    Notes: Abstract The karyotypes of three species (N. coucang, N. intermedius, andN. pygmaeus) of genusNycticebus, collected from the southern Yunnan of China, have been studied. All individuals from three species possess 2n=50 chromosomes, and all chromosomes in their complement are biarm chromosomes. The karyotype of slow loris (N. coucang) is characterized by having a secondary constriction and Ag-NORs in the short arms of pair No. 1. The G-banding patterns of three species are very similar. Three species are found to have multiple Ag-NORs. InN. coucang, NORs were observed on five pairs (Nos. 1, 6, 9, 15, and 23) and inN. intermedius andN. pygmaeus, NORs were found on four pairs (Nos. 6, 9, 15, and 20). This finding indicates that slow lorises, as primitive primates, also have multiple NOR-bearing chromosomes. Finally, the classification of genusNycticebus by karyotype analysis is discussed, and our results suggest that there are at least two valid species, namely:N. coucang andN. pygmaeus.

    Notes: Two-dimensional (2-D) electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting and N-terminal protein microsequencing were used to characterize and identify the IgE-reactive proteins of Hevea latex that are the main cause of the latex type I allergy affecting especially health care workers and spina bifida children. This approach generated a comprehensive latex allergen database, which facilitated the integration of most of the latex allergen data presented in the literature. The major latex allergens Hev b 1, Hev b 3, Hev b 6 and Hev b 7 have been localized on our 2-D maps. Moreover, we were able to identify six previously undescribed IgE-binding latex proteins, namely enolase, superoxide dismutase, proteasome subunit C5, malate dehydrogenase, triosephosphate isomerase and endochitinase. The generated latex 2-D maps will provide valuable information to develop strategies for the isolation of the novel IgE binding proteins in order to study the frequency of sensitization among both risk groups. Detailed knowledge of all proteins involved in latex allergy will allow better diagnosis of latex allergy and to monitor the success of prevention strategies that are needed to reduce the high prevalence of latex allergy among both risk groups.

    Description: Fiber-optic sensors, especially fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors are very attractive due to their numerous advantages over traditional sensors, such as light weight, high sensitivity, cost-effectiveness, immunity to electromagnetic interference, ease of multiplexing and so on. Therefore, fiber-optic sensors have been intensively studied during the last several decades. Nowadays, with the development of novel fiber technology, more and more newly invented fiber technologies bring better and superior performance to fiber-optic sensing networks. In this paper, the applications of some advanced photonic technologies including fiber lasers and microwave photonic technologies for fiber sensing applications are reviewed. FBG interrogations based on several kinds of fiber lasers, especially the novel Fourier domain mode locking fiber laser, have been introduced; for the application of microwave photonic technology, examples of microwave photonic filtering utilized as a FBG sensing interrogator and microwave signal generation acting as a transversal loading sensor have been given. Both theoretical analysis and experimental demonstrations have been carried out. The comparison of these advanced photonic technologies for the applications of fiber sensing is carried out and important issues related to the applications have been addressed and the suitable and potential application examples have also been discussed in this paper.

    Description: Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) is known to participate in many diseases but its roles in alcoholic liver injury remain unknown. In the present study, we aim to explore the roles of Cav-1 in protecting hepatocytes from ethanol-mediated nitrosative injury. We hypothesized that Cav-1 could attenuate ethanol-mediated nitrosative stress and liver damage through regulating EGFR/STAT3/iNOS signaling cascades. Ethanol-fed mice had time- and dose-dependent increases of Cav-1 in serum and liver with peak increase at 12 hrs. Compared with wild-type mice, Cav-1 deficiency mice revealed higher expression of iNOS, higher levels of nitrate/nitrite and peroxynitrite, and had more serious liver damage accompanied with higher levels of cleaved caspase 3 and apoptotic cell death in liver and higher levels of ALT and AST in serum. Furthermore, the results revealed that the ethanol-mediated Cav-1 increase was in an ERK-dependent manner, and Cav-1 protected hepatocytes from ethanol-mediated apoptosis via inhibiting iNOS activity and regulating EGFR and STAT3 signaling cascades. In agreement with these findings, clinical trials on human subjects revealed that serum Cav-1 level was time-dependently elevated and peak concentration was observed at 12 hrs after binge drinking. Alcohol-induced liver lesions were negatively correlated with Cav-1 level but positively correlated with nitrate/nitrite level in the serum of binge drinkers. These results, when taken together, suggest that Cav-1 could be a cellular defense protein against alcoholic hepatic injury through inhibiting reactive nitrogen species and regulating EGFR/STAT3/iNOS signaling cascades.

    Description: Variations in water level profoundly affect functional stability of freshwater ecosystems, as well as macrophyte growth and reproduction. Although the trade-off between allocation to clonal and sexual reproduction in clonal plants can be influenced by a variety of environmental factors, whether variations of reproductive allocation (RA) in response to different environments are driven only by a size-dependent effect (apparent plasticity) or whether RA can also change independently of plant size (true plasticity) is uncertain. We conducted an experiment in nine outdoor mesocosms (6400 L) to investigate the response of clonal and sexual reproduction and vegetative growth of a perennial submerged macrophyte Vallisneria spinulosa at water depths of 50, 100, or 150 cm. We evaluated size-dependent and size-independent effects of water depth on sexual and clonal RA. Deep water reduced vegetative size and sexual output (mass of fruits produced), but increased tuber production of V. spinulosa . There was an apparent trade-off between reproductive modes in terms of biomass investment; plants in deep water allocated more resources into clonal propagation and reduced investment in sexual reproduction compared to plants in shallow or intermediate water. Slopes of allometric relationships (sexual vs. vegetative biomass and clonal vs. vegetative biomass) were significantly affected by water depth. Shifts in sexual RA in response to varying water depths were largely size-dependent, but there were also size-independent effects. In contrast, size-independent effects were more important than effects of size changes in determining clonal RA. We concluded that V. spinulosa adapted to a water-depth gradient by plastic trade-offs between clonal propagation and sexual reproduction. Furthermore, a size-independent effect on RA suggests a flexible reproductive strategy that could be critical for plant performance in changing aquatic environments.
