Circular Thin-layer Chromatography of Oligosaccharides

The physicochemical properties and chemical constituents of the blue protein from rice bran were investigated. The blue protein was a copper-containing glycoprotein, the molecular weight of which was found to be 18,300 Daltons by the sedimentation equilibrium method assuming the partial specific volume 0.72 cm³ g^?1. The hexose and pentose contents were 5.49 and 4.01 g per 100 g protein respectively. The copper content was 0.38% which corresponded to 1.09 atoms per one molecule of the protein. The electron spin resonance spectrum showed that the copper was in a cupric state. The standard oxidation-reduction potential of the copper was found to be +275 mV at 20°C and at pH 7.39. The visible and near infrared absorption maxima were found at 450, 600 and 890 mμ, and the 450 mμ band was optically active in the optical rotatory dispersion exhibiting a large Cotton effect.     

Stream hierarchy defines riverscape genetics of a North American desert fish

Global climate change is apparent within the Arctic and the south‐western deserts of North America, with record drought in the latter reflected within 640 000 km² of the Colorado River Basin. To discern the manner by which natural and anthropogenic drivers have compressed Basin‐wide fish biodiversity, and to establish a baseline for future climate effects, the Stream Hierarchy Model (SHM) was employed to juxtapose fluvial topography against molecular diversities of 1092 Bluehead Sucker (Catostomus discobolus). MtDNA revealed three geomorphically defined evolutionarily significant units (ESUs): Bonneville Basin, upper Little Colorado River and the remaining Colorado River Basin. Microsatellite analyses (16 loci) reinforced distinctiveness of the Bonneville Basin and upper Little Colorado River, but subdivided the Colorado River Basin into seven management units (MUs). One represents a cline of three admixed gene pools comprising the mainstem and its lower‐gradient tributaries. Six others are not only distinct genetically but also demographically (i.e. migrants/generation <9.7%). Two of these (i.e. Grand Canyon and Canyon de Chelly) are defined by geomorphology, two others (i.e. Fremont‐Muddy and San Raphael rivers) are isolated by sharp declivities as they drop precipitously from the west slope into the mainstem Colorado/Green rivers, another represents an isolated impoundment (i.e. Ringdahl Reservoir), while the last corresponds to a recognized subspecies (i.e. Zuni River, NM). Historical legacies of endemic fishes (ESUs) and their evolutionary potential (MUs) are clearly represented in our data, yet their arbiter will be the unrelenting natural and anthropogenic water depletions that will precipitate yet another conservation conflict within this unique but arid region.     

Extensive genetic differentiation in Gobiomorphus breviceps from New Zealand

Partial mitochondrial DNA sequences for parts of the cytochrome b gene and control region were obtained for 89 upland bullies Gobiomorphus breviceps from 19 catchments in New Zealand. There were two highly distinctive mtDNA clades: a northern clade corresponding to the North Island, northern South Island and west coast South Island, and a south‐east clade, in the southern and eastern South Island. Within these major clades there were further distinct clades that correlated with geographic sub‐regions and catchments. The marked genetic differentiation has occurred in the absence of obvious morphological divergence. Based on cytochrome b sequence divergences and the molecular clock hypothesis, the northern and southeastern clades correspond with the uplift of the Southern Alps during the Pliocene, while populations in the North Island and northern South Island were estimated to have diverged during the Pleistocene. The widescale geographic divergences were similar to those observed in the galaxiids, Galaxias vulgaris and Galaxias divergens , but biogeographic management boundaries may not be the same, reflecting different evolutionary histories for non‐diadromous species occupying the same areas.     

