The blastodisc formation in the zebrafish, Brachydanio rerio , was obstructed by treatment with 1.0 μg/ml of cytochalasin B (CB), but not by 1.0 μg/ml of colchicine. The cortex in normal eggs contained a meshwork of microfilaments associated with the plasma membrane. The cortex was thicker at the vegetal pole and thinner at the animal pole of the egg. In CB treated eggs the cortex contained masses of microfilaments detached in places from the plasma membrane. Microtubules were never observed in the cortex of eggs with or without CB treatment. These results suggest that ooplasmic segregation, which results in blastodisc formation, is carried out by activity of the cortex, which contains CB sensitive microfilaments. 相似文献

ABSTRACT. Microsporidian spores were developed from cells which were grown in vitro from a human liver lesion which was due to larval Echinococcus multilocularis . The microsporidian spores developed in the same fashion as an Encephalitozoon cuniculi . The Encephalitozoon -like spores were completely separated on Percoll gradients. The separated spores contained DNA capable of amplification by two different primer sets designed for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of E. multilocularis DNA. However, the cell DNA from which microsporidium developed was thoroughly insensitive to the PCR using the E. multilocularis primer sets. The results strongly suggested that Encephalitozoon should be taken into consideration, when DNA isolated from larval E. multilocularis is analyzed. 相似文献

In this study, hypochlorous acid solution, a weak acid, provided as drinking water to
rats, was evaluated for its ability to eradicate and prevent Pseudomonas
aeruginosa infection, while monitoring its simultaneous effect on serum
biochemical variables and microbiota in the rat cecum. The results suggest that the
solution could not eliminate the bacteria in the experimentally infected rats; however,
the administration of a 10-parts-per-million (ppm) hypochlorous acid solution as drinking
water was effective in inhibiting horizontal spread of P. aeruginosa
infection among cage mates. Additionally, exposure to hypochlorous solution did not have
any effect on serum biochemical variables of the rat including levels of total
cholesterol, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), alkaline
phosphatase (ALP), albumin, total bilirubin, lipase, amylase, urea nitrogen, total
protein, calcium (Ca), phosphorus (P), sodium (Na), chlorine (Cl), except for potassium
(K) levels. The most frequently isolated bacteria in the rat cecum included species
belonging to Bacteroidales, Lactobacillus,
Clostridiales, Erysipelotrichaceae,
Akkermansia, Coriobacteriales, and
Firmicutes. The ratio of the terminal restriction fragment length
polymorphism (T-RFLP) peaks did not differ across rats administered with 5 and 10 ppm weak
acid solution as compared to the control group for any of the bacteria, except for
Erysipelotrichaceae and Firmicutes, where the ratio of
T-RFLP peaks was higher in the 5 ppm group for Erysipelotrichaceae and in
the 10 ppm group for Firmicutes than that in the control group
(P<0.01). The results suggest that the weak acid hypochlorous
solution could not eradicate P. aeruginosa completely from rats. The
solution was effective in preventing infection without affecting serum biochemical
variables; however, some of bacterial microbiota may have changed due to administration of
the solution. 相似文献

The autoxidation of dopa to melanin in culture media causes toxicity to retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and endothelial cells. The damage is specific to cell type and to the ambient oxygen concentration. To determine whether RPE cells influence the oxidation of dopa to media, we compared light absorbing dopa derivatives in the media exposed to cells with those found in the media incubated without cells. Dopa was extensively oxidized in the presence of RPE cells, and more light absorbing substances were generated with higher dopa and oxygen concentrations. However, an increase in ambient oxygen concentration decreased the quantity of several dopa derivatives which had been formed. The data provided evidence that RPE modulated dopa metabolism. Quinolic derivatives produced from a tyrosinase reaction and dopa-melanin formation moved the peak absorbance wavelength of dopa into the visible range. The spectrum between the dopa-derived compounds in the media has an absorbance at 240–275 nm and a maximum around 300 nm wth a shoulder near 375 nm. Gaussian analysis (peak separation) resolved these spectra into five components: a sharp band at 248 nm, a band at 295 nm, a large band at 359 nm, and two broad bands at 459 and 585 nm. 相似文献

Abstract. 1. Females of the water strider Aquarius paludum insularis (Motschulsky) (Heteroptera: Gerridae) carry males on their backs and oviposit under water after copulation. This study focuses on the benefit A. paludum insularis receives by ovipositing in tandem.
2. Males guarded females in tandem through to the end of oviposition in 85% of copulations. Females in tandem dived deeper than single females, and the density of A. paludum insularis eggs increased with water depth. The proportion of eggs parasitized by a scelionid wasp, Tiphodytes gerriphagus Marchal (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) decreased with increasing water depth.
3. These results suggest that during oviposition guarding by males is beneficial for females, because it enables pairs to dive and lay eggs deeper and in oviposition sites where the risk of egg parasitism is lower. 相似文献

Populations of American beech in Virginia and the Great Smoky Mountain National Park in Tennessee and North Carolina were investigated for demographic genetic substructurings. Two Virginia populations, one on the Blue Ridge (WG1) and the other on the Piedmont (WG2) occur over an elevational gradient of several hundreds meters. One of the Great Smoky Mountain populations (GS1) was in a 'beech gap' and the other (GS2) in a 'cove forest' along a creek. The populations in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park were only separated by a few hundred meters in elevation, but both on the same physiographic province. The populations had two growth forms. Trees produced extensive root suckers at WG1, GS1 and GS2, but WG2 had no root suckers and all individuals had obviously been established from seeds. A total of 1335 shoots were mapped at the four sites, their size measured [diameter at breast height (DBH) or diameter at ground height (DGH)], and genotypes were determined for each locus using allozyme analysis. FIS among five different size-classes revealed an excess of homozygotes in WG1, GS1 and GS2, and an excess of heterozygotes in WG2. The offshoot formation from root suckers obviously contributed to the abundance of intermediate size-classes in WG1, GS1 and GS2. Exceedingly localized patchiness of different multilocus genotypes reveals genetic clustering of shoots that have obviously originated from root suckers in WG1, GS1 and GS2. The Piedmont population (WG2), on the other hand, showed loose localization of genetically related trees at a scale of 35–40 m in area, suggesting broader ranges of pollen and seed dispersal. The data are discussed in the light of the differences in growth form and mode of reproduction, and also in relation to the post-glacial migration and the current geographic distribution of the species. 相似文献
