MTT法测定稀土离子对BEL-7402及K562细胞的毒性及增殖毒性

用MTT法测定稀土离子在不同浓度、不同培养液中,与BEL 7402和K562细胞作用不同时间,对细胞的毒性和增殖毒性。结果表明,在含10%小牛血清培养液中,仅个别稀土离子在较高浓度时对BEL 7402细胞增殖有较弱的抑制作用;对于K562细胞,稀土离子在低浓度时对细胞增殖即表现出较强的抑制作用(P<0.05)。当培养液不含小牛血清时,较低浓度的稀土离子即可抑制BEL 7402细胞的增殖(P<0 05)。     

γ-聚谷氨酸在细胞冻存中的作用

无DMSO、无血清细胞冻存液在临床级细胞产品的冷冻保存中具有重要的应用价值。本文以K562细胞为模型,设置含10%(v/v)DMSO及胎牛血清的冻存液为阳性对照,含10%(v/v)甘油的RPMI 1640培养基冻存液为阴性对照组,含10%(v/v)甘油及0.01%(w/v)γ-PGA的RPMI 1640培养基冻存液为实验组,考察了在无DMSO、无血清细胞冻存体系中γ-聚谷氨酸对细胞的冷冻保护作用。将K562细胞以1×10^6cells/mL的密度分别悬浮在上述冻存液中,置于液氮冻存10周,检测复苏后K562的细胞复苏率、细胞形态以及复苏后细胞的扩增情况,以评判γ-聚谷氨酸在无DMSO无血清冻存液中对K562细胞的冷冻保护作用。结果显示,实验组的细胞复苏率为(83.00±3.00)%,明显高于阴性对照组的(70.33±5.51)%(p<0.05)和阳性对照组的(71.00±2.65)%(p<0.05);且实验组冻存后的细胞形态完整,冻存前后细胞的平均直径及圆度基本一致,细胞复苏后培养24h后的细胞活性为(88.83±14.29)%,明显高于阴性对照组的(67.51±5.20)%(p<0.05),与阳性对照组的(78.75±3.31)%没有显著性差异,同时复苏后细胞扩增的延滞期明显缩短。可见,在无DMSO、无血清的甘油冻存体系中添加γ-PGA可显著提高细胞的冻存效果,具有良好的实际应用价值。     

An Absence of Non-specific Immune Response towards para-Sulphonato-calix[n]arenes

The effects of para-Sulphonato-calix[4]arene, para-Sulphonato-calix[6]arene and para-Sulphonato-calix[8]arene on the activation of NADPH oxidase in neutrophils has been studied. All three molecules do not induce NADPH oxidase activation, and hence do not stimulate neutrophils. Measurement of cell viability demonstrates that these three water-soluble calix[n]arene derivatives are not cytotoxic.

采用MTT法考察了16种稀土元素在9×10-8~2×10-4mol.L-1浓度范围内对体外培养的人正常肝细胞株7701细胞和宫颈癌Hela细胞的生长的影响。结果表明,稀土对细胞生长的影响存在浓度依赖性;低浓度促进细胞增殖,高浓度抑制细胞生长;不同稀土离子对细胞作用强弱不同,稀土间存在轻重分组效应;不同细胞对稀土的响应不同,表现出稀土对正常细胞和癌细胞作用的某种选择性。Hoechst 33258标记细胞DNA,用激光共聚焦显微镜和流式细胞仪对稀土处理的肝细胞株7701进行形态学观察和DNA含量分析。结果表明,较高浓度的稀土作用后的肝细胞株7701出现了明显的凋亡特征,稀土表现出的细胞毒性作用,其本质是诱导细胞发生凋亡。

New Type High Efficient Quasi-Solid-State Ionic Liquid Electrolyte for Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells

For the fist time the preparation of a mostly solid-state high efficiem electro-conductive material comprising 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium iodide （MPII）, benzimidazole （BI）, iodine and lithium iodide was reported. In this electrolyte, BI acts as not only additives but also gelators. With its significant electrochemical properties, an overall efficiency of 3.07% was achieved under AM 1.5 （100 mW/cm^2）.     

