甘油浓度对蓝狐精子深低温冷冻保存的影响及冻融前后精子的超微结构

人工采取8只优质芬兰雄性蓝狐的精液,分别利用2％、4％、6％和8％甘油浓度的卵黄-Tris-果糖-柠檬酸钠稀释液进行稀释,制成细管冻精。在冻融后0、O．5、2、4、6h检测4种浓度组的精子运动度、质膜完整率、顶体完整率;并利用透射电镜观察冻融前后精子的超微结构变化。冻融后0h,4％甘油浓度组冻融精子的运动度、质膜完整率、顶体的完整率均最高(分别为41．8％、43．6％、48．4％),2％浓度组最低(分别为24．5％、27．6％、31．7％);随着检测时间延长,2％与4％组的精子特性差异显著,但2％、6％、8％3个组间差异不显著;6h时各组间精子的运动度均不超过10％,最高质膜完整率和顶体完整率分别为11．8％、12．7％。说明蓝狐精液稀释剂中甘油的适宜浓度应为4％,冻融后精子的活力维持时间较短。蓝狐精子冻融过程中质膜极易发生膨胀或断裂、顶体囊泡化或溃散,而质膜和顶体丢失现象较少。     

秦岭大熊猫精液的细管冷冻保存

2008年3月1日至4月27日和2009年3月3日至5月1日,在陕西省珍稀野生动物抢救饲养研究中心对处于繁殖期内的4只雄性秦岭大熊猫(Ailuropoda melanoleuca qinlingensis)精液进行了细管冻精实验。比较组成不同的4种稀释液:葡萄糖-果糖-柠檬酸三钠-卵黄-甘油-双抗(稀释液1)、葡萄糖-蔗糖-柠檬酸三钠-卵黄-甘油-双抗(稀释液2)、葡萄糖-柠檬酸三钠-卵黄-甘油-双抗(稀释液3)和美国进口的TEST(加入3.5%甘油),以及直接降温平衡法(方法 1)与逐级降温平衡法(方法 2)2种冷冻保存操作方法,对秦岭大熊猫精液进行细管冷冻保存后精子活力和顶体完整率的影响。结果表明:稀释液1的精子活力为46.25%±11.67%,顶体完整率为80.75%±7.89%,TEST的精子活力为48.75%±8.54%,顶体完整率为84.50%±7.59%,两者的精子活力和顶体完整率均无明显差异(P0.05),但是都明显高于稀释液2(P﹤0.01)和稀释液3(P﹤0.01);采用方法 1冷冻保存秦岭大熊猫精液,解冻后精子的活力和顶体完整率分别为45.67%±10.54%和81.37%±8.42%,都显著高于方法 2(P﹤0.01);方法 1解冻后畸形率为23.50%±3.51%,明显低于方法 2(P﹤0.01)。经比较确定,方法 1(用稀释液1)是一种较好的细管冷冻保存秦岭大熊猫精液的方法。     

淫羊藿多糖对弱精症精子冷冻保存效果的影响

常用的冷冻保护剂对于弱精症精子冻融效果欠佳,本实验通过在人精子冷冻保护液中添加淫羊藿多糖(EPS),研究其对冻融过程中精子活力及精子功能的影响。选择弱精症精液15例,液化后的精液样本分别与甘油-卵黄-柠檬酸盐(GEYC)冷冻保护液或含有EPS冷冻保护液混匀冷冻。检测其精子的活力、存活率以及精子形态、丙二醛(MDA)以及活性氧(ROS)的含量,精子核碎裂指数(DFI),精子顶体反应率(AR),并通过透射电镜观察精子微观结构的变化。添加EPS后精子MDA和ROS水平明显降低,含有3 mg/mL EPS的冷冻组抗氧化性明显优于其他组(P0.05);含有EPS的冷冻组复苏后的存活率以及精子头部正常形态率都明显高于未添加组,但是两组间的精子前向运动PR无显著差异;此外,添加EPS的冷冻组精子DFI下降显著,AR明显升高;电镜观察精子头部显微结构显示,添加EPS组的精子在质膜以及顶体膜完整性上明显优于未添加组。结果提示,在精液冷冻保护液中添加EPS可降低精子活性氧的水平,保护精子顶体结构和功能,从而改善解冻后精子顶体功能和精子核的完整性。     

