大白菜不同品种对硝酸盐积累差异的研究

 将17个大白菜品种在高浓度氮素水平下营养液栽培, 分析各品种不同时期硝酸盐含量, 发现不同品种之间硝酸盐含量差异达到极显著, 最高和最低者相差两倍以上。硝酸还原酶的活性同硝酸盐含量相关性达到显著负相关, 但是也有硝酸盐含量低, 同时硝酸还原酶活性也低的品种, 通过分析认为可以通过育种途径培育出硝酸盐低积累量的品种。     

组织培养条件下苹果Ty1-copia类逆转座子的转录活性

研究了苹果基因组中Tyl—copia类逆转座子的转录活性、多样性及其甲基化水平。在培养基MS＋2，4-D2mg／L＋BA0．2mg／L＋NAA0．5mg／L上诱导了1个月的愈伤组织中用RT—PCR方法检测到了270bp的目的条带，而对照、继代组培苗和不含2，4-D的愈伤中均没有目的条带的扩增，说明一定浓度的2，4-D可以诱导苹果中Tyl—copia类逆转座子的表达活性。将目的条带回收、克隆和测序后进行分析：所克隆的21条序列虽都为Tyl-copia类逆转座子逆转录酶保守序列，但存在很大的异质性，21个克隆的核甘酸序列变化范围为196—290bp；翻译成氨基酸后存在缺失、插入、移框和终止密码子突变，7个克隆在氨基酸保守序列‘SLYGLKQ’处有1—2氨基酸位点的突变，说明这些序列对应的逆转录酶多数可能已失去了其原有功能。将21条序列进行聚类分析，除ART20外，其它克隆可聚为3类，并分别与GenBank上某些物种的相应序列同源性很高，表明在不同物种间可能存在逆转座子的横向传递作用。甲基化试验表明苹果基因组内Tyl-copia类逆转座子甲基化水平高。这些都表明Tyl-copia类逆转座子对苹果基因型的多样性及基因组的进化具有重要意义。     

荔枝生产相关的水分生理指标远程监测研究

利用植物远程监测系统对荔枝园中的大气温湿度、土壤湿度、光照强度、大气蒸汽压差(VPD)等环境因子和茎干直径微变化、果实生长、叶片温度等树体生理指标进行了监测,发现该系统能准确及时并无伤害地记录他们的实时和周期性变化。据获得的数据初步表明,当果实处于快速膨大期,主茎的加粗生长明显缓慢,一旦果实采收后,茎干加粗生长则有一个迅速上升的变化;当土壤湿度高于33%(v/v)时,主茎的生长受到明显的抑制;VPD白天上升,夜间下降,当夜间VPD始终高于0,就形成所谓的“夜间干燥”,VPD的这种变化对荔枝主茎和果实的生长以及叶气温差(LATD)都有较大的影响,如主茎和果实的日间收缩量随VPD的增大而增大,夜间空气干燥不但抑制了主茎生长,也使日最大LATD下降。据此认为,果实和茎干的生长之间存在竞争关系,土壤湿度过高或者夜间空气干燥对荔枝的生长不利。     

H5N1亚型禽流感病毒NS1基因的原核表达及其ELISA检测方法的建立

采用RT-PCR技术扩增了禽流感病毒（AIV）A／Goose／HLJ／p46／2003（H5N1）的NSl基因，将其克隆于融合蛋白表达载体pMAL-c2X上，转化DH5α大肠埃希氏菌感受态细胞，经BamHⅠ和HindⅢ双酶切鉴定及序列分析，表明筛选到了重组质粒pc2X-NS1。SDS-PAGE电泳结果显示，重组质粒转化TB1大肠埃希氏菌后，经0．3mmol／L的IPTG诱导，融合蛋白MBP-NS1得到大量表达，融合蛋白以可溶形式存在，分子质量约为67ku。Western-blotting检测结果表明，融合蛋白MBP-NS1能够与H5N1亚型AIV活病毒感染康复鸭血清发生特异性反应，而不能够与H5N1亚型AIV灭活疫苗免疫鸭血清发生反应。试验初步建立了以纯化的融合蛋白MBP-NS1为包被抗原的间接ELISA检测方法，为AIV灭活疫苗免疫家禽与AIV感染家禽的鉴别诊断奠定了基础。     

