转化细胞及腹水癌细胞对生长调节因子敏感性的研究

 本文~3H-TdR参入细胞DNA为指标研究了EGF等生长调节因子对小鼠腹水癌细胞DNA合成的影响,发现不同癌细胞对EGF等生长因子的敏感性有所差异,考虑到这也许与肿瘤细胞自身特性如恶性度有关。为了进一步探讨恶性度与这一敏感性是否相关,我们观察并比较了C_3H10T1/2CL_8(一种来源于鼠胚的正常成纤维细胞,简称NC_3H_(10)及转化的C_3H_(10)T1/2CL_8(用~3H-TdR转化的上述细胞,简称TC_3H_(10))对EGF等生长因子的敏感性。实验证明,细胞恶性转化后,对EGF的敏感性明显降低,~3H-TdR参入率降至原先的1/4以下。用DBcAMP作用于NC_3H_(10)和TC_3H_(10)均能抑制~3H-TdR参入DNA并可抑制EGF诱导的~3H-TdR参入作用。因此,我们认为,有关物理的致癌因素如放射性同位素,像生物、化学的致癌因素一样,亦能引起其转化细胞对外源性生长调节因子敏感性的改变。     

花粉提取物对带瘤小鼠胸腺T细胞数量变动的影响

本文报道用~3H-TdR掺入法研究花粉提取物对带瘤小鼠胸腺T细胞在有丝分裂原作用下增殖反应的影响。并用酵母多糖混合玫瑰花形成试验,观察其胸腺细胞中T、Tr和T_μ细胞数量变动的影响。实验结果表明:带瘤小鼠胸腺细胞的增殖反应均低于正常小鼠,经花粉提取物灌胃后,其胸腺细胞的增殖反应均有不同程度提高;T、Tr及T_μ细胞数均比对照组升高。说明花粉提取物具有促进免疫细胞活性的作用。     

大蒜对环磷酰胺诱发的小鼠骨髓细胞微核和姊妹染色单体交换的保护作用

本文以小鼠骨髓嗜多染红细胞的微核率和小鼠骨髓细胞姊妹染色单体交换(SCE)率两个指标,测定大蒜匀浆滤液(GJ)对环磷酰胺(CP)诱变作用的影响。结果表明,用GJ灌胃处理小鼠能降低CP(30mg/kg)诱发的微核率,差异极显著(P<0.01)。用GJ处理小鼠,除了CP高剂量(30mg/kg)外,CP中和低剂量(3mg/kg和0.3mg/kg)所诱发的SCE率均受到抑制,有显著性差异(P<0.05)。表明大蒜有较强的抗诱变能力,具修复染色体损伤和DNA错误复制的功能。     

刺激隐神经中C类纤维诱发的小脑浦肯野细胞简单...

Simple spike of cerebellar Purkinje cells (PC-SS) was recorded with microelectrode. In the NCCVF (normalized cross-covariance function) histogram, spontaneous PC-SS does not show obvious peak. When the saphenous nerve is stimulated at lower intensities, which elicits the A-fiber input only, the discharge response (A-CED) consists of an early component with a latency of 16.7 +/- 0.9 ms and a late component with a latency of 270.8 +/- 12.8 ms. After A-fibers are blocked selectively by polarizing current, the stimulation at a suprathreshold strength for C-fiber evokes a characteristic response (C-CED) with a latency of 142.4 +/- 4.3 ms. However, the C-CED can not be evoked by the inputs of A- and C-fiber simultaneously. In NPSDF histogram, the spontaneous activities of PC-SS can be divided into two groups, the high and the low peak group. The high peak group (n = 15) has a peak energy value of 15.7 +/- 4.7 x 10(-3) and peak frequency of 4.07 +/- 1.69 Hz. A-fiber input causes an increase of the peak value, while C-fiber input causes a decrease. The low peak group (n = 16) has a peak energy value 8.4 +/- 1.4 x 10(-3) and peak frequency of 3.67 +/- 2.90 Hz. Both A-fiber and C-fiber inputs cause an increase of the peak value, but the effect of A-fiber input was more prominent. The results show that the pure C-fiber input can reach the cerebellar PC and elicit characteristic simple spike response.     

植物细胞在离体培养条件下的决定问题

“决定”(Determination)这一术语来自动物胚胎发育生物学,意指胚胎某一区域的组织或细胞只能向某一特定方向分化的发育状态。决定与否以及决定的程度必须用离体培养或异位移植的方法来测定。“决定”作为发育生物学上的一种现象,同样存在于高等植物中,如茎生长点的成花决定和
