虫态的有效积温,卵平均为81.1日度,幼虫为507.2日度,蛹为103.7日度,共计为692.0日度。卵和蛹的有效积温随着温度的上升而增加,而幼虫的则恰为相反。 3.发育零点的测定方法有实测,计算和图测三种。后面两种方法所得的结果都与实测的有一定的距离。     

大鼠海马—小脑皮层—小脑深部核团投射的电生理学和HRP研究

本文用电生理学和HRP示踪法,研究了大鼠海马-小脑皮层投射的空间分布,小脑皮层的海马投射区与其深部核团间的纤维联系。 电生理学的实验结果表明,刺激背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区,均可使小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶的浦肯野细胞产生顺行多突触的诱发简单锋电位和复杂锋电位反应。提示背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区与小脑皮层之间有经苔状纤维和攀缘纤维的多突触投射。实验证明,大鼠的这一投射的终止区域,集中在小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶中线外侧0.8—1.4mm的范围内;并且来自CA_1区的投射以对侧性为主,CA_3区的投射以同侧性为主。HRP示踪的实验表明,背侧海马CA_1/CA_3区在小脑皮层第Ⅵ小叶的投射区是小脑纵区组构的间位区,该区皮层与间位核之间存在着交互投射关系。

小麦幼苗根系镉螯合素

从经Cd~(2+)处理的小麦幼苗根系中分离得到一种镉结合复合物(Cd-BC)。通过SephadexG75,DEAE-52柱层析纯化,鉴定了此复合物性质:(1)紫外吸收光谱在255～265 tim间有一个“肩”,A_(250)/A_(280)>1;(2)在Sephadex G75柱层析上的表观分子量约为10kD,但在SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳上呈现的条带紧接着前沿,分子量非常小;(3)氨基酸组分分析,约90％的氨基酸残基为Glu/Gln,Cys和Gly,三者比例约为4:4:1。结果说明小麦幼苗根系Cd-BC是寡聚肽,是植物镉螯合素(Cd-PCs)的聚合体。

Geometric design improvements for femoral graft-artery junctions mitigating restenosis

The present study is based on the hypothesis that nonuniform hemodynamics, represented by large time-averaged wall shear stress gradients, trigger abnormal biological processes leading to rapid restenosis, i.e. excessive tissue overgrowth and renewed plaque formation, and hence early graft failure. It implies that this problem may be significantly mitigated by finding graft-artery bypass configurations for which the wall shear stress gradient is approximately zero and hence nearly uniform hemodynamics is achieved. These fluid flow and geometric design considerations are applied to four different end-to-side anastomoses for the distal end of a femoral artery bypass with an appropriate test input pulse and a typical 20–80 flow division. A validated finite-volume code has been used to compute the transient three-dimensional velocity vector fields, wall shear stress distributions and surface contours of the wall shear stress gradients. It is shown that large anastomotic flow areas, small continuously changing bifurcation angles, and smooth junction wall curvatures reduce local time-averaged wall shear stress gradients significantly and hence should mitigate restenosis.     

Kinetics of tert-[35S]Butylbicyclophosphorothionate Binding in the Cerebral Cortex of Newborn and Adult Rats: Effects of GABA and Receptor Desensitization

Abstract: The effects of GABA on the kinetics of tert -[³⁵S]butylbicyclophosphorothionate ([³⁵S]TBPS) binding to the convulsant site of GABA_A receptors were studied in membrane suspensions from the cerebral cortex of newborn (1-day-old) and adult (90-day-old) rats. TBPS dissociation was biphasic in neonates and adults, indicating that more than one interconvertible state of [³⁵S]TBPS binding sites may be present in the cerebral cortex. In the absence of GABA, the fast ( t _1/2, 11 min) and slow ( t _1/2, 77 min) components of TBPS dissociation in newborn rats were approximately fourfold slower than in adults. The acceleration of the dissociation rates caused by 2 µ M GABA, however, was more robust in neonates than in adults (six- to ninefold vs. twofold increase, respectively). Moreover, the dissociation rates of TBPS in membranes preincubated with 2 µ M GABA (dissociation started by adding 40 µ M picrotoxin) were two- to fourfold slower than in membranes preincubated without GABA (dissociation started by adding 40 µ M picrotoxin plus 2 µ M GABA). Taken together, these results suggest that (1) the closed state of GABA_A receptors is associated with a more effective steric barrier for the binding of TBPS in neonates compared with adults, (2) GABA produces a larger acceleration of the binding kinetics of TBPS in neonates than in adults, and (3) long incubations with GABA may cause receptor desensitization, which in turn slows down the dissociation rates of TBPS.     

肾素－血管紧张素系统──应激激素反应系统

各种急性与慢性应激时,循环血中及脑、心血管、肾腺等组织中血管紧张素Ⅱ（ＡⅡ）显著增多;人剧烈运动后血浆ＡⅡ与皮质醇一样均剧烈增加,在慢性应激性高血压动物循环及组织中,ＡⅡ含量持续地增高。还发现高浓度ＡⅡ对肾上腺糖皮质激素的分泌有直接的刺激作用,而组织ＡⅡ增多又受肾上腺素能β受体的激发。根据近年来的系列工作,并结合文献,我们认为ＡⅡ是一种重要的应激激素;肾素－血管紧张素系统是一个应激激素反应系统;它与经典的应激激素反应系统,下丘脑－垂体－肾上腺皮质系统及交感－肾上腺髓质系统也存在着密切的关系。

A lea-class gene of tomato confers salt and freezing tolerance when expressed in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

During periods of water deficit, plants accumulate late embryogenesis-abundant (LEA) proteins which are thought to protect cells from stresses associated with dehydration. One of these genes, le25, is expressed in tomato leaves and roots in response to water deficit and abscisic acid accumulation. To study the function of this protein and to test the effect of overproduction of the LE25 protein in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (Sc), a recombinant plasmid in which le25 is expressed under the control of the GAL1 promoter was constructed. The content of LE25 was high in Sc cells transformed with the recombinant plasmid. The transformant exhibited several stress-tolerant phenotypes. Growth of the transformant in a medium with 1.2 M NaCl was improved, as compared to a control strain. While the control strain showed a long lag phase of 40 h, le25-expressing cells showed a shortened lag phase of 10 h. However, no growth improvement was observed in a medium with 2 M sorbitol. In addition, the transformant had an increased survival rate after freezing stress, but not after high-temperature stress. These results, together with its predicted secondary structure, may indicate that LE25 functions as an ion scavenger.
