中药成分辛弗林对胶体金免疫层析法检测β-受体激动剂的影响

旨在探究陈皮、青皮、木瓜、厚朴、红景天等5种中药材提取液以及饲喂了陈皮和青皮的猪尿液胶体金免疫层析法检测结果呈阳性的原因。建立测定猪尿及中药提取物中辛弗林的LC-MS/MS检测方法，测定陈皮、青皮的提取物和饲喂陈皮、青皮后猪尿中的辛弗林浓度。用小鼠肝微粒体孵育CGIA检测呈阳性的陈皮、青皮、木瓜和厚朴4味中药提取物。饲喂陈皮和青皮后的猪尿液检出辛弗林，浓度分别为1.36和1.65 μg·mL^-1；在陈皮和青皮的提取复溶液中检出辛弗林，浓度分别为132.6和312.7 μg·mL^-1。厚朴和木瓜两种中药提取物经过肝微粒体孵育后，在2~5 h逐渐由CGIA检测阳性转为阴性，陈皮和青皮孵育后，0~6 h的结果均为CGIA检测阳性；阴性中药组CGIA检测均呈阴性，而添加辛弗林的阳性对照组0~6 h CGIA检测均呈阳性。猪较大剂量使用陈皮和青皮会引起猪尿β-受体激动剂CGIA检测出现假阳性，该假阳性现象跟中药成分辛弗林有关，体外试验中辛弗林不易被小鼠肝微粒体代谢。     

利用凝胶扩散法测定刺萼龙葵种子中β-甘露聚糖酶的活性

β-甘露聚糖酶是种子萌发过程中降解胚乳细胞壁的关键酶,明确其活性的动态变化可为揭示杂草种子的休眠萌发机制提供重要依据。以外来杂草刺萼龙葵Solanum rostratum Dunal种子为材料,建立了种子中β-甘露聚糖酶活性的检测方法—凝胶扩散法。利用凝胶扩散法对不同贮存时间及贮存条件下刺萼龙葵种子中β-甘露聚糖酶的活性进行了检测,发现贮存3年以上的种子中该酶的活性为0.03 nmol/(min·mg),显著低于贮存3年以下的种子中的酶活性0.15 nmol/(min·mg),而湿润冷藏的种子中β-甘露聚糖酶的活性为0.12 nmol/(min·mg),显著高于干燥冷藏的种子的酶活性0.02 nmol/(min·mg)。实际应用结果表明,凝胶扩散法综合了传统方法的优势,检测特异性强、灵敏度高、重复性好,可同时检测大量种子样品,具有良好的实用性。     

华北地区十字花科芸薹属蔬菜上立枯丝核菌的病原生物学研究

 由丝核菌引起的十字花科蔬菜叶腐和茎基腐病在中国华北地区普遍发生,其中以河北、内蒙以及北京较为严重。2011~2018年,从华北地区不同省份具有典型叶腐和茎基腐症状的芸苔属蔬菜上分离获得95个丝核菌(Rhizoctonia spp.)分离物,大多数分离自发病植株的叶部,少数分离自茎基部。通过细胞核染色,87株菌属于多核丝核菌,另外8株属于双核丝核菌;经菌丝融合鉴定、rDNA-ITS区及TEF-1α(translation elongation factor 1-alpha, TEF-1α)序列分析,大多数多核丝核菌属于立枯丝核菌(Rhizoctonia solani)AG-2-1(74％),其他少数分别属于AG-1-IB(16％)、AG-4-HG II(2％)和双核丝核菌AG-A(8％)。温室条件下进行寄主范围致病力测定,各分离物对原寄主都表现出致病力,呈现典型叶腐或茎基腐症状;对其他作物的致病力差异较大。不同融合群(Anastomosis group,AG)的菌株对寄主致病力大小存在差异,AG-2-1致病力最强,只有AG-A对叶部没有致病力。AG-2-1对寄主叶部的致病力和对茎基部的致病力呈显著正相关,AG-1-IB对寄主叶部的致病力和对茎基部的致病力无显著相关性。

