不同葡萄糖/果糖类型桃果实发育期间可溶性糖的变化规律和代谢

以成熟果实中不同葡萄糖/果糖（G/F）类型的6个桃品种（G/F≈1品种：‘冈山白’、‘山一白桃’和‘燕红’;高G/F品种：‘张黄7号’、‘龙246’和‘临白7号’）为试材，采用高效液相色谱法测定果实发育期果实和叶片中可溶性糖含量，并在盛花后74 d或101 d测定了‘冈山白’、‘山一白桃’、‘张黄 7号’和‘龙 246’新梢韧皮部中可溶性糖的含量;测定了果实发育过程中‘山一白桃’和‘临白7号’果实中的可溶性糖和淀粉代谢相关酶的活性。研究成熟果实中不同G/F类型桃果实内G/F差异的部位和时期;分析桃果实内G/F差异的可溶性糖代谢调控机理。 成熟果实中不同G/F类型桃果实中均以蔗糖作为主要碳水化合物积累形式，花后43–85 d蔗糖含量很低，随后持续快速积累直至果实成熟;花后43–85 d山梨醇有升高趋势，在果实成熟前40 d左右迅速降低;葡萄糖和果糖含量在果实发育早期较高，之后逐渐降低;但两类不同G/F桃在整个果实发育过程中G/F值与果实成熟时相似。叶片中贮藏的可溶性糖主要是蔗糖和山梨醇，在果实整个发育期间，G/F≈1品种叶片中G/F约1-3，而高G/F品种叶片中G/F约为2-7。G/F≈1品种‘冈山白’和‘山一白桃’与高G/F品种‘张黄 7号’和‘龙 246’韧皮部中山梨醇占总可溶性糖47-63％，显著高于蔗糖、葡萄糖和果糖的含量，G/F为0.8-0.91，且两类不同G/F桃品种间G/F值不存在显著差异。 成熟果实中G/F≈1类型的‘山一白桃’和高G/F值类型的‘临白7号’整个果实发育过程中，葡萄糖、山梨醇和淀粉的含量在这两个品种间一般没有明显差异;‘山一白桃’果实中的果糖含量显著高于‘临白7号’果实中的果糖;果实最后迅速生长期，‘山一白桃’果实中的蔗糖明显高于‘临白7号’。‘山一白桃’和‘临白7号’果实中的NAD+依赖型山梨醇脱氢酶（NAD+-SDH）活性低，两者有相似的变化趋势，一般无显著差异。‘临白7号’果实中的NADP+依赖型山梨醇脱氢酶（NADP+-SDH）和山梨醇氧化酶（SOX）活性一直高于‘山一白桃’，两者NADP+-SDH和SOX的活性分别在花后93-123 d和花后43-93 d有显著差异。‘临白7号’果实中的果糖激酶（FK）活性一般高于‘山一白桃’。花后43-93 d，‘临白7号’果实中的磷酸蔗糖合成酶（SPS）和蔗糖合成酶（SS）活性一般显著‘山一白桃’。果实最后迅速生长期，蔗糖快速积累，葡萄糖、果糖、山梨醇和淀粉含量迅速降低，同时伴随有SPS和SS活性的迅速升高。在整个果实发育过程中，两个品种果实中的淀粉酶活性较高，其果实中的淀粉含量和淀粉酶活性都有明显的下降趋势。 研究结果表明，整个果实发育过程中桃果实中均存在G/F≈1和高G/F现象，光合产物在韧皮部的运输对桃果实的G/F没有显著的影响，果实中G/F的差异主要由于果实内糖代谢差异所导致。‘临白7号’果实中山梨醇向果糖方向的转化能力与‘山一白桃’一般没有显著差异，由于不同时期较高的NADP+-SDH和SOX活性，使得山梨醇向葡萄糖方向的转化能力明显高于‘山一白桃’，同时，‘临白7号’果实中的FK活性一般高于‘山一白桃’，因此导致‘临白7号’果实中G/F高于‘山一白桃’。

