重组肾上腺髓质素表达载体的构建及在哺乳动物细胞中的表达

为探索通过体内表达肾上腺髓质素（adrenomedullin,AM）治疗高血压和慢性心衰的可能性,本实验构建了重组AM真核表达载体,并在无内源笥AM表达的K562细胞株上进行了体外表达实验。实验中采用RT－PCR技术扩增AM cDNA片段,并将扩增的cDNA片段插入pcDNA3.1真核表达质粒,构建成含AM cDNA的重组质料pcDNA3.1AM。用脂质体介导将该质粒转染培养的人白血病细腻K562株,在转染的细胞中,用RT－PCR检测证实有AM mRNA存在;用班点免疫分析方法检测转染细胞的培养液上清,证实有AM多肽存在,表明本实验中构建的重组pcDNA3.1AM载体能够在哺乳类细胞中表达AM。

青藏高原动物地理区的地位和东部界线问题

本文从历史时空的角度分析了青藏高原地区发生的鱼类区系的变化过程,和高原鱼类区系演化的相对独立性,认为这一鱼类区系的分化直接反映了高原隆升事件,并应当在动物地理区划上得到客观反映,即将青藏高原作为一个独立的区划单元。由于青藏高原的隆升和造成古北区、东洋区分化的第三纪末、第四纪初的全球性气候变冷在时间上相近、波及的范围都巨大,共同促成了欧亚大陆古北区、东洋区和青藏高原区特有类群的分化,作为对这些地史事件反映的青藏高原区、古北区和东洋区,在动物地理区划上应该具有相同的地位．另外,依据高原鱼类的分布范围和青藏高原对非高原鱼类的阻碍作用,讨论了青藏高原的界限及其划分问题。

Establishment and characterization of a unique 1 μm diameter liver-derived progenitor cell line

Liver-derived progenitor cells (LDPCs) are recently identified novel stem/progenitor cells from healthy, unmanipulated adult rat livers. They are distinct from other known liver stem/progenitor cells such as the oval cells. In this study, we have generated a LDPC cell line RA1 by overexpressing the simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen (TAg) in primary LDPCs. This cell line was propagated continuously for 55 passages in culture, after which it became senescent. Interestingly, following transformation with SV40 TAg, LDPCs decreased in size significantly and the propagating cells measured 1 μm in diameter. RA1 cells proliferated in vitro with a doubling time of 5-7 days, and expressed cell surface markers of LDPCs. In this report, we describe the characterization of this novel progenitor cell line that might serve as a valuable model to study liver cell functions and stem cell origin of liver cancers.

目的应用反向线点杂交技术(reverse line blot hybridization,RLB)快速鉴定临床常见的曲霉属和毛霉目真菌。方法收集我院真菌和真菌病研究中心保存的5种曲霉菌(烟曲霉、黄曲霉、黑曲霉、土曲霉、构巢曲霉)和7种毛霉目真菌(冻土毛霉菌、总状毛霉菌、卷枝毛霉菌、少根根霉、小孢根霉、微小根毛霉、伞状犁头霉),共计98株菌株。利用真菌通用引物ITS1和ITS4对菌株进行PCR扩增,用12个真菌种特异性探针与扩增后产物进行反向线点杂交。将RLB结果与真菌传统形态学鉴定结果、ITS区DNA测序结果进行比较。结果 RLB可以正确鉴定98株实验菌株,与形态学方法和ITS区测序方法鉴定结果100%一致,种特异性探针之间未见交叉杂交,显示出该方法的高度敏感性和特异性。8株阴性对照菌株(白念珠菌、茄病镰刀菌、尖端赛多孢、马尔尼菲青霉、疣状瓶霉、棒曲霉、日本曲霉以及雅致小克银汉霉),使用RLB方法无法鉴定。通过烟曲霉基因组DNA浓度10倍倍比稀释法验证RLB的敏感性为1.8×10-3 ng/μL。结论 RLB技术为实验室早期快速诊断、鉴定临床常见的曲霉属和毛霉目真菌提供参考。     

基于CSSL的水稻抽穗期QTL定位及遗传分析

抽穗期是水稻（Oryza sativa）品种的重要农艺性状之一,适宜的抽穗期是获得理想产量的前提。鉴定和定位水稻抽穗期基因/QTL,分析其遗传效应对改良水稻抽穗期至关重要。以籼稻品种9311（Oryzasativa ssp.indica‘Yangdao 6’）为受体,粳稻品种日本晴（Oryza sativa ssp.japonica‘Nipponbare’）为供体构建的94个染色体片段置换系群体为材料,以P≤0.01为阈值,对置换片段上的抽穗期QTL进行了鉴定。采用代换作图法共定位了4个控制水稻抽穗期的QTL,分别位于第3、第4、第5和第8染色体;QTL的加性效应值变化范围为–6.4––2.7,加性效应百分率变化范围为–6.4%––2.7%;qHD-3和qHD-8加性效应值较大,表现主效基因特征。为了进一步定位qHD-3和qHD-8,在目标区域加密16对SSR引物,qHD-3和qHD-8分别被界定在第3染色体RM3166–RM16206之间及第8染色体RM4085–RM8271之间,其遗传距离分别为13.9cM和6.4cM。研究结果为利用分子标记辅助选择改良水稻抽穗期奠定了基础。

The growth and nutrient utilization of the insect cell line Spodoptera frugiperda Sf9 in batch and continuous culture

The growth of the Spodoptera frugiperda cell line Sf9 was studied in batch and continuous culture. The results of batch cultivations showed that glucose was the preferred energy and carbon source limiting the cell density in both TNM-FH and IPL-41 media. Continuous culture using IPL-41-based feeding medium with different glucose (2.5, 5 and 10 g l⁻¹) and yeast extract concentrations (4, 8 and 16 g l⁻¹) showed that in serum-supplemented medium the maximum cell density was limited by glucose and yeast extract concentration. The transition to glucose limitation caused a decrease in growth rate and viability. A high cell density culture (18 × 10⁶ ml⁻¹) was obtained using a glucose concentration of 10 g l⁻¹ and a yeast extract concentration of 8 g l⁻¹ in the feeding medium. A yeast extract concentration of 16 g l⁻¹ inhibited growth. Unlike mammalian cell cultures, lactate, alanine and ammonia were not involved in growth inhibition. Lactate did not accumulate under aerobic conditions. Ammonia accumulation, if observed, was insignificant. The level of alanine synthesized and excreted into the culture medium never reached an inhibitory level. During glucose limitation alanine did not accumulate and ammonia was released. However, even in the presence of glucose significant amounts of Asp, Glu, Gln, Asn, Ser, Arg and Met were utilized for energy production. The amino groups of these amino acids were transferred to pyruvate or used for nucleic acid synthesis and excreted in the form of alanine into the culture medium. The consumption of His, Lys, Thr, Gly, Val, Leu, Phe, Tyr, Trp and Ile by growing Sf-9 cells was almost equal to their concentration in the biomass.
