Impact of serial activation of embryonic pax2 and WT1 genes on transdifferentiation of renal tubular epithelial cells

AIM: To investigate the mechanisms of transdifferentiation of renal tubular epithelial cells by the observation of serial activation of embryonic pax2 and WT1 genes in chronic renal failure model of 5/6 nephrectomized injury. METHODS: Embryo of mice, cultured renal tubule cells and chronic renal failure rat model of 5/6 nephrectomized injury were established. The expressions of paired Box gene (pax2) and Willm’s tumor gene (WT1), as well as α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), a phenotype of mesenchymal cells, were detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry techniques. RESULTS: (1) Expressions of pax2 and WT1 mRNA began at 11.5 d and 14 d of embryo and increased gradually, and expression in trace quantity at 2 weeks after birth. Immunohistochemistry analysis revealed that WT1 only expressed in the glomerular podocytes and expressions of pax2 and WT1 in adult renal tubular cells were negative. (2) Deno-expression of pax2 and WT1 in some tubular cells appeared at week 2 and peaked at week 4 in 5/6 nephrectomized rats, both showing a same trend of expression. However, pax2 showed another peak at week 10 afterwards. (3) Re-expressions of pax2 and WT1 in TEC at 0.5 and 24 h after treated with IL-1α (10 μg/L) or AngII (10-9 mol/L) were observed respectively, followed by upregulation of α-SMA expression, and mesenchymal cells characters were shown. The effects were inhibited by Ang II receptor 2 antagonist and WT1 antibody, respectively. CONCLUSION: Adult renal tubule cells acquire re-activation of embryonic pax2 and WT1 genes and phenotypes of mesenchymes when challenge with certain injuries. Deno-expression of pax2 and WT1 genes closely relates with high concentration of bioactive facors, such as AngII and IL-1, which are involved in the mechanisms of renal tubule cells transdifferentiation.     

黄瓜果实曲直性评价方法及相关性分析

以48份黄瓜品种为试材,采用刨分法测量其果实弯曲度,通过黄瓜果实形态指标和相关分析可知弯曲度与果长、果柄长、果柄长/果长、果长/果横径显著正相关,与种腔大小、种腔/果横径极显著负相关,与果横径显著负相关,与果肉厚不相关。依据果形指数和弯曲度对黄瓜进行了分级。筛选出顺直品种8份,次弯曲品种9份,弯曲品种31份。     

银杏叶对辣椒植株发酵液自毒作用的化感调控

采用1/2霍格兰（Hoagland）营养液水培法,研究辣椒植株发酵液的自毒作用及银杏叶发酵液和 再腐解液对其的调控作用。结果表明,辣椒植株发酵液使辣椒受到自毒作用,根系活力下降,相对电导 率增大。银杏叶发酵液加重了辣椒植株发酵液的自毒作用,并且与其浓度成正相关。银杏叶再腐解液缓 解了辣椒的自毒作用,缓解效果与再腐解液的浓度有关。     

西瓜主要农艺性状与裂果性状的相关及通径分析

对西瓜的14个农艺性状进行相关与通径分析。相关分析结果表明,裂果率与果皮厚度、外果皮木质化程度呈显著或极显著相关。经过逐步回归,10个性状与裂果有直接和间接效应,决定系数为1.000,剩余通径系数为0.001 8。外果皮木质化程度对裂果的直接作用最大,直接通径系数达到0.796,可将其作为筛选抗裂品种的重要参考性状。     

食用菊花扦插繁殖影响因素的初步研究

从基质选择、插穗长度、生根粉处理及食用菊花品种几个方面,对影响食用菊花扦插繁殖成活率的有关因素进行了研究。结果表明,珍珠岩是食用菊花扦插的首选基质;插穗长度为10 cm时生根情况较好;生根粉能够显著促进插穗生根;食用菊花插穗生根能力不同品种间差异较大。     

高产虫草菌素蛹虫草菌株的紫外线诱变选育

蛹虫草是重要的药食用真菌。通过对蛹虫草原生质体进行紫外诱变处理,筛选到1株优良的菌株CMM-81。经固体发酵,虫草菌素和腺苷含量分别为0．437％和0．036％,是出发菌株的2倍。菌株CMM-81经连续15代传代培养,虫草菌素和腺苷的含量保持稳定。
