Characterization of Borrelia Species Isolated from Ixodid Ticks,Ixodes ovatus

Thirty-two Borrelia isolates were obtained from the adult stage of ixodid ticks, Ixodes ovatus, collected in various localities in Japan. Borrelial isolates were cultivated and analyzed by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, with monoclonal antibodies, by pulsed field gel electrophoresis, and by genomic Southern hybridization. All borrelial isolates showed similar protein profiles and monoclonal antibody reactivities, while plasmid profiles were rather diverse. Genomic hybridization using rRNA gene probes demonstrated the genetic similarities of those isolates. We found no significant differences among the borrelial isolates tested, and the restriction fragment length polymorphism patterns of I. ovatus isolates were quite distinct from those of borrelial strains associated with Lyme disease. Therefore, the isolates of Borrelia obtained from I. ovatus were thought to fall into different genospecies.     

Comparison between cellulose and amylose tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) chiral stationary phases for enantiomeric separation of 17 amidotetralins

Direct enantiomeric separations of 17 chiral amidotetralins by means of high performance liquid chromatography were performed on stationary phases composed of tris(3,5-dimethylphenylcarbamate) derivatives of cellulose and amylose, coated on silica gel. The enantiomers of 15 out of 17 amidotetralins were resolved with a resolution of more than 1.5 by at least one of the chiral stationary phases. The stationary phases showed complementary results with regard to the separation of the amidotetralins, that is, pairs that did not separate on the cellulose-type column were well separated on the amylose-type column, and vice versa. There was no significant correlation between the chromatographic properties of the chiral stationary phases. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

摘要 目的：探讨重组牛碱性成纤维细胞生长因子（r-bFGF）眼用凝胶在翼状胬肉手术中的临床应用价值。方法：按照随机数字表法,将我院2019年1月~2020年12月期间收治的100例翼状胬肉手术患者分为对照组（n=50）和研究组（n=50）。手术方式均采用翼状胬肉切除联合结膜瓣转移术,对照组术中接受常规处理,研究组在对照组的基础上结合r-bFGF眼用凝胶。对比两组手术效果、眼表相关指标、视力、眼压、不良反应和并发症发生率。结果：两组术后3个月视觉疼痛模拟评分（VAS）、眼表疾病指数（OSDI）下降,泪膜破裂时间（BUT）、基础泪液分泌试验（SIT）升高（P<0.05）,研究组术后3个月VAS、OSDI低于对照组,BUT、SIT高于对照组（P<0.05）。两组术后3个月视力升高,眼压下降（P<0.05）,研究组术后3个月视力高于对照组,眼压低于对照组（P<0.05）。两组不良反应发生率比较无差异（P>0.05）。研究组的临床治愈率较对照组高（P<0.05）。研究组的并发症发生率低于对照组（P<0.05）。结论：r-bFGF眼用凝胶用于翼状胬肉手术中,可减少翼状胬肉患者的术后痛苦,改善眼角、视力和眼压症状,获得更好的临床治愈率。     

Proteomics in Drosophila melanogaster.

To be able to understand cellular mechanisms, we require fully integrated data sets combining information about gene expression, protein expression, post-translational modification states, sub-cellular location and complex formation. Proteomics is a very powerful technique that can be applied to interrogate changes at the protein level. Studying this effectively requires specialised facilities within research institutes. Here, we describe the setting up and operation of such a facility, providing a resource for the Arabidopsis and Drosophila research communities.     

Karyotyping by PFGE of clinical isolates of Sporothrix schenckii

Abstract From October 1991 to December 1992 we had eight patients with sporotrichosis at Tsukuba University Hospital in Japan. With 8 strains isolated from these patients, PFGE (pulsed-field gel electrophoresis) analyses were carried out to examine whether the karyotype of S. schenckii is distinguished by our method and whether this molecular approach is a useful means of biotyping of S. schenckii strains. Chromosomes were separated by contour-clamped homogeneous electric field (CHEF) gel electrophoresis. The strains had six to eight chromosomes and a total genome size was approx. 28 Mbp. Although these karyotypes of all the isolates looked closely similar to each other, they were grouped into three types.     

The effective diffusion coefficient and the distribution constant for small molecules in calcium-alginate gel beads

The effective diffusion coefficient, D(e), and the distribution constant, K(i), for selected mono- and disaccharides and organic acids were determined in homogeneous calcium-alginate gel with and without entrapped bacteria. Results were obtained from transient concentration changes in well-stirred solutions of limited volume, in which the gel beads were suspended. The effective diffusioncoefficients and the distribution constants were estimated by fitting mathematical model predictions to the experimental data using a nonlinear model fitting program (MODFIT). Both single solute diffusion and multiple solute diffusion were performed. A small positive effect was obtained onthe values of D(e) for the system of multiple solute diffusion; however, the values of K(i) were not significantly influenced. For the nine solutes tested, D(e) for 2% Ca-alginate gel beads was found to be approximately 85% of the diffusivity measured in water. The effects on D(e) and K(i), for lactose and lactic acid were determined for variations of alginate concentration, pH, temperature, and biomass content in the beads. D(e) decreased linearly for both lactose and lactic acid with increasing cell concentration in the Ca-alginate gel. K(i), was constant for both lactose and lactic acid with increasing cell concentration. D(e) was significantly lower at pH 4.5 than at pH 5.5 and 6.5 for both lactose and lactic acid. Furthermore, D(e) seemed to decrease with increased alginate concentration in the range of 1% to 4%. The diffusion rate increased with increasing temperature, and the activation energy for the diffusion process for both lactose and lactic acid was constant in the temperature range tested.

Green fluorescent protein as a signal for protein-protein interactions.

Green fluorescent protein (GFP) is autofluorescent. This property has made GFP useful in monitoring in vivo activities such as gene expression and protein localization. We find that GFP can be used in vitro to reveal and characterize protein-protein interactions. The interaction between the S-peptide and S-protein fragments of ribonuclease A was chosen as a model system. GFP-tagged S-peptide was produced, and the interaction of this fusion protein with S-protein was analyzed by two distinct methods: fluorescence gel retardation and fluorescence polarization. The fluorescence gel retardation assay is a rapid method to demonstrate the existence of a protein-protein interaction and to estimate the dissociation constant (Kd) of the resulting complex. The fluorescence polarization assay is an accurate method to evaluate Kd in a specified homogeneous solution and can be adapted for the high-throughput screening of protein or peptide libraries. These two methods are powerful new tools to probe protein-protein interactions.
