柱状黄杆菌(Flavobacterium columnare)是一种世界范围的水产动物致病菌,是中国重要养殖鱼类草鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idellus)、鳜(Siniperca chuatsi)等烂鳃病的病原。本研究以1972年从患"烂鳃病"草鱼上分离的两株冻干柱状黄杆菌G4和G18菌株为研究对象,并将G4株再次分离纯化得纯化菌株,命名为G4R3。对草鱼鱼苗浸泡攻毒结果显示,G4R3的LD50至少比G18的高3个数量级,因此G4R3为"强毒株",G18为"弱毒株"。利用蛋白质组学方法分析柱

Hepatic Histopathological Characteristics and Antioxidant Response of Phytoplanktivorous Silver Carp Intraperitoneally Injected with Extracted Microcystins

Objective To investigate the hispathological characteristics and antioxidant responses in liver of silver carp after intraperitoneal administration of microcystins (MCs) for further understanding hepatic intoxication and antioxidation mechanism in fish. Methods Phytoplanktivorous silver carp was injected intraperitoneally (i.p.) with extracted hepatotoxic microcystins (mainly MC-RR and -LR) at a dose of 1000 mu g MC-LReq./kg body weight, and liver histopathological changes and antioxidant responses were studied at 1, 3, 12, 24, and 48 h, respectively, after injection. Results The damage to liver structure and the activities of hepatic antioxidant enzymes including catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), and glutathione peroxide (GPX) were increased in a time-dependent manner. Conclusion In terms of clinical and histological signs of intoxication and LD50 (i.p.) dose of MC-LR, silver carp appears rather resistant to MCs exposure than other fishes. Also, the significantly increased SOD activity in the liver of silver carp suggests a higher degree of response to MCs exposure than CAT and GPX.

Investigation on intake, accumulation and toxicity of microcystins to silver carp

Daily intake and accumulation of microcystins (MCYSTs, MCs) in silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix) were investigated under lab conditions by feeding the fish exclusively with fresh toxic Microcystis bloom at a density of 6 x 10(9) algal cells L-1. The medial lethal dose (LD50) of microcystin-LR to silver carp was estimated to be 270 mu g kg(-1) body-weight, underlining its strong resistance to toxic Microcystis bloom. It can survive after being ingested with high doses of microcystins (about 10 mg kg(-1)) during the 28-days feeding experiment. Enzyme-linked immuno-sorbent assay results show that microcystin concentrations in muscle and liver are 1.57 +/- 0.31 mu g kg(-1) and 4.28 +/- 1.64 mg kg(-1) fresh weight. The former is much lower than the World Health Organization limit recommended for human consumption. These results suggest that silver carps can be widely used in cyanobacterial bloom control, and consumption of fish muscles is safe for human beings.

CYCLIC PEPTIDE HEPATOTOXINS FROM FRESH-WATER CYANOBACTERIAL (BLUE-GREEN-ALGAE) WATERBLOOMS COLLECTED IN CENTRAL CHINA

Toxic cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) waterblooms have been found in several Chinese water bodies since studies began there in 1984. Waterbloom samples for this study contained Anabaena circinalis, Microcystis aeruginosa and Oscillatoria sp. Only those waterblooms dominated by Microcystis aeruginosa were toxic by the intraperitoneal (i.p.) mouse bioassay. Signs of poisoning were the same as with known hepatotoxic cyclic peptide microcystins. One toxic fraction was isolated from each Microcystis aeruginosa sample. Two hepatotoxic peptides were purified from each of the fractions by high-performance liquid chromatography and identified by amino acid analysis followed by low and high resolution fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry (FAB-MS). LD50 i.p. mouse values for the two toxins were 245-mu-g/kg (Toxin A) and 53-mu-g/g (Toxin B). Toxin content in the cells was 0.03 to 3.95 mg/g (Toxin A) and 0.18 to 3.33 mg/kg (Toxin B). The amino acid composition of Toxin A was alanine [1], arginine [2], glutamic acid [1] and beta-methylaspartic acid [1]; for Toxin B it was the same, except one of the arginines was replaced with a leucine. Low- and high-resolution FAB-MS showed that the molecular weights were 1,037 m/z (Toxin A) and 994 m/z (Toxin B), with formulas of C49H76O12N13 (Toxin A) and C49H75O12N10 (Toxin B). It was concluded that Toxin A is microcystin-RR and Toxin B is microcystin-LR, both known cyclic heptapeptide hepatotoxins isolated from cyanobacteria in other parts of the world. Sodium borohydride reduction of microcystin-RR yielded dihydro-microcystin-RR (m/z = 1,039), an important intermediate in the preparation of tritium-labeled toxin for metabolism and fate studies.

