The brown planthopper ( BPH) resistances of RI lines were evaluated. Based on bulked segregant analysis (BSA), two protein bulks were made by extracting proteins from equally mixed seedlings of extremely resistant and susceptible plants selected from the RI population, respectively. Two-dimensional electrophoresis was used to detect the changes of polypeptide pattern. Results showed that a protein P40 ( pI 6.3, Mw 40 kD) was significantly reduced or vanished after BPH infestation for 48 h in the susceptible bulk, while it remained uninfluenced in the resistant bulk. In connection with the physiological changes of the resistant and susceptible lines subjected to BPH sucking, we suppose that the protein P40 is related to the interaction responses of lice plants to BPH infestation.展开更多

Fourteen enzymes, presumptively coded by 24 loci were detected to be variable. Gene frequencies of each population at each locus were presented. The commonly used measure of genetic diversity, the average heterozygosity (H) were calculated based on gene frequencies. The results indicated that Megophryinae had a high level of genetic diversity in amphibians, an average H of 0.18, ranging from 0.058 to 0.28. Nei's (1978) genetic distances(Nei's D) were calculated for all possible population pairs. A dendrogram of 13 populations representing 11 species, 3 genera of Megophryinae were derived and presented by using UPGMA, based on Nei' s D. The assignment of Ophryophryne as a distinct genus were supported by an average Nei's D of 1.4067 which separated O. microstoma from all other populations.Subdivision of Brachytarsophrys from Megophrys was not supported by this study. Within Megophrys, three groups were recognized: (1)M. lateralis, M. giganticus and M. longipes; (2)M. palpebralespineosa, M. boettgeri and M. parva;(3) M. minor and M. kuatunensis. Three populations of M. omeimontis were closely related and share a clade independent from all other Megophrys, and B. feae as well.展开更多

[Method] Porcine leydig cells cultured in vitro were collected to determine the median lethal dose (LD50) of ZEN with tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay (MTT assay). Comet assay was carried out to detect the DNA damage of porcine leydig cells exposed to at 0 (negative group), 1, 5, 10, 20, 40 μmol/L of ZEN. [Result] The percentage of cell tail was 16.67%, 34.00%, 40.67%, 52.00% and 64.67% under 0, 1, 5, 10 and 20 μmol/L of ZEN, respectively; the differences between the percentages of cell tail in various experimental groups had extremely significant statistical significance compared with the negative group (P<0.01), showing a significant dose-effect relationship; Tail length in various groups was 57.60±4.78, 57.75±6.25, 78.97±5.83, 100.50±6.94 and 146.83±12.31 μm, respectively; Tail DNA % in various groups was 21.29±2.25%, 22.24±2.43%, 31.21±6.27%, 37.45±4.33% and 60.68±9.83%, respectively; Tail length and Tail DNA % in experimental groups with ZEN concentration above 5 μmol/L showed significant differences (P<0.05) compared with the negative group, which showed an upward trend with the increase of ZEN concentration. [Conclusion] ZEN has genotoxic effect on porcine leydig cells, which can cause DNA damage, with a significant dose-effect relationship.展开更多

[Method] By employing SDS-PAGE and 2-demensional electrophoresis (2-DE) techniques,proteins in various heteromorphic leaves from the same adult tree of P. euphratica were isolated and separated to the electrophoresis technique suitable for the separation and analysis of proteins in leaves of P. euphratica tree. [Results] There were significant differences in the expressions of proteins in various heteromorphic leaves of P. euphratica tree. SDS-PAGE pattern showed that bands of proteins with molecular weight of 57.2,13.2,30.2,23.9 and 33.3 kDa were remarkably different. 2-D electrophoresis pattern presented that proteins in leaves of P. euphratica tree mainly belong to acidic proteins distributed at pH value of 5.0-6.5 and with molecular weight of 20-40 kDa; totally 73 different protein spots were observed,of which 51 were up expressed and other 22 were down expressed in the serrated ovate leaves. [Conclusion] Based on these results,we speculate that regulated gene expression in leaves of P. euphratica tree results in the generation of different shapes of leaves,in order to adapt to the surroundings better.展开更多

It...Experiments of poly(dT)20 electrophoresis throughα-hemolysin nanopores were performed to unveil the electrophoretic transport mechanism of DNA through nanopores in high concentration potassium chloride solution. It is found that there are two obvious current blockades induced by poly(dT)20 translocation and collision events. Both blockade currents increase linearly with the applied bias voltage. However, the normalized blockade currents are almost kept the same although variable bias voltages are applied. The collision time of poly(dT)20 in the luminal site of the pore remains constant for different voltages. The translocation speed of poly(dT)20through the nanopore decreases with the increase of bias voltage. It is because as the potential increases, the drag force on the homopolymer helps it to crumple into a cluster much easier due to the poor stacking of thymine residues compared with homopolymers consisting of other nucleotides. Molecular dynamics simulations further confirm the experimental results. Increasing the applied bias voltage can slowdown the translocation velocity of the flexible poly(dT)20, which favors increasing the precision of single molecule detection by using nanopores.展开更多

