山毛豆草粉颗粒料对肉兔的饲用价值评定

为探讨山毛豆(Tephrosia candida)草粉对肉兔的饲用价值,将60只新西兰青年肉兔分为5组,分别添加0％(对照),10％,20％,30％和40％的山毛豆草粉制成全价颗粒饲料,饲喂90 d后测定各组饲料的营养成分及肉兔采食量、日增重、料重比和屠宰性能.结果表明:山毛豆营养生长期粗蛋白含量为17.77％,肉兔对山毛豆中粗蛋白的消化率为78.09％,山毛豆的可消化总养分为56.18％.与对照组相比,添加20％草粉日增重达到20.80 g·d-1(P＜0.01);料重比为4.45∶ 1(P＜0.05)；屠宰率为57.78％(P＜0.01)；单位kg增重平均最低饲料成本差异显著(P＜0.05).因此,添加20％山毛豆草粉制成全价颗粒饲料可显著提高肉兔的生产性能和养殖效益.

水稻二化螟性诱测报技术研究

多年系统调查和应用结果表明,二化螟性诱剂具有较强的诱蛾能力,其诱蛾量与测报灯的诱蛾效果相当或略高,且诱蛾量受环境影响较小。诱测结果能够反映出二化螟在1年中发生的实际情况,可在实际测报中应用。性诱、灯诱、田间虫量剥查结合,将明显提高水稻二化螟监测预报水平。     

甘蔗野生资源对蔗茅柄锈菌的抗性鉴定

采用人工接种喷雾法对国家甘蔗种质资源圃保存的31份甘蔗野生资源材料进行了抗蔗茅柄锈菌(Puccinia erianthi Padw et Khan)的抗性鉴定。结果表明,31份材料中,高抗材料19份(61.3%),抗性材料3份(9.68%),中抗材料6份(19.36%),中感材料3份(9.68%)。其中斑茅种对蔗茅柄锈菌的抗病性较强,细茎野生种抗病性较差,较易感锈病。     

Apoptosis of implanted tumor of human primary gastric cancer cells in nude mice induced by resveratrol

AIM: To investigate the molecular mechanism of the apoptosis of implanted tumor of human primary gastric cancer cells in nude mice induced by resveratrol. METHODS: Human primary gastric cancer cells were planted into nude mice to establish the cancer model. Resveratrol at different doses were injected near the carcinoma on the nude mice. After treatment, transmission electron microscope and TUNEL staining method were used to detect the apoptosis of implanted tumor cells. Immunohistochemical staining and RT-PCR were used to detect the expression of apoptosis-related genes bcl-2 and bax in implanted tumor. RESULTS: Resveratrol significantly inhibited carcinoma growth when it was injected near the carcinoma. The apoptotic cells in implanted tumor induced by resveratrol were detected by transmission electron microscope and TUNEL staining, immunohistochemical staining and RT-PCR showed resveratrol inhibited bcl-2 expression and increased bax expression in human primary gastric cancer cells. CONCLUSION: Resveratrol inhibits implanted tumor of human primary gastric cancer cells in nude mice through inducing apoptosis. This apoptosis may be mediated by down-regulation of bcl-2 expression and up-regulation of bax expression.     

Effect of benefiting-bone Capsule on IL-6 mRNA and protein expression in rat osteoblasts in vitro

AIM: The effects of benefiting-bone Capsule (BBC) containing serum on IL-6 mRNA and protein expression in osteoblasts were studied.METHODS: (1) The neonate Sprague-dawley rat osteoblasts were cultured and divided into three groups: group Ⅰ (containing deactivating serum with BBC), group Ⅱ (containing deactivating serum without BBC) and group Ⅲ (DMEM medium group)； (2) RT-PCR was used to measure the relative IL-6 mRNA levels； (3) The radioimmunoassay method was used to examine IL-6 protein in the supernatant of the cultured osteoblasts. RESULTS: (1) The relative IL-6 mRNA levels was lower in group I than the control (P<0.05); (2) The IL-6 protein expression in osteoblasts was also lower in group I than the control (P<0.05).CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest BBC drug-containing serum can down-regulate the expression of IL-6 mRNA and protein in osteoblasts, which may be one of the mechanisms of BBC preventing and treating osteoporosis.     

Effects of Ginkgolide B on glutamate-induced apoptosis and calcium overload in cultured rat cortical neurons

AIM: To observe the effects of ginkgolide B on the neuron apoptosis induced by glutamate and explore whether this effects are related to the changes of calcium in neurons. METHODS: Primary neuron culture was prepared according to a previously reported procedure with slight modification. Neuron damage was induced by 0.8 mmol/L glutamate. The cell survival rate was examined by 3-(4, 5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2, 5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assays. The neuron morphological changes, Hoechst 33258 unclear-staining analysis and agarose gel electrophoresis of DNA were measured as the indexes of cell apoptosis. Intracellular free Ca2+ concentration in neurons was measured by using the fluorescent Ca2+ indicator Fura-2/AM. RESULTS: The cells, exposed to glutamate (0.8 mmol/L), showed characteristic change of apoptosis and calcium overload, which were relieved by the treatment of ginkgolide B (10-250 μmol/L), with survival increasing and cell morphology restoring and DNA fragment decreasing. CONCLUSIONS: Ginkgolide B prevents the neurons from glutamate neurotoxicity by inhibiting glutamate-induced apoptosis. The potential mechanism of its action may be related to the competitive PAF receptor binding of ginkgolide B and decreasing the intracellular calcium concentration in neurons.     

Ultrastructure and function of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells

AIM: To study the cytoskeleton of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), the ultrastructure and function relationship by using atomic force microscope (AFM). METHODS: The ultrastructures and morphological feature of MSCs cultured for 1 d and 5 d were studied by AFM. RESULTS: The special structures that possess peculiar morphological characteristic of MSCs such as cytoskeleton, pseudopod, microfilament etc were identified by AFM, and these special structures are difficult to observe under electronic microscopy or other conventional optical microscopy. CONCLUSIONS: AFM is a powerful tool to study ultrastructures, morphological features, and cytoskeleton of stem cells in near physiological conditions. Its application prospect in cellular biology is extensive. The special cytoskeleton and other structures of MSCs observed above may represent the structural base of multi-differentiation potential of MSCs.
