Highly selective affinity labeling of the primer-binding site of E. coli DNA polymerase I

Membrane-associated phosphoinositidase C activity has been identified in Dictyostelium discoideum using phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate as exogenous substrate. Maximal activity was observed with 0.4 mM phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate at pH 7.0. The enzyme was stimulated

by micromolar concentrations of free calcium with maximal activity at 100 μM.     

Alternative Pathways of Glucose Utilization in Brain; Changes in the Pattern of Glucose Utilization in Brain Resulting from Treatment of Rats with 6-Aminonicotinamide

The effect of 6-aminonicotinamide (6AN) treatment on the activities of alternative pathways of glucose metabolism in 20-day-old rat brain was evaluated by measurements of yields of 14CO2 from glucose labeled with 14C on carbons 1, 2, 3 + 4, or 6 and uniformly labeled glucose, and from the incorporation of 14C from specifically labeled glucose into lipids by brain slices from cerebral hemispheres and cerebellum. At the highest dose of 6AN used (35 mg/kg body weight) there was a significant decrease in the 14CO2 yields via the pentose phosphate pathway, the glycolytic route, tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, and via the glutamate-gamma-aminobutyric acid pathway. Giving a graded series of doses (20-35 mg 6AN/kg body weight) revealed a hierarchy of responses in which the pentose phosphate pathway, lactate, glyceride-glycerol, and fatty acid formation were most sensitive, followed, in sequence, by the pyruvate dehydrogenase reaction, the glutamate-gamma-aminobutyrate route and, finally, the TCA cycle. The nature of the blocks in the various pathways was examined by the use of metabolite profiles.     

早产儿语言发展的影响因素及其干预对策

早产儿的语言发展受到多种因素的影响,可能导致他们在词汇、语法、语音等方面出现发展滞后或障碍。本文首先简述了影响早产儿语言发展的生物学和环境因素的研究进展,其中生物学因素包括早产程度、体重和性别、新生儿发病率和疾病严重程度等,环境因素则包括新生儿重症监护室的环境、家庭中的语言环境和社会因素等。在明确这些影响因素的基础上,本文强调了早期评估和早期干预是优化早产儿语言发育效果的关键步骤,并分析了具体的干预对策,例如生理和神经干预、优化新生儿重症监护室（NICU）环境、增强家庭语言互动、多学科合作和社会支持等。此综述旨在探讨影响早产儿语言发展的各种因素,并总结出有效的早期干预措施,为其提供更为全面的语言发展支持。     

副溶血性弧菌免疫逃逸及其可能机制的研究进展

副溶血性弧菌是全球范围内威胁人体健康和食品安全的食源性致病菌。在感染人体的过程中,副溶血性弧菌通过将其效应蛋白直接注射至宿主细胞中操纵宿主,介导毒力的发挥,并进化出了一套完美的免疫逃逸策略,成功躲避免疫系统的攻击,引起急性肠胃炎、败血症和坏死性筋膜炎等疾病。副溶血性弧菌入侵上皮细胞,使胞内囊泡酸化,在与溶酶体融合之前逃逸到细胞质中,并且限制活性氧的产生,促进其在胞内生存。副溶血性弧菌可以诱导自噬,抑制NLRC4炎症小体介导的caspase-1的激活,还可以通过抑制TAK1激酶,阻止MAPK和NF-κB信号通路的激活,干扰免疫系统激活,借助多种手段共同协作从而达到免疫逃逸。本文系统总结了副溶血性弧菌现已研究的免疫逃逸机制,并对其可能存在的免疫逃逸机制提供了新的见解和方向,对深入了解副溶血性弧菌的致病机理和防控药物靶向位点的选择及研发具有重要意义。

Aquifex aeolicus 3-Deoxy-d-manno-2-Octulosonic Acid 8-Phosphate Synthase: A New Class of KDO 8-P Synthase?

The relationship between 3-deoxy-D-manno-2-octulosonic acid 8-phosphate (KDO 8-P) synthase and 3-deoxy-D-arabino-2-heptulosonic acid 7-phosphate (DAH 7-P) synthase has not been adequately addressed in the literature. Based on recent reports of a metal requiring KDO 8-P synthase and the newly solved X-ray crystal structures of both Escherichia coli KDO 8-P synthase and DAH 7-P synthase, we begin to address the evolutionary kinship between these catalytically similar enzymes. Using a maximum likelihood-based grouping of 29 KDO 8-P synthase sequences, we demonstrate the existence of a new class of KDO 8-P synthase, the members of which we propose to require a metal cofactor for catalysis. Similarly, we hypothesize a class of DAH 7-P synthase that does not have the metal requirement of the heretofore model E. coli enzyme. Based on this information and a careful investigation of the reported X-ray crystal structures, we also propose that KDO 8-P synthase and DAH 7-P synthase are the product of a divergent evolutionary process from a common ancestor.     

改良早期预警评分对转院转运工作影响的临床研究

目的 研究改良早期预警（MEWS）评分对转院转运工作的影响.方法 在转院转运工作中应用MEWS评分系统对患者进行病情评估,对比其应用前（对照组）、应用后（研究组）转院患者转运途中病情恶化的发生率、患者或家属满意度及医生、护士对实施MEWS评分转运管理模式前（对照组）、后（研究组）满意度的变化.结果 转院患者转运途中病情恶化发生率由应用前（对照组）的10.63%降至应用后（研究组）的3.74%,应用前、后比较差异有显著统计学意义（P＜0.01）;患方满意度则由96%提高至99%,医护人员对实施MEWS评分转运管理模式前、后的满意度由应用前的83.3%提高至应用后的95%,应用前、后比较均有显著性意义（P＜0.05）.结论 MEWS评分能对转院患者的病情进行比较客观、准确的评估,提高了医务人员的质量和医疗干预意识,从而有效降低转院患者转运途中的病情恶化发生率和提高院前医患双方的满意度,是转院转运工作中简便、快捷、客观、实用的病情评估方法和模式,值得推广应用.
