An on-line multi-parameter analyzing optical biosensor for real-time and non-invasive monitoring of plant stress responses in vivo

Photosynthetic dysfunction and reactive oxygen species （ROS） production are the common features of plant stress responses. Based on quantitative measurement of ROS production and delayed fluorescence （DF） emission, which is an excellent marker for evaluating photosynthesis, an on-line multiparameter analyzing optical biosensor for detecting plant stress responses was developed. Performances of the proposed biosensor were tested in the wild type （WT） Arabidopsis and heat shock protein （Hsp） 101 T-DNA knockout mutant （hsp101） plants with different thermotolerance. Results demonstrated that DF intensity correlates with net photosynthesis rate （Pn） in response to elevated temperature in both the WT Arabidopsis and hsp101 mutant plants. The light response characteristics and the recovery dynamics of the DF intensity were also in line with those of Pn in both the WT Arabidopsis and hsp101 mutant plants after heat stress （HS, 40℃ for 30 min）, respectively. In all experiments discussed above, the hsp101 plant showed the worse photosynthetic performance than the WT plant. Moreover, after HS, more ROS production in the hsp101 mutant than in WT Arabidopsis, which was found to be mainly localized at chloroplasts, could be directly detected by using the proposed biosensor. In addition, the hsp101 mutant showed severer chloroplasts alterations than the WT plant within the first 1 h of recovery following HS. Nevertheless, pre-infiltration with catalase （CAT） reduced ROS production and prevented the declines of the DF intensity. Therefore, HS-caused declines of photosynthetic performance might be due to oxidative damage to photosynthetic organelle. To sum up, we conclude that Hsp101 plays an important role in preventing oxidative stress, and the proposed optical biosensor might be a powerful tool to determine plant stress responses and identify plant resistant difference.

调查了DXS101、DXS6809基因座在中国四川地区汉族群体中的遗传多态性。采用PCR、聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳及银染技术分析中国四川地区汉族群体中DXSl01、DXS6809基因座的遗传多态性,获得其群体遗传学数据。两个基因座在165名中国四川地区汉族无关个体中各发现10个等位基因,DXSl01观测到27种基因型,DXS6809观测到24种基因型。两个基因座在女性样本中的基因型频率分布符合Hardy-Weinberg平衡。说明DXS101、DXS6809在中国四川地区汉族中具有较高的遗传多态性,在法医学个人识别和女性的父权鉴定应用中有较大价值。     

突变型P53和肿瘤易感基因101在肺癌组织中的表达及意义

探讨了P53基因突变对肺癌组织中TSG101基因的影响,结果是:TSG101在正常组织中呈强阳性表达100%(30/30),在高分化肺癌(包括肺鳞癌和肺腺癌)组织、低分化肺癌组织、淋巴结转移组织的表达分别为77.97%(92/118)、25.37%(17/67)、18.95%(18/95);P53的表达则相反,在正常组织、高分化肺癌组织、低分化肺癌组织、淋巴结转移组织的表达分别为6.67%(2/30)、67.80%(80/118)、86.57%(58/67)、94.63%(90/95);P53基因PCR-SSCP分析谱检测P53第5~8外显子阴性56例占30.27%,阳性129例占69.73%,总突变率为69.73%(127/180);P53与TSG101呈现负相关.这些结果提示P53和TSG101可能共同参与了肺癌的发生、发展和转移.     

循环加载下铸造铝合金中硅颗粒的破坏行为

研究了在等效应变幅为0.22%时ZL101 T6铝合金在单轴、比例、非比例圆形路径下的低周疲劳行为,并用金相显微镜观察了在循环加载条件下硅颗粒的破坏行为.结果表明:在循环加载下,硅颗粒表现出断裂和与铝基体界面分离2种破坏行为,但以断裂方式为主;硅颗粒的形貌、大小、分布对硅颗粒的断裂行为有重要影响,形貌率大、颗粒长轴方向平行于拉伸轴或位于试样表面、孔洞边沿突起的硅颗粒优先发生断裂;不同的加载路径可改变硅颗粒的断裂方式,在多轴非比例加载下,同一硅颗粒可能会在多个方向上发生断裂,而在单轴或比例加载下一般只能出现平行断裂或普通断裂;断裂硅颗粒可影响疲劳裂纹的萌生和扩展,在不同路径下硅颗粒的断裂速率由大到小依次是非比例网形路径、比例路径、单轴加载.