雨蛙皮肤分泌液中两种活性蛋白结构和功能的研究

在本研究中我们首次从雨蛙皮肤分泌液中分离得到了一种神经毒素（命名为Anntoxin）和一种干细胞自我更新支持因子（命名为AnSF）。随后，我们通过构建雨蛙皮肤cDNA 文库，利用特异引物筛选到Anntoxin 和AnSF 的cDNA 编码序列，前者的Gene Bank 登录号为FJ598043，后者还在等待分配登录号。Anntoxin 具有60 个氨基酸，是一种Kunitz 类型的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，构建Anntoxin 的3D-NMR 溶液结构，证实Anntoxin 不同于有三对二硫键（键组合模式：1-6，2-4，3-5）的Kunitz 类型丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，它只有两对二硫键（组合模式：1-4，2-3）。AnSF 具有123 个氨基酸，在C 端具有和Calmadolin 同源的两个EF 手指结构，能够支持人类胚胎干细胞（hESC）和猴神经干细胞（rNSC）的自我更新。为了进行Anntoxin 的生物活性和结构分析，我们在体外成功表达了 Anntoxin，获得了大量的重组Anntoxin（rAnntoxin）。经过生物活性分析， rAnntoxin 和天然分离到的Anntoxin 生物活性相当，都具有很强的胰蛋白酶抑制剂活性。Anntoxin 是一种Kunitz 类型的丝氨酸蛋白酶抑制剂，和来源于芋螺（Cone Snail）的神经毒素Conkunitzin-S1，黑色眼镜蛇毒液（black cobra, Dendroaspis polylepis polylepis）的树突毒素δ-DaTX 或蛋白酶抑制剂K 分别具有32.8%和36.7%的相同序列，和鱼类（fish）来源的Stonustoxin 也有一定的同源性。利用膜片钳技术分别检测Anntoxin 对大鼠背根神经节（rat DRG）上Na+通道，K+通道，Ca2+通道的作用，结果证明Anntoxin 对河豚毒素敏感（TTX-S）的钠离子通道（Nav）有较强的抑制活性，对 K+通道，Ca2+通道作用不明显。随后我们在非洲爪蟾卵母细胞上表达几种典型和常用于测试对亚型K+通道作用的Kv1.1，Kv1.2，Kv1.3，Kv2.1 和 Kv4.2，Kv4.3，Anntoxin 对这些亚型K+通道上的K+电流都没有明显影响。我们成功构建了Anntoxin 的3D-NMR 溶液结构（NMR 号：PDB ID 2KCR， BMRB ID 16094），证实Anntoxin 具有典型的Kunitz 结构，由反向平行的 β–折叠片和α–螺旋及转角组成梨形结构。利用RT-PCR，WesternBlot 以及 ELISA 技术，发现在皮肤、脑、肝、胃和肠中都能检测Anntoxin mRNA 转录，但只在皮肤、脑、肝和胃中有蛋白表达，表达量分别为29.5、5.39、 4.80 和2.02 微克/克鲜重，可以看出Anntoxin 在皮肤中大量表达，是皮肤分泌液中非常重要的组成部分。因为皮肤是雨蛙接触外界的第一屏障，雨蛙的生存环境中存在很多潜在威胁，比如微生物、吸血昆虫、鸟类、爬行动物、哺乳动物等，所以Anntoxin 有可能是雨蛙适应环境的重要化学武器，于是我们测试了Anntoxin 对甜菜夜蛾幼虫（Laphygma exigua Hubner）、水蛇（Enhydris plumbea）、鹌鹑（Coturnix coturnix）、昆明小鼠（Kunming mice）的急性毒性，其LD50 分别为50，450，2500 和3000 微克/千克体重，说明在华西雨蛙皮肤中大量表达的Anntoxin 对几类潜在天敌确实有较强的杀灭作用。为了检测AnSF 的生物学活性，我们在体外成功表达了AnSF，获得了大量rAnSF。设计三个浓度梯度10、100 和500ng/ml，把AnSF 和hESC 共培养，发现在10~100 ng/ml 浓度时对hESC 的自我更新有支持作用；设计三个浓度梯度10、100 和500ng/ml，把AnSF 和rNSC 共培养，发现在 10ng/ml 时对rNSC 的自我更新有较强的支持作用。在超过500ng/ml 高浓度时，AnSF 对hESC 和rNSC 都有明显的细胞毒性作用，对rNSC 的毒性作用更明显。利用RT-PCR 技术，我们检测了雨蛙的皮肤、肌肉、肝脏、胰脏、胃、肠、心脏和脑，AnSF 只在皮肤中有少量表达。这表明AnSF 可能只参与雨蛙皮肤干细胞库的维持，保持皮肤内环境稳定，因为蛙类的皮肤细胞要负责产生大量活性物质参与先天免疫和抗氧化等重要的生理活动，需要经常更新，而AnSF 的存在可能保证雨蛙皮肤干细胞库容量稳定，不断分化出各种成熟的皮肤细胞来使皮肤能够得到足够和及时的更新，保证其功能的正常行使。所以AnSF 是维持华西雨蛙皮肤内环境稳定的重要物质。

