Expedient syntheses of neoglycoproteins using phase transfer catalysis and reductive amination as key reactions

Starting from peracetylated chloro- or bromo-glycosyl donors ofN-acetylneurmainic acid,N-acetylglucosamine, glucose and lactose, the correspondingp-formylphenyl glycosides were synthesized stereospecifically under phase transfer catalysed conditions at room temperature in yields of 38–67%. After Zemplén de-O-acetylation, the formyl groups were directly and chemoselectively coupled to the lysine residues of bovine serum albumin by reductive amination using sodium cyanoborohydride. The conjugation reactions were followed as a function of time and under a series of different molar ratios of the reactants to provide glycoconjugates of varying degree of antigenicities. Thus, carbohydrate protein conjugates were made readily available using essentially two key reactions.Presented in part at the 15th International Carbohydrate Symposium, Yokohama, Japan, August 12–17, 1990.     

北京东郊作物土壤系统中重金属的迁移、分布、积累

 本文研究了北京东郊污灌区重金属在作物—土壤中的迁移、分布、积累规律,证实本区蔬菜中汞含量比粮食作物约大3—15倍,比水果约大6—200倍。麦粒、糙米中的Cu、Hg、Cd、Pb、Ni的含量与土壤含量相关性不显著。架豆中重金属含量与土壤中重金属含量的相关性,只有Zn,Pb达显著水平。白菜土有机质含量与重金属含量相关性达显著水平,而白菜的重金属含量与土壤的重金属含量相关性却不显著。说明除了土壤中重金属的总量外,有效态含量的多少,是影响本区作物吸收积累重金属的主要因素。 本区施污泥的土壤和生长的作物Cd／Zn大部小于1%、盆栽试验证明：施用本区污泥污水对水稻生长发育的影响比施污泥灌清水的影响大些,因此,施用含重金属污泥时,最好不要超过5000斤／亩。大田和室内模拟试验证明：重金属从土壤中迁移到植物,由植物带走输出的量极少,其中以带走输出的Hg、Cd,As相对较多,带走输出的Pb、Cr相对的少些。     

B淋巴细胞在多向造血祖细胞生长中的地位

小鼠骨髓细胞在体外培养中,加入用流式自由电泳法分离所得的高纯度正常B淋巴细胞,可使多向祖细胞(CFU-mix)集落增加至5倍;加入小鼠B淋巴瘤细胞株的条件培基(M_(12.4.1)-CM)时,CFU-mix数也可增加至4倍。单集落形态学分析结果表明M_(12.4.1)-CM可加强CFU-GEMm及p-BFU-E等早期造血祖细胞的增殖与分化。小鼠高纯度B细胞样品在体外培养中加入1000 rad照射的骨髓细胞可出现CFU-mix集落,如果再加入适量的小鼠肺条件培基,则CFU-mix数量比对照大15倍,其集落性质为CFU-GEMm,GMm及p-BFU-E。在此培养中加不同稀释度抗小鼠IgM血清,结果CFU-mix的产率与抗IgM血清的浓度成直线反比关系,当加入1:10抗小鼠IgM血清时,CFU-mix为0。作者假设在一定培养条件下,IgM阳性的部分B细胞可返祖转化为CFU-mix。     

Genome type analysis of adenovirus type 4 isolates, recently obtained from clinically different syndromes in some areas in Japan

DNA cleavage analyses with EcoRI, HindIII and BamHI were carried out to investigate genome types of recent Ad 4 isolates obtained from acute respiratory disease (8 strains), and ocular disease (11 strains) in Japan. DNA cleavage patterns of all 19 isolates studied were identical regardless of whether they were recovered from respiratory tract or conjunctiva, but were distinct from that of the prototype strain.     

Dynorphin-A-(1–13) antagonizes morphine analgesia in the brain and potentiates morphine analgesia in the spinal cord

Intrathecal injection of subanalgesic doses of morphine (7.5 nmol) and dynorphin-A-(1–13) (1.25 nmol) in combination resulted in a marked analgesic effect as assessed by tail flick latency in the rat. The analgesic effect of the composite dynorphin/morphine was dose-dependent in serial dilutions so that a composition of 1/8 of the analgesic dose of dynorphin and 1/3 that of morphine produced an analgesic effect equipotent to full dose of either drug applied separately. The analgesic effect induced by dynorphin/morphine mixture was not accompanied by motor dysfunction and was easily reversed by a small dose (0.5 mg/kg) of naloxone. Contrary to the augmentatory effect of dynorphin on morphine analgesia in the spinal cord, intracerevroventricular (ICV) injection of 20 nmol of dynorphin-A-(1–13) exhibited a marked antagonistic effect on the analgesia produced by morphine (120 nmol, ICV). The theoretical considerations and practical implications of the differential interactions between dynorphin-A-(1–13) and morphine in the brain versus spinal cord are discussed.     

Biofeedback control of migraine headaches: A comparison of two approaches

In order to assess the relative effectiveness of finger warming and temporal blood volume pulse reduction biofeedback in the treatment of migraine, 22 female migraine patients were assigned to one of three experimental conditions: temporal artery constriction feedback, finger temperature feedback, or waiting list. Biofeedback training consisted of 12 sessions over a 6-week period. All patients completed 5 weeks of daily self-monitoring of headache activity (frequency, duration, and intensity) and medication before and after treatment. Treatment credibility was assessed at the end of Sessions 1, 6, and 12. Results showed that temporal constriction and finger temperature biofeedback were equally effective in controlling migraine headaches and produced greater benefits than the waiting list condition. Power analyses indicated that very large sample sizes would have been required to detect any significant differences between the two treatment groups. No significant relationships were found between levels of therapeutic gains and levels of thermal or blood volume pulse self-regulation skills. Likewise, treatment outcome was not found to be related to treatment credibility. Further analyses revealed that changes in headache activity and medication were associated with changes in vasomotor variability. Because blood volume pulse variability was not significantly affected by biofeedback training, questions about its role in the therapeutic mechanism are raised.This research was supported in part by grants from the Quebec Ministry of Education and the Quebec Ministery of Social Affairs to the first author, and an award from the Medical Research Council of Canada to the second author.

Vegetation succession on the dunes near Oostvoorne,The Netherlands,since 1934, interpreted from air photographs and vegetation maps

The vegetation succession on the dunes near Oostvoorne, The Netherlands has been followed by means of a novel combination of repeated large-scale vegetation mapping and air photograph interpretation. Vegetation units have been discerned on the formation level because these could be distinguished fairly easily on the photographs and because the rates of change are appropriate to the time interval chosen. Nineteen formations were distinguished. Five 1:6250 maps were constructed, reflecting the formation pattern in 1934, 1943, 1959, 1972 and 1980. An overlay with 2736 grid points at 25 m field distance was used to quantify changes in the formation pattern.The results suggest a pronounced multiple pathway succession with nevertheless three principal trajectories of succession from pioneer to woodland vegetation. The outer dunes, which have originated since 1910, are distinct in successional characteristics from the inner dunes, which already existed but were released from heavy grazing pressure in 1910. The rate of change in the outer dunes was high in the beginning and is slowly decreasing eversince. In the inner dunes it went the other way around. Through visual extrapolation the likely formation patterns in 1910 and in 2000 were estimated.Transition frequencies proved highly variable for most formations. Moreover, strong spatial dependence was found. Limitations in the use of Markov models in cases of long-term succession in heterogeneous environments are discussed.Nomenclature follows the same sources as in van der Maarel et al.