油松谷胱苷肽转移酶Tau1单体结构稳定性研究

[目的]探究油松PtGSTU1结构与功能的关系,探讨油松PtGSTU1蛋白的单体稳定性。[方法]利用同源建模模拟PtGSTU1的三维结构,推测其N末端18位精氨酸(Arg18)和C末端103位天冬氨酸(Asp103)能够形成氢键来稳定蛋白单体结构。利用定点突变,分别将Arg18和Asp103突变为具有不同极性和构象的氨基酸残基,检测其蛋白的催化活性及结构稳定性。[结果]6个Arg18突变体均无法获得高纯度的具有正确折叠的可溶蛋白,而Asp103突变体可以表达为可溶蛋白,Asp103突变体对不同底物的催化活性和亲和力明显低于野生型,对经典底物CDNB和GSH反应的催化速率(Vmax)降低了至少9倍,对底物的催化效率(kcat/Km)也明显降低。[结论]Arg18和Asp103之间形成的氢键对稳定PtGSTU1单体结构具有重要作用,由于植物GST蛋白N端的保守性和C端结构域的多变性,Arg18的突变对结构和活性的影响大于Asp103,同时预示着C端结构域中可能存在其他氨基酸位点能够与18位精氨酸形成氢键,从而稳定蛋白单体折叠结构。     

Recent progress in analytical method development to ensure the safety of gluten-free foods for celiac disease patients

As laid down by the Codex Alimentarius, products bearing a gluten-free label must not contain gluten levels above 20 mg/kg to be safe for consumption by celiac disease patients. Analytical methods to detect gluten from wheat, rye and barley need to be sufficiently sensitive, specific, suitable for routine analyses and validated by collaborative studies. With continuous progress in the field of gluten analysis, the aim of this paper is to provide an up-to-date overview of legislation regarding gluten-free products worldwide, as well as immunochemical, proteomics-based, genomics-based and other methods designed to analyse gluten traces. While ELISA test kits and PCR are still most widely used in quality control, liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is gaining more and more importance by providing unprecedented insights into gluten. Several other methods such as immunosensors, other sensors and microarrays are being developed. The pro's and con's of the different methods are discussed as well as the remaining challenges, including the need for improved extraction procedures, comprehensive reference materials and independent reference methods.     

水稻着丝粒特异组蛋白CENH3抗体的制备与应用

【目的】着丝粒是真核生物染色体的基本功能元件之一,其功能是在细胞有丝分裂和减数分裂时期精确地调控染色体配对和分离并维持染色体的稳定。着丝粒结构是由DNA和蛋白质形成的一种复合体。着丝粒特异组蛋白(centromere-specific histone H3,CENH3)是功能着丝粒是否具有活性的最基本特征。所以制备CENH3的相关抗体是进行着丝粒结构与功能研究的前提条件之一。【方法】通过设计短肽进行兔免疫实验,制备了水稻着丝粒特异组蛋白CENH3兔源抗体,利用ELISA和蛋白免疫荧光(immunofluorescence,IF)等检测方法对抗体有效性进行了鉴定。【结果】ELISA检测显示制备的CENH3抗体有效稀释度为1:40万,并且蛋白免疫荧光信号在水稻体细胞每条染色体的着丝粒区域均能检测到。同时,该抗体也可以应用于玉米等其他物种。通过染色质免疫沉淀(ChIP)技术获得与CENH3相结合的DNA分子,并进行PCR扩增和FISH定位分析,结果显示相应的Ch IP-DNA位于水稻功能着丝粒区域。【结论】本研究制备的水稻CENH3兔源抗体能满足着丝粒研究中相关实验的要求,可进一步应用于着丝粒的结构与功能研究。     

Stallion Semen Incubated with Hydrogen Peroxide Decreased DNA Fragmentation as Measured by the TUNEL Assay

Spermatozoa are highly specialized cells that are sensitive to environmental factors such as temperature and redox state. Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is a reactive oxygen species, and its presence is often associated with a decline in sperm function. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of H₂O₂ and heat stress on DNA damage, membrane integrity, and motility of stallion spermatozoa. Spermatozoa from three light-horse stallions were subjected to thermal stress, treatment with H₂O₂, or a combination of both. Treatments were organized using a 2 × 2 factorial design consisting of heat stress (control, 41°C) and potential oxidative stress (control, 50 μM H₂O₂) for 1 hour. The experiments were repeated independently on all stallions. Primary motility parameters were measured using a computer-assisted sperm analysis, whereas DNA damage was assessed using the TUNEL assay. To evaluate membrane integrity, an amine reactive dye was utilized. DNA and membrane integrity were simultaneously assessed in the same flow cytometry assay. Sperm incubated at 41°C were observed to have decreased motility (76.2% vs. 66.6%; P < .05) but not progressive motility (39.2% vs. 25.6%), membrane damaged (30.8% vs. 37.4%), or DNA damage (19.7% vs. 17.3%). Interestingly, when compared to control, treatments with H₂O₂ had decreased DNA damage (19.7% vs. 7.1%; P < .05), but did not affect any other parameter. Although our experiment demonstrated a favorable effect of 50 μM H₂O₂ on DNA damage, further studies need to be conducted to confirm these findings and to clarify any possible signaling mechanisms.
