辐射基因治疗在肿瘤治疗中的研究现状

目前肿瘤基因治疗尚存在许多问题, 距临床应用还有相当的距离, 但是在传统的放疗、化疗和手术治疗的基础上, 辐射与基因治疗的有机结合在肿瘤治疗中却显示出可喜的前景。综述了近年来这一领域的研究进展, 探讨了这一疗法对肿瘤治疗的应用前景。Although tumor gene therapy has a distance to clinical use due to some problems, the combination of irradiation and gene therapy holds much promise in cancer therapy based on the traditional radiotherapy, chemotherapy and surgery. We have termed this therapeutic radiogenic therapy. This review focuses on the group of radiogenic therapy that are either: ⑴ improvement of gene transfer efficiency by irradiation; ⑵ radiotherapy combined with cytokines gene delivery or enhancement of the immunity of tumor cells by transgene; ⑶ directly stimulated by radiation to produce either directly or indirectly cytotoxic agents; ⑷ increasing of radiosensitivity in gene therapy; ⑸ radioprotective gene therapy enhances radiation tumor killing effect while protecting the normal tissue and organs with transgene using transfer vector.     

辐射免疫学研究进展

At the same time, the research of radiobiological effect on heavy ions has played an important role in the cancer therapy, especially on the radiation immunology of heavy ions in the outer space. In this review, we summaried the status and development of radiation-immunology, and try to find out some better ways which can increase efficient killing on tumours, but reduce the damages on normal tissues.     

大分割碳离子放射治疗中相对生物学效应与剂量依赖关系的研究

应用碳离子束进行大分割放射治疗从而缩短治疗周期是碳离子束治疗的优势之一。为研究大分割放疗增加单次照射剂量后,碳离子束相对生物学效应（RBE）的变化,应用细胞存活线性平方（LQ）模型推导出RBE与剂量的依赖关系。基于此关系研究了具有不同辐射敏感性的肿瘤细胞和正常组织细胞RBE随剂量的变化。结果表明,在0~20 Gy范围内,不论肿瘤细胞与正常组织细胞具有怎样的辐射敏感性,肿瘤细胞的RBE值始终大于正常组织细胞。此外,基于理论推导和对相关实验数据的分析,证实了RBE随剂量增加而递增现象的存在。这些结果对应用碳离子束进行大分割放射治疗具有重要的指导作用。Short treatment course due to the suitability of hypofractionated regimen for carbon ion beam is one of the advantages of carbon ion radiotherapy. To study the dependence of relative biological effectiveness (RBE) on dose, the relationship between RBE and dose was deduced through the linear-quadratic (LQ) model. Based on the relationship, the change of RBE of tumor cells and normal tissue cells with different radiosensitivities with dose was studied. The results showed that the RBE value of tumor cells was always greater than that of normal tissue cells in the dose range of 0~20 Gy, regardless of the radiosensitivity of tumor and normal tissue cells. In addition, based on theoretical deduction and analysis of the relevant experimental data, the existence of RBE increase with increasing dose was verified. These results are of great significance for conducting hypofractionated radiotherapy with carbon ion beam.     

替拉扎明-金纳米粒子复合物对人肝癌HepG2细胞的辐射增敏效应研究

将替拉扎明(TPZ) 与聚乙二醇包被的金纳米粒子(PEG-GNP) 偶联,形成新型替拉扎明-金纳米粒子复合物(TPZ-PEG-GNP)。利用酶标仪获得TPZ-PEG-GNP 在200  800 nm范围内的紫外-可见光吸收光谱;采用电感耦合等离子体质谱(ICP-MS) 检测TPZ-PEG-GNP 在人肝癌HepG2 细胞中的摄取量;MTT法检测TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞增殖活力的影响;香豆素-3-羧酸(3-CCA) 羟自由基探针检测X 射线和碳离子辐照下TPZ-PEG-GNP 在水中的羟自由基辐射增强效应;克隆形成法检测X 射线及碳离子辐照下TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞的辐射增敏效应。实验结果表明:TPZ偶联到PEG-GNP 上形成的TPZPEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞基本无毒;在有氧条件下,TPZ-PEG-GNP 在水中显著增加X射线和碳离子辐照下的羟自由基产额,对HepG2 细胞具有明显的辐射增敏效应;在X 射线及碳离子辐照下10% 存活水平时,TPZ-PEG-GNP 对HepG2 细胞的辐射增敏比分别为1.23 和1.47。

