基于MaxEnt模型的可可潜在适宜分布研究

根据野外采样和文献查阅,系统整理了可可的地理分布记录,并利用MaxEnt生态位模型和ArcGIS软件对可可的潜在适宜分布范围进行预测。结果表明:北美洲南部、中南美洲北部、非洲西部、亚洲东南部以及太平洋美拉尼西亚群岛地区均是可可的潜在适宜分布区域。其中,中国海南、台湾南部、云南西双版纳、广东雷州半岛也属于可可的适生范围。经ROC(Receiver operating characteristic)曲线分析法验证,MaxEnt模型的AUC(Area under curve)值为0.977,表明预测结果具有较高的可信度。各环境变量重要性的Jacknife检验表明,极端最低温度、年降雨量、年温度变化范围、最暖季降雨量对可可的潜在分布影响最大。

MHGCR是胆固醇生物合成过程中的限速酶,在内源胆固醇生物合成过程中起着重要的作用。研究以牛HMGCR基因为候选基因,采用PCR-SSCP和测序技术在利杂牛、利西杂牛、秦川牛、西杂牛和夏西杂牛五个群体共123个个体中检测遗传变异情况。结果表明,检测到AA和AB共2种基因型,没有发现BB基因型,测序分析发现一处SNP多态位点(GenBank:BC153262.1 11137TC)。不同基因型与屠宰性状的相关性分析显示,在利西杂群体中AA基因型个体与AB基因型个体相比,AA基因型个体的屠宰率和牛柳指标达到了极显著水平(P0.01),而AA基因型的上脑重显著高于AB基因型(P0.05),其余各项指标基因型间差异不显著(P0.05)。因此,HMGCR基因单核苷酸多态性对利西杂牛脂肪沉积有一定的影响,可作为影响屠宰性状的候选基因,指导肉牛的育种工作。     

Study on Expression and Preliminary Immunocompetence of CIC Protein Containing Molecular Adjuvants

To express CTB-IsdBid-Clfais(CIC) protein and evaluate its immunogenicity, CTB (as a molecular adjuvant) could be tandem linked with IsdBid-Clfais gene by the overlapping PCR method, then CTB-IsdBid-Clfais(CIC) was inserted into pET-32a(+) vector to construct recombinant plasmids pET-32a(+)-CTB-IsdBid-Clfais. The recombinant plasmids pET-32a(+)-CTB-IsdBid-Clfais were transformed into Escherichia coli (E.coli) BL21 to express the CTB-IsdBid-Clfa(CIC) protein, the CIC expression protein and its immune activity were detected by Western blotting and ELISA,respectively. The results showed that the length of CIC gene were 2 072 bp, and CIC was correctly inserted into the pET-32a(+) plasmids, the pET-32a(+)-CTB-IsdBid-Clfais recombinant plasmids were successfully constructed. Western blotting result confirmed that the molecular weight of CIC proteins was 95.9 ku, which were correctly expressed by E.coli BL21 with pET-32a (+)-CTB-IsdBid-Clfais plasmids. ELISA results showed that there was no significant difference among the CIC, IsdBid and Clfais protein groups (P>0.05), and there was extremely significant difference between CIC and BSA protein groups (P<0.01). In conclusion, the pET-32a(+)-CTB-IsdBid-Clfais recombinant plasmids were successfully constructed, CIC proteins were correctly expressed, and were able to react with serum from mice immunized with IsdBid and Clfais,respectively,therefore, CIC proteins had strong immune activity.

Effects of Smo gene silencing on cell activity and apoptosis of human cervical carcinoma HeLa cells

AIM: To investigate the effect of Hedgehog (Hh) signaling pathway on the viability and apoptosis of cervical carcinoma cells by shRNA technique to knock down Smoothened (Smo) gene. METHODS: Smo shRNA was used to transfect the cervical carcinoma HeLa cells. The expression of Smo and Gli1 at mRNA and protein levels in the HeLa cells was determined by RT-PCR and Western blot, respectively. The effect of Smo gene silencing on the growth of the cells was measured by MTT assay. The apoptosis and cell cycle were determined by flow cytometry. RESULTS: Compared with control group, the mRNA and protein expression of Smo and Gli1 were evenly reduced obviously after transfected with Smo shRNA for 72 h (P<0.05). The viability of HeLa cells transfected with Smo shRNA was significantly inhibited. The percentages of the cells in G₀/G₁ phase and early apoptosis rate were obviously higher in Smo shRNA transfection group than those in control group. CONCLUSION: Smo gene silencing effectively inhibits the cell growth and induces the apoptosis of human cervical carcinoma cells.     

