志贺菌对HeLa细胞侵袭力的研究

通过使用噬斑形成试验、透射电镜及检测志贺菌蛋白表达等方法,研究志贺菌对Hela细胞的侵袭能力。研究发现:37℃培养条件下,胞质内出现成堆的志贺菌;30℃培养条件下,细菌主要分布在细胞外。SDS-PAGE显示,与30℃培养条件相比,在37℃培养下,志贺菌表达蛋白质的种类和数量明显增加。噬斑形成发现,12株福氏志贺菌强毒株,有9株噬斑数>1000个／ml,而2株弱毒株噬斑数则在50个／ml以下。透射电镜证实了志贺菌对细胞的黏附、侵入和释放过程。结果表明:志贺菌对细胞的侵袭能力受温度的影响;不同志贺菌流行株对细胞的侵袭力存在着差异:实验也显示,应用HeLa细胞研究志贺菌侵袭力是一种简便易行且价廉的方法。

Determining uptake of 'non-labile' soil cadmium by Thlaspi caerulescens using isotopic dilution techniques

We assessed the ability of several populations of the metal-hyperaccumulator species, Thlaspi caerulescens , to mobilize non-labile cadmium in soils historically contaminated by Pb/Zn mine spoil or sewage sludge. Radio- labile Cd was determined chemically as an ' E -value', [Cd _E ], and biologically as an ' L -value', [Cd _L ]. For comparison, chloride-extractable Cd, [Cd_chlor], was also determined using 1 M CaCl₂ as a single-step soil extractant. Values of [Cd _L ] were measured for six populations of T. caerulescens that varied substantially in their ability to assimilate soil Cd, and a non-accumulator species with a similar growth habit, Lepidium heterophyllum . Seeds were sown in soil spiked with ¹⁰⁹Cd and grown for 9–12 wk in a controlled environment room. Values of [Cd _L ] were determined from the specific activity of ¹⁰⁹Cd and concentration of Cd in the plant leaves. For the six soils studied, [Cd _E ] ranged from 4.9 to 49% of total soil Cd [Cd_T]. Values of [Cd _L ] were, in general, in close agreement with both [Cd _E ] and [Cd_chlor] and substantially less than [Cd_T]. However, [Cd _L ] showed no correlation with the concentration of Cd in plant tissue, [Cd_shoot]. This suggests that, in the soils studied, T. caerulescens did not mobilize non-labile soil Cd by producing root exudates or altering rhizosphere pH. The results imply that there may be significant restrictions to metal bioavailability, even to hyperaccumulator species, in heavily contaminated soils in which a large proportion of the metal may be present in 'non-labile' forms.     

Production of stably transformed cassava plants via particle bombardment

 A novel protocol, based on biolistics and regeneration via organogenesis, was developed for genetic transformation of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz). The in vitro performance of cassava cultivars CMC40, MPer183 and MCol22 was evaluated, and the regeneration protocol was modified to improve shoot production from explants for transformation experiments. Somatic cotyledons were used as a target tissue in the transformation experiments using the Particle Inflow Gun and a plasmid containing the uidA gene in transient assays. The effect of different parameters for particle bombardment efficiency, including the amount of DNA used, the flying distance of the projectiles and the pre- and post-plasmolysis time of the target tissue, was evaluated and the conditions were partially optimised. Stably transformed cassava plants of cvs. MCol22 and TMS60444 were produced using the partially optimised conditions and two different vector constructs carrying the hpt gene as the selectable marker. The selection protocol was optimised further, and a rooting test was developed for screening the regenerants for antibiotic resistance to reduce the number of escapes obtained after primary selection. The production of stably transformed cassava lines and the expression of the transgenes was verified by Southern blot analysis and RT-PCR.

Zinc kinetics in insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients

Zinc has an important role in the control of carbohydrate metabolism, and diabetic patients are at risk for zinc deficiency. However, there are conflicting data concerning nutritional zinc status. In order to investigate this topic, 10 normal and 10 insulin-dependent diabetic patients were studied following venous zinc tolerance test. Our results found no evidence of zinc deficiency or of changes on the kinetic parameters of zinc in patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus following a venous zinc tolerance test.

Investigations on the mutagenicity of 1,4-dichlorobenzene and its main metabolite 2,5-dichlorophenol in vivo and in vitro

The genotoxic potential of 1,4-dichlorobenzene (1,4-DCB) has been extensively evaluated in vitro and in vivo. The majority of the studies demonstrated the absence of a genotoxic potential for 1,4-DCB. At variance are a bone marrow micronucleus test (MNT) after intraperitoneal (i.p.) treatment of NMRI mice [Mohtashamipur et al., Mutagenesis 2 (1987) 111–113] and a gene mutation assay on mouse lymphoma cells [McGregor et al., Environ. Mol. Mutagen. 12 (1988) 85–145]. Therefore, we investigated 1,4-DCB and its main metabolite 2,5-dichlorophenol (2,5-DCP) for both endpoints. In an MNT, male and female NMRI mice were treated orally with single doses of 2500 mg/kg 1,4-DCB and 1500 mg/kg 2,5-DCP, respectively. Smears were prepared 24, 48 and 72 h thereafter. No induction of micronuclei was detected for both compounds. Also under the conditions of Mohtashamipur et al. (1987), intraperitoneal treatments of male and female mice with 2 × 177.5 and 2 × 355 mg/kg 1,4-DCB failed to induce micronuclei. In addition, CHO/HPRT-gene mutation tests with 1,4-DCB and 2,5-DCP yielded negative results for both compounds with and without metabolic activation system. Therefore, 1,4-DCB and 2,5-DCP are considered to be non-mutagenic in these test systems.
