家蚕丝素重链C末端序列分析、克隆及表达纯化

蚕丝主要由丝素和丝胶蛋白组成,其中丝素包括丝素重链,丝素轻链和P25蛋白。丝素重链蛋白分子量大,体外表达困难,难以分离纯化,很难对其结构进行研究。本文通过对丝素重链基因的分析,以家蚕5龄3d后部丝腺cDNA为模板,克隆获得了丝素重链C末端碱基序列,并将其构建到pET-50b(+)表达载体上,转入到大肠杆菌中进行表达,通过镍柱亲和层析纯化获得了丝素重链C末端的融合蛋白,为进一步研究蚕丝蛋白的折叠和组装奠定了研究基础。     

Effects of acepromazine and dexmedetomidine,followed by propofol induction and maintenance with isoflurane anaesthesia,on the microcirculation of Beagle dogs evaluated by sidestream dark field imaging: an experimental trial

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of intramuscularly administered acepromazine or dexmedetomidine on buccal mucosa microcirculation in Beagle dogs.Study designExperimental, blinded, crossover study.AnimalsA group of seven Beagle dogs aged 7.5 ± 1.4 years (mean ± standard deviation).MethodsMicrocirculation was assessed on buccal mucosa using sidestream dark field videomicroscopy. After baseline measurements, 5 μg kg^–1 dexmedetomidine or 30 μg kg^–1 acepromazine were administered intramuscularly. After 10, 20 and 30 minutes, measurements were repeated. At 40 minutes after premedication, anaesthesia was induced with propofol intravenously and maintained with isoflurane. Measurements were repeated 50, 60 and 65 minutes after the injection of the investigated drugs. Analysed microcirculatory variables were: Perfused de Backer density, Perfused de Backer density of vessels < 20 μm, Proportion of perfused vessels and Proportion of perfused vessels < 20 μm. Heart rate (HR), systolic, diastolic (DAP) and mean (MAP) arterial pressures were recorded at the same time points. Macro- and microcirculatory variables were analysed using a linear mixed model with baseline as a covariate, treatment, trial period and repetition as fixed effects and time and dog as random effect. Results are presented as effect size and confidence interval; p values < 0.05 were considered significant.ResultsAfter acepromazine, Perfused de Backer density was greater during sedation and anaesthesia [3.71 (1.93–5.48 mm mm^–2, p < 0.0001) and 2.3 (0.86–3.75 mm mm^–2, p < 0.003)], respectively, than after dexmedetomidine. HR was significantly lower, whereas MAP and DAP were significantly higher with dexmedetomidine during sedation and anaesthesia (p < 0.0001 for all) compared with acepromazine.Conclusions and clinical relevanceThe sedative drugs tested exerted a significant effect on buccal mucosal microcirculation with a higher Perfused de Backer density after the administration of acepromazine compared with dexmedetomidine. This should be considered when microcirculation is evaluated using these drugs.

漠斑牙鲆(Paralichthys lethostigma)LH β基因克隆及其在卵巢不同发育期的表达特征

利用cDNA末端快速克隆(Rapid Amplification of cDNA Ends,RACE)方法获得了漠斑牙鲆(Paralichthys lethostigma)促黄体素(Luteinizing Hormone,LH)β亚基的cDNA全长序列,检测了LHβ亚基mRNA的组织表达水平,揭示了垂体、肝脏和卵巢中LHβ亚基mRNA在卵巢发育周期中的表达水平变化,利用酶联免疫技术(Enzyme-Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay,ELISA)测定了血浆LH和雌二醇(Estrodiol,E2)表达水平的变化。结果表明,漠斑牙鲆为卵巢非同步发育分批产卵性鱼类,LHβ亚基cDNA序列全长597 bp,开放阅读框(Open reading frame,ORF)长438 bp,编码145个氨基酸,LHβ亚基mRNA具有广泛的组织分布特性。与肝脏和卵巢相比,垂体中LHβ亚基mRNA表达水平在卵巢发育各个阶段都有较高表达水平,在IV期表达水平迅速升高至较高水平并保持至VI期。卵巢中LHβmRNA表达水平在V期达到峰值,而肝脏中LHβmRNA表达水平在II期时达到峰值,在V期也有相对较高的表达水平。血浆LH和E2表达水平在卵巢发育周期中均呈现趋势一致的规律性变化。研究结果可为认识漠斑牙鲆生殖调控机制提供基础资料。
