福建冬青属二新种

本文描述了发现于福建的冬青科冬青属2新种——泰宁冬青Ilex tainingensis G. S. He和南平冬青I. nanpingensis G. S. He，并分别说明两者与其他近缘种的区别要点。泰宁冬青与太平山冬青I. sugerokii Maxim.的区别在于前种小枝被毛，无棱槽，叶片宽卵圆形，花淡紫色，分核表面具细条纹，背后中部有一凹槽。南平冬青与拟榕叶冬青I. subficoidea S. Y. Hu区别在于前种果为椭圆形，较大，表面光滑无腺点，果梗长于1 cm，每分核上端有2尖角，均可以区别。     

Multipoint mapping studies of six loci on chromosome 11

The six loci, beta-globin (HBBC), parathyroid hormone (PTH), oncogene c-Ha-ras-1 (HRAS1), insulin (INS), calcitonin (CAL) and catalase (CAT) loci, have been mapped to 11p in the order: CAT-CAL-PTH-HBBC-(HRAS1-INS). The purpose of the current study was to examine the linkage relationships, especially the multipoint relationships of these loci in detail. In the 18 families studied, a significant sex difference in recombination was found for the HBBC: HRAS1 linkage with more recombination in the male parent than the female parent (22 vs. 2%). The results of the multipoint analyses provided further evidence for the order CAT-CAL-PTH-HBBC-(HRAS1-INS); however, the order of the last two tightly linked loci is still not clear.     

白纹伊蚊幼虫龄期的发育历期

在实验室内20±1℃, 23±1℃, 25±1℃, 28±1℃和30±1℃恒温条件下, 观察了白纹伊蚊(Aedes albopictus)幼虫(广州株)的发育历期.幼虫的总发育历期和各龄幼虫的发育历期随温度的上升而缩短, 各龄幼虫历期在总发育历期中占有恒定的百分比, 据此计算出其捕获机率.各龄幼虫的发育历期与温度呈直线回归关系.通过积温公式, 求出各龄幼虫的积温常数.此外还探索了营养对幼虫发育历期的影响, 从而影响各龄幼虫捕获机率的计算.     

Flash fluorometer made from off-the-shelf photographic equipment to measure tissue levels of fluorescein

A device to measure fluorescein in tissue has been constructed from standard photographic equipment--an electronic strobe and a flashmeter both covered with interference filters. The instrument works well in the light and need not touch the area being measured, an advantage over existing fluorometers. The instrument has been used to measure the amount of dye in flaps in rats, pigs, and three humans. The results revealed that the amount of dye in a freshly made flap was rarely as much as in normal skin, and skin with less than 20 percent of the dye of control areas usually sloughed, although there were exceptions. In the future the instrument will be improved, and its readings will be compared to those obtained from radioactive microspheres, the present "gold standard" of techniques to measure vascularity. The instrument can be used to estimate the blood supply to any tissue and seems to be as reliable as the dermofluorometers already on the market.     

内毒素对人血小板聚集,释放的体外作用

大肠杆菌 O55B5内毒素在体外可抑制人血小板自发性聚集,并使血小板内 cAMP、钙调素明显增高,但对肾上腺素诱发的血小板聚集无作用,也不能引起血小板致密颗粒和α-颗粒的释放。此外还观察到内毒素组无血小板上清液中5-HT 含量减少。     

清醒狗短暂缺血心肌复灌注时舒缩功能的变化

在狗的心脏上装入微超声探头和高精度微压力传感器,手术后两星期,在清醒状态下给予左冠状动脉旋支阻断三分钟。在复灌注过程中,观察到血液动力学指标与收缩期心室壁厚度(WT)迅速恢复正常;但在 dWT/dt—WT 环形图上出现舒张早期异常相,其形状与缺血过程不同。低氧和急遽冠状动脉过度充盈可以产生此种异常图形。我们推测,心肌缺血可能促使一些产物的形成,复灌注时它使冠脉过度舒张,冠脉灌注增加,从而造成舒张早期急遽充盈而形成了此种异常的形图。     

Chromosome number and DNA content of tobacco cells adapted to NaCl

Cultured tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Wisconsin 38) cells were found to have altered DNA contents and chromosome numbers after adaptation to NaCl. Cells adapted to 428 mM NaCl were predominately hexaploid compared to the normal tetraploid 2N(2C)=4X=48 chromosome number of unadapted cells. Enrichment of the cell population for hexaploid cells occurred only after exposure to higher NaCl (428 mM), not lower levels of NaCl (171 mM). The majority of adapted cells remain hexaploid for at least 25 cell generations after removal from NaCl exposure. Adapted cell populations were found to have fewer cells with highly polyploid (2N96) nuclei. Salt tolerance of hexaploid cells was not found to be significantly greater than that of tetraploid cells. Cells with higher ploidy levels were less salt tolerant. It is suggested that high levels of NaCl induce polyploidization and that exposure to NaCl selects against cells with very high ploidy levels.     

Inhibition of glycoprotein oligosaccharide processing in vitro and in influenza-virus-infected cells by alpha-D-mannopyranosylmethyl-p-nitrophenyltriazene.

The effects of alpha-D-mannopyranosylmethyl-p-nitrophenyltriazene (MMNT) on mannosidases involved in asparagine-linked oligosaccharide processing were investigated. MMNT was found to inhibit the activity of rat liver Golgi alpha-mannosidase I in a concentration-dependent manner (50% inhibition with 0.18 mM-MMNT), whereas rat liver endoplasmic-reticulum alpha-mannosidase appeared to be resistant (less than 5% inhibition at 1 mM-MMNT). Jack-bean alpha-mannosidase was also sensitive to inhibition by MMNT (50% inhibition with 0.32 mM-MMNT). Treatment of influenza-virus-infected chick-embryo cells with 1 mM-MMNT led to a decrease in the formation of complex-type asparagine-linked oligosaccharides and an accumulation of high-mannose-type oligosaccharides with the composition Man8(GlcNAc)2 and Man7(GlcNAc)2 on the viral glycoproteins. The biological activities of influenza-virus haemagglutinin and neuraminidase synthesized in the presence of 1 mM-MMNT remained unchanged, but the virus was less infectious than the control.
