鸡柔嫩艾美尔球虫病抗性主成分分析评估模型的建立

为建立鸡活体可测球虫病抗性综合评估模型,探索鸡球虫病抗性选育新方法,以京海黄鸡为试验材料,根据国内外文献选择15个球虫抗性评价指标,通过比较鸡柔嫩艾美尔球虫感染组和非感染组抗性指标的差异,进一步筛选活体可测指标,并进行主成分分析,通过各主成分和综合主成分与所有抗性指标的相关分析,筛选最优抗性综合评估模型,并进行模型有效性筛选。在所选的14个活体可测抗性指标中,有6个指标在感染和非感染组间存在显著或极显著的差异(P0.05或P0.01),他们分别是感染后第3—5天体增重、感染后第8天血浆中CAT、GSH-Px、MDA、SOD和IFN-γ的浓度;主成分分析建立了6个单主成分和累计贡献率大于80%的综合主成分的抗性评估模型,各抗性评估模型计算的综合选择指数与15个抗性指标相关分析的结果表明,第一主成分模型和7个抗性指标相关极显著(P0.01),2个相关显著(P0.05),特别是与盲肠病变记分相关极显著(P0.01),其余6个主成分评估模型只与15个抗性指标中的2~3个相关显著或极显著(P0.05或P0.01),且与盲肠病变记分相关均不显著(P0.05);经检验第一主成分模型选择指数值的分布为正偏态分布,排序后其大小与盲肠病变表现一致。因此,第一主成分模型fi1=-0.64Zxi1+0.31Zxi2+0.80Zxi3-0.05Zxi4-0.08Zxi5+0.59Zxi6可以作为鸡柔嫩艾美尔球虫抗性选择的最佳综合选择指数用于鸡的抗病育种。     

重寄生真菌盾壳霉胞外蛋白酶产生条件及酶活影响因子

重寄生真菌盾壳霉Coniothyrium minitans是核盘菌Sclerotinia sclerotiorum的重要生防菌。为了探讨盾壳霉胞外蛋白酶在寄生核盘菌过程中的作用,采用明胶平板法对盾壳霉寄生核盘菌菌核产生的蛋白酶活性进行了检测,并进一步采用福林酚法定量测定蛋白酶活性,研究盾壳霉产生胞外蛋白酶的培养条件及影响蛋白酶活性的因子。试验结果表明,在被盾壳霉寄生的核盘菌菌核中检测到蛋白酶活性,表明蛋白酶可能参与盾壳霉重寄生作用。发现核盘菌菌核浸出液培养基适合盾壳霉产生胞外蛋白酶,摇培(20℃、200r/min)5d时蛋白酶活性最高,达到0.22U/mL。盾壳霉胞外蛋白酶酶促反应的最适温度为60℃,最适pH7.0。当温度不高于40℃时,蛋白酶酶活较稳定。5mmol/L的金属离子Mg²⁺、Zn²⁺、Ca²⁺、Cu²⁺、Mn²⁺、Li⁺和K⁺等对蛋白酶酶活没有显著影响(P>0.05),而Fe²⁺(5mmol/L)显著(P<0.05)提高了蛋白酶活性。盾壳霉蛋白酶对苯甲基磺酰氟(PMSF)敏感,说明盾壳霉产生的胞外蛋白酶可能主要是丝氨酸蛋白酶。这些结果为盾壳霉胞外蛋白酶的分离纯化和功能研究奠定了基础。     

Effect of exogenous hydrogen sulfide on lipophagy in mouse primary hepatocytes

AIM: To evaluate the effect of exogenous hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) from GYY4137 on lipophagy in mouse primary hepatocytes. METHODS: The C57BL/6 mouse primary hepatocytes isolated and cultured by 2-step in situ perfusion method were divided into 4 groups: the cells in control group were incubated with normal medium; the cells in model group were incubated with 1.2 mmol/L oleic acid (OA) for 48 h; the cells in H₂S group or propargylglycine (PAG) group were incubated with 1.2 mmol/L OA for 48 h followed by serum-free phenol red-free RPMI-1640 medium which contained 1 mmol/L GYY4137 or 200 μmol/L PAG for 6 h. The cells were collected to conduct immunofluorescence staining of LC3 and photography under fluorescence microscope, phase-contrast microscope or transmission electron microscope. The protein expression of LC3-Ⅰ/Ⅱ in the hepatocytes was determined by Western blot. RESULTS: In contrast with the model group, the fluorescent particles of LC3, the protein expression of LC3, the number of autophagic lysosome and vacuoles in hepatocytes in H₂S group increased. CONCLUSION: In steatosis hepatocytes, exogenous H₂S promotes the lipophagy.

