中国新记录种——摩拉维采真藓(新拟)

该文首次报道了摩拉维采真藓(新拟)在中国的分布。研究表明:(1)摩拉维采真藓的主要识别特征为:叶常聚集在茎顶成莲座状,叶倒卵状披针形至匙形,具长毛尖,具分化边缘,中肋消失于叶尖下,叶细胞长菱形至六边形,叶腋处着生大量单列细胞构成的分枝或不分枝的丝状芽胞。(2)通过对摩拉维采真藓的命名和系统位置的讨论,确认该种是真藓属细叶真藓组的有效种。(3)摩拉维采真藓与近缘种细叶真藓和幽美真藓有诸多相似特征:莲座状的茎顶、有分化边和菱形至六边形中上部细胞的倒卵形叶,但该种以具有大量叶腋生丝状芽胞和叶中肋不及顶等特征区别于细叶真藓的无腋生芽胞、叶中肋突出叶尖成长芒状,以具有叶湿时平展、干时卷曲和叶腋有芽胞等特征区别于幽美真藓的叶湿时内凹、干时紧贴于茎和无腋生芽胞;拟三列真藓、圆叶真藓和灰黄真藓的部分种群都曾报道有与摩拉维采真藓相似的腋生丝状芽胞,但摩拉维采真藓的假根集生于植株基部、叶有狭分化边、叶缘平直、中肋消失于叶尖下而区别于拟三列真藓的茎中下部密被假根、叶有宽分化边、叶缘背卷、中肋及顶或短出,摩拉维采真藓有分化边和长毛尖的倒卵状披针形区别于圆叶真藓叶有无分化边和圆钝叶尖的卵圆形叶,区别于灰黄真藓有中肋及顶和短尖的卵状披针形叶;柔叶真藓有与摩拉维采真藓相似、中肋不及顶的叶,但无芽胞而易与新记录种区分。(4)该种在北温带有较广泛分布,形成欧洲-北亚-中亚-西亚和北美两个主要分布区;作者在四川和新疆等地的发现可以推测摩拉维采真藓在中国可能有更广泛的分布。

拉萨地区林周盆地设兴组上部(古近系)年代研究的新进展及意义

拉萨地区林周盆地典中那玛剖面设兴组上部新发现的孢粉组合以落叶、阔叶植物为主体,主要为桦科的Alnipollenites,Betulaepollenites,Carpiniptes,山毛榉科的Quercoidites,胡桃科的Juglanspollenites,榆科的Ulmipollenites,椴科的Tiliapollenites等,孢粉化石多为古近纪常见分子,未发现白垩纪的特征分子。古近纪早期大量出现的三孔沟,网面三孔沟等花粉少量出现;孢粉组合更接近于古近纪中晚期的面貌,其时代可能属于晚始新世。因此,设兴组上部的年代可能是始新世晚期。由此推论,设兴组和林子宗群之间的角度不整合不能代表白垩纪古近纪之间的构造运动,而是代表始新世晚期后的构造运动。同时,林周盆地可能沉积有古近纪的河湖相地层。     

Biosynthesis of proteoglycans by isolated rabbit glomeruli

Isolated rabbit glomeruli were incubated in vitro with 35SO4 in order to analyze the proteoglycans synthesized. Proteoglycans extracted with 4 M guanidine HCl from whole isolated glomeruli and from purified glomerular basement membrane (GBM) were analyzed by gel filtration chromatography. Two types of sulfated proteoglycans were found to be synthesized by rabbit glomeruli and these contained either heparan sulfate or chondroitin/dermatan sulfate glycosaminoglycan chains. These glycosaminoglycans were characterized by their sensitivity to selective degradation by nitrous acid or chondroitinase ABC, respectively. The major proteoglycan extracted from the whole glomeruli was a chondroitin/dermatan sulfate species (75%), while purified GBM contained mostly heparan sulfate (70%). The glycosaminoglycan chains were estimated to be about 12,000 molecular weight which is consistent with previous estimates for similar molecules extracted from the rat GBM.     

Alterations in lung basement membrane during fetal growth and type 2 cell development

We studied basement membrane development in the late fetal and in the neonatal rat lung, from the 18th day of gestation (term = 22 days) through the 8th postnatal day, with particular emphasis on the gas-exchange region of the lung. In the periphery of the lung, as type 2 cells differentiate, the continuous basement membrane develops openings beneath these cells. Basal cytoplasmic foot processes extend through these discontinuities into the underlying interstitium, often approaching interstitial cells closely. These discontinuities and extensive foot processes are associated only with type 2 epithelial cells and not with either differentiated airway cells or with the type 1 alveolar lining cells derived from type 2 cells. The type 2 cell basement membrane discontinuities and penetrating foot processes are maximal in the perinatal period and decrease in the week after birth. The appearance of openings in type 2 cell basement membrane and changes in distribution, linear density, and ruthenium red staining of anionic sites suggest that the epithelial basement membrane undergoes continuous remodeling throughout development, particularly in association with type 2 cell differentiation and growth of lung surface area. Epithelial cell foot processes may interact with underlying interstitial cells and affect the coordination of lung surface growth with the development of its connective tissue framework.     

