谷胱甘肽S转移酶π在人肺癌组织的表达

采用ＡＢＣ免疫组织化学染色法检测３０例肺癌（ＬＣ），３例良性肺部疾病（ＢＰＤ）和正常人（ＮＣ）肺组织中ＧＳＴ－π的表达。结果显示ＧＳＴ－π在肺癌组织阳性率为６６．７％，其中肺鳞癌，肺腺癌阳性率分别为８７．５％和６６．７％；大细胞癌和小细胞未分化癌（ＳＣＬＣ）均呈阴性染色：１０％癌旁正常肺组织呈弱阳性表达，正常及良性疾病肺组织均呈阴性势色。腺癌的表达与其不分化程度有关即高分化高表达。提示ＧＳＴ－π水平变化对非小细胞肺癌特别是肺鳞癌，腺癌有价值的标记物。

Screening for Glyphosate Resistant Wild Soybean(Glycine soja) and Study on Its Physiological Mechanisms of Resistance

[Objective] This study aimed to preliminarily determine the physiological mechanism of glyphosate resistance produced in wild soybean（Glycine soja） and further provide a basis for the breeding of glyphosate-resistant soybean. [Method] First,a screening for glyphosate resistant varieties among sixty-seven wild soybean materials was done in a field trial; subsequently, physiological indexes of the screened resistant variety ZYD0685 and the sensitive variety ZYD0790 were studied. [Result]At the glyphosate dose of 1.23 kg a.i/hm2, glyphoaste resistance varied greatly among different wild soybean materials, with the highest survival rate of 87% and83% occurring in ZYD0685 and ZYD2405, respectively, and that of another seven accessions ranged from 2.7% to 38%, and all the remaining fifty-eight soybean materials died. After treatment with glyphoaste at different doses, there were no significant differences in chlorophyll content and shikimate content in the resistant ZYD0685, but there was an evident increase in the activity of gultathione-S-transferases（GSTs）; while in the sensitive ZYD0790, the content of shikimic acid increased significantly, and chlorophyll content decreased significantly, and GSTs activity revealed a slight change. [Conclusion] Therefore, lowering the amount of accumulated shikimic acid is the major physiological response to glyphosate in wild soybean.

Effects of dietary menadione on the activity of antioxidant enzymes in abalone, Haliotis discus hannai Ino

A 240-day growth experiment in a re-circulating water system was conducted to investigate the effects of dietary menadione on the growth and antioxidant responses of abalone Haliotis discus hannai Ino. Triplicate groups of juvenile abalone (initial weight: 1.19 ± 0.01 g; shell length: 19.23 ± 0.01 mm) were fed to satiation with 3 semi-purified diets containing 0, 10, and 1 000 mg menadione sodium bisulfite (MSB)/kg, respectively. Results show that there were no significant differences in the rate of weight gain or in the daily increment in shell length of abalone among different treatments. Activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GPX), glutathione S-transferase (GST) and glutathione reductase (GR) in viscera were significantly decreased with dietary menadione. However, activities of these enzymes except for GPX in muscle were increased. Therefore, antioxidant responses of abalone were increased in muscle and decreased in viscera by dietary menadione.

Biomarker responses in the bivalve Chlamys farreri to the water-soluble fraction of crude oil

To investigate the effect of the water soluble fraction of crude oil(WSF) on marine bivalves, the scallop C hlamys farreri was exposed to three WSF concentrations(0.18 mg/L, 0.32 mg/L, and 0.51 mg/L, respectively) in seawater. Petroleum hydrocarbon contents in scallops and a suite of enzymes [7-Ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase(EROD), aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase(AHH), glutathione S-transferase(GST), and glutathione peroxidase(GPx)] in gills and digestive glands were monitored over 10 days. The results revealed that WSF affected the activity of the four enzymes in the gills and digestive glands. EROD activity in the gills was significantly induced in most individuals of the three test groups, while in the digestive gland it was significantly induced in the low-concentration group within 4 days but was inhibited in the middle- and high-concentration groups on days 1, 4, and 10. AHH activity in the gills of all treatment groups was significantly induced on day 1. In the digestive gland, AHH activity was induced in most individuals from the treatment groups. In all treatment groups, GST activity was significantly inhibited from days 2 to 10 in the gills and was induced after day 4 in the digestive gland. GPx activity in the gills was significantly inhibited throughout the exposure period in all treatment groups. There was no overall significant difference in GPx activity in the digestive gland between the control and treatment groups. Our results also revealed that petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations in the tissues increased linearly with exposure time. EROD activity in the digestive gland and GST and GPx activity in the gill tissue were negatively correlated with petroleum hydrocarbon body burden. These enzymes play important roles in detoxification and can act as potential biomarkers for monitoring petroleum hydrocarbon contaminants in the marine environment.
