~(14)C草甘膦在大蓟、小蓟植株中吸收输导作用的研究

用~(14)C草甘膦处理大蓟和小蓟的叶子试验证明,这两种杂草吸收草甘膦后具有双向输导性能。其吸收速度和植株各部分的药量分布是不同的,施药一天后总吸收量较少,占总药量的4.05％,但三天后明显增加,到第六天达到44.54％。而叶子的吸收高峰是处理后3～7天。根部的吸收量,从处理后一天的14.42％,到第六天增加到93.8％。但是,处理七天后,仍有50％左右的药剂未被植株所吸收。所以,草甘膦施药期不宜太迟,同时,施药方法要保证有足够的药量覆盖杂草茎叶上并被吸收。

Oldest playable musical instruments found at Jiahu early Neolithic site in China

Excavations at the early Neolithic site of Jiahu in Henan Province, China have produced what may be the earliest complete, playable, tightly-dated multinote musical instruments. Jiahu was occupied from 7000 BC to 5700 BC, considerably antedating the well known Peiligang culture. Here we describe six exquisitely made complete flutes which were found in radiocarbon-dated excavation layers, along with fragments of perhaps 30 more. The flutes are made from the ulnae of the red-crowned crane (Grus japonensis Millen) and have 5, 6, 7 and 8 holes. The best preserved flute has been played and tonally analysed. In addition to early musical artefacts, the archaeological record at Jiahu contains important information on the very foundations of Chinese society. We describe the archaeological characteristics of the Jiahu site, details concerning its dating, its place in the prehistory of the Chinese Neolithic, the ethnicity of its population and the results of a tonal analysis of a nearly 9,000-year-old musical instrument found there.     

The regulatory role of phosphodiesterase in adenosine cyclic 3′,5′-monophosphate mediated ACTH action

Résumé Le désoxycholate de soude inhibe fortement l'activité de la phosphodiestérase surrénalienne du rat. Par contre, l'administration de l'ACTH in vivo augmente cette activité en présence du déoxycholate. In vitro, chez le rat traité préalablement par le l'ACTH, cette activité est moins inhibée par le désoxycholate dans la fraction particulière comme dans la fraction surnageante. L'action de l'ACTH joue donc un rôle régulateur de la phosphodiestérase.     

Urocortin-deficient mice show hearing impairment and increased anxiety-like behavior

Urocortin is a member of the corticotropin-releasing hormone peptide family and is found in many discrete brain regions. The distinct expression pattern of urocortin suggests that it influences such behaviors as feeding, anxiety and auditory processing. To better define the physiological roles of urocortin, we have generated mice carrying a null mutation of the urocortin gene. Urocortin-deficient mice have normal basal feeding behavior and stress responses, but show heightened anxiety-like behaviors in the elevated plus maze and open-field tests. In addition, hearing is impaired in the mutant mice at the level of the inner ear, suggesting that urocortin is involved in the normal development of cochlear sensory-cell function. These results provide the first example of a function for any peptidergic system in hearing.     

Annexin II light chain regulates sensory neuron-specific sodium channel expression

The tetrodotoxin-resistant sodium channel Na(V)1.8/SNS is expressed exclusively in sensory neurons and appears to have an important role in pain pathways. Unlike other sodium channels, Na(V)1.8 is poorly expressed in cell lines even in the presence of accessory beta-subunits. Here we identify annexin II light chain (p11) as a regulatory factor that facilitates the expression of Na(V)1.8. p11 binds directly to the amino terminus of Na(V)1.8 and promotes the translocation of Na(V)1.8 to the plasma membrane, producing functional channels. The endogenous Na(V)1.8 current in sensory neurons is inhibited by antisense downregulation of p11 expression. Because direct association with p11 is required for functional expression of Na(V)1.8, disrupting this interaction may be a useful new approach to downregulating Na(V)1.8 and effecting analgesia.
