中国主要地方品种猪血液蛋白遗传多样性研究

实验采用水平板淀粉凝胶电泳技术,对中国地方猪五大类型9个品种、1个引入品种共201个个体进行了遗传多样性分析。共分析遗传座位30个,其中只有MDH、PEPB、AK、6PGD、ADA、PHI 6个座位具有多态性。中国主要地方猪品种的多态座位百分比P=0.200,平均杂合度H=0.065,平均等位基因数A=1.300。根据基因频率采用PHYLIP3.5c软件包计算Nei氏遗传距离,然后用“NEIGHBOR”程序分别构建NJ和UPGMA系统树。

浙江地方猪种遗传多样性研究

采用蛋白电泳和线粒体DNA RFLP分析方法,研究了浙江七个地方品种猪及浙江野猪的遗传多样性状况。从分析的30个遗传座位、99个地方品种个体中发现MDH,PEPB,6PGD,AK,ADA,PHI六个座位具有多态性,其中AK,MDH多态座位在家猪中首次发现。浙江地方猪种的亲缘关系很近。在mtDNA RFLP水平,25种限制性内切酶在27个地方品种个体及3个野猪个体中共检出30种限制性态型,可归结成三种单倍型。各单倍型间平均遗传距离(P)为0.005,群体平均多态度(#pi#))为0.000 8,处于遗传多样性贫乏范围。

Genetic diversity of Chinese native pigs inferred from protein electrophoresis

We examined protein polymorphism of 20 native pig breeds in China and 3 introduced pig breeds. Thirty loci have been investigated, among which six loci were found to be polymorphic. Especially, the polymorphism of malate dehydrogenase (MDH), adenylate kinase (AK), and two new alleles of adenosine deaminase (ADA) had not been reported in domestic pigs and wild pigs. The percentage of polymorphic loci (P), the mean heterozygosity (H), and the mean number of alleles (A) are 0.200, 0.065, and 1.300, respectively. The degree of genetic variability of Chinese pigs as a whole was higher than that of goats, lower than that of cattle and horses, and similar to that of sheep. Using the gene frequencies of the 30 loci, Nei's genetic distance among the 20 native breeds in China and 3 introduced pig breeds was calculated by the formula of Nei. The program NEIGHBOR in PHYLIP 3.5c was chosen to construct an UPGMA tree and a NJ tree. Our results show that, of the total genetic variation found in the native pig breeds in China, 31% (0.31) is ascribable to genetic differences among breeds. About 69% of the total genetic variation is found within breeds. Most breeds are in linkage disequilibrium. The patterns of genetic similarities between the Chinese native pig breeds were not in agreement with the proposed pig type classification.

In vitro anti-HIV and -HSV activity and safety of sodium rutin sulfate as a microbicide candidate

Sodium rutin sulfate (SRS) is a sulfated rutin modified from the natural flavonol glycoside rutin. Here, we investigated its in vitro anti-HIV and -HSV activities and its cytotoxic profile. Fifty percent inhibitory concentration (IC50) values of SRS against HIV-1 X4 virus IIIB, HIV-1 R5 isolates Ada-M and Ba-L were 2.3 +/- 0.2, 4.5 +/- 2.0 and 8.5 +/- 3.8 mu M with a selectivity index (SI) of 563, 575 and 329, respectively. Its IC50 against primary R5 HIV-1 isolate from Yunnan province in China was 13.1 +/- 5.5 mu M, with a Sl of 197. In contrast, unsulfated rutin had no activity against any of the HIV-1 isolates tested. Further study indicated that SRS blocked viral entry and virus-cell fusion likely through interacting with the HIV- I envelope glycoprotein. SRS also demonstrated some activity against human herpes simplex virus (HSV) with an IC50 of 88.3 +/- 0.1 mu M and a Sl of 30. The 50% cytotoxicity concentration (CC50) of SRS was >3.0 mM, as determined in human genital ME 180, HeLa and primary human foreskin fibroblast cells. Minimum inhibitory concentration of SRS for vaginal lactobacilli was >3.0 mM. These results collectively indicate that SRS represents a novel candidate for anti-HIV-1/HSV microbicide development.
