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.

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     

伴刀豆蛋白A与活细胞膜作用的图像分析和多元统计

用图像分析与多元统计研究伴刀豆蛋白A(ConA)与活巨噬细胞膜受体结合时膜变形性随作用时间和ConA浓度的定量变化。结果表明膜面积增大,增大速率与ConA速度呈正相关。ConA浓度加大,膜园形系数减小,变形性增加,此等变化反应了细胞的活化。     

高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为

本文对高胆固醇血症家兔红细胞在交、直流电场中的电泳行为进行了多指标测定,结果显示,高脂组与正常组相比红细胞聚集能力增强,变形能力及膜流动性下降,表明高脂血症可能较易导致血栓形成。中药有效成分8501有对抗高脂引起的红细胞上述改变的作用,提示8501可能对血栓和动脉粥样硬化斑块形成有防治作用。