文冠果壳苷提取工艺的研究

文冠果为我国独有的油料树种，研究发现，文冠果壳乙醇提取物具有良好的促智作用，文冠果壳苷（Xanthoceracide）为齐墩果烷型五环三萜皂苷，是文冠果壳乙醇提取物中活性最强的物质。大量的药效学实验证明其具有显著改善多种记忆障碍模型小鼠的学习能力，提高大脑的缺氧耐受能力，预防并治疗多发性栓塞引起的记忆保持障碍，降低谷氨酸造成的PC12细胞死亡数量，增强对神经细胞的保护作用；数例临床试验中，一些记忆力严重减退导致生活不能自理的老年人以及智力低下的儿童服用文冠果壳提取物或文冠果壳苷后，也有明显的康复效果或治疗效果；而急性毒性试验进一步证实，这些天然产物毒性低，仅仅1/50的LD50用量就能表现出明显的改善记忆障碍作用，这预示着文冠果壳乙醇提取物将有可能开发成有效的老年痴呆症特效药。 本研究采用薄层层析法（TLC）对文冠果壳提取物中的文冠果壳苷进行定性鉴别。显色剂为10%硫酸乙醇，操作方法简便，斑点清晰，Rf适中，重现性良好。采用分光光度法对文冠果壳总皂苷含量进行测定。用文冠果壳苷作为对照品，测定波长为546 nm，文冠果壳苷含量在0.004 mg·mL-1~0.02 mg·mL-1（r=0.9998）呈现良好的线性关系，方法检验合格。采用高效液相色谱法（HPLC）对文冠果壳苷进行含量测定，文冠果壳苷含量在0.02 mg·mL-1~0.2 mg·mL-1（r=0.9992）范围内线性关系良好，方法检验合格。 采用溶剂提取法，大孔吸附树脂分离，有机溶剂萃取，硅胶柱层析分离，结晶与重结晶等方法相结合，得到纯度达98.5%的文冠果壳苷，可作标准品为开发利用文冠果壳提供依据。 以出膏率和文冠果壳苷含量为考察指标，分别考察提取次数、提取温度、乙醇浓度、料液比以及提取时间等因素对提取效果的影响。采用正交试验优化文冠果壳苷的溶剂提取工艺，最终确定提取工艺为：用70%乙醇提取，料液比为1/7（W／V），提取时间为5 h，提取温度为60 ℃，提取次数为2次。采用中试放大试验验证该工艺条件，结果表明，该提取工艺简单，易操作，提取效果较好，具有较好的应用前景。

Investigation of EscA as a chaperone for the Edwardsiella tarda type III secretion system putative translocon component EseC

Edwardsiella tarda is an important Gram-negative enteric pathogen affecting both animals and humans. It possesses a type III secretion system (T3SS) essential for pathogenesis. EseB, EseC and EseD have been shown to form a translocon complex after secretion, while EscC functions as a T3SS chaperone for EseB and EseD. In this paper we identify EscA, a protein required for accumulation and proper secretion of another translocon component, EseC. The escA gene is located upstream of eseC and the EscA protein has the characteristics of T3SS chaperones. Cell fractionation experiments indicated that EscA is located in the cytoplasm and on the cytoplasmic membrane. Mutation with in-frame deletion of escA greatly decreased the secretion of EseC, while complementation of escA restored the wild-type secretion phenotype. The stabilization and accumulation of EseC in the cytoplasm were also affected in the absence of EscA. Mutation of escA did not affect the transcription of eseC but reduced the accumulation level of EseC as measured by using an EseC-LacZ fusion protein in Ed. tarda. Co-purification and co-immunoprecipitation studies demonstrated a specific interaction between EscA and EseC. Further analysis showed that residues 31-137 of EseC are required for EseC-EscA interaction, Mutation of EseC residues 31-137 reduced the secretion and accumulation of EseC in Ed. tarda. Finally, infection experiments showed that mutations of EscA and residues 31-137 of EseC increased the LD50 by approximately 10-fold in blue gourami fish. These results indicated that EscA functions as a specific chaperone for EseC and contributes to the virulence of Ed. tarda.

