一种标定立体成像系统的新方法

在立体成像系统中，两相机的位置、取向、倾角由于机械上的困难，很难保证固定不变。因此，在匹配问题解决后，必须对成像系统进行标定，才能最终提取关于景物的三维信息，基于此，提出了一种成像系统的模型及其误差量定义，同时给出了用最小二乘法拟合立体成像系统参数的算法。

基于小波包的信号检测算法

针对多个相似信号分量的到达时间检测问题提出了一种基于小波包理论的新算法（ＷａｖｅｌｅｔＰａｃｋｅｔｓＤｅｔｅｃｔｉｏｎＡｌｇｏｒｉｔｈｍ，ＷＰＤＡ）．即使在各信号分量严重重叠的情况下，该算法都能非常精确地确定各分量的到达时间。为了进行比较，引用了Ｂ．Ｆｒｉｅｄｌａｎｄｅｒ提出的改进Ｇａｂｏｒ表征方法（ＩＧＲＭ）及其信号模型。实验证明，小波包检测算法可以得到更为优越的性能。还讨论了小波包检测算法中的正交镜像滤波器选择问题。

在对语音信号进行ＬＰＣ分析的基础上，提出了一种有效的语音基音周期检测算法。该算法利用小波变换中著名的Ｍａｌｌａｔ算法逐层分解ＬＰＣ预测误差信号，在最低分辨率的逼近信号中寻找峰值，然后逐层回溯各个分辨率的逼近信号，最后在ＬＰＣ预测误差中确定出峰值，从而求出相应的基音周期。     

Baclofen prevents rapid amygdala kindling in adult rats

This study investigates the effect of the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA_B) agonist, baclofen, on amygdala kindling in adult rats. Baclofen has been reported to be anticonvulsant in a variety of seizure models and prevents kindling in immature rats. These experiments describe the effects of baclofen (2, 5 and 10 mg/kg, i.p.) on the afterdischarge threshold and kindling rate. Baclofen, 10 mg/kg, significantly increased the afterdischarge threshold in the amygdala. Baclofen at 5 and 10 mg/kg, retarded the rate of kindling as measured by the number of stimuli required to advance to subsequent seizure stages. These results suggest that baclofen may decrease the local excitability of the amygdala and retard the rate of seizure spread (or generalization) throughout the brain. Baclofen, acting at GABA_B receptors exerts an anticonvulsant effect on amygdala kindling in these experiments.     

Protective effect of Shigyaku-to,a traditional Chinese herbal medicine,on the infection of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) in mice

The antiviral activity of Shigyaku-to (TJS-109), a traditional Chinese herbal medicine, was investigated in mice infected with herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1). TJS-109 is a combination of the medicinal plant extracts fromZingiberis siccatum rhizoma,Aconiti tuber andGlycyrrhizae radix in a specific proportion. Mice infected with a 10 LD₅₀ dose of HSV-1 were treated with TJS-109 orally at doses of 1.25 to 20 mg/kg 2 days before, and 1 and 4 days after the infection. The treated groups had 80% (1.25 mg/kg), 40% (5 mg/kg) and 23% (20 mg/kg) mortality rates 25 days after the infection as compared with a 100% mortality rate in control mice treated with saline. When HSV-1 infected mice (recipients) received CD8⁺T cell fractions derived from spleens of mice treated with TJS-109 (donors), 70% of recipients survived, as compared with 0% survivors in the groups of mice treated with saline, B cell fractions, CD4⁺ T cell fractions or macrophage-enriched fractions prepared from the same donors. TJS-109 did not show any virucidal activities against HSV-1 or any virostatic activities on the growth of HSV-1 in Vero cells. These results suggest that TJS-109 protected mice exposed to lethal amounts of HSV-1 through the activation of CD8⁺ T cells.

Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II increases glutamate and noradrenaline release from synaptosomes

A variety of evidence indicates that calcium-dependent protein phosphorylation modulates the release of neurotransmitter from nerve terminals. For instance, the injection of rat calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (Ca2+/CaM-dependent PK II) into the preterminal digit of the squid giant synapse leads to an increase in the release of a so-far unidentified neurotransmitter induced by presynaptic depolarization. But until now, it has not been demonstrated that Ca2+/CaM-dependent PK II can also regulate neurotransmitter release in the vertebrate nervous system. Here we report that the introduction of Ca2+/CaM-dependent PK II, autoactivated by thiophosphorylation, into rat brain synaptosomes (isolated nerve terminals) increases the initial rate of induced release of two neurotransmitters, glutamate and noradrenaline. We also show that introduction of a selective peptidergic inhibitor of Ca2+/CaM-dependent PK II inhibits the initial rate of induced glutamate release. These results support the hypothesis that activation of Ca2+/CaM-dependent PK II in the nerve terminal removes a constraint on neurotransmitter release.
