骨形态发生蛋白7在兔卵巢中的表达分析

为探讨BMP7蛋白在卵泡发育、黄体化和排卵过程中的作用,本研究采用免疫组织化学方法检测了BMP7在兔卵巢中的表达定位情况.结果显示, BMP7蛋白在兔卵巢原始卵泡和初级卵泡中未检测到表达;在次级卵泡卵母细胞及有腔卵泡的各种细胞中都有表达,但只在部分内膜细胞中表达;在间质细胞、黄体及表面上皮中也有表达.由此表明,BMP7没有参与兔原始卵泡的激活,而在初级/次级卵泡转化以及其后的卵泡成熟过程中发挥了作用;BMP7不仅是卵泡内膜细胞分泌因子,而且也是卵母细胞和颗粒细胞分泌因子.对BMP7的表达来说卵泡内膜细胞存在功能性差异.BMP7可能参与了兔黄体、排卵等活动的调节.     

TIMP-4 mRNA在小鼠子宫中的表达和激素调节

为研究TIMP-4 mRNA在子宫中的变化规律,采用半定量RT-PCR方法,观察了TIMP-4 mRNA在出生后小鼠子宫不同发育期、动情周期、妊娠早期以及假孕早期子宫中的表达和激素调节。结果发现,TIMP-4 mRNA在出生后不同发育期的小鼠子宫中、动情周期的任何时期、妊娠第1天以及假孕第1天的子宫中都不表达,但在妊娠和假孕第2天、第3天、第4天的子宫中都表达。以上结果提示,TIMP-4 mRNA在妊娠小鼠子宫中的表达可能不依赖存活胚胎的激活,而可能受母体妊娠分泌物的上调。     

载rhBMP-2聚乳酸/磷酸钙支架在兔脊柱融合中的应用

脊柱融合术是治疗脊柱退变性疾病的常用方法,提高植骨材料的成骨活性对提高脊柱融合效果具有重要意义。重组人骨形态发生蛋白-2(rhBMP-2)是一种促进新骨生成的生长因子,能够快速诱导骨修复。将rhBMP-2通过物理吸附负载于聚乳酸/磷酸钙多孔支架表面,再将表面涂覆羟丙甲基纤维素（HPMC）涂层,得到HPMC涂层改性的载rhBMP-2聚乳酸/磷酸钙支架。rhBMP-2的负载使支架具有诱导成骨活性,而HPMC涂层能够使rhBMP-2的释放减缓,有利于促进新骨生成。将该支架植入兔脊柱84 d后发现脊柱椎体间生成了连续的骨组织,达到了骨性融合,因此HPMC改性的载rhBMP-2聚乳酸/磷酸钙支架是一种可用于脊柱融合植骨的理想材料。     

BMP2对骨肉瘤细胞株MG63的作用机制

为探讨骨形态发生蛋白2(BMP2)在体外抑制人骨肉瘤细胞株MG63的增殖和迁移并促使其凋亡的作用机制,分别用绿色荧光蛋白重组腺病毒(AdGFP)、骨形态发生蛋白2重组腺病毒(AdBMP2)感染人骨肉瘤细胞MG63,用RT-PCR和免疫细胞化学法检测核录因子κB(NF-κKB)、有丝分裂素激活蛋白激酶激酶4(MKK-4)的mRNA和蛋白水平变化.结果发现.AdBMP2降低MG63中NF-κB的mRNA水平和蛋白表达,分别为对照组的38.2%和42.5%(P<0.05);但未能检测到对MKK-4表达的影响.研究表明,BMP2可以显著降低细胞中NF-κB的mRNA水平和蛋白水平.这可能是其抑制细胞增殖和迁移、促进凋亡的机制之一.

