中药"壮阳促孕散"对小白鼠传统致畸试验的研究

用昆明种小白鼠对中药“壮阳促孕散”进行传统致畸试验研究。在试验中，对所有孕鼠的着床数、活胎数、死胎数、吸收胎数、胎鼠体重、身长、尾长、颜色、形状、大小、数量以及胎鼠的内脏和骨骼进行了检查记录。结果表明：致畸反应呈阴性，这说明中药“壮阳促孕散”无致畸作用。     

多价伊氏锥虫灭活疫苗制备及免疫保护试验

用湖北株、广西株和江苏株伊氏锥虫经体外培养增殖，再等量混合，制备多价伊氏锥虫灭活苗。疫苗免疫接种小鼠后，再分别用强毒湖北株、广西株和江苏株伊氏锥虫攻击，结果3组小鼠均获12／12保护。免疫保护鼠于免疫后105d时，再作第二次攻虫，结果湖北、广西和江苏组分别获得1／5，3／5，4／5保护，对照组小鼠均100％发病死亡。结果表明多价伊氏锥虫灭活苗对多种虫株均产生了良好免疫保护作用，免疫期达3个月，从而为大面积推广伊氏锥虫病苗提供了有效途径。     

镉对小鼠卵巢颗粒细胞凋亡的影响研究

为探讨镉对雌性生殖机能的影响,幼鼠皮下注射孕马血清促性腺激素(PMSG),48 h后腹腔注射不同剂量的氯化镉,用琼脂糖凝胶电泳及TUNEL法对卵巢颗粒细胞进行凋亡检测;免疫组织化学法检测颗粒细胞的bax表达。结果显示注射氯化镉后48 h的高、中、低剂量组卵巢颗粒细胞(GC)凋亡率分别为(13.887 1±1.329 9)%、(10.757 3±1.229 3)%(、10.020 8±0.983 7)%,均显著高于对照组(0.637 8±0.387 2)%(P<0.01);96 h对照组GC凋亡率显著升高,高剂量组与其它组间差异明显,中、低剂量组与对照组差异不明显。凝胶电泳仅96 h高剂量组呈现梯状带。48 h、96 h各剂量组bax表达明显高于对照组(P<0.01)。可见镉对卵巢颗粒细胞的凋亡有促进作用,并有一定的剂量相关性;TUNEL法检测细胞凋亡优于电泳法,当细胞凋亡率较低时(<20%),电泳检测不到DNA梯状带;卵巢颗粒细胞凋亡和bax的表达有一定的相关性,随凋亡率的升高bax表达呈上升趋势。     

被毛突变无毛小鼠皮肤及毛结构观察

对国内首次发现并培育成群的ＢＡＬＢ／ｃ突变小鼠的３种表型（无毛、全毛、中间态）的皮肤组织及毛结构进行了观察。结果表明，无毛小鼠仅具有非常短（１～２ｍｍ）、细且弯曲的绒毛，其毛于中心为空泡状，缺乏髓质。无毛小鼠表皮、真皮、皮下组织结构基本与全毛、中间态小鼠相同，但其毛生长周期不健全；毛球位置浅表，数目少，排列不规则；皮脂腺异常增生。推测其被毛结构异常是由毛自身结构异常所致。该小鼠外观似裸鼠，能在普通条件下生长繁殖，可望成为某些皮肤病等研究的动物模型。     

甘兰夜蛾核型多角体82—17病毒株对裸鼠感染性的研究

甘兰夜蛾核型多角体NPV82—17病毒株,经腹腔、静脉、口服感染裸鼠.被感染裸鼠9—37天的脏器经电镜观察,其肝、脾的枯否细胞和网状细胞的胞浆内都存有1至数个多角体.另将其脏器悬液回接靶昆虫棉铃虫,腹腔和静脉感染率为83—100%,口服感染率为7—77%.     

Introduced house mice Mus musculus: a significant predator of threatened and endemic birds on Gough Island, South Atlantic Ocean?

House mice Mus musculus have successfully colonized many temperate and sub-Antarctic islands that are the location for breeding colonies of millions of seabirds. Unlike other introduced mammals, the impact of house mice on seabirds and endemic birds is believed to have been negligible. The breeding ecology of seabirds breeding on Gough Island, central South Atlantic Ocean, was studied for the first time during September 2000 to September 2001. Breeding success of the endangered Tristan albatross Diomedea (exulans) dabbenena and endangered Atlantic Petrel Pterodroma incerta were 27.3 and 19.9% respectively. Mortality of large Tristan albatross and Atlantic petrel chicks was observed, and the pattern of wounds and observations of feeding indicate that introduced mice were responsible for this predation. Breeding numbers of the endemic Gough bunting Rowettia goughensis are mostly found in upland areas of Gough Island where mice are scarce and are restricted to inaccessible cliffs in the lowlands where mice are abundant. This pattern, together with the high predation rates of artificial-eggs in lowland habitats in comparison to the uplands, strongly suggests that mice constrain the distribution of Gough buntings. The results of this study provide the first evidence for the role of house mice as a significant predator of endangered and endemic birds. Further research is required to determine if the observed levels of mice predation are a regular occurrence.     

转人MCP和CD59双基因小鼠的制备

采用显微混合注射的方法制备转人MCP(膜辅因子蛋白)和CD59(膜反应性溶解抑制物)双基因小鼠,共注射478枚受精卵,移植于21只受体,其中14只受孕,8只受孕小鼠中途流产,从6只受孕小鼠获得18只仔鼠,经检测,其中9只仔鼠单基因阳性(50％),6只仔鼠双基因阳性(33．3％)。结果表明：通过显微混合注射的方法可以获得转人MCP和CD59双基因小鼠。