Early divergence and changing proportions of neuronal and glial precursor cells in the primate cerebral ventricular zone

Immunocytochemical staining with antisera directed against glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFA) was used to examine the cellular composition of the proliferative ventricular zone (VZ) in the occipital lobe of rhesus monkey fetuses during the first half of their 165-day gestational period. Electron microscopic analysis revealed a small number of GFA-positive cells in specimens of embryonic (E) ages E39 and E40. By E47 about 28% of the cells in the VZ were immunoreactive. This percentage increased to 37% at E61 and reached 60% by E80. The fraction of GFA-positive mitotic figures followed the same general tendency with 34, 47, and 80% being labeled at E47, E61, and E80, respectively. The present results reveal the existence of two basic classes of cells, GFA positive and GFA negative, indicating that in the primate brain, glial and neuronal precursor cells may coexist in the ventricular zone at embryonic ages when few, if any, neurons have become postmitotic.     

Identification of sequences necessary for packaging DNA into lambda phage heads

Several species of DNA molecules are packaged into lambda phage heads if they carry the region around the cohesive end site of lambda phage (cos lambda). The minimal functional sequence around cos lambda needed for packaging was examined by cloning in pBR322. The results showed that the minimal region contained 85 bp around cos lambda; 45 bp of the left arm of lambda phage and 40 bp of the right arm. A 75-bp region located to the right of the minimal region seems to enhance packaging. A 223-bp fragment containing these regions can be used as a portable element for plasmid DNA packaging into lambda phage heads. Plasmid ppBest 322, a derivative of pBR322 carrying this portable packager and both amp and tet genes, was constructed. This plasmid is useful for cloning of large DNA fragments.     

The kinetic significance of cell size : II. Size distributions of resting and proliferating cells during interphase

This second part in a two part report describes the kinetic, cell size and nuclear size characteristics of S phase cells and cells with greatly protracted generation times (‘resting’ cells) in a cell line of human lymphoid cells. The median cell and nuclear sizes of S phase cells were greater than the corresponding median sizes observed in the whole population. Resting cells (operationally defined as unlabelled cells after 5 days of continuous labelling with [³H]TdR) have cell and nuclear size distributions overlapping with the cell and nuclear size distributions of the whole population. These resting cells are kinetically characterized by means of the observed labelling index vs time data during continuous labelling. The implication of these results are discussed.     

Localization of the human alpha-globin structural gene to chromosome 16 in somatic cell hybrids by molecular hybridization assay

We have used 16 human × mouse somatic cell hybrids containing a variable number of human chromosomes to demonstrate that the human α-globin gene is on chromosome 16. Globin gene sequences were detected by annealing purified human α-globin complementary DNA to DNA extracted from hybrid cells. Human and mouse chromosomes were distinguished by Hoechst fluorescent centromeric banding, and the individual human chromosomes were identified in the same spreads by Giemsa trypsin banding. Isozyme markers for 17 different human chromosomes were also tested in the 16 clones which have been characterized. The absence of chromosomal translocation in all hybrid clones strongly positive for the α-globin gene was established by differential staining of mouse and human chromosomes with Giemsa 11 staining. The presence of human chromosomes in hybrid cell clones which were devoid of human α-globin genes served to exclude all human chromosomes except 6, 9, 14 and 16. Among the clones negative for human α-globin sequences, one contained chromosome 2 (JFA 14a 5), three contained chromosome 4 (AHA 16E, AHA 3D and WAV R4D) and two contained chromosome 5 (AHA 16E and JFA14a 13 5) in >10% of metaphase spreads. These data excluded human chromosomes 2, 4 and 5 which had been suggested by other investigators to contain human globin genes. Only chromosome 16 was present in each one of the three hybrid cell clones found to be strongly positive for the human α-globin gene. Two clones (WAIV A and WAV) positive for the human α-globin gene and chromosome 16 were counter-selected in medium which kills cells retaining chromosome 16. In each case, the resulting hybrid populations lacked both human chromosome 16 and the α-globin gene. These studies establish the localization of the human α-globin gene to chromosome 16 and represent the first assignment of a nonexpressed unique gene by direct detection of its DNA sequences in somatic cell hybrids.
