杨梅酸性转化酶基因cDNA分离及表达分析

杨梅果实富含蔗糖,酸性转化酶是蔗糖代谢关键酶,根据植物酸性转化酶基因保守区序列设计引物,提取杨梅叶片RNA,逆转录获得cDNA,以此为模板通过PCR技术扩增到长度为516bp的基因片段,克隆入pMD18-T载体中,命名为MrIVR1(GenBank:DQ339699)。测序及同源性检索表明,该基因推导氨基酸序列与君子兰、葡萄、草莓、胡萝卜等酸性转化酶基因氨基酸序列同源性为60%～69%。运用ClustalX软件对植物转化酶基因进行了系统树分析,结果显示,MrIVR1编码的蛋白质属于细胞壁酸性转化酶。半定量RT-PCR表达分析显示,MrIVR1基因在杨梅果实发育早期表达量最高,随着果实的发育表达量下降,在成熟果实中表达水平较低。

苏太仔猪FUT1基因M307位点多态性与F18大肠杆菌抗病相关性的体外鉴定

采用PCR-RFLP方法检测了江苏苏太断奶仔猪FUT1基因M307位点等位基因多态性分布,在所检的49头仔猪中,GG基因型个体16头,AG基因型19头,AA基因型14头。在此基础上,制备上述不同基因型个体仔猪小肠上皮细胞,分别与表达F18ab菌毛的野生型大肠杆菌、表达F18ac菌毛含fed操纵子全基因的重组大肠杆菌和V型系统表面分泌表达F18abFedF亚单位的重组大肠杆菌进行体外黏附试验和黏附抑制试验。研究结果表明:FUT1基因M307位点中GG型和AG型仔猪小肠上皮细胞均能黏附上述3种大肠杆菌,而AA型个体小肠上皮细胞则不能黏附。将上述3种大肠杆菌分别与抗F18ab菌毛高免血清、F18ac菌毛高免血清及抗F18abFedF亚单位单因子血清作用后,则失去黏附仔猪肠上皮细胞能力。上述结果对苏太猪从体外试验上证明了FUT1基因M307位点多态性与断奶仔猪腹泻和水肿病存在着直接的相关性。     

部分引进猪种α1-岩藻糖转移酶基因多态性研究

本研究采用PCR RFLP技术对4个引进猪种杜洛克、约克夏、长白猪和皮特兰共计122头猪的FUT1基因进行了多态性分析。结果表明：4个猪种在该FUT1基因座位存在多态性，但抗性基因型AA仅在杜洛克和皮特兰猪中分布。卡方检验结果表明，长白猪与皮特兰间FUT1基因基因型分布差异极显著，长白猪与杜洛克猪之间差异显著，约克夏与皮特兰间差异也显著。     

香蕉A基因组品种间遗传关系的SSR检测

应用SSR技术,对32个香蕉A基因组类型品种(系)的遗传关系进行了检测。40对SSR引物在32个品种(系)中分别扩增带数在3～15个,平均每个SSR座位可检测2.99个多态性带;引物的多态信息量(PIC)在0.00～0.88,平均0.62。依据SSR数据计算的品种间遗传距离在0.00%～34.27%,平均12.45%,大多数品种间的遗传变异非常有限,但也存在着遗传差异突出的品种:FHIA25、Yangambi KM5、Pisang Jari Buaya、Rose和皇帝蕉。依据26%的遗传距离,除了FHIA25和Pisang Jari Buaya单独化成1组外,其它30个品种可以分为2组:品种间遗传差异相对较高的组I和品种间遗传差异相对较低的组Ⅱ。Williams与引进的洪都拉斯3号、M931之间,洪都拉斯1号和洪都拉斯2号之间,高脚青芽蕉和高脚顿地雷分别没有区分开来,这可能是同物异名,也可能是同一品种未能分辨的突变体。     

Activity of H+-K+-ATPase in gastric parietal cells under stress in rats and analysis of electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry

AIM: To demonstrate the changes of activity and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of H⁺-K⁺-ATPase of gastric parietal cells under stress in rats. METHODS: Twenty-four male SD rats were randomly divided into normal group, stress group and stress+omeprazole (OM) group. Water immersion-restraint stress (WRS) model in SD rats was performed. The ulcer index (UI) of gastric mucosa and H⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells were measured. The changes of ultrastructure and electron microscopic enzyme cytochemistry staining of parietal cells were observed under transmission electron microscope (TEM). RESULTS: Compared with control group, the UI of gastric mucosa and H⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells increased (P<0.01 and P<0.05) in stress group. In stress+OM group, both UI and H⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity decreased (P<0.01) compared with stress group. Parietal cells were in a resting state in control group, and became active in stress group, where plenty of intracellular canaliculi were observed under the TEM. In stress+OM group, the dilated intracellular canaliculi lined with rare microvilli were founded. Enzyme cytochemistry staining showed that there was little black punctate enzyme reactive product scatted in intracellular canaliculi and the apical plasma membrane of parietal cells in control group, and there were large amounts of black enzyme reactive product accumulated at the intracellular canaliculi in stress group. Scarcely deposition of enzyme reactive product in intracellular canaliculi was observed in stress+OM group. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that the H⁺-K⁺-ATPase activity of gastric parietal cells increases under WRS, and is in accordance with ultrastructure changes. These findings suggeste that gastric acid might be one of the most important factors that result in stress ulcer.     

Pretreatment of hypertonic saline attenuates the hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury induced by neutrophils

AIM: To explore the effect of the pretreatment of hypertonic saline (HTS) in hepatic ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury.METHODS: The rats were divided into sham group (sham group), ischemia reperfusion group (IR group) and pretreatment of hypertonic saline group (HTS group). Partial hepatic ischemia reperfusion model was used. The rats were sacrificed at the time of 1 h, 3 h, 6 h, 12 h and 24 h after reperfusion in each group, respectively. Blood samples were obtained to examine ALT. The expression of the CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1) on the neutrophils was analyzed by flow cytometry. RT-PCR and Western blotting were used to examine the expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in livers and chromatometry was performed to detect the activity of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in livers. The morphology of hepatocytes and the structure of sinusoid were observed by histological examinations. RESULTS: ① HTS pretreatment decreased the level of ALT at the time points of 3 h, 6 h and 12 h after reperfusion (P<0.05). ② Mac-1 expression in HTS group was lower at 6 h and 12 h after reperfusion compared with IR group (P<0.05). ③ MPO activity in HTS group was lower at 6 h, 12 h and 24 h compared with IR group (P<0.05). ④ RT-PCR and Western blotting analysis indicated that the pretreatment of HTS inhibited the expression of ICAM-1 in livers after reperfusion. ⑤ Moderate hepatocyte swelling and few neutrophil infiltration were observed in HTS group.CONCLUSION: Pretreatment with HTS has the effect on hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury by inhibiting the expression of Mac-1 on circulating neutrophils and the expression of ICAM-1 in the liver.
