Toll样受体2及Toll样受体4在大鼠实验性变应性鼻炎中的表达

目的研究Toll样受体2（Toll-like receptor2,TLR2）及Toll样受体4（TLR4）在实验性变应性鼻炎大鼠鼻黏膜中的表达及脂多糖（Lipopolysaccharide,LPS）对其表达的影响。方法SD大鼠48只随机分为正常对照组（A组）;变应性鼻炎组（B组）：经腹腔注射及鼻腔滴入卵清白蛋白（Ovalbumin,OVA）建立变应性鼻炎（Allergic rhinitis,AR）模型;变应性鼻炎＋LPS刺激组（C组）：大鼠激发成变应性鼻炎模型后再以LPS滴鼻。用逆转录聚合酶链反应（RT-PCR）方法检测鼻黏膜中TLR2 mRNA、TLR4 mRNA的表达。结果B、C组大鼠均成功激发为AR动物模型;各组鼻黏膜中均有TLR2 mRNA、TLR4 mRNA表达;各组间TLR2 mRNA的表达差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。B、C组TLR4 mRNA的表达较A组高（P〈0．01）;C组TLR4 mRNA表达较B组增高（P〈0．01）。结论AR大鼠有TLLR4的表达增高;LPS刺激后TLR4表达进一步增高,说明TLR4可能参与AR的发病。TLR2在AR大鼠中的表达未见增高;LPS刺激后。TLR2表达未见进一步增高,TLR2与变应性鼻炎的关系有待进一步研究。

Causes and Consequences of Changes in Nutrient Structure in the Jiaozhou Bay

Concentrations and ratios of nutrients in Jiaozhou Bay, China, have changed much in the past decades, with trends indicating an increase in nitrogen and a decrease in silicate. Statistical analysis has shown that the long-term variations of nutrients are associated with agricultural activities, precipitation, and anthropogenic factors. Stoichiometric calculations indicate that the nutrient structure has become more and more unbalanced. There has been almost no possibility for nitrogen limitation since the 1980s, the probability of P limitation has increased, and the probability of Si limitation has also increased markedly from the 1980s to the 1990s. As a consequence of changes in nutrient structure, a decrease in the abundance of net phytoplankton was evident, whereas total chlorophyll a levels have remained roughly unchanged at around 3.55 μg/L. Thus, it is likely that smaller species have taken the niche vacated by the larger species. Changes in phytoplankton size and species composition may ultimately lead to various functional and structural changes at the system level.     

黑色素皮质素受体激动剂的高通量筛选模型研究

为了建立黑色素皮质素受体（MC4R）激动剂的高通量筛选方法,将人的MC4R基因质粒（hMC4R/pCDNA3.1）与报告基因质粒（3×CRE/3×MRE/SRE-LUC）按1∶5的比例共转染到HEK293细胞,通过G418筛选,建立了稳定的MC4R激动剂筛选细胞株.利用MC4R内源激动剂α-MSH探索和优化了每孔接种细胞数目、激动剂孵育时间、溶剂DMSO终浓度、荧光素酶底物浓度等筛选条件,建立了可靠的筛选方法.实验表明：当细胞数目为4×10⁴个/孔,激动剂孵育时间为8 h,每孔DMSO终浓度小于1％和α-MSH终浓度为1 μmol/L时,系统Z'-因子接近0.7,能够用于MC4R激动剂的高通量筛选.

A selective resonance scattering assay for immunoglobulin G using Cu(II)-ascorbic acid-immunonanogold reaction

In sodium acetate–acetic acid buffer solution, Au, Ag, Pt, Pd, Fe₃O₄, and Cu₂O nanoparticles have catalytic enhancement effect on the reduction of Cu²⁺ by ascorbic acid to form large copper particles that exhibit a strong resonance scattering peak at 610 nm. Those nanocatalytic reactions were studied by the resonance scattering spectral technique, and smaller nanogold exhibited stronger catalytic enhancement effect in pH 4.2 sodium acetate–acetic acid buffer solution. The resonance scattering intensity at 610 nm increased linearly with the concentrations of 0.02 to 1.60, 0.040 to 1.20, and 0.12 to 4.70 nM nanogold in sizes of 5, 10, and 15 nm with detection limits of 0.010, 0.030, and 0.10 nM, respectively. An immunonanogold-catalytic resonance scattering bioassay was established, combining the immunonanogold-catalytic effect on CuSO₄–ascorbic acid reaction with the resonance scattering detection technique. As a model, 0.03 to 7.5 ng ml⁻¹ immunoglobulin G can be assayed by this immunonanogold-catalytic resonance scattering bioassay with a detection limit of 0.015 ng ml⁻¹.
