色木槭的变异式样及其分类学

Butanol Extract of Acanthopanax senticosus (Rupr. et Maxim.) Harms Alleviates Atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E-Deficient Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet

This study investigated the effect of butanol extract of AS (ASBUE) on atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE^−/−) mice. The mice were administered ASBUE (390 or 130 mg/kg/day) or rosuvastatin (RSV) via oral gavage for eight weeks. In ApoE^−/− mice, ASBUE suppressed the abnormal body weight gain and improved serum and liver biochemical indicators. ASBUE remarkably reduced the aortic plaque area, improved liver pathological conditions, and lipid metabolism abnormalities, and altered the intestinal microbiota structure in ApoE^−/− mice. In the vascular tissue of ASBUE-treated mice, P-IKKβ, P-NFκB, and P-IκBα levels tended to decrease, while IκB-α increased in high fat-diet-fed atherosclerotic mice. These findings demonstrated the anti-atherosclerotic potential of ASBUE, which is mediated by the interaction between the gut microbiota and lipid metabolism and regulated via the Nuclear Factor-kappa B (NF-κB) pathway. This work paves the groundwork for subsequent studies to develop innovative drugs to treat atherosclerosis.     

苦瓜和瓜蒌体内皮质醇含量的测定

利用灵敏度高,专一性强的放射免疫法（ＲＩＡ）测定了苦瓜和瓜萎不同器官中皮质醇的含量。结果表明：苦瓜和瓜萎各器官均含有皮质醇,且含量在５０～４５０ｎｇ／ｇ．ＦＷ;顶芽中含量最高,其次是花器官;苦瓜和瓜篓雌花皮质醇含量明显高于雄花,且雌花在授粉后当天含量最高,说明皮质醇可能在植物的生长发育过程中起某种作用。     

Rhododendrol biosynthesis and metabolism in Acer nikoense callus

Cell suspensions derived from Acer nikoense callus, not containing (S)-rhododendrol, converted 4-(p-hydroxyphenyl)-2- butanone into (R)-, (S)-rhododendrol and their glycosides. (R)- and (S)-rhododendrol formed was only detected in the culture medium and their glycosides only in the cells. The former compound disappeared within a short time and the latter one also tended to decrease during prolonged culture. Quantitative analysis of rhododendrol glycosides in the callus showed that most of them were (S)-rhododendrol 2-O--D-glucopyranoside and its content was much lower than that of the original plants. © Rapid Science Ltd. 1998     

不同理化因子对雪莲培养细胞中黄酮类形成的影响

研究了不同理化因子对水母雪莲(Saussurea medusa Maxim)愈伤组织生长及黄酮类化合物生物合成的影响。结果表明,有利于细胞生长及黄酮形成的合适温度为25℃。白光对愈伤组织生长无促进作用,但有利于黄酮的形成。培养基中添加1mg／L NAA和O．2mg／L的KT组合对细胞的生长较有促进作用。5％蔗糖和1％葡萄糖的组合有利于细胞的生长和黄酮的形成。用⁶⁰C0-γ射线辐照愈伤组织,在剂量为4000Gy的条件下,获得一个合成黄酮能力高于原愈伤组织70％的细胞系。用高效液相和紫外分光光度法,测定离体培养光照条件下干细胞总黄酮的含量为3．2％,是暗培养的4．4倍。培养温度25℃时干细胞黄酮的含量为2．02％,分别为20℃,35℃时的5倍和3．2倍。     

唐古特大黄五个居群的核型

报道了唐古特大黄(Rheum tanguticum)5个居群的染色体数目和核型,结果如下:大武、柯曲、达卡三个居群均为2n=2x=22=2sm 20m;吉卡居群为2n=2x=22=20m 2M;松潘居群为2n=2x=22=2sm 18m 2M。大武,柯曲和吉卡居群核型类型属于1A型,达卡和松潘居群属于2A型。Q型聚类分析结果表明,5个居群在核型上存在一定分化,这可能是由不同的生境造成的。     

垂花青兰花蜜腺的发育解剖学研究

垂花青兰（Dracocephalum nutans Linn.）花蜜腺分布于子房基部的花托上,盘状蜜腺的上部裂成三小一大的四枚裂片,基部在膨大的花托外环绕一圈。蜜腺组织由分泌表皮、产蜜组织和维管束三部分组成,是典型的结构蜜腺;组织化学染色显示淀粉粒动态明显,因此又属淀粉蜜腺。在发育的过程中细胞液泡化动态明显,且淀粉粒和蛋白质具有明显的消长变化,蜜汁通过气孔器和表皮细胞的角质层泌出。     

肾叶天胡荽精油的超临界CO2萃取、成分分析及杀虫活性初探

采用正交实验设计,对肾叶天胡荽（Hydrocotyle wigordi Maxim．）精油超临界CO2萃取条件进行了优化,并用GC—MS分析技术对精油的化学成分进行了鉴定,初步探讨了肾叶天胡荽精油对小菜蛾2龄幼虫的触杀活性。结果表明,肾叶天胡荽精油超临界CO2萃取的最佳条件为萃取压力35MPa、萃取温度50℃、解析压力5MPa、解析温度40℃、萃取时间75min、CO2流量34—36L·h^-1,精油得率最高可达5．32％。从精油中共鉴定出19种成分,总相对含量达到89．266％,主要成分为邻苯二甲酸二辛酯（64．302％）。用超临界CO2萃取技术提取的肾叶天胡荽精油对小菜蛾2龄幼虫有一定的触杀作用,20g·L^-1精油对小菜蛾2龄幼虫的24h校正死亡率高达90．00％。     

黑龙江椴树属植物叶表皮形态学观察

利用扫描电子显微镜对紫椴（Tilia amurensis Rupr.）及糠椴（T. mandshurica Rupr.et Maxim.）叶片的微观形态结构特征进行观察,并进行微观形态结构的比较研究。研究结果表明紫椴与糠椴叶片上表皮微观形态相同,而下表皮气孔器的形态类型、蜡质纹饰和角质膜的形态特征、单位面积上星状毛的数量均表现出很大的差异。这些微观形态差异可作为区分紫椴和糠椴的分类学依据。
