Diterpenoids from Wedelia prostrata and Their Derivatives and Cytotoxic Activities

One new ent‐kaurane diterpenoid, 11β,16α‐dihydroxy‐ent‐kauran‐19‐oic acid ( 1 ), together with eight known analogues 2 – 9 were isolated from the aerial parts of Wedelia prostrata. One of the acidic diterpenoids, kaurenoic acid ( 3 ), was converted to seven derivatives, 10 – 16 . All compounds were evaluated for their cytotoxic activity in vitro against human leukemia (K562), liver (HepG‐2), and stomach (SGC‐7901) cancer cell lines. Only four kaurenoic acid derivatives, 13 – 16 , with 15‐keto and substitutions at C(19) position, exhibited notable cytotoxic activities on these tumor cell lines with IC₅₀ value ranging from 0.05 to 3.71 μm . Compounds 10 – 12 , with oxime on C(15) showed moderate inhibitory effects and compounds 1 – 9 showed no cytotoxicities on them. Structure–activity relationships were also discussed based on the experimental data obtained. The known derivative, 15‐oxokaurenoic acid 4‐piperdin‐1‐ylbutyl ester ( 17 ), induced typical apoptotic cell death in colon SW480 cells upon evaluation of the apoptosis‐inducing activity by flow‐cytometric analysis.

笼养雌性果子狸同性数量对发情状态的影响及繁殖季节尿液雌激素浓度的变化

本研究试图揭示 (1)社会环境影响雌性果子狸 (Pagumalarvata)的交配日期 ,(2 )哺乳期母兽有雌二醇浓度升高的现象。通过检查是否排出交配栓并结合交配行为的发生与否确定开始交配的日期 ,使用放射免疫方法测定尿中雌二醇浓度。结果表明 (1)一雄两雌组中优势雌兽开始交配的日期显著早于劣势雌兽和单雌组雌兽 ,劣势雌兽和单雌组雌兽之间无差异 ;交配期优势雌兽尿液中雌二醇浓度明显高于劣势雌兽 ,而与单雌组中的雌兽无差异 ,但单雌组中雌兽尿液中雌二醇的浓度明显高于劣势雌兽雌二醇的浓度 ;(2 ) 5头母兽产后第二天雌二醇浓度开始上升 ,在第 5天时达到高峰 ,其中 4头母兽的雌二醇浓度共出现了两个峰值 ,其间隔为 16 75± 4 4 6 (4)天。上述结果说明 :(1)社会影响仅对优势雌性个体的繁殖有促进作用 ;(2 )哺乳期雌二醇水平的升高是季节性多次发情的基础。     

湖泊底泥磷释放影响因素显著性试验分析

通过底泥正交模拟实验分析认为,温度、溶解氧、pH值和水动力均是影响双龙湖底泥磷释放的显著因素,各因素水平间有显著差异;影响因素显著性排序从大到小依次为溶解氧、温度、pH值、水动力;提高双龙湖水体的溶解氧水平是降低底泥磷释放的有效手段.     

Eco-physiological responses of the declining population Spartina anglica to N and P fertilizer addition

Nitrogen and phosphorus are both important life elements. N, P and combined N-P fertilizers were added to the declining population Spartina anglica Hubbard in coastal China. Some growth parameters and eco-physiological responses of S. anglica to different fertilizer treatments (N, P and combined N-P fertilizer addition with high, medium and low levels, respectively) were measured. The fertilizer addition had a highly significant effect on the dynamics of its height-growth, number of leaves, number of roots and total biomass. Only N addition had a significant effect on leaf area and leaf thickness in all fertilizer treatments. On the dynamics of its height-growth, the effect of N addition was the most apparent, and the effect of N-P addition was not greater than those of N and P addition separately. The photosynthesis rate was enhanced and the yield was the highest with the highest N, the highest N-P and the medium P addition. The rates were higher than those of CK by 19.08 μmol·m^?2·s^?1, 15.47 μmol·m^?2·s^?1 and 11.23 μmol·m^?2·s^?1, respectively. The activity of SOD and POD increased with the treatments after freshwater stress for 14 days. Effects of medium N and P addition were significant for SOD activity. However, POD activity was significantly higher with the treatment of higher N and higher N-P addition. In a word, fertilizer addition improved the growth of the declining population S. anglica. The results indicated that the decline of S. anglica was correlated with the nutriment deficiency in soil, especially with the lack of N.     

多不饱和脂肪酸对微生物低温适应性的影响

地球生物圈75%以上的环境温度常年低于5℃,在这种低温环境中栖息着多种适应低温的微生物。在长期进化过程中低温微生物从细胞到分子水平形成一套独特的低温环境适应机制,而通过增加细胞膜膜脂中多不饱和脂肪酸含量来维持低温条件下最佳的细胞膜流动性是其中的一种。从多不饱和脂肪酸对微生物低温生长、细胞膜流动性细胞膜蛋白的组成和表达水平的影响来探讨多不饱和脂肪酸与微生物低温适应性的关系,总结多不饱和脂肪酸低温合成调节机制的研究进展,为相关的基础和应用开发研究提供参考。
