进行了安普霉素耐药大肠杆菌耐药表型的研究.采用常规方法和生化鉴定管对有过安普霉素用药史的鸡场分离的鸡源病原性大肠杆菌进行鉴定,并用试管二倍稀释法测定其最低抑菌浓度(MIC),筛选出鸡源安普霉素耐药大肠杆菌;采用药敏纸片法研究了这些耐药菌对安普霉素等14种抗菌药物的敏感性.共筛选出7株对安普霉素耐药的鸡源性大肠杆菌,这些耐药菌株全部对安普霉素、妥布霉素、奈啶酸、多西环素和阿莫西林耐药;大部分对庆大霉素、链霉素、卡那霉素、壮观霉素也呈现耐药.对新霉素的耐药较低,对阿米卡星高度敏感.部分交叉耐药现象的存在揭示对安普霉素等氨基糖苷类药物产生耐药性的菌株,其他抗生素也可能对它们失去疗效.     

Effects of homocysteine on number and activity of endothelial progenitor cells from peripheral blood

AIM: To investigate whether homocysteine (Hcy) has influences on endothelial progenitor cell (EPCs) number and activity from peripheral blood. METHODS: Total mononuclear cells (MNCs) were plated on fibronectin-coated culture dishes and cultured for 7 days, and then attached cells were stimulated with Hcy or vehicle control for 6 h, 12 h, 24 h and 48 h. The adhesion, proliferation, migration and in vitro vasculogenesis activity of EPCs were assayed, respectively. RESULTS: Incubation of isolated human MNCs with Hcy dose and time-dependently decreased the number of EPCs with maximum at 200 μmol/L for 24 hours (35.7±6.7 vs 62.5±10.6， P＜0.01). In addition, Hcy impaired EPC proliferative (0.531±0.061 vs 0.328±0.055， P＜0.05), migratory (26.3±6.4 vs 6.4±3.7， P＜0.01), adhesive (33.1±8.1 vs 17.4±7.5， P＜0.01) and vasculogenesis capacity (25.4±9.1 vs 10.4±4.7， P＜0.01) in a dose and time-dependent manner. CONCLUSION: It is suggested that Hcy may result in the reduction of EPCs and decrease EPC functional activity.     

Antisense c-myc sensitizes osteosarcoma cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis

AIM: To down-regulate expression of c-myc through antisense therapy and to investigate its effect on the sensitivity of osteosarcoma MG-63 cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. METHODS: The recombinant adenovirus (Ad-Asc-myc) encoding antisense c-myc fragment was constructed and transfected into osteosarcoma MG-63 cells in vitro in order to down-regulate the expression of c-myc, and the change in the sensitivity to cisplatin-induced apoptosis was observed. MTT, Western blot, RT-PCR, flow cytometry (FCM) and electron microscope were used to evaluate tumor cell proliferation in vitro, genes expression related to apoptosis regulation and effects on the sensitivity of osteosarcoma MG-63 cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis. RESULTS: Ad-Asc-myc down-regulated the expression of c-myc protein after transfected MG-63 cells for 48 h, combined with the treatment of 2.0 mg/L cisplatin for 2 h inhibited tumor cell proliferation in vitro by 38.0%. RT-PCR revealed that Ad-Asc-myc down-regulated the expression of Bcl-2 and up-regulated the expression of Bax. No appreciable change was observed in the expression of E2F-1. FCM showed that Ad-Asc-myc induced apoptosis in intransfected cells, and rendered it more sensitive to cisplatin. CONCLUSION: Antisense c-myc is able per se to induce apoptosis and sensitize osteosarcoma cells to cisplatin-induced apoptosis.     

Manumycin inhibits activity of pancreatic duct cancer cell line Panc-1 via inducing apoptosis

AIM: In this study, we investigated the anticancer effect and mechanisms of manumycin on pancreatic cancer cell line-Panc-1 and the role of p38MAPK pathway in apoptosis. METHODS: The test of anticancer effect was performed by MTT assay. Apoptosis was induced in the cells by manumycin and then treated with SB203580, a specific p38MAPK inhibitor. A quantitative caspase-3 activity assay kit was used in this experiment. RESULTS: Manumycin (6 μmol/L, 18 μmol/L, 54 μmol/L) significantly inhibited cell growth of pancreatic cancer cell line Panc-1. The inhibition rates 24 h after treatment with 6 μmol/L, 18 μmol/L and 54 μmol/L manumycin were 8.9%, 21.9% and 67.0%, respectively. Compared with the control group, the survival levels of the last two groups were of significant statistical difference (P<0.01). The anticancer effects also showed dosage-effect relationship, the value of IC50 24 h after treatment was 34.7 μmol/L. In addition, this reagent simultaneously activated caspase-3 protein, which was partly blocked by p38MAPK specific inhibitor, SB203580. CONCLUSION: Manumycin exerted anticancer effect on Panc-1 cell line via inducing cell apoptosis, which was partly regulated by p38MAPK.     

西北干旱区水资源利用与生态环境重建研究

西北干旱地区是我国西部大开发战略的重点建设区域之一。但是长期以来，由于气候干旱以及在市场经济利益驱动下所形成的人类对水产 过度开发利用，导致了一系列阻碍区域经济发展的严重生态环境问题。水资源的合理利用是干旱区振兴流域经济的主要保证，也是促使生态经济系统向良性方向发展的关键因素。本文从分析西北干旱区内陆河流域水资源系统特征、开发利用现状以及主要的水环境问题出发，得出干旱区生态恢复与重建必须以水资源的合理利用为核心的结论，同时提出了干旱区水资源利用优化途径与生态重建的基本对策。     

若干家蚕品种的复壮及比较试验

害虫对新烟碱类杀虫剂的抗药性及其治理策略

烟碱和新烟碱类杀虫剂都是作为后突触烟碱乙酰胆碱受体(nAChRs)的激动剂作用于昆虫中枢神经系统,但这两类杀虫剂存在明显不同的选择毒性:烟碱类对哺乳动物毒性较高,而杀虫活性低;新烟碱类具有高杀虫活性,而对哺乳动物低毒。由于新烟碱类杀虫剂的作用方式独特,对以前使用的如拟除虫菊酯类、氯化烃类、有机磷类和氨基甲酸酯类等杀虫剂很少或无交互抗性,该类杀虫剂为防治一些世界性重大害虫(包括对以前使用的杀虫剂具有长期抗性的害虫)作出了重要贡献。但现已发现不少害虫对新烟碱类杀虫剂产生了抗性。文章就害虫对新烟碱类杀虫剂的抗性概况、抗性机理和抗性治理策略进行了综述。
