Phylogenetic relastionships within the family pomacentridae teleostei: Perciformes) were inferred by analyzing a portion of the 12S mitochondrial ribosomal DNA gene. Thirty-four pomacentrid species were sequenced for this study and the resulting data were combined with previously published pomacentrid sequence data to form a combined matrix of 53 pomacentrids representing 48 different species in 18 genera. Four outgroup species were also drawn from published data; these taxa were taken from the other three putative families of the suborder Labroidei, as well as a single representative of the family Moronidae. The data set contained 1053 data columns after alignment according to ribosomal secondary structure and the removal of all ambiguously aligned positions. The resulting strict consensus tree topology generally agreed with the previous molecular hypothesis, and recovers a monophyletic Pomacentridae and subfamily Amphiprioninae. The two other subfamilies included, Chrominae and Pomacentrinae, were found to be polyphyletic. A monophyletic group consisting of the Amphiprioninae, Pomacentrus, Acanthochromis, Amblyglyphidodon, Neoglyphidodon, Chrysiptera, Neopomacentrus, and Teixeirichthys was found. This group was recovered as the sister group to a clade consisting of a paraphyletic Chromis and a monophyletic Dascyllus. A sister-group relationship between the genus Pomacentrus and the subfamily Amphiprioninae was observed. 相似文献

Despite the improvement of strategies against cancer therapy, the multidrug resistance (MDR)is the critical problem for successful
cancer therapy. Recurrent cancers after initial treatment with chemotherapy are generally refractory to second treatments
with these anticancer therapies. Therefore, it is necessary to elucidate the therapy-resistant mechanism for development of
effective therapeutic modalities against tumors. Here we demonstrate a phase-specific chemotherapy resistance due to epidermal
growth factor receptor (EGFR) in human breast cancer cells. Thymidine-induced G1-arrested cultures showed upregulated chemosensitivity,
whereas S-phase arrested cells were more resistant to chemotherapeutic agents. Overexpression of EGFR promoted the MDR phenotypes
in breast cancer cells via accelerating the G1/S phase transition, whereas depletion of EGFR exerted the opposite effects.
Furthermore, CyclinD1, a protein related to cell cycle, was demonstrated to be involved in above EGFR-mediated effects since
EGFR increased the expression of CyclinD1, and the specific RNA interference against CyclinD1 could primarily abolish the
EGFR-induced MDR phenotypes. These data provide new insights into the mode by which MDR breast cancers evade cytoxic attacks
from chemotherapeutic agents and also suggest a role for EGFR-CyclinD1 axis in this process. 相似文献

A new species of Clariger Jordan & Snyder, 1901 was collected from northern Taiwan. The genus was previously known only from Japanese waters. This discovery is the first formal and southernmost record of these marine gobies from the waters of subtropical Taiwan. The new species, Clariger taiwanensissp. n., is distinguished from its congeners by a unique combination of features: (1) fin rays: dorsal-fin rays III, I/8; anal-fin rays modally I/8; and pectoral-fin rays modally 19 (2+16+1); (2) longitudinal dermal ridge on head with 6 barbels; and (3) specific coloration pattern: head and trunk dark brown with scattered pale spots and blotches; cheek, ventral portion of head sometimes pale with deep brown spots; pectoral-fin base with a dark brown band; and caudal fin mostly dark brown proximally and with alternating and irregular dark brown and pale bands distally. A diagnostic key to all nominal species from Japan and Taiwan is provided. 相似文献

Antifreeze protein(afp) was purified from the heat stable proteins in the leaves of Ammopiptanthus mongolicus (Maxim.) Cheng f. by two-dimensional electrophoresis-electrophoretic elution. Its molecular weight and pi are about 40 kD and 9.0 respectively, and its thermal hysteresis activity (THA) is 0.9 ℃ at 20 g/L. afp is different from other antifreeze proteins. The N-terminal 20 amino acids of afp is SDDLSFTFNKFVPCQTDILF. alp is abundant in leaves and may play an important role in the antifreeze process in A. mongolicus during the period of ovenwintering. 相似文献

The mechanism of cell cycle arrest of tumor cells induced by ganoderic acid Me (GA-Me) is not understood. In this work, GA-Me was found to possess remarkable cytotoxicity on highly metastatic lung carcinoma 95-D cell line in both dose- and time-dependent manners. The effect of GA-Me on cell cycle arrest was found in 95-D, p53-null lung cancer cells H1299, HCT-116 p53+/+ and HCT-116 p53?/? human colon cancer cells. To obtain an insight into the role of p53 in cell cycle arrest by GA-Me, 95-D, H1299, HCT-116 p53+/+ and HCT-116 p53?/? cells were used for further investigation. GA-Me arrested cell cycle at G1 phase in 95-D and HCT-116 p53+/+ cells while S phase or G1/S transition arrest in H1299 and HCT-116 p53?/? cells. The results suggested that p53 may be a target of GA-Me, and it may be looked at as a new promising candidate for the treatment of carcinoma cells. 相似文献

Biogeographic studies are important for understanding the natural history of faunas. To comprehend the geographical patterns of genetic variation in anurans in Taiwan, we investigated the genetic structure of Sylvirana latouchii (Anura, Ranidae) from 31 populations by using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome b sequences. A neighbor-joining tree of 38 haplotypes revealed three major divergences in Taiwanese S. latouchii: the northern, western, and eastern-and-southern clades. Each clade was restricted to a single geographical district and showed obvious differentiation. The patterns of geographical divergence in this species reflect common historical events experienced by other native animals distributed in Taiwan. The order of divergence times between clades was inferred using a molecular clock test. The population relationship of S. latouchii between Taiwan and mainland China is discussed. Further study employing more populations of S. latouchii from mainland China is necessary to clarify the original geographical patterns and migratory history of this species. 相似文献

The conventional protein chromatography technique was adopted to purify the antifreeze proteins (AFPs) from the leaves of Ammopiptanthus mongolicus ( Maxim. ) Cheng f. Two bands on native PAGE gel showed thermal hysteresis activity, one was band Bi, whose thermal hysteresis was 0.46 cE at 8 g/L, which showed two bands (67 kD, 21 kD) on SDS-PAGE gel; the other was B3, whose thermal hysteresis was 0.45 cE at 10 g/L, and it contained only a single protein (39.8 kD). Both B1 and B3 are not glycoproteins, because neither do they interact with Shift-reagent, nor show ultraviolet characteristics of a typical glycoprotein. 相似文献

Phylogeography of the fanged dicroglossine frog, Limnonectes fujianensis (Anura, Ranidae), in Taiwan
A phylogenetic analysis of Taiwanese fanged dicroglossine frog, Limnonectes fujianensis (Anura, Ranidae), was conducted to examine its genetic diversification using sequence data from a portion of the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) cytochrome b sequences. We collected genetic data from 200 individuals at 23 localities in Taiwan and three localities in China. A neighbor-joining tree of 39 haplotypes revealed two clades in Taiwan and a clade in China, each showing restricted geographical distribution. The pattern of geographical divergence suggests a single invasion into Taiwan. Divergence times between clades were inferred using molecular clock tests. The population relationship of L. fujianensis between Taiwan and mainland China, and the phylogenetic relationships with its congeners, e.g., L. bannaensis, L. fragilis and L. kuhlii, were obtained and discussed. 相似文献
