高原低氧对机体无氧代谢阈值的影响

为了探讨高原低氧对机体无氧代谢阈值(AT)的影响,本研究采用Wasserman无创性方法,分别测定了11名新兵在平原(四川淮口,海拔500m)和经空运进驻高原 (西藏错那,海拔4370m)后的第3、5、7和14天的AT。结果表明:新兵进驻高原后AT由平原的813.6±147.4kg·m/min降低到395.5±194.5 kg·m/min(P<0.01);高原低氧引起AT的降低幅度与受试者平原AT的高低呈正相关(r=0.933,P<0.01);进驻高原后第3、5、7天AT维持在较低水平,随后呈上升趋势。但移居高原1年战士的AT仍低于平原水平(P<0.05)。提示,高原低氧能够显著地降低机体的AT,并且AT越高的个体进驻高原后受低氧环境的影响程度越大。     

Isolation and purification of deoxyribonucleosides from 90% 13C-enriched DNA of algal cells and their characterization by 1H and 13C NMR.

13C-enriched deoxyribonucleosides have been isolated from the DNA of Algal cells grown in an atmosphere of 90% 13C-labelled carbon dioxide. The 13C enriched DNA was quantitatively hydrolysed with DNase I, snake venom phosphodiesterase I and alkaline phosphatase of intestinal mucosa. The resulting deoxyribonucleosides were separated by preparative reversed-phase high pressure liquid chromatography in 60 minutes with detection by ultraviolet absorption at 254 nm. The final products were obtained in milligram quantities in high purity and in high yield. The 1H resonances of the base and sugar protons of these deoxyribonucleosides appear as well resolved multiplets in the 600 MHz NMR spectrum, due to the extensive 1H-13C couplings. Similarly, the 13C resonances of these deoxyribonucleosides appear as multiplets in the 75.5 MHz 13C NMR spectrum, due to 13C-13C couplings. The 1H-13C and 13C-13C coupling constants were also measured and tabulated. The isotopic enrichment of 13C these deoxyribonucleosides was obtained by integration of the 1H and/or 13C NMR spectra. It was found that the enrichment varied from carbon to carbon and species to species in the range of 70-89%, suggesting differential uptake and assimilation of 90% 13CO2 during metabolism pathways. This protocol provides experimentally useful quantities of 13C-enriched deoxyribonucleosides, which may be incorporated into site-specifically labeled oligonucleotides by chemical synthesis.     

Comparison of the 13C-n.m.r. spectra of gangliosides GM1 with those of GM1-oligosaccharide and asialo-GM1

The ¹³C-n.m.r. spectra of asialo-G_M1 and G_M1-oligosaccharide are completely assigned and compared to those previously found for intact G_M1 and for the series G_M4, G_M3, G_M2, G_M1, G_D1a, G_D1b, and G_T1b. Removal of the ceramide residue from G_M1 liberated a free, reducing aldehyde group, which was reflected in a doubling of the ¹³C-n.m.r. signals assignable to the d-glucose residue because of α,β equilibrium. The spectrum of asialo-G_M1 lacks the resonances from the sialic acid residue, as expected; in addition, several resonances from the neutral gangliotetraglycosyl residue shifted to different field positions after removal of sialic acid from G_M1. These resonances include that of C-4 of the inner β-d-galactosyl residue, and C-1 of the 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-galactosyl residue that is near the site of attachment of the sialosyl residue. The differences between the chemical shifts of the carbon resonances of oligomeric and monomeric saccharides, termed linkage shifts, provide a quantitative assignment aid. They are ～ $\text{1}\text{3}$ of those for residues linked to sialic acid than those for residues linked to the neutral hexose chain. Correlations among linkage shifts for pairs of glycosidically-linked carbon atoms for asialo-G_M1 and G_M1-oligosaccharide were compared with those for the series of gangliosides G_M4 to G_T1b, and differences are noted for resonances for carbon atoms near the sialic acid residue. The spectrum of ganglioside G_M1b, a positional isomer of G_M1 whose ¹³C-n.m.r. spectrum has not yet been observed, is predicted.     

白翅叶蝉Empoasca subrufa Melichar的研究

白翅叶蝉是福建省水稻的重要害虫,苗期受害严重者,整片稻苗苍白,甚至枯死;早稻孕穗、抽穗期常大量发生为害,影响谷粒饱满度,造成减产。福州和闽侯地区一年发生4代,部分5代。成虫越冬。冬季日平均温度达11℃以上时仍能取食为害。春季成虫侵入稻田,4月下旬前后大量产卵,5月中旬虫数激增,5月下旬或6月初达到高峰。早稻收割时由于农事活动引致若虫大量死亡。晚稻田于8、9月虫数较多,但危害不如早稻严重。10月中旬以后成虫逐渐离开稻田,迁往越冬场所。 寄主植物幼嫩茂密和较大湿度的小生境有利于白翅叶蝉的发育繁殖。大发生的气候因子主要是春季多雨。适宜的温湿度范围为温度20—25℃,相对湿度85—90%。 DDT单独使用或DDT与666混用防治白翅叶蝉都能收到满意的效果。早稻秧田宜在播种后两周施药防治;本田于5月中旬虫口密度开始增长之际施药,亦能抑制为害。冬季小麦出土以前清除田边杂草,也是一项有效的防治措施

Hepatopancreas and ovary are sites of vitellogenin synthesis as determined from partial cDNA encoding of vitellogenin in the marine shrimp,Penaeus vannamei

Summary

The site of yolk protein synthesis in crustaceans has long been a subject of controversy. A portion of the vitellogenin gene structure was reported recently in a freshwater giant prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) and black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodori), in which the hepatopancreas was confirmed to be the extraovarian site of vitellogenin synthesis. The ovary is also frequently reported to be the site of yolk protein synthesis in penaeid shrimp. The same PCR product was obtained using cDNA from the hepatopancreas or the ovary as a template. The deduced amino acid sequence of Vg in P. vannamei showed high identities of 57% and 78% with those from M. rosenbergii and P. monodon, respectively. The same location of the intron in the sequenced region of genomic DNA was also found between these three species. We therefore concluded that the hepatopancreas and ovary are sites of vitellogenin synthesis in P. vannamei. The partial structure of the vitellogenin gene is further presented.
