Ezrin在化疗敏感性不同大B细胞淋巴瘤中表达的实验研究

目的：比较化疗敏感性不同弥漫性大B细胞淋巴瘤的蛋白质表达差异,寻找可反映大B细胞淋巴瘤化疗敏感性的标志物。方法：通过肿瘤药物敏感试验选取化疗高敏感性和低敏感性大B细胞淋巴瘤组织,进行蛋白质组学比较研究后得出差异表达蛋白;对在高敏感组中高表达的埃兹蛋白（Ezrin）进一步行免疫印迹验证,应用免疫组化技术检测在临床病例中的表达情况。结果：建立了化疗高敏感和低敏感大B细胞淋巴瘤差异表达蛋白质凝胶2D图谱,鉴定了28种差异表达蛋白,发现Ezrin蛋白在化疗高敏感组表达高于低敏感组,免疫印迹和免疫组化结果也进一步证实了Ezrin的这一表达状态。结论：Ezrin蛋白表达在化疗敏感性不同大B细胞淋巴瘤中存在差别,可能作为预测淋巴瘤化疗敏感性的候选标志物。

目的：检测子痫前期患者尿液中足细胞裂孔膜蛋白和足细胞标记蛋白的浓度并探讨其临床意义。方法：本实验以62例妊娠期妇女为研究对象,分为三组,其中正常妊娠期妇女25例为正常对照组,慢性高血压的妊娠期妇女17例为高血压组,子痫前期患者20例为子痫前期组。ELISA检测各组妊娠期妇女的尿液中足细胞裂孔膜蛋白和足细胞标记蛋白的表达;Bradford法检测各组妊娠期妇女的尿蛋白。结果：足细胞裂孔膜蛋白和足细胞标记蛋白在正常对照组尿液中含量极少,在高血压组中分泌增加,而子痫前期组患者中明显升高（P〈0．01）,且在子痫前期组尿液中足细胞裂孔膜蛋白和标记蛋白的分泌含量均成正相关（r2=0．79,P〈0．05）。子痫前期组患者中足细胞裂孔膜蛋白和足细胞标记蛋白与尿蛋白浓度成正相关（r2=0．58,P〈0．05;r2=0．79,P〈0．05）。结论：足细胞蛋白脱落主要发生于子痫前期患者,且足细胞蛋白脱落量与尿蛋白成正相关,能直接反映妊娠期患者的肾损伤程度,可作为预测罹患妊娠期高血压的指标。     

Mapping the Distribution of Anthrax in Mainland China, 2005–2013

BackgroundAnthrax, a global re-emerging zoonotic disease in recent years is enzootic in mainland China. Despite its significance to the public health, spatiotemporal distributions of the disease in human and livestock and its potential driving factors remain poorly understood.Conclusions/SignificanceAnthrax in China was characterized by significant seasonality and spatial clustering. The spatial distribution of human anthrax was largely driven by livestock husbandry, human density, land cover, elevation, topsoil features and climate. Enhanced surveillance and intervention for livestock and human anthrax in the high-risk regions, particularly on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, is the key to the prevention of human infections.     

Steroidal Saponins from the Rhizomes of Aspidistra typica

Eleven new furostanol saponins, typaspidosides B-L (1–11), one new spirostanol saponin, typaspidoside M (12), and five known spirostanol saponins, 25S-atropuroside (13), neoaspidistrin (14), (25S)-pratioside D₁ (15), 25S-aspidistrin (16) and 25S-neosibiricoside (17) were isolated from the rhizomes of Aspidistra typica Baill. The structures of the new compounds were established using 1D and 2D NMR (¹H-¹H COSY, HMQC, HMBC and ROESY) spectroscopy, high resolution mass spectrometry, and chemical methods. The aglycones of 1–3 (unusual furostanol saponins with opened E ring type), 9 and 10 (the methoxyl substituent at C-23 position) were found, identified from natural products for the first time. Moreover, the anti-HIV activities of the isolated steroidal glycosides were assessed, and compounds 13, 14, 16 and 17 exhibited high active against HIV-1.     

Identification and Characterization of the Lysine-Rich Matrix Protein Family in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pinctada fucata</Emphasis>: Indicative of Roles in Shell Formation

Mantle can secret matrix proteins playing key roles in regulating the process of shell formation. The genes encoding lysine-rich matrix proteins (KRMPs) are one of the most highly expressed matrix genes in pearl oysters. However, the expression pattern of KRMPs is limited and the functions of them still remain unknown. In this study, we isolated and identified six new members of lysine-rich matrix proteins, rich in lysine, glycine and tyrosine, and all of them are basic matrix proteins. Combined with four members of the KRMPs previously reported, all these proteins can be divided into three subclasses according to the results of phylogenetic analyses: KRMP1–3 belong to subclass KPI, KRMP4–5 belong to KPII, and KRMP6–10 belong to KPIII. Three subcategories of lysine-rich matrix proteins are highly expressed in the D-phase, the larvae and adult mantle. Lysine-rich matrix proteins are involved in the shell repairing process and associated with the formation of the shell and pearl. What’s more, they can cause abnormal shell growth after RNA interference. In detail, KPI subgroup was critical for the beginning formation of the prismatic layer; both KPII and KPIII subgroups participated in the formation of prismatic layer and nacreous layer. Compared with different temperatures and salinity stimulation treatments, the influence of changes in pH on KRMPs gene expression was the greatest. Recombinant KRMP7 significantly inhibited CaCO₃ precipitation, changed the morphology of calcite, and inhibited the growth of aragonite in vitro. Our results are beneficial to understand the functions of the KRMP genes during shell formation.     

燕麦属颖果微形态特征及其分类学意义

为探讨燕麦属颖果微形态特征的分类学意义,采用体视显微镜和扫描电子显微镜观察燕麦属27种颖果的微形态特征,结合分子系统发育证据分析其分类学意义。燕麦属颖果有纺锤形、倒披针形、椭圆形3种形状,条纹、棱纹、网纹3种纹饰。燕麦属颖果形状、纹饰和花柱基宿存模式具有有限的属下分类学意义,颖果大小和表面大毛密度具有种间鉴定价值,而颖果腹面形态、压扁方式、胚比不具有种间鉴定价值。大穗燕麦(Avena macrostachya Balansa ex Coss.Durieu)颖果纺锤形,条纹纹饰,隶属于燕麦属颖果微形态特征的变异范围。大粒裸燕麦(A.nuda L.)与普通栽培燕麦(A.sativa L.)颖果大小、形状及纹饰特征的差异支持将大粒裸燕麦作为独立种处理。燕麦属颖果大小、表面大毛密度、胚比变异幅度大,推测与分布区广幅的气候变异相适应,凹腹面颖果体积相对缩减,有利于颖果快速发育、成熟,推测与燕麦属植物在温带、寒带分布区适生期较短相适应。
