家蚕性别相关血液蛋白质组的一维电泳-液相色谱-质谱分析

分别从家蚕5龄幼虫和蛹期不同发育阶段提取雌、雄蚕血液总蛋白质,采用一维电泳-液相色谱-质谱(1DE-LC-MS)技术分析家蚕血液蛋白质的差异性表达及差异蛋白组分。在家蚕血液蛋白质含量与种类方面检测到与性别及发育相关的差异性表达,数据库检索结果共获得96个相匹配的候选蛋白质,剔除冗余部分后鉴定其中的27个蛋白质组分,分别属于13种蛋白质或其亚基。雌、雄蚕之间的差异组分主要出现在分子质量70~100 kD之间,其中芳基贮存蛋白、卵黄蛋白原、抗胰凝乳蛋白酶因子为雌特异性表达组分。30K蛋白家族是家蚕血液中高丰度表达的蛋白组分。这些差异蛋白质的鉴定与功能分析为研究家蚕性别发育调控机制提供了新的信息。     

饲料蛋白和脂肪水平对云纹石斑鱼幼鱼免疫和抗氧化性能的影响

采用蛋白和脂肪水平双因素实验,通过检测云纹石斑鱼血清、肝脏和肌肉中免疫与抗氧化指标,为饲料蛋白和脂肪的适宜配比提供依据。以鱼粉和豆粕作蛋白源,鱼油和大豆油混合油作脂肪源,3个蛋白水平分别为:35%、40%、45%,每个蛋白水平分别设3个脂肪水平:9%、12%、15%,每组3个重复。LZM活力和IgM含量在蛋白水平40%~45%时较高,也呈现随脂肪水平增加而上升的趋势,且蛋白水平比脂肪水平和交互作用对LZM和IgM有更显著的影响。肝脏SOD活力在40%蛋白水平时较高,在低蛋白水平(35%)时SOD活力随脂肪水平上升而增强,而高蛋白水平(45%)时则相反。蛋白、脂肪水平和交互作用对CAT活力均有显著影响,蛋白水平较高CAT活力较强。肌肉SOD和CAT活力变化趋势与肝脏大致相反。MDA含量随蛋白水平增加而减小,蛋白水平对肝脏和肌肉MDA都有显著作用,随着饲料脂肪水平增加肝脏MDA显著下降。实验表明,饲料中蛋白质含量维持在一定水平(40%左右)是必要的,当蛋白需求满足时,适当增加脂肪水平有利于鱼体健康。

Comparative evaluation of MCP gene in worldwide strains of Megalocytivirus (Iridoviridae family) for early diagnostic marker

Members of the Iridoviridae family have been considered as aetiological agents of iridovirus diseases, causing fish mortalities and economic losses all over the world. Virus identification based on candidate gene sequencing is faster, more accurate and more reliable than other traditional phenotype methodologies. Iridoviridae viruses are covered by a protein shell (capsid) encoded by the important candidate gene, major capsid protein (MCP). In this study, we investigated the potential of the MCP gene for use in the diagnosis and identification of infections caused Megalocytivirus of the Iridoviridae family. We selected data of 66 Iridoviridae family isolates (53 strains of Megalocytivirus, eight strains of iridoviruses and five strains of Ranavirus) infecting various species of fish distributed all over the world. A total of 53 strains of Megalocytivirus were used for designing the complete primer sets for identifying the most hypervariable region of the MCP gene. Further, our in silico analysis of 102 sequences of related and unrelated viruses reconfirms that primer sets could identify strains more specifically and offers a useful and fast alternative for routine clinical laboratory testing. Our findings suggest that phenotype observation along with diagnosis using universal primer sets can help detect infection or carriers at an early stage.     

