Morphological,biochemical and molecular changes during ectomycorrhiza development

Summary An ectomycorrhiza, a specialized root organ, is the result of a complex interaction leading to a finely-tuned symbiosis between a plant and a compatible ectomycorrhizal fungus. Ultrastructural observations combined with cytochemical and biochemical studies reveal that structural and metabolic changes in the symbiont cells lead to the final phenotype of the active ectomycorrhiza. In the present review these changes are interpreted as changes in gene expression and discussed within the context of ectomycorrhiza development. Recent genetic data indicate that the continued vegetative growth of the ectomycorrhizal hyphae and the root tissues, and their ability to switch to symbiotic organ formation, is basically controlled by developmentally critical genes. The activity of these symbiotic genes during the differentiation of ectomycorrhizas is associated with extensive changes in the concentration of particular polypeptides and protein biosynthesis. The present state of knowledge about the developmental biology of ectomycorrhizas allows only speculation about the events during their development.Puisant mes forces aux sources des galaxies En buvant la sève des arbres M.

Maternal vitamin A restriction alters biochemical development of the brain in rats

Summary The biochemical development of the fetal brain in relation to maternal vitamin A restriction was studied in rats. The vitamin A status of pregnant rats was varied by supplying low, medium and adequate amounts (6, 40, and 100 g retinol/day/kg body weight, respectively) of vitamin A during pregnancy and suckling. The maternal vitamin A restriction caused an altered brain development in terms of tissue weight, DNA, RNA and protein levels, and biosynthesis of DNA and protein from [³H]-thymidine and [³H]-leucine, respectively. A dose-dependent effect of maternal vitamin A restriction on the metabolism of DNA, RNA and protein was noticed in the developing fetal brain of rats.     

孕激素相关子宫内膜蛋白在胃癌早期诊断、预后中的作用

为使用生物信息学系统分析孕激素相关子宫内膜蛋白(Progestagen-associated endometrial protein, PAEP)在胃癌中的早期诊断和预后预测性能及免疫浸润相关性,该研究构建预测模型ROC曲线和偏差校正曲线检验其性能准确性,并通过细胞实验进一步验证分析结果.生信分析结果显示,与正常组织相比,胃癌组织中PAEP的表达较高,在早期（T1期、N0期、M0期）即有统计学意义（P＜0.001）,且诊断胃癌的准确性较高（ROC曲线下面积为0.889）;PAEP高表达的胃癌患者预后较差（P≤0.001）;TNM分期越晚,年龄越大,PAEP表达越高,胃癌患者生存概率越低,偏差校正曲线接近理想曲线（45°线）,显示预测结果良好;PAEP的表达与胃癌中的中性粒细胞、巨噬细胞的浸润水平呈正相关趋势,与B细胞、中央记忆型T细胞、T细胞呈显著的负相关趋势.qRT-PCR和Western blot结果显示,HGC-27、BGC-823、MKN-45、SGC-7901和AGS细胞中PAEP基因转录水平和蛋白表达水平均显著高于GES-1. 结果表明了PAEP 蛋白可用于胃癌诊断和预后的生物标志物,并进行了实验验证,其机制与免疫有关.

Cloning and expression of the vp39 gene ofBombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus inE. coli

The nuclear capsid protein gene (vp39) ofBombyx mori nuclear polyhedrosis virus (BmNPV) was amplified successfully by PCR technique and inserted into pGEM 3zf(+). The 5′ and 3′ terminal area of the amplified vp39 gene were sequenced with silver-staining dideoxy method. Bmvp39 gene was sub-cloned into the expression vector pRSET-A, and transformed intoE. coli BL21. This gene was highly expressed by IPTG induction. SDS-PAGE analysis showed that the expressed protein is about 38 kd, and the expressed amount reached maxium in 4 h with IPTG induction.
