The meiotic chromosome configuration of 3 tetraploid and 1 tetraploid/triploid mosaic males were analyzed through direct chromosome observation. A majority of metaphase I spermato- cytes contained both bivalents and quadrivalents. The chromosome configuration of these males was characterized by preferential formation of bivalents to quadrivalents. Bivalents appeared in all spermatocytes and consisted of 86% of all chromosome aggregates. In comparison, quadrivalents occurred in 91% spermatocytes and consisted of only 12.6% of all chromosome aggregates. The mean bivalent frequency per spermatocyte varied between 14.4 and 17.2; while that of quadrivalents varied between 2.2 and 2.7. Most quadrivalents were tandemly chained (58%) or circled (39%). The total number of chromosome aggregates per spermatocyte ranged from 13 to 20 with an average of 17.6; while 18 (16 bivalents and 2 quadrivalents) was the most frequent. Univalents and trivalents appeared in very low frequency. Aneuploid (hypotetraploid) spermatocytes were observed in a low frequency. The chromosome con- figuration of in the mosaic individual was similar to that of tetraploid individuals. The percentage of triploid spermatocytes (2%) of the mosaic individual was significantly lower (2"2 =30, P〈 0.01) than that of triploid cells (46%) in its somatic tissue.展开更多

In vitro exposure of leukemic lymphocytes with P2Z receptors to 1 mmol/L ATP or 0 1 mmol/L benzoylbenzoic ATP(BzATP) for 8 h in the presence of choline, 1 mmol/L Mg 2+ or other bivalent cations, and ATP induced DNA breaks, associated with apoptosis were quantified by TdT assay. We observed that (1) Extracellular Mg 2+ or Ca 2+ stimulated ATP induced DNA fragmentation in a dose dependent manner, and the compatible evidence was provided by the inhibition of ATP induced DNA fragmentation in the present of EGTA or EDTA; (2) ATP induced DNA fragmentation was completely inhibited by 1 mmol/L Zn 2+ ;(3)ATP induced DNA breaks were not affected by Ba 2+ , Sr 2+ , Co 2+ when they were substituted for extracellular Mg 2+ or Ca 2+ ;(4)Choline, an inhibitor of phospholipase D(PLD) stimulated by ATP through P2Z receptor in human lymphocytes, was also a partial inhibitor of ATP induced DNA fragmentation, and the results were confirmed by flow cytometric analysis (FCA); (5)ATP induced DNA fragmentation was completely obliterated when the temperature was lower than 10℃. These results suggest that the endonuclease and PLD may be involved in ATP induced apoptosis in human lymphocytes via P2Z receptor.展开更多

Vaccination, combined with strict biosecurity practices, has been the recommendation for controlling these diseases in the field. In the present study, we generated NDV LaSota vaccine strain-based recombinant viruses expressing the glycoprotein (G) of aMPV, subtype A or B, using reverse genetics technology. These recombinant viruses, rLS/aMPV-A G and rLS/aMPV-B G, were characterized in cell cultures and evaluated in turkeys as bivalent, next-generation vaccines. The results showed that these recombinant vaccine candi-dates were slightly attenuated in vivo, yet maintained similar growth dynamics, cytopathic effects, and virus titers in vitro when compared to the parental LaSota virus. The expression of the aMPV G protein in recombinant virus-infected cells was detected by immunofluorescence. Vaccination of turkeys with rLS/aMPV-A G or rLS/aMPV-B G conferred complete protection against velogenic NDV, CA02 strain challenge and partial protection against homologous patho-genic aMPV challenge. These results suggest that the LaSota recombinant virus is a safe and effective vaccine vector and expression of the G protein alone is not sufficient to provide full protection against aMPV-A or -B infections. Ex-pression of other aMPV-A or -B virus immunogenic protein(s) individually or in conjunction with the G protein may be necessary to induce stronger and more protective immunity against aMPV diseases.展开更多

