烙铁头蛇毒纤维蛋白原溶酶研究 Ⅰ分离纯化及理化性质(英文)

通过DEAE-SephadexA-50,DEAE-SepharoseCL-6B,MonoQ （FPLC）三步离子交换柱层析,纯化得到一新的纤维蛋白原溶酶,在碱性聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳和SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳上均呈单一的蛋白带。分子量为2600,等电点pl4.7;它是一个糖蛋白,含糖量6.4%,其中中性糖0.3%,已糖胺4.9%,唾液酸1.2%。烙铁头蛇毒纤维蛋白原溶酶TMVFg由187个氨基酸组成,含有较高的酸性氨基酸,此外甘氨酸含量也较高。TMVFg热稳定性强,而酸不稳定,在280 nm处具有典型的蛋白吸收峰,在无离子水中紫外消光系数E0.1%/280 nm=1.558。纯化的TMVFg具有较强的精氨酸酯酶活力,对苯甲酰-L-精氨酸乙酯（BAEE）的Km值为1.4×10[-3]M。TMVFg的活性受苯甲基丹磺酰氟（PMSF）抑制;乙二胺四乙酸（EDTA）对活性无影响。TMVFg不能使纤维蛋白原凝固,但能水解纤维蛋白原α、β链。纤溶实验表明TMVFg具有激活纤溶作用。纯化的烙铁头蛇毒纤维蛋白原溶酶对酪蛋白无作用,无出血活性,因而与凝血酶样酶、出血毒素及β-纤维蛋白原溶酶（OUYANG et al.,1977）明显不同。     

In vitro activity of 15-azasterol (A25822B) against chalkbrood pathogen Ascosphaera apis in the honey bee

The antifungal agent 15-azasterol A25822B was examined for effects on the growth and development of Ascosphaera apis. The minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) of azasterol against A. apis was 1 m. Growth and development of A. apis was completely controlled at this concentration. At a concentration of 0.01 m growth of A. apis was retarded and although sporocysts were formed developing spores were not be able to reach maturation. A major effect of azasterol at this low concentration was the accumulation of lipid in the hyphae, sporocysts and immature spores. In addition it caused a conformational change in mitochondria and damage to the spore membrane structure. On the basis of these results, further investigations of azasterol for the treatment of chalkbrood disease in the honey bee are warranted.Work was performed during sabbatical leave at the University of California, Davis.     

Utilization of alpha-ketoglutarate as a precursor for transmitter glutamate in cultured cerebellar granule cells

Alpha-ketoglutarate together with an amino group donor (alanine) was shown to be able to serve as a precursor for the glutamate pool which is released by potassium-induced depolarization (i.e., transmitter glutamate) in cerebellar granule cells. However, these compounds could not be utilized as precursors for intracellular glutamate or for release of transmitter aspartate. The formation of transmitter glutamate was inhibited by the transamination inhibitor aminooxyacetic acid but not by phenylsuccinate, an inhibitor of the dicarboxylate carrier in the mitochondrial membrane. Both of these inhibitors have previously been found to inhibit synthesis of transmitter glutamate from glutamine. The results support the hypothesis that alpha-ketoglutarate and alanine undergo transamination in the cytosol to form pyruvate and glutamate, and that this glutamate pool is available for transmitter release of glutamate but does not constitute the major intracellular pool of glutamate.     

人体急性缺氧性意识障碍

实验分为低压组(低压舱7,000米)与常压组(吸入7.6％低氧混合气),每组受试者各为12名,有7名参加了两组实验。每组各有4名平均经15分23秒发生了意识模糊或丧失(通称意识障碍)。障碍者的肺泡氧分压为29.9±0.8mmHg。障碍发生前,呈现严重无力,觉醒度降低,反应迟钝,脑波特征是高幅6波(100-300μV)占优势。障碍发生时,高幅δ波丧失节律,幅度衰减,波型不规则,额枕失同步;呼吸循环代偿功能增强程度明显高于障碍前。本工作对于预测和评价人体急性缺氧引起的意识障碍有意义。

Autocrine role of estrogens in the augmentation of luteinizing hormone receptor formation in cultured rat granulosa cells

The effects of estrogens on gonadotropin-stimulated luteinizing hormone (LH) receptor formation were examined in primary cultures of rat granulosa cells. Granulosa cells were cultured for 3 days with increasing concentrations of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) in the presence or absence of native and synthetic estrogens. Follicle-stimulating hormone stimulated LH receptor formation in a dose-dependent fashion, and estrogens enhanced the FSH-stimulated LH receptor content by decreasing the apparent ED50 of FSH. At 6.25 ng/ml FSH, the enhancement in LH receptor was estrogen dose dependent, with an ED50 value of about 3 X 10(-9) M for 17 beta-estradiol. The increased LH receptor content seen in cells treated with FSH and estrogen was correlated with increased cAMP production by these cells in response to LH stimulation. Time course studies revealed enhancement of FSH-stimulated LH receptor induction at 48 and 72 h of culture. Granulosa cells were also cultured with FSH for 2 days to induce functional LH receptors, then further cultured for 3 days with LH in the presence or absence of estrogens. At 30 ng/ml LH, increasing concentrations of estrogens maintained LH receptor content in a dose-dependent fashion, with their relative estrogenic potencies in keeping with reported binding affinities to estrogen receptors. An autocrine role of estrogens on LH receptor formation was further tested in granulosa cells treated with FSH and an aromatase substrate (androstenedione) to increase estrogen biosynthesis. Cotreatment with semipurified estrogen antibodies partially blocked the FSH stimulation of LH receptors, whereas nonimmune serum was ineffective. Also, inclusion of diethylstilbestrol prevented the inhibitory effect of the estrogen antibodies. Thus, local estrogens in ovarian follicles may play an autocrine role in granulosa cells to enhance LH receptor formation and to increase granulosa cell responsiveness to the LH surge, with subsequent ovulation and adequate corpus luteum formation.     

Characterization of acetylcholinesterase activity from Drosophila melanogaster

The acetylcholinesterase activity of the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster, was characterized biochemically. The activity is associated with a glycoprotein which is divided between a detergent-extractable membrane-bound fraction and a soluble fraction. The acetylcholinesterase activity is concentrated in the head of the insect. Through pharmacological methods, greater than 95% of the cholinesterase is judged to be true acetylcholinesterase, and not pseudocholinesterase. As expected for an acetylcholinesterase, the enzyme has a high affinity for acetylthiocholine and is inhibited by excess concentrations of acetylthiocholine. The soluble enzyme is found predominantly as a 7.8 S form; a smaller amount of an approximately 6 S form is also present, and a greater than or equal to 14 S form may exist. The detergent-solubilized acetylcholinesterase has a sedimentation coefficient of 7.5 S in the presence of detergent. The thermal inactivation rates for the soluble and the membrane bound enzymes are markedly different.