Tirapazamine (TPZ) was conjugated with polyethylene-glycol-coated gold nanoparticles (PEGGNP) to form new tirapazamine-gold nanoparticle compounds (TPZ-PEG-GNP). UV-vis absorption spectrum of TPZ-PEG-GNP at wavelengths from 200 to 800 nm was measured with a microplate reader. The kinetics
of TPZ-PEG-GNP uptake by human hepatoma  HepG2 cells was determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). To evaluate the cellular toxicity of TPZ-PEG-GNP, the effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cell viability was examined by means of the MTT method. Moreover, the radiation enhancement effect of hydroxide radical production in ultra-pure water with TPZ-PEG-GNP exposed to X-rays and carbon ions was investigated using coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (3-CCA) as the free radical probe. More importantly, the radiosensitizing effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells irradiated with X-rays and carbon ions was assessed with the clonogenic survival assay. Our experimental results indicate that TPZ-PEG-GNP had nearly no toxicity to HepG2 cells. The yield of hydroxide radicals in ultra-pure water in the presence of TPZ-PEG-GNP after exposure to X-rays and carbon ions increased obviously and an obvious radiosensitizing effect of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells was observed under aerobic conditions. The radiation enhancement ratio of TPZ-PEG-GNP on HepG2 cells exposed to X-rays and carbon ions was 1.23 and 1.47 at 10% survival level.     

辐照诱导人正常肝细胞系HL-7702 细胞远后的微卫星不稳定性

采用高传能线密度(LET) 的12C6+离子束和低LET 的X 射线辐照人正常肝细胞系HL-7702 细胞,利用微卫星不稳定性(MSI) 检测来分析直接受照射细胞和通过转移培养基方式旁细胞传代八代子细胞以MSI 表征的远后效应。实验结果表明,12C6+离子束诱导的远后效应较X射线的低;旁细胞的远后效应较直接受照射细胞的高;辐射引起的MSI 与杂合性丢失(LOH) 的发生率具有位点特异性。结果提示,重离子放射治疗较X 射线放射治疗对正常组织引发的辐射风险要小,可通过对MSI 高发位点的筛选来评估放疗后患者长期生存状况和二次癌症发生风险。Human normal liver cell line HL-7702 cells were irradiated with high linear energy transfer (LET) 12C6+ ions and low-LET X-rays, respectively. Delayed effect in terms of microsatellite instability (MSI) in progenies of the directly irradiated cells and bystander cells, obtained in the way of medium transfer at the 8th passage postirradiation,were examined. The delayed effect induced by the high-LET 12C6+ ions was different from that induced by the low-LET X-rays, and a higher incidence of MSI was observed in the progenies of the cells after exposure to the X-rays than to the 12C6+ ions. We also found that the delayed effect in the progenies of the bystander cells was much more severe than thoseof directly irradiated cells. Furthermore, the events of MSI and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) induced by the ionizing radiations were not randomly distributed throughout the genome and specific loci existed indeed. These results imply that the radiation risk to normal tissues is lower in heavy ion therapy than in conventional X-ray radiotherapy, and the analysis of microsatellite loci with MSI high frequency occurrence can be applied to access long-term survival condition and second cancer risk for the patients after radiotherapy.

综述了3D细胞培养技术（TDCC）的发展, 3种主要的体外组织构建方法; 辐射诱导2D细胞产生旁效应的现象与机理; 人工构建的3D组织辐射后诱导的旁效应及其细胞间信号传导机理。 重离子（C离子）辐照作为一种重要的放疗工具, 对其辐射处理3D组织后诱导产生的旁效应进行了展望。 由于3D组织更接近人体细胞生长的真实环境, 因而以3D组织作为模型研究辐射诱导的旁效应, 对于辐射旁效应的防护和治疗可能具有重要的指导意义。 Compared with the cultured monolayer (2D) cells, three dimensional (3D) tissue could be more similar to the environment in vivo including the physical support, chemical factors, cell cell and cell matrix interaction and so on. With the development of three dimensional cell culture techniques (TDCC), 3D tissue is widely used in the areas of bystander effect research. This review focuses on introducing the TDCC method and its application in bystander effect research. First, the development process of 3D tissue culture method was introduced. Secondly, the induction of radiation induced bystander effects both in 2D cell and 3D tissue and its mechanisms were reviewed. Finally, because heavy ion (carbon ion beam) has been developed as a useful tool to cure solid cancer ,and the 3D tissue model is an ideal material to study the damages on body after being irradiated and to understand the underlying mechanisms, future study about heavy ion radiation inducing bystander effect in 3D tissue was discussed.     