Screening of genes expressed in vivo after infection by Vibrio anguillarum M3

Aims: Genes uniquely expressed in vivo may contribute to the overall pathogenicity of an organism and are likely to serve as potential targets for the development of new vaccine. This study aims to screen the genes expressed in vivo after Vibrio anguillarum infection by in vivo-induced antigen technology (IVIAT). Methods and Results: The convalescent-phase sera were obtained from turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) survived after infection by the virulent V. anguillarum M3. The pooled sera were thoroughly adsorbed with M3 cells and Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3) cells. A genomic expression library of M3 was constructed and screened for the identification of immunogenic proteins by colony immunoblot analysis with the adsorbed sera. After three rounds of screening, 19 putative in vivo-induced (ivi) genes were obtained. These ivi genes were catalogued into four functional groups: regulator/signalling, metabolism, biological process and hypothetical proteins. Three ivi genes were insertion-mutated, and the growth and 50% lethal dose (LD50) of these mutants were evaluated. Conclusions: The identification of ivi genes in V. anguillarum M3 sheds light on understanding the bacterial pathogenesis and provides novel targets for the development of new vaccines and diagnostic reagents. Significance and Impact of the Study: To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report describing in vivo-expressed genes of V. anguillarum using IVIAT. The screened ivi genes in this study could be new virulent factors and targets for the development of vaccine, which may have implications for the development of diagnostic regents.

鳗弧菌rpoS功能的研究

rpoS 基因编码RpoS因子（RNA聚合酶的σ亚基），能增强细菌细胞对外界不良环境的抗逆性和适应能力。我们从鳗弧菌（Vibrio anguillarum）M3 Fosmid 文库中得到rpoS 基因序列，全长999bp，同源分析发现与大肠杆菌（Escherichia coli）有71%的相似性，与霍乱弧菌（Vibrio cholerae ）有78%的相似性。为了研究rpoS在鳗弧菌中的作用，我们利用in-frame deletion技术构建了rpoS 基因的非极性缺失突变株，同时利用细菌的接合转移，以低拷贝克隆质粒pSUP202为载体，构建了突变株的互补株。 在TSB培养基中，rpoS 基因的缺失减缓了鳗弧菌对数期的生长，但是对稳定期的生长没有影响。对数期鳗弧菌在1M蔗糖（渗透压胁迫）和5%（v/v）乙醇中的生长减缓，而在18%(v/v)乙醇中的生长及42℃热击时的存活率相对于野生型没有变化。不同生长时期的鳗弧菌对15mM H2O2的反应有所不同，rpoS 的缺失使对数期的鳗弧菌对15mM H2O2的反应更加敏感。在rpoS基因互补株中，上述表型几乎恢复到野生型水平。 我们通过感染实验发现，rpoS 基因的缺失使鳗弧菌的LD50提高了20倍。 RpoS的突变对鳗弧菌的泳动和胞外酶的产生也有影响。突变株泳动圈直径是野生型的73.8%，在明胶平板和酪蛋白平板上的透明圈直径分别为野生型的61%和69%。通过azocaseion检测胞外产物ECP酶活发现，突变株的酶活是野生型的35.5%。 以上数据表明了RpoS在鳗弧菌对数期应对外界不良环境时起到了重要作用，同时参与了鳗弧菌的致病过程。