Others results were obtained by infrared to complete the study. The results of this research showed, in the physisorption region (213 - 473 K), that the cationic exchanges on NaX zeolite with bivalent cations increase slightly the interactions of CO<sub>2</sub> molecule with adsorbents and/or cationic site. Indeed, the desorption energies of physisorbed CO<sub>2</sub> obtained on the reference zeolite NaX (13.5 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>) are lower than that of exchanged zeolites E-CaX and E-BaX (15.77 and 15.17 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup> respectively). In the chemisorbed CO<sub>2</sub> region (573 - 873 K), the desorption energies related to desorbed species (bidentate carbonates: CO<sub>3</sub>2-</sup>) on the exchanged zeolites E-CaX and E-BaX are about 81 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>, higher than the desorbed species (bicarbonates: HCO<sub>3</sub>2-</sup>) on the reference R-NaX (62 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>). In addition, the exchanged E-BaX zeolite develops the secondary adsorption sites corresponding to bicarbonates species with desorption energies of 35 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup> lower to desorption energies of bicarbonates noted on the reference zeolite NaX.展开更多

Vaccination of turkeys with rLS/aMPV-A G or rLS/aMPV-B G conferred complete protection against velogenic NDV, CA02 strain challenge and partial protection against homologous patho-genic aMPV challenge. These results suggest that the LaSota recombinant virus is a safe and effective vaccine vector and expression of the G protein alone is not sufficient to provide full protection against aMPV-A or -B infections. Ex-pression of other aMPV-A or -B virus immunogenic protein(s) individually or in conjunction with the G protein may be necessary to induce stronger and more protective immunity against aMPV diseases.

文摘The relations between catalytic activities and compositions of the systems Mg_xZn_(1-x)Fe_2O_4, Co_xZn_(1-x)Fe_2O_4, Co_xMg_(1-x)Fe_2O_4, Cd_xZn_(1-x)Fe_2O_4 and Mg_xZn_(1-x)Fe_2O_4·0.17Fe_2O_3 have been studied by flow differential reactor, XRD, and derivative IR techniques. It has been found that the appropriate normal-inverse spinel combination substantially increases the activity for the title raction. The structure of the active site and the role of the bivalent cation in the title catalyst have been inferred.
文摘Study of physisorbed and chemisorbed carbon dioxide (CO<sub>2</sub>) species was carried out on the NaX zeolite modified by cationic exchanges with bivalent cations (Ca<sup>2+</sup> and Ba<sup>2+</sup>) by temperature-programmed desorption of CO<sub>2</sub> (CO<sub>2</sub>-TPD). Others results were obtained by infrared to complete the study. The results of this research showed, in the physisorption region (213 - 473 K), that the cationic exchanges on NaX zeolite with bivalent cations increase slightly the interactions of CO<sub>2</sub> molecule with adsorbents and/or cationic site. Indeed, the desorption energies of physisorbed CO<sub>2</sub> obtained on the reference zeolite NaX (13.5 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>) are lower than that of exchanged zeolites E-CaX and E-BaX (15.77 and 15.17 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup> respectively). In the chemisorbed CO<sub>2</sub> region (573 - 873 K), the desorption energies related to desorbed species (bidentate carbonates: CO<sub>3</sub>2-</sup>) on the exchanged zeolites E-CaX and E-BaX are about 81 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>, higher than the desorbed species (bicarbonates: HCO<sub>3</sub>2-</sup>) on the reference R-NaX (62 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup>). In addition, the exchanged E-BaX zeolite develops the secondary adsorption sites corresponding to bicarbonates species with desorption energies of 35 kJ·mol<sup>-1</sup> lower to desorption energies of bicarbonates noted on the reference zeolite NaX.
文摘Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of Hemorrhagic Fever with Renal Syndrome(HFRS) bivalent vaccine in field.Methods The articles on effectiveness of HFRS bivalent vaccine were retrieved from Vip Database,China Journal Full-text Database,Wanfang database,China Hospital Knowledge Database,Chinese Biomedical Literature Database,MEDLINE and ProQuest.Two persons extracted data and evaluated the quality of data together for meta-analysis.Results Seven articles were included into the analysis,and two articles were random clinical trials,five were quasi-trials.Meta-analysis showed that the overall effectiveness of HFRS bivalent vaccine was 85%(95%confidence interval:53%-95%) within one year after vaccination,and the effectiveness in two-dose recipients and three-dose recipients was 87%(95%confidence interval:54%-96%) and 60%,respectively;it was 96%(95%confidence interval:78%-99%) within 2-5 years after vaccination,and the effectiveness in two-dose recipients and three-dose recipients was 95%(95%confidence interval:19%-100%) and 96%(95%confidence interval:70%-99%),respectively;it was 100%(only one article included) within 6-9.6 years after vaccination.The effectiveness in two-dose recipients was 88%(95%confidence interval:62%-96%) during 1-2.5 years after vaccination,and that in three-dose recipients was 94%(95%confidence interval:70%-99%) during 1-5 years after vaccination.Conclusions HFRS bivalent vaccine is effective in field,and there is no difference between two-dose recipients and three-dose recipients.We should do some further studies on the long-term effectiveness of HFRS bivalent vaccine and on the age of vaccine reception.
文摘The Z 10 and Z 37 strains of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome (HFRS) virus and the Mongolian gerbil ( Merions unguiculatus ) kidney cells were used to prepare the inactivated bivalent vaccine. A phase Ⅱ clinical trial use of this vaccine was made in 750 Chinese volunteers. The results showed that the side reaction rate was 2.5% and the sero-conversion rate of neutralizing antibodies against Hantaan and Seoul viruses in the inoculated volunteers were 87.6% and 96.3% respectively.