A bare fused-silica capillary with an internal diameter (i.d.) of 75/am and an effective length of 50 cm was used for the separation. A 200 }aL plasma sample was deproteinized with 400 μL acetonitrile, and the supematant was directly injected into the capillary after a water plug at a pressure of 0.5 psi for 10 s. Boric acid (H3BO3, 200 mmol/L) solution adjusted to a pH of 8.60 with 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution was selected as the background electrolyte (BGE) through a uniform design. Calibration curve established on each day was linear over the MPA concentration range of 0.625-30.0 Bg/mL in human plasma with the correlation coefficient (r) larger than 0.9997. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.200 ~tg/mL. Intra- and inter-day precisions at three concentrations within the calibration range were less than 4.45%. Plasma samples collected from 14 renal transplant recipients treated with the prodrug mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) were analyzed successfully by both the developed CZE technique and a validated high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) technique. The mean absolute and relative differences between the concentrations measured by the two methods were -0.17 and -0.20%, respectively. In conclusion, the CZE method described here was validated to be accurate, precise, and economical for the clinical quantification of MPA.展开更多

It is shown that the migration that the (tr) is a function of electric (Q), relative molecular mass (Mr), conformation parameter (Rc) of peptides and electrophoretic condition parameter(A). The conformation parameter is introduced to characterize multifarious shapes owing to the complex conlormation and the various kinds of macromolecules, where Rc≥1/3. The parameters A and Rc can be obtained from experimental data. The times of migration of the nine standard peptides were measured in pH 2.5buffer on different electrophoretic conditions in CZE. The experimental results agreed well with the theoretical prediction.展开更多

In the present study, we used a high-performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) method for determination of the gallic acid (GA) in Quanshen (QS) pieces. The analysis of GA in QS pieces was successfully achieved in less than 6 min by capillary electrophoresis with UV detection at a wavelength of 290 nm. The background electrolyte was 20 mmol/L sodium borate solution (pH 9.00). The separation was performed in an uncoated fused-silica capillary (52 cm^50 lam) with an effective length of 40 cm, and the applied voltage was 20 kV. Sample solutions were injected for l0 s at an atmospheric pressure of 5 KPa. The result showed good resolution and precision (the intra-day RSD was 0.37%). The calibration curves of the standard solutions were linear in the range of 0.22-2.25 mg/mL, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9990. The recovery of the method ranged from 100.6% to 107.9%, and the average recovery of GA was 105.9% with an RSD of 3.63%. HPCE is a powerful technology, and it is the first time to successfully apply such a method for the determination of GA in the traditional Chinese medicine.展开更多

文摘Allozymes of eleven species of Megophryinae in China were examined electrophoretically to investigate genetic diversity and phylogenetic relationships. Fourteen enzymes, presumptively coded by 24 loci were detected to be variable. Gene frequencies of each population at each locus were presented. The commonly used measure of genetic diversity, the average heterozygosity (H) were calculated based on gene frequencies. The results indicated that Megophryinae had a high level of genetic diversity in amphibians, an average H of 0.18, ranging from 0.058 to 0.28. Nei's (1978) genetic distances(Nei's D) were calculated for all possible population pairs. A dendrogram of 13 populations representing 11 species, 3 genera of Megophryinae were derived and presented by using UPGMA, based on Nei' s D. The assignment of Ophryophryne as a distinct genus were supported by an average Nei's D of 1.4067 which separated O. microstoma from all other populations.Subdivision of Brachytarsophrys from Megophrys was not supported by this study. Within Megophrys, three groups were recognized: (1)M. lateralis, M. giganticus and M. longipes; (2)M. palpebralespineosa, M. boettgeri and M. parva;(3) M. minor and M. kuatunensis. Three populations of M. omeimontis were closely related and share a clade independent from all other Megophrys, and B. feae as well.

文摘[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the effect of zearalenone (ZEN) on DNA damage of porcine leydig cells. [Method] Porcine leydig cells cultured in vitro were collected to determine the median lethal dose (LD50) of ZEN with tetrazolium-based colorimetric assay (MTT assay). Comet assay was carried out to detect the DNA damage of porcine leydig cells exposed to at 0 (negative group), 1, 5, 10, 20, 40 μmol/L of ZEN. [Result] The percentage of cell tail was 16.67%, 34.00%, 40.67%, 52.00% and 64.67% under 0, 1, 5, 10 and 20 μmol/L of ZEN, respectively; the differences between the percentages of cell tail in various experimental groups had extremely significant statistical significance compared with the negative group (P<0.01), showing a significant dose-effect relationship; Tail length in various groups was 57.60±4.78, 57.75±6.25, 78.97±5.83, 100.50±6.94 and 146.83±12.31 μm, respectively; Tail DNA % in various groups was 21.29±2.25%, 22.24±2.43%, 31.21±6.27%, 37.45±4.33% and 60.68±9.83%, respectively; Tail length and Tail DNA % in experimental groups with ZEN concentration above 5 μmol/L showed significant differences (P<0.05) compared with the negative group, which showed an upward trend with the increase of ZEN concentration. [Conclusion] ZEN has genotoxic effect on porcine leydig cells, which can cause DNA damage, with a significant dose-effect relationship.
文摘[Objective] This study was to elucidate the cellular and molecular mechanism of the development of heteromorphic leaves of Populus euphratica Oliv. [Method] By employing SDS-PAGE and 2-demensional electrophoresis (2-DE) techniques,proteins in various heteromorphic leaves from the same adult tree of P. euphratica were isolated and separated to the electrophoresis technique suitable for the separation and analysis of proteins in leaves of P. euphratica tree. [Results] There were significant differences in the expressions of proteins in various heteromorphic leaves of P. euphratica tree. SDS-PAGE pattern showed that bands of proteins with molecular weight of 57.2,13.2,30.2,23.9 and 33.3 kDa were remarkably different. 2-D electrophoresis pattern presented that proteins in leaves of P. euphratica tree mainly belong to acidic proteins distributed at pH value of 5.0-6.5 and with molecular weight of 20-40 kDa; totally 73 different protein spots were observed,of which 51 were up expressed and other 22 were down expressed in the serrated ovate leaves. [Conclusion] Based on these results,we speculate that regulated gene expression in leaves of P. euphratica tree results in the generation of different shapes of leaves,in order to adapt to the surroundings better.

