两系杂交小麦恢复系MR168抗条锈病基因遗传分析及分子标记定位

小麦条锈病是影响杂交小麦普及推广的重要因素。文章利用基因推导法和SSR分子标记技术,研究了温光型两系杂交小麦恢复系MR168的抗条锈性遗传规律及其控制基因染色体位置。结果表明,MR168对CY29、CY31、CY32、CY33等条锈菌生理小种表现高抗至免疫;对SY95-71/MR168杂交组合的正反交F1、BC1、F2和F3群体分单株接种鉴定显示,MR168对CY32号小种的抗性受1对显性核基因控制,该抗病基因来源于春小麦品种辽春10号。利用集群分离分析法(Bulked segregant analysis,BSA)和简单重复序列(Simple sequence repeat,SSR)分子标记分析抗病亲本MR168、感病亲本SY95-71及183个F2代单株,发现了与MR168抗条锈病基因连锁的5个微卫星标记Xgwm273、Xgwm18、Xbarc187、Xwmc269、Xwmc406,并将该基因初步定位在1BS着丝粒附近,暂命名为YrMR168;构建了包含YrMR168的SSR标记遗传图谱,距离YrMR168最近的两个微卫星位点是Xgwm18和Xbarc187,遗传距离分别为1.9 cM和2.4 cM,这两个微卫星标记可用于杂交小麦抗条锈病分子标记辅助育种。

组胺H1受体功能及调节机制研究进展

组胺1型受体(H1R]受体作为组胺最主要的受体亚型,广泛分布于中枢和外周神经末梢,随着各类新型H1受体桔抗剂的发现和基因敲除动物的应用,H1R的功能研究及其活化调节机制研究也不断深入.组胺通过H1R参与调节机体多种重要的生理病理功能,如参与炎症反应、疼痛反应、血管调节、认知功能、睡眠清醒节律、饮食节律和肥胖等.H1R活化可激活磷脂酶C(PLC),PLC水解1,4,5-磷脂酰二磷酸盐产生甘油二酯(DAG)和肌醇三磷酸(IP3),后者激活细胞内Ca2+通道,活化氮氧化物合成酶,最终生成NO和鸟苷酸环化酶(cGMP),并引起钾通道开放,导致超极化;也可激活磷脂酶A2(PLA2)形成花生四烯酸(AA).H1R可通过活化其基因转录水平进行上调.本文就近十年来国外相关进展情况做一综述.     

Identification of tumor metastasisrelated gene TMSG-1 by mRNA differential display

To investigate genes involved in cancer metastasis, mRNA differential display was used to compare the levels of gene expression of two cancer sublines derived from prostate carcinoma cell PC-3M that had different metastatic potentials. The differentially expressed genes were confirmed by Northern blot, and sequenced. The full-length cDNA of a tumor metastasis suppressor gene (TMSG-1) was obtained by using EST assembling and verified by RT-PCR and sequencing. The results showed that expression levels of TMSG-1 were lower in the highly metastatic cell line 1E8, compared with the non-metastatic cell line 2B4. The difference was significant. Full-length cDNA of TMSG-1 was about 2 kb, containing an open reading frame that encoded a protein of 230 amino acids. GenBank Blastn showed no marked homology with known genes. The functional prediction of amino acids sequence encoded by TMSG-1 gene indicated TMSG-1 protein was transmembrane protein, with 3 transmembrane domains, 3 putative protein kinase phosphorylatio

Leptin对猪原代脂肪细胞脂解及其关键脂酶mRNA表达的影响

Leptin是由脂肪组织分泌的内源因子,在调节机体能量平衡过程中起重要作用.Leptin促进脂解的研究由来已久,但其作用机理尚不完善.本研究旨在通过系统检测关键脂酶mRNA的表达变化来探讨Leptin促进脂解的分子机理.运用形态学观察,油红O染色和RT-PCR鉴定培养的猪原代脂肪细胞;甘油测定试剂盒和游离脂肪酸(FFA)测定试剂盒分别检测甘油和FFA的释放;半定量RT-PCR检测关键脂酶mRNA的表达.结果显示:100 nmol/L的Leptin可显著上调ATGL、TGH-2、HSL、MGL和LPL mRNA的表达(P<0.01),但同时下调Perilipin mRNA的表达(P<0.01);Leptin呈浓度依赖性促进甘油的释放(P<0.01),但对FFA的释放影响不显著(P>0.05).以上结果提示,Leptin可能主要通过上调ATGL、MGL、LPL和下调Perilipin的表达促进猪原代脂肪细胞的脂解;同时推测,FFA释放的相对稳定可能是由Leptin通过上调UCPs的表达而增加FFA的消耗引起的.