文摘The maintenance of stem cells within the root meristem is the foundation for the continuous growth of the root system.The PLETHORA(PLT)transcription factors control root meristem patterning,but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear.In this study,we show that rice PLT3,PLT4,and PLT5 promote a repressive chromatin state to maintain stem cell fate in the root meristem.We demonstrated that PLT5 interacts with Polycomb repressive complex 2(PRC2),which deposits the repressive mark H3K27me3,and the histone demethylase JMJ703,which removes the active mark H3K4me3 in rice root meristem cells.In addition,JMJ703 itself associates with PRC2 proteins.We found that loss of PLT3,PLT4,and PLT5 function results in decreased PRC2 association H3K27me3,increased H3K4me3,and upregulated expression of genes decorated with the two marks in the root meristem.Further analyses revealed that PLT interactions with PRC2 and JMJ703 enhance the H3K27me3/H3K4me3 ratio at a set of bivalent genes,thereby maintaining their silent state.Taken together,these results uncover a chromatin mechanism by which PLTs control the stem cell fate in the rice root meristem.

文摘Osteoarthritis(OA)is the most prevalent joint disorder occurring with articular cartilage degradation.It includes a switch from an articularto a growth plate chondrocyte phenotype.Here,we investigated the histone modification profiles and found significant H3K27me3 loss inOA,which led to disease-associated gene expression.Surprisingly,these genes were occupied by both H3K27me3 and H3K4me3 in normalchondrocytes,showing a poised bivalent state.Furthermore,we observed the derepression of similar bivalent genes in growth platechondrocytes.Finally,a KDM6B inhibitor GSK-J4 prevented the H3K27me3 loss and cartilage damage in the rat OA model.Our resultsreveal an inherited bivalent epigenetic signature on developmental genes that makes articular chondrocytes prone to hypertrophy andcontributes to a promising epigenetic therapy for OA.
文摘Human papillomavirus(HPV)vaccination administered before viral exposure(i.e.,prior to sexual debut)effectively prevents infection with vaccine-type HPV strains and associated diseases,including cervical cancer.To advance HPV vaccination efforts and cervical cancer prevention,China has incorporated the bivalent HPV vaccine(types 16/18)into its National Immunization Program(NIP)as a program vaccine.This Policy Note presents comprehensive technical and implementation guidelines for HPV vaccine deployment,encompassing guidance development methodology,target population definition,routine vaccination schedules,catch-up vaccination protocols,implementation strategies,vaccine coverage and adverse event monitoring plans,and anticipated implementation challenges with proposed mitigation measures.The Vaccine Technical Working Groups of the China CDC developed relevant technical recommendations and guidelines,which were officially issued in November 2025.