莱州湾区域表层沉积物中多氯化萘、多溴联苯醚和氯化石蜡的研究

本研究建立了沉积物中氯化石蜡（CPs）的分析方法，对莱州湾和该区域主要河流的表层沉积物中多氯萘（PCNs），多溴联苯醚（PBDEs）和CPs进行了分析，获得了他们在研究区域的含量水平、空间分布和单体分布模式，并初步探讨了它们在环境中的来源和迁移规律，估算了这三类污染物在莱州湾表层沉积物中的储量，初步评估了莱州湾沿岸的工业排放与人类活动对海洋生态环境的影响。 莱州湾海洋和河流沉积物PCNs的含量分别为65-470 pg/g dw，52-5100 pg/g dw，平均值分别为260 pg/g dw，1100 pg/g dw。莱州湾沉积物中PCNs的含量较低，与发达国家的背景值相当，主要河流沉积物与其他地区的近海、海湾、湖泊沉积物的含量相当。该区域的PCNs主要以5-Cl和6-Cl为主，为工业来源，主要受化工行业的影响。石化工厂热过程产生的低氯组分可能也是该区域PCNs的一个重要来源。莱州湾的PCNs主要来自水体颗粒的输入，而大气沉降来源的贡献不明显。 河流沉积物ΣPBDEs（不包括BDE-209）的含量分别为0.01- 53 ng/g dw，BDE-209的含量为0.74- 280 ng/g dw，平均值分别为4.4 ng/g dw，51 ng/g dw。在组成上，BDE-209占绝对优势，比低溴代BDEs高1-2个数量级，这是由于我国市场上十溴联苯醚是最主要的溴代阻燃剂。ΣPBDEs与亚洲一些地区含量相当，比北美和欧洲一些地区要低；BDE-209含量含量高出北美和欧洲一些地区，处于较高的水平。河流沉积物中BDE-47与-99，BDE-183与-153、-154具有很好的相关性，而且这几种单体质量分数相当，说明莱州湾区域存在五溴和八溴两种工业BDE阻燃剂来源。海洋沉积物中ΣPBDEs的含量为nd- 0.66 ng/g dw，平均值为0.32 ng/g dw，处于较低水平，BDE-209的含量为0.66- 12 ng/g dw，平均值为5.1 ng/g dw，与欧美一些地区相当，主要来自水体颗粒的输入。 本研究用电子捕获低分辨质谱（ECNI-LRMS）建立了沉积物中CPs的分析方法。该方法基于ECNI质谱对SCCP的响应与其氯含量在一定范围内呈线性关系的特性，建立SCCP的总响应因子与氯含量的工作曲线，从而建立定量方法。重点改进了传统方法中由于SCCP标准品和样品中氯含量不同所造成的响应因子的差别，不再要求标准品的含氯量与样品一致，从而提高了SCCP的分析效率与方法准确性。实验发现，当SCCP的实际氯含量在51%-63%之间时，二者线性关系良好（r2>0.96）。用不同氯含量的标准参考品测试，误差为8%-43%。仪器检测限和方法检测限分别为25-400 μg/L，20 ng/g。类似地，建立了中链氯化石蜡（MCCP）的分析方法，工作曲线的实际氯含量范围为44-57%，仪器检测限40-600 μg/L，方法检测限为6 ng/g。通过对比样品与标准品的峰形特征，严格控制保留时间来辨别SCCP与MCCP，实验证明由于二者叠加导致的误差：SCCP为8%，MCCP为14%，总体来说，用该方法得到的CPs数据是可靠的。本文所使用的净化方法能实现CPs与大部分有机氯化合物的分离。 用该方法对莱州湾的沉积物的CPs进行定量，除了两个河流样品MCCP的计算含氯量低于工作曲线以外，其他样品的SCCP和MCCP的计算氯含量都在工作曲线的范围之内。河流沉积物中SCCP和MCCP的含量分别为1-1200 ng/g dw，1-3300 ng/g dw，MCCP/SCCP均值为1.2；含量分布变化较大，一些河段受到工业排放的影响，CPs浓度高出均值1-2个数量级，MCCP/SCCP值也显著高出平均值。莱州湾区域大部分河流的CPs含量与欧洲、北美和日本一些地区相当，而一些受到点源污染的河段则处于较高的水平。河流中SCCP的质量分布在不同的站位不一样，在受到点源影响的样品中，C13的质量分数明显增大，占优势地位，可能是由MCCP携带的SCCP组分所致。MCCP的质量分布在河流和海洋中没有区别，都是C14占绝对优势。从氯取代的组分来讲，所有样品都是以6-8氯取代为主。海洋沉积物中SCCP和MCCP的含量分别为3-18 ng/g dw，1-13 ng/g dw， MCCP/SCCP均值为0.68，显著低于河流沉积物；SCCP的质量分布较为一致，都是以C10和C11为主。研究发现莱州湾区域SCCP与MCCP来源相似，但迁移规律有的不同。海洋环境中的MCCP可能主要来自水体颗粒的输入，而溶解态输入也是海洋环境中SCCP的重要来源。 对这三类污染物在莱州湾表层沉积物中的储量估算得到PCNs、ΣPBDEs、BDE-209、SCCP和MCCP在莱州湾表层0-10 cm沉积物中的储量分别为0.20t，0.25t，3.95t，6.52t，4.30t。拥有10%的渤海海域面积的莱州湾ΣPBDEs和BDE-209的储量分别占渤海海区总量的18-23%，18-32%，远远超过渤海的平均值。

Heterorhabditidoides chongmingensis gen. nov., sp nov (Rhabditida : Rhabditidae), a novel member of the entomopathogenic nematodes

