以氚标记胸腺嘧啶核苷(~3H-TdR)掺入法检测每分钟脉冲数(CPM),比较母牛分枝杆菌活菌悬液、辐射杀死菌悬液及高温杀死菌悬液对健康人外周血T淋巴细胞增殖反应的影响.以此作为评价治疗以细胞介导免疫为主的结核病免疫功能障碍免疫制剂效力的一个重要参数.在加入单一刺激因子实验中,对照组CPM为448±131;加入BCG、母牛分枝杆菌活菌悬液、辐射杀灭菌悬液以及高温杀死菌悬液的CPM分别为1037±194,2299±140,1819±528,994±186.这4种制剂的刺激指数均在2.0以上,尤其是母牛分枝杆菌活菌悬液、辐射杀死菌悬液分别为5.13,4.06.结果表明,母牛分枝杆菌3种制剂与BCG基本相似,在体外对T淋巴细胞增殖反应有明显的促进作用,其中以活菌悬液和辐射杀死菌悬液更为显著.另一试验中,以重组白细胞介素-2(rIL-2)作对照,BCG、母牛分枝杆菌悬液、辐射杀死菌悬液及高温杀死菌悬液分别加入rIL-2,目的在于观察菌体抗原加淋巴因子对T淋巴细胞增殖反应有无协同刺激作用.对照组的CPM为3721±1336,BCG加rIL-2组CPM为6904±1218;母牛分枝杆菌3种制剂的CPM分别为9544±172…

Metabolomic analysis of amino acid and energy metabolism in rats supplemented with chlorogenic acid

This study was conducted to investigate effects of chlorogenic acid (CGA) supplementation on serum and hepatic metabolomes in rats. Rats received daily intragastric administration of either CGA (60 mg/kg body weight) or distilled water (control) for 4 weeks. Growth performance, serum biochemical profiles, and hepatic morphology were measured. Additionally, serum and liver tissue extracts were analyzed for metabolomes by high-resolution ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance-based metabolomics and multivariate statistics. CGA did not affect rat growth performance, serum biochemical profiles, or hepatic morphology. However, supplementation with CGA decreased serum concentrations of lactate, pyruvate, succinate, citrate, β-hydroxybutyrate and acetoacetate, while increasing serum concentrations of glycine and hepatic concentrations of glutathione. These results suggest that CGA supplementation results in perturbation of energy and amino acid metabolism in rats. We suggest that glycine and glutathione in serum may be useful biomarkers for biological properties of CGA on nitrogen metabolism in vivo.     

Molecular Cytogenetic Characterization of a Wheat - Leymus mollis 3D（3Ns） Substitution Line with Resistance to Leaf Rust

Leymus mollis （Trin.） Pilger （NsNsXmXm, 2n = 28）, a wild relative of common wheat, possesses many potentially valuable traits that could be transferred to common wheat during breeding programs. In this study, the karyotypic constitution of a wheat - L. mollis 3D（3Ns#1） disomic substitution line isolated from the F5 progeny of octoploid Tritileymus M842-16 x Triticum durum cv. D4286, which was designated as 10DM57, was determined using genomic in situ hybridization （GISH）, fluorescent in situ hybridization （FISH）, SSR markers, and EST- STS markers. Screening of mitosis and meiosis showed that 10DM57 had a chromosome karyotype of 2n = 42 =21Ⅱ. GISH indicated that 10DM57 was a line with 40 chromosomes from wheat and two of the Ns chromosomes from L. mollis, which formed a ring bivalent in pollen mother cells at metaphase I. FISH analysis showed that the chromosome 3D may be replaced by 3Ns#1 in 10DM57. DNA markers, including SSR and EST-STS primers, showed that the pair of wheat chromosome 3D in 10DM57 was substituted by the pair of chromosome 3Ns#t from L. mollis. Evaluation of the agronomic traits showed that, compared with its common wheat relative 7182, 10DM57 was resistant to leaf rust while the spike length and number of spikes per plant were improved significantly, which correlated with a higher wheat yield. The new germplasm, 10DM57, could be exploited as an intermediate material in wheat genetic and breeding programs.     

Biophysical studies on the differentiation of human CD14+ monocytes into dendritic cells

Dendritic cells (DCs), which are the most efficient antigen-presenting cells (APCs) currently known, can be derived from CD14⁺ monocytes (DC predecessor cells) in vitro. Immature DCs actively take up antigens and pathogens, generate major histocompatability complex-peptide complexes, and migrate from the sites of antigen acquisition to secondary lymphoid organs to become mature dendritic cells that interact with and stimulate T-lymphocytes. During this process, the cells must undergo deformation to translocate through several barriers, including the basement membrane and interstitial connective tissue in the blood vessel wall. To further understand the mechanisms of the activation of immunological responses and the migration from peripheral tissue to secondary lymphoid organs, we have applied biophysical and microrheological methods to study the development processes of DCs in vitro. The results showed that membrane fluidity, osmotic fragility, membrane viscoelastic properties, infrared spectroscopy, and cytoskeleton organization of DCs exhibit significant differences in different developmental stages.
