Gigantecin: A novel antimitotic and cytotoxic acetogenin,with nonadjacent tetrahydrofuran rings,fromGoniothalamus giganteus (Annonaceae)

Summary Gigantecin (I), a novel tetrahydroxy-di-tetrahydrofuran fatty acid -lactone (acetogenin), was isolated from an ethanolic extract of the stem bark ofGoniothalamus giganteus Hook. f., Thomas (Annonaceae), by means of activity-directed fractionation (brine shrimp lethality test). This new compound is extremely cytotoxic to human tumor cells, inhibits crown gall tumors on potato discs, and is active in an assay designed to detect antimitotic agents (9 ASK).     

Metabolism of 3β-hydroxycholest-5-en-26-oic acid in hamsters

Summary Metabolism of 26-hydroxycholesterol to 3-hydroxychol-5-en-24-oic acid and other C24-bile acids has been expected to occur by way of 3-hydroxycholest-5-en-26-oic acid in studies in vitro. 3-Hydroxycholest-5-en-26-oic acid was infused intravenously into bile fistula hamsters and the following C24-bile acids were identified: 3-hydroxychol-5-en-24-oic acid, lithocholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and a small amount of cholic acid.     

扩展裂纹缺陷评定方法的优化研究

裂纹扩展的缺陷评定方法,越益受到了人们的重视,美国ＥＰＲＩ提出的“裂纹 推力图”方法,虽然准确合理,但方法偏于繁复,尚难于向工程界推广。清华大学力学 研究所曾先后提出几种评定方法,以期使评定过程得以简化。在此基础上,文章提出 “相容应力增量”法作为优化方法,它将使全部评定过程大为简化,从而为扩展裂纹的 缺陷评定方法向工程界推广创造便利条件。     

Cholecystokinin is not a major regulator in the digestive system in the chicken

To find out whether physiological concentrations of cholecystokinin (CCK), a gastrointestinal hormone in mammals, are also active in chickens, the pancreatic amylase secretory response to CCK-8 was investigated in vitro. Rat pancreatic acini responded to the physiological concentration of CCK-8, but in chickens amylase release was induced at a concentration of CCK-8 1000 times higher than that observed in rats. In another experiment, biliary flow was tested with several doses of CCK-8. The bile flow was stimulated in a dose-dependent fashion, but a significant enhancement was not obtained at a concentration of 0.5 g CCK-8/kg body weight, which was considerably higher than physiological ones. It is concluded that endogeneous CCK does not have an important role in the digestive system in the chicken.     

Occurrence of 3-epi-22-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone and its phosphoric ester in diapause eggs of the silkworm,Bombyx mori

Ecdysteroids in diapause eggs of the silkworm,Bombyx mori, were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with radioimmunoassay (RIA). A relatively large amount of an unidentified free ecdysteroid and its phosphoric ester (conjugated form) were detected. These two compounds were isolated by a combination of column chromatography on silicic acid, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and HPLC using a reverse-phase (RP) column. The purified compounds were identified as 3-epi-22-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone (22d20E) and 3-epi-22-deoxy-20-hydroxyecdysone 2-phosphate (22d20E2P) by means of mass spectrometry and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. to our knowledge, this is the first report of 22d20E and 22d20E2P.

改进的SIFT特征匹配算法

针对SIFT特征匹配算法在特征空间中进行历遍搜索,匹配速度慢的问题,提出一种金字塔层间匹配算法。首先,根据特征点所处金字塔层不同将特征点划分为不同的集合,其次,选择待配准图像金字塔中某一层集合,在基准图像金字塔中寻找相似层,并确定待配准图像金字塔与基准图像金字塔层之间的相似关系,最后,在相似层之间寻找匹配点。待配准图像中的选择层集合由金字塔底层到顶层,寻找相似层所用时间依次缩短。与原算法相比,该算法具有相同的旋转稳定性。将该算法与原算法分别应用实际图像配准中,结果表明:可见光图像配准中,匹配速度提高了3.2倍,正确匹配率提高了10.3％,红外图像配准中,匹配速度提高1.4倍,正确匹配率达到100％。     

血清金属元素含量与缺血性脑血管病相互关系探讨

对缺血性脑血管病（ＩＣＶＤ）患者血清Ｚｎ、Ｃｕ、Ｃｒ、Ｍｇ元素进行测定,结果表明患者血清Ｃｕ、Ｃｒ、Ｍｇ含量比对照组低,Ｚｎ含量和Ｚｎ／Ｃｕ比值比对照组高,测定患者Ｚｎ／Ｃｕ比值较测定单一元素Ｚｎ、Ｃｕ更有意义。
