不同品种、不同花期的依兰花精油成分研究

为探讨依兰花精油的香气质量,我们对云南省西双版纳产依兰花精油以及引种栽培于西双版纳的泰国种、老挝种的依兰花精油的化学成分在Finnigan-4510 GC/MS/DS上用毛细管柱进行了定性和定量分析,鉴定了44个化学成分。分析结果表明,依兰油的香气与品种及精油中的酯类、醇类和酚醚的含量有关。倍半萜烯类和倍半萜醇类的含量越高,其香气质量越差。就西双版纳产依兰油的香气而言,依兰花由青转黄时得到的精油远较绿花和花蕾油为好。     

应用蛋白印迹法检测鼻咽癌病人血清中抗Epstein—Barr病毒IgA/EA抗体

曾毅等建立了一系列检测EB病毒IgA/VCA和IgA/EA抗体的鼻咽癌早期诊断方法,取得了满意的结果。为了进一步提高对鼻咽癌诊断更为特异的IgA/EA抗体的检出率,我们建立了检测EB病毒IgA/EA抗体的蛋白印迹法。方法敏感特异,结果令人满意。 本法中所用的两个质粒系由本实验室与西德Pettenkofer研究所Wolf教授的实验室合作构建。pUCARG1140和pUC9MBcE3.2质粒均为表达质粒,前者携带着来源于EB病毒Bam     

应用明胶颗粒凝集试验检测人免疫缺陷病病毒(HIV-1)抗体

明胶颗粒凝集试验是测定HIV-1抗体的新方法。本研究将明胶颗粒凝集试验与ELISA法、蛋白印迹法和间接免疫荧光试验做了比较,观察本方法的敏感性和特异性。共检测了195份来自法国和非洲象牙海岸的血清,凡是蛋白印迹法阳性的血清,明胶颗粒凝试验都是阳性。这表明本方法是特异和敏感的,方法简便,不需特殊仪器,省时,可用于HIV-1抗体的筛选,但多数蛋白印迹法可疑的血清,明胶颗粒试验均阴性。因此,对蛋白印迹法测出的可疑者应该用数种方法进行追踪检测。

赤(瓜包)亚族植物叶片中脉的比较解剖

本文对赤(瓜包)属(Thladiantha Bunge)、白兼果属(Baijiana A.M.Lu et J.Q.Li)和苦瓜属(Momordica L.)共11种植物叶片中脉进行了比较解剖学研究。除苦瓜属一种外,其余10种的叶片中脉解剖学资料均为首次报道。分析结果表明:叶片中脉维管束的数目以及排列方式具有分类学意义,而种间和种内维管束数目的减少,在一定程度上反映出植物迁移和演化的方向。     

Expression of c-myc protooncogene in rat lens cells during development,maturation and reversal of galactose cataracts

It is well established that normal patterns of epithelial cell proliferation and metabolism, and of fiber cell differentiation and maturation are essential for the maintenance of transparency in the ocular lens. Several factors, including exposure to high levels of sugars, have been known to result in the compromise of lens transparency. For example, initiation of lens cell damage by galactose induces lens epithelial cells to proliferate. Elevated levels of c-myc mRNA have usually been correlated with rapid cell growth and increased entry of cells into the S phase. Therefore, changes in c-myc mRNA levels may provide an early indication of the stimulation of lens epithelial cells to proliferate and differentiate, which has been postulated to be an early and important event in response to lens cell injury by galactose. By Northern blot hybridization analysis we quantitated c-myc mRNA levels in the lens capsule epithelia of rats (1) exposed to galactose, and (2) undergoing a partial recovery from the galactose-induced cell damage. At the onset of lens cell damage, we find c-myc mRNA to elevate to 6-fold by 24 hr, and by 48 hr decreases to about 3-fold the normal levels. During recovery, c-myc mRNA continues to be expressed at high levels approaching a 10-fold increase by day 12, then decreasing to levels of about 8-fold the control by day 30. The 24 h transitory elevation in c-myc mRNA in lens epithelial cells is in accord with our previous observations on the 24 h increase in MP26, crystallin and aldose reductase mRNAs following a high influx of galactose. Therefore, the elevation in c-myc mRNA as well suggest that galactose appears to cause lens cells to undergo an early transitory period of gene induction following the exposure of lens cells to galactose.     

Assignment of a novel protein tyrosine phosphatase gene (Hcph) to mouse chromosome 6.

Hematopoietic cell phosphatase (Hcph) was identified by amplification of conserved protein tyrosine phosphatase sequences from a myeloid cell line and is predominantly expressed in hematopoietic cells. Hcph is unique in containing two, tandemly repeated, src-homology 2 domains in the amino terminal region of the phosphatase. Using a genomic probe in interspecific backcross analysis, the murine Hcph gene maps to mouse Chromosome 6 and is tightly linked to the Tnfr-2 and Ly-4 genes.     

Multiplicity of soluble glucan-synthase activity in spinach leaves: Enzyme pattern and intracellular location

Buffer-extractable proteins from leaves of Spinacia oleracea L. were separated by non-denaturing polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Gels were stained for adenosine diphosphoglucose (ADPglucose)-dependent glucan-synthase (GS) activity (EC 2.4.1.21). Three major forms of activity were observed. No staining was detectable when ADPglucose was replaced by an equimolar concentration of either uridine, guanosine or cytosine diphosphoglucose. Two of the three GS forms exhibited both primed and citrate-stimulated unprimed activity whereas one enzyme form was strictly dependent upon the presence of an exogenous glucan. For intracellular localization, mesophyll protoplasts and intact chloroplasts were isolated and their enzyme pattern was compared with that of the leaf extract. Intactness and purity of the chloroplast preparations were ascertained by polarographic measurement of the ferricyanide- or CO₂-dependent oxygen evolution, by determination of marker-enzyme activities, and by electrophoretic evaluation of the content of chloroplast- and cytosol-specific glucanphosphorylase forms (EC 2.4.1.1). The three GS forms were present in mesophyll protoplasts. Intact chloroplasts possessed both primer-independent enzyme forms but lacked the primer-dependent one. The latter form was enriched in supernatant fractions of leaf homogenates when the intact chloroplasts had been pelleted by centrifugation. Thus, in spinach-leaf mesophyll cells soluble ADPglucose-dependent GS is located both inside and outside the chloroplast.Abbreviations GS glucan synthase - PAGE polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis This work has been made possible by grants from the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft and from the Minister für Wissenschaft und Forschung des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen.

对冷适应大鼠棕色脂肪和肝脏在非寒颤产热机制中作用的评价

本实验主要观察并比较了大鼠冷适应前后直肠温度(RT)、血清游离脂肪酸(SFFA)浓度、肩胛间棕色脂肪组织(IBAT)和肝脏cAMP含量的变化及其对去甲肾上腺素(NE)反应性的改变。结果表明:①冷适应28d大鼠在冷环境中RT稳定,NE刺激后RT上升幅度大于常温对照组(P<0.005);②冷适应1d组SFFA升高,冷适应28d组SFFA接近对照组,且对NE刺激无反应,对照组给NE后SFFA与RT一致性升高;③冷适应28d组IBAT的cAMP升高,而肝脏的cAMP含量三组间无显著性差异。NE刺激后,冷适应28d组IBAT和肝脏cAMP均升高,与RT反应一致,而对照组不变。结果提示,在5±3℃适应28d的大鼠已建立冷适应机制,非寒颤产热(NST)容量增加,在冷适应的不同时期,肝脏和IBAT调节NST的机制不同。