几种哺乳动物精子顶体膜囊泡形成的研究

在猪、绵羊、地鼠这几种哺乳动物的精子体外获能后,在顶体反应的超显微结构中观察到:精子顶体膜囊泡化呈现多种形态,但囊泡都是由精子顶体的双层外膜多位点自我融合而形成的,质膜并不参与囊泡化,这一结果与前人报道的不同。     

不同甘油浓度与平衡时间对食蟹猴精液冷冻效果的影响

探讨了不同甘油浓度(3%、5%、7%、11%)和不同平衡时间(30、60、90、120min)对食蟹猴(Macaca fascicularis)精液冷冻效果的影响,以建立和优化食蟹猴精液冷冻的程序。参照TTE稀释液成分组成改良型TTE,冷冻前和解冻后均检测精子的活力、畸形率、质膜完整性、顶体完整率。结果显示,平衡时间为30min时精子的冷冻解冻后活力、复苏率均高于平衡时间90min和120min组,差异显著(P<0.05),比60min组稍好;甘油浓度为3%、5%组的精子冷冻解冻后活力及复苏率均高于甘油浓度11%组,差异显著(P<0.05),比7%组好;不同甘油浓度各组间以及不同平衡时间各组间畸形率、质膜完整性、顶体完整率差异不显著(P<0.05)。由此得出如下结论,在食蟹猴精液冷冻中,在改良TTE中加入3%~5%的甘油且平衡30min可以获得较好效果,精子冻后活率和复苏率达到45%和62%。

冷冻—解冻猪精子的超微结构观察

自从50年代初Polge发现甘油有卓越的防冻作用以后,动物精液冷冻技术发展很快。现在,奶牛和羊冷冻精液已广泛应用于人工授精和体外受精中,效果与鲜精接近,而猪冷冻精液在人工授精后虽也能产仔,但妊娠率与每窝产仔数均下降(Johnson等,1981);体外受精率可达85％以上,但精子浓度需用5—6×10_7精子/ml,比鲜精用量提高25—100倍(Wang等,1991)。顶体形态正常精子的减少是造成冷冻精液受精率低的重要原因之一(Pursel,1979),用光镜不能清楚地观察顶体的形态变化,但运用电镜技术对猪冷冻-解冻精子的顶体形态的超微结构研究报道不多(Courtens等,1985;Hashizume,1990)。针对猪冷冻—解冻精子体内/体外受精能力降低的问题,我们用透射电镜对冷冻的猪精子解冻0 h及4 h后精子顶体与头部质膜的超微结构变化进行了观察。     

圈养黑熊精液的冷冻保存

将采自23 头成年圈养黑熊的精液,分别用3 种稀释液(Ⅰ:Tris - 乳- 果- 卵;Ⅱ:柠- 葡- 蔗- 卵;Ⅲ:Tris - 柠- 果- 葡- 卵)稀释并在4℃ 下保存,通过检测精液在不同稀释液稀释条件下的保存时间,筛选出最适稀释液用于精液的冷冻保存;从精液解冻后精子的活率、活力、畸形率、顶体完整率4 个指标,分别从3种冷冻保护剂(甘油3%、3.5% 、4% )、两种冷冻方法(两步冷冻法和自动冷冻法)两个方面进行了比较试验。结果表明:精子活力在0.3 以上时,稀释液Ⅲ保存时间为175.42 ± 3.04 h,显著高于稀释液Ⅰ和稀释液Ⅱ(P ﹤0.01),稀释液Ⅱ保存时间也明显高于稀释液Ⅰ (P ﹤0.01);含3.5% 甘油浓度的稀释液解冻后精子活率(41.75 ± 3.46% )、活力(32.63 ±5.27% )和顶体完整率(85.62 ± 4.58% )显著高于其他两组(P ﹤0.01),并且精子畸形率(29.32 ± 8.22% )明显低于其他两组(35.95 ± 8.04% ,36.07 ±7.72% )(P ﹤0.01);采用自动冷冻法冷冻保存圈养黑熊精液,解冻后精子活率、活力和顶体完整率分别为41.75 ±3.46% 、32.63 ± 5.27%和85.62 ±4.58% ,都明显高于两步冷冻法(P ﹤0.01);解冻后畸形率为29.32 ± 8.22% ,明显低于两步冷冻法(P ﹤0.01)。     

