Zusammenfassung Die gewonnenen Ergebnisse zeigen mit völliger Klarheit, daß die Schlunddrüse ein stark ausgesprochenes Invertierungsvermögen besitzt, das sich jedoch in hohem Grade, je nach dem Alter der Bienen ändert. Im Gegensatz zum Mitteldarm, der Invertase auszuscheiden beginnt von dem Augenblicke des Ausschlüpfens der jungen Biene, bedarf die Schlunddrüse eines gewissen Zeitraumes zu ihrer Entwicklung. Die von uns angestellten Versuche können indessen die Frage noch nicht endgültig entscheiden, in welchem Moment die Schlunddrüse zu funktionieren beginnt. Wir haben die Sekretionstätigkeit der Drüse an verhältnismäßig alten Bienen — von 10 Tagen an — beobachtet und die maximalen Ziffern der Zuckerinversion bei 30tägigen Bienen ermittelt. Hieraus lassen sich noch keine verallgemeinernden Schlüsse ziehen. Unsere Versuche begannen im August und dauerten bis Mitte September, fanden also am Ende der Saison statt. Das Versuchsvolk war schwach und die Zahl der jungen Bienen und der Brut gering (auf einem Rahmen). Als Beleg dazu genügt der Hinweis, daß die Bienen ihre Orientierungsausflüge im Alter von 18 Tagen unternahmen. Alle diese Faktoren könnten zweifellos das Tempo der Entwicklung des Organismus der Biene — und der Sehlunddrüse im besonderen — beeinflussen. Es ist sehr wahrscheinlich, daß eine Untersuchung über die Veränderung des Invertierungsvermögens der Schiunddrüsen von Bienen, die zu verschiedenen Zeiten der Frühlings- und Sommersaison ausgeschlüpft waren, auch eine verschiedene Schnelligkeit der Entwicklung der Drüse ergeben würde.Was die Brustdrüse anbetrifft, so geben unsere Versuche kein genügendes Material zur Beurteilung, welche Rolle sie im Kohlehydratstoffwechsel der Biene spielt. Nur eines steht fest, daß sie an der Invertierung des Zuckers in keinem Falle beteiligt ist.Der Mitteldarm scheint auch mit dem Alter der Biene sein Invertierungsvermögen zu steigern, wenn auch nicht in solchem Umfange als die Schlunddrüse.Die von uns gewonnenen Resultate erlauben, einige Schlüsse über mehrere Fragen der Bienenbiologie zu ziehen, wie z. B. die Frage über den Anteil der Schlunddrüse an der Futtersaftbereitung usw. Doch müssen solche spezielle Fragen an einer anderen Stelle ausführlich besprochen werden.Zum Schlusse sprechen wir Dr. Resnitschenko sowie Dr. Alpatov für die freundliche Hilfe bei der Ausführung der Arbeit unseren Dank aus. 相似文献

The Drosophila melanogaster gene flightless-I, involved in gastrulation and
muscle degeneration, has Caenorhabditis elegans and human homologues. In
these highly conserved genes, two previously known gene families have been
brought together, families encoding the actin- binding proteins related to
gelsolin and the leucine-rich-repeat (LRR) group of proteins involved in
protein-protein interactions. Both these gene families exhibit
characteristics of molecular changes involving replication slippage and
exon shuffling. Phylogenetic analyses of 19 amino acid sequences of 6
related protein types indicate that actin- associated proteins related to
gelsolin are monophyletic to a common ancestor and include flightless
proteins. Conversely, comparison of 24 amino acid sequences of LRR proteins
including the flightless proteins indicates that flightless proteins are
members of a structurally related subgroup. Included in the flightless
cluster are human and mouse rsp-1 proteins involved in suppressing v-Ras
transformation of cells and the membrane-associated yeast (Saccharomyces
cerevisae) adenylate cyclase whose analogous LRRs are required for
interaction with Ras proteins. There is a strong possibility that ligands
for this group could be related and that flightless may have a similar role
in Ras signal transduction. It is hypothesized that an ancestral monomeric
gelsolin precursor protein has undergone at least four independent gene
reorganization events to account for the structural diversity of the extant
family of gelsolin-related proteins and that gene duplication and exon
shuffling events occurred prior to or at the beginning of multicellular
life, resulting in the evolution of some members of the family soon after
the appearance of actin-type proteins.

