Annular seabream, Diplodus annularis (Linnaeus, 1758), were caught off the coast of the Gulf of Gabes (Southern Tunisia, Central Mediterranean) between April 2008 and March 2010 by commercial catches. With a total 2066 specimens the fish ranged in size from 7.7 cm to 18.5 cm total length and from 7.5 g to 123.3 g in weight. Changes in biological parameters (weight, length, gonadosomatic index, hepatosomatic index and condition factor) were examined in order to provide information on the spawning period and reproductive cycle in the gulf. Overall sex ratio was 1 : 1.52 in favour of females. The reproductive season extends from March to June, with a spawning activity peak in May. Total length at sexual maturity was 10.5 ± 0.22 cm (males) and 10.6 ± 0.3 cm (females). The results of this study could help to establish a recommended minimum capture size. 相似文献

Aim of the studyTo evaluate the performance of the 99mTc-Sestamibi parathyroid scintigraphy and to compare it with the performance of cervical ultrasonography in patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism who are candidates for parathyroidectomy.Patients and methodsWe performed a retrospective study including 20 patients with severe secondary hyperparathyroidism who underwent parathyroid scintigraphy in the nuclear medicine department of Sfax, during the period between January 2009 and June 2012. Our two days protocol included dual-phase, MIBI/Tc subtraction and single photon emission photons (SPECT) techniques. We analyzed the results obtained from each technique alone, then from combinations thereof. For all patients, we have collected the surgical and histopathological data as well cervical ultrasound if available.ResultsThe subtraction technique was the best performing with a sensitivity of 47% and an accuracy of 55%. The combination of subtraction scintigraphy and SPECT has improved the sensitivity to 53%and accuracy to 57%. The combined lecture of ultrasound and scintigraphy has given the best performance with a sensitivity of 58%, a specificity of 83% and an accuracy of 66%.ConclusionParathyroid scintigraphy combining subtraction and SPECT showed better reliability. The coupling with ultrasound is essential to improve results. The poor performance of scintigraphy in secondary hyperparathyroidism implies that it should be required only to search for ectopic or supernumerary glands. 相似文献

In order to better understand the effects of heavy metals on the growth of plants, we decided to perform recovering experiments by following both chemical and physiological parameters in cadmium pre-stressed tomato seedlings after cadmium had been removed from the nutrient solution. The work shows that cadmium suppression results in resumption of growth activity. The biomass of leaves and stems rose steadily. The increase in root biomass exceeded those of leaves and stems. At the same time, nitrate content was increased to reach the level obtained with unstressed controls. In all the organs studied, the activities of the enzymes involved in the anabolic nitrogen primary assimilation pathways (nitrate reductase (NR), nitrite reductase (NiR) and glutamine synthetase (GS) soared after that cadmium had been removed. While NAD(+)-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH-NAD+) activity also rose progressively during the recovering time, the cognate NADH-dependent glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH-NADH) activity decreased. This result allows us to propose that the ammonia produced by the stress-induced protein catabolism is detoxified and re-assimilated by the GDH-NADH isoenzyme. On the basis of these results, we will discuss the ability of the plant to dilute the effects of pollutants during the recovering period. An important outcome of this work is that a transient contamination of the culture medium by pollutants is not necessarily followed by a significant depreciation in product yield or quality. 相似文献

In order to study the association of HLA-A, -B and/or DRB1, DQB1 and the nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC), 141 patients affected
with NPC were typed for the HLA class I by serology method of microlymphocytotoxicity. Among these patients 101 were genotyped
for HLA class II system by the PCR-SSP technique. HLA typing results were compared to those of 116 controls. We found that
the HLA-A31 and -A33 antigens were significantly more expressed in patients than in the controls (P = 0.016 and 0.010, respectively) and the HLA-A19 antigen, was significantly more frequent in patients when compared to the
controls (P = 0.007). The HLA-DRB1*03 and DRB1*13 alleles were significantly more frequent in patients as compared to the controls. The
DRB1*01 allele was expressed with a frequency of 20.69% in the controls whereas it was only detected in 3.96% of the NPC patients.
Furthermore, the DQB1*05 allele was expressed at a frequency which was significantly less important in affected patient (P = 0.03), whereas, the DQB1*02 allele was more frequent in patients (P = 0.643 × 10−4). Thus our study revealed a significant increase of HLA-A31, A33, A19, B16, B53 and DRB1*03, DRB1*13 and DQB1*02 alleles
in our patients. These markers could play a predisposing role in the development of NPC. In contrast, a decrease of HLA-B14,
-B35 and DRB1*01 and DQB1*05 alleles was found suggesting a likely protective effect. 相似文献

