γ 射线引发 VAc 乳液聚合以制备白乳胶的动力学及工艺条件研究

研究了ＶＡｃ的辐射乳液聚合动力学，并对其聚合工艺条件作了初步探索。得出ＶＡｃ乳液在进行辐射聚合时，成核期结束较早（转化率在１０％以下），有相当长的恒速期存在。乳胶粒子直径在０．５～３μｍ之间，比一般的乳液聚合乳胶粒子要大。同时从动力学数据还可以看出几种成核机理（胶束成核，水相成核和液滴成核）同时存在，由此对试验条件提出了相应的要求。     

Mast cell activation and migration to lymph nodes during induction of an immune response in mice

The mast cell response in skin and lymph nodes was examined during the sensitization phase of dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced contact hypersensitivity in mice. Degranulation of 62% of mast cells in DNFB-exposed skin was evident within 30 min of a dual application of DNFB, reaching a peak of 77% at 24 h, and persisting in 42% after 5 d. Abundant expression of macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP)-1alpha and MIP-1beta mRNAs and proteins was observed in keratinocytes, and mast cell degranulation was significantly inhibited after administration of neutralizing antibodies to MIP-1alpha, but not MIP-1beta. During DNFB sensitization, the mast cell density in the skin decreased by half, concurrent with a fivefold expansion of mast cell numbers in draining lymph nodes. Fluorescent-labeled mast cells injected into the skin appeared in draining lymph nodes after application of DNFB, followed by subsequent migration to the spleen. In lymph nodes, mast cells were an abundant and predominant source of MIP-1beta, neutralization of which partially inhibited T lymphocyte recruitment. These results indicate that mast cells contribute to the induction of this primary immune response by activation at and migration from the site of antigen encounter to draining lymph nodes, wherein they mediate T lymphocyte recruitment by production of MIP-1beta.

Inhibition of microtubule assembly in tumor cells by 3-bromoacetylamino benzoylurea, a new cancericidal compound

We have synthesized a new compound, 3-bromoacetylamino benzoylurea (3-BAABU), which showed strong cancericidal activity by inducing irreversible mitotic arrest and subsequently apoptosis in human T cell leukemic cells (CEM), human biphenotypic leukemic cells (SP), a human prostate cancer cell line (PC-3), murine melanoma cells (B-16), and murine lymphoma/leukemia cells (EL4) in vitro with an ID50 in the range of 0.013-0.07 microg/ml (0.04-0.22 microM). Treatment of tumor cells for 12-24 h with 3-BAABU resulted in mitotic arrest at prometaphase/metaphase/anaphase, with separation and dispersion of chromosomes and with the absence of mitotic spindle apparatus in cytoplasm. Treatment with 3-BAABU had no cytotoxic and mitotic blocking effect in normal human lymphocytes, proliferating fibroblast cells (3T3), or proliferating myocardial cells (MOT). Cell cycle analyses showed that most treated leukemic cells accumulated at M phase 12 h after treatment. By the end of 48 h of treatment, the cells underwent apoptosis with DNA fragmentation. 3-BAABU inhibited the assembly of microtubules from tubulin but did not interfere with the disassembly of microtubules. The presence and the position of bromine and urea groups on the benzoic ring are the determining factors for its inhibition of microtubule assembly. Replacing bromine with chlorine yielded much less mitotic blocking activity and increased the ID50 40-fold. Substitution of the urea group with ethyl ester abrogated the activity of blocking mitosis but induced apoptosis. Moving the bromoacetylamino group from the 3-position to the 4-position removed blocking activity for mitosis but induced necrosis. These results suggest that 3-BAABU possesses a unique and functional structure and is a potential agent for cancer chemotherapy.     

The DEAH-box splicing factor Prp16 unwinds RNA duplexes in vitro

BACKGROUND: During pre-mRNA splicing, dynamic rearrangement of RNA secondary structure within the spliceosome is crucial for intron recognition and formation of the catalytic core. Splicing factors belonging to the DExD/DExH-box family of RNA-dependent ATPases are thought to have a central role in directing these rearrangements by unwinding RNA helices. Proof of this hypothesis has, however, been conspicuously lacking. RESULTS: Prp16 is a DEAH-box protein that functions in the second step of splicing in vitro. Using various RNA duplexes as substrate, we have shown that Prp16 has an ATP-dependent RNA unwinding activity. This activity is independent of sequence in either the single-stranded or duplexed regions of the RNA substrate. A mutation (prp16-1) near the ATP-binding motif of Prp16 inhibits both the RNA-dependent ATPase activity and the ATP-dependent RNA unwinding activity. CONCLUSIONS: Our findings provide strong biochemical evidence that Prp16 can disrupt a duplexed RNA structure on the spliceosome. Because the purified protein lacks sequence specificity in unwinding RNA duplexes, targeting of the unwinding activity of Prp16 in the spliceosome is likely to be determined by other interacting protein factors. The demonstration of unwinding activity will also help our understanding of how the fidelity of branchpoint recognition is controlled by Prp16.