和厚朴酚对非小细胞肺癌细胞的辐射增敏效应

研究了和厚朴酚（HNK）对非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）细胞系A549和H1299对低线性能量转移（LET） X射线和高LET碳离子的辐射增敏效应。首先用CCK-8检测了HNK对A549和H1299细胞的生长抑制情况,发现20 μmol/L的HNK处理对细胞的生长抑制作用较弱。用该浓度HNK预处理细胞2 h后给予不同剂量X射线或碳离子的照射,克隆存活法检测细胞的辐射敏感性,Annexin-PI双染法检测细胞凋亡,γH2AX焦点法检测DNA的双链断裂（DSB）损伤。实验结果显示:与X射线相比,NSCLC细胞对碳离子更敏感,HNK预处理仅对碳离子照射有辐射增敏作用;与碳离子单独照射相比,HNK预处理联合碳离子照射诱导了更明显的细胞凋亡;在照射后24 h,HNK预处理联合碳离子照射引起的细胞γH2AX焦点阳性率维持在较高水平,而X射线照射没有这些效应。实验结果表明,HNK预处理抑制了NSCLC细胞DNA的DSB修复,诱导了细胞凋亡的发生,从而提高了细胞对碳离子的辐射敏感性。The radiosensitizing effect of Honokiol (HNK) on non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC) cell lines A549 and H1299 to low-linear energy transfer (LET) X-rays and high-LET carbon ions was investigated in this study. First, the inhibitory effects of HNK on the growth of A549 and H1299 cells were detected by CCK-8 assay, and 20 μmol/L HNK treatment was found to induce a growth inhibitory effect slightly in these two cell lines. Cells were pre-treated with HNK and then irradiated with X-rays and carbon ions of different doses. Cellular radiosensitivity, apoptosis and DNA damage were analyzed by clonogenic survival, Annexin-PI staining and γH2AX foci, respectively. The results showed the cells were more sensitive to carbon ion irradiation compared to X-rays and the radiosensitization of HNK was only observed after carbon ion irradiation. Furthermore, the co-treatment led to higher apoptosis rate 48 h after irradiation and increased the positive rate of γH2AX foci 24 h after irradiation in A549 and H1299 cells compared with those in the groups treated with carbon ion irradiation alone. These phenomena were not observed after X-ray irradiation. Our data suggest that the pre-treatment with HNK inhibited DNA DSB repair, induced apoptosis and then enhanced the cellular radiosensitivity to carbon ions in NSCLC cells.     

基于细胞红外光谱预测乙酰化细胞的辐射敏感性

组蛋白乙酰化是表观遗传修饰的一种重要方式。肿瘤细胞的组蛋白大部分呈现低乙酰化状态,而组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂（histone deacetylase inhibitor,HDACi）可以增加肿瘤细胞的乙酰化水平,诱导细胞周期阻滞及凋亡。曲古菌素A （trichostatin A,TSA）是组蛋白去乙酰化酶抑制剂的代表药物之一,能够提高肿瘤细胞组蛋白和非组蛋白的乙酰化水平。傅里叶变换红外（Fourier Transform Infrared,FTIR）光谱可以对无染色、无标记的生物样品进行无损检测,具有特征性明显、快速、分辨率高、重复性好等优点,已被广泛用于细胞的微观生物过程的研究。本文利用红外光谱技术结合免疫荧光技术的手段,研究TSA处理细胞后的乙酰化作用效果,发现红外光谱中甲基与亚甲基的伸缩振动强度之比能够表征细胞内的乙酰化水平变化,然后基于红外光谱的分析结果预测了乙酰化状态不同的细胞辐射敏感性的变化。结果表明,乙酰化细胞的辐射损伤效应可以通过甲基与亚甲基的伸缩振动强度之比进行评价,且该比值与细胞的辐射敏感性呈正相关,表明红外光谱技术可以辅助预测细胞的辐射敏感性,并进行细胞表观遗传学特征与辐射效应关系的研究。Histone acetylation is one of important epigenetic modifications, and histone in most of tumor cells shows low acetylation state. However, histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACi) can correct abnormal acetylation status, induce cell cycle arrest and apoptosis. Trichostatin A (TSA) is one of the representatives of histone deacetylase inhibitors, which can inhibit histone deacetylase, increase the acetylation level of histone and nonhistone in cell. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical tool which can detect nondestructively, quatitatively and quantitatively biological samples without bio-tagging and bio-labeling. FTIR spectroscopy technology has multiple advantages, including finger-print characteristics, rapid analysis, high resolution and good repeatability. Therefore, it has been widely used in the research of biological processes. This work applied FTIR spectroscopy to study the changes in cells treated with TSA, compared the acetylation level according to FTIR intensity ratio of methyl to methylene stretching vibration, and based on the FTIR analysis predicted the radiosensitivity of the cells with different acetylation levels. As a result, we have verified that the damage caused by radiation in acetylated cells can be evaluated by the ratio of methyl and methylene intensity which is positively correlated with cellular radiosensitivity. Therefore, this work demonstrates that FTIR spectroscopy can be useful for the prediction of radiosensitivity and may also open a door for the study of relationship between epigenetics and radiation bio-effects.     