猪水泡病病毒结构蛋白基因的克隆及其蛋白二级结构和淋巴细胞表位的预测

以免疫信息学和反向疫苗学为理论根据，利用RT-PCR法获得了猪水泡病病毒（SVDV）HK／70株的基因组序列并测序，应用生物信息学相关软件和方法，对SVDV结构蛋白的二级结构的不同方面及其抗原特异性淋巴细胞表位进行了预测，综合评价了SVDV结构蛋白的抗原特异性细胞表位，并计算出一些潜在的抗原位点。结果表明，VP1蛋白含有的细胞优势抗原表位最多，但其他结构蛋白也含有抗原特异性淋巴细胞表位，有的甚至有可能成为优势抗原表位或对优势抗原表位有协同作用。

Effect of cyclophosphamide on proliferation and apoptosis of rat mesangial cells in vitro

AIM:To investigate the effect of cyclophosphamide(CTX) on proliferation and apoptosis of mesangial cells(GMC) of rat in vitro. METHODS:GMC proliferat ion was detected by MTT method,GMC apoptosis was examined by inverted microscopy for phase-contract and fluoroscopy and flow cytometry analysis.The levels of Fas and Bcl-2 were also detected by immunohistology. RESULTS:The proliferation of GMC were inhibited by CTX, methylprednisolone(MP), low molecular weight heparin(LMWH). Apoptosis of GMC was induced by CTX, the apoptosis rate of GMC was 8.2%, and the Fas level was increased. CONCLUSION:CTX could inhibit proliferation and induce apoptosis of GMC possibly by enhancing the Fas level.

Expression and role of CD134 and NF-κB in renal tissue of lupus nephritis

AIM:To investigate the role of CD134 (OX40) and NF-κB in the pathogenesis of lupus nephritis (LN).METHODS:Renal in situ CD134 and NF-κB expression were examined in 40 biopsy specimens from LN patients by immunohistochemistry and microwave-based immunohistochemistry, respectively. The relationship between expression of CD134 and NF-κB was analyzed.RESULTS:The expression of glomerular and tubular CD134 and NF-κB in LN were higher than that in normal control, especially in class Ⅳ LN, where there was intense staining of endothelial cell, distal tubules, and interstitial mononuclear cell. The CD134 expression of glomerular and tubular was closely related to NF-κB expression, respectively (r=0.5542, P＜0.05;r=0.6279, P＜0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The abnormal expression of costimulatory molecule CD134 was well evidenced in LN. Strong expression of renal in situ NF-κB was likely mediated by CD134 signal pathway, which may play an important role in the pathogenesis of LN.     

Effect of fibronectin on proliferation and collagen synthesis in cardiac fibroblasts from spontaneously hypertensive rats

AIM:To investigate the effects of fibronectin (FN) on the proliferation and collagen synthesis in cultured rat cardiac fibroblasts (CFb) derived from SHR (CFb_SHR) and WKY (CFb_WKY). METHODS:CFb derived from 12-week-old spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) and WKY was cultured by outgrowth of tissue block. Cell proliferation of CFb was measured by cell number counting and[³H]-TdR incorporation using 24-well plates pre-coated with 5 μg/cm² of FN. Collagen synthesis was determined by [³H]-proline incorporation. RESULTS:As compared with control, the cell number of fibroblasts derived from SHR and WKY were significantly increased to 163.75% and 170.42% respectively after 72 h incubation with FN in the presence of 0.4% FCS from a intial cell density of 1×10⁴ cells/mL. DNA synthesis of CFb was markedly promoted by FN. FN induced an increased in [³H]-proline incorporation in both CFb_SHR and CFb_WKY. CONCLUSION:FN is able to promote cell proliferation and collagen synthesis of CFb derived both from SHR and WKY.
