Transient receptor potential canonical channels in angiogenesis and axon guidance

Wiring of vascular and neural networks requires precise guidance of growing blood vessels and axons, respectively, to reach their targets during development. Both of the processes share common molecular signaling pathways. Transient receptor potential canonical (TRPC) channels are calcium-permeable cation channels and gated via receptor- or store-operated mechanisms. Recent studies have revealed the requirement of TRPC channels in mediating guidance cue-induced calcium influx and their essential roles in regulating axon navigation and angiogenesis. Dissecting TRPC functions in these physiological processes may provide therapeutic implications for suppressing pathological angiogenesis and improving nerve regeneration.

Serial nuclear transfer improves the development of interspecies reconstructed giant panda (Aluropoda melanoleuca) embryos

Interspecies somatic nuclear transfer (NT) may provide a new approach for preservation of the endangered rare species. Previous interspecies cloning studies have shown that a nucleus from a quiescent somatic cell supports early development of reconstructed embryos in the ooplasm from another species. In this study, we transferred nonquiescent somatic cells from a giant panda into the perivitelline space of the enucleated rabbit oocytes. After electrofusion (at the rate of 71.6%) and electrical activation, 4.2% of the panda-rabbit reconstructed embryos developed to blastocyst in vitro. For improving the development rate of reconstructed embryos, we used serial NT in this study, i.e. blastomeres from reconstructed morulae were transferred into the perivitelline space of the enucleated rabbit oocytes. The fusion rates in the groups of serial I, serial II and serial III were 79.5%, 84.1% and 78.0%, respectively, having no difference with that of somatic group. And the blastocyst rates in serial NT groups were 19.4%, 13.5% and 10.3%, respectively, which are significantly higher than that in somatic NT group. These results indicate that the nuclei from nonquiescent somatic cells can support early development of reconstructed embryos and serial NT can improve the development rate of interspecies reconstructed embryos. These authors contributed equally to this work.     

松辽盆地页岩油藏可动油特征研究

针对松辽盆地青山口组一段页岩油藏19块岩样,开展高速离心和核磁共振实验,建立了储层可动油评价方法,揭示了目标页岩油藏可动油特征;结合高压压汞实验和扫描电镜实验,从孔隙结构角度分析目标油藏可动油特征的原因。结果表明：随着渗透率降低,实验岩心T2谱右峰比例减少,可动油变少。区块一岩心可动油百分数平均17.88%,区块二岩心可动油百分数平均14.56%;不同渗透率岩心均含有一定量微米级渗流通道,两区块岩心中微米喉/缝控制的可动油分别为9.34%和5.7%;0.10～1.0微米喉道控制的可动油比例较低,区块一平均为4.05%,区块二平均为3.22%;小于0.1微米喉道控制的可动油比例区块一为4.49%,区块二为5.64%。高压压汞表明目标页岩油储层基质喉道非常小,主要喉道分布在5纳米～30纳米之间,6块岩心平均喉道半径为30纳米;扫描电镜结果表明,目标页岩油藏基质致密、喉道小,多数孔隙呈孤立状,部分储层发育裂缝隙、间裂缝等微裂缝,非均质性强;储层发育一定比例微裂缝,因此离心力较小时能驱出一定量的原油,但储层基质整体致密,喉道小,导致其总可动油比例较低。     

Screening of the interacting proteins with NifA in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Azospirillum brasilense</Emphasis> Sp7 by the yeast two-hybrid system

NifA in AzospiriUum brasilense plays a key role in regulating the synthesis and activity of nitrogenase in response to ammonia and oxygen available. In this work we used the yeast two-hybrid system to identify the proteins that interact with NifA. The nifA gene was fused to the yeast two-hybrid vector pGBD-C2, and three A. brasilense Sp7 genomic libraries for use in yeast two-hybrid studies were constructed. Screening of the libraries identified four clones encoding proteins that interact with NifA. The confirmation of the interactions of each gene product of the four clones and NifA were carried out by exchanging the vectors for nifA and the four clones and by mutageneses of the four clones with shift reading frame experiments in yeast two-hybrid studies. DNA sequence analyses showed that two clones encode proteins containing PAS domains that play an important role in signal transduction. One clone has high similarity with the fhuE gene of Escherichia coli, whose gene product is involved in iron uptake and transportation, and the other clone encodes an unknown protein.