Expression of Smad2 and Smad4 in rhesus monkey endometrium during the menstrual cycle and early pregnancy

Expression of Smad2 and Smad4 mRNAs in the endometrium of rhesus monkey on Days 8, 20 and 28 of the normal menstrual cycle and on Days 12, 18 and 26 of early pregnancy was detected using in situ hybridization. The results showed that Smad2 and Smad4 mRNAs were mainly localized in luminal epithelium and glandular epithelium. The expression of Smad2 mRNA in glandular epithelium was sustained at moderate level on Days 8, 20 and 28 of the menstrual cycle, while the expression of Smad4 gradually increased with the menstrual cycle. Both Smad2 and Smad4 mRNAs in functionalis glandular epithelium were expressed at the highest levels on Day 12 of early pregnancy, while in basalis glandular epithelium the most abundant expression of both Smads occurred on Days 12 and 18 of pregnancy. On Day 26, both Smads mRNAs were expressed at the lowest levels either in functionalis or in basalis. The data suggest that the epithelium is the major compartment where TGF-βs/activins exert their biological effects via Smads, and that Smad4 may play a role in the maintenance of endometrial gland function during secreting period of the menstrual cycle. During lacunar stage of early pregnancy, Smad2 and Smad4 are implicated in the tissue remodeling of endometrial functionalis and basalis, and during early villous stage both Smads are functional primarily in basalis.     

Regulation of BMP4 on the proliferation and differentiation in SVZa neural stem cells

The neural stem cells in the anterior subventricular zone (SVZa) mainly generate the progenitors that will differentiate into neurons, and along a highly circumscribed migratory access Rostral migratory stream (RMS), they migrate to the olfactory bulbs (OB). To understand the effects of BMPs on SVZa neural stem cells, in this study BMP4 at various concentrations was used to induce SVZa neural stem cells, and the living cell labeling using BMP4 promotor conjugated with red fluorescence protein showed the expression of BMP4 dynamically. The results demonstrated that low BMP4 doses (1-5 ng/mL) promoted while high doses (10-100 ng/mL) inhibited the proliferation of SVZa neural stem cells, and BMP4 promotedneuron differentiation in the early stage (1-3 d), howeverm, it inhibited the neuron commitment after 4 d. Noggin, the antagonist of BMP4, blocked the physiological effects of BMP4. In OB, BMP4 is mainly to accelerate the progenitors to withdraw from the cell cycle and trigger the differentiation, and in RMS, it promotes the proliferation of committed progenitors and not differentiation, further in SVZa, BMP4 enhances astrocyte commitment.     

PTEN、EGFR和GH在子宫内膜异位症和异位恶变内膜中的表达及意义

目的：研究PTEN、EGFR（epidermal growth factor receptor）和GH（humangrowthhormone）在子宫内膜异位症（endometriosis,EMs）和异位恶变内膜中的表达及意义,探讨EMs恶变机理及特点。方法：应用免疫组织化学方法,检查PTEN、人表皮生长因子受体（EGFR）及生长激素（GH）在子宫内膜异位症在位、异位及异位恶变内膜组织中的表达。结果：PTEN在24例在位、异位和异位恶变内膜中的阳性率分别为66．67％（16／24）、37．50％（9／24）和20．00％（1／5）,异位和异位恶变内膜中的阳性率远低于在位内膜,差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）,而异位、异位恶变内膜间的阳性率差别不大,说明两者的生物学特点相似;GH在在位、异位和异位恶变内膜的阳性率分别为87．18％（102／117）、85．38％（111／130）和80．00％（4／5）;EGFR在在位、异位和异位恶变内膜中的阳性率分别为54．70％（64／117）、89．23％（116／130）和80．00％（4／5）,异位和异位恶变内膜的阳性率均高于在位内膜。GH、EGFR在异位和异位恶变内膜中的阳性率接近。因此,提出不典型EMs（atypical endometriosis,aEM）和EMs恶性变的诊断标准。结论：子宫内膜异位症拥有肿瘤组织的局部浸润、远处转移等生物学特点,容易恶变。GH、EGFR和PTEN在子宫内膜异位症的发生、发展及恶变过程中起重要作用。PTEN表达水平的下降和缺失,同时伴有EGFR、GH的高表达可被视为内异症恶性转化的重要标志。

