Pharmacodynamic profile of CQP 201-403, a novel 8α-amino-ergoline

Summary The profile of action in animals of CQP 201-403, a novel 8-amino-ergoline, is in most aspects that of a very potent dopaminomimetic, both as a prolactin secretion inhibitor, and at the levels of the CNS and the cardiovascular system. Qualitatively CQP 201-403 differs slightly from bromocriptine and apomorphine in its effects on the CNS (no influence on serotonin metabolism in the rat cortex; induction of masculine mounting behavior in rats) and the cardiovascular system of the dog (reflex tachycardia in response to a blood-pressure fall). In man the new compound proved to be highly active in lowering prolactin serum levels and to be more potent than bromocriptine (Parlodel^®).In memory of Dr Annemarie Closse, who died 14 June 1987.     

The induction of secondary seed dormancy by oxygen deficiency in a barnyard grassEchinochloa crus-galli

At 25°C, secondary dormancy was induced in seeds ofE. crus-galli exposed for 100 days to oxygen deficiency. By contrast, hypoxia did not induce dormancy at 15°C or prevent dormancy termination at 7°C. Secondary dormancy was terminated after 2 months stratification at 7°C. Oxygen deficiency may increase the proportion of dormant seeds in the soil, and affect the dynamics of the barnyard-grass soil seed bank.We thank Miss Jitka Králová for her excellent technical assistance.     

酶与有机溶剂

西秦岭南带中志留统的岩石学特征与沉积环境

详细研究了西秦岭南带中志留统岩石学特征,对遭受重结晶作用的碳酸盐岩进行了结构成因分类。分析了该区中志留世的沉积环境及变化特征。在该区发现的层孔虫生物礁及其它“浅水”标志,表明志留纪时,为若尔盖微古陆北侧的边缘浅海环境。西部为局限陆棚环境,可分为:局限内陆棚、海湾、礁滩-泻湖-潮坪(孤立台地)等亚环境;东部为开阔陆棚环境,可分为浅海砂滩、内陆棚、外陆棚等亚环境。     

A new semisynthetic ergot peptide alkaloid: DCN 203-922

Summary We report the synthesis, stereochemistry and preliminary pharmacological evaluation of DCN 203-922, a novel ergot alkaloid of the cyclol type, which contains in its peptide moiety the uncommon amino acid L-allo-isoleucine.Part of this paper was reported by this author at the Herbstversammlung der Schweizerischen Chemischen Gesellschaft, Bern, in October 1986.     

溶剂萃取法制备碳酸盐的热力学讨论

向金属氯化物(Ⅰ)的水溶液中通入CO_2气体,以期制备相应的碳酸盐和酸式碳酸盐,在常温常压下,体系的△G>0,反应几乎是不可能的。向反应体系中加入有机溶剂(S),使生成的HCl即被萃取,可促进Ⅰ的继续转化。分析计算表明,S对HCl必须有很强的萃取能力,其K_萃须在10~5以上。研究了加入有机溶剂N_(235)前后,体系的热力学状态、函数及其变化。加入N_(235)后,K_萃值增大了5个数量级。考察了温度、时间和通气次数对系统热力学性质的影响。根据反应的耦合原理和热力学分析,提出萃取剂选择的原则。结合实验数据的估算说明:溶剂萃取法由Ⅰ和CO_2制备碳酸盐的工艺路线是可行的。     

外源有机酸协同生物炭对土壤微量元素的影响

为未来改善生物炭和有机酸共存的土壤营养状况提供参考依据,有必要探究生物炭和有机酸共存对土壤中微量元素的影响。以玉米秸秆为原材料制备生物炭,采集不同深度的黄棕壤,选择柠檬酸和苹果酸这2种酸进行试验,除对照外共设置8个不同处理方式,分别是不施加或施加生物炭的表土加柠檬酸处理、不施加或施加生物炭的表土加苹果酸处理、不施加或施加生物炭的底土加柠檬酸处理和不施加或施加生物炭的底土加苹果酸处理。结果表明：（1）与对照组相比,施加2种有机酸增加了土壤中的铁和锰的溶出,且柠檬酸处理的土壤溶液中的铁和锰含量高于苹果酸处理;（2）由于底土和表土存在理化性质的差异,影响了铁和锰的溶出量,底土溶液锰的溶出量高达0.34 mmol/L,而表土溶液铁的溶出量高达0.7 mmol/L;3）2%的生物炭没有完全阻碍两种有机酸对微量元素的溶出。结论 有机酸可以活化土壤中的铁和锰,其活化效果与有机酸种类、浓度、金属、土壤酸碱度有关,且生物炭的施加对阻碍有机酸活化土壤中微量元素的能力有限。     

Non-host-selective fungal phytotoxins: Biochemical aspects of their mode of action

During the last decade increasing attention has been directed towards the biochemical mechanisms responsible for the biological activity of phytotoxins. Studies on the mode of action of some non-host-selective phytotoxins, some following on from previous observations, have demonstrated a very specific interaction with particular components of the cell machinery, and have suggested the possible use of these phytotoxins as tools for the investigation of important biochemical processes. This review article reports and discusses results of studies carried out in the 1980s with seven non-host-selective fungal toxins: brefeldin A, cercosporin,Cercospora beticola toxin, fusicoccin, ophiobolins, tentoxin, and zinniol. Each of these interferes with the life of the host by interacting with a different biochemical target.
