 炭疽菌是重要的植物病原真菌,能够引起多种植物炭疽病。真菌病毒广泛存在于植物病原菌中,侵染炭疽菌属真菌的病毒资源有待挖掘。本文利用宏病毒组测序技术,对分离自我国南部6个省份不同油茶园的40株油茶炭疽菌中的病毒进行了鉴定。经过同源比对分析,发现10种基因组类型均为正义单琏RNA的新病毒。它们分属于减毒病毒科(Hypoviridae)、裸露病毒科(Narnaviridae)、线粒体病毒科(Mitoviridae)和葡萄孢欧尔密病毒科(Botourmiaviridae)。本研究是我国南方油茶炭疽病菌携带病毒的首次报道。研究结果丰富了炭疽菌属所携带的病毒基因组信息,可为深入分析炭疽菌真菌病毒的多样性和分子特性奠定基础。     

Nodosin induces apoptosis of HepG2 cells by increasing Apaf-1 expression and activating caspase-3

AIM:To investigate the effects of nodosin on apoptosis of human hepatocellular carcinoma HepG2 cells. METHODS:HepG2 cells were treated with nodosin at different concentrations (1.25 μmol/L, 2.5 μmol/L, 5 μmol/L, 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L) for 24 h. The morphological changes of the HepG2 cells were observed by Hoechst 33258 staining and electron microscopy. The apoptotic rates were analyzed by flow cytometry. The mRNA expression of apoptotic protease-activating factor-1 (Apaf-1) was detected by RT-qPCR. The protein levels of pro-caspase-3, caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-3 were determined by Western blot. RESULTS:HepG2 cells showed obvious cell shrinkage and nucleus drift when treated with nodosin as the concentration was increased. Many apoptotic bodies were observed in 5 μmol/L, 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L nodosin groups. The mRNA expression of Apaf-1 was increased in 5 μmol/L, 10 μmol/L and 20 μmol/L nodosin groups as compared with control group (P<0.05). The protein levels of pro-caspase-3, caspase-3 and cleaved caspase-3 were increased with the increasing dose of nodosin (P<0.05). CONCLUSION:Nodosin induces the apoptosis of HepG2 cells. This effect was related to increasing Apaf-1 mRNA expression and subsequently promoting the activation of caspase-3.     

Protective effects of nmhaFGF on NRK52E cell apoptosis induced by H2O2

AIM: The present study was designed to establish H2O2-induced NRK52E cell apoptotic model and to investigate the effects and the mechanism of nmhaFGF on the NRK52E cell apoptosis induced by H2O2. METHODS: In vitro experiment, a apoptotic model of normal rat kidney epithelium (NRK52E) was made by MTT method, Hoechst33342 dyeing and flow cytosorting (FCR). NRK52E cells were cultured with different concentrations of nmhaFGF and haFGF for 24 h before H2O2 was added. The apoptotic rate was detected with FCR method. RESULTS: H2O2 at concentration of 0.4 mmol/L, the optimal condition to establish the apoptotic model, was used to treat NRK52E cells for 18h. Different doses of nmhaFGF (0.01, 0.03, 0.10, 0.30, 1.00 mg/L) reduced the apoptotic rates with the dose rising. However, the decreasing tends of apoptotic rates with dose increasing for haFGF was not so obvious. CONCLUSION: nmhaFGF protects the NRK52E cells against apoptosis. The mechanism might be connected with its non-mitogenic property.

Cloning of L-PGDS Gene and Its Expression Pattern in Different Tissues and Testis at Different Development Stages in Cattle-yak

The purpose of this study was to clone the prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) gene and identify its expression pattern in various tissues and testis at different development stages in cattle-yak,in order to provide experimental basis for studying the mechanism of L-PGDS gene in testis development of cattle-yak.The total RNA of heart,liver,spleen,lung,kidney,large intestine,small intestine,gastric,brain and testis at different development stages (fetal,calve tuberty and old) of healthy cattle-yak were extracted by Trizol method.The L-PGDS gene sequence was amplified and cloned by RT-PCR,and analyzed by related biological software.The expression of L-PGDS gene mRNA in different tissues and testicular tissues at different development period of in cattle-yak were detected by Real-time quantitative PCR.The results showed that the length of L-PGDS gene was 624 bp,including the ORF of 576 bp,which encoded 191 amino acids.Homology alignment results showed that L-PGDS gene in cattle-yak had high homology with Bos taurus and Ovis aries,which were 99.28% and 94.00%,respectively.Phylogenetic tree results showed that the relation between cattle-yak and Bos taurus was the closest,followed by Ovis aries and Equus caballus.The L-PGDS protein was an unstable hydrophobic protein,the molecular weight was 21.229 ku,the molecular formula was C₉₅₃H₁₄₇₁N₂₅₁O₂₈₁S₉,the isoelectric point was 6.43,and the instability index was 47.25.The L-PGDS protein had no transmembrane region and no signal peptide.The secondary structure of L-PGDS protein contained alpha helix,random coil and extended chain,the rats of them were 25.65%,53.40% and 20.94%,respectively.L-PGDS gene was highly expressed in testis of cattle-yak,which was extremely significantly higher than that in other tissues (P<0.01).The expression of L-PGDS gene mRNA in testis of cattle-yak increased firstly and then decreased along with age,and with the highest expression in puberty stage,which was extremely significantly higher than that at other periods (P<0.01).This study provided basic data for further study on the mechanism of L-PGDS gene in the development of testis in cattle-yak.

硒对树突状细胞和巨噬细胞功能的调控作用

旨在探讨硒对树突状细胞（dendritic cells,DCs）和巨噬细胞功能的影响,试验将硒分别与髓源性树突状细胞（bone marrow derived dendritic cells,BMDCs）和腹腔巨噬细胞共同培养后,用流式细胞术检测未成熟BMDCs和巨噬细胞的吞噬活性以及BMDCs上的MHCⅡ、CD86、CD80和CD40的表达量,测定经硒处理后的成熟BMDCs对刺激同种异体淋巴细胞增殖和抗原递呈能力,并用ELISA检测BMDCs和巨噬细胞上清液中细胞因子（IL-12、IL-1β、IFN-γ、IL-6、IL-10、TNF-α、NO）水平的变化。结果显示,当硒的质量浓度在0.18~0.09 mg·L^-1时,BMDCs和巨噬细胞的吞噬活性显著增强（P<0.05）,并且BMDCs上的MHCⅡ、CD86和CD80的表达量显著升高（P<0.05）,对刺激同种异体淋巴细胞的增殖和抗原递呈能力也显著增强（P<0.05）。此外,在BMDCs的上清中,IFN-γ、IL-12和IL-10的含量显著升高（P<0.05）;在巨噬细胞的上清中,IFN-γ、TNF-α和NO的含量显著升高（P<0.05）。结果表明,一定质量浓度的硒可以增强树突状细胞和腹腔巨噬细胞的功能,值得进一步探究硒对免疫功能的影响。