Effects of Nitric Oxide on Growth and Sensitivity of Human Glioma A172 Cells to ^60Co and X-ray Radiation

Nitric oxide (NO)has been implicated both in regression and progression of tumors due to its production by both tumor cells and infiltrating lymphocytes. Ionizing radiation causes the regression of tumors, and can augment the production of NO by macrophages in vitro. The authors examined the effect of nitric oxide (NO) generating agent sodium nitroprusside (SNP) on the growth and radiosensitivity of cultured glioma A172 cells to ^60Co or X-ray radiation.     

辐射诱发体内旁效应特征的研究进展

大量的细胞生物学研究显示, 辐射诱发旁效应的传输信号包括活性氧自由基（ROS）、 一氧化氮自由基（NO）以及一些细胞因子。 近年来,越来越多的文献报道关于体内旁效应特征的研究, 并已经证实在生物体内辐射诱导的旁效应不仅能发生在相邻组织, 还可发生在远源器官。这些体内旁效应包括DNA损伤、表观遗传学改变、miRNA及基因表达改变、 细胞增殖和凋亡等。 为了总结和分析辐射诱发体内旁效应的特征, 本文综述了辐射诱发体内旁效应的特点, 包括其与性别、 传播途径、辐射品质的关系以及相关机制的研究。 Radiation induced bystander effect is defined as the induction of damage in neighboring non hit cells by signals released from directly irradiated cells. ROS, NO and cytokines are involved in signaling pathways of bystander effects. Recently, the bystander effects in vivo have been reported more and more. It has been indicated that radiation induced bystander effect was localized not only in bystander tissues but also in distant organs. This effect includes many biological endpoints such as DNA damage, epigenetic, miRNA and gene expression changes, cell proliferation and apoptosis. In this review we described different aspects of ionizing radiation induced bystander effects such as its characteristics, sex specific, signaling transfer, dose and LET dependence, and related mechanisms.     

二烯丙基二硫对12C6+离子束辐照损伤小鼠的保护作用研究

研究大蒜素重要活性成分二烯丙基二硫( Diallyl disulfide, 简称DADS) 对12C6+离子束辐照损伤小鼠的保护作用。利用4 Gy 剂量12C6+离子束对不同浓度DADS 预处理的雄性昆明小鼠进行单次全身照射。随后检测骨髓细胞微核率和肝组织中丙二醛(MDA) 含量、蛋白质总羰基含量、总抗氧化能力( TAOC)及谷丙转氨酶(ALT ) 活性。结果显示,与单纯照射组相比,低浓度DADS 预处理组骨髓细胞微核率和肝组织ALT 活性均显著降低(p<0.001),而肝组织T-AOC明显增强( p < 0.05 );中浓度DADS 预处理组肝组织中MDA 含量和蛋白质总羰基含量均显著减少( p < 0.05 )。结果提示,DADS通过抑制氧化应激,有效地保护了脂质、蛋白质和遗传物质免受12C6+离子束辐照引起的损伤。The radioprotective effect of Diallyl disulfide (DADS) on 12C6+ ion irradiation was studied. Pretreated with DADS of different concentration, male Kung-Ming mice were exposed to whole body irradiation with dosage of 4 Gy 12C6+ ion. The animals were sacrificed after irradiation. Then the bone marrow cells micronucleus rate, malondialdehyde (MDA) levels, content of protein carbonylation, total antioxidant capacity ( T-AOC) and alanine aminotransferase ( ALT ) activity were measured. As compared with those in irradiated group, the ratio of micronucleus cells in marrow and the hepatic ALT activity in the pretreatment group with low dose DADS decreased significantly ( p < 0.001 ). Similarly,the content of protein carbonylation and the levels of MDA droped dramatically in the group with middle dose DADS treatment ( p < 0.05 ). On the contrary, the hepatic T-AOC increased markedly in the group of pretreatment with low dose DADS ( p < 0.05 ). The results showed that DADS protect lipoid, protein and genetic material from 12C6+ ion irradiation by right of resisting oxidative stress.     

