一种新的内源性钠泵抑制因子前海葱苷原A样物质在牛体内的分布

为了建立一种蟾蜍二烯羟酸内酯（ｂｕｆａｄｉｅｎｏｌｉｄｅｓ）前海葱苷原Ａ免疫方法，并对哺乳动物体内的前海葱苷原Ａ样物质进行检测，我们制备了兔和羊前海葱苷原Ａ抗体。利用ＥＬＩＳＡ法检测了一种新的内源性钠泵抑制因子前海葱苷原Ａ样物质在牛的肾上腺、丘脑、心脏、肾脏、肝脏、小脑、骨骼肌和血液中的分布。研究发现这种前海葱苷原Ａ样物质在肾上腺及下丘脑的含量高于其它腺体组织，其具有抑制人红细胞８６Ｒｂ摄取的特性，可与前海葱苷原Ａ抗体发生免疫交叉反应，但几乎不与哇巴因抗体交叉反应，是一种新的类固醇激素     

胎儿"告诉"母亲自己将要降生

是什么因素决定了孕妇即将分娩 ?是胎儿身体的大小 ,还是某种生物活性物质 ?决定因素来自胎儿还是来自母亲 ?长久以来 ,这个悬而未决的问题一直困扰着生殖生理学家们。解决了这一问题就可能为阻止早产发生提供有效的手段。最近研究表明 ,肺泡中的表面活性物质A(SP A)介导了决定     

苦绳的一个新甾体成分

从苦绳(Dregea sinensis Hemsl.),和分出一新的甾体成分,Dresigenin A(I),经化学反应及光谱分析证明其结构为12-O-乙酰基-20-O-(2-甲基丁酰基)二氢肉珊瑚甙元[12-O-acetyl-20-O-(2-methylbutyryl)dihydrosarcostin]。     

人参果胶中蛋白质与多糖关系的研究

从人参（Panax ginseng)热水根取物中,分离出两个蛋白多糖级份（PA,PB）,琼脂糖4B凝胶柱层析结果表明,二者均为单一分布峰,通过氨基酸分析,气相色谱分析,β-消去反应,部分酸水解,果胶酶水解,聚丙烯酰胺凝胶圆盘电泳及等电聚焦电泳等生化分析,确定PA,PB均含有苏氨酸与多糖中糖残基以－O－糖甙键相连的共价结合蛋白质;另外PB中尚存在另一种形式蛋白质,其中精氨酸等碱性氨基酸丰富（占PB中蛋白质59．9％）,圆盘电泳结果表明：这部分蛋白质与多糖中的半乳糖醛酸残基靠静电力结合,等电点为9．1。     

热应激时大鼠肺组织中β—肾上腺素受体的变化与膜磷...

To explore the relationship between the change of beta-adrenoceptor and the metabolism of phospholipids in lung tissue from acute heat stressed rats, the Bmax of beta-adrenoceptors, the activity of phospholipase A2 (PLA2), the content of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS), and membrane fluidity in lung tissue of normal and heat stressed rats were investigated. The relevant parameter values mentioned above were 479 +/- 94 fmol/mg protein, 78.5 +/- 8.2 U, 53.5 +/- 1.7 mg/g.wet. w. and 425.1 +/- 68.1 micrograms/g.wet. w. respectively. Whereas in the heat stressed rats with rectal temperature raised to 42 degrees C for 15 min, the Bmax of beta-adrenoceptor was decreased by 43% (P less than 0.01), the activity of PLA2 increased by 83% (P less than 0.01), the contents of PC and PS decreased by 50% and 47% (P less than 0.01) respectively. A lower membrane fluidity in lung tissue for heat stressed rats was also demonstrated. The results suggest that the decreased binding sites of beta-adrenoceptor in lung tissue of rat during hyperthermia may be contributed to the activation of PLA2, which then accelerated the catabolism of phospholipids such as PC and PS in the cell plasma membrane, with a consequent alteration of membrane fluidity.