Mg(2+) at an optimal concentration of 2mM (ph 6.5) induces large increases (up to 30 percent) in the optical density of bovine heart mitochondria incubated under conditions of low ionic strength (< approx. 0.01). The increases are associated with aggregation (sticking together) of the inner membranes and are little affected by changes in the energy status of the mitochondria. Virtually all of a number of other polyvalent cations tested and Ag(+) induce increases in mitochondrial optical density similar to those induced by Mg(2+), their approximate order of concentration effectiveness in respect to Mg(2+) being: La(3+) > Pb(2+) = Cu(2+) > Cd(2+) > Zn(2+) > Ag(+) > Mn(2+) > Ca(2+) > Mg(2+). With the exception of Mg(2+), all of these cations appear to induce swelling of the mitochondria concomitant with inner membrane aggregation. The inhibitors of the adenine nucleotide transport reaction carboxyatratyloside and bongkrekic acid are capable of preventing and reversing Mg(2+)-induced aggregation at the same low concentration required for complete inhibition of phosphorylating respiration, suggesting that they inhibit the aggregation by binding to the adenine nucleotide carrier. The findings are interpreted to indicate (a) that the inner mitochondrial membrane is normally prevented from aggregating by virtue of its net negative outer surface change, (b) that the cations induce the membrane to aggregate by binding at its outer surface, decreasing the net negative charge, and (c) that carboxyatractyloside and bongkrekic acid inhibit the aggregation by binding to the outer surface of the membrane, increasing the net negative charge. 相似文献

Rates and patterns of evolution in partial sequences of five mitochondrial
genes (cytochrome b, ATPase 6, NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5, tRNA(Glu), and
the control region) were compared among taxa in the passerine bird genera
Fringilla and Carduelis. Rates of divergence do not vary significantly
among genes, even in comparisons with the control region. Rate variation
among lineages is significant only for the control region and NADH
dehydrogenase subunit 5, and patterns of variation are consistent with the
expectations of neutral theory. Base composition is biased in all genes but
is stationary among lineages, and there is evidence for directional
mutation pressure only in the control region. Despite these similarities,
patterns of substitution differ among genes, consistent with alternative
regimes of selective constraint. Rates of nonsynonymous substitution are
higher in NADH dehydrogenase subunit 5 than in other protein-coding genes,
and transitions exist in elevated proportions relative to transversions.
Transitions appear to accumulate linearly with time in tRNA(Glu), and
despite exhibiting the highest overall rate of divergence among species,
there are no transversional changes in this gene. Finally, for resolving
phylogenetic relationships among Fringilla taxa, the combined
protein-coding data are broadly similar to those of the control region in
terms of phylogenetic informativeness and statistical support.

Background
Toll like receptors (TLR) play the central role in the recognition of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs). Mutations in the TLR1, TLR2 and TLR4 genes may change the ability to recognize PAMPs and cause altered responsiveness to the bacterial pathogens.Results
The study presents association between TLR gene mutations and increased susceptibility to Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection. Novel mutations in TLR genes (TLR1- Ser150Gly and Val220Met; TLR2 – Phe670Leu) were statistically correlated with the hindrance in recognition of MAP legends. This correlation was confirmed subsequently by measuring the expression levels of cytokines (IL-4, IL-8, IL-10, IL-12 and IFN-γ) in the mutant and wild type moDCs (mocyte derived dendritic cells) after challenge with MAP cell lysate or LPS. Further in silico analysis of the TLR1 and TLR4 ectodomains (ECD) revealed the polymorphic nature of the central ECD and irregularities in the central LRR (leucine rich repeat) motifs.Conclusion
The most critical positions that may alter the pathogen recognition ability of TLR were: the 9th amino acid position in LRR motif (TLR1–LRR10) and 4th residue downstream to LRR domain (exta-LRR region of TLR4). The study describes novel mutations in the TLRs and presents their association with the MAP infection. 相似文献7.

Recent studies implicate that apelin and its receptor APJ may have important role for the modulation of angiogenesis. The aim of this study was to further characterise the regulation of apelin/APJ system in bovine ovary. Experiment 1: corpora lutea (CL) were assigned to the following stages: days 1-2, 3-4, 5-7, 8-12, 13-16, >18 (after regression) of oestrous cycle and of gravidity (month <3, 3-5, 6-7 and >8). Experiment 2: Follicles during maturation were divided into granulosa cells (GC) and theca interna (TI) and were examined separately. Classification of follicles occurred by follicle size and oestradiol-17β (E2) concentration in the follicular fluid (FF) (<0.5 ng/ml, 0.5-5 ng/ml; 5-40 ng/ml; 40-180 ng/ml; >180 ng/ml). Real-time RT-PCR (qPCR) was applied to investigate mRNA expression of examined factors. In general, the expression level of apelin during the oestrous cycle was significantly higher compared to the one during pregnancy. Apelin mRNA levels were always high during the cycle with a tendency of decrease after CL regression. The APJ mRNA in the CL was significantly up regulated on days 5-7 and 8-12 followed by a decrease on days 13-16, and further on days >18. The expression of APJ does not show any significant regulation in the CL throughout pregnancy. The expression of apelin and APJ was not statistically regulated in GC, but was significantly up regulated in follicles with an E2 concentration of more than 5 ng/ml and showed an increase according to growth and maturation of follicles. In conclusion, our data suggest that apelin/APJ system is involved in the mechanism regulating angiogenesis during follicle maturation as well as during CL formation and function in the bovine ovary. 相似文献