Some Biochemical Aspects of the Protective Effect of Strontium Chloride on Gamma-Irradiated Rats

The effect of treatment with SrCl₂ (10 mg/100 g rat) on rats 15 minutes prior to whole body γ-irradiation (7,5 Gy) was studied. The hazardeous effect of irradiation were greatly corrected in the treated group. The hyperglycemic effect and liver glycogen accumulation in the untreated group decreased to normal level. The enzymatic activities of serum alkaline phosphatase, alanine aminotransferase, aspartate aminotransferase and lactate dehydrogencase were greatly affected showing insignificant changes in the treated group of animals. Life span calculated on 50% survival was also significantly elongated by 36.3%. These results show the potentiality of SrCl₂ as a radioprotective agent which was not used before.     

Intracellular sugars improve survival of human red blood cells cryopreserved at -80 degrees C in the presence of polyvinyl pyrrolidone and human serum albumin

Cryopreservation with impermeable protectants has great significance on storage of human red blood cells. It has become feasible to use glycerol free cryopreservation for human red blood cells. This study focuses on the effect of intracellular trehalose or glucose on human red blood cells cryopreserved in the presence of polymer. Red blood cells were cryopreserved for 48 h-72 h at -80 degrees C. The data showed that the loading efficiency of glucose was significantly higher than that of trehalose, but trehalose loading process induced more hemolysis than glucose loading process. Compared with the other groups, the combination of intracellular glucose, PVP, and human serum albumin can significantly decrease the percent hemolysis after cryopreservation (P<0.01). However, the percent hemolysis induced by intracellular trehalose was less than that induced by extracellular trehalose, but the difference was not significant (P<0.05). The adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP) level and 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) level of cryopreserved red blood cells were significantly less than those of fresh red blood cells. However, sugars can provide certain protection for ATP and 2, 3-DPG compared with red blood cells cryopreserved in the absence of sugars. The protection of glucose on the metabolic function was more than that of trehalose. Cryopreservation can increase the percentage of cells with exposed phosphatidylserine (PS), but the ability of trehalose to maintain PS normal distribution is higher than that of glucose. Furthermore, intracellular sugars can protect membrane integrity of cryopreserved red blood cells, although a small portion of cells appeared spherocytic or echinocytic shape. Finally, most membrane proteins of cryopreserved red blood cells were similar to the membrane proteins of fresh red blood cells, but trehalose can result in loss of glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPD) and peroxiredoxin 2. In conclusion, it is feasible to cryopreserve red blood cells using polymer, human albumin and sugars as main protectants. The cryoprotective effect of glucose may be better than that of trehalose in the presence of PVP and human serum albumin, because sugar loading process causes more cell injuries in case of trehalose compared to glucose, and these injuries in turn manifest themselves during subsequent cryopreservation and thawing. In the future, finding an approach to decrease the injuries during trehalose loading process still is critical.     

Radiosensitivity of CD3−CD8+CD56+ NK cells

The effect of lower doses (0.5–3.0 Gy) of gamma radiation on radiosensitivity of CD3?/CD8+ NK cells subpopulation isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers was studied 48 h after the irradiation. Only a subtle increase in terms of induction of apoptosis (A+ cells), was observed in Annexin positive CD3?/CD8+ NK cells. The assessment of the relative presence of CD3^?/CD8⁺ NK cells in Annexin negative populations of lymphocytes considerably contributes to the elimination of individual variability and could be useful in biodosimetry.Living CD3?/CD8+; Annexin negative NK cells were analyzed using five-color flow cytometry 16 h after irradiation by the doses of 1–10 Gy. The study was carried out on NK cells subsets CD3?/CD8? CD16+, CD56 (dim) and CD56 (bright). NK cells characterized with their low-density expression of CD56 (dim) are more cytotoxic and express CD16. Those with high-density expression of CD56 (bright) are known for their capacity to produce cytokines following activation of monocytes but their natural cytotoxicity is low; they are classified as CD16? or CD16 (dim). A dose-depending decrease in the relative presence of CD3?/CD8+ NK cells was observed 16 h after ionizing radiation (1–10 Gy). The decrease was highly pronounced in CD56 (bright) subset of NK cells and this subpopulation was considered as the most radiosensitive one. Unfortunately, the most radiosensitive subpopulation of NK cells – CD56bright cannot be used as a biodosimetric marker due to its insufficient amount in peripheral blood.     

