实时荧光定量PCR检测PrP基因在金黄地鼠脑组织的动态表达

金黄地鼠是研究动物传染性海绵状脑病的理想模型动物之一,其脑组织内朊蛋白基因动态表达数据的测定对探讨该类疾病的发生、发展和分子致病机理具有重要意义。我们利用实时荧光定量RT-PCR技术,对不同年龄金黄地鼠大脑、小脑、丘脑和脑干PrP基因的表达进行了定量。结果发现,脑的四个检测部位都呈现高的表达量,但是同一年龄段不同组织每纳克总RNA中朊蛋白基因的表达量和每毫克组织中朊蛋白基因的表达量有显著的差别,不同组织在不同年龄出现表达高峰。本研究的结果对于探讨朊蛋白的基本功能和脑组织在传染性海绵状脑病病理发生中的作用,提供了基础数据。     

应用PCR检测鸭肠炎病毒弱毒在鸡胚体内的分布

根据GenBank已发表的鸭肠炎病毒（DEV）UL6基因的部分核苷酸序列，设计并合成一对引物．以鸭肠炎病毒中国商品化疫苗毒蚀斑纯化株（DEV Clone-03）DNA为模板，经PCR扩增出预期516bp的目的片段。将此片段插入克隆载体质粒pMD18-T，并进行序列测定，序列比较结果显示，此段序列与参考序列完全一致。用PCR检测DEV Clone-03在鸡胚体内的分布情况显示，接毒死亡鸡胚的尿囊膜、心、肝、脾、肺、肾和肌肉皮肤内均存在病毒。PCR敏感试验表明此方法可以检测到100μL尿囊液中提取的10^-3稀释的病毒DNA，相当于0．2个EID50病毒量的DNA。     

黑木耳胞外酶活变化与栽培性状比较的研究

研究了黑木耳10个菌株胞外酶活性及与栽培性状和产量的关系,结果表明,胞外漆酶、多酚氧化酶活性的变化趋势大致相似,酶活与栽培产量呈正相关,相关系数为0.823(7号菌株除外),酶活性相对较高的菌株(3、4、8号),栽培中产量相对较高。纤维素酶活性高峰时间出现较漆酶、多酚氧化酶早,且酶活性高峰出现早的菌株菌丝长速较快。蛋白酶活与栽培产量呈一定负相关性,相关系数为-0.700(6号菌株除外),蛋白酶活最低的3号菌株,栽培产量最高;而活性较高的5、9号菌株栽培产量较低。     

叶面喷施硼酸对苹果果实硼和钙含量的影响

 以‘富士’苹果为试材，通过幼果期、果实膨大期和果实成熟期叶面喷施硼酸，研究硼对果实硼和钙含量的影响。结果表明：从叶面喷硼对果实吸收硼的短期效果来看，果实发育的不同时期叶面喷施硼酸均促进果实对硼、钙的吸收，并且处理的效果顺序是：幼果期>果实膨大期>果实成熟期；在果实采收时硼含量为：果实膨大期>果实成熟期>幼果期。不同时期叶面喷施硼酸均提高了果肉细胞中水溶态硼、半束缚态硼和束缚态硼的绝对含量，从3种形态硼所占的比例来看，随着果实不断发育，水溶态硼和半束缚态硼比例升高，而束缚态硼比例下降。     

Renoprotective effects of sesamin on renal hypertensive and hyperlipidemic rats

AIM: To investigate the effects of sesamin on progression of renal injury in renal hypertensive and hyperlipidemic rats (RHHR). METHODS: RHHR was induced by 2K1C and high lipid baitvessel. After 7 weeks of intragastric administration with sesamin, the contents of serum creatinine (Scr), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), 24 h urinary protein excretion (UPE) were measured. In addition, the activity of total antioxidative capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD), the concentrations of malondialdehyde (MDA), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), and the nitric oxide synthase (NOS) and nitric oxide (NO) levels in renal homogenate were measured. RESULTS: Compared with the model group, seasamin (in 100 mg·kg-1 and 33 mg·kg-1 groups) evidently decreased the contents of Scr, BUN, UP and the concentration of MDA, iNOS, H2O2 in renal tissure. It also improved the levels of NO, cNOS and activity of SOD, T-AOC in renal tissure. CONCLUSION: Sesamin ameliorates hypertensive and hyperlipidemic-induced renal injury, probably by enhancing antioxidative activity, scavenging hydroxyl radical and restraining iNOS level.     

Effects of atorvastatin on cardiac myocyte hypertrophy of neonatal rat induced by angiotensinⅡ in vitro and TLR4 expression

AIM: To assess effects of atorvastatin (Ator) on cardiac myocytes (CM) hypertrophy of neonatal rat induced by angiotensinⅡ (AngⅡ) in vitro and Toll like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression for theoretical bases of preventing and treating myocardial hypertrophy.METHODS: CM of neonatal Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were isolated with trypsin digestion method and those growth-arrested cells were stimulated with 10^-7 mol/L AngⅡ in the presence of various concentrations of Ator.The method of coomassie brilliant blue was adopted to evaluate the protein contents of CM.The changes in β-MHC,AT₁ receptor and TLR4 mRNA expression were observed by RT-PCR.RESULTS: ① AngⅡ increased the protein content of CM and β-MHC mRNA expression significantly,upregulated AT₁ receptor and TLR4 gene expression.② In a dose-dependent manner,Ator inhibited the increases in the protein contents of CM and β-MHC mRNA expression induced by AngⅡ.③ In a dose-dependent manner,Ator downregulated the AT₁ receptor and TLR4 mRNA expression of CM hypertrophy of neonatal rat induced by AngⅡ.CONCLUSION: Ator inhibits CM hypertrophy,downregulates the AT₁ receptor and TLR4 gene expression.

Spatial-Temporal Changes in Grain Production,Consumption and Driving Mechanism in China

The spatial-temporal patterns of grain production and consumption have an important influence on the effective national grain supply on condition of tight balance in the total grain amount in China. In this paper, we analyze the spatial-temporal patterns of grain production, consumption and the driving mechanism for their evolution processes in China. The results indicate that both gravity centers of grain production and consumption in China moved toward the northern and eastern regions, almost in the same direction. The coordination of grain production and consumption increased slightly from 1995 to 2007 but decreased from 2000 to 2007. There is a spatial difference between the major districts of output increase and the strong growth potential in grain consumption, which indicates an increasing difficulty in improving the regional coordination of grain production and consumption. The movement of the gravity center of grain production is significantly correlated with regional differences in grain production policy, different economic development models, and spatial disparity of land and water resource use. For grain consumption, the main driving factors include rapid urbanization, the upgrade of food consumption structure, and distribution of food industries.
