人体单臂间歇运动对发汗调定点的影响

本工作系在微小气候相对恒定条件下,对10名健康男青年每人进行四项实验。实验 Ⅰ 为测定双侧腿足浸入43℃水中,诱发左前臂屈侧显现定量汗点时的口腔温度(舌下)阈值,作为发汗调定点参考值(ToSSP);实验 Ⅱ 为 Ⅰ 附加右臂间歇轻负荷运动(77W)时测定 ToSSP,部分对象还记录了皮肤电反应;实验 Ⅲ、Ⅳ 为 Ⅰ、Ⅱ 均附加4.5m/s 气流(22—25℃)直吹头面部,再分别测定 ToSSP。实验 Ⅰ 与 Ⅱ 同体对照22人次,Ⅲ 与 Ⅳ 同体对照24人次。结果表明,实验 Ⅱ、Ⅳ 的 ToSSP 均值及其潜伏期均值分别较 Ⅰ、Ⅲ 者降低(P<0.01)或缩短(P<0.001);Ⅰ、Ⅱ间的 ToSSP 均值差、潜伏期均值差,分别与 Ⅲ、Ⅳ 之间者无显著差异(P>0.2);Ⅱ、Ⅳ 的ToSSP 均值各与其实验开始前的口温均值亦无明显差异(P>0.5)。此结果支持运动时体温调定点下降的论点,并提示在研究体温调定点活动时,以 ToSSP 为指标较用发汗速率为优越,因 ToSSP 不为许多干扰因素所影响。     

Diverse effects of three furocoumarins on human lymphocyte proliferation

The biological effects of three furocoumarins on the proliferation of human normal peripheral blood lymphocytes have been investigated. Mitogen-stimulated human lymphocytes were assayed "in vitro" by measuring 3H-thymidine (3H-TdR) incorporation in the presence and in the absence of 15-30 microM 3-carbethoxypsoralen (3-CPs), trimethylangelicin (TMA) and psoralen (PSR) with and without UV-A irradiation (365 nm). The three furocoumarins differ in their ability to form mono- and bi-functional adducts with DNA pyrimidine bases and in producing reactive species of oxygen. At low furocoumarin doses and short times of UV-A irradiation (15-30 sec) used in the present study, 3-CPs did not affect 3H-TdR incorporation in PHA-stimulated human lymphocytes, TMA strongly inhibited 3H-TdR incorporation, while, unexpectedly, PSR increased 3H-TdR incorporation in the absence of irradiation, likely acting, under these experimental conditions, as a co-mitogen.     

Effects of newly synthesised platinum(ii) complexes on mitochondrial functions

Protease deficient recA431 mutants of Escherichia coli are defective in their capacity for induction of SOS responses and were intermediate in their sensitivities to ultraviolet light (UV) and cis-platinum(II)diamminodichloride (cis-PDD). Survival after treatment determined as colony forming ability was greater in rec⁺ strains and decreased in recA13 mutants which are defective in both recA proteolytic and recombination capabilites. In contrast, recA431 mutants were as sensitive to N-methyl-N′-nitro-N-nitrosoguanidine (NTG) as the recA13 cells. When cells carried either the pKM101 or N3 plasmid, survival after treatment with the three mutagens was increased. Presence of these plasmids in cells also resulted in hypermutagenicity as indicated by reversion of the argE3 mutation using a modified Ames test. Mutagenesis by NTG and cis-PDD was increased, as was survival of cells treated with UV light, cis-PDD and NTG in both recA⁺ and recA431 (protease deficient) strains. No plasmid mediated enhancement of mutagenesis or cell survival was observed in recA13 mutants. Thus, the ability of the plasmids to enhance cell survival and mutagenesis was dependent on recombination proficiency of the recA gene product and not its regulatory proteolytic activity. Unlike UV or NTG, presence of one of these plasmids was needed to detect reversion of the argE3 mutation by cis-PDD.     

我国恙虫蚴的三个新种(蜱螨目, 恙虫科)

近几年来,我国科学家们在恙虫方面的研究工作巳经取得了显著的成就。然而,这对于拥有辽阔疆土的我国来说,实在只不过是一个开始。我们在这方面的工作也做得很少,虽然从1953年开始收集标本,由于各种条件所限制,未能及时整理,以致大量标本散失或霉烂,十分可惜。本文内容,仅仅是将我站恙虫病调研工作组1957年在本省各地所采集的材料中的三种恙虫蚴加以描述,该三种恙虫蚴均系文献上未曾记载过的种类。     

Characterization and co-culture of novel nontransformed cell lines derived from rat endometrial epithelium and stroma

Summary Normal and neoplastic growth of epithelial cells depends on mutual interactions between epithelial and stromal cells. As a tool for the study of the underlying molecular mechanisms, we have developed temperature-sensitive, nontransformed cell lines derived from rat uterine epithelium and stroma by transfecting primary cultures with a temperature-sensitive mutant of the SV40 large T antigen. The epithelial and stromal cell lines obtained shared relevant morphological characteristics with the primary cells from which they were derived. Immunocytochemical analysis showed that the epithelial cell lines expressed the intermediate filament cytokeratin, whereas the stromal lines expressed the intermediate filament vimentin. Alkaline phosphatase activity was present in all cell lines examined. All cell lines were anchorage dependent and did not form foci. One epithelial cell line expressed oxytocin mRNA, a gene product recently shown to be highly expressed in vivo in the uterine epithelium at term. If grown on Matrigel, this cell line formed domelike structures, a further characteristic of its differentiated phenotype. In an attempt to reconstitute an endometrium in vitro, epithelial cells were seeded on top of a layer of stromal cells. Paraffin cross sections showed that this in vitro system consisted of a bilayer structure. Four to five cuboidal epithelial cells were typically anchored atop one stromal cell, forming an endometriumlike tissue. The present in vitro system should provide a useful model for further studies on endometrial functions and epithelial/stromal cell interactions at a molecular level.
