抗人CD8单抗κ轻链可变区基因的克隆和序列测定

OK T8杂交瘤细胞株从American typecuhure collection(ATCC)获得,产生抗人CD8分子的单克隆抗体IgG2a(γ2a,κ),为了对这一鼠源性单抗进行基因工程改造,我们首先克隆了该单抗的κ轻链可变区基因,并测定了其碱基序列,现将结果报道如下: 通过计算机查找并分析了已发表的几十株抗体的轻链可变区基因序列,经比较其5’端保守序列和J区序列,设计了一对DNA引物:GTGAATTCATGGACATCCAGATGACCCA-     

生态因子对中药甘草质量影响的初步研究

甘草是一种常用中药,由于具有“调和诸药”之功效而成为方剂中最常用的一味药。古有“十方九草”之说,可见对甘草的需求量之大;目前,对甘草的需求不仅仅限于医药界,在食品、轻工、畜牧等行业也有广泛的应用。然而,由于长期滥采、滥挖,只挖不种,使得甘草的蕴藏量急剧下降,有些地区的甘草资源濒临枯竭。例如,东北松嫩平原,原是我国“东草”商品的主产区之一,并大量出口国外,     

人α1/158Ⅴ型(α1c型)干扰素基因在大肠杆菌中的表达及其产物的初步纯化

采用DNA聚合酶链反应(PCR)技术,将本实验室从中国人胎肝细胞染色体DNA中发现和分离的IFN-α1/158V基因的原始克隆,改造成适于进行非融合蛋白原核表达的结构形式,并在大肠杆菌中获得高效表达。测得重组IFN-α1/158V的抗病毒活性为1.9×10~7单位/升菌液。随后又采用以单克隆抗体亲和层析为主的纯化流程对表达产物进行初步纯化,获得了在SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳上呈现单一条带的纯化产物。     

利用带有原核增强子样序列的新型载体在大肠杆菌中高效表达人α肿瘤坏死因子

将去除信号肽的人肿瘤坏死因子-α(Tumor necrosis factor-α,TNF-α)cDNA插入到带有原核增强子样序列Px的新型表达载体pBV320中,使TNF cDNA 5′端直接置于大肠杆菌trp启动子下游,采用37℃恒温培养,使TNF在大肠杆菌中获得了高效表达,表达活性达1.35(±0.17)×10~6U/L菌液。表达的TNF-α对L929细胞的毒性作用可被抗人肿瘤坏死因子-α的单克隆抗体所中和。表达菌裂解液作SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳,显示有一条分子量与TNF分子量吻合、约为17000道尔顿的蛋白带。利用DEAE-Sepharose阴离子交换层析及Sephacryl S-200凝胶过滤对上述重组人TNF-α进行纯化,获得电泳纯产品,比活性为1.48×10~6U/mg。     

心房钠泵因子对颈动脉窦压力感受器反射的易化作用

Effects of atriopeptin II (APII) on the carotid sinus baroreflex in anesthetized rats and on the sinus nerve afferent activity in the anesthetized rabbits were investigated. The results were as follows: (1) By perfusing the isolated left carotid sinus with APII (1 microgram/ml) in anesthetized rats (n = 10), the threshold pressure (TP) of the carotid baroreflex did not show any change, while the equilibrium pressure (EP), the saturation pressure (SP) and the operating range (OR) were decreased from 101 +/- 2.8 to 95 +/- 2.0 mmHg (P less than 0.05), 202 +/- 5.2 to 168 +/- 6.1 mmHg (P less than 0.001) and 128 +/- 5.5 to 93 +/- 6.3 mmHg (P less than 0.001), respectively. The function curve of the baroreflex was shifted to the left and downward with a peak slope (PS) increased during perfusing with APII. In contrast, by perfusing the carotid sinus with sodium nitroprusside (NP, 0.5 micrograms/ml), TP and EP remained unchanged, whereas SP and OR were increased from 188 +/- 6.4 to 218 +/- 6.0 mmHg (n = 6, P less than 0.01) and from 107 +/- 6.9 to 132 +/- 7.6 mmHg (P less than 0.05), respectively. The function curve of the baroreflex and its PS were not affected by NP. The sinus nerve afferent activity was quite stable with the perfusion of carotid sinus at constant intrasinus pressure (ISP) in the rabbits (n = 6) and increased during the elevation of ISP.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

α—人心房钠尿因子对离体豚鼠心肌收缩力和动作电位...

The effect of alpha-hANF on contractile force and action potential duration (APD) of isolated myocardium in guinea pig was investigated. At the level of 20 nmol/L and 40 nmol/L alpha-hANF, the contraction amplitude and rate of contraction phase decreased to a remarkable extent. And at 40 nmol/L, APDs were shortened significantly 20 min after alpha-hANF. The results suggest that there exists a direct inhibitory effect of alpha-hANF on myocardial contractile force and action potential duration.

烟草愈伤组织器官发生过程中外源激素的作用

近年来,利用愈伤组织系统在与器官发生有关的形态学、生理学和生物化学研究方面已经取得了一些进展(Thorpe 1980,刘涤 1983)。对烟草愈伤组织系统的研究明确了外源激素对器官发生类型的调节作用(Skoog 1971,Engelke等1973,刘涤等1980)。但是,这些研究仅考虑到外源激素的作用,而对器官发生过程中的其它变化并不了解。最近,Kamada和Harada(1981)比较了胡萝卜体细胞胚发育过程中内源IAA和ABA含量的变化,Noma等(1982)证实形成胚的和不形成胚的细胞间GA_3含
