聚多巴胺改性聚合物在神经修复中的研究进展 *

多巴胺在碱性条件下会发生自聚合生成聚多巴胺。由于聚多巴胺具有超强黏附性能,在过去几年中其被大量应用于修饰各类生物材料。神经修复中使用的材料多为聚合物,但单独使用聚合物修复神经的效果不佳。聚多巴胺改性聚合物的亲水性和生物相容性均优于单一聚合物。除此以外,聚合物上的聚多巴胺涂层还可用于进一步修饰促进神经修复的分子。综述了聚多巴胺的合成机理、性能以及聚多巴胺改性各类聚合物在神经修复中的研究进展,并展望了该类材料的发展前景。

 本文根据我们严密设计的小集水区径流场连续6年的水文测定数据,进行了杉木人工林水量平衡和蒸散的研究。结果表明：集水区年平均降雨量1065.5mm, 在林冠作用面降雨量的分配中,林冠截留雨量264.6mm,截留率24.8%;穿透过林冠层的雨量799.82mm,树干径流量1.08mm,分别占降雨量的75.1%和0.1%。林内降水到达林地时,在枯枝落叶层这个作用面上净降水进行再分配,其中,地表径流量9.27mm,地下径流量203.00mm,总径流系数0.199。土壤蓄水量月变化较大,但年变化很小,占降雨量的1.2%。系统水量最大的输出是蒸散,每年以气态形式返回大气的水量866.03mm,占降雨量81.3%。在蒸散的水量中,林冠截留雨量的直接物理蒸发量为264.6mm,占总蒸散量的31.6%。     

促甲状腺激素对甲状腺细胞胞内游离钙和钙调蛋白的影响

本文研究TSH和forskolin对原代培养的猪甲状腺细胞[Ca~(2+)]_i和钙调蛋白的影响。结果表明,TSH可引起甲状腺细胞[Ca~(2+)]_1急性升高。此反应是剂量依赖关系,而与细胞外钙的存在与否无关。其反应性在细胞单层高于细胞是液,近汇合细胞单层高于汇合细胞单层。TSH作用3天,可使甲状腺细胞的钙调蛋白含量增高,此作用与TSH对甲状腺细胞数的影响无关。Forskolin对甲状腺细胞的[Ca~(2+)]_i和钙调蛋白均无明显的影响。

Membrane-microfilament interactions in ascites tumor cell microvilli. Identification and isolation of a large microfilament-associated membrane glycoprotein complex

[14C]Glucosamine metabolic labeling and concanavalin A blots were used to identify four major glycoprotein species associated with ascites tumor cell microvillar microfilament cores and with a transmembrane complex containing actin. Phalloidin shift analysis of glucosamine-labeled microvilli showed that glycoproteins of 110-120, 80, 65, and 55 kDa are stably associated with the microfilament cores. Analysis of large (greater than 10(6) kDa) transmembrane complexes from microvillar membranes made under microfilament-depolymerizing conditions (Carraway, C. A. C., Jung, G., and Carraway, K. L. (1983) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 80, 430-434) revealed glycoproteins of the same Mr values, showing the same relative staining or labeling patterns as those observed with the microfilament cores. Gel filtration of high salt, high pH extracts of intact microvilli, microfilament cores, or transmembrane complexes showed that in all of these fractions the glycoproteins are associated in a very large, stable complex. The glycoprotein multimer was isolated essentially free of actin and other components by Sephacryl S-1000 chromatography of microvilli, microvillar membranes prepared at pH 11, microfilament cores, or transmembrane complex fractions in Triton X-100, 1 M KCl, glycine, pH 9.5. Purified glycoprotein complex bound actin when incubated under polymerizing conditions. The presence of the glycoprotein heteromultimer in both microfilament cores and transmembrane complex from isolated membranes and the association of the purified glycoprotein complex with actin are consistent with our hypothesis that the glycoprotein-containing transmembrane complex is an association site for microfilaments at the plasma membrane.     

Purification of cytochrome cd1 nitrite reductase from Pseudomonas stutzeri JM300 and reconstitution with native and synthetic heme d1.

Cytochrome cd1 nitrite reductase has been purified from Pseudomonas stutzeri strain JM 300. This enzyme appears to be a dimer with a subunit molecular mass of 54 kDa and its isoelectric point is determined to be 5.4. The N terminus of amino acid sequence has strong homology with that of nitrite reductase from P. aeruginosa. The apoprotein of this enzyme has been reconstituted with native and synthetic heme d1. The nitrite reductase activity measured by NO and N2O gas evolution can be restored to 82% of the activity of the original enzyme when the protein was reconstituted with the native heme d1 and to 77% of the activity when reconstituted with the synthetic heme d1. The absorption spectra of both reconstituted enzymes are essentially identical to that of the original nitrite reductase. These results further substantiate the novel dione structure of heme d1 as proposed. The loss of NO2- reducing activity in the absence of heme d1 and its restoration by addition of heme d1 provides further evidence that heme d1 plays a key role in the conversion of NO2- to NO and N2O.     

The effect of high buffer cardioplegia and secondary cardioplegia on cardiac preservation and postischemic functional recovery: a 31P NMR and functional study in Langendorff perfused pig hearts.

High buffer cardioplegia may provide protection against ischemic damage by reducing the extent of intracellular acidosis. Secondary cardioplegia may improve postischemic recovery by restoration of high energy phosphates, ionic gradients, and intracellular pH. To test these hypotheses, pig hearts were arrested with high buffer (150 mM MOPS) cardioplegia or modified St. Thomas' solution II and then kept ischemic at 12 degrees C for 8 h. High energy phosphates and intracellular pH were followed during the period of ischemia, using 31P nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, and functional recovery was followed during reperfusion. The hearts arrested by high buffer cardioplegia showed significantly higher intracellular pH than hearts preserved with St. Thomas' solution, but there were no significant differences in high energy phosphates. There were no significant differences in functional recovery. We found, however, that secondary cardioplegia abolished ventricular fibrillation, and resulted in improved functional recovery after 8 h of ischemic preservation compared with the hearts reperfused with Krebs-Henseleit solution alone. Our results suggest that despite attenuating the decreases in intracellular pH, high buffer cardioplegia does not improve recovery following 8 h of preservation at 12 degrees C. Secondary cardioplegia reduces the incidence of ventricular fibrillation and improves postischemic functional recovery of the myocardium.