During a recent soil sample survey in Eastern China, a new entomopathogenic nematode species, collected from the Chongming Islands in the southern-eastern area of Shanghai, was discovered. Morphological characteristics of different developmental stages of the nematode combined with molecular data showed that this nematode is a new genus of Rhabditidae, and described as Heterorhabditidoides chongmingensis gen. nov., sp. nov., for that it shares more morphological characteristics with heterorhabditids than with ste-inernematids. For males, the papillae formula of bursa is 1, 2, 3, 3, with constant papillae number in the terminal group, stoma tubular-shaped and about 1.5 head width; cheilorhabdions cuticularized, esophageal collar present and long, median bulb present. For infective juveniles, EP = 90 (80-105) mu m, ES = 104 (92-120) mu m, tail length = 111 (89-159) mu m, and a = 19.1 (15-21). The percentages of the nucleotides A, T, C and G in the ITS1 regions of the new species are significantly different from those of heterorhabditids and other rhabditids. Molecular phylogenetic trees based on 18S rDNA and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequences data revealed that the new entomopathogenic nematode species forms a monophyletic group, which is a sister group of the clade comprised of some genera of Rhabditidae.

我国中药来源的抗HIV天然化合物研究进展

由于迄今仍无艾滋病(acquired immunodeficiency syndrome,AIDS)疫苗问世,抗人类免疫缺陷病毒(human immunodeficiency virus,HIV)药物仍然是艾滋病治疗的主要手段。传统中药和药用植物来源的天然化合物具有结构多样性、毒性较低、来源广泛等特点,因而在防治艾滋病方面有着独特的优势和巨大的潜力。研究者已经对天然化合物抗HIV作用进行了大量研究,并取得了可喜的成绩,发现了一些生物碱、香豆素、木脂素、黄酮类、萜类、鞣质类、多糖类、蛋白质和多肽类等天然化合物具有抗HIV的活性。然而,多数研究都是在体外试验完成的,大多数天然化合物体外抗HIV活性偏低,而且抗HIV的靶点仍不十分清楚。本文结合笔者实验室研究工作,重点介绍近年来我国传统中药来源的抗HIV活性较强的天然化合物研究进展。

Anti-HIV Activities of the Compounds Isolated from Polygonum cuspidatum and Polygonum multiflorum

The 70% EtOH extract of Polygonum cuspidatum showed inhibitory action against HIV-1-induced syncytium formation at non-cytotoxic concentrations in vitro with a 50% effective concentration (EC50) of 13.94 +/- 3.41 mu g/mL. Through bioactivity-guided fractionation, 20 phenolic compounds, including eight stilbenoids, were isolated from the roots of Polygonum cuspidatum, and their anti-HIV-1 activities were evaluated. Results showed that compounds 1, 13, 14, and 16 demonstrated fairly strong antiviral activity against HIV-1-induced cytopathic effects in C8166 lymphocytes at non-cytotoxic concentrations, with EC50 values of 4.37 +/- 1.96 mu g/mL, 19.97 +/- 5.09, 14.4 +/- 1.34 mu g/mL, and 11.29 +/- 6.26 mu g/mL and therapeutic index (TI) values of 8.12, > 10.02, > 13.89, and > 17.71, respectively. Other compounds showed either weak or no effects. Compound 6 also showed weak inhibition (153.42 +/- 19.25 mu g/mL); however, it possesses very good water solubility and showed almost no cytotoxicity (> 2000 mu g/mL), therefore achieving a fairly good TI (13.04). The activities of the two compounds (3 and 18) from Polygonum multiflorum were also assayed. The relationship between molecular structures and their bioactivities was also discussed.

Sleeping sites, sleeping trees, and sleep-related behaviors of black crested gibbons (Nomascus concolor jingdongensis) at Mt. Wuliang, central Yunnan, China

Data on sleep-related behaviors were collected for a group of central Yunnan black crested gibbons (Nomascus concolor jingdongensis) at Mt. Wuliang, Yunnan, China from March 2005 to April 2006. Members of the group usually formed four sleeping units (adult male and juvenile, adult female with one semi-dependent black infant, adult female with one dependent yellow infant, and subadult male) spread over different sleeping trees. Individuals or units preferred specific areas to sleep; all sleeping sites were situated in primary forest, mostly (77%) between 2,200 and 2,400 m in elevation. They tended to sleep in the tallest and thickest trees with large crowns on steep slopes and near important food patches. Factors influencing sleeping site selection were (1) tree characteristics, (2) accessibility, and (3) easy escape. Few sleeping trees were used repeatedly by the same or other members of the group. The gibbons entered the sleeping trees on average 128 min before sunset and left the sleeping trees on average 33 min after sunrise. The lag between the first and last individual entering the trees was on average 17.8 min. We suggest that sleep-related behaviors are primarily adaptations to minimize the risk of being detected by predators. Sleeping trees may be chosen to make approach and attack difficult for the predator, and to provide an easy escape route in the dark. In response to cold temperatures in a higher habitat, gibbons usually sit and huddle together during the night, and in the cold season they tend to sleep on ferns and/or orchids.