Expression profile analysis of 9 heat shock protein genes throughout the life cycle and under abiotic stress in rice

Plant heat shock proteins (Hsps) facilitate protein folding or assembly under diverse developmental and adverse environmental conditions. Nine OsHsps were identified in our previous study from a proteomic analysis of rice cv. IRAT 109 leaf samples at the seedling stage under drought stress. To obtain additional information on the 9 OsHsp genes, this study focused on an expression profile analysis at different development stages throughout the life cycle of rice, and under different abiotic stresses and phyto-hormone treatments. The 9 genes exhibited distinctive expression patterns in different organs or development stages. Five of the genes (OsHsp72.90, OsHsp72.57, OsHsp71.18, OsHsp24.15 and OsHsp18.03) showed high expression in the endosperm, indicating that OsHsp genes may play important roles in rice seed development. All 9 OsHsps were up-regulated under heat, polyethylene glycol, and abscisic acid treatment, whereas salt stress caused up-regulation of 6 genes (OsHsp93.04, OsHsp71.10, OsHsp71.18, OsHsp72.57, OsHsp24.15 and OsHsp18.03) and cold stress resulted in down-regulation of OsHsp93.04 and OsHsp72.57. These diverse expression profiles imply potential functional diversity of the Hsp gene family in rice.     

Effect of P15INK4b expression on the cell cycle and G1 phase related regulatory genes in human melanoma cells

Using the transfeetion teehnique. P15INK4b was introduced into P15INk4b gene deleted human melanoma A375 cells,and a cell model MLED6 overexpressing P15INK4b WAS CONSTRUCTED.Comparing with the control cells MLC2,MLEK6cells in G1phase increased by 11%,but those in Sphase decreased by 15%by FCM.By the method of thymidine(TdR)and N2O arresting,the proportions of synchronized Mphase cells of MLEK6 ana MLC23 were measured and found to be 89.1% and 76.8%respectively ,and the cells in G1phase were 74.3% for MLID6 AND 76. 4% forMLC2.The result of3 H-TdR incorporation indicated that the transition of G1/Sof MLEK6 cell was delayed 2h as compared with that of MLC2 cells,and incorporation rate also decreased.The observation on exprissions of some G1/ S-resates relatory rigusating genes showed that in MLIK6 cells the protein leves of P27KIPI increased with the decreasing expressions of cyclinD1,cyclinE and c-myc,especially cyclinD1 in late G1phade.The expression of cyclinE obviously decreased at G1/S transition ,and c-myc wad inhibited throughout all the process of G1 S phase.All the risults suggest that P15INK4b can delayG1/S transition of MLEK6 cells by inhibiting the cell cycle engine ,and by increasing the expression of Cdk ingibitor P27KIPI in different stages of G1 phase.     

Observed and simulated features of the CO2 diurnal cycle in the boundary layer at Beijing and Hefei,China

The mechanism of the CO2diurnal cycle is a basis for investigating the carbon budget and its impacts on climate and environment change.Regional diurnal variations in CO2concentration based on observations and modeling have been studied widely.However,few studies have focused on the pattern of the CO2diurnal cycle in China.In this study,a three-dimensional global chemical transport model,Goddard Earth Observing System(GEOS)-Chem,was applied to simulate the CO2concentration and its variation over China from 2004 to 2012.Meanwhile,we also analyzed the CO2concentration as observed by two eddy covariance flux observation towers,one located in Beijing(39°580N,116°220E)and one in Hefei(31°550N,117°100E),using LI-COR 7500A infrared gas analyzers.Observations showed the amplitude of the CO2diurnal cycle at Hefei to be larger than at Beijing,due to stronger ecological activities.GEOS-Chem successfully captured the main aspects of the diurnal cycle of the CO2concentration in the boundary layer observed at both Beijing and Hefei.However,some discrepancies between the model and observations did exist;specifically,the model tended to underestimate the amplitude of the CO2diurnal cycle.The data also showed that traffic emissions significantly enhanced the CO2concentration in the boundary layer.
