Effect of Beclin 1 RNA interference on Vit K3 injured SMMC-7721 cells

AIM: To observe the effect of Beclin 1 silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) technique to the injury of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells by vitamin K3 (Vit K3).METHODS: The recombinant plasmid Psilencer 3.1-siRNA-Beclin 1 was transfected into SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells by eukaryotic cell transfection technique. Plasmid vector and cell culture medium were used as negative and control, respectively. The cells were collected 48 h later to extract cell RNA and total protein and to detect Beclin 1 gene expression by RT-PCR and Western blotting. 40 μmol/L Vit K3 was used to treate the Beclin 1-siRNA cells, Hoechst33342 staining was used for the determination of the percentage of cell apoptosis.RESULTS: Compared with the control group, the synthetic siRNA of Beclin 1 significantly decreased the levels of Beclin 1 mRNA and protein expressions. Beclin 1 mRNA was up-regulated in 40 μmol/L Vit K3 treated SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells, the percentage of apoptosis cells increased (P﹤0.01). In beclin 1-siRNA cells, Beclin 1 mRNA was down-regulated obviously, the percentage of apoptosis cells increased significantly compared with the 40 μmol/L Vit K3 group (P﹤0.01).CONCLUSION: The transfection of SMMC-7721 hepatoma cells by Psilencer3.1-siRNA-Beclin 1 effectively inhibits the expressions of Beclin 1 mRNA and protein, inhibits the activation of Beclin 1 dependent autophagic signaling pathway, and aggravates the apoptosis induced by Vit K3.     

Protective effect of bivalent anti-snake venom IgY administered intragastrically on mice with cobra or viper envenomation

AIM: The different effect of bivalent immunoglobulin Yolk (IgY) was evaluated against snake venom between intragastric administration and intraperitoneal injection in mice with cobra or viper envenomation. METHODS: The venom of naja and viper was injected alternately into the leghorn hen. Bivalent anti-snake venom IgY was extracted by water dilution. The concentration of bivalent IgY in plasma was observed in indirect ELISA assay after bivalent anti-snake venom IgY taken orally. The gastric emptying function test was used for determining optimization time after gastric administration of IgY. The protective effect of bivalent anti-snake venom IgY was compared between intragastric administration and intraperitoneal injection in mice with cobra or viper envenomation. RESULTS: Bivalent anti-snake venom IgY was extracted from eggs laid in 28-42 d after the first immunization. The titers of Bivalent IgY against cobra and viper venom were 1∶12 800 and 1∶6 400. At the time of 2.5-3.5 h after bivalent anti-snake venom IgY was taken orally in three concentrations (75 mg, 150 mg, 300 mg·0.5 mL-1·20 g-1 BW), the gastric evacuation rate of mice was above 68.9%, with the plasma concentration of bivalent IgY in peak. The survival time of mice envenomation with snake venom was extremely prolonged (P<0.01), after IgY was taken by intragastric administration or intraperitoneal injection. While administration with the same dose of IgY, the survival rate of mice envenomation with cobra venom was higher than that of viper venom. The effective dose of intragastric administration was decuple higher than that of intraperitoneal injection. CONCLUSION: The animal envenomation with cobra or viper venoms can be significantly protected by bivalent anti-snake venom IgY with intragastric administration or intraperitoneal injection.     

军曹鱼黏膜免疫组织发育的形态学研究

运用组织学及组织化学的染色方法,对出膜后第l-44天（days post-hatch,dph）的军曹鱼（Rachycentron canadum）黏膜免疫组织的发育过程进行研究。结果显示,白细胞在黏膜免疫组织出现的时间顺序由早到晚依次为鳃、皮肤、胃、肠,同大量抗原接触鱼体组织时白细胞出现的时间顺序相符。军曹鱼胃固有层中丰富的白细胞说明胃可能在黏膜免疫中发挥着很大的作用。黏液细胞最早出现在胃;其后是皮肤和肠道;鳃最晚。在胃肠、皮肤内的黏液细胞几天后就可分泌中性至酸性黏液物质,且分泌量随鱼体分发育而增多,但在鳃组织内,黏液的分泌早于黏液细胞的出现。在采样的时间段里,黏膜免疫组织未发现浆细胞,可能是由于B细胞还没有发育成熟并具备免疫功能。从白细胞在军曹鱼黏膜组织内发育及分布的状况,可见黏膜组织具有完成免疫应答的细胞基础。

不同地下水埋深对土壤水、盐及作物生长影响的试验研究

对20个地中测坑进行不同地下水埋深下土壤水、盐运移及作物生长的分析,研究了地下水埋深对土壤水分利用效率(WUE)、养分(NO3-N)及作物生物性状指标的影响.结果表明:埋深为1.5～2.5 m时,有利于作物生长,但从盐渍化控制角度看,地下水埋深宜控制在2.0 m左右为宜;当地下水埋深大于2.0 m时,目前的灌溉制度已经不能满足作物的正常生长需要,出现亏缺灌溉,需要增加灌水定额,本研究说明适宜地下水位的控制对于河套灌区节水改造具有重要的意义.

凡纳滨对虾精氨酸激酶的分离纯化及性质研究

经过CM-纤维素批量层析、Separdex G-100柱层析、DEAE_纤维素柱层析等步骤,从凡纳滨对虾肌肉组织分离得到精氨酸激酶,经SDS-PAGE检测达到电泳纯,分子量约为40kDa.对该酶的性质进行分析结果表明,精氨酸激酶的最适作用温度为55℃,当温度高于65℃时,酶活力显著下降;pH 8时酶活力较高,低浓度的精氨酸对酶活力有促进作用,高浓度时表现抑制作用,而底物类似物精胺和氨基胍则对酶促反应表现出完全的抑制.NaCl,KCl对酶的活力具有促进作用,低浓度(10 mmol·L-1)MgCl2对酶活力表现出激活作用,而CuCl2与MnCl2则表现出完全抑制酶活力,CaCl2与ZnCl2在低浓度时对酶活力无明显影响,但是随着浓度升高,对酶具有抑制作用.
