Endogenous hydrogen sulfide regulates oxidant/antioxidant balance in rat with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

AIM: To investigate the role of hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) in the protection against oxidative stress in rats with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).METHODS: The rat model of COPD was established by cigarette smoking (CS) combined with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) instillation. Thirty-two healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group, CS+LPS group, CS+LPS+NaHS (H₂S donor) group and CS+LPS+PPG (DL-propargylglycine, an inhibitor of cystathionine-γ-lyase) group. After 30 days, the lung functions of the rats were measured, the histological changes of lungs were observed under light microscope and the pathological scores were calculated. The H₂S level in plasma and the protein expression of cystathionine-γ-lyase (CSE) in the lung tissues were measured. The content of malondialdehyde (MDA), the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were detected to reflect oxidative stress.RESULTS: Compared with control group, the peak expiratory flow (PEF) decreased by 24% and intra-pressure (IP) increased by 66% in CS+LPS group. The pathological scores of the lung tissues also increased. Compared with CS+LPS group, no change in the lung function was observed after given NaHS or PPG, but the pathological scores decreased in CS+ LPS+ NaHS group. Compared with control group, the content of H₂S in plasma was increased by 26% on day 16. Compared with CS+LPS group, the content of H₂S in plasma of CS+LPS+PPG group was decreased by 22% after 30 days. Compared with control group, the protein expression of CSE increased, and no statistical difference among CS+LPS group, CS+ LPS+ NaHS group and CS+LPS+PPG group was observed. Compared with control group, MDA content in the lung tissues was increased by 24% in CS+LPS group, the activity of SOD was increased by 47% and the activity of CAT was increased by 52%. Compared with CS+LPS group, the MDA content in CS+LPS+NaHS group was decreased by 21%, and no statistical difference in the activity of SOD and CAT was observed. The activity of SOD decreased by 33% after given PPG.CONCLUSION: H₂S plays a role as anti-oxidant in the rats with COPD. The CSE/ H₂S pathway may be involved in the development of COPD.

空肠弯曲菌基因分型的研究进展

空肠弯曲菌(Campylobacter jejuni,CJ)系螺旋科弯曲菌属胎儿亚种,为一类微需氧嗜热革兰阴性人畜共患病病原体,对人的感染率不亚于沙门菌和志贺菌。现已发现该菌除了引起人类发烧、急性肠炎、反应性关节炎(RA)和格林-巴利综合征(GBS)等疾病外,还可引起牛和绵羊流产,火鸡肝炎和蓝冠病,童子鸡和雏鸡坏死性肝炎,雏鸡、犊牛、仔猪腹泻等多种疾病。CJ广泛分布于温带、亚热带和热带的国家或地区,常通过感染的畜禽污染肉类、牛奶、鸡蛋等食物,多途径传播。常规的流行病学方法一般不能非常准确地确定其传染源,因此分型研究就成为追溯CJ传染源,调…     

福建省油茶林主要传粉昆虫种类及访花行为

对福建省福州、泉州、龙岩、南平、宁德等地油茶林传粉昆虫及其访花行为进行了调查,结果表明:福建省油茶林中主要传粉昆虫有24种,分属于3目11科17属,其中膜翅目的昆虫种类最多,有11种;大分舌蜂是油茶最重要的传粉昆虫,其数量多,传粉效率高;传粉昆虫日活动时间在12∶00—14∶30出现高峰,昆虫个体数量平均占全天总数的70%左右;油茶传粉昆虫的访花行为因昆虫的访花目的不同而有较大差异,温度和光照是影响传粉昆虫数量、行为和频率的主要因素。     

新柴牌中大功率农机动力的开发

在N,D,K等3个系列产品平台上整合开发了18.4～58.8kW中大功率农机动力,目的是有一个相对较宽的产品链来配套中大功率拖拉机及相应功率要求的联合收割机。其产品开发的重点:一是功率谱完整,即通过缸径冲程的组合设计,力求在同一条生产线上制造不同功率的产品;二是同系列同缸心距扩排量带来的结构可靠性开发,主要是缸套-活塞环的可靠性开发及曲轴与轴承的可靠性开发,满足农用动力特殊工况和工作环境的可靠性开发;三是满足国内非道路移动机械二阶段排放要求的性能开发,特别是PM,NOx和燃油消耗之间的折中,重点是在经济成本的条件下对燃烧系统和燃油系统的优化开发。

利用SDS-PAGE鉴定转基因小麦HMW-GS的表达类型和后代遗传

采用SDS-聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳(SDS-PAGE)在蛋白质水平上对T2～T5代小麦转基因株系高分子量谷蛋白亚基(HMW—GS)的遗传表达及其分离进行了鉴定和分析。结果发现，外源1Dx5和1Dy10基因在T2代部分株系中表达；在有的株系中出现了原亚基(8亚基)的缺失或沉默和新亚基(暂定8^*)的产生，因而检测出2 5 10 12，2 5 7 8^* 10 12，5 7 10，2 7 10 12的多种类型。对2 5 10 12型株系进行了多代跟踪分析，发现其在T2～T5代陆续发生分离，存在于不同单株、不同单穗的子粒和同一单粒后代之间。经筛选，获得了天然不存在的亚基类型为2 5 10 12，2 10 12，2 5 12等稳定表达的种质创新株系。
