氰类和酯类取代基水溶金属卟啉与DNA相互作用的共振拉曼研究

用共振拉曼和紫外－可见吸收光谱研究了水溶金属卟啉４－Ｎ－乙酸乙酯基－吡啶基铜卟啉和镍卟啉［简称Ｃｕ（ＮＥＡＥ）和Ｎｉ（ＮＥＡＥ）］及４－Ｎ－乙腈基－吡啶基铜卟啉［简称Ｃｕ（ＮＡＣＮ）］与小牛胸腺ＤＮＡ的相互作用。分析表明Ｃｕ（ＮＥＡＥ）、Ｎｉ（ＮＥＡＥ）和Ｃｕ（ＮＡＣＮ）分别以外部键联、部分插入和沟槽方式与ＤＮＡ作用;卟啉插入ＤＮＡ时吡啶基团向卟啉环平面转动但不可能转成与之共面;而以非插入方式作用时吡啶基团会向垂直于或者平行于卟啉环平面转动。吡啶取代基的大小和空间位阻是影响相互作用方式的关键因素之一。

Effects of Temperature,Shoot Age,and Medium on Gall Induction by Subanguina picridis in Vitro

The influence of temperature, shoot age, and medium on gall induction by Subanguina picridis on Russian knapweed (Acroptilon repens) was examined in vitro. The optimal temperature for gall formation was 20 C. Gall induction was delayed as the temperature decreased, and decreased as shoot age increased. Bud primordia (0-day-old shoots and 5-day-old shoots) with an average length of 4.2 mm and 7.9 mm were the most suitable tissues for nematode development and gall formation. Gall formation was more effective on B5G medium than on MSG. Young shoots under slow growth were most suitable for mass rearing of S. picridis.     

Depression of Neuronal Protein Synthesis Initiation by Protein Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors

Abstract— Growth factors stimulate cellular protein synthesis, but the intracellular signaling mechanisms that regulate initiation of mRNA translation in neurons have not been clarified. A rate-limiting step in the initiation of protein synthesis is the formation of the ternary complex among GTP, eukaryotic initiation factor 2 (elF-2), and the initiator tRNA. Here we report that genistein, a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor, decreases tyrosine kinase activity and the content of phosphotyrosine proteins in cultured primary cortical neurons. Genistein inhibits protein synthesis by >80% in a dose-dependent manner (10–80 μg/ml) and concurrently decreases ternary complex formation by 60%. At the doses investigated, genistein depresses tyrosine kinase activity and concomitantly stimulates PKC activity. We propose that a protein tyrosine kinase participates in the initiation of protein synthesis in neurons, by affecting the activity of elF-2 directly or through a protein kinase cascade.     

Aurintricarboxylic Acid Protects Hippocampal Neurons from NMDA-and Ischemia-Induced Toxicity In Vivo

Abstract: The polymeric dye aurintricarboxylic acid (ATA) has been shown to protect various cell types from apoptotic cell death, reportedly through inhibition of a calcium-dependent endonuclease activity. Recent studies have indicated that there may be some commonalities among apoptosis, programmed cell death, and certain other forms of neuronal death. To begin to explore the possibility of common biochemical mechanisms underlying ischemia-or excitotoxin-induced neuronal death and apoptosis in vivo, gerbils or rats subjected to transient global ischemia or NMDA microinjection, respectively, received a simultaneous intracerebral infusion of ATA or vehicle. As a biochemical marker of neuronal death, spectrin proteolysis, which is mediated by activation of calpain I, was measured in hippocampus after 24 h. ATA treatment resulted in a profound reduction of both NMDA-and ischemia-induced spectrin proteolysis, consistent with the possibility of some common mechanism in apoptosis and other forms of neuronal death in vivo.     

Evidence from the anti-idiotypic network that the acetylcholine receptor is a rabies virus receptor.

We have developed idiotype-anti-idiotype monoclonal antibodies that provide evidence for rabies virus binding to the acetylcholine receptor (AChR). Hybridoma cell lines 7.12 and 7.25 resulted after fusion of NS-1 myeloma cells with spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with rabies virus strain CVS. Antibody 7.12 reacted with viral glycoprotein and neutralized virus infectivity in vivo. It also neutralized infectivity in vitro when PC12 cells, which express neuronal AChR, but not CER cells or neuroblastoma cells (clone N18), which have no AChR, were used. Antibody 7.25 reacted with nucleocapsid protein. Anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody B9 was produced from fusion of NS-1 cells with spleen cells from a mouse immunized with 7.12 Fab. In an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunoprecipitation, B9 reacted with 7.12, polyclonal rabies virus immune dog serum, and purified AChR. The binding of B9 to 7.12 and immune dog serum was inhibited by AChR. B9 also inhibited the binding of 7.12 to rabies virus both in vitro and in vivo. Indirect immunofluorescence revealed that B9 reacted at neuromuscular junctions of mouse tissue. B9 also reacted in indirect immunofluorescence with distinct neurons in mouse and monkey brain tissue as well as with PC12 cells. B9 staining of neuronal elements in brain tissue of rabies virus-infected mice was greatly reduced. Rabies virus inhibited the binding of B9 to PC12 cells. Mice immunized with B9 developed low-titer rabies virus-neutralizing antibody. These mice were protected from lethal intramuscular rabies virus challenge. In contrast, anti-idiotypic antibody raised against nucleocapsid antibody 7.25 did not react with AChR.

Cross-bridge scheme and force per cross-bridge state in skinned rabbit psoas muscle fibers.

The rate and association constants (kinetic constants) which comprise a seven state cross-bridge scheme were deduced by sinusoidal analysis in chemically skinned rabbit psoas muscle fibers at 20 degrees C, 200 mM ionic strength, and during maximal Ca2+ activation (pCa 4.54-4.82). The kinetic constants were then used to calculate the steady state probability of cross-bridges in each state as the function of MgATP, MgADP, and phosphate (Pi) concentrations. This calculation showed that 72% of available cross-bridges were (strongly) attached during our control activation (5 mM MgATP, 8 mM Pi), which agreed approximately with the stiffness ratio (active:rigor, 69 +/- 3%); active stiffness was measured during the control activation, and rigor stiffness after an induction of the rigor state. By assuming that isometric tension is a linear combination of probabilities of cross-bridges in each state, and by measuring tension as the function of MgATP, MgADP, and Pi concentrations, we deduced the force associated with each cross-bridge state. Data from the osmotic compression of muscle fibers by dextran T500 were used to deduce the force associated with one of the cross-bridge states. Our results show that force is highest in the AM*ADP.Pi state (A = actin, M = myosin). Since the state which leads into the AM*ADP.Pi state is the weakly attached AM.ADP.Pi state, we confirm that the force development occurs on Pi isomerization (AM.ADP.Pi --> AM*ADP.Pi). Our results also show that a minimal force change occurs with the release of Pi or MgADP, and that force declines gradually with ADP isomerization (AM*ADP -->AM.ADP), ATP isomerization (AM+ATP-->AM*ATP), and with cross-bridge detachment. Force of the AM state agreed well with force measured after induction of the rigor state, indicating that the AM state is a close approximation of the rigor state. The stiffness results obtained as functions of MgATP, MgADP, and Pi concentrations were generally consistent with the cross-bridge scheme.