灵芝线粒体及其对菌丝生长、主要活性成分影响的分析

线粒体是为细胞提供能量（ATP）的细胞器,携带着自己的DNA——mtDNA,已有多种灵芝属菌株的线粒体基因组相继报道,但对于种内的线粒体基因组的分析较少,对核相同、线粒体不同的菌株间差异的研究也鲜有报道。本研究对两株灵芝线粒体基因组进行组装注释,根据差异片段构建分子标记进行种间分类。结果显示：两株灵芝线粒体基因组大小分别为49 233bp、61 563bp的闭环结构,含有15个常见蛋白编码基因,rRNA大小亚基基因及26个携带氨基酸的tRNA基因,其差异区段主要为内含子序列、大亚基及基因间区。根据cob、cox2基因序列能够进行灵芝种间区分,用于灵芝种间鉴定。本研究还根据灵芝119、灵芝无孢的单核菌株构建同核异质体（TY-119、TY-W）,分析线粒体对菌落形态、菌丝生长速度及多糖、三萜成分的影响,结果显示：同核异质体TY-W与TY-119菌落形态上有一定差异,同核异质体TY-W菌丝生长速度为4.77mm/d,是TY-119菌丝生长速度4.50mm/d的1.06倍,同核异质体TY-119菌丝、子实体阶段多糖含量分别为4.45mg/g、12.14mg/g是TY-W菌丝体多糖含量（3.23mg/g）的1.38倍、子实体多糖含量（10.24mg/g）的1.19倍;同核异质体TY-W菌丝、子实体阶段的三萜含量分别为6.82mg/g、11.45mg/g是同核异质体TY-119菌丝体三萜含量（9.26mg/g）的0.74倍,子实体三萜含量（9.10mg/g）的1.26倍。利用高效液相色谱分析同核异质体中灵芝酸含量显示同核异质体TY-W灵芝酸A、灵芝酸E、灵芝酸F含量分别为3.77μg/mL、14.29μg/mL、12.91μg/mL;是TY-119灵芝酸A含量（2.59μg/mL）的1.46倍、灵芝酸E含量（13.65μg/mL）的1.17倍、灵芝酸F含量（12.72μg/mL）的1.06倍。对同核异质体菌丝、子实体阶段多糖、三萜合成通路关键基因（pgm、ugp、gls、hmgs、hmgr、mvd、fps、sqs）表达量进行检测,显示两菌株间多数基因具有显著性差异。结果表明线粒体的不同会影响灵芝菌落形态、菌丝生长速度及多糖、三萜的含量,有助于我们进一步研究线粒体基因组。     

不同剂量舒芬太尼对心脏瓣膜置换术患者应激反应、炎性因子及心肌损伤的影响

目的:探讨不同剂量舒芬太尼对心脏瓣膜置换术患者应激反应、炎性因子及心肌损伤的影响。方法:根据随机数字表法将100例行心脏瓣膜置换术的患者分为低剂量组(n=33,舒芬太尼剂量为1.0μg/kg)、中剂量组(n=33,舒芬太尼剂量为1.5μg/kg)以及高剂量组(n=34,舒芬太尼剂量为2.0μg/kg),比较三组患者应激反应、炎性因子、心肌损伤等指标的变化以及围术期指标情况。结果:中剂量组、高剂量组麻醉诱导后(T1)、插管后1 min(T2)、插管后5 min(T3)、插管后10 min(T4)时间点心率(HR)、平均动脉压(MAP)均低于低剂量组同时间点,且高剂量组低于中剂量组(P<0.05)。与低剂量组比较,中剂量组、高剂量组阻断后30 min(T6)、开主动脉后2h(T7)以及术后1d(T8)时间点白介素-6(IL-6)、肿瘤坏死因子-α(TNF-α)均降低(P<0.05)。与低剂量组比较,中剂量组、高剂量组体外循环停机2h(T9)、体外循环停机8h(T10)、体外循环停机24h(T11)、体外循环停机48h(T12)时间点心肌肌钙蛋白I(cTnI)、肌酸磷酸激酶同工酶(CK-MB)均降低(P<0.05)。低剂量组、中剂量组重症监护室(ICU)滞留时间、拔管时间显著短于高剂量组(P<0.05),而三组心血管不良事件发生率比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论:给予1.0μg/kg舒芬太尼麻醉的患者应激反应小,1.5μg/kg、2.0μg/kg舒芬太尼可更好地控制心脏瓣膜置换术患者炎性反应,同时对患者心肌损伤有一定的保护作用,但2.0μg/kg舒芬太尼会延长患者ICU滞留时间、拔管时间。

摘要 目的：探讨不同浓度罗哌卡因腰硬联合麻醉用于人工髋关节置换手术对患者麻醉效果和术后运动功能的影响。方法：2017年2月至2019年12月选择在本院进行人工髋关节置换手术的患者84例,根据随机数字表法把患者分为观察组与对照组各42例。两组都给予腰硬联合麻醉,对照组采用常规浓度0.5 %罗哌卡因麻醉观察组采用低浓度0.375 %罗哌卡因麻醉,记录患者麻醉效果和术后运动功能变化情况。结果：观察组的麻醉持续时间、运动恢复时间和感觉运动时间都显著短于对照组(P<0.05)。观察组麻醉后10 min、30 min、60 min的Bromage评分都低于对照组(P<0.05)。观察组术后7 d的低血压、恶心呕吐、头晕头痛、尿潴留等不良反应发生率为7.1 %,显著低于对照组的19.0 %(P<0.05)。两组所有患者在术后2 h、术后4 h、术后24 h的呼吸、心率均在正常范围内波动,组间与组内对比都无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论：低浓度罗哌卡因腰硬联合麻醉用于人工髋关节置换手术能改善患者的麻醉效果和运动功能,提高麻醉效果,并不影响患者的生命体征,且能减少术后不良反应的发生。
