上海市百岁老人的谱系及其分析

本文调查了上海市百岁老人的性别、职业和谱系,并绘制了57个完整的寿命谱系图,其中男性10名(占总数的17.5%),女性47名(占82.5%).男性中脑力劳动者4名(占男性总数的40%),体力劳动者6名(占60%);女性中脑力劳动者1人(占女性总数的2.1%),体力劳动者3人(占6.4%),操持家务者43人(占91.5%).有长寿家族史者40人(占寿命家族史清楚者的70.2%),无长寿家族史者17人(占29.8%).百岁老人配偶寿长≥70岁者,其已故子女的平均寿命高于配偶<70岁的.作者认为长寿是遗传的,并着重从遗传和环境两方面分析了女寿星数明显多于男寿星数的原因.

Positional cloning of Sorcs1, a type 2 diabetes quantitative trait locus

We previously mapped the type 2 diabetes mellitus-2 locus (T2dm2), which affects fasting insulin levels, to distal chromosome 19 in a leptin-deficient obese F2 intercross derived from C57BL/6 (B6) and BTBR T+ tf/J (BTBR) mice. Introgression of a 7-Mb segment of the B6 chromosome 19 into the BTBR background (strain 1339A) replicated the reduced insulin linked to T2dm2. The 1339A mice have markedly impaired insulin secretion in vivo and disrupted islet morphology. We used subcongenic strains derived from 1339A to localize the T2dm2 quantitative trait locus (QTL) to a 242-kb segment comprising the promoter, first exon and most of the first intron of the Sorcs1 gene. This was the only gene in the 1339A strain for which we detected amino acid substitutions and expression level differences between mice carrying B6 and BTBR alleles of this insert, thereby identifying variation within the Sorcs1 gene as underlying the phenotype associated with the T2dm2 locus. SorCS1 binds platelet-derived growth factor, a growth factor crucial for pericyte recruitment to the microvasculature, and may thus have a role in expanding or maintaining the islet vasculature. Our identification of the Sorcs1 gene provides insight into the pathway underlying the pathophysiology of obesity-induced type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Complete photo-fragmentation of the deuterium molecule

All properties of molecules--from binding and excitation energies to their geometry--are determined by the highly correlated initial-state wavefunction of the electrons and nuclei. Details of these correlations can be revealed by studying the break-up of these systems into their constituents. The fragmentation might be initiated by the absorption of a single photon, by collision with a charged particle or by exposure to a strong laser pulse: if the interaction causing the excitation is sufficiently understood, the fragmentation process can then be used as a tool to investigate the bound initial state. The interaction and resulting fragment motions therefore pose formidable challenges to quantum theory. Here we report the coincident measurement of the momenta of both nuclei and both electrons from the single-photon-induced fragmentation of the deuterium molecule. The results reveal that the correlated motion of the electrons is strongly dependent on the inter-nuclear separation in the molecular ground state at the instant of photon absorption.
