On the classification of Calligonum juochiangense and C. pumilum (Polygonaceae)

After observing specimens of Calligonum pumilum Losinsk. and C. juochiangense Y. X. Liou in both the field and in herbarium collections, it was found that the morphological characters of these two species are quite different, especially with respect of the twisted direction of fruit ribs, number of bristle rows along each rib, rigidity and degree of interweaving of bristles, as well as their geographic distribution. Therefore, it is concluded that C. pumilum and C. juochiangense should be accepted as two independent species.     

感染环形泰勒焦虫(Theileria annulata)的牛外周血白细胞的形态观察

用光镜及扫描电镜观察了体外高代培养的含牛焦虫颗粒的牛外周血白细胞的形态及在细胞周期中细胞表面的特征性变化。这种经多年传代的含虫的牛外周血白细胞恢复了分裂和繁殖的能力,目前已成为较稳定的细胞系。细胞表面具多种伪足突起,如叶状、丝状及绒毛状。细胞周期中备期细胞表面的主要特征是:S期:细胞平扁,边缘具薄的时状伪足及丝状伪足;G_2期:细胞中部隆起,表面具少量绒毛状伪足;G_1期:绒毛状结构少或无,而出现丝状及小的叶状伪足,细胞仍保持球形;M期:细胞球形,表面密被以绒毛。作者根据扫描电镜的观察认为光镜下所观察的两类细胞,实际上是反映了一种细胞处于不同发育阶段时的特征。     

A review of the distribution of all species of deer (Tragulidae, Moschidae and Cervidae) in China

Twenty-one species of deer occur in China: one species of Tragulidae, three species of Moschidae and 17 species of Cervidae. The foundation of this review is the research conducted in the early 1940s by Allen, combined with the research and investigation by the authors and other Chinese specialists since that time. This paper focuses on the tentative distribution of these species of deer for future research efforts.     

肾神经在扩张心房时对尿量和尿钠排出的作用

单侧肾去神经的麻醉狗,用乳胶小囊扩张肺静脉-心房连接部,观察到神经完好肾的尿流量与排钠量均显著增加(P<0.01);去神经肾的尿流量仍显著增加(P<0 01),但排钠量无明显变化(P>0.05);两侧肾的肾小球滤过率(GFR)及肾血浆流量(RPF)均保持稳定;神经完好肾的静脉血浆肾素活性(PRA)及血管紧张素Ⅱ水平(PAⅡ)均明显降低,PAⅡ降低的幅度与尿流量增加的幅度无相关(r=-0.2975,P>0.05);与排钠量增加的幅度也无相关(r=-0.2359,P>0.05);去神经肾的PRA和PAⅡ都没有显著变化。说明在刺激心房感受器引起的利尿与尿钠排泄的反应中,肾神经主要促进肾对尿钠的排出。肾神经的这种作用既不是通过改变GFR和RPF,也不是抑制肾素的释放,而可能是由于直接影响肾小管对钠的重吸收。

Directional Ca2+ effect on stimulation of secretion of common mucins and unique sulphate-rich components from chicken trachea in vitro

High submucosal Ca2+ (3.6-18 mM) significantly increased the secretion of a common high molecular weight fibrillar mucin (approx. Mr is greater than 2.10(6)) and also elicited the secretion of an additional low molecular weight component (approx. Mr 325,000). Low luminal Ca2+ (0.018 mM) also significantly increased the secretion of a common high molecular weight gelatinous mucin (approx. Mr is greater than 2.10(6)) and elicited the secretion of an additional low molecular weight component (approx. Mr 46,200). The additional low molecular weight components were more heavily sulphated (6.7 and 4.2%) than common high molecular weight mucins (2.1 and 1%). The low molecular weight components and high molecular weight mucins were secreted as aggregates which could be dissociated by EGTA. The low molecular weight components and high molecular weight mucins were different in the number of their glycoprotein constituents and in the ion-exchange chromatographic profiles and the carbohydrate and ester sulphate residue content of their acidic glycoproteins.

蛙卵黄粒晶形区向非晶区过渡的电镜观察及伪彩色图象处理

用水溶性氨基树脂作为电镜标本包埋介质包埋早期卵裂时的黑龙江林蛙卵;用透射电镜观察了卵黄粒晶形体向非晶区转变的过程;一部分电镜照片用伪彩色图象处理技术转换成彩色照片以提高其清晰度。晶形体向非晶结构转化主要有两种形式:1.沿晶形体表面成排地脱落晶分子并在晶形体表面形成台阶样结构;2.晶分子参差不齐地成群脱离晶形体并在晶形区与非晶区之间形成一个似晶非晶的过渡区。脱离晶形体后的晶分子参加到非晶区,使深色亚区扩大并在其中酝酿成“微滴”样结构。若干“微滴”汇合并转变成微泡。伪彩色图象处理能较清楚地显示出卵脂蛋白半分子(一个亚单位)独立脱离晶形体的现象。讨论了引起晶分子脱离晶形体的可能??原因。

Analysis of cell-growth-phase-related variations in hyaluronate synthase activity of isolated plasma-membrane fractions of cultured human skin fibroblasts.

Hyaluronate synthase activity is localized exclusively in plasma-membrane fractions of cultured human skin fibroblasts. The enzyme activity of plasma membranes prepared from exponential-growth-phase cells was about 6.5 times that of stationary-growth-phase cells. Hyaluronate synthase from exponential-growth-phase cells exhibited lower Km and higher Vmax. values for both UDP-N-acetylglucosamine and UDP-glucuronic acid and higher rate of elongation of hyaluronate chains compared with the enzyme from stationary-growth-phase cells. Hyaluronate synthase exhibited an extremely short half-life, 2.2 h and 3.8 h respectively when cells were treated with cycloheximide and actinomycin D. The cell-growth-phase-dependent variations in hyaluronate synthase activity appear to be due to its high turnover rate as well as due to some post-translational modification of the enzyme protein as cells progress from early exponential to stationary growth phase. The isolated plasma membranes contained a protein (Mr approx. 450,000) that was selectively autophosphorylated from [gamma-32P]ATP in vitro in the presence of hyaluronate precursors in the reaction mixture and that also exhibited some hyaluronate-synthesis-related properties. The 32P-labelled protein isolated from plasma membranes of exponentially growing cells expressed an efficient UDP-[14C]glucuronic acid- and UDP-N-acetyl[3H]glucosamine-binding activity and was able to synthesize oligosaccharides (Mr 5000) of [14C]glucuronic acid and N-acetyl[3H]glucosamine residues. The corresponding protein of stationary-growth-phase cells, which expressed much higher nucleotide-sugar-precursor-binding activity, appeared to have lost its oligosaccharide-synthesizing activity.