不同渗透压的稀释液对猕猴精子低温冷冻保存的影响

以稀释液TTE(382mOsm/kg)为对照,研究了5种渗透压(688、389、329、166、43mOsm/kg)的TEST稀释液(TEST、mTEST1、mTEST2、mTEST3、mTEST4)在冷冻过程中对猕猴精子功能的影响。精液一步稀释于含甘油的防冻液中,甘油的终浓度为5%(v/v)。在冷冻前后分别检测精子的运动度和质膜完整性,后者用Hoechst33342和碘化丙锭双色标记流式细胞术分析。结果表明:冷冻之前,与鲜精相比,用TEST和mTEST4稀释的精子运动度和质膜完整性显著降低(P<0·001),其余组中除mTEST2稀释的精子质膜完整性显著降低(P<0·05)外,精子运动度无差异;冷冻复苏后,TTE、mTEST3和mTEST1冻存精子的运动度和质膜完整性最高,其次是mTEST2,TEST和mTEST4冷冻效果最差(P<0·05)。提示等渗、适当高渗或低渗的稀释液适合猕猴精子的冷冻保存;对精子产生高渗毒害作用是导致猕猴精子用TEST冷冻存活率低的主要原因。

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.     

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.

The effects of glutamine of the maintenance of embryogenic cultures of Cryptomeria japonica

Summary Embryogenic tissues of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) were induced on a modified Campbell and Durzan (CD) medium containing 1 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 600 mg l⁻¹ glutamine, and subcultured in the medium of the same composition for over 1 yr. This resulted in a mixed culture of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells. When embryogenic cells were isolated and cultured independently, their capacity to form embryogenic aggregates was lost. Thus, the non-embryogenic cells present within a mixed culture system were essential to the formation of embryogenic aggregates. When embryogenic tissues were isolated and cultured independently on a high glutamine-containing (2400 mg l⁻¹) medium, dry weights and endogenous levels of glutamine increased, and the tissue could generate a large number of embryogenic aggregates. Amino acid analysis of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells from the maintenance culture indicated a higher level of glutamine was present in the latter. The high endogenous level of glutamine in the non-embryogenic portion of mixed cell masses may be the supplier of glutamine for maintaining the embryogenic property of the tissues.     

Specificity of action of piperidylcholine derivatives as substrates of cholinesterases of various origin

The review deals with study of enzymologic properties of a novel highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate, N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium iodomethylate (“piperidylcholine”), and its 30 derivatives that were tested as effectors of cholinesterases of mammals and various species of Pacific squids. It was proven for the first time that responsible for specificity of action was structure of cyclic ammonium grouping of the alcohol part of molecule of the ester substrate. Analysis of specificity is performed based on enzymatic hydrolysis parameters—activity of catalytic center of cholinesterases and bimolecular constant of the reaction rate that are determined at optimal and low substrate concentrations. Among the specially synthesized group of thioester compounds there is revealed one more highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate—N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium.     

Interconnection of parameters of regulation system of lipid peroxidation and of morphophysiological parameters of mouse liver

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.