孔石莼多糖及其衍生物的研究

在中国，孔石莼应用于医药方面已有几千年的历史，其煎剂常被当地居民用来治疗中暑和泌尿方面的疾病。实验室以前所做的工作表明，孔石莼的水溶多糖具有很好的抗高血脂活性，本论文在此研究的基础上主要就多糖的长期毒性、一般药理、多糖的衍生化、不同分子量孔石莼多糖的抗氧化活性、衍生物的抗氧化活性和动物调血脂活性进行了研究。 水提醇沉制备多糖，多糖主要由糖醛酸、鼠李糖、木糖、葡萄糖和硫酸根组成，还含有微量的半乳糖、甘露糖和阿拉伯糖。多糖中主要的二糖重复单位为[β-D-Glcp A-(1->4)- α-L-Rhap 3S] 和 [α-L-Idop A-(1->4)- α-L-Rhap 3S]。急性毒性实验表明，KM小鼠对孔石莼多糖的最大耐受量(MTD)大于4000 mg/kg，其腹腔注射雌性小鼠的半致死量(LD50)为408.7 mg/kg，雄性动物为432.7 mg/kg。长期毒性（6个月）实验表明孔石莼多糖无毒反应剂量为1.2 g/kg。一般药理研究表明孔石莼多糖对小鼠中枢神经系统无明显影响，对麻醉犬心血管系统和呼吸系统均无明显影响。 采用过氧化氢降解的方法制备了不同分子量的孔石莼多糖，并且测定了体外抗氧化活性；制备了高硫酸根含量的孔石莼多糖、乙酰化和苯甲酰化孔石莼多糖衍生物，测定了体外抗氧化活性和动物调血脂试验。结果表明，不同分子量的孔石莼多糖其抗氧化活性是不同的，分子量低的孔石莼多糖表现出了较强的抗氧化活性。孔石莼多糖的衍生物其抗氧化活性要优于孔石莼多糖。调血脂动物试验表明，孔石莼多糖以及其衍生物都具有很好的调血脂效果。高硫酸根含量孔石莼多糖的中、低剂量组的调血脂活性要优于高剂量组（低剂量组降低低密度脂蛋白的能力要稍弱于原料），而且，中剂量组与原料组相比，小鼠血清TG明显降低（P＜0.05），LDL－C 明显降低（P＜0.01）。低剂量组乙酰化衍生物降低甘油三酯（TG）和低密度脂蛋白（LDL－C）的能力要优于中高剂量组。对于孔石莼多糖以及衍生物调血脂的机制还需进一步的研究。

迟缓爱德华氏菌基因组fosmid文库的构建、opp基因簇的克隆及aroA基因缺失突变株的构建

本研究构建了迟缓爱德华氏菌(Edwardsiella tarda)LSE40 基因组fosmid文库，该文库共包含2 500个克隆，插入片段平均大小为33.6kb，文库总容量约84Mb，覆盖E.tarda LSE40基因组（按5Mb计算）超过16倍。随机挑取1 000个fosmid克隆进行双末端测序共得到1 741条高质量的序列，序列平均长度546 bp，全长949 997bp，约为E.tarda基因组的19％。将这些序列提交到KEGG自动注释服务器KAAS对所得序列进行代谢途径分析，得到E.tarda LSE40的KO (KEGG Orthology) 注释。分析结果表明，与代谢途径相关的基因有932条序列，与环境信息处理相关基因283条，与遗传信息处理相关基因220条，与细胞进程和人类疾病相关的基因分别为64条和16条。同时将序列进行BlastX，按照微生物致病性共同主题找到61个毒力相关基因。Fosmid文库的建立和部分基因组序列的生物信息学分析为进一步研究E.tarda LSE40的致病机制、代谢机制和生理生态机制提供了丰富的物质基础。 通过比较基因组的方法，从E.tarda LSE40 fosmid文库克隆到编码寡肽透过酶的opp基因簇，该基因簇全长6 741bp，含有5个ORF，依次编码OppA-B-C-D-F 5个蛋白；位于oppA和oppB的间隔区和oppF之后的非编码区各有一个茎环结构，推测分别为oppA和opp基因簇的转录终止子。以细菌OppA的保守结构域SBP_bac_5构建系统发生树，结果显示E.tarda LSE40与同属细菌E.ictaluri的亲缘关系最近，与肠杆菌科细菌的亲缘关系较近，与革兰氏阳性细菌的亲缘关系较远，表明OppA的SBP_bac_5结构域可作为细菌分类鉴定的依据。 从E.tarda LSE40 fosmid文库克隆aroA基因全序列，该序列全长1 287bp，编码428个氨基酸，与鲶鱼爱德华氏菌(E. ictaluri)氨基酸相似性在94%，与其他肠杆菌科菌如Escherichia coli和Yersinia enterocolitica相似性在73%-74%。通过In-frame deletion构建了E.tarda LSE40 aroA缺失突变株。与野生型相比，aroA突变株的半数致死量LD50提高了62倍。在牙鲆接种~106cfu/ml的E.tarda细菌时，接种野生型细菌的牙鲆在6天内全部死亡，濒死鱼的细菌数达7.97×108cfu/ 100mg；而接种aroA突变株的牙鲆没有出现死亡，28天后检测不到细菌的存在。实验结果为进一步评价aroA突变株作为减毒活疫苗打下了基础。
