Pattern analysis of stem cell differentiation during <Emphasis Type="Italic">in vitro Arabidopsis</Emphasis> organogenesis

Plant somatic cells have the capability to switch their cell fates from differentiated to undifferentiated status under proper culture conditions, which is designated as totipotency. As a result, plant cells can easily regenerate new tissues or organs from a wide variety of explants. However, the mechanism by which plant cells have such remarkable regeneration ability is still largely unknown. In this study, we used a set of meristem-specific marker genes to analyze the patterns of stem cell differentiation in the processes of somatic embryogenesis as well as shoot or root organogenesis in vitro. Our studies furnish preliminary and important information on the patterns of the de novo stem cell differentiation during various types of in vitro organogenesis.     

PET-CT在非完全实性肺结节中的应用价值

肺癌在中国恶性肿瘤的发病率位居第一,随着低剂量薄层CT在肺癌筛查中的广泛应用,临床发现更多表现为非完全实性结节的肺腺癌,目前众多研究使CT影像学特征和肺腺癌病理的关系得到更进一步的认知,虽然CT能对部分非完全实性结节做出定性和定位诊断,但仍有部分非完全实性结节诊断困难,PET-CT结合了病灶的代谢信息和精确的定位信息,从而提高对肺部结节诊断的敏感性、特异性、准确性,综合多个文献PET-CT在非完全实性结节中的诊断分期价值较CT无明显提升,却在评估预后和制定合适手术方案上可以起到一定的作用,本文就PET-CT在SSN中的应用价值进行阐述。     

Dissipative particle dynamics simulation of a gold nanoparticle system

Dissipative particle dynamics (DPD) was carried out to study systems containing gold atoms, organic ether (oligohydroquinonyl ether terminated with a thiol group) and organic solvents. The components in the simulated system are very different in size and chemical nature. Our simulation showed that the reproduction of the macroscopic experimental phase separation, properly dividing the polymeric molecule into beads, selecting the size of gold bead, and choosing the appropriate interaction parameters between beads are crucial. In addition, the solvent effect was the dominant factor for the formation of spherical aggregates of Au atoms and organic ether molecules. We report the interaction strengths between the solvent and gold clusters. Our work has demonstrated that DPD methods can be applied to the study of complex meso-scale systems.     

酸敏感离子通道与脑梗死

急性脑梗死约占全部脑卒中的70%,病死率和致残率高,且极易复发。但目前针对急性脑梗死在时间窗内溶栓、抗凝等治疗手段不能从根本上切实有效地修复受损脑组织,且伴有出血等风险。寻找脑梗死形成发展的原因并予以治疗迫在眉睫。酸中毒是引起缺血性脑损伤的重要机制。大量实验研究表明,酸中毒能加重神经元的缺血性损伤,且其梗死面积与酸中毒的程度直接相关。但缺血产生的酸中毒如何引起神经元损伤的确切机制尚不明确。最近研究发现酸中毒能激活一种在中枢及周围神经中广泛存在的膜通道,即酸敏感离子通道,它对Ca2+通透,能引起细胞内Ca2+超载,同时能激活胞内酶引起细胞内蛋白质、脂类及核酸的降解,加重缺血后脑损伤。本文就酸敏感离子通道1a与脑梗死做一综述。     

雄性水狼蛛生殖球顶部的扫描电镜研究

本文对我国已知的十一种水狼蛛(蜘蛛目:狼蛛科)生殖球顶部用扫描电镜进行了研究。结果表明,水狼蛛属蜘蛛插入器细长,其后端位于顶突上一突起的凹槽内,顶突作为功能引导器保护着插入器,而无其他狼蛛属具有的次生真正引导器;顶突的形状和其上的突起、顶突与插入器的相互关系对于种的分类与鉴定,特别是对于近似种的区分有较大的参考价值,但仅根据插入器从顶部升起的位置来作为分新属的主要标准,笔者认为还值得商榷和进一步探讨。     

草莓毛管蚜性外激素腺体的形态及组织观察

本文通过对草莓毛管蚜Chaetosiphon fragaefolii(Cockerell)性外激素腺体外部形态的扫描电镜观察,对腺体的外形、大小、位置、数目作了描述;通过对腺体组织不同发育时期的电镜观察,揭示了该虫性外激素腺体的形成期、释放性外激素期和衰老期等不同发育阶段的变化过程.