Implementation of garlic cryopreservation techniques in the national plant germplasm system

The USDA-ARS National Plant Germplasm System (NPGS) maintains more than 200 Allium sativum (garlic) accessions at the Western Regional Plant Introduction Station in Pullman, WA. All accessions must be grown out in the field annually since garlic plants from these accessions do not reliably produce seeds and bulbs do not store well. Shoot tips excised from garlic cloves can be successfully cryopreserved using either Plant Vitrification Solution 2 (PVS2; 15 percent v/v DMSO, 15 percent v/v ethylene glycol, 30 percent v/w glycerol, 0.4 M sucrose) or Plant Vitrification Solution 3 (PVS3; 50 percent v/w sucrose, 50 percent v/w glycerol). We compared regrowth of shoot tips representing diverse garlic germplasm after exposure to either PVS2 or PVS3 during the cryopreservation procedure. At the USDA-ARS National Center for Genetic Resources Preservation, a component of the NPGS, we consider accessions successfully preserved if a minimum of 40 percent of explants exhibit regrowth after liquid nitrogen exposure and at least 60 viable shoot tips remain in long-term storage. Ten of twelve diverse garlic accessions were successfully cryopreserved using either PVS2 or PVS3 as cryoprotectants. Five genotypes had the best post liquid nitrogen regrowth after exposure to PVS2, four genotypes had the best regrowth after exposure to PVS3, and three genotypes performed equally well using either cryoprotectant solution. This project is part of an ongoing program to cryopreserve accessions of NPGS clonal crop collections.     

两种保护剂对C离子诱导小鼠急性肝损伤的应答

比较了N-乙酰半胱氨酸(NAC)及乙酰左旋肉毒碱(ALCAR)对12C6+离子照射小鼠的损伤效应,并探讨了其可能的作用机制。利用4Gy剂量的12C6+离子束对预先给予NAC(100mg/kg)和ALCAR(100mg/kg)保护的昆明小鼠进行单次全身照射。随后检测肝组织中总抗氧化能力(TAC)、DNA单链断裂和细胞凋亡率。结果显示,与照射对照组相比,提前给予NAC和ALCAR均极显著地增强了肝组织的抗氧化能力(P0.001),减轻了12C6+离子导致的肝组织中DNA断裂(P0.001)和细胞凋亡(P0.001)。此外,还发现ALCAR组抗重离子辐照损伤的能力显著地高于NAC组(P0.05)。实验结果提示了NAC和ALCAR可通过抵御组织内的氧化胁迫,阻止DNA链的断裂和细胞的凋亡,实现对C离子辐照损伤的保护效应。而且ALCAR比NAC可能更适合成为有潜力、有希望的抗C重离子辐射药物。

微波消解-ICP-OES,AAS和AFS测定大蒜不同部位20种元素含量

将大蒜植株分为根、茎(下)、茎(中)、茎(上)、嫩叶和老叶6个不同部位,采用微波消解方法对各个部位进行了预处理,并用电感耦合等离子体发射光谱法(ICP-OES)、原子吸收光谱法(AAS)和原子荧光光谱法(AFS)测定了其中Al,As,B,Ca,Cd,Cr,Cu,Fe,Hg,K,Mg,Mn,Na,Ni,P,Pb,S,Se,Sr和Zn共20种元素的含量,另外,还测定了从同一处土壤中采收的大蒜头中相应元素的含量.研究结果表明:大蒜植株嫩叶和大蒜头中Cu,Fe,Mn,S,Se,Zn等元素含量较高而As,Cd,Hg,Pb等元素含量较低,是提取大蒜生物活性物质的绝好材料;一些元素在大蒜植株不同部位的含量分布模式能高度反映植物生理特性或环境污染状况.
