当涂民歌非物质文化遗产保护与传承的调查研究

当涂民歌是流传于皖江两岸的民间歌曲，历史悠久、底蕴深厚，2006被列入国家首批非物质文化遗产名录。近年来，对当涂民歌的保护与传承在政府、团体、个人等多个层面以多种方式呈现，并充分体现出各层面之间的相互关联与密切合作。特别是当涂民歌艺术馆在发展企业自身的同时，借助行政部门提供的平台、渠道，开展当涂民歌的保护与传承工作，形成了一种可持续的良性发展模式。这种行政主导、社会广泛参与的互助互利成功经验值得思考与借鉴。     

模拟氮沉降及降水作用下红砂和珍珠猪毛菜幼苗生物量的分配模式

水分和氮素是植物生物量积累的重要资源,也是调节植物在荒漠逆境条件下生物量分配的主要因素.本研究以两种荒漠优势植物红砂(Reaumuria soongarica)和珍珠猪毛菜(Salsola passerina)苗木为试验材料,研究了降水[–30％(低水)、0?(中水)、+30％?(高水)]与氮素[0?(N0,无氮)、4?g·(m2·a)?1?(N1,中氮)、8?g·(m2·a)?1?(N2,高氮)]交互作用对其不同生长方式(红砂单生、珍珠猪毛菜单生、红砂和珍珠猪毛菜混生)下的生物量分配及相关生长关系的影响.结果表明:1)红砂和珍珠猪毛菜幼苗受水分和氮素影响显著(P??茎?>?叶.混生红砂的根、茎、叶生物量分别在无氮和低水、无氮和中水、低氮和高水条件时有所增加,其分配关系为叶?≥?茎?>?根.单生和混生珍珠猪毛菜均在低氮和高水时器官生物量增加,两者生物量分配关系一致,均表现为叶?>?茎?>?根.2)混生方式下的红砂和珍珠猪毛菜叶根重比、叶重比、源汇重比均高于单生方式,而根冠比则较单生分别平均减少了52.63％和37.45％,说明两种植物在混生过程中均能将更多的生物量分配到地上部分.未来在降水格局和氮沉降变化条件下,红砂和珍珠猪毛菜的混生状态将可能比其单生状态更有利于适应全球气候的变化.     

短花针茅荒漠草原斑块尺度物种多样性及其共存格局

阐明斑块尺度上物种共存格局，对于深入认识荒漠草原破碎化草地生物多样性的维持机理具有重要意义。按斑块的土壤生境退化程度，选取短花针茅荒漠草原3类典型群落斑块为研究对象，对比分析不同斑块的物种构成、多样性及物种间的共存关系格局。结果表明：① 斑块A属单优种短花针茅（Stipa breviflora）群落；斑块B为短花针茅+草木樨状黄耆（Astragalus melilotoides）群落；斑块C为苦豆子（Sophora alopecuroides）+老瓜头（Cynanchum komarovii）+猪毛蒿（Artemisia scoparia）群落。② 群落结构中斑块A和斑块B多样性相近，均高于无短花针茅生长的斑块C。③ 基于零模型的分析结果显示，物种共存格局的复杂性和强度为：斑块A>斑块B>斑块C，且下降趋势明显，斑块A存在的16组显著物种对中有4组为显著竞争关系，而斑块C中的物种对减少到7组，且仅存在猪毛蒿与苦豆子组显著竞争物种对。结论：表明未沙化的土壤生境斑块是荒漠草原破碎化草地生物多样性维持的一个重要前提，土壤生境的退化显著降低了斑块内部群落组织的复杂性和物种间相互作用的强度，不利于群落的自我维持。     

SIRT1 promotes autophagy of pancreatic cancer cells induced by hypoxia via regulating FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway

AIM: To investigate the effect of SIRT1 on the autophagy of pancreatic cancer cells under hypoxia condition, and to analyze the underlying mechanism of regulating FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway. METHODS: Western blot and immunofluorescence methods were used to determine the expression of SIRT1 in the pancreatic cancer cells. The small interfering RNA targeting SIRT1 and SIRT1 over-expression plasmid were transfected into the pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells. Confocal microscopy was used to detect the LC3 expression. Western blot was used to analyze the protein levels of LC3, p62 and FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway-related molecules. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detected the protein interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO1. RESULTS: The expression level of SIRT1 in the nucleus of Panc-1 cells was increased under hypoxia condition. Compared with negative control under hypoxia condition, knock-down of SIRT1 expression attenuated the autophagy flux in the pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells (P<0.05). Over-expression of SIRT1 increased the protein levels of FOXO1 and RAB7. On the contrary, knock-down of SIRT1 expression inhibited the protein levels of FOXO1 and RAB7. The protein interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO1 in the pancreatic cancer cells was observed. CONCLUSION: SIRT1 in pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells under hypoxia condition is over-expressed in the nucleus. Down-regulation of SIRT1 inhibits autophagy and its mechanism may be related to FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway.     

Development of a reverse-transcription loop-mediated isothermal amplification assay to detect avian influenza viruses in clinical specimens

In recent years, the avian influenza has brought not only serious economic loss to the poultry industry in China but also a serious threat to human health because of the avian influenza virus(AIV) gene recombination and reassortment. Until now, traditional RT-PCR, fluorescence RT-PCR and virus isolation identification have been developed and utilized to detect AIV, but these methods require high-level instruments and experimental conditions, not suitable for the rapid detection in field and farms. In order to develop a rapid, sensitive and practical method to detect and identify AIV subtypes, 4 specific primers to the conserved region of AIV M gene were designed and a loop-mediated isothermal amplification(RT-LAMP) method was established. Using this method, the M gene of H1–H16 subtypes of AIV were amplified in 30 min with a water bath and all 16 H subtypes of AIV were able to be visually identified in presence of fluorescein, without cross reaction with other susceptible avian viruses. In addition, the detection limit of the common H1, H5, H7, and H9 AIV subtypes with the RT-LAMP method was 0.1 PFU(plaque-forming unit), which was 10 times more sensitive than that using the routine RT-PCR. Further comparative tests found that the positivity rate of RT-LAMP on detecting clinical samples was 4.18%(14/335) comparing with 3.58%(12/335) from real-time RT-PCR. All these results suggested that the RT-LAMP method can specifically detect and identify AIV with high sensitivity and can be considered as a fast, convenient and practical method for the clinic test and epidemiological investigation of AIV.
