锡嘴雀中脑背外侧核的听觉传入系统

鸟类的中脑背外侧核(Nucleus mesencephalicus lateralis,pars dorsalis;MLd)相当于哺乳类的下丘,与听觉传入有关。 本实验选用成年锡嘴雀(Cocoothraustes cocoothraustes)21只(10 11)。经轻度麻醉后,于中脑背外侧核(Po.3,LR 2.7—3.2,H8.0—8.5)注入30％HRP(Sigma Ⅵ)溶液0.1—0.4μl。动物存活36—48小时,颈动脉灌流固定后取脑,连续冰冻切片,片厚40     

药用植物肿节枫诱导前噬菌体有效组分的分析

在11种溶原性细菌系统中,以双层琼脂平板-纸片法检测药用植物肿节枫对前噬菌体的诱导作用,表明温和性噬菌体φ52 Ⅰ溶原化的金黄色葡萄球菌2009,对肿节枫的诱导反应最为敏感。其它溶原性菌株,包括曾用以筛选抗肿瘤药物的大肠杆菌K_(12)(λ)-K_(12)S系统都呈阴性反应。化学成分的进一步分析说明,仅肿节枫黄酮糖苷组分Ⅰ具有诱导活性。并与丝裂霉素C作了比较。     

白喉毒素的双重溶原性转换的研究

从白喉噬菌体β和r杂交,分离得到一株白喉噬菌体的重组子一、具有亲代噬菌体β产生毒紊的溶原性转换能力,即带有β的毒素基因(tox)和噬菌体r的溶原性免疫性的特征。该噬菌体再感染单溶原性产毒菌株C7(β),得到双重溶原性菌株,携带了两个前噬菌体及其所带有的两个毒素基因,菌株产毒能力单溶原性亲代株高。     

哺乳动物卵子的透明带

哺乳动物的卵子表面由透明带所包围,已知透明带可被蛋白质分解酶、低PH、氧化剂、还原剂以及热处理等溶解破坏.有关透明带的来源,过去曾认为是由卵子颗粒层细胞,或是卵细胞,以及由两者共同产生.最近的研究表明,透明带是由卵细胞所产生.目前一般认为卵子的透明带在受精时,可起到种间识别、阻止多精子受精以及在着床前保护受精卵的作用.此外,透明带还具

理解运动行为抑制调控的新视角：乙酰胆碱门控氯离子通道受体

Acetylcholine, the first identified neurotransmitter, plays crucial roles in various brain functions. One well-known case is its involvement as an activating neurotransmitter in the regulation of locomotion. However, its inhibitory regulatory role, particularly in locomotion, remains poorly understood. In a study conducted by Polat et al., the authors investigated the inhibitory role of acetylcholine in locomotion in C. elegans. In this organism, the acetylcholine-gated chloride channel receptor consists of four subunits. The authors thoroughly examined the loss-of-function of each subunit in movement regulation. Interestingly, the mutant worms were still capable of performing various movements such as forward, backward crawling, and turning, suggesting that the overall movement was not significantly affected. However, quantitative behavior analysis revealed subtle yet significant differences in the timing and postures of the movement in these mutants. Furthermore, the authors employed optogenetics to stimulate a specific neuron involved in backward crawling and demonstrated that the loss-of-function of the receptors in individual neurons affects the transitioning between locomotion modes. This work provides evidence for the inhibitory regulatory role of acetylcholine in locomotion. The loss-of-function of acetylcholine-gated chloride channel receptors likely disrupts the balance of neuronal and circuit physiology, thereby affecting the regulation of locomotion. Moreover, this study highlights the powerful role of quantitative behavior analysis in discovering and understanding more sophisticated functions of neural circuits.     

复制型HBV转基因小鼠的遗传与繁育研究

本文采用类似系祖建系的方法,对复制型ＨＢＶ转基因小鼠模型的１７、２１、２５三个系列进行了繁育,通过ＰＣＲ和Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ分子杂交的方法,检测三个系列小鼠尾组织和血清的ＤＮＡ样品,以确定ＨＢＶ基因的整合和复制情况。结果表明,ＨＢＶ基因已稳定地遗传至第五代（Ｆ５）,且各世代小鼠血清中都存在ＨＢＶＤＮＡ,此外,整合阳性小鼠的血清中能测出ＨＢＶＤＮＡ的比率很高,Ｆ１代为９４．４４％（１０２／１０８）,Ｆ２、Ｆ３代为９５．３１％（６１／６４）,故在繁育中可以通过测血清中的ＨＢＶＤＮＡ来确定小鼠是否整合。
