Microbiology 1992;0(04):-
The interaction of Klebsiella mytoca NG13/pMC73A with Eucalyptus were studied. The results showed that the root surface and even the inner cortex of Eucalyptus were colonized by K. oxytoca. The K. oxytoca was reisolated from rhizosphere, root surface and inner root of inoculated Eucalyptus. The inoculation with K. oxytoca stimulated the excretion of Eucalyptus root and affected the contents of amino acids, carbohydrates, phytohormones of root exudates. The seedlings of Eucalyptusto to inoculation with K. oxytoca increased growth, total dry matter and N content by 29.81% - 100.40% after 3 months in comparinson to the uninoculated seedlings.

The genetic indentification of 16S rDNA or ITS, capability of phosphate-solubilization and pH of medium, and optimization of medium of some microorganism isolated from mangrove were investigated in this study. The result showed that the fungi normally had much higher capacity to dissolve the inorganic phosphate than the bacteria, the capacity of the fungi was closely correlated to the pH of medium, but the relationship was weak for the bacteria. It was illustrated by single factor experiments that the optimal carbon and nitrogen sources were maltose and urea respectively. The orthogonal design was employed in testing the optimum composition of medium composed of 5 g/L maltose, 0.05 g/L urea, 5 g/L NaCl, pH 5. In this optimal medium, the effectively enrichment of bacteria could reach up to 6.06?109 CFU/mL under 30?C for 48 hours cultivation.

Objective To investigate the neuroprotective effect of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) combined with behavior training on the learning and memory abilities of cerebral ischemic injury in rats. Methods 96 Wistar rats, 2 months old, were divided as sham group (group A), model group (group B), G-CSF group (group C) and G-CSF+training group (group D). Modified middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was used to establish a ischemia 2 h/reperfusion 24 h model to all the rats, except sham group. 6 rats were selected in each group 1, 2, 4 and 8 weeks after successfully modeled, respectively. The abilities of learning and memory were detected with the latency of shuttle test video analysis system. The pathology of the hippocampus and the expression of nerve growth factor (NGF) and G-CSF were observed with HE and immunohistochemistry staining, respectively. Results The expression of NGF and G-CSF increased in group B transiently, and increased more and longer in the group C and D, especially in group D, as the time passed (P<0.05). The latency of shuttle test increased in group B, C and D, and gently decreased as the time passed, and the decrease more to less were group D, C and B (P<0.05).Conclusion The neuroprotective effects of G-CSF combined with behavior training are strengthened and long term beneficial than G-CSF alone.

Objective:To design and construct the replication-deficient recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF which can silence the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) by RNA interference and verified its function. Methods:A specific sequence, which was verified to be able to silence CTGF gene with high efficiency, was cloned into pSES-HUS vector to produce the shuttle plasmid pSES-siCTGF. The plasmid after Pme Ⅰ linearization was cotransduced with pAdEasy into BJ5183 E.coli strains to construct recombinant vector Ad-siCTGF. After linearization treatment with Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion Ad-siCTGF was transfected into HEK293 cells via liposome mediation. The recombinant adenovirus was packaged. The titer of the Ad-siCTGF was increased after three times of cross-infection. 4T1 cells were infected with the adenovirus. The silencing efficiency was tested by real-time fluorescence quantitative (RFQ)-PCR and Western blotting.Results:Pac Ⅰ enzyme digestion electrophoresis indentified that recombinant adenovirus was successfully constructed. The titer of the recombinant adenovirus Ad-siCTGF was 2.6×10~(10) pfu/mL after amplification and purification. The CTGF mRNA and protein expression in 4T1 cells were decreased by 36.27% and 31.56%, respectively, compared with the control groups.Conclusion:The recombinant adenovirus which can silence the expression of CTGF was successfully constructed. It laid a good foundation for further investigation of the action mechanism of CTGF in tumor cells.

ObjectiveTo determine the changes in tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-lβ (IL-1β)expression after bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) transplantation in a rat pup model of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) and discuss the anti-inflammatory mechanism of BMSCs transplantation in the repair of HIBD.MethodsThree-day-old Sprague-Dawley rat pups were randomly divided into three groups: the transplantation group, in which a model of HIBD was established by ligation of left common carotid artery and hypoxia for two hours followed by the injection of 2μl BMSCs (2×105 cells) into the lateral ventricle; the HIBD model group, in which HIBD model was established and 2μl phosphate saline buffer was injected into the lateral ventricle; and the sham-operation group, in which no intervention was given. Histological changes in the brain were detected by HE staining and the number of cells positive for ectodermal dysplasia-1 (ED-1) staining, which is a specific marker for activated microglia, was detected by immunohistochemistry. The protein and mRNA levels of TNF-α and IL-1β were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. One-way analysis of variance and LSD test were applied for statistical analysis.ResultsHE staining showed that cellular edema and necrocytosis was not observed in cerebral white matter on the 7th post-transplantation day in the transplantation group, but observed in the HIBD model group. In the sham-operation group, cerebral white matter was normal. The number of ED-1 positive cells in the transplantation group (26.3±2.5) was significantly lower than that in the HIBD model group (33.0±4.0), but higher than that in the sham-operation group (2.3±0.6) (LSD test, allP<0.05). The contents of TNF-α and IL-1β both in the transplantation group and the HIBD model group increased and peaked 24 h after transplantation, then gradually decreased, but did not reach normal levels (sham-operation group) on the 7th day. The contents of TNF-α and IL-1β in brain tissue in the HIBD model group [TNF-α: (3.03±0.10), (5.57±0.19), (7.78±0.19), (4.39±0.20), (2.70±019)μg/L; IL-1β:(293.1±7.9), (369.8±17.5), (303.6±23.9), (226.7±21.6), (183.9±33.4) ng/L] were significantly higher than those in the transplantation group [TNF-α: (2.84±0.20), (3.80±0.14), (4.63±0.17), (3.56±0.03), (1.99± 0.17)μg/L; IL-1β: (267.6±14.5), (323.5±26.9), (211.2±24.9), (140.8±7.4), (100.2±8.3) ng/L] at 6, 12, 24, 48 h and 7 days after BMSCs transplantation, respectively. The contents of TNF-α and IL-1β in the sham-operation group [TNF-α:(1.03±0.02), (1.13±0.03), (1.05±0.02), (1.09±0.02), (1.07±0.02)μg/L; IL-1β:(63.6±13.0), (64.0±11.3), (60.8±10.0), (67.9±13.5), (66.2±11.7) ng/L] were significantly lower than those in the transplantation group and HIBD model group (LSD test, allP<0.05). TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA at 24 h after transplantation in the HIBD model group (TNF-α: 2.69±0.43; IL-1β: 3.07±0.38) were significantly higher than those in the transplantation group (TNF-α: 1.61±0.29; IL-1β: 1.08±0.11) and those in the sham-operation group (TNF-α: 0.94±0.16; IL-1β: 1.08±0.11) (LSD test, allP<0.05).ConclusionsBMSCs may play an important role in the recovery of preterm HIBD and the mechanism may involve the inhibition of microglia activation and down-regulation of the expression of inflammatory factors.