白藜芦醇通过激活去乙酰化酶1/腺苷一磷酸激活的蛋白激酶信号通路影响牛脂肪细胞凋亡

本试验旨在研究植物提取物白藜芦醇(RES)对牛皮下脂肪细胞凋亡率以及去乙酰化酶1(SIRT1)/腺苷一磷酸激活的蛋白激酶(AMPK)信号通路关键因子的mRNA和蛋白质表达量的影响。选取18月龄鲁西黄牛的皮下前体脂肪细胞,在细胞分化的第0天,更换为RES浓度分别为0(对照)、100、200和400μmol/L的培养液处理48 h,每组设3个重复。应用Hoechst33342染色检测细胞凋亡的形态学变化,流式细胞分析仪检测细胞凋亡率,荧光定量PCR(q PCR)和免疫印迹试验(Western-blot)分别检测SIRT1/AMPK信号通路上的关键因子SIRT1、A MPKα、叉头转录因子1(Fox O1)、B细胞淋巴瘤/白血病-2(Bcl-2)、半胱氨酸天冬氨酸蛋白酶-3(caspase-3)、促凋亡蛋白Bcl-2相关X蛋白(Bax)的mRNA和蛋白质表达量,并利用油红O染色鉴定脂肪细胞。结果表明,与对照组相比:不同浓度RES处理后的牛皮下脂肪细胞凋亡率均极显著增高(P0.01);不同浓度RES处理后的SIRT1、AMPKα、caspase-3、Bax的mRNA表达量均显著或极显著提高(P0.05或P0.01),Bcl-2的mRNA表达量极显著降低(P0.01);不同浓度RES处理后的SIRT1、AMPKα、caspase-3的蛋白质表达量均显著或极显著提高(P0.05或P0.01);200和400μmol/L RES处理后,Fox O1的mRNA和蛋白质表达量显著或极显著提高(P0.05或P0.01),Bax的蛋白质表达量极显著提高(P0.01),Bcl-2的蛋白质表达量极显著降低(P0.01)。100μmol/L RES处理后时,Fox O1的mRNA和蛋白质表达量以及Bcl-2、Bax的蛋白质表达量均与对照组差异不显著(P0.05)。由此可见,RES通过激活SIRT1/AM PK信号通路,同时激活通路下游的Fox O1,促进了牛皮下脂肪细胞的凋亡,为通过营养调控技术降低牛皮下脂肪沉积提供了一定的理论基础。

细菌鞭毛蛋白作为佐剂的研究进展

细菌鞭毛蛋白作为Toll样受体5(TLR5)或NOD样受体C4(NLRC4)的配体,其结构决定了其既有抗原性又具有佐剂效应。将细菌鞭毛蛋白与外源抗原混合或融合表达,已获得多种有效的候选疫苗。细菌鞭毛蛋白佐剂效应主要是通过TLR5和NLRC4信号途径协同实现的。TLR5位于细胞表面,可触发炎性因子、趋化因子和Ⅰ型干扰素的分泌,启动天然免疫应答。NLRC4是细胞质中的模式识别受体,可识别细胞质中的多种配体并诱导相应免疫应答。另外,细菌鞭毛蛋白能募集T淋巴细胞和B淋巴细胞至次级淋巴器官,促进DCs和T淋巴细胞的活化。细菌鞭毛蛋白的可塑性将会使得以细菌鞭毛蛋白为基础的疫苗成为当前和未来研究的热点。     

可食性酪蛋白膜在食品保鲜中的应用

为研究可食性酪蛋白膜对食品贮藏过程中油脂氧化和抗氧化能力的影响,以草莓、马铃薯、鸡胸肉为材料,研究不同可食性酪蛋白膜处理对其蛋白质含量、可溶性糖含量、抗坏血酸含量、过氧化值、TBA值和正己醛浓度的影响。结果表明,草莓涂膜组的蛋白质、可溶性糖、抗坏血酸含量最高,脂溶性涂膜组次之,水溶性涂膜组稍高于对照组;马铃薯涂膜组比对照组的氧化程度低;鸡胸肉涂膜与未涂膜样品感官明显不同,抗氧化作用明显。由此可知,酪蛋白涂膜液优于涂膜对食品的保鲜效果,脂溶性涂膜效果优于水溶性涂膜,涂膜食品保鲜技术具有较佳的抗氧化能力和抑菌效果,在一定程度上可延长货架期。
