Zinc antagonizes the effect of botulinum type A toxin at the mouse neuromuscular junction

Summary Zn²⁺ (10–100 M) elevated the frequency of miniature end-plate potentials (MEPPs) in the mouse diaphragm. The effect did not depend on external Ca²⁺. Botulinum type A toxin (BTX_A, 50 ng/ml) abolished MEPPs almost completely within 30 min. Zn²⁺ (100 M) restored MEPPs and increased their frequency after they had been abolished by BTX_A in Ca²⁺-free solutions. The antagonistic effect of Zn²⁺ in the Ca²⁺-free solution was reduced by exposing the diaphragm to the toxin in the Ca²⁺-free solutions containing high K⁺. Thus, the action of BTX_A is probably enhanced by depolarization of the motor nerve terminals.

Non-host-selective fungal phytotoxins: Biochemical aspects of their mode of action

During the last decade increasing attention has been directed towards the biochemical mechanisms responsible for the biological activity of phytotoxins. Studies on the mode of action of some non-host-selective phytotoxins, some following on from previous observations, have demonstrated a very specific interaction with particular components of the cell machinery, and have suggested the possible use of these phytotoxins as tools for the investigation of important biochemical processes. This review article reports and discusses results of studies carried out in the 1980s with seven non-host-selective fungal toxins: brefeldin A, cercosporin,Cercospora beticola toxin, fusicoccin, ophiobolins, tentoxin, and zinniol. Each of these interferes with the life of the host by interacting with a different biochemical target.     

Maternal vitamin A restriction alters biochemical development of the brain in rats

Summary The biochemical development of the fetal brain in relation to maternal vitamin A restriction was studied in rats. The vitamin A status of pregnant rats was varied by supplying low, medium and adequate amounts (6, 40, and 100 g retinol/day/kg body weight, respectively) of vitamin A during pregnancy and suckling. The maternal vitamin A restriction caused an altered brain development in terms of tissue weight, DNA, RNA and protein levels, and biosynthesis of DNA and protein from [³H]-thymidine and [³H]-leucine, respectively. A dose-dependent effect of maternal vitamin A restriction on the metabolism of DNA, RNA and protein was noticed in the developing fetal brain of rats.     

Influence of bistramide A on the twitch tension in rat atrial heart muscle

Bistramide A, a new toxin isolated from the UrochordateLissoclinum bistratum Sluiter, was applied to rat auricular heart muscle bundles. At a stimulation frequency of 0.2 Hz, the toxin induces a dose-dependent reduction of the stimulated twitch tension force; it decreases and shortens the duration of the plateau and the slow repolarizing phase of the action potential. In the control solution, switching from a stimulation frequency of 0.2 Hz to 1 Hz decreases the force with which a positive potentiation develops either at a maintained high frequency or after switching from 1 Hz to 0.2 Hz. Bistramide A reduces both the force evoked at 1 Hz and the potentiation. The data suggest that Bistramide A blocks Na⁺ conductance; inhibits Ca⁺⁺ channels in a time-and frequency-dependent manner; reduces Na⁺–Ca⁺⁺ exchange activity; but does not modify the ability of the sarcoplasmic reticulum to be refilled although the rate of Ca⁺⁺ accumulation is decreased.     

基于时空图注意力的短期电力负荷预测方法

准确的电力负荷预测对现代电力系统的安全经济运行至关重要.电力负荷预测可以表述为一个具有一定潜在空间依赖性的多变量时序预测问题.然而,大多数现有的电力负荷预测工作未能探索这种空间依赖关系.基于此,本文提出了一种基于时空图注意网络的短期电力负荷预测方法.提出一种基于时空图注意网络模块,该模块使用图注意层实现自适应的捕捉各用户间的潜在空间依赖性,同时使用门控卷积注意力层对各用户用电量在时间维度上进行自适应拟合,以提高网络的预测精度.实际数据实验表明,本文提出的模型整体预测精度提高明显,特别是在一定程度上缓解了长程预测精度恶化的问题,验证了所提方法的有效性与可行性.     

抗Tac单克隆抗体对刀豆蛋白A诱导实验性小鼠肝损伤的影响

本实验利用刀豆蛋白Ａ（ＣｏｎＡ）诱导建立实验性小鼠肝损伤模型,并研究该模型血浆肿瘤坏死因子－α（ＴＮＦ－α）含量的变化,发现小鼠血浆ＴＮＦ－α含量与正常对照组比较明显升高,其差异有极显著意义（Ｐ＜００１）。预先注射抗Ｔａｃ单克隆抗体可减少ＣｏｎＡ注射后小鼠ＴＮＦ－α的产生,与模型组比较,二者血浆ＴＮＦ－α的差异有极显著意义（Ｐ＜００１）。注射抗Ｔａｃ单克隆抗体组无肝损伤发生。上述结果表明,ＣｏｎＡ诱导的肝损伤与ＴＮＦ－α等细胞因子的介导有关,抗Ｔａｃ单克隆抗体对ＣｏｎＡ诱导的肝损伤有保护作用
