Role of leukotriene D4 in promoting proliferation of cultured human airway smooth muscle cells

AIM: To investigate whether leukotriene D₄(LTD₄) would stimulates proliferation of cultured human airway smooth muscle (ASMC). METHOD: Human ASMC were isolated and subcultured, varying concentration of LTD₄ were added to the media. Cell counts were obtained, -thymidine([³H]-TdR) incorporation and inositol 1, 4, 5-trisphosphate (IP₃) accumulation were measured. RESULTS: LTD₄(0.1nmol·L^-1~10 nmol·L^-1) increased cell number and also increased incorporation of[³H]-TdR and accumulation of IP₃ in a concentration dependent manner(P＜0.01). The latter response was blocked by phospholipase C inhibition with neomycin (1 μmoL·L^-1(P＜0.01). However, neomycin had no effect on the promitogenic action of LTD₄. CONCLUSION: LTD₄ stimulates proliferation of cultured human ASMC and may play a role in airway remodeling of asthma.

Analysis of leaf wetness in the rice crop caused by dew formation—a simulation study1

Daily dew amount and dew duration were simulated using a multi-layer energy balance model. Two simplifications were made in the model and validated. First, the simulation results showed that daily weather data instead of hourly weather data could be used to simulate dew formation in crops, which was validated by measurements for short grass vegetation. Second, estimation of the total daily dew period was shown to be possible on the basis of nightly dew formation only. This simplification was possible on the basis of the existence of a linear relationship between the dew period after sunrise on the one hand and the dew amount at sunrise on the other. The multi-layer crop microweather model becomes much smaller and simpler (and is then called the SIMPLE model) if only night dew formation is simulated. Our results will make it possible to incorporate the SIMPLE model into a fungal disease epidemic model and a basic crop growth model.     

盐度与滤料量对生物膜降氨氮作用的影响

淡水中培养的生物膜,去氨氮能力随盐度上升及升盐速率的增加而逐渐下降,当盐度由0.6升至13.3、23.9和31.3并稳定48 h后,氨氮去除率分别为100%、93.0%和86.9%;当按不同的速度降盐至淡水环境时,生物膜去氨氮的能力逐步得以恢复,特别是降到淡水时,去氨氮率均达90%以上,基本达到淡水中生物膜去氨氮的能力。经24~36 h的吸附作用,沸石对氨氮的吸附能力强于瓷质生化环,生化环48 h去氨氮的能力(95.1%)接近沸石(100%)。以沸石为滤料的滤器去氨氮能力与速率随沸石用量增加而增强。24 h内天然沸石吸附作用去氨氮能力强于生物沸石,生物沸石48 h对氨氮的去除率(99.2%)略超过天然沸石(95.2%)。

马头滩林业局华北落叶松生长与结实能力综合分析

从华北落叶松生长量调查结果来看,华北落叶松在该地区是一个很好的适生树种,作为速生用材林具有很好的发展前途。无论是其年均生长量,还是连年生长量,都显示出不逊于原生地,甚至表现更优良的特点。但由于林分密度大,光照不足,通风透光性差,影响树冠的扩展,结实差。今后应在营林管理方面加大工作力度。