Summary A new thermophilic Streptomyces sp. TO1, isolated from Tunisian soil, produced a thermostable alpha-amylase and pullulanase. The gene encoding for the alpha-amylase activity was cloned into the multicopy cloning plasmid pLM1 using S. lividans ZX1 as host strain. The ZX1 / pLM1 strain has the same activity than the initial TO1 strain and about 25 fold higher activity than the ZX1 strain. This alpha-amylase has an optimum of pH and temperature at 6 and 70 °C respectively. 相似文献

We have cloned and characterized VvNHX1, a gene encoding a vacuolar cation/H(+) antiporter from Vitis vinifera cv. Cabernet Sauvignon. VvNHX1 belongs to the vacuolar NHX protein family and showed high similarity to other known vacuolar antiporters. The expression of VvNHX1 partially complements the salt- and hygromycin-sensitive phenotypes of an ena1-4 nhx1 yeast strain. Immunoblots of vacuoles of yeast expressing a VvNHX1, together with the expression of a VvNHX1-GFP (green fluorescent protein) chimera demonstrated that VvNHX1 localized to the vacuoles. VvNHX1 displayed low affinity K(+)/H(+) and Na(+)/H(+) exchange activities (12.8 and 40.2 mM, respectively). The high levels of expression of VvNHX1 during the véraison and post-véraison stages would indicate that the increase in vacuolar K(+) accumulation, mediated by VvNHX1, is needed for vacuolar expansion. This process, together with the rapid accumulation of reducing sugars, would drive water uptake to the berry and the concomitant berry size increase, typical of the post-véraison stage of growth. 相似文献

An efficient system for the establishment and multiplication of highly prolific embryogenic cell cultures of grapevine (Vitis sp.) was developed. Using anther-derived pro-embryogenic masses as starting material, cell suspensions of different grapevine cultivars (Tempranillo, Cabernet-Sauvignon) and rootstocks (Kober 125 AA, Kober 5 BB, 110 Richter) were initiated in liquid medium containing NOA (1.0 mg l(-1)) and BAP (0.25 mg l(-1)) as growth regulators. Conditioned medium was recovered and utilised for establishing new, highly totipotent cell cultures. The suspensions obtained, showed embryogenic competence resulting in somatic embryo induction and subsequent plant regeneration. In this study, a simplified establishment procedure for grapevine embryogenic cell suspension allowing the fast multiplication of embryogenic material is described. Evidence for the promoting effect of the protein fraction derived from conditioned medium, on cell proliferation was found. In bioassays, addition of ss-D: -GlcY affect cell proliferation suggesting that arabinogalactan proteins are required for growth processes in grapevine cell cultures. 相似文献

The effects of cadmium (Cd) uptake on ultrastructure and lipid composition of chloroplasts were investigated in 28-day-old tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum var. Ibiza F1) grown for 10 days in the presence of various concentrations of CdCl2. Different growth parameters, lipid and fatty acid composition, lipid peroxidation, and lipoxygenase activity were measured in the leaves in order to assess the involvement of this metal in the generation of oxidative stress. We first observed that the accumulation of Cd increased with external metal concentration, and was considerably higher in roots than in leaves. Cadmium induced a significant inhibition of growth in both plant organs, as well as a reduction in the chlorophyll and carotenoid contents in the leaves. Ultrastructural investigations revealed that cadmium induced disorganization in leaf structure, essentially marked by a lowered mesophyll cell size, reduced intercellular spaces, as well as severe alterations in chloroplast fine structure, which exhibits disturbed shape and dilation of thylakoid membranes. High cadmium concentrations also affect the main lipid classes, leading to strong changes in their composition and fatty acid content. Thus, the exposure of tomato plants to cadmium caused a concentration-related decrease in the fatty acid content and a shift in the composition of fatty acids, resulting in a lower degree of fatty acid unsaturation in chloroplast membranes. The level of lipid peroxides and the activity of lipoxygenase were also significantly enhanced at high Cd concentrations. These biochemical and ultrastructural changes suggest that cadmium, through its effects on membrane structure and composition, induces premature senescence of leaves. 相似文献