文摘Experiments of poly(dT)20 electrophoresis throughα-hemolysin nanopores were performed to unveil the electrophoretic transport mechanism of DNA through nanopores in high concentration potassium chloride solution. It is found that there are two obvious current blockades induced by poly(dT)20 translocation and collision events. Both blockade currents increase linearly with the applied bias voltage. However, the normalized blockade currents are almost kept the same although variable bias voltages are applied. The collision time of poly(dT)20 in the luminal site of the pore remains constant for different voltages. The translocation speed of poly(dT)20through the nanopore decreases with the increase of bias voltage. It is because as the potential increases, the drag force on the homopolymer helps it to crumple into a cluster much easier due to the poor stacking of thymine residues compared with homopolymers consisting of other nucleotides. Molecular dynamics simulations further confirm the experimental results. Increasing the applied bias voltage can slowdown the translocation velocity of the flexible poly(dT)20, which favors increasing the precision of single molecule detection by using nanopores.

文摘Mycophenolic acid (MPA), an immunosuppressive drug, was determined in human plasma by a simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method. A bare fused-silica capillary with an internal diameter (i.d.) of 75/am and an effective length of 50 cm was used for the separation. A 200 }aL plasma sample was deproteinized with 400 μL acetonitrile, and the supematant was directly injected into the capillary after a water plug at a pressure of 0.5 psi for 10 s. Boric acid (H3BO3, 200 mmol/L) solution adjusted to a pH of 8.60 with 1 mol/L sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution was selected as the background electrolyte (BGE) through a uniform design. Calibration curve established on each day was linear over the MPA concentration range of 0.625-30.0 Bg/mL in human plasma with the correlation coefficient (r) larger than 0.9997. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.200 ~tg/mL. Intra- and inter-day precisions at three concentrations within the calibration range were less than 4.45%. Plasma samples collected from 14 renal transplant recipients treated with the prodrug mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) were analyzed successfully by both the developed CZE technique and a validated high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) technique. The mean absolute and relative differences between the concentrations measured by the two methods were -0.17 and -0.20%, respectively. In conclusion, the CZE method described here was validated to be accurate, precise, and economical for the clinical quantification of MPA.
文摘A peptides migration model based on the principle of mechanics is presented in capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE). It is shown that the migration that the (tr) is a function of electric (Q), relative molecular mass (Mr), conformation parameter (Rc) of peptides and electrophoretic condition parameter(A). The conformation parameter is introduced to characterize multifarious shapes owing to the complex conlormation and the various kinds of macromolecules, where Rc≥1/3. The parameters A and Rc can be obtained from experimental data. The times of migration of the nine standard peptides were measured in pH 2.5buffer on different electrophoretic conditions in CZE. The experimental results agreed well with the theoretical prediction.

文摘Rhizoma Polygoni Bistortae has been widely used as an important medicinal herb in the Far East for a few thousand years, and it has gained more recognition in the last few decades. In the present study, we used a high-performance capillary electrophoresis (HPCE) method for determination of the gallic acid (GA) in Quanshen (QS) pieces. The analysis of GA in QS pieces was successfully achieved in less than 6 min by capillary electrophoresis with UV detection at a wavelength of 290 nm. The background electrolyte was 20 mmol/L sodium borate solution (pH 9.00). The separation was performed in an uncoated fused-silica capillary (52 cm^50 lam) with an effective length of 40 cm, and the applied voltage was 20 kV. Sample solutions were injected for l0 s at an atmospheric pressure of 5 KPa. The result showed good resolution and precision (the intra-day RSD was 0.37%). The calibration curves of the standard solutions were linear in the range of 0.22-2.25 mg/mL, with correlation coefficients greater than 0.9990. The recovery of the method ranged from 100.6% to 107.9%, and the average recovery of GA was 105.9% with an RSD of 3.63%. HPCE is a powerful technology, and it is the first time to successfully apply such a method for the determination of GA in the traditional Chinese medicine.