基于GIS与马尔可夫模型的渭河盆地景观动态变化研究

基于1988年与2003年两期TM影像,综合遥感与GIS技术以及景观生态学理论,深入分析了渭河盆地景观变化的数量和空间特征以及由此所引起的一系列生态环境效应,主要表现在:耕地、园地与城镇建设用地面积显著增加,林地、水体和未利用地面积呈减少趋势,城镇建设用地的增加是以侵占大量农田为代价的,而园地与耕地的增加则主要是通过开荒的方式。景观形状趋于复杂,破碎度降低,异质性下降,景观类型有向单一化或非均衡化方向发展的趋势,表明人类的开发活动增强,这样必然导致景观稳定性下降,因而降低了景观抗干扰的能力。最后采用马尔可夫模型对景观的变化趋势进行了预测。     

Radioligand binding assay of insulin receptor in rabbit kidney during ischemic and reperfusion

AIM: To observe the change of insulin receptor in rabbit kidney with acute ischemic-reperfusion injury. METHODS: 15 Japanese white rabbits were allocated randomly into control group, ischemic-reperfusion group(IR group). IR group received clamping for 1 h followed by 2 h or 48 h of reperfusion. At 2 h or 48 h after reperfusion, glucose and insulin in serum were determined. Insulin receptor in renal tissue was analyzed by radioligand binging assay(BAD). RESULTS: The level of serum glucose increased after 2 h reperfusion in 2 groups, but in IR group the value increased much more higher than those in control groups(P＜0.05). Plasma insulin of IR group was significantly higher than that in control after 2 h reperfusion(P＜0.05). Scatchard analysis of data resulted in curvilinear profiles, indicating that there are two classes of receptors with different affinity or the presence of a single class of receptors with a negative cooperative hormone-receptor interaction. Data analyzed for a two-site model showed that the values of Bmax₁(high affinity site), Bmax₂(low affinity site) and Kd₁, Kd₂ were significantly lower than that of control (P＜0.05) after 2 h perfusion. 48 h after IR there was no difference of Bmax₁, Bmax₂, and Kd₁ between 2 groups,but Kd₂ of IR group was higher than that of control (P＜0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The results indicate that the effect of intrinsic insulin decreases in the progress of the renal ischemic-reperfusion. The resulting high serum glucose may aggravate renal injury in the progress of ischemic-reperfusion.     

Suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid induces apoptosis of HepG2 cells by endoplasmic reticulum stress apoptotic pathway

AIM: To investigate the effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) on the proliferation and apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells and to explore its possible mechanism. METHODS: HepG2 cells were treated with SAHA at different concentrations for 48 h. The proliferation of HepG2 cells was detected by real-time cellular analysis. The protein levels of acetylated histones H3K9 and H3K27, glucose-regulated protein 78 (GRP78), protein kinase R-like endoplasmic reticulum kinase (PERK) and p-PERK were determined by Western blot. The cell apoptosis was analyzed by flow cytometry. RESULTS: Compared with control group, treatment with SAHA at 0.1 μmol/L and 1 μmol/L for 48 h showed no significant inhibitory effect on the proliferation of HepG2 cells, while SAHA at 6 μmol/L and 12 μmol/L significantly inhibited the proliferation of HepG2 cells (P<0.05). The results of Western blot showed that the protein levels of acH3K9, acH3K27, GRP78 and p-PERK increased significantly after treated with SAHA at diffe-rent concentrations for 48 h, while the protein level of PERK was decreased significantly (P<0.05). The results of flow cytometry analysis showed that the apoptotic rates of the HepG2 cells increased with the increase in SAHA concentration. CONCLUSION: SAHA up-regulates the acetylation of H3K9 and H3K27 in the HepG2 cells and induces apoptosis of HepG2 cells by activating the endoplasmic reticulum stress-related apoptosis pathway.