A colloid perspective of hair cell cilia: a selective literature review

Cilia of hair cells are structurally similar to unilaminar phospholipid vesicles. The close juxtaposition of adjacent cilia is similar to the intervesicle distances found in groups of vesicles. Both cilia and vesicles operate in similar ionic environments. By comparing the cross section of cilia, which are cylinders with the cross section of vesicles, which are spherical, we can see how colloid theory can be applied to both cilia and vesicles. While vesicles have been studied as colloid particles, thus far colloid theory has not been applied to hair cell cilia. This paper presents a basic explanation of colloid theory in a simple graphic form that facilitates a colloid perspective of hair cell cilia behavior. A review of relevant hair cell cilia behavior supports the hypothesis that colloid knowledge is applicable to the problem of understanding cilia functionality in the hair cell. The electromagnetic nature of colloid forces allows for their involvement in the relatively high speed operation required of hair cells which are dealing with signals of up to 2×10⁵ Hz. A fresh look at the biophysics of the hair cell from a colloid perspective may lower the barrier to a closer understanding of active mechanical sensory transduction, amplification and adaptation, and suggest a new domain for the application of colloid theory.     

Natural products of the medicinal fungus Ganoderma lucidum: occurrence,biological activities,and pharmacological functions

Ganoderma lucidum, a fungus used in traditional Chinese medicine, produces polysaccharides and oxygenated triterpenoids with a very broad spectrum of biological activities and pharmacological functions. Among the Ganoderma triterpenoids, many pairs of C-3 alpha/beta stereoisomers and C-3/C-15 positional isomers have been identified. Biosynthetic study has indicated that the C-3alpha series of oxygenated triterpenoids is derived from the C-3beta series via an oxidation-reduction pathway. The interaction of Ganoderma triterpenoids with human platelets in the induction of aggregation and inhibition of agonist-induced aggregation and signal transduction has been elucidated. Reduction of cellular mevalonate content to a stage in which cholesterol synthesis is strongly inhibited and cell growth is marginally arrested sensitizes hepatoma cells to the oxygenated triterpenoids. A combination treatment of lovastatin and Ganoderma triterpenoids in animal studies has exhibited a potential anticancer effect.     

An NMR study of methanol diffusion in polymer electrolyte fuel cell membranes

Methanol diffusion in two polymer electrolyte membranes, Nafion 117 and BPSH 40 (a 40% disulfonated wholly aromatic polyarylene ether sulfone), was measured using a modified pulsed field gradient NMR method. This method allowed for the diffusion coefficient of methanol within the membrane to be determined while immersed in a methanol solution of known concentration. A second set of gradient pulses suppressed the signal from the solvent in solution, thus allowing the methanol within the membrane to be monitored unambiguously. Over a methanol concentration range of 0.5–8 M, methanol diffusion coefficients in Nafion 117 were found to increase from 2.9 × 10⁻⁶ to 4.0 × 10⁻⁶ cm² s⁻¹. For BPSH 40, the diffusion coefficient dropped significantly over the same concentration range, from 7.7 × 10⁻⁶ to 2.5 × 10⁻⁶cm² s⁻¹. The difference in diffusion behavior is largely related to the amount of solvent sorbed by the membranes. Increasing the methanol concentration results in an increase in solvent uptake for Nafion 117, while BPSH 40 actually excludes the solvent at higher concentrations. In contrast, diffusion of methanol measured via permeability measurements (assuming a partition coefficient of 1) was lower (1.3 × 10⁻⁶ and 6.4 × 10⁻⁷ cm² s⁻¹ for Nafion 117 and BPSH 40 respectively) and showed no concentration dependence. The differences observed between the two techniques are related to the length scale over which diffusion is monitored and the partition coefficient, or solubility, of methanol in the membranes as a function of concentration. For the permeability measurements, this length is equal to the thickness of the membrane (178 and 132 μm for Nafion 117 and BPSH 40 respectively) whereas the NMR method observes diffusion over a length of approximately 4–8 μm. Regardless of the measurement technique, BPSH 40 is a greater barrier to methanol permeability at high methanol concentrations.