芜菁花叶病毒不同分离物3'-cDNA片段的克隆及序列分析

 从河北、北京、山东泰安和潍坊等地区的萝卜、大白菜、甘蓝、油菜上得到8个芜菁花叶病毒(Turnip mosaic virus,TuMV)分离物,测定了它们3'-末端cDNA片段的序列。根据衣壳蛋白基因(cp)核苷酸序列可以将这8个分离物与另外2个TuMV分离物分为3组:泰安旧镇大白菜(JZBC)、甘蓝(JZGL)和萝卜(JZLB)分离物为一组;北京(BJILB)、潍坊萝卜分离物(WFLB)与引起萝卜红心病的TuMV分离物(WFLB99)为一组;泰安范镇、河北、潍坊(WFLB04)萝卜和泰安旧镇油菜(JZYC)上的TuMV分离物为一组。农壳蛋白氨基酸序列比较结果与此基本一致,所不同的是分离物WFLB99与所有分离物的差异均较大,形成单独一个分支。有必要对TuMV的变异情况和致病机理进行深入研究。     

玉米青贮与花生秧配比对奶牛瘤胃中花生秧降解特性的影响

本试验旨在研究玉米青贮与花生秧配比对奶牛瘤胃中花生秧降解特性的影响。选择4头体重、生理状态、生产性能相近,装有永久瘤胃瘘管的中国荷斯坦奶牛,分别饲喂含有玉米青贮与花生秧不同配比的全混合日粮(TMR),3种TMR中玉米青贮与花生秧的干物质(DM)配比分别为3.9∶1.0(A组)、1.2∶1.0(B组)、0.4∶1.0(C组)。试验分3期进行,依次进行A、B、C组试验。每期预试15 d,采样期4 d;共57 d。采用尼龙袋瘤胃降解技术测定花生秧在奶牛瘤胃中DM、粗蛋白质(CP)、中性洗涤纤维(NDF)和酸性洗涤纤维(ADF)的72 h瘤胃降解率,并求得目标养分的动态降解参数及有效降解率。结果表明:1)花生秧的DM在瘤胃中有效降解率为56.49%~59.62%,CP为40.45%~47.36%,NDF为33.26%~35.20%,ADF为36.31%~37.45%。2)B组DM的有效降解率显著高于C组(P0.05),极显著高于A组(P0.01);B、C组的CP有效降解率显著高于A组(P0.05)。3)B、C组的NDF快速降解部分含量显著高于A组(P0.05);3种TMR对花生秧粗NDF和ADF有效降解率无显著影响(P0.05)。由此可见,花生秧具有较高的饲用价值。本试验条件下,玉米青贮与花生秧DM配比为1.2∶1.0时,可有效提高花生秧DM和CP的瘤胃降解率。     

SIRT1 promotes autophagy of pancreatic cancer cells induced by hypoxia via regulating FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway

AIM: To investigate the effect of SIRT1 on the autophagy of pancreatic cancer cells under hypoxia condition, and to analyze the underlying mechanism of regulating FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway. METHODS: Western blot and immunofluorescence methods were used to determine the expression of SIRT1 in the pancreatic cancer cells. The small interfering RNA targeting SIRT1 and SIRT1 over-expression plasmid were transfected into the pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells. Confocal microscopy was used to detect the LC3 expression. Western blot was used to analyze the protein levels of LC3, p62 and FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway-related molecules. Co-immunoprecipitation was used to detected the protein interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO1. RESULTS: The expression level of SIRT1 in the nucleus of Panc-1 cells was increased under hypoxia condition. Compared with negative control under hypoxia condition, knock-down of SIRT1 expression attenuated the autophagy flux in the pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells (P<0.05). Over-expression of SIRT1 increased the protein levels of FOXO1 and RAB7. On the contrary, knock-down of SIRT1 expression inhibited the protein levels of FOXO1 and RAB7. The protein interaction between SIRT1 and FOXO1 in the pancreatic cancer cells was observed. CONCLUSION: SIRT1 in pancreatic cancer Panc-1 cells under hypoxia condition is over-expressed in the nucleus. Down-regulation of SIRT1 inhibits autophagy and its mechanism may be related to FOXO1/RAB7 signaling pathway.
