植物分枝模型

从生物体总是最有效地利用物质的思想出发,对植物分枝形状建立了一个数学模型,该模型认为,当主干与侧枝的截面积之间存在类似平行四边形法则的关系时,分枝的体积取极小值。该模型揭示植物分枝形态不仅符合力学平衡的原则,在进化上也有显著生物学意义。     

中国人胃癌染色体17q21区域基因遗传不稳定性研究

To investigate microsatellite instability (MSI) and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) of locus D17S396, D17S579 and D17S855, and their effect on the expression of nm23H1 and BRCA1 of gastric cancer, which would provide experimental basis for clinical treatment and prognosis analysis of gastric cancer. DNA was extracted from paraffin-embedded materials. Polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) was used to analyze MSI and LOH. Expression of nm23H, and BRCA1 was detected by Envision immuno-histochemistry and Leica-Qwin computer imaging techniques. In the forty cases of gastric cancer, the frequency of MSI, LOH and nm23H1 protein were 20.00%, 17.50% and 55.00% respectively at locus D17S396, while at locus D17S579, the frequency of MSI, LOH and BRCA1 protein were 22.50%, 15.00% and 37.50% respectively; at locus D17S855, the frequency of MSI, LOH and BRCA1 of thirty-seven cases were 18.92%, 18.92%, 37.84% respectively. In tumor node metastasis (TNM) staging, at locus D17S396, D17S579 and D17S855, MSI in stages I + II appeared more frequently than that in stages III + IV, while LOH appeared the contrary tendency. In the group of metastasis of gastric cancer, MSI had a less frequency (5.00%) than that with no metastasis (35.00%, P < 0.05) at locus D17S396, but LOH appeared more frequently (30.00%) than that with no metastasis (5.00%, P < 0.05). At locus D17S579, MSI had an increasing tendency with the degree of tumor differentiation (50.00% in high differentiation cases, 20.00% in middle differentiation cases, and 0% in low differentiation cases, P < 0.05). The frequency of nm23H1 and BRCA1 protein in stages TNM I + II was higher than that in stages TNM III + IV; and that in higher differentiation cases was higher than in poor differentiation cases. The frequency of nm23H1 protein in the group of metastasis (30.00%) was less than that with no metastasis significantly (80.00%, P<0.01). The frequency of nm23H1 protein in the group positive to MSI (87.50%) was higher than that in the group negative to MSI (46.88%, P < 0.05). However, nm23H1 protein in group positive to LOH (14.29%) was lower than that in the group negative to LOH (63.64%, P < 0.05). The frequency of BRCA1 protein in the group positive to MSI (66.67%) was more than that in the group negative to MSI (29.03%, P < 0.05). The results of experiments indicate that MSI and LOH may separately control the development of sporadic colon cancer with different pathways. MSI may be an early period molecule marker for sporadic colon cancer, enhanced expression of nm23H1 protein can effectively inhibit colon cancer metastasis and improve prognosis of sporadic colon cancer patients. By comparison, LOH mostly arises in the late period of sporadic colon cancer and endows a high aggressive and poor prognostic phenotype. nm23H1 protein could effectively restrain gastric cancer metastasis and development; and BRCA1 protein could restain tumor from becoming lower differentiation.     

生物学特殊字的计算机输入

生物学特殊字是指在计算机中用输入法(如五笔输入法、智能ABC等)不能输入的字。由于计算机输入法的字库容量有限。它不可能包含所有的字,特别是各学科的专业字,生物学学科的字尤为突出。由于这些字在其字库中没有,所以,在编辑生物学教案、生物学试卷和生物学论文等生物学文档时,这些特殊字必须要用特殊的方法才能输入(注：本文所涉及的操作系统是Windows 98,输入法是王码五笔形输入法86版。     

一个可用于复杂大群体的可视化系谱绘制和分析软件

对于在遗传研究和家系研究中大的系谱结构图还很难分析。系谱的绘制通常是遗传性状的分析研究的第一步。系图可以反映整个群体的结构、每个个体之间的相互关系以及基因流的走向,便于理解遗传性状的本质。因为所用家系数目的增大和复杂性的增加,绘制1个清晰的系谱有时变得十分困难。因此开发了1种名为Pedigraph软件,可以解决这个问题。Pedigraph能够完成对于大的复杂的群体的系谱绘制工作,并能进行相应的系谱分析。初步的测试表明这个软件在研究动植物的遗传育种中是1个有用的工具,同时它也可以用于人类的群体和历史等方面的研究。

宝石能谱CT诊断腹腔自体异位脾种植1例并文献复习

目的:探讨宝石能谱CT对腹腔自体异位脾种植的诊断价值,并对其临床特点和影像表现进行文献复习。方法:对一例脾外伤患者行宝石能谱CT扫描,观察肿瘤强化模式及能谱曲线表现。结果:肝右叶包膜外、纵横裂区、脾区见单发或簇状多发富血供结节,大小0.64×1.14 cm~4.94×1.81 cm,动脉期呈"花斑状"强化,门静脉期、延迟期对比剂廓清程度趋于一致。能谱曲线示肝右叶包膜外、纵横裂区、脾区结节曲线斜率及走行趋势近似相同。结论:宝石CT能谱曲线斜率有助于腹腔自体异位脾种植诊断。     

应用计算机识别蛋白质功能

1.研究背景20世纪90年代以来,基因组研究取得了巨大成功。到目前为止,人们已完成20多种生物的基因组全序列分析,在近2年内,还将有不少于50种生物的基因组全序列测定完成。现在,蛋白质组的研究也已全面展开,已建立免疫共沉淀、ＤＮＡ芯片杂交、酵母双杂交、噬菌体展示等多种蛋白质功能检测技术,并鉴定出许多蛋白质的功能,如30%酵母蛋白质的功能已用这些方法鉴别。但这些方法所需成本较高、周期较长、获得的结果也不全面,影响着进一步的研究[1]。近年来,随着互联网的快速发展,生物信息学展现了勃勃生机。其重要研究领域之一就是蛋白质功能识别…
